Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of product testing technology, specifically to a device for testing products with frames. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production, products such as certain electronic components or composite material products may have embedded metal skeletons to enhance structural strength or achieve specific functions. Accurate and efficient detection of whether a product has a skeleton, and automated sorting of these skeletons, are crucial for subsequent assembly and quality control. Currently, the inspection of such products mostly relies on manual methods or single inspection techniques, which have significant limitations: First, manual inspection is extremely inefficient, labor-intensive, and prone to misjudgments and missed detections due to fatigue, resulting in poor consistency. Second, existing automated inspection equipment is often single-function, typically only capable of performing the inspection action, lacking efficient automated sorting and unloading mechanisms, still requiring manual intervention for sorting, thus failing to achieve full-process automation. Third, for products requiring inspection from different angles (such as top and bottom), existing equipment may require secondary positioning or two independent conveying systems, a cumbersome process where positioning errors affect inspection accuracy, and the equipment structure is complex and costly. Furthermore, ensuring stable transport and precise positioning of products during the inspection process, preventing movement or drops at the inspection station, is also a key issue affecting the reliability of the inspection. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automated testing device that integrates automatic feeding, multi-directional collaborative detection, and automatic sorting and unloading, and can ensure stable and reliable product delivery and positioning. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a device for detecting products with skeletons, thus solving the aforementioned problems.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution: a testing equipment for products with skeletons, including a testing table and a feeding conveyor belt disposed on the side of the testing table, a fixed plate is fixedly connected to the top of the testing table, and a pusher plate driven by a motor is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed plate, and a plurality of uniformly arranged adapter grooves are opened on the surface of the pusher plate. The surface of the detection station is fixedly connected to an upper detector and a lower detector. The detection port of the upper detector is located above the fixed plate and the push plate, and the detection port of the lower detector is located below the fixed plate. The inner cavity of the fixed plate has a hole located above the detection port of the lower detector. The fixed plate has an inner cavity with a receiving groove located on the side of the hole. A double-rod drive cylinder is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the receiving groove. The two ends of the piston rod of the double-rod drive cylinder are respectively fixedly connected to guide rods that slide within the hole. The surface of the guide rods is flush with the top of the hole. In use, the workpiece is conveyed by a feeding conveyor belt and conveyed to the matching groove in the pusher plate. Then the pusher plate rotates and pushes the workpiece in the matching groove to slide on the fixed plate, move to below the upper detector for detection, and then move to above the lower detector. At this time, the workpiece slides along the guide rod on the surface of the hole and moves to directly above the lower detector. Then the double-rod drive cylinder drives the two guide rods to move to both sides, move away from above the lower detector, and then pass through the lower detector for detection. After the detection is completed, it continues to be conveyed to the discharge station. After detection, the workpieces with and without skeletons are output through different discharge stations, completing the detection.

[0005] As a further aspect of the present invention: a baffle located in the middle of the fixed plate and the push plate is fixedly connected to the top of the testing platform. The baffle is located on the side of the unloading conveyor belt and blocks the workpieces conveyed down by the unloading conveyor belt.

[0006] As a further aspect of the present invention: the feeding conveyor belt is located above the pusher plate.

[0007] As a further aspect of the present invention: the surface of the testing table is fixed with a plurality of discharge stations located on the side of the fixed plate. Each discharge station includes a rotating motor fixed on the surface of the testing table, and the output shaft end of the rotating motor is fixedly connected to a rotating track passing through a pusher plate above the pusher plate.

[0008] As a further aspect of the present invention: the surface of the testing station is fixedly connected to a discharge channel located in the counterclockwise direction at the discharge station, and the pusher plate rotates clockwise to push the workpiece in the matching groove in the pusher plate into the discharge channel for output.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: The entire process of inspection and sorting has been automated, greatly improving production efficiency: the equipment integrates automatic feeding, dual-station inspection, and automatic sorting and unloading. Products are automatically fed via a conveyor belt, and then conveyed sequentially through the inspection stations by a rotating pusher disc. Finally, based on the inspection results, products are automatically sorted and output from different unloading stations, completely replacing manual operation, achieving continuous operation, and resulting in a qualitative leap in production efficiency.

[0010] This system enables coordinated inspection of the product's top and bottom surfaces, improving inspection accuracy and reliability. It innovatively employs two inspection stations: an upper detector and a lower detector, which inspect the product from above and below respectively. This layout allows for more comprehensive capture of the product's internal structural features, providing cross-verification and effectively avoiding misjudgments caused by a single product posture or blind spots, thus significantly enhancing the accuracy and reliability of the inspection results.

[0011] A cleverly designed movable guiding mechanism ensures the stability and accuracy of the testing process: a guide rod, controlled by a double-bar driven cylinder, is installed above the lower detector. When the product is transported to the lower detector station, it is first supported and guided by the closed guide rod to move precisely above the testing point. Then, the cylinder actuates to move the guide rod to both sides, exposing the testing window for inspection. This design perfectly resolves the contradiction between precise positioning and unobstructed testing, preventing the product from falling or shifting at the testing position while ensuring the integrity of the testing signal.

[0012] With a compact structure, reasonable layout, and stable and reliable operation, the system combines a fixed disc with a rotary pusher disc. The pusher disc utilizes an adapter groove to support and convey products via a stepping motion, ensuring precise movement. Baffles guarantee smooth feeding and initial positioning. Multiple discharge stations, in conjunction with the pusher disc design, achieve efficient and error-free sorting. The entire system boasts an ingenious structural design, a high degree of automation, and stable operation. Attached Figure Description

[0015] To further illustrate the technical means and effects of the present invention in achieving its intended purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structures, features, and effects of the present invention, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments, is provided below.

[0016] Please see Figure 1-2The present invention provides a technical solution: a testing equipment for products with skeletons, including a testing table 1 and a feeding conveyor belt 2 set on the side of the testing table 1. A fixed plate 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the testing table 1, and a pusher plate 3 driven by a motor is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed plate 2. The surface of the pusher plate 3 is provided with a plurality of uniformly arranged adapter grooves 4. The surface of the detection table 1 is fixedly connected with an upper detector 5 and a lower detector 6. The detection port of the upper detector 5 is located above the fixed plate 2 and the push plate 3, and the detection port of the lower detector 6 is located below the fixed plate 2. The inner cavity of the fixed plate 2 is provided with a hole 12 located above the detection port of the lower detector 6. The inner cavity of the fixed plate 2 has a receiving groove 13 located on the side of the hole 12. A double-rod drive cylinder 14 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the receiving groove 13. The two ends of the piston rod of the double-rod drive cylinder 14 are respectively fixedly connected to guide rods 11 that slide in the hole 12. The surface of the guide rods 11 is flush with the top of the hole 12. In use, the workpiece 7 is conveyed by the feeding conveyor belt 2. The workpiece 7 is conveyed into the matching groove 4 in the pusher plate 3. Then the pusher plate 3 rotates and pushes the workpiece 7 in the matching groove 4 to slide on the fixed plate 2, move to the lower detector 5 for detection, and then move to the upper detector 6. At this time, the workpiece 7 slides along the guide rods 11 on the surface of the hole 12 and moves to the upper detector 6. Then the double-rod drive cylinder 14 drives the two guide rods 11 to move to both sides and move away from the lower detector 6. Then it is detected by the lower detector 6. After the detection is completed, it continues to be conveyed to the discharge station. After detection, the workpieces with and without skeletons are output through different discharge stations to complete the detection.

[0017] As a further aspect of the present invention: a baffle 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the inspection table 1, located in the middle of the fixed plate 2 and the push plate 3. The baffle 15 is located on the side of the unloading conveyor belt 2, and the workpieces conveyed down from the unloading conveyor belt 2 are blocked by the baffle 15.

[0018] As a further aspect of the present invention: the feeding conveyor belt 2 is located above the pusher plate 3.

[0019] As a further aspect of the present invention: the surface of the testing table 1 is fixed with a plurality of discharge stations located on the side of the fixed plate 2. The discharge station includes a rotating motor 9 fixed on the surface of the testing table 1. The output shaft end of the rotating motor 9 is fixedly connected to a rotating track passing through the push plate 10 above the push plate 3.

[0020] As a further embodiment of the present invention: the surface of the testing station 1 is fixedly connected to a discharge channel 15 located in the counterclockwise direction of the discharge station, and the pusher plate 10 rotates clockwise to push the workpiece in the adapter groove 4 in the pusher plate 3 into the discharge channel 15 for output.

[0021] In use, the product to be tested is continuously conveyed by a feeding conveyor belt to a rotating pusher plate during operation. Under the obstruction and guidance of the baffle, the product falls into a matching groove on the surface of the pusher plate.

[0022] The drive motor causes the pusher plate to rotate intermittently on top of the fixed plate. Each time the pusher plate rotates to one station, it moves the product in its matching slot forward one position.

[0023] When the product is conveyed to the area below the upper detector, the pusher plate stops rotating, and the upper detector starts to perform the first inspection of the product from above (e.g., to detect the presence of a metal skeleton).

[0024] After the upper inspection is completed, the pusher plate continues to rotate, conveying the product to the lower detector station. At this point, the product is positioned above the opening in the fixed plate. Initially, two guide rods controlled by a dual-rod drive cylinder extend from this opening, their surfaces flush with the top surface of the fixed plate, supporting and guiding the product to move directly above the lower detector's inspection port. Subsequently, the dual-rod drive cylinders actuate, pulling the two guide rods back to the sides of the opening, fully exposing the area below the product.

[0025] The lower detector is activated to perform a second inspection of the product from below. The signals from both inspections are combined and sent to the control system for logical judgment to determine whether the product has a frame.

[0026] After inspection, the pusher plate rotates again, conveying the product to the corresponding discharge station. Based on the judgment result, the control system controls the rotation motor of the corresponding discharge station to drive the pusher plate to rotate, pushing the product out of the matching slot and into the designated discharge channel for collection, thus achieving automatic sorting of qualified and unqualified products. This cycle repeats, achieving automated continuous inspection and sorting.

[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention in any way. Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present invention. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the present invention.
