[0020] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 , a detection device for automobile steering arm production, including a production line conveyor belt 1 and a darkroom 4, a steering arm 2 of an automobile to be detected is placed above the production line conveyor belt 1, a support frame 3 is arranged below the production line conveyor belt 1, the outside of the darkroom 4 is fixed by a gantry 5, a microprocessor 6 is arranged on the top of the gantry 5, a WIFI communication module 7 is electrically connected to the microprocessor 6, the microprocessor 6 is electrically connected to an operation box 8 arranged on the side of the darkroom 4, the microprocessor 6 is electrically connected to a photoelectric signal processor 9 fixedly arranged on the top of the darkroom 4, a laser transmitter 10 is electrically connected to one side of the bottom of the photoelectric signal processor 9, and a photoelectric detector 12 is electrically connected to the other side of the bottom of the photoelectric signal processor 9. It is a mature existing technology to detect whether the parts are qualified by laser, and its specific working principle and structure will not be repeated here one by one;

[0021] The operation box 8 includes a single chip microcomputer 801 , to which a display screen 802 , function buttons 805 and a lateral switch 806 are electrically connected. A numeric keyboard 803 electrically connected to the single chip microcomputer 801 is arranged on the side of the function button 805 .

[0022] Specifically, the support frame 3 is a height-adjustable hydraulic support seat, and the support frame 3 is fixed on the ground. This arrangement facilitates the adjustment of the height of the conveyor belt 1 of the production line, so as to adapt to gantries 5 and darkrooms 4 of different sizes.

[0023] Specifically, the photoelectric signal processor 9 is connected to the photoelectric detector 12 via a commutation joint 11. This arrangement facilitates adjusting the receiving angle of the photoelectric detector 12 via the commutation joint 11 when necessary, so that the photoelectric detector 12 can receive the laser signal reflected by the steering arm 2 of the vehicle to be detected.

[0024] Specifically, two blackout cloths 16 are arranged on the side of the darkroom 4. The conveyor belt 1 of the production line drives the steering arm 2 of the car to be inspected to pass through a blackout cloth 16 and enter the darkroom 4 for inspection, and then drives the steering arm 2 of the car to be inspected to be transported out through another blackout cloth 16. Such an arrangement can reduce the influence of the outside of the darkroom 4 on the inside through the two blackout cloths 16, thereby improving the accuracy of laser detection.

[0025] Specifically, a motor 13 is arranged inside the darkroom 4, above the shading cloth 16 on the material incoming side of the steering arm 2 of the automobile to be inspected. The motor 13 is connected to the cleaning roller 15 through a transmission belt 14. The cleaning roller 15 is treated with anti-static treatment.

[0026] Specifically, the single chip computer 801 is electrically connected to a numeric keypad 803, and a voice alarm 804 electrically connected to the single chip computer 801 is arranged above the numeric keypad 803. This arrangement makes it easy to start the voice alarm 804 to sound an alarm when unqualified parts are detected, prompting nearby staff to pick out the unqualified parts.

[0027] Working principle: When using this device, first, the microprocessor 6 is electrically connected to the external power grid, and the external power grid is used to power this device, and the frequency of the WIFI communication module 7 is coordinated with the frequency of the remote control end of the staff, and the automobile steering arm 2 to be tested is placed above the conveyor belt 1 of the production line. The conveyor belt 1 of the production line controls the automobile steering arm 2 to be tested to pass through the blackout cloth 16 and enter the darkroom 4. Under the control of the microprocessor 6, the photoelectric signal processor 9 generates a laser through the laser transmitter 10, and after irradiating it on the automobile steering arm 2 to be tested, it is reflected out, and the reflected laser is received by the photoelectric detector 12. The photoelectric detector 12 feeds back the received laser signal information to the photoelectric signal processor 9 for processing, and the processed result is fed back to the microprocessor 6. The microprocessor 6 compares the detected photoelectric signal with the feedback signal of the standard part, and detects the flatness and bending angle of the automobile steering arm production surface by laser reflection measurement. The detection result is stored in the microprocessor 6. When the detection result does not meet the standard, a wireless signal is sent through the WIFI communication module 7 to prompt the staff to pick up the automobile steering arm 2 to be tested and collect it for recycling and reprocessing.
