[0040] Example 2

[0041] See also Figure 3-Figure 4 This embodiment discloses an appearance inspection device, including a conveyor line (not shown in the figure), a photographing and identifying component 14, a reflector lifting component 15, and the universal tray of Embodiment 1. The photographing and identifying component 14 includes a camera 16 and an identification system, and the camera 16 is located above the conveyor line; the universal tray is arranged on the conveyor line, and the conveyor line drives the universal tray to move; the reflector lifting component 15 includes a reflector 7 and a lifting driving mechanism for driving the reflector 7 to lift and lower, and the reflector 7 matches the second receiving slot 5 on the universal tray.

[0042] The conveyor line of this embodiment can be conveyed by belt conveyor, which can be specifically referred to in the prior art, in order to drive the universal tray to be transferred between each station. The recognition system of the photographing and recognition component 14 can also be referred to in the prior art image recognition module, which can recognize and analyze the image captured by the camera 16 and output the recognition result.

[0043] Furthermore, the lifting drive mechanism includes a lifting frame and a power source 17 for driving the lifting frame to move up and down; a mirror bracket 20 is provided on the lifting frame, and the upper surface of the mirror bracket 20 and a side close to the communication module 8 are open; the reflector 7 is arranged on the mirror bracket 20, and the mirror surface of the reflector 7 faces the side close to the communication module 8.

[0044] Further, the lifting drive mechanism of the present embodiment is arranged on one side of the conveyor line. The lifting frame includes a first connecting plate 18 and at least one second connecting plate 19. The power source 17 of the present embodiment adopts a cylinder, the cylinder body of which is fixed on the frame, and the telescopic rod of the cylinder is connected to the first connecting plate 18. One end of the second connecting plate 19 is connected to the first connecting plate 18, and the other end extends to the middle of the conveyor line and extends to a position corresponding to the second receiving groove 5 of the universal tray. The mirror bracket 20 is connected to the protruding end of the second connecting plate 19, and the mirror bracket 20 extends downward so that the reflector 7 is located below the second connecting plate 19. In this way, when the universal tray moves to the bottom of the camera 16, the power source 17 drives the lifting frame to descend, so that the reflector 7 on the mirror bracket 20 is located in the second receiving groove 5, so that the information on the side of the communication module 8 is mapped on the reflector 7, so that it is photographed by the camera 16 located above; after the shooting and recognition are completed, the power source 17 drives the lifting frame to rise, and the conveyor line drives the universal tray to move forward, and continues to perform the appearance inspection of the communication module 8 of the next position or the next universal tray.

In this way, the first receiving slot 4 and the second receiving slot 5 on the universal tray are arranged in two rows, corresponding to the conveying direction of the conveyor line, and matched with the reflector lifting assembly 15 on both sides of the conveyor line, so that each shooting and recognition action can complete the appearance inspection of more communication modules 8, thereby improving the inspection efficiency.

[0047] When the universal tray reaches the identification area of ​​the shooting identification component 14, the universal tray stops on the conveyor line, and the power source 17 drives the prism to descend and put it into the second receiving slot 5 on the universal tray. The camera 16 located above identifies and proofreads the label information on the upper surface of the communication module 8 and the side refracted by the prism. After completing this process, the power source 17 drives the prism to rise and separate from the universal tray. After the universal tray leaves the station, it enters the next process along the conveyor line. In this way, it is ensured that when there are a large number of universal trays, there is no need to purchase prisms in large quantities. It is only necessary to add a reflector lifting component 15 in the appearance inspection station to reuse the prism, thereby reducing the material cost of the overall project.

[0048] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present invention. Therefore, any modification, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
