Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of special teaching equipment, in particular to a portable machine vision training teaching equipment. Background Art
[0002] As an application system, machine vision has gradually improved with the development of industrial automation. Because machine vision is a non-contact measurement method, it is often used to replace human vision, especially in dangerous environments that are not suitable for direct human operation or where human vision cannot meet the requirements. For example, in large-scale industrial production processes, using human vision to check product quality is inefficient and not very accurate. Using machine vision inspection methods can greatly improve production efficiency and the degree of production automation. Machine vision can identify the physical characteristics of the target object, including shape, color, characters, barcodes, etc., measure the geometric dimensions of the target object, locate the target object's position information, and detect the surface condition of the target object, thereby determining whether there are defects in the product during production, etc.
[0003] At present, the vigorous development of machine vision has made it necessary for colleges and universities to conduct more in-depth teaching in the field of machine vision to adapt to the development of industrial technology. Therefore, in recent years, machine vision technology has been opened in the core courses of automation majors. However, the current machine vision systems are all included in a large-scale mechatronic automation experimental platform. For example, Chinese patent CN213161977U discloses a teaching device for automatic material sorting system, which communicates with the grasping component, the conveying component and the sorting component through the controller to realize the automatic control of sorting different materials. The controller is a PLC controller (such as Siemens S7-200PLC CPU226). Regarding PLC controllers, Chinese patent CN212263902U discloses a PLC-based apple automatic sorting experimental device, which adopts a programmable logic controller (Programmable Logic Controller). A programmable logic controller (PLC) controls the corresponding sorter to automatically sort apples. By simulating the automatic apple sorting process, students can understand the working principles of each module of the automatic sorting experiment device and improve their practical training skills. A PLC is a digital computing controller with a microprocessor used for automated control. It can load control instructions into memory for storage and execution at any time. A programmable controller consists of functional units such as a CPU, instruction and data memory, input / output interfaces, a power supply, and digital-to-analog conversion.
[0004] Due to the high procurement cost of a large-scale mechatronic automated experimental platform, many colleges and universities lack machine vision teaching equipment, making it difficult to carry out machine vision teaching content normally. In addition, most machine vision teaching equipment on the market is large in size, which limits the venue of teaching demonstrations and can only be used in fixed and large test sites. It cannot meet the needs of college teachers to perform demonstration operations in the classroom, resulting in low teaching efficiency. Utility Model Content
