[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0025] A cap testing device, such as Figures 1-8 As shown, the device includes a frame 1, a vision acquisition component 2, a material tray 3, a guide frame 4, a length detection component 6, and a servo motor 7. The guide frame 4 is mounted on the frame 1 and has a guide cavity that cooperates with the material tray 3. An opening 41 is provided at the bottom of the guide frame 4. Several material slots 31 are evenly spaced on the side of the material tray 3. The material tray 3 is placed in the guide cavity and connected to the servo motor 7. The servo motor 7 drives the material tray 3 to rotate, conveying the caps to the vision acquisition component 2 and the length detection component 6. The vision acquisition component 2 is used to acquire images of the caps, and the length detection component 6 is used to acquire the length of the caps.

[0026] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-8 As shown, the feeding position of the cap, the vision acquisition component 2, and the length detection component 6 are respectively set at the 9 o'clock, 12 o'clock, and 3 o'clock positions. The discharge pipe of the vibratory feeder is connected to the feeding position of the cap, and the cap is fed into the material trough 31 through the vibratory feeder. The material tray 3 is driven to rotate by the servo motor 7. When the cap moves to the vision acquisition component 2, the vision acquisition component 2 acquires an image of the cap. The detection principle is that the image information is a projected view. The computer identifies the distance of the protrusion outside the center circle and sets a threshold. If it is within the range, it is qualified; otherwise, it is unqualified. Then the cap moves to the length detection component 6 for length detection. If the detection result is within the set range, it is qualified; otherwise, it is unqualified. The material tray 3 continues to rotate, and the cap falls from the opening 41.

[0027] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-8As shown, the cross-section of the material trough 31 is U-shaped. The material trough 31 cooperates with the guide frame 4 to close the side opening of the material trough 31, and the sealing cap is inserted from the end of the material trough 31. When the material trough 31 rotates to the opening 41, since there is no obstruction from the guide frame 4, the sealing cap falls from the side opening of the material trough 31.

[0028] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-8 As shown, a material guide plate 5 is provided on the material guide frame 4, and a first inclined surface 53 is provided on the material guide plate 5. The sealing cap is guided into the material trough 31 through the first inclined surface 53.

[0029] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-8 As shown, the material handling plate 5 is fixed to the guide frame 4 via an adjusting plate 51, and the adjusting plate 51 is provided with a waist-shaped hole 52. Preferably, two waist-shaped holes 52 are arranged in parallel.

[0030] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-8 As shown, an adjustment component 9 is provided at the tail of the material trough 31 of the material tray 3. The adjustment component 9 includes a screw 91 and a tail plate 92. The screw 91 is threaded into the material tray 3, and the tail plate 92 is located at the end of the screw 91. By rotating the screw 91, the position of the tail plate 92 is adjusted axially, thereby meeting the requirements for cap testing of different lengths.

[0031] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-8 As shown, the visual acquisition component 2 includes a camera 21, a lead screw slide 22, and a fill light 23. The camera 21 and the fill light 23 are mounted on the machine base 1 via the lead screw slide 22, and the height and position of the camera 21 and the fill light 23 are adjusted using the lead screw slide 22.

[0032] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-8 As shown, the length detection component 6 includes a displacement sensor 61 and a contact block 62. The displacement sensor 61 is mounted on the guide frame 4, and the contact block 62 is connected to the displacement sensor 61. A guide section 621 and a measuring section 622 are continuously arranged on the contact block 62. The guide section 621 is an inclined surface, and the measuring section 622 is a flat surface. During detection, the material tray 3 rotates to move the cap towards the contact block 62. After passing through the guide section 621, the cap moves, pushing the contact block 62. When the cap is released from the measuring section 622, the displacement data of the displacement sensor 61 is collected, and the length of the cap is then determined.

[0033] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-8As shown, it also includes a material sorting component 8, which sorts and stores qualified and unqualified caps. The material sorting component 8 includes a first guide pipe 81, a second guide pipe 82, a baffle plate 83, and a cylinder 84. The first and second guide pipes 81 and 82 are mounted on the frame 1, with their upper ends positioned at the opening 41 of the guide frame 4. The baffle plate 83 is mounted on the cylinder 84, which drives the baffle plate 83 to move horizontally, thus blocking part of the opening 41. Specifically, when the cylinder 84 drives the baffle plate 83 to extend, it blocks a portion of the opening 41, aiming to block the material trough 31 to ensure the caps can pass through the current position. The servo motor 6 drives the material tray 3 to continue rotating until the next stop, where there is no obstruction, and the caps fall from that point into the first guide pipe 81. In this embodiment, the first guide tube 81 is used to guide unqualified caps, and the second guide tube 82 is used to guide qualified caps, thus achieving classified storage of caps. When a cap is qualified, the cylinder 84 drives the baffle plate 83 to retract. At this time, the baffle plate 83 does not block the opening. When the cap moves to the opening 41, it immediately falls into the second guide tube 82. According to the detection structure, the cylinder 84 controls the horizontal movement of the baffle plate 83, thereby switching the caps to fall into the first guide tube 81 and the second guide tube 82.

[0034] When using this invention, as Figures 1-8 As shown, the inlet end of the cap is connected to a vibratory feeder. The vibratory feeder arranges the caps and feeds them into the material trough 31. The position of the tail plate 92 is adjusted according to the cap length, so that one end of the cap is pressed against the tail plate 92 while the other end protrudes from the other end of the material trough 31. The servo motor 7 drives the material tray 3 to rotate. First, the material guide plate 5 inserts the caps into the material trough 31, and then pushes them further into the trough 31 along the first inclined surface 53 of the material guide plate 5. The material tray 3 continues to rotate. When it moves to the vision inspection component 2, an image is acquired, and the computer determines whether it is qualified. Then it rotates to the length detection component 6, where the contact block 62 pushes the displacement sensor 61 to acquire the displacement, and the cap length is calculated. Finally, it rotates to the opening. According to the detection structure, the cylinder 84 controls the baffle plate 83 to extend or retract, sending qualified caps into the second guide pipe 82 and unqualified caps into the first guide pipe 81. This completes the inspection of one cap.

[0035] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Any modifications or equivalent substitutions made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope thereof should be covered within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
