Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of fabric inspection machines, and more particularly to a fabric inspection machine that integrates a quality inspection collaborative interactive suite. Background Technology

[0002] It is known that textiles (or fabrics) undergo defect inspection before shipment, and this inspection is typically performed by an inspector operating a fabric inspection machine. The main structure of a conventional fabric inspection machine includes: an operating platform, a fabric conveying mechanism comprising a feeding module and a receiving module, and an inspection platform (or visual inspection platform). During defect inspection, the inspector stands in front of the operating platform and controls the feeding module to feed the fabric and the receiving module to receive the fabric by operating a controller. As the fabric is conveyed from the feeding module to the receiving module, an inspected area of ​​the fabric passes through the inspection platform, allowing the inspector to inspect this area for defects. If the inspector finds a defect in the fabric area, they operate the controller to stop the fabric's movement. The inspector then determines whether the defect is repairable; if repairable, it is repaired immediately; otherwise, the defect is marked.

[0003] To improve fabric inspection efficiency, Taiwan Patent No. M571486 discloses a fabric inspection device integrated into a fabric inspection machine. The device includes at least one linear light source, N cameras, and an electronic device (e.g., an embedded computer), where N is a positive integer. During normal operation, the linear light source provides detection light to illuminate an inspected section of a fabric, causing the N cameras to capture N sub-fabric images from that section. Furthermore, the electronic device can use a pre-trained defect detection model to perform defect detection on each of the sub-fabric images, thereby confirming whether the inspected section contains defects. When the electronic device detects a defect in the inspected section, it stops the inspected section on the inspection platform, allowing the inspector to verify the accuracy of the defect detection results.

[0004] Although the fabric inspection device improves the efficiency of fabric inspection to some extent, unfortunately, according to feedback from fabric inspectors, the device exhibits the following drawbacks in practical use:

[0005] (1) When a specific section of the fabric containing one or more defects is detected and stops at the fabric inspection platform, the fabric inspection device fails to provide the relative positions of these defects at the same time, so that the inspector still needs to spend time finding these defects from the specific section.

[0006] (2) If the fabric inspector discovers a misjudgment in the defect detection results after review (i.e., a specific section that was previously deemed to be without defects is found to have one or more defects), the inspector can only record (mark) the misjudged defect detection results and cannot delete them online. In other words, the fabric inspection device does not have the function of deleting misjudged defect detection results online.

[0007] (3) When the fabric inspector finds an error in the defect category identification after review (e.g., the yarn skipping is identified as a skipped yarn), they can only record (mark) it and cannot correct the defect category identification error online. In other words, the fabric inspection device does not have the function of correcting defect category identification errors online.

[0008] (4) If the fabric inspector finds that a defect was missed during the inspection, it indicates that there is a defect type that the fabric inspection device cannot identify. In this case, the inspector can only make a record (mark). In other words, the fabric inspection device does not have the function of adding defect types and correcting defect inspection results online.

[0009] In summary, it can be seen that conventional fabric inspection devices have many shortcomings in practical applications and need to be improved. In view of this, the inventors of this invention have made great efforts to research and create, and have finally developed a fabric inspection machine that integrates a quality inspection collaborative interactive kit.

[0139] To further understand the structure, features, purpose, and advantages of the present invention, a detailed description of the preferred embodiments is provided below, accompanied by accompanying drawings.

[0140] Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional diagram of a collaborative interactive suite for quality inspection. Furthermore, Figure 2 , Figure 3 These are first and second perspective views of the fabric inspection machine integrating a quality inspection collaborative interactive kit according to the present invention. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the fabric inspection machine 2 has at least one drive wheel 21 and a roll-to-roll mechanism, wherein the roll-to-roll mechanism includes a feeding module 22 and a take-up module 23, and is used to convey a piece of fabric within the fabric inspection machine 2. Furthermore, the fabric inspection machine 2 also includes a visual inspection platform 20, such that the fabric fed by the feeding module 22 must pass through the visual inspection platform 20 before being taken up by the take-up module 23.

[0141] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 ,and Figure 3 As shown, the quality inspection collaborative interactive kit 1 includes: a rectangular support plate 11, a first linear light source 12, a second linear light source 13, M machine vision devices 14, a metering wheel 15, a host electronic device 16, a display device 17, an electronic device 18, and a local data center 1C. The M machine vision devices 14 have a total of N lenses 141, and each machine vision device 14 is equipped with a defect detection model. More specifically, M is a positive integer of at least 1, and N is a positive integer.

[0142] Furthermore, Figure 4 , Figure 5The first and second perspective views are of the rectangular support plate 11, the first linear light source 12, the second linear light source 13, and the M machine vision devices 14. According to the design of the present invention, each machine vision device 14 has multiple fixing plates 14P on two side surfaces of its housing 140, and these fixing plates 14P are connected to the H-shaped support frame 1B, thereby fixing it to the H-shaped support frame 1B. Furthermore, since the surface of the housing 140 has multiple lifting rings 142, the M machine vision devices 14 and the H-shaped support frame 1B can be suspended together using cables. On the other hand, the rectangular support plate 11 is connected to the H-shaped support frame 1B via multiple connecting ribs 11R, thereby being fixed at a position (height) so that the fabric conveyed by the roll-to-roll mechanism can pass through the rectangular support plate 11. Furthermore, there is a gap between the rectangular support plate 11 and the H-shaped support frame 1B.

[0143] Figure 6 This is a perspective view of the rectangular support plate 11, the first linear light source 12, and the second linear light source 13. Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the rectangular support plate 11 has a first long side 111, a first short side 112, a second long side 113, and a second short side 114, and has an elongated opening 110 thereon. In one embodiment, the first long side 111 has a first rounded corner structure 1111, and the second long side 113 has a second rounded corner structure 1131. With this design, when the fabric passes through the rectangular support plate 11, the first rounded corner structure 1111 provides a first support force for the fabric, and the second rounded corner structure 1131 provides a second support force for the fabric, and an inspected section of the fabric is laid flat between the first long side 111 and the second long side 113.

[0144] To explain in more detail, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the elongated opening 110 has a first long edge, a second long edge, a first short edge, and a second short edge. The first long edge is at a first distance from the first long side 111, and the second long edge is at a second distance from the second long side 113. The ratio of the second distance to the third distance is between 1.5 and 3. In other words, the elongated opening 110 is not located in the middle of the rectangular support plate 11.

[0145] Figure 7 This is an exploded three-dimensional view of the first linear light source 12, and Figure 8This is an exploded perspective view of the second linear light source 13. According to the design of this invention, the first linear light source 12 is connected to the bottom of the H-shaped support frame 1B, thereby being fixed at a first position higher than that position. Specifically, the first linear light source 12 includes a first left connecting plate 12L1, a first right connecting plate 12R1, a first left pivot plate 12L2, a first right pivot plate 12R2, and a first linear lamp 120. The first left connecting plate 12L1 and the first right connecting plate 12R1 are connected to the bottom of the H-shaped support frame 1B. The first left pivot plate 12L2 is pivotally connected to the first left connecting plate 12L1, and the first right pivot plate 12R2 is pivotally connected to the first right connecting plate 12R1. The two ends of the first linear lamp 120 are pivotally connected to the first left pivot plate 12L2 and the first right pivot plate 12R2. With this design, the first linear light source 12 is used to generate a first detection light, and the first light path of the first detection light has a first angle with a first normal perpendicular to the surface of the rectangular support plate 11, so that the first detection light can illuminate the front side of the fabric.

[0146] Conversely, the second linear light source 13 is connected to the bottom of the rectangular support plate 11, and is thus fixed at a second position below that position. Specifically, the second linear light source 13 includes a second left connecting plate 13L1, a second right connecting plate 13R1, a second left pivot plate 13L2, a second right pivot plate 13R2, and a second linear lamp 130. The second left connecting plate 13L1 and the second right connecting plate 13R1 are connected to the bottom of the rectangular support plate 11. The second left pivot plate 13L2 is pivotally connected to the second left connecting plate 13L1. The second right pivot plate 13R2 is pivotally connected to the second right connecting plate 13R1. The two ends of the second linear lamp 130 are pivotally connected to the second left pivot plate 13L2 and the second right pivot plate 13R2. In this design, the second linear light source 13 generates a second detection light, and the second light path of the second detection light forms a second angle with a second normal perpendicular to the bottom surface of the rectangular support plate 11, allowing the second detection light to illuminate the back of the fabric through the elongated opening 110. Furthermore, in one embodiment, the second angle is equal to the first angle, and M machine vision devices 14 are fixed at a third position above this position to face the rectangular support plate 11.

[0147] In more detail, the measuring wheel 15 is connected to the drive wheel 21, and the host electronic device 16 is coupled to the measuring wheel 15, the machine vision device 14, the second line light source 13, the first line light source 12, the display device 17, the electronic device 18, and the local data center 1C. In feasible embodiments, the host electronic device 16 may be, but is not limited to, an industrial computer, a desktop computer, or an embedded computer. On the other hand, the electronic device 18 may be, but is not limited to, a tablet computer, a smartphone, or an all-in-one computer. Furthermore, according to the present invention, the host electronic device 16 is configured to perform:

[0148] During the process of the roll-to-roll mechanism conveying the fabric, a meter reading is received from the meter wheel 15;

[0149] Based on the fabric's moving speed and the metering data, as the fabric passes the rectangular support plate 11, the machine vision device 14 is controlled to acquire 2N images from the inspected section of the fabric; wherein, the 2N images include N front-lit images and N back-lit images.

[0150] After acquiring the 2N images, the machine vision device 14 is controlled to enable the defect detection model to perform a defect detection process on each image, thereby determining whether each image contains at least one defect, and further confirming the defect type corresponding to each defect.

[0151] The K images that are detected to contain at least one defect are stored as K defective images; where K is a positive integer;

[0152] The display device 17 displays a first area and a plurality of second areas, and a horizontal scale and a vertical scale are respectively marked on a short side and a long side of the first area.

[0153] One of the defective images is displayed correspondingly in each of the second regions, and simultaneously, a horizontal length value and a vertical length value representing a location information of the defective image are displayed in each of the second regions; and

[0154] An inspection area is marked on the first region, and at least one first mark corresponding to at least one defect is displayed within the inspection area.

[0155] Specifically, Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of a display screen 170 of the display device 17. For example... Figure 9As shown, a first region 171 and a plurality of second regions 172 are displayed in the display screen 170. The first region 171 has a short side and a long side marked with a horizontal dimension (i.e., 10 inches, 20 inches, ..., 60 inches) and a vertical dimension (i.e., 4.1 yards, 5.2 yards, 6.4 yards, 7.6 yards, 8.7 yards), respectively. An inspection range 173 is marked on the first region 171, and at least one first mark corresponding to at least one defect is displayed within the inspection range 173. Furthermore, each of the second regions 172 displays a defective image, and simultaneously displays a horizontal length value (e.g., 22.2 inches) and a vertical length value (e.g., 8.6 yards) to indicate the location information of the defective image.

[0156] According to this design, after the quality inspection collaborative interactive kit 1 of the present invention completes the defect detection of the inspected section of the fabric (e.g., a piece of cloth), it immediately displays K defective images through the display device 17, and uses markings to intuitively highlight the location of the defect in each defective image in the inspected section of the fabric. Thus, when the quality inspector operates the roll-to-roll mechanism to stop the inspected section on the visual inspection platform 20, the inspector can find the corresponding defect location based on the first mark within the visual inspection range 173, and further confirm whether the defect detection result provided by the quality inspection collaborative interactive kit 1 of the present invention is correct.

Figure 10 As shown, in a first feasible embodiment, the quality inspection collaborative interactive kit 1 of the present invention further includes a broadcasting device 19 coupled to the host electronic device 16, and the host electronic device 16 is further configured to perform:

[0158] When a defective image is displayed in each of the second regions 172, the broadcasting device 19 is controlled to play the location information of the defective image and at least one type of defect it contains.

[0159] In a second feasible embodiment, the display device 17 has a speaker, and the host electronics 16 is further configured to perform:

[0160] When a defective image is displayed in each of the second regions 172, the display device 17 is controlled to play the position information of the defective image and at least one type of defect it contains through its loudspeaker.

[0161] Furthermore, in a third feasible embodiment, the quality inspection collaborative interaction kit 1 of the present invention further includes a head-mounted display 1A coupled to the host electronics 16, wherein the head-mounted display 1A is, for example, Apple's Vision Pro, and the host electronics 16 is further configured to perform:
