[0032] In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may mean that the first and second features are in direct contact, or the first and second features are in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Moreover, a first feature being "above", "above" or "above" a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below", "below" or "below" a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, a device for inspecting damage to a mask plate 6 is used to inspect whether there is a gap in the mask plate 6, including: an inspection shell 4, used to place the inspected mask plate 6; a conveying device 7, used to transport the luminescent powder dropped from the mask plate 6; a luminescent powder recovery box 3, used to recover the luminescent powder; Figure 5 , 6 As shown, the cleaning device 8 consists of a handle 81 and a mounting wheel 82, and the mounting wheel 82 is provided with mounting grooves 823 evenly distributed circumferentially; a plurality of brushes 83 are evenly installed in each mounting groove 823, and the height of the brush 83 is greater than the depth of the mounting groove 823.

[0034] The utility model sprinkles micron-level luminescent powder on the mask plate so that the places with gaps on the mask plate are adhered with the luminescent powder, and then the surface luminescent powder is cleaned by a cleaning device 8. After that, the places where luminescence exists and gaps can be checked by naked eyes through light, thereby realizing the inspection of the mask plate 6; the cleaned luminescent powder will fall onto the conveying device 7 and be conveyed by the conveying device 7 to the luminescent powder recovery box 3 outside the inspection shell 4 for recycling and reuse.

[0035] In the present invention, the height of the brush 83 is greater than the depth of the mounting groove 823. Such a design can ensure that the cleaning device 8 can clean the luminescent powder on the surface of the mask plate 6 when cleaning the luminescent powder on the mask plate 6, but the luminescent powder in the gaps of the mask plate 6 will not be cleaned.

[0036] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the conveying device 7 includes a conveyor belt 71, a conveyor roller 72, and a rotating shaft 73, wherein two rotating shafts 73 are rotatably installed in the inspection shell 4 and are located at the lower side; a conveyor roller 72 is fixedly installed on each of the two rotating shafts 73; and the two conveyor rollers 72 are connected by a conveyor belt 71.

[0037] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the motor 1 is installed through the motor 1 bracket, and the output shaft of the motor 1 is fixedly connected to one of the two rotating shafts 73. When the motor 1 is controlled to work, the motor 1 will drive the rotating shaft 73 fixedly connected to its output shaft to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating shaft 73 drives the conveyor belt 71 to rotate, and the luminescent powder dropped on the conveyor belt 71 is transported out and dropped on the inclined surface at the lower end of the inspection shell 4.

[0038] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 , 2 As shown in FIG. 3 , the lower side of one end of the inspection shell 4 has a luminescent powder outlet 42 , the luminescent powder recovery box 3 is located at the lower side of the luminescent powder outlet 42 and the lower end of the luminescent powder outlet 42 is located in the luminescent powder recovery box 3 .

[0039] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the lower side of the other end of the test shell 4 has an air inlet 41; the air inlet 41 is externally connected to an air pump with controllable wind speed. The air pump blows gas into the test shell 4, and the gas blown into the test shell 4 will blow the luminescent powder that falls on the bottom of the test shell 4 into the luminescent powder outlet 42, and finally falls into the luminescent powder recovery box 3 for recycling and reuse.

[0040] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, a back support 43 for supporting the back of the mask plate 6 is fixedly installed obliquely in the inspection shell 4, and the back support 43 is located at an upper position in the inspection shell 4 and close to the front wall of the inspection shell 4; a bottom support 44 for supporting the bottom of the mask plate 6 is fixedly installed on the oblique lower side of the back support 43. The back support 43 and the bottom support 44 provide support and placement for the inspection of the mask plate 6, ensuring that the mask plate 6 is placed obliquely in the inspection shell 4, which is convenient for sprinkling and cleaning the luminescent powder.

[0041] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the bottom support 44 is composed of an L-shaped support base 441 and a support block 442. The support base 441 is fixedly installed in the test shell 4 obliquely and the vertical plate of the support base 441 is close to the rear wall of the test shell 4; a square notch is opened on the horizontal plate of the bottom support 44; and a plurality of support blocks 442 are evenly fixedly installed at the front end of the horizontal plate of the bottom support 44. The function of the support base 441 is to provide a limiting support for the bottom of the mask plate 6, and the function of the support block 442 is to provide a support for the front side of the bottom of the mask plate 6; in addition, the design of the support block 442 and the square notch is to ensure that the luminescent powder can fall smoothly onto the conveyor belt 71.

[0042] In one embodiment, the height of the brush 83 is 0.1 mm greater than the depth of the mounting groove 823. Through experiments, it is found that the 0.1 mm gap can ensure that the cleaning device 8 can better clean the luminescent powder on the surface of the mask plate 6 when cleaning the luminescent powder on the mask plate 6, while the luminescent powder in the gaps of the mask plate 6 will not be cleaned.

[0043] In one embodiment, the diameter of the brush 83 is 0.2 times the width of the mounting groove 823. This ensures that the brush 83 has enough swing space to ensure the cleaning effect of the brush 83.

[0044] The bottom of the test shell 4 is supported by test shell legs 5 .

[0045] The technical features of the above embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0046] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, and these all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be subject to the attached claims.
