[0025] Example

[0026] Reference Figure 1-Figure 2 , which is an embodiment of the utility model, provides an automated conveying equipment for automobile parts production, including: a conveying unit 100, an appearance inspection unit 200, a soot blowing unit 300 and an adjusting and tightening unit 400.

[0027] The conveying unit 100 includes a conveying frame 101 and a transmission chain plate 102 which is installed in the conveying frame 101. The transmission chain plate 102 and the conveying frame 101 are both inherent components of the conveying equipment. The working principle thereof is not described in detail here. A driving source for driving the transmission chain plate 102 to rotate is installed on the conveying frame 101. Transition plates 103 matching the transmission chain plate 102 are fixedly installed at both ends of the conveying frame 101, and the upper surface of the transition plate 103 is polished and smooth. The provision of the transition plate 103 effectively solves the defect that the automobile tire 104 is easily blocked when passing through the gap between the transmission chain plate 103 and the conveying frame 101. A plurality of groups of evenly distributed automobile tires 104 are placed on the transmission chain plate 102.

[0028] The appearance inspection unit 200 is used to take photos and inspect the appearance defects of the automobile tire 104 on the transmission chain plate 102;

[0029] The appearance inspection unit 200 also includes a first support arm 201 fixedly installed on one side of the conveying frame 101 and a hanging frame 202 fixedly installed on the upper inner wall of the first support arm 201. The lower end of the hanging frame 202 is fixedly connected to a ring plate 203, and the lower side wall of the ring plate 203 is fixedly provided with multiple groups of evenly distributed high-definition cameras 204. The high-definition cameras 204 can clearly capture the surface defects and details of the automobile tire 104. It is often used in the appearance inspection procedures of automobile parts and belongs to a very mature existing technology. Its working principle will not be introduced in detail here.

[0030] The sootblowing unit 300 includes a second support arm 301 fixedly installed on one side of the conveying frame 101 and an air pump 305 fixedly installed on the upper end of the second support arm 301, a hanging pipe 302 connected to the air pump 305 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the second support arm 301, the lower end of the hanging pipe 302 is fixedly connected to an annular pipe 303, and the lower end of the annular pipe 303 is fixedly connected to multiple groups of evenly distributed nozzles 304.

[0031] The adjusting and tightening unit 400 includes a plurality of annular covers 401 fixedly mounted on the transmission chain plate 102 and an adjusting rod 402 at the center of the upper side wall of the annular cover 401. The adjusting rod 402 is inserted into the annular cover 401 and fixedly connected with a first bevel gear 403. The inner wall of the annular cover 401 is provided with a plurality of groups of second bevel gears 404 evenly distributed and meshing with the first bevel gear 403. The first bevel gear 403 and the second bevel gear 404 are both provided with evenly distributed anti-skid patterns. The first bevel gear 403 and the second bevel gear 404 are both made of manganese steel. The setting of the anti-skid patterns improves the meshing stability of the first bevel gear 403 and the second bevel gear 404. The first bevel gear 403 and the second bevel gear 404 made of manganese steel have good wear resistance and good extrusion ability, which prolongs the service life of the two. Each second bevel gear 404 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the annular cover 401 through a threaded rod 405, and a threaded plate 406 threadedly connected to the threaded rod 405.

[0032] Each threaded plate 406 is fixedly connected to a symmetrical push rod 407 on one side away from the second bevel gear 404, and each pair of push rods 407 is fixedly connected to a tensioning plate 408 through the annular cover 401 outward, and the outer wall of each set of tensioning plates 408 is against the inner wall of the corresponding automobile tire 104, and the lower side wall of each tensioning plate 408 is fixedly connected to a tray 409, and the upper side wall of the tray 409 and the outer side wall of the tensioning plate 408 are padded with a grid pattern pad. The setting of the grid pattern improves the tension of the tray 409 and the tensioning plate 408 on the automobile tire 104. Effect: The automobile tires 104 that need to be inspected for appearance are placed on the tensioning plate 408 in turn, and then the adjusting rod 402 and the first bevel gear 403 are rotated in the forward direction. The second bevel gear 404 drives the threaded rod 405 to rotate, and the threaded plate 406 threadedly connected to the threaded rod 405 drives the tensioning plate 408 through the push rod to position automobile tires 104 of various specifications. When the heights of the two ends of the conveying equipment are inconsistent, the automobile tires 104 can be positioned, which effectively solves the defect that the automobile tires 104 are easy to move and slide on the conveying equipment.

[0033] During use, the automobile tire 104 to be inspected is placed on the transmission chain plate 102 in turn, and the transmission chain plate 104 and the air pump 305 are started. When the automobile tire 104 passes directly under the second support arm 301, the dust on the surface of the automobile tire 104 can be blown away by multiple nozzles 304. When the automobile tire 104 that has been blown away passes under the first support arm 201, the multiple high-definition cameras 204 installed under the annular plate 203 can perform comprehensive photography and inspection of defects on the outer surface of the automobile tire 104, effectively solving the defect that the appearance inspection effect of the automobile tire 104 by the conveying equipment is poor due to dust blocking the defects.

[0034] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
