Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of industrial production, and specifically relates to a modular camera module and a production line. Background Art

[0002] With the planning and development of China's robotics industry, there is a lot of room for the application of machine vision technology in the field of industrial production. In the workshop of the automobile welding production line, most of it is used in visual gluing. With the gradual improvement of technology, the application of visual guidance will become more and more extensive.

[0003] Currently, cameras are mainly installed in a fixed manner. For two or more material boxes, cameras need to be arranged in multiple arrangements or installed on grippers according to the material boxes. It is impossible to switch the camera's shooting position to ensure that one camera can perform shooting work on two or more material boxes, resulting in a high cost problem. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a modular camera module and a production line to solve the problem that the prior art cannot realize the switching action of the camera shooting position to ensure that one camera performs the shooting work on two or more material boxes, resulting in high cost.

[0005] One embodiment of the present invention provides a modular camera module, comprising:

[0006] Bracket,

[0007] A camera is slidably connected to the bracket via a sliding assembly;

[0008] The sliding assembly includes a driving member and a scissor-fork mechanism, wherein the driving member and the scissor-fork mechanism are mounted on the bracket, the driving member is used to drive the scissor-fork mechanism, and the scissor-fork mechanism is used to drive the camera to move on the bracket to switch the shooting position of the camera.

[0009] The modular camera module provided by the utility model has the following technical effects: the camera is slidably connected to the component through the sliding component, so as to realize the standardized and modular design of the camera, the sliding component and the bracket; since the sliding component includes a driving member and a scissor fork mechanism, the driving member actively drives the scissor fork mechanism, thereby driving the scissor fork mechanism to drive the camera to move on the bracket, and the shooting position of the camera can be quickly switched, so that only one camera is needed to meet the needs of fast and accurate shooting of two or more material boxes, thereby reducing production costs; at the same time, by combining the use of the scissor fork mechanism and adopting a short-stroke driving member to drive the scissor fork mechanism, it is ensured that a single camera driven by the scissor fork mechanism can meet the shooting needs of a large area; and by increasing / reducing the scissor fork components, the requirements of different sliding strokes and the needs of fast shooting can be met, ensuring that the camera shooting will not occupy the line beat, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0010] In one embodiment, the sliding assembly further includes a guide rail mechanism, and the guide rail mechanism includes:

[0011] Slide rails, installed on both sides of the bracket;

[0012] A slider is slidably connected to the slide rail, and the slider is connected to the scissor fork mechanism.

[0013] In this embodiment, since the slider is connected to the scissor fork mechanism, the scissor fork mechanism is driven to move by the driving member, thereby driving the slider to move horizontally on the slide rail, improving the sliding performance, ensuring the smooth effect of the camera during movement, and improving working stability and safety. At the same time, the guide rail mechanism is installed sideways, and the installation hole will not be blocked, which can achieve the effect of rapid installation, disassembly and replacement.

[0014] In one embodiment, the sliding assembly further includes an adjustment mechanism, and the adjustment mechanism includes:

[0015] A base, connected to the slider or the scissor fork mechanism, wherein the base is provided with a first recess;

[0016] The mounting block is provided with a second recess, wherein the second recess is arranged opposite to the first recess;

[0017] An adjusting ball center is arranged between the first recess and the second recess, and the adjusting ball center is fixedly connected with a rotating rod for mounting the camera;

[0018] A fastener, used to connect the mounting block to the base, and the mounting block and the base can be relatively separated or relatively close to each other through the fastener, so that the adjustment mechanism is in an active state or a locked state;

[0019] Wherein, when the adjustment mechanism is in an active state, the mounting block is relatively far away from the base, and the adjustment ball center and the rotating rod can rotate in the horizontal direction corresponding to the base and the mounting block to switch the shooting angle of the camera;

[0020] When the adjustment mechanism is in a locked state, the mounting block is relatively close to the base, so that the base and the mounting block can prevent the adjustment ball center and the rotating rod from moving.

[0021] In this embodiment, the camera is installed by a rotating rod fixed to the center of the adjustment ball, thereby realizing the connection between the camera and the center of the adjustment ball; the center of the adjustment ball is set between the first recess of the base and the second recess of the mounting block, and the base is connected to the mounting block by fasteners. Since the base is connected to the slider or the scissor fork mechanism, the camera is connected to the slider or the scissor fork mechanism, so that the camera can move with the movement of the slider or the scissor fork mechanism and switch the shooting position of the camera. At the same time, according to the needs of the site, the shooting angle of the camera can be efficiently adjusted through the above-mentioned adjustment mechanism to meet the needs of the camera to adjust the angle within a certain range, thereby ensuring that the shooting area of ​​the camera can more accurately match the site conditions and meet the needs of on-site shooting.

[0022] When the shooting angle of the camera needs to be adjusted, the fasteners are loosened so that the mounting block and the base can be relatively far apart, ensuring that the adjusting ball center and the rotating rod can move relative to the base and the mounting block, and the rotating rod on the adjusting ball center can be rotated to achieve the rotation of the camera at the bottom within a certain range, thereby switching the shooting angle of the camera. The operation is simple and there is no need to remove the connecting parts. After confirming that it is correct, the fasteners can be tightened so that the mounting block and the base can be relatively close to each other, thereby locking the position of the mounting block and the base, ensuring that the base and the mounting block can prevent the adjusting ball center and the rotating rod from moving, thereby preventing the adjusting ball center from moving on the base. By connecting the connecting block for mounting the camera with the rotating rod, the shooting angle of the camera can be flexibly and manually adjusted in multiple directions and angles by adjusting the fasteners.

[0023] In one of the embodiments, a connecting block is further included, wherein the connecting block is detachably connected to the camera, and the connecting block is detachably connected to the rotating rod.

[0024] In this embodiment, since the connecting block is detachably connected to the rotating rod and the camera respectively, when replacing the camera, only the connecting block and / or the camera need to be replaced, thereby achieving the effect of quick disassembly and assembly of the camera.

[0025] In one embodiment, limit assemblies are further provided at both ends of the bracket, and the slider, the adjustment mechanism and / or the camera are arranged between the two limit assemblies, and the limit assemblies include limit blocks and buffers.

[0026] In this embodiment, when the slider moves to the terminal position, the positioning and buffering and shock absorbing functions of the camera are realized through the terminal positioning of the slide rail and the limit block and buffer in the limit assembly.

[0027] In one embodiment, the drag chain has a built-in cable, and the cable is electrically connected to the camera;

[0028] And / or, a protective cover, wherein the protective cover is covered on the bracket, and the sliding assembly, the adjustment mechanism and the limiting assembly are arranged within the covering range of the protective cover.

[0029] In this embodiment, the drag chain can be used to pull and protect the network cables and wires in the camera module. The protective cover can be used to protect the internal structure, ensuring that the camera module can be used in harsh environments such as welding spatter.

[0030] In one embodiment, the sliding assembly further includes a supporting mechanism, and the supporting mechanism includes:

[0031] A support frame provided with a guide groove;

[0032] A support rod, the slider or the scissor fork mechanism is pressed on one end of the support rod, and a universal wheel is movably installed on the other end, and the universal wheel is pressed on the bottom surface of the guide groove.

[0033] In this embodiment, the linear motion of the support mechanism is achieved through the function of the guide groove. The universal wheels are connected together through the connecting block, which can increase the auxiliary support force of the camera in the vertical direction, reduce the force on the guide rail mechanism, and extend the life of the guide rail mechanism.

[0034] In one embodiment, a guide wheel is further mounted on the support rod, the guide wheel is rotatably connected to the support rod, and the guide wheel is disposed between two side walls of the guide groove.

[0035] In this embodiment, the guide wheels are connected together by a connecting block, which can provide a lateral guiding effect and reduce noise.

[0036] In one embodiment, a long notch for installing the driving member and the scissor fork mechanism is provided on one side of the bracket.

[0037] In this embodiment, a lateral elongated notch is provided on the mounting bracket, so that the installation and replacement of the driving member and the scissor fork mechanism can be realized.

[0038] In one embodiment, the scissor fork mechanism includes a multi-section scissor fork, the multi-section scissor fork includes an active scissor fork and a plurality of sections of driven scissor forks connected in sequence, the driving member is arranged at one end of the active scissor fork, and the other end of the active scissor fork is rotatably connected to one end of the plurality of sections of driven scissor forks;

[0039] Wherein, one end of the active scissors fork drives the other end of the active scissors fork to move as the driving member drives the several sections of driven scissors fork to drive the camera to move, and the driving member includes a driving cylinder.

[0040] In this embodiment, the driving member may be a driving cylinder. Since the scissor fork mechanism can achieve a larger sliding distance requirement through a short-stroke driving cylinder, the cost of purchased parts is saved. At the same time, when the sliding distance changes, the positions of the terminal positioning mechanism and the limit mechanism can be changed by increasing / reducing the driven scissor fork, and the other internal mechanisms do not need to be changed.

[0041] In one embodiment, the active scissors fork and the driven scissors fork both include a left scissors fork and a right scissors fork, the left scissors fork is rotatably connected to the right scissors fork, two driving cylinders are provided, and the two driving cylinders are respectively arranged at one end of the left scissors fork and the right scissors fork of the active scissors fork, and the other ends of the left scissors fork and the right scissors fork of the active scissors fork are respectively corresponding to the left scissors fork and the right scissors fork at one end of the several sections of driven scissors fork for rotationally connected; the camera is arranged at the other end of the several sections of driven scissors fork.

[0058] In this embodiment, the camera 3 is slidably connected to the assembly through the sliding assembly 2, so that the camera 3, the sliding assembly 2 and the bracket 1 are standardized and modularly designed. Since the sliding assembly 2 includes a driving member 21 and a scissor fork mechanism 22, the driving member 21 actively drives the scissor fork mechanism 22, thereby driving the scissor fork mechanism 22 to drive the camera 3 to move on the bracket 1, and can quickly switch the shooting position of the camera 3, so that only one camera 3 is needed to meet the needs of fast and accurate shooting of two or more material boxes, thereby reducing production costs; at the same time, by combining the use of the scissor fork mechanism 22, the scissor fork mechanism 22 is driven by a short-stroke driving member 21, so as to ensure that the scissor fork mechanism 22 drives a single camera 3 to meet the shooting needs of a large area; and by adding / reducing the scissor fork assembly, the requirements of different sliding strokes and the needs of fast shooting can be met, ensuring that the shooting of the camera 3 will not occupy the line beat, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0062] The slider 232 is slidably connected to the slide rail 231 , and the slider 232 is connected to the scissor fork mechanism 22 .

[0063] In this embodiment, since the slider 232 is connected to the scissor fork mechanism 22, the scissor fork mechanism 22 is driven to move by the driving member 21, thereby driving the slider 232 to move horizontally on the slide rail 231, improving the sliding performance, ensuring the smooth effect during the movement of the camera 3, and improving the working stability and safety. At the same time, the guide rail mechanism 23 is installed sideways, and the installation hole will not be blocked, which can achieve the effect of rapid installation, disassembly and replacement.

[0065] A base 241 connected to the slider 232 or the scissor fork mechanism 22, and the base 241 is provided with a first recess;

[0066] The mounting block 243 is provided with a second recess, and the second recess is arranged opposite to the first recess;

[0067] An adjusting ball center 242 is disposed between the first recess and the second recess, and the adjusting ball center 242 is fixedly connected to a rotating rod 242-1 for mounting the camera 3;

[0069] When the adjustment mechanism is in an active state, the mounting block 243 is relatively far away from the base 241, and the adjustment ball center 242 and the rotating rod 242-1 can rotate in the horizontal direction corresponding to the base 241 and the mounting block 243 to switch the shooting angle of the camera 3;

[0070] When the adjustment mechanism is in a locked state, the mounting block 243 is relatively close to the base 241 , so that the base 241 and the mounting block 243 can prevent the adjustment ball center 242 and the rotating rod 242 - 1 from moving.

[0071] In this embodiment, the camera 3 is installed by the rotating rod 242-1 fixed to the adjusting sphere 242, so as to realize the connection between the camera 3 and the adjusting sphere 242; the adjusting sphere 242 is set between the first recess of the base 241 and the second recess of the mounting block 243, and the base 241 is connected to the mounting block 243 by the fastener 244. Since the base 241 is connected to the slider 232 or the scissor fork mechanism 22, the camera 3 is connected to the slider 232 or the scissor fork mechanism 22, so that the camera 3 can move with the movement of the slider 232 or the scissor fork mechanism 22, and switch the shooting position of the camera 3.

[0072] Among them, when it is necessary to adjust the shooting angle of the camera 3, the fastener 244 is loosened so that the mounting block 243 and the base 241 can be relatively far away from each other, ensuring that the adjusting ball center 242 and the rotating rod 242-1 can move relative to the base 241 and the mounting block 243, and by rotating the rotating rod 242-1 on the adjusting ball center 242, the camera 3 at the bottom can be rotated within a certain range, thereby switching the shooting angle of the camera 3. The operation is simple and there is no need to remove the connecting parts. After confirming that it is correct, the fastener 244 can be tightened so that the mounting block 243 and the base 241 can be relatively close to each other, thereby locking the position of the mounting block 243 and the base 241, ensuring that the base 241 and the mounting block 243 can prevent the adjusting ball center 242 and the rotating rod 242-1 from moving, thereby preventing the adjusting ball center 242 from moving on the base 241. By connecting the connection block 245 for mounting the camera 3 to the rotating rod 242 - 1 , the shooting angle of the camera 3 can be flexibly manually adjusted in multiple directions and angles by adjusting the fastener 244 .
