Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a mobile vehicle exterior inspection mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Automotive exterior inspection, as the name suggests, is an organization that inspects the exterior of vehicles. This inspection is required during both vehicle production and maintenance. The inspection includes checking the vehicle's exterior and interior. The vehicle body should be clean and straight, without cracks, obvious rust, or deformation. Windows should be intact and complete. The interior should be clean and free of clutter. The vehicle model, brand, serial number, and the model, serial number, and license plate number of the body and engine should be checked. The vehicle exterior should be clean, all parts should be intact, connections should be tight, and there should be no damage. The vehicle body should be straight. With the engine off and the vehicle parked, there should be no obvious water leakage from the radiator, water pump, cylinder block, cylinder head, heater, and all connecting parts. The steering wheel should turn smoothly and easily without any resistance. During steering, the wheels should not interfere with other components. The braking system should be durable and not damaged by vibration or impact. Lights should be securely installed and in good working order; all light switches should be securely installed and operate smoothly. The tires used on the vehicle should be appropriate for its maximum design speed.
[0003] The main focus of vehicle exterior inspection is chassis inspection. However, since the chassis is located at the bottom of the car, inspection is relatively inconvenient. In the authorized Chinese utility model patent "Announcement No.: CN218726717U, Name: A Vehicle Exterior Damage Detection Device", a camera can be moved using a slide, wire rope, spring, perforation, mounting cabinet, winding roller, chute, motor, moving frame, LED light strip, and mounting base, so as to directly and quickly conduct a comprehensive inspection of the bottom of the car.
[0004] However, the aforementioned application requires the equipment to be pre-embedded in the floor of the testing workshop, with the top of the testing seat at the same level as the ground. Pre-embedding the equipment not only requires digging a pit with tools, but also makes it difficult to dissipate the heat from the camera and other electrical components in a timely manner. Furthermore, maintenance and repair of the camera and other structures require access to the pre-embedded location, which is extremely inconvenient. On another note, the aforementioned application requires the vehicle to be driven along the guide strip to the area above the transparent panel before the exterior of the car chassis can be inspected. However, due to the limited field of vision, the driver cannot accurately stop the vehicle above the transparent panel while it is moving. At this time, another person needs to direct the driver from outside the vehicle, or the driver needs to get out of the vehicle multiple times to check and correct the vehicle's position. This operation is cumbersome and inefficient. Moreover, because the aforementioned application requires pre-embedding, it is difficult to move and carry, affecting the flexibility of the testing agency. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, such as cumbersome inspection operation, low efficiency and low flexibility of use, and to provide a mobile vehicle appearance inspection mechanism.
[0006] The present invention solves the above-mentioned technical problems through the following technical solution:
[0007] This invention provides a mobile vehicle exterior inspection mechanism, including a supporting outer frame and a photographic exterior inspection instrument.
[0008] A collision protection component is disposed on the outside of the photographic appearance inspection instrument, and the collision protection component is used to provide protective protection for the photographic appearance inspection instrument.
[0009] A lifting assembly is disposed below the photographic appearance inspection instrument and is located in the inner cavity of the supporting outer frame. The lifting assembly can move in the vertical direction and is used to push the photographic appearance inspection instrument out of the anti-collision protection assembly.
[0010] The avoidance component is connected to both the anti-collision protection component and the lifting component. The avoidance component is used to convert the force of the lifting component moving up and down into the force of the anti-collision protection component opening and closing.
[0011] A walking assembly is disposed below the lifting assembly and at the lower part of the supporting outer frame. The walking assembly is used to move the entire detection mechanism during detection.
[0012] A mode conversion module is located between the lifting component and the walking component. The mode conversion module is used to adjust the distance between the lifting component and the walking component to change the working or resting mode of the detection mechanism.
[0013] In this technical solution, the mode conversion module can switch the photographic appearance inspection instrument and the walking component to either working mode or rest mode. In rest mode, with the operation of the mode conversion module, the photographic appearance inspection instrument is stored inside the anti-collision protection component, which provides waterproof, anti-collision, and dustproof protection for the photographic appearance inspection instrument. The walking component is stored inside the supporting outer frame. At this time, the supporting outer frame contacts the ground, increasing the contact area and effectively increasing the stability of the inspection mechanism during storage and maintenance.
[0014] During operation, the mode-changing module raises the photographic appearance inspection instrument while the anti-collision protection component automatically deploys to avoid obstructing the instrument's upper surface. Simultaneously, the mode-changing module adjusts the position of the walking component, bringing it to ground contact and raising the supporting outer frame away from the ground. This allows the inspection mechanism to pass under the vehicle chassis. During this process, the photographic appearance inspection instrument performs visual inspection of the chassis without requiring the inspection mechanism to be fixed, facilitating maintenance. Furthermore, it eliminates the need to specify the vehicle's location; the inspection mechanism can be placed on the ground when the vehicle is stationary, ensuring its movement path is under the chassis. This convenient operation and greater flexibility improve the efficiency of vehicle appearance inspection.
[0015] Preferably, the anti-collision protection component includes a support portion, and the bottom of the photographic appearance inspection instrument is provided with a support portion for support;
[0016] The upper part of the support is provided with two symmetrically distributed protective covers;
[0017] Both of the protective covers have multiple support bars connected to their bottoms, and the bottom ends of the support bars are connected to the avoidance components.

[0022] In this technical solution, the height of the photographic appearance inspection instrument is adjusted using a lifting component.
[0023] Preferably, the lifting assembly further includes an elastic element, and the bottom of the movable lifting plate is connected to a plurality of elastic elements, the bottom end of which is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the supporting outer frame.
[0024] In this technical solution, the use of elastic element 1 facilitates the restoration of the original position of structures such as the moving lifting plate.
[0025] Preferably, the avoidance component includes two symmetrically distributed transmission parts and a rotating shaft, and both transmission parts are rotatably disposed on the inner wall of the support part;
[0026] The two transmission parts are respectively disposed on both sides of the toothed lifting plate and are engaged with the toothed lifting plate;
[0027] The transmission unit is engaged with a spreading gear on the side away from the toothed lifting plate;
[0028] Both ends of the rotating shaft are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support, and the surface of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the through-hole of the spreading gear.
[0029] The surface of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support bar.
[0030] In this technical solution, the force of the lifting component can be transmitted to the anti-collision protection component by using the avoidance component, thereby driving the anti-collision protection component to move.
[0031] Preferably, the walking assembly includes a force-bearing plate, and a plurality of walking wheel modules are mounted on the bottom of the force-bearing plate;
[0032] The top of the load-bearing plate is connected to a reset component, which is connected to the inner wall of the supporting outer frame cavity.
[0033] In this technical solution, the walking component facilitates the movement of the detection mechanism.
[0034] Preferably, the mode conversion module includes a power component, which is mounted on the outside of the supporting outer frame;
[0035] The power assembly is connected to two symmetrically distributed rotating shafts at one end, and the two ends of the rotating shafts are respectively rotatably connected to the side of the supporting outer frame.
[0036] Both of the rotating shaft surfaces are fixed with transformation plates.
[0037] In this technical solution, the mode switching module can be used to simultaneously switch the photographic appearance inspection instrument and the walking component between rest mode and working mode.
[0038] Preferably, an anti-sway component is provided between the anti-collision protection component and the mounting plate, the anti-sway component including a movable clamping plate and a fixed clamping plate;
[0039] The movable card plate is slidably connected to the anti-deviation track, and an elastic element two is connected to the inner side of the anti-deviation track. One end of the elastic element two is connected to the inner side of the anti-deviation track.
[0040] The top surface of the fixing plate is inclined, and the fixing plate is fixed to the side of the mounting plate.
[0041] In this technical solution, the anti-sway component can be used in conjunction with the anti-collision protection component to lock the photographic appearance inspection instrument in place when it is stored, reducing the probability of the photographic appearance inspection instrument shaking during transportation of the inspection agency, thus facilitating the transportation of the inspection agency.

[0046] In this technical solution, the position of the photographic appearance inspection instrument can be adjusted using the position adjustment component, so that the photographic appearance inspection instrument is in different positions supporting the outer frame, which facilitates appearance inspection of different positions of the chassis.
[0047] Preferably, the position adjustment component further includes a limiting toothed plate, and the bottom of the sliding block has a toothed structure;
[0048] A limiting toothed plate is provided below the sliding block, and the limiting toothed plate is fixed to the top of the movable lifting plate.
[0049] In this technical solution, the position of the sliding block can be limited by the limiting tooth plate when the photographic appearance inspection instrument is working, so as to prevent the position of the photographic appearance inspection instrument from moving during the inspection, which would lead to errors or missed detections.
[0050] Based on common knowledge in the field, the above-mentioned preferred conditions can be combined arbitrarily to obtain various preferred embodiments of the present invention.
[0051] The positive and progressive effects of this invention are as follows:
[0052] This invention utilizes a mode switching module to simultaneously switch between rest and working modes for the photographic appearance inspection instrument and the walking component. During operation, the photographic appearance inspection instrument is exposed, while the walking component supports the entire inspection mechanism. In this mode, the walking component moves the photographic appearance inspection instrument under the vehicle chassis to perform appearance inspection. During rest, the photographic appearance inspection instrument is retracted into the anti-collision protection component, and the walking component is supported within the outer frame. The anti-collision protection component protects the photographic appearance inspection instrument. Furthermore, the entire retraction mechanism uses a support outer frame with a large contact area, increasing stability. During inspection, there is no need to fix the inspection mechanism in place, facilitating maintenance. Also, there is no need to specify the vehicle's location; when the vehicle is stationary, the inspection mechanism can be placed on the ground, with its movement trajectory under the vehicle chassis. This convenient operation and greater flexibility in use improve the efficiency of vehicle appearance inspection. Attached Figure Description

[0076] The present invention will be further illustrated by way of embodiments below, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments described herein.
[0077] Figures 1 to 12 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of an embodiment of the mobile vehicle appearance inspection mechanism of the present invention.
[0078] Example 1
[0079] The mobile vehicle exterior inspection facility includes a supporting outer frame 1 and a photographic exterior inspection instrument 2.
[0080] The anti-collision protection component 3 is installed on the outside of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2. The anti-collision protection component 3 is used to protect the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2. That is, the anti-collision protection component 3 can provide rainproof, waterproof, dustproof and impact-proof protection for the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2. Moreover, the anti-collision protection component 3 can automatically unfold and close when the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 rises or falls, without affecting the use of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2.
[0081] The lifting component 4 is located below the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 and is located in the inner cavity of the supporting outer frame 1. The lifting component 4 can move in the vertical direction. The lifting component 4 is used to push the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 out of the anti-collision protection component 3. The lifting component 4 can synchronously drive the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 to move up and down.
[0082] Avoid component 5, which is connected to anti-collision protection component 3 and lifting component 4 respectively. Avoid component 5 is used to convert the force of lifting component 4 moving up and down into the force of anti-collision protection component 3 opening and closing. When anti-collision protection component 3 moves, it can drive avoid component 5 to rotate, thereby driving anti-collision protection component 3 to open and close.
[0083] The walking component 6 is located below the lifting component 4 and is located at the lower part of the supporting outer frame 1. The walking component 6 is used to move the entire inspection mechanism during inspection. When the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is exposed from the anti-collision protection component 3, the walking component 6 contacts the ground and lifts the supporting outer frame 1 off the ground. At this time, the inspection mechanism is supported by the walking component 6.
[0084] The mode conversion module 7 is located between the lifting component 4 and the traveling component 6. The mode conversion module 7 is used to adjust the distance between the lifting component 4 and the traveling component 6, and to change the working or resting mode of the detection mechanism. When the mode conversion module 7 rotates, it can synchronously drive the lifting component 4 and the traveling component 6 to move, so that the lifting component 4 moves towards or away from each other at the same time, and the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 and the traveling component 6 can be in working mode or resting mode at the same time.
[0085] In this technical solution, the mode conversion module 7 can switch the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 and the walking component 6 to either working mode or rest mode. In rest mode, with the operation of the mode conversion module 7, the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is stored inside the anti-collision protection component 3. The anti-collision protection component 3 provides waterproof, anti-collision, and dustproof protection for the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2. The walking component 6 is stored inside the supporting outer frame 1. At this time, the supporting outer frame 1 contacts the ground, increasing the contact area and effectively increasing the stability of the inspection mechanism during storage and maintenance.
[0086] During operation, with the mode switching module 7 in operation, the camera-type appearance inspection instrument 2 rises while the anti-collision protection component 3 automatically deploys to avoid obstruction of the camera-type appearance inspection instrument 2 under the transmission action of the avoidance component 5. At the same time, the mode switching module 7 can synchronously adjust the position of the walking component 6, so that the walking component 6 contacts the ground and raises the supporting outer frame 1, moving the supporting outer frame 1 away from the ground. At this time, the inspection mechanism can pass under the car chassis using the walking component 6. During this process, the camera-type appearance inspection instrument 2 is used to perform appearance inspection of the car chassis. This inspection does not require fixing the inspection mechanism, which is convenient for maintenance. At the same time, there is no need to specify the car position. When the car is stopped, the inspection mechanism can be placed on the ground so that its movement trajectory is under the car chassis. The operation is convenient and the inspection mechanism is more flexible in use, thereby improving the efficiency of car appearance inspection.
[0087] The anti-collision protection component 3 includes a support part 31, and the bottom of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is provided with a support part 31 for support;
[0088] The upper part of the support 31 is provided with two symmetrically distributed protective covers 32;
[0089] Both protective covers 32 have multiple support bars 33 connected to their bottoms, and the bottom ends of the support bars 33 are connected to the avoidance component 5.
[0090] In this technical solution, the anti-collision protection component 3 can be used to protect the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2.
[0091] During use, the movement of the lifting component 4 and the transmission of the avoidance component 5 can drive the protective cover 32 and the support bar 33 to rotate, so that the protective cover 32 and the support bar 33 on both sides can be in a closed or unfolded state.
[0092] It is worth noting that, in order to reduce the amount of dust falling into the outer support frame 1, shielding cloths 34 are connected to both sides of the support 31, and the side of the shielding cloths 34 away from the support 31 is connected to the opening on the top surface of the outer support frame 1.
[0093] The support part 31 can not only block some of the dust, but also provide flexible support for the unfolded protective shell 32.
[0094] The lifting assembly 4 includes a movable lifting plate 41, which is adjustablely disposed in the inner cavity of the supporting outer frame 1.
[0095] The top of the movable lifting plate 41 is connected to a fixed track 42, and a toothed lifting plate 43 is slidably connected to the surface of the fixed track 42.
[0096] A mounting plate 44 is fixedly connected to the top of the tooth-shaped lifting plate 43, and a photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is mounted on the top of the mounting plate 44.
[0097] In this technical solution, the height of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is adjusted using the lifting component 4.
[0098] When the mode conversion module 7 rotates from the horizontal to the vertical direction, it drives the movable lifting plate 41 to move upward, thereby driving the fixed track 42 and the toothed lifting plate 43 to move in the same direction, thereby driving the mounting plate 44 to move in the same direction. At this time, it can drive the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 to move upward, exposing the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 from the anti-collision protection component 3, preventing the anti-collision protection component 3 from obstructing the view of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2. At this time, the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is in working state.
[0099] When the mode conversion module 7 rotates from vertical to horizontal, the lifting plate 41 and mounting plate 44 move downward under the action of elastic element 45 and gravity, thereby driving the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 to move downward and be stored in the anti-collision protection component 3. At this time, the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is in a resting state.
[0100] The lifting assembly 4 also includes an elastic element 45. Multiple elastic elements 45 are connected to the bottom of the movable lifting plate 41. The bottom end of the elastic element 45 is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the supporting outer frame 1.
[0101] In this technical solution, the elastic element 45 can be used to facilitate the movement of the lifting plate 41 and other structures to return to their initial positions.
[0102] The component 5 includes two symmetrically distributed transmission parts 51 and a rotating shaft 53, and both transmission parts 51 are rotatably disposed on the inner wall of the support part 31.
[0103] Two transmission parts 51 are respectively disposed on both sides of the toothed lifting plate 43 and are engaged with the toothed lifting plate 43;
[0104] A spreading gear 52 is engaged on the side of the transmission unit 51 away from the toothed lifting plate 43;
[0105] The two ends of the rotating shaft 53 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support part 31, and the surface of the rotating shaft 53 is fixedly connected to the spreading gear 52 through connection.
[0106] The surface of the rotating shaft 53 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support bar 33.
[0107] In this technical solution, the force of the lifting component 4 can be transmitted to the anti-collision protection component 3 by using the avoidance component 5, thereby driving the anti-collision protection component 3 to move.
[0108] When the toothed lifting plate 43 moves, it can drive the transmission part 51 to rotate, thereby driving the spreading gear 52 to rotate, and then driving the rotating shaft 53 to rotate. At this time, it can drive the support bar 33 and the protective cover 32 to rotate, and the rotating shafts 53 on both sides rotate in opposite directions, so that the protective covers 32 on both sides can be retracted or unfolded.
[0109] As one embodiment of this application, the spreading gear 52 can be composed of an even number of meshing gears.
[0110] The walking component 6 includes a force-bearing plate 61, and multiple walking wheel modules 62 are installed at the bottom of the force-bearing plate 61;
[0111] The top of the load-bearing plate 61 is connected to a reset component 63, which is connected to the inner cavity side wall of the supporting outer frame 1;
[0112] The reset component 63 includes a fixing part 631 and a reset member 632. The fixing part 631 is fixed to the inner wall of the supporting outer frame 1. Multiple reset members 632 are connected to the bottom of the fixing part 631. The bottom end of the reset member 632 is installed on the top of the force plate 61.
[0113] In this technical solution, the walking component 6 facilitates the movement of the detection mechanism.
[0114] When the mode conversion module 7 drives the lifting component 4 to move upward, it can simultaneously drive the force plate 61 and the walking wheel module 62 to move downward, so that the walking wheel module 62 contacts the ground and lifts the supporting outer frame 1 off the ground. At this time, the walking wheel module 62 can be used to move the detection mechanism.
[0115] In rest mode, the mode switching module 7 moves away from the force plate 61. At this time, under the action of the reset component 63, the force plate 61 and the walking wheel module 62 can return to their initial positions. That is, the reset component 63 moves away from the ground, so that the supporting outer frame 1 contacts the ground and supports the detection mechanism.
[0116] As one embodiment of the walking wheel module 62, the walking wheel module 62 can be a self-powered wheel structure, making the movement of the detection mechanism more effortless and the track less prone to deviation.
[0117] As another embodiment of the walking wheel module 62, the walking wheel module 62 can be a manually operated wheel-shaped structure. It can be rotated by human power, such as by pulling a rope, to drive the detection mechanism to move. At this time, the direction and position of the detection mechanism can be changed at will, and the movement is highly flexible.
[0118] The mode conversion module 7 includes a power component 71, which is installed on the outside of the supporting outer frame 1;
[0119] The power assembly 71 includes a mounting housing 711, which is mounted on the outside of the supporting outer frame 1. Two symmetrically distributed drive wheels 712 are provided in the inner cavity of the mounting housing 711. The two drive wheels 712 are connected by a drive belt 713. One of the drive wheels 712 is fixed to the output end of the power source 714, which is mounted in the inner cavity of the mounting housing 711. One side of each of the two drive wheels 712 is connected to a rotating shaft 72.
[0120] The power assembly 71 is connected to two symmetrically distributed rotating shafts 72 at one end, and the two ends of the rotating shafts 72 are rotatably connected to the side of the supporting outer frame 1 respectively;
[0121] Transformation plates 73 are fixedly attached to the surfaces of both rotating shafts 72;
[0122] The conversion plate 73 includes a conversion plate 731, which is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 72. Both sides of the conversion plate 731 are connected to a central shaft 732. A rolling sleeve 733 is rotatably connected to the surface of the central shaft 732. When the conversion plate 731 rotates, the central shaft 732 contacts the movable lifting plate 41 or the force plate 61 to reduce friction and facilitate the rotation of the conversion plate 731.
[0123] In this technical solution, the mode switching module 7 can be used to simultaneously switch the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 and the walking component 6 between rest mode and working mode.
[0124] In use, the power source 714 drives the corresponding transmission wheel 712 to rotate, which in turn drives the transmission belt 713 to rotate, which in turn drives another transmission wheel 712 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 72 to rotate, which in turn drives the conversion plate 731 to rotate. When the conversion plate 731 rotates, it can synchronously drive the movable lifting plate 41 and the force plate 61 to move, which means that the distance between the movable lifting plate 41 and the force plate 61 can be adjusted.
[0125] It is worth noting that the power source 714 can be an electric motor or other device that can rotate the transmission wheel 712.
[0126] The drive wheel 712 and the drive belt 713 can be sprocket chain drive, pulley belt drive, or other structures that can use a power source to synchronously drive the two rotating shafts 72 to rotate.
[0127] Example 2
[0128] Based on Embodiment 1, an anti-sway component 8 is provided between the anti-collision protection component 3 and the mounting plate 44. The anti-sway component 8 includes a movable plate 81 and a fixed plate 82.
[0129] The movable plate 81 is slidably connected to the anti-deviation rail 83. An elastic element 84 is connected to the inner side of the anti-deviation rail 83, and one end of the elastic element 84 is connected to the inner side of the anti-deviation rail 83.
[0130] The top surface of the fixing plate 82 is inclined, and the fixing plate 82 is fixed to the side of the mounting plate 44.
[0131] In this technical solution, the anti-sway component 8 can be used in conjunction with the anti-collision protection component 3 to lock the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 when it is stored, thereby reducing the probability of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 shaking during transportation of the inspection mechanism and facilitating the transportation of the inspection mechanism.
[0132] When the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is stored, the protective cover 32 presses the movable plate 81, thereby moving the connector 91 to the top of the fixed plate 82, limiting the position of the fixed plate 82, and cooperating with the support part 31 to limit the position of the mounting plate 44, thereby limiting the position of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 and preventing the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 from shaking too much due to the shaking of the supporting outer frame 1 during transportation.
[0133] It is worth noting that the elastic element 1 45, the reset element 632, and the elastic element 2 84 are all springs or other components with a rebound function.
[0134] Example 3
[0135] As the third embodiment of this application, its difference from the first embodiment is that the anti-collision protection component 3 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the supporting outer frame 1 through the position adjustment component 9, and the position adjustment component 9 includes two symmetrically distributed connecting bodies 91.
[0136] Two connectors 91 are respectively fixed to both sides of the support part 31;
[0137] Sliding blocks 92 are fixedly connected to both ends of the connector 91;
[0138] The sliding block 92 is slidably connected to the surface of the support shaft 93, and both ends of the support shaft 93 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer support frame 1.
[0139] In this technical solution, the position of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 can be adjusted by using the position adjustment component 9, so that the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is in different positions supporting the outer frame 1, which facilitates appearance inspection of different positions of the chassis.
[0140] The position adjustment component 9 also includes a limiting toothed plate 94, and the bottom of the sliding block 92 has a toothed structure;
[0141] A limiting toothed plate 94 is provided below the sliding block 92. The limiting toothed plate 94 is fixed to the top of the movable lifting plate 41. When the limiting toothed plate 94 and the sliding block 92 are in contact, they engage.
[0142] In this technical solution, the position of the sliding block 92 can be limited by the limiting tooth plate 94 when the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is working, so as to prevent the position of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 from moving during the inspection, which would lead to errors or missed detections.
[0143] Before testing, when the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is in rest mode, the anti-collision protection component 3 can be moved, thereby moving the connecting body 91, which in turn moves the sliding block 92 along the support shaft 93, thereby adjusting the position of the anti-collision protection component 3 and the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2, and improving the flexibility of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 in use.
[0144] When the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 is in working mode, the movable top plate 41 drives the limiting tooth plate 94 to move upward and closely adhere to the bottom of the sliding block 92. By utilizing the interlocking action between the limiting tooth plate 94 and the sliding block 92, the position of the sliding block 92 is limited, thereby locking the position of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 and ensuring the stability of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 during operation.
[0145] Example 4
[0146] Based on Embodiment 1, two symmetrically distributed wiping components 10 are provided between the support 31 and the protective cover 32 to wipe away dust on the surface of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2, so as to prevent affecting the clarity of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2.
[0147] The wiping assembly 10 includes multiple wiping pads 101, which are respectively connected to the mounting shaft 102. Both ends of the mounting shaft 102 are rotatably connected to fixed vertical plates 103, and the bottom of the fixed vertical plates 103 is connected to the top of the support part 31.
[0148] A rotating gear 104 is fixedly connected to both ends of the mounting shaft 102. A following rack 105 is provided on one side of the rotating gear 104 and is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting plate 44.
[0149] A baffle plate 106 is provided on the side of the rotating gear 104 away from the following rack 105. The bottom of the baffle plate 106 is fixed to the top of the support part 31. The baffle plate 106 can prevent the wiping cotton pad 101 from affecting the closing of the protective cover 32.
[0150] When the mounting plate 44 moves, it can drive the follower rack 105 to move in the same direction. When the follower rack 105 contacts the rotating gear 104, it can drive it to rotate, thereby driving the mounting shaft 102 and the wiping cotton pad 101 to rotate. When the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2 moves up or down, the wiping cotton pad 101 can be rotated to clean the camera port of the photographic appearance inspection instrument 2.

Those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to these embodiments without departing from the principles and essence of the present invention, but all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
