[0026] The present invention provides a color-coated plate inspection system for a color-coated plate production line, comprising: a first industrial camera group 10, a second industrial camera group 20, a server 30 and an industrial computer 40; wherein:

[0027] The first industrial camera group 10 and the second industrial camera group 20 are connected to the server 30 and the industrial computer 40 through the switch 50, and the industrial computer 40 is connected to the server 30 through the switch 50. Exemplarily, the first industrial camera group 10 communicates with the server 30 through the switch 50, so that the surface image of the color-coated plate taken can be sent to the server for analysis and processing by the server; the first industrial camera 10 communicates with the industrial computer 40 through the switch 50, so that the surface image of the color-coated plate taken can be directly sent to the industrial computer 40 for viewing by the staff.

[0028] The first industrial camera group 10 and the second industrial camera group 20 are distributed on both sides of the color-coated plate to capture the color-coated plate surface image of the color-coated plate. For example, the color-coated plate in the present application can be a color-coated steel plate, and the first industrial camera group 10 and the second industrial camera group 20 are arranged on both sides of the color-coated plate, so that the surface quality of both sides of the color-coated plate can be detected.

[0029] The server 30 is used to receive the surface image of the color-coated plate through the switch 50, and analyze and process it to obtain the color-coated plate detection result. Exemplarily, the server 30 is configured to have an image analysis and processing function, for example, the received surface image of the color-coated plate is analyzed by a neural network model to determine whether there are defects in the surface image of the color-coated plate, or other image analysis and processing technologies in the relevant technical field are used, and this application does not limit this. It should be noted that the invention point of this application is only to provide a system that can be used to realize automatic detection of color-coated plates. Those skilled in the art can realize automatic detection of color-coated plates based on the system of this application combined with the existing technology and instructions in this field.

[0030] The industrial computer 40 is used to receive the color-coated plate detection result through the switch 50. For example, the industrial computer 40 can be a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a tablet computer or other dedicated control computer, which is not limited in this application.

[0031] An embodiment of the utility model provides a system that can be used to realize automatic detection of color-coated plates, wherein surface images of both sides of the color-coated plates are collected by a first industrial camera group 10 and a second industrial camera group 20, and the switch 50 communicates with the server 30, so that the collected surface images of both sides of the color-coated plates can be automatically sent to the server, so that the server can analyze and process the collected surface images of the color-coated plates to obtain detection results, and further the detection results can be sent to the industrial computer 40 for display through the switch 50, so as to facilitate the staff to view.

[0032] Exemplarily, the first industrial camera group 10 in the present application may include multiple CCD cameras, and the second industrial camera group 20 may include multiple CCD cameras. The CCD cameras in each industrial camera group are configured to shoot the color-coated plate from different angles so as to obtain surface images of the color-coated plate at different angles.

[0033] like Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments of the color-coated plate detection system of the present application, an image processor 11 (or 21) corresponding to the first industrial camera group 10 and the second industrial camera group 20 is also included. The image processor 11 (or 21) is communicatively connected with the corresponding industrial camera group, and the image processor 11 (or 21) is also communicatively connected with the server 30 through the switch 50. Exemplarily, the image processor 11 (or 21) can adopt an edge-end embedded vision processor, model Gbox-4CL-MN-00, for processing and sending the collected data of the linear array camera.

[0034] Based on the image processor 11 (or 21) in the embodiment of the present application, the control of the first industrial camera group 10 and the second industrial camera group 20 can be realized. In addition, the captured surface image of the color-coated plate can also be processed, for example, the surface image of the color-coated plate can be encoded.

[0035] In some embodiments, the color coating task of the color coated plate is completed on the color coated plate production line, and the color coated plate needs to be dried and rolled after the color coating is completed. The color coated plate production line includes a drying device and a rolling device, and the first industrial camera group 10 and the second industrial camera group 20 are arranged between the drying device and the rolling device. In this embodiment, the first industrial camera group 10 and the second industrial camera group 20 are arranged between the drying device and the rolling device to dry the color coated plate after the production line completes the color coating of the color coated plate, and the color coated plate is inspected after drying and before rolling, so as to avoid the false detection of color coated plate defects due to the unformed color coated plate before drying.

[0036] In some embodiments of the color-coated plate inspection system of the present application, a light source device 100 is also included, which is used to provide a shooting light source for the first industrial camera group 10 and / or the second industrial camera group 20.

[0037] In some embodiments of the color-coated plate inspection system of the present application, the light source device 100 includes a light source 110 and a light source controller 120, and the light source controller 120 is in communication connection with the programmable logic controller 60. In this embodiment, by setting the light source controller 120, the light source 110 can be controlled, and the light source 110 can be adjusted to a state suitable for the first industrial camera group 10 and the second industrial camera group 20 as needed.

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the color-coated plate detection system of the present application, an encoder 70 and a programmable logic controller 60 are further included. The encoder 70 is connected to the programmable logic controller 60 for communication. The encoder 70 is used to detect the running speed of the color-coated plate. For example,

[0039] Exemplarily, the encoder 70 uses a contact encoder, for example, a pulse encoder, which obtains the running speed pulse of the color-coated plate through the contact encoder and then synchronously controls the first industrial camera group 10, the second industrial camera group 20 and the inkjet device 90.

[0040] In some embodiments of the color-coated plate detection system of the present application, a grating sensor 80 is further included, and the grating sensor 80 is connected to the programmable logic controller 60 for communication, and the grating sensor 80 is used to detect the color-coated plate. For example, the grating sensor 80 in the color-coated plate detection system adopts the N3210L1NC-1Z model grating sensor, and the ESN series safety grating adopts an independent dual-circuit output design, with output circuit self-test function and output overcurrent protection function; adopts a unique optical lens design scheme, and the grating shooting distance can reach more than 30 meters; the grating working voltage is industrial voltage DC10V~30V wide voltage power supply, and the output is a transistor output mode, which can be directly connected to the PLC contact for use; the housing adopts a double-sided slide installation design, which is convenient for the grating to be installed in a variety of ways.

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the color-coated board detection system of the present application, a coding device 90 is also included, and the coding device 90 is connected to the programmable logic controller 60 (PLC), and the coding device 90 is used to spray codes on the surface of the color-coated board. For example, the PLC model is Delta AS228T, which can meet basic control performance and has a high cost performance.

[0042] In the embodiment of the present application, the programmable logic controller 60 (PLC) obtains the real-time production speed of the color-coated production line by receiving the pulse of the encoder 70, and simultaneously sends the pulse of the encoder 70 to the image processor 11 (21) and the inkjet printer 90 through the IO, so as to complete the mapping of the color-coated plate image and the inkjet printer identification coordinates on the back of the color-coated plate. For example, the encoder 70 model is E38S6-800-3-T-24. The system previously used the encoder model E6B2-CWZ6C. During the implementation process, there were problems such as poor anti-interference ability and pulse loss during operation. Therefore, E38S6-800-3-T-24 was adopted; the inkjet printer used the Linx8800 series inkjet printer. Other series of inkjet printers were used before, but in the actual application process, a series of problems such as inkjet transfer occurred, causing secondary damage to the surface of the steel plate. Finally, the Linx8800 series inkjet printer was adopted.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of the color-coated plate inspection system of the present application, a third industrial camera group is also included, the first industrial camera group 10 is arranged on the first side of the color-coated plate (for example, the back of the color-coated plate), and the second industrial camera group 20 and the third industrial camera group are arranged on the second side of the color-coated plate (for example, the front of the color-coated plate).

[0044] In some embodiments of the color-coated plate inspection system of the present application, the first industrial camera group 10, the second industrial camera group 20 and the third industrial camera group each include at least two industrial cameras, and the industrial cameras are CCD cameras.

[0045] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the color-coated plate detection system of the present application, three groups of cameras are used to obtain multi-angle, multi-directional, and multi-region surface images of the color-coated plate by setting different physical positions, wherein two groups of cameras are deployed on the front of the steel plate (i.e., the color-coated plate) to obtain the front image of the color-coated plate from different angles, and one group of cameras is deployed on the back of the camera to obtain the back image of the color-coated plate; the present application adopts a high-speed inkjet printer to complete the inkjet printer positioning function on the back of the color-coated plate; a contact encoder is used to obtain the running speed pulse of the color-coated plate and then synchronize the industrial camera and the inkjet printer; a grating sensor 80 is used to detect the roll signal of the color-coated plate.

[0046] In addition, based on the above system of the present application, a complete production line detection system including the upper computer software system part and the lower computer electrical control part can also be realized. Based on the above system of the present application, the upper and lower computers of the system can also work together to complete the real-time generation task of the quality map. The main content of the lower computer electrical control part is to control the encoder to send synchronization pulses to the industrial camera and inkjet equipment. At the same time, the PLC also controls the actions of actuators such as grating sensors and light sources, thereby completing a complete set of defect collection actions suitable for color coating production lines; the upper computer software system is mainly responsible for real-time processing of steel plate image data collected by the production line, detecting defects, calculating the physical coordinates of defects and storing related data. The upper computer software system also has the functions of querying and analyzing the historical steel coil quality map and the subsequent physical object association. At the same time, the upper computer can also remotely control the actions of the lower computer.

[0047] It should be noted that the software or algorithm design part of the above system is not the content required to be protected by this application. Those skilled in the art can implement it in combination with relevant technologies in the field, and this application does not limit this.

[0048] Based on the above system of the present application, the following method steps can be implemented:

[0049] Step 1: The grating sensor detects the punching on the color-coated plate, obtains the punching signal, and sends the punching signal to the PLC;

[0050] Step 2: After the PLC receives the punching signal of the color-coated plate, it starts to record the number of encoder pulses and divides the obtained encoder high-speed pulse signal into 3 channels, which are sent to the industrial camera image processor, inkjet printer and host computer respectively. The PLC sends the origin pulse count, new roll signal and new roll count information to the host computer software system;

[0051] Exemplarily, after the PLC detects the punching signal, it sends a control signal to the encoder, and the encoder starts to accumulate the encoder's pulse count (the value is placed in the PLC's origin pulse count register). When the origin pulse count reaches 8000 (1m of steel plate), the PLC resets the origin pulse count register and re-accumulates it. At the same time, the PLC sends the encoder's pulse to the industrial camera image processor and the inkjet printer at the same time. At this time, the image processor receives the pulse signal to control the industrial camera to start acquiring images (the current image frame number is 1), and the inkjet printer receives the pulse signal to start inkjet printing (the current inkjet printer coordinate is 0). The PLC sends the pulse origin count (0 at this time), the new roll signal (punching signal flag = 1), and the new roll count (1 at this time) to the host computer. After receiving the corresponding information, the host computer starts to parse it, where the new roll signal is a flag for starting the detection algorithm, the origin pulse count is used to separate the defects of different steel coils, and the new roll count is used to record which roll the current steel coil is in the production process.

[0052] Step 3: The image processor of the industrial camera receives the external pulse signal and starts to collect the surface image of the steel plate (color-coated plate). At the same time, the inkjet printer also starts the synchronous inkjet printing action after receiving the external pulse signal.

[0053] Step 4: The image captured by the industrial camera is encoded by the image processor and sent to the application server. After receiving the steel plate image, the application server decodes it and performs algorithm processing on the steel plate defects in the image. The defect detection results are sent to the host computer in real time via the HTTP protocol for display, processing and storage.

[0054] Step 5: Complete the association configuration of the color-coated steel plate with the quality map in the database, and finally complete the task of generating the surface quality map of the color-coated plate, so as to achieve the goal of matching the actual color-coated plate with the data one by one.

[0055] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit it. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
