DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the following embodiments specifically illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0029] <Example 1>
[0030] Reference Figure 1The air intake hose detection device 100 includes a workbench 1, a controller 2, a tool 3, at least one detection component 4, a movable mounting seat 5, an integrated mounting seat 6, a laser engraving machine 7 and an alarm (not shown in the figure). The tool 3 and the detection component 4 are installed on the integrated mounting seat 6, and the integrated mounting seat 6 is installed on the movable mounting seat 5. The installation position can be adjusted according to actual needs. The controller 2, the movable mounting seat 5 and the laser engraving machine 7 are all installed on the workbench 1, and the laser engraving machine 7 is located above the tool 3.
[0031] The controller 2 includes a control panel 21, a control button 22 and a control system (not shown in the figure). The detection component 4 and the laser engraving machine 7 are connected to the control system, and the detection component 4 and the laser engraving machine 7 are controlled by the control system to work. The tooling 3 is used to place the air intake hose 200 to be detected, the detection component 4 is used to detect the functional through hole (i.e., through hole) on the air intake hose 200, and the laser engraving machine 7 is located above the air intake hose 200. When the detected air intake hose 200 is a "qualified" product, the laser engraving machine 7 engraves the air intake hose 200. The control system is also connected to an alarm. When the detected air intake hose 200 is a "failed" product, the alarm will sound an alarm to remind the user that the product is a failed product and needs to be reworked or scrapped.
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the detection assembly 4 is provided with two groups, namely the first detection assembly 4a and the second detection assembly 4b, which are respectively placed on both sides of the tooling 3. The corresponding intake hose 200 to be detected can have two through holes to be detected (the first through hole 201 and the second through hole 202). The first detection assembly 4a corresponds to the first through hole 201 and is used to detect the first through hole 201; the second detection assembly 4b corresponds to the second through hole 202 and is used to detect the second through hole 202. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The two groups of detection components 4 have basically the same structure, both of which include a detection head 41, a driving unit 42, a sliding seat 43 and a position sensor, wherein the detection head 41 includes a mounting end 411 and a detection end 412 facing the intake hose 200, the detection end 412 is arranged toward the through hole, the mounting end 411 of the detection head 41 is fastened to the driving unit 42, the driving unit 42 pushes the detection head 41 to extend so that the detection end 412 of the detection head 41 extends toward the intake hose 200 and extends into the first through hole 201 and the second through hole 202 to detect whether the first through hole 201 and the second through hole 202 are through holes.
[0033] The sliding seat 43 has a detection position and an origin position. When the sliding seat 43 is at the detection position, the detection end 412 extends into the through hole to be detected (the first through hole 201 or the second through hole 202) of the intake hose 200; when the sliding seat 43 is at the origin position, the detection end 412 is located outside the through hole to be detected (the first through hole 201 or the second through hole 202) of the intake hose 200. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the state shown, the sliding seat 43 moves between the origin position and the detection position under the drive of the driving unit 42, so that the detection end 412 can be inserted into the through hole for detection. The position sensor is installed on the sliding seat 43 or located near the sliding seat 43, and has a first position sensor and a second position sensor, which are respectively used to sense the detection position of the sliding seat 43 when the detection end 412 is inserted into the through hole of the intake hose 200 and the origin position of the sliding seat 43 when the detection end 412 is retracted. The detection principle of the detection head 41: If the detection end 412 can smoothly pass through the first through hole 201 and the second through hole 202, it means that this is a through hole and it is a qualified product. If it is blocked in the middle and cannot pass through, it means that the hole position is blocked and it is an unqualified product. In addition, the detection head 41 in this embodiment is based on the principle of reflected light, and can detect the reflected signal of a fixed distance to determine whether it is a through hole.
[0034] Specifically, the driving unit 42 has a driving body 421 and a telescopic push rod 422. The driving body 421 can be a cylinder. The head end of the telescopic push rod 422 is connected to the driving body 421, and the end is fixedly connected to the sliding seat 43. The mounting end 411 of the detection head 41 is installed on the sliding seat 43. The driving body 421 drives the telescopic push rod 422 to move, thereby driving the detection head 41 on the sliding seat 43 to extend and retract. Figure 2 As shown, in the first detection component 4a, the bottom of the driving body 421 is fixed to the integrated mounting seat 6 through a fixing seat 423, and the fixing seat 423 is provided with an inclined fixing surface on the side facing the driving body 421. The entire driving body 421, the telescopic push rod 422, and the sliding seat 43 are all arranged in an inclined manner, so that the detection head 41 is finally extended and retracted at an inclined angle. In actual situations, the fixing seats 423 with different inclination angles can be selected for installation according to the through-hole arrangement of the intake hose 200 to be detected, so as to adapt to intake hoses 200 of different specifications. Figure 3As shown, in the second detection component 4b, the driving body 421 is fixed on the integrated mounting seat 6 by means of the fixing brackets 424 provided on both sides, the fixing brackets 424 are provided with at least two mounting holes, the driving body 421 is installed on the mounting holes, and the center line connecting the two mounting holes is an oblique line, so that the driving body 421 can be in an inclined state. In addition, the driving unit of the first detection component 4a can be referred to as the first driving unit, and the driving unit of the second detection component 4b can be referred to as the second driving unit, then the first driving unit is installed through the fixing seat 423, and the second driving unit is installed through the mounting bracket 424.
[0035] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the detection head of the first detection component 4a is called the first detection head, and the detection head of the second detection component 4b is called the second detection head. The thickness of the first detection head matches the first through hole 201, and the thickness of the second detection head matches the second through hole 202, so that the detection head can be inserted into the through hole for detection. In this embodiment, the aperture of the first through hole 201 is smaller than the aperture of the second through hole 202, so correspondingly, the thickness of the first detection head is smaller than the thickness of the second detection head. When the detection head is thinner, it is easy for the detection head to bend and deviate, resulting in detection problems. In order to solve this problem, this embodiment also has a detection head support component 44 in the first detection component 4a, such as Figure 1 As shown, the detection head support component 44 is actually a frame, which is mounted on the integrated mounting base 6 and is located near the first detection head. A support hole is provided on the detection head support component 44 for the first detection head to pass through, which is used to support the first detection head to prevent it from bending due to its own thin size and affecting the detection result.
[0036] In this embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, when the air intake hose 200 is placed on the tooling 3, the position of the first through hole 201 is lower than the position of the second through hole 202. Therefore, corresponding to the first through hole 201 and the second through hole 202, the inclination angle of the first detection head when installed is smaller than the inclination angle of the second detection head when installed. The air intake hose 200 has a hollow hose body 210, and the hose body 210 is integrally formed with a first convex tube 220 and a second convex tube 230. The first convex tube 220 is provided with a first through hole 201 leading to the inner cavity of the hose body 210, and the second convex tube 230 is provided with a second through hole 202 leading to the inner cavity of the hose body 220. The tooling 3 is provided with a placement groove 31 adapted to the shape of the hose body 210, and a positioning groove 32 adapted to the second convex tube 230 is provided on one side of the placement groove 31. When the air intake hose 200 is placed on the tooling 3, the second convex tube 230 is placed in the positioning groove 32, and the second detection head is placed toward the positioning groove 32.
[0037] See also Figure 1 The movable mounting seat 5 is provided with a plurality of regularly arranged mounting holes, and the integrated mounting seat 6 is detachably mounted on the plurality of mounting holes. Since the tooling 3 and the detection component 4 are both mounted on the integrated mounting seat 6, the tooling 3 and the detection component 4 can be adjusted in their installation positions following the integrated mounting seat 6 to adapt to different detection environments.
[0038] The detection method of this embodiment has the following steps:
[0039] Step 1: first place the air intake hose 200 to be tested on the placement groove 31 of the tooling 3, and make the second protruding tube 230 of the air intake hose 200 fall into the positioning groove 32, and adjust the position so that the first protruding tube 220 is aligned with the first detection head, and the second protruding tube 230 is aligned with the second detection head.
[0040] Step 2: Press the corresponding control button 22, the first detection component 4a and the second detection component 4b start working, and send out the first detection head and the second detection head to extend into the first through hole 201 of the first convex tube 220 and the second through hole 202 of the second convex tube 230 for detection.
[0041] Step 3: The control system receives the information from the first sensor and the second sensor and makes judgments. If it is judged to be a "qualified" product, the laser engraving machine 7 directly engraves the air intake hose 200 located on the tooling 3 under the command of the control system; if it is judged to be an "unqualified" product, the alarm sounds an alarm to alert the staff.
[0042] <Example 2>
[0043] In this embodiment, on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, a detection head supporting component 44 is also provided on the second detection component 4b, which can support and prevent the second detection head from bending.
[0044] Functions and Effects of the Embodiments
[0045] According to the air intake hose detection device of the above embodiment, since the tooling 3 and the detection component 4 are arranged on the workbench 1, and the detection component 4 has a detection head 41 and a driving unit 42, when the air intake hose 200 is detected, it is only necessary to place the air intake hose 200 to be detected on the tooling 3, and then start the controller to control the detection head 41 of the detection component 4 to extend into the corresponding detection hole on the air intake hose 200, so as to determine whether the detection target meets the requirements. The use of mechanical inspection is not only efficient but also highly accurate.
[0046] The detection component 4 has a sliding seat 43, the driving unit 42 has a telescopic push rod 422, and the detection head 41 is installed on the sliding seat 43. The detection head 41 is driven to move by the sliding seat 43 and the telescopic push rod 422, making its movement more stable and enhancing the accuracy of detection.
[0047] The detection component 4 also has a first position sensor and a second position sensor, which are used to detect the detection position and the origin position of the sliding seat 43 respectively, so as to facilitate the control system to judge whether the detection target meets the requirements.
[0048] The detection component 4 also has a detection head support component 44, which is provided with a support hole for supporting the detection head. Since the detection head 41 is slender as a whole, the setting of the support component 44 can provide support for the detection head to prevent the detection head 41 from bending or deflecting due to its own thinness, which affects the detection process.
[0049] A group of detection components 4 is provided corresponding to each functional through hole on the air intake hose 200, so that all through holes can be detected at the same time, thereby improving the detection efficiency.
[0050] An integrated mounting seat 6 is movably arranged on the movable mounting seat 5, and the tooling 3 and the detection component 4 are both arranged on the integrated mounting seat 6. Therefore, the tooling 3 and the detection component 4 can be movably arranged to adapt to intake hoses of different sizes and specifications, and the scope of application is wider.
[0051] The laser engraving machine 7 is used to engrave the qualified air intake hose after the inspection is completed, and the unqualified air intake hose will be alarmed by the alarm to remind the staff that the product is unqualified and needs to be reworked or scrapped. In addition, the laser engraving machine 7 is installed above the tooling, so that the air intake hose 200 can be directly engraved after the inspection is completed on the tooling, without the need for transfer, and the efficiency is high.
[0052] The above implementation modes are preferred examples of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention.
