Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automotive parts processing technology, and in particular to a fully automatic identification and detection device for automotive parts processing. Background Technology

[0002] Visual inspection uses machines to replace human eyes for measurement and judgment. It involves using machine vision products (image acquisition devices) to convert the captured target into image signals, which are then transmitted to a dedicated image processing system. Based on pixel distribution, brightness, color, and other information, the signals are converted into digital signals. The image system performs various calculations on these signals to extract the target's features, and then controls the on-site equipment based on the judgment results. It is a valuable inspection mechanism used in production, assembly, packaging, and automotive parts. It has immeasurable value in detecting defects and preventing defective products from being delivered to consumers.

[0003] The visual inspection equipment for automotive parts on the market cannot be easily adjusted according to the user's habits and height, causing inconvenience to the user. Furthermore, it cannot be easily moved when the inspection equipment needs to be moved, nor can it be placed stably when the inspection equipment does not need to be moved, which can lead to shaking during the inspection process due to accidents, thus hindering its widespread use. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention addresses the problem of overly simplistic solutions in existing technologies by providing a significantly different solution. To overcome the aforementioned deficiencies of existing technologies, the present invention provides a fully automated identification and inspection device for automotive parts processing, aiming to solve the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a fully automatic identification and inspection device for automotive parts processing, comprising: an inspection machine body, a work platform for fixing workpieces is provided on the top of the inspection machine body, a cooperative robotic arm for gripping workpieces is provided on one side of the inspection machine body, and a mechanical gripper is connected to the cooperative robotic arm, forming a fully automatic structure.

[0006] The inspection machine body adopts a commercially available structure, primarily based on optical imaging, image processing, and intelligent analysis technologies. It captures images using high-precision sensors and automatically identifies defects or dimensional deviations. The specific process is as follows: 1. Optical Imaging and Image Acquisition A high-resolution CCD or CMOS sensor, optical lens, and light source system are used to focus the light reflected from the surface of a component into a clear image. The sensor converts the optical signal into a digital signal, forming processable image data.

[0007] 2. Image preprocessing and feature extraction Preprocessing: Denoising, contrast enhancement, and other operations are performed on the original image to improve image quality and reduce uneven lighting or noise interference.

[0008] Feature extraction: Using edge detection, shape recognition, color analysis and other technologies, key features of parts (such as edges, size, surface texture, etc.) are extracted.

[0009] 3. Intelligent analysis and defect detection Standard comparison: The extracted features are compared with preset quality standards (such as dimensional tolerances and surface defect thresholds) to determine whether the parts meet the requirements.

[0010] Defect classification: Identify and classify defect types such as scratches, missing material, and burrs using deep learning or traditional algorithms.

[0011] 4. Result Output and Feedback Control Results output: The test results are output in the form of digital signals, which can display the location, type and severity of defects.

[0012] Automatic control: After integration with the production line, it can automatically reject defective products or adjust production parameters to achieve intelligent manufacturing.

[0013] In use, the workpiece to be inspected is picked up onto the work platform by the collaborative robotic arm and mechanical gripper. After the workpiece is fixed and stabilized, the inspection machine body inspects the workpiece. This design forms an automated structure, which saves time and effort and improves the efficiency of workpiece inspection.

[0014] Preferably, protective frames are provided on both sides of the testing machine body, and a mounting bracket is connected to one side of the testing machine body.

[0015] The two protective frames form mounting cavities on opposite sides for installing the testing machine body. This design protects the testing machine body and extends its service life. The mounting frame is used to install the display screen attached to the testing machine body for operators to read data.

[0016] Preferably, the working platform is provided with a mounting plate, and the mounting plate is pre-set with mounting holes, and the mounting holes are provided at equal intervals.

[0017] The mounting plate is used to install clamps for fixing and limiting automotive parts. Workers can install the specified clamps according to the model of the automotive parts and insert bolts into the mounting holes to fix the clamps to the mounting plate.

[0018] Preferably, the collaborative robotic arm includes a support rod, a limiting frame, a connecting arm, a movable arm, and a pneumatic push rod; The support rod is vertically installed on one side of the testing machine body; The limiting bracket is located at the top of the support rod, and the limiting bracket has a pre-set installation cavity; The connecting arm is set parallel to the mounting cavity of the limit frame; One end of the movable arm is movably connected to the connecting arm via a turntable, and the other end of the movable arm is connected to the mechanical gripper; The pneumatic push rod is vertically mounted on one side of the support rod, and the output end of the pneumatic push rod is connected to the connecting arm.

[0019] The support rod provides fixed support for the limiting frame, and the support rod and the limiting frame are fixedly connected. The mounting cavity of the limiting frame has a pre-installed bearing for connection with the connecting arm, allowing the connecting arm to swing up and down within the mounting cavity. The connecting arm, in conjunction with the movable arm, adjusts the position of the mechanical gripper, with an adjustment radius of R1100mm-R2700mm. The pneumatic actuator uses a commercially available structure and serves as the drive source for the up-and-down swing of the connecting arm.

[0020] Preferably, the bottom of the support rod is provided with a first connecting sleeve.

[0021] The support rod and the first connecting sleeve are fixedly connected, and the support rod is connected to the column through the first connecting sleeve.

[0022] Preferably, the movable arm is provided with a second connecting sleeve, and the movable arm and the mechanical gripper form a detachable structure through the second connecting sleeve.

[0023] The mechanical gripper adopts a structure already available on the market and can rotate 360°. The second connecting sleeve is connected to the movable arm by bolts. This design not only ensures the stability of the connection, but also facilitates the replacement and maintenance of the mechanical gripper by the staff in the future.

[0024] Preferably, it also includes a pneumatic control box, which is mounted on the support rod and is electrically connected to the collaborative robotic arm.

[0025] The pneumatic control box adopts an existing structure on the market. Staff can edit the program through the pneumatic control box according to actual needs, thereby integrating automated control and collaborative robotic arms. This technical means is common knowledge, and this application only requires protection of the mechanical structure, so the circuit part will not be described in detail.

[0026] Preferably, it also includes a support mechanism, which comprises a column and a base; The column is located below the support rod; The base is installed on the lower end face of the column.

[0027] The support mechanism is designed to provide fixed support for the collaborative robotic arm. The column and base are welded together, and this welding design ensures the stability of the connection.

[0028] Preferably, the column is connected to the first connecting sleeve, and the column and the support rod form a detachable structure through the first connecting sleeve.

[0029] The detachable structure design creates a modular design, which not only facilitates movement and transportation but also makes it easier for staff to perform designated replacement and maintenance procedures later, demonstrating the practicality of this device.

[0030] Preferably, the base has a rectangular structure and is provided with fixing holes, and multiple angled supports are provided at equal intervals between the base and the column.

[0031] The rectangular base increases the contact area between the column and the ground, ensuring the stability of the collaborative robotic arm's fixed support. Furthermore, bolts can be inserted into the fixing holes to ensure the stability of the base's fixed connection to the external environment. The angled support design increases the overall strength of the support mechanism, further ensuring the stability of the collaborative robot's fixed support.

[0032] The beneficial effects of this invention are: In use, the workpiece to be inspected is gripped onto the work platform by a collaborative robotic arm and a mechanical gripper. After the workpiece is fixed and stabilized, the inspection machine body inspects the workpiece. This design forms an automated structure, saves time and labor, improves the inspection efficiency of the workpiece, and is therefore conducive to its widespread use. Attached Figure Description
