Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of glass testing technology, and in particular to a multifunctional glass quality testing device. Background Technology

[0002] Glass is a widely used industrial product, essential for everything from architectural decoration to everyday products, highlighting its crucial role in industrial development. During glass production and processing, quality inspections are necessary to assess aspects such as the presence of defects, light transmittance, and compressive strength. This inspection process is complex and crucial for ensuring the safe use of glass. Existing glass inspection equipment is relatively limited in function, typically using visual or optical inspection systems to detect surface defects and light transmittance. For compressive strength testing, current technologies often involve cumbersome follow-up procedures if damage occurs, requiring manual handling of broken glass and posing safety hazards. Therefore, this invention proposes a quality inspection device that simulates actual glass installation conditions, inspecting the surface and defects of glass, performing compressive strength testing, and addressing broken glass that fails to meet quality requirements, thus preventing installation hazards. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention can detect the quality of glass surfaces and defects, perform pressure tests, and process glass that does not meet quality requirements and is broken, thus avoiding potential installation hazards.

[0004] The technical solution used in this invention is as follows: A multifunctional glass quality inspection device includes a base, with conveyor belts on both sides of one end of the base for transporting objects. A connecting rod is fixedly mounted on the base, and a top support is mounted at the top of the connecting rod. A mounting seat is fixedly mounted inside the top support, and a vision inspection system is mounted on the mounting seat for visually inspecting surface defects of the objects. A transfer and collection component is mounted on the base for transferring objects to the inspection area and collecting damaged objects. The transfer and collection component includes a bottom moving platform slidably mounted on the base, a collection box fixedly mounted on the bottom moving platform, a pressure cylinder inside the collection box, and an adsorption support electric cylinder for adsorbing and supporting objects on the bottom moving platform. Processing components are arranged in a circular array on the top support, and each processing component includes a sliding seat slidably mounted on the circumference of the top support, with a lifting electric... The cylinder, specifically the telescopic rod of the lifting electric cylinder, is equipped with a cleaning mating plate. A positioning element is located on the base, positioned above the collection box, for positioning the installed object. The positioning element includes two diagonally arranged limiting mounting platforms, fixedly mounted on the base. Two limiting frames are rotatably mounted on the limiting mounting platforms, each with a cleaning groove and a clamping component. The cleaning mating plate and cleaning groove are slidably engaged to clean residual object fragments. Four limiting frames on the two diagonally arranged limiting mounting platforms combine to form a closed quadrilateral, positioning and fixing the object on all four sides. Two crushing components are mounted on the connecting rod for crushing damaged objects. These two crushing components are diagonally arranged and include a deflector mounted rotatably on the connecting rod. A crushing mounting seat is slidably mounted on the deflector, and a crushing cylinder is mounted on the crushing mounting seat.

[0005] Furthermore, the transfer collection device includes a control cylinder fixedly mounted on the base, which is used to control the movement of the bottom moving platform; the end of the telescopic rod of the adsorption support electric cylinder is provided with an adsorption head for adsorbing and supporting objects; a guide cone is provided inside the collection box; and a pressure cylinder is located inside the guide cone. The pressure cylinder applies pressure to the surface of the object to detect the compressive strength of the object.

[0006] Furthermore, the processing component includes a control gear ring rotatably mounted on the top support, and a motor fixedly mounted on the circumference of the top support. A gear is mounted on the output shaft of the motor, and the gear and the control gear ring form a gear pair. A lead screw and a guide rod are fixedly mounted on the slide block, and the lead screw and the guide rod are slidably mounted on the top support. A lead screw gear is rotatably mounted on the circumference of the top support, and the lead screw gear and the lead screw form a helical pair. The lead screw gear also forms a gear pair with the control gear ring.

[0007] Furthermore, the positioning component includes a limiting rotating shaft fixedly connected to the limiting frame, the limiting rotating shaft being rotatably mounted on the limiting mounting platform, a controllable fixed gear being rotatably mounted on the limiting mounting platform, and a fixed ring being fixedly mounted thereon.

[0008] Furthermore, electromagnetic clamps are provided on the inner sides of both the controllable fixed gear and the fixed ring, and the two ends of the limiting shaft are located on the inner sides of the electromagnetic clamps.

[0009] Furthermore, the positioning component includes a deflection control cylinder mounted on the limiting mounting platform. A control rack is provided on the telescopic rod of the deflection control cylinder. The control rack and the controllable fixed gear form a gear pair. When the electromagnetic clamp plate inside the controllable fixed gear clamps the end of the fixed limiting rotating shaft, it drives the cleaning groove and the limiting frame to rotate synchronously.

[0010] Furthermore, the clamping component includes a clamping electric cylinder mounted on a limiting frame, and clamping plates are provided on the telescopic rods at both ends of the clamping electric cylinder for clamping and fixing the side of the object.

After the deflection, the limiting frames are away from the side of the object, so that the corresponding side of the object is exposed. The other three limiting frames continue to be located on the side of the object. Then, the side of the object is visually inspected by the visual inspection system; (3) In this invention, when the object strength test is performed, when the glass breaks under the test pressure, the object is hammered by the crushing cylinder to crush it and then shaken into the collection box, replacing manual processing and facilitating subsequent recycling.

[0023] A transfer and collection device is provided on the base 1 for transferring objects to the detection area and collecting damaged objects. The transfer and collection device includes a bottom moving platform 16 slidably mounted on the base 1, a collection box 18 fixedly mounted on the bottom moving platform 16, a pressure cylinder 20 inside the collection box 18, and an adsorption support electric cylinder 15 for adsorbing and supporting objects on the bottom moving platform 16. The transfer and collection device includes a control cylinder 17 fixedly mounted on the base 1 for controlling the movement of the bottom moving platform 16.

[0025] A positioning element is provided on the base 1 for positioning and installing objects. The positioning element is located above the collection box 18.

The cleaning mating plate 11 slides with the cleaning groove 2901 to clean up residual object fragments. The two diagonally arranged limiting... On the mounting platform 31, four limiting frames 29 are combined to form a closed quadrilateral to position and fix the four sides of the object. The positioning component also includes a limiting rotating shaft 2902 fixedly connected to the limiting frame 29. The limiting rotating shaft 2902 is rotatably mounted on the limiting mounting platform 31.

[0026] The positioning component also includes a deflection control cylinder 32 mounted on the limiting mounting platform 31. A control rack 33 is mounted on the telescopic rod of the deflection control cylinder 32. The control rack 33 and the controllable fixed gear 34 form a gear pair. When the electromagnetic clamping plate inside the controllable fixed gear 34 clamps the end of the fixed limiting shaft 2902, it drives the cleaning groove 2901 and the limiting frame 29 to rotate synchronously. The clamping component also includes a clamping electric cylinder 30 mounted on the limiting frame 29. Clamping plates 36 are mounted on the telescopic rods at both ends of the clamping electric cylinder 30 for clamping and fixing the side of the object.

[0027] Two crushing components are provided on the connecting rod 2 for crushing damaged objects. The two crushing components are arranged diagonally. Each crushing component includes a deflector table 25 rotatably mounted on the connecting rod 2, a crushing mounting seat 23 slidably mounted on the deflector table 25, and a crushing cylinder 24 mounted on the crushing mounting seat 23. The crushing component also includes a second motor 21 fixedly mounted on the connecting rod 2. The output shaft of the second motor 21 is equipped with a second motor 21, and the second motor 21 and the deflector table 25 form a gear pair for adjusting the deflection angle of the deflector table 25. A first lead screw motor 26 is fixedly mounted on the deflector table 25, and a belt structure is provided on the output shaft of the first lead screw motor 26. A second lead screw 27 and a second guide rod 28 are fixedly mounted on the crushing mounting seat 23. The second lead screw 27 and the second guide rod 28 are slidably mounted on the deflector table 25. One end of the belt structure on the output shaft of the first lead screw motor 26 and the second lead screw 27 form a helical pair to control the movement of the crushing mounting seat 23.

[0028] Working principle: The conveyor belt 3 transports the object. During transport, the object is positioned and supported on both sides. When the object is transported above the adsorption support cylinder 15, the adsorption support cylinder 15 operates to adsorb and support the object. Then, the control cylinder 17 operates, and the bottom moving platform 16 moves, causing the adsorption support cylinder 15 to transfer the object to the detection area. The adsorption support cylinder 15 transfers the object to the height of the positioning part (if the detection is qualified, the adsorption support cylinder 15 can also adsorb and support the object for manual collection). At this time, the deflection control cylinder 32 controls the movement of the control rack 33. Under gear transmission, the controllable fixed gear 34 moves, and the electromagnetic clamping plate inside the controllable fixed gear 34 clamps and fixes the limiting shaft 2902, so that the limiting shaft 2902 and the limiting frame 29 rotate synchronously. Thus, the four limiting frames 29 combine to form a closed quadrilateral. The clamping plate 36 is moved by the clamping electric cylinder 30 to position and fix the four sides of the object. The clamping and fixing of the four sides of the object simulates the situation when the object is in use, so that the subsequent test results are more accurate. The limiting shaft 2902 is clamped and fixed by the electromagnetic clamping plate inside the fixing ring 35 to stabilize the state of the limiting frame 29.

[0029] After positioning, the surface of the object is visually inspected by the vision inspection system 5. For the side inspection (since the four sides of the object are obscured to simulate real-world use), the deflection control cylinder 32 controls the movement of the rack 33. Under gear transmission, the controllable fixed gear 34 rotates. The clamping state of the limiting shaft 2902 is controlled by the fixing ring 35 and the electromagnetic clamp inside the controllable fixed gear 34 to control the rotation of different limiting frames 29, i.e., on the same limiting mounting platform 31. An electromagnetic clamp inside a controllable fixed gear 34 releases its grip on the limiting shaft 2902. When the rack 33 is controlled to move, the controllable fixed gear 34 rotates independently, without causing the limiting frame 29 to rotate. In this way, the limiting frames 29 on the four sides of the object are deflected individually. After deflection, the limiting frames 29 move away from the sides of the object, exposing the corresponding sides of the object. The other three limiting frames 29 remain on the sides of the object. Then, the sides of the object are visually inspected by the vision inspection system 5.

[0030] During the object strength test, the collection box 18 moves to below the object, and the pressure cylinder 20 operates. The end of the extension rod of the pressure cylinder 20 is equipped with a pressure part, which applies pressure to the surface of the object. If the object is not damaged under the test pressure, then the object quality meets the requirements. If the object breaks (due to safety hazards caused by human handling), the screw motor 26 operates, causing the screw 27 and the crushing mounting base 23 to move, so that the crushing cylinder 24 is positioned above the object. The motor 21 operates, and under gear transmission, the deflection table 25 rotates to change the position of the crushing cylinder 24, and the two crushing components are respectively crushed above the object. The crushing cylinder 24 hammers the object to crush it, and then shakes it into the collection box 18 (the collection box 18 can be equipped with an opening and closing door on the side for easy collection of object fragments), replacing manual processing and facilitating subsequent recycling; further, the lifting cylinder 10 controls the removal plate 11 to descend, so that the removal plate 11 is located outside the limit frame 29. The motor 8 works, and under the gear transmission, controls the gear ring 6 to rotate. The lead screw gear 13 also rotates, causing the lead screw 12 and the slide 9 to move radially, thereby making the removal plate 11 slide into the removal groove 2901, and pushing out the object fragments remaining between the clamping plates 36 through the removal plate 11.
