[0034] 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.

[0035] like Figures 1-11As shown, the gantry-type image measuring instrument includes a measuring instrument body 1 and a gantry frame 2 mounted on the measuring instrument body 1; it also includes: a camera assembly 14, which is used for image measurement; a protective belt 4, which is annular and light-transmitting, and can be adjusted along its length; side plates 5 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the protective belt 4, and the protective belt 4 and the two side plates 5 form a protective cavity for surrounding the camera assembly 14; a cleaning mechanism 7, which is located on one side of the bottom of the protective belt 4; two inflatable sealing rings 501, which are respectively located on the edges of the two side plates 5 and respectively fit against the front and rear sides of the protective belt 4; and an air pump mechanism 16, which is located inside the protective cavity and is used to fill the inflatable sealing rings 501 with gas or remove gas.

[0036] A connecting plate 13 is fixedly installed between the two side plates 5. A carrier plate 3 is fixedly connected to the side plate 5 located on the back of the connecting plate 13. The carrier plate 3 is connected to the gantry frame 2.

[0037] like Figures 2-3 As shown, four rotating shafts 12 are rotatably mounted between the two side plates 5, and pulleys 1201 are fixedly sleeved at both ends of the rotating shafts 12; the protective belt 4 includes a transparent belt body 401 and two transmission belt bodies 402, and the front and rear edges of the transparent belt body 401 are respectively fixedly connected to the two transmission belt bodies 402; the transmission belt body 402 located on the front side of the transparent belt body 401 is wound around the pulleys 1201 at the front end of the four rotating shafts 12, and the transmission belt body 402 located on the rear side of the transparent belt body 401 is wound around the pulleys 1201 at the rear end of the four rotating shafts 12; a motor 6 is fixedly mounted on the plate surface of the side plate 5 facing away from the protective belt 4, and the output shaft end of the motor 6 is fixedly connected to the end of one rotating shaft 12.

[0038] The transparent strip 401 located below the camera assembly 14, i.e. the transparent strip 401 at the lens position, has dust on its surface that affects photography. In the event that the dust is attached to the surface, the motor 6 drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, and the pulley 1201 drives the transmission belt 402 to move the protective belt 4. The part of the transparent strip 401 that was originally located below the camera assembly 14 moves away, while the transparent strip 401 that has entered below the camera assembly 14 is cleaned by the cleaning mechanism 7. Through the above design, the cleanliness of the camera area below the camera assembly 14 is ensured.

[0039] Among them, motor 6 is preferably a servo motor 6. The transmission belt 402 and pulley 1201 are preferably a synchronous belt and a synchronous pulley, respectively.

[0040] like Figure 9As shown, the cleaning mechanism 7 includes an end frame 701, a roller brush 702, a first drive wheel 703, a second drive wheel 704, a first synchronous belt 705, and an air outlet hood 706. There are two end frames 701, and the two end frames 701 are respectively fixed to two side plates 5. The roller brush 702 is rotatably installed between the two end frames 701, and the bristles of the roller brush 702 are attached to the outer wall of the bottom side of the protective belt 4. The first drive wheel 703 is fixedly installed at one end of the roller brush 702. The first synchronous belt 705 is wound between the first drive wheel 703 and the second drive wheel 704. The second drive wheel 704 is fixedly sleeved with one end of the rotating shaft 12 extending outside the protective cavity. The air outlet hood 706 is fixedly installed between the two end frames 701, and the air outlet of the air outlet hood 706 faces the top of the roller brush 702 away from the protective belt 4.

[0041] The cleaning mechanism 7 operates as follows: when the motor 6 drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, the rotating shaft 12 drives the second transmission wheel 704 to rotate. Under the transmission action of the first synchronous belt 705, the first transmission wheel 703 rotates. The first transmission wheel 703 drives the roller brush 702 to rotate. Together with the movement of the transparent belt body 401, it achieves brush cleaning. At the same time, during the rotation of the roller brush 702, the air outlet 706 provides airflow to the top of the roller brush 702, blowing away the dust attached to the bristles and providing a certain degree of self-cleaning effect.

[0042] like Figures 3-7 As shown, the air pump mechanism 16 includes a connecting seat 1601, a cylinder 1602, a third piston 1603, a third movable rod 1604, a second connecting bar 1605, a first connecting pipe 1606, and a second connecting pipe 1607. The connecting seat 1601 is fixedly connected to one side wall of the camera assembly 14. The cylinder 1602 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 1601. The third piston 1603 is connected inside the cylinder 1602. The bottom end of the cylinder 1602 is connected to the first connecting pipe 1606. The first connecting pipe 1606 is connected to the second connecting pipe 1607. The second connecting pipe 1607 is connected to the inflation sealing ring 501. The top of the third piston 1603 is fixedly connected to the third movable rod 1604. The third movable rod 1604 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 15 through the second connecting bar 1605.

[0043] The rear end of the carrier plate 3 is provided with a straight groove 301, which extends into the connecting plate 13. The bottom of the connecting plate 13 is provided with a hole, which communicates with the straight groove 301. The connecting rod 15 passes through the hole and the straight groove 301. A corrugated hose 17 is provided at the bottom of the hole, and the corrugated hose 17 is sleeved on the connecting rod 15. The bottom end of the corrugated hose 17 is fixed to the rod surface of the connecting rod 15, and the top end of the corrugated hose 17 is fixed to the wall of the hole.

[0044] A push block 1501 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 15 away from the second connecting bar 1605. The bottom of the push block 1501 abuts against a cam 1502. The cam 1502 is fixedly sleeved onto one end of the rotating shaft 12 that extends outside the protective cavity.

[0045] A magnetic attraction mechanism 18 is provided at the bottom of the carrier plate 3. The magnetic attraction mechanism 18 includes an iron base 1801, a permanent magnet 1802, a guide post 1803, a base 1804, and a spring 1805. The iron base 1801 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 15. A guide hole is provided on the iron base 1801. The guide post 1803 is connected to the guide hole with clearance fit. The permanent magnet 1802 is fixedly connected to the top of the guide post 1803 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the carrier plate 3. The base 1804 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the guide post 1803. The base 1804 and the iron base 1801 are elastically connected by the spring 1805. A handle 10 is fixedly installed on one side of the iron base 1801.

[0046] During the switching of the bottom protective strip 4 of the camera assembly 14, the rotating shaft 12 rotates, and the cam 1502 on it rotates together. The cam 1502 pushes the push block 1501 upward, and the push block 1501 drives the connecting rod 15 to move upward. The iron seat 1801 on the connecting rod 15 moves upward together through the guide post 1803 and the guide hole, so that the iron seat 1801 contacts the permanent magnet 1802. Through magnetic attraction, the iron seat 1801 is limited, so that the push block 1501 and the connecting rod 15 are held in a high position. At the same time, the spring 1805 is stretched, and the connecting rod 1... 5. Moving upwards, the third movable rod 1604 is driven to move upwards via the second connecting bar 1605. The third movable rod 1604 drives the third piston 1603 to move upwards within the cylinder 1602. Gas is drawn from the inflatable sealing ring 501 through the first connecting pipe 1606 and the second connecting pipe 1607, causing the inflatable sealing ring 501 to contract. The inflatable sealing ring 501 separates from the transmission belt body 402 of the protective belt 4. During the subsequent movement and adjustment of the protective belt 4, friction and wear between the inflatable sealing ring 501 and the transmission belt body 402 of the protective belt 4 are avoided.

[0047] After the protective belt 4 is moved and adjusted, the number of rotations of the rotating shaft 12 is fixed and is an integer number of rotations. The cam 1502 rotates an integer number of rotations with the rotating shaft 12, and its state is the same as before the adjustment. The manual push handle 10 is used to separate the iron seat 1801 from the permanent magnet 1802. The iron seat 1801 drives the connecting rod 15 and the push block 1501 to move down. The push block 1501 is in contact with the cam 1502. The connecting rod 15 drives the third piston 1603 to move down through the second connecting bar 1605 and the third movable rod 1604. Gas is refilled into the air-filled sealing ring 501 through the first connecting pipe 1606 and the second connecting pipe 1607. The air-filled sealing ring 501 is in contact with the transmission belt body 402 and a new seal is formed.

[0048] The above design reduces wear on the transmission belt 402 and the pneumatic sealing ring 501.

[0049] The corrugated hose 17 is used to seal the hole, and its corrugated shape allows it to extend and retract to accommodate the up and down movement of the connecting rod 15.

[0050] The straight groove 301 provides space for the vertical movement of the connecting rod 15.

A second synchronous belt 805 is wound between the third transmission wheel 803 and the fourth transmission wheel 804. One end of the first rotating rod 802 located inside the protective shell 801 is fixedly connected to a rod body 806. The end of the rod body 806 away from the first rotating rod 802 is rotatably connected to a second rotating rod 807. The second rotating rod 807 is fixedly connected to a slider 808.

One end of the second one-way valve 1104 is connected to the top of the first inflation chamber and the bottom of the second inflation chamber through the second three-way pipe 1112. The other end of the second one-way valve 1104 is connected to an air outlet pipe 1105. The end of the air outlet pipe 1105 away from the second one-way valve 1104 is provided with two ports, and the two ports are respectively connected to the air outlet hood 706 of the cleaning mechanism 7 and the protective cavity.

[0053] During the switching of the bottom protective belt 4 of the camera assembly 14, the rotating shaft 12 rotates, driving the roller brush 702 to rotate. The roller brush 702 drives the fourth transmission wheel 804 to rotate. Through the transmission of the second synchronous belt 805, the third transmission wheel 803 rotates. The third transmission wheel 803 drives the first rotating rod 802 to rotate. The first rotating rod 802 causes the rod body 806 to rotate inside the protective shell 801. The rod body 806 drives the slider 808 to slide along the length of the slide rail 809, and at the same time drives the slide rail 809 to move up and down vertically inside the protective shell 801. Then, the slide rail 809 drives the movable bar 1106 to move up and down reciprocally. When the movable bar 1106 moves upward, it causes the first movable rod 1108 and the second movable rod 1110 to move upward together. The first movable rod 1108 drives the first piston 1113 to move upward in the first housing 1101, which reduces the volume of the first inflation chamber. The gas in the first inflation chamber is filled into the air hood 706 and the protective chamber through the second one-way valve 1104 and the air outlet pipe 1105. The second movable rod 1110 drives the second piston 1114 to move upward in the second housing 1102, which increases the volume of the second inflation chamber. Outside air enters the second inflation chamber through the first one-way valve 1103.

[0054] When the movable bar 1106 moves downward, it causes the first movable rod 1108 and the second movable rod 1110 to move downward together. The first movable rod 1108 drives the first piston 1113 to move downward within the first housing 1101, increasing the volume of the first inflation chamber. Outside air enters the first inflation chamber through the first one-way valve 1103. The second movable rod 1110 drives the second piston 1114 to move downward within the second housing 1102, decreasing the volume of the second inflation chamber. The gas in the second inflation chamber is filled into the air outlet hood 706 and the protective chamber through the second one-way valve 1104 and the air outlet pipe 1105.

[0055] In summary, when the movable strip 1106 is driven by the transmission mechanism 8, i.e., during the switching and adjustment of the bottom protective belt 4 of the camera component 14, gas is filled into the air hood 706 and the protective cavity.

[0056] The air hood 706 is used to clean the roller brush 702, and to fill the protective cavity with gas to create positive pressure inside, so as to prevent dust from entering the protective cavity when the air sealing ring 501 is separated from the transmission belt body 402.

[0057] In practice, a filter is installed on the first check valve 1103 to filter the incoming air and ensure its cleanliness.
