Description

Technical Field

[0002] In the field of machine vision inspection, using industrial cameras for image acquisition is a common method. However, the imaging effect of industrial cameras is limited by the illumination angle of the backlight, resulting in unsatisfactory fill light effect.

In practical applications, due to the limitation of the illumination angle of the backlight, there may be problems of local overexposure and local underexposure in image acquisition. The overexposed area may produce an image with excessive high brightness, making the outline of the object unclear and losing detail information; the underexposed area may cause the dark details of the image to be unclear, reducing the accuracy of detection.

[0037] The technical solution of the utility model is further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , this embodiment provides a backlight source, including:

[0039] Mounting seat 10;

[0040] A first light board 21 is arranged on the mounting base 10;

[0041] The second light panel 22 with adjustable angle is rotatably connected to the mounting base via the first rotating mounting member 221;

[0042] The angle-adjustable third lamp panel 23 is rotatably connected to the mounting base via the second rotatable mounting member 231 .

[0043] Specifically, the first rotating mounting member 221, the second rotating mounting member 231 and the mounting seat 10 are respectively connected via supporting shafts to achieve rotation adjustment of the lamp panel.

[0044] Specifically, the mounting base 10 includes two side panels arranged opposite to each other, the first light board 21, the second light board 22 and the third light board 23 are arranged between the two side panels, and both side edges of the first light board 21, the second light board 22 and the third light board 23 are connected to one side panel.

[0045] Among them, the mounting seat 10 is provided with:

[0046] A first limiting groove 11 is used to limit the rotation angle of the second lamp board 22, and a second limiting groove 12 is used to limit the rotation angle of the third lamp board 23; a first limiting member 222 connected to the second lamp board 22 is provided in the first limiting groove 11, and a second limiting member 232 connected to the third lamp board 23 is provided in the second limiting groove 12.

[0047] The first limiting member 222 and the second limiting member 232 are used to limit the rotation angle range of the second light board 22 and the third light board 23 to ensure that they work within a suitable angle range and avoid uneven lighting caused by excessively large or small rotation angles.

[0048] In this embodiment, the rotation angle range of the second light board 22 and the third light board 23 is 0 to 30 degrees.

[0049] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the backlight source further includes a first adjustment plate 51, a second adjustment plate 52 and a third adjustment plate 53. The first adjustment plate 51 is disposed on the mounting seat 10, and the first lamp board 21 is connected to the first adjustment plate 51; the second adjustment plate 52 is rotationally connected to the mounting seat through the first rotation mounting member 221, and the second lamp board 22 is connected to the second adjustment plate 52; the third adjustment plate 53 is rotationally connected to the mounting seat through the second rotation mounting member 231, and the third lamp board 23 is connected to the third adjustment plate 53.

[0050] The first lamp board 21 , the second lamp board 22 and the third lamp board 23 are indirectly connected to the mounting base 10 through the first adjustment plate 51 , the second adjustment plate 52 and the third adjustment plate 53 , respectively.

[0051] In addition, the first limiting groove 11 and the first limiting groove 11 are both arc-shaped grooves, and the setting of the arc-shaped grooves can adapt to the rotation path of the second lamp board 22 and the third lamp board 23.

[0052] The embodiment of the utility model provides a backlight source structure so that the backlight source can have a more uniform lighting angle, thereby improving the fill light effect of the industrial camera and achieving high-quality image acquisition and machine vision detection.

[0053] Specifically, the first light board 21, the second light board 22 and the third light board 23 are all provided with a light source, and the light source may be an LED or the like, for illuminating the detected object behind them.

[0054] Furthermore, a heat sink 11 is provided in the mounting base 10 for dissipating heat from the backlight source to improve battery life and extend service life.

[0060] In this embodiment, the second plate 32 and the third plate 33 are both arranged perpendicular to the first plate 31 , which can reduce the volume of the light source while achieving the diffusion effect of the inclined light generated on the second light board 22 and the third light board 23 .

[0065] The first rotating mounting member 221 and the second rotating mounting member 231 are symmetrical about the central axis of the first lamp board 21 , so that the second lamp board 22 and the third lamp board 23 are symmetrical in distribution and rotation direction.

[0066] In this embodiment, the rotation angles of the first light board 21, the second light board 22 and the third light board 23 are adjusted by a rotation control device. It can be understood that the rotation control device can be a manual or automatic control device.

[0067] In addition, the second lamp board 22 is detachably connected to the first end of the first lamp board 21 via a first positioning structure; and the third lamp board 23 is detachably connected to the second end of the first lamp board 21 via a second positioning structure.

[0068] The first positioning structure and the second positioning structure are used to realize the positioning and detachable connection of the second lamp board 22 and the third lamp board 23 to the first lamp board 21 respectively.

[0069] In this embodiment, the first positioning structure and the second positioning structure have the same structure, for example:

[0070] The first positioning structure and the second positioning structure respectively include a first plug-in end provided on the first lamp board 21 , and a second plug-in end provided on the second lamp board 22 and the third lamp board 23 , respectively. The second lamp board 22 and the third lamp board 23 are plug-connected to the first lamp board 21 , respectively.

[0071] Alternatively, the first positioning structure and the second positioning structure include a first magnet and a second magnet, respectively, and the second lamp board 22 and the third lamp board 23 are magnetically connected to the first lamp board 21, respectively.

[0072] The backlight source of the present invention is suitable for the field of machine vision detection, and can provide a better fill light effect in equipment such as industrial cameras, improve imaging quality, and enhance the accuracy and reliability of machine vision detection.
