[0028] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0029] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 , the automatic production line camera shooting angle compensation system includes a mounting bracket 1 and a manipulator 2, the mounting bracket 1 is an L-shaped bracket structure composed of a longitudinal section and a transverse section, the manipulator 2 is arranged below the transverse section of the mounting bracket 1, and a camera 3 is arranged on the transverse section of the mounting bracket 1;
[0030] The manipulator 2 is provided with a driver 4 and a clamping assembly driven to rotate by the driver 4, and the components are arranged as follows:
[0031] The driver 4 is fixedly mounted on the manipulator 2, and the driver 4 is electrically connected to the camera 3. When the camera 3 is shooting, the driver 4 can operate according to the shooting angle of the camera 3;
[0032] The clamping assembly is fixedly connected to the output end of the driver 4, and is used to fix and clamp the product, so that the clamping assembly can be adjusted according to the shooting angle of the camera 3, which helps to improve the appearance qualification rate of the product before leaving the factory;
[0033] Further implementation method is that the clamping assembly includes a mounting plate 5, a mounting port 6, a telescopic cylinder 7, a guide slider 8, a support slider 9, a connecting rod 10, a clamping block 11, a driving block 12 and a traction rod 13, and each component is arranged as follows:
[0034] The mounting plate 5 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the driver 4, and the mounting opening 6 is opened on the mounting plate 5, and the mounting opening 6 is opened at the middle end position of the mounting plate 5;
[0035] The telescopic cylinder 7 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 5, and the output end of the telescopic cylinder 7 extends into the mounting opening 6. The mounting plate 5 is provided with an active through hole connected to the mounting opening 6 and used for movably fitting the output end of the telescopic cylinder 7. The active through hole can provide a movable space for the telescopic movement of the output end of the telescopic cylinder 7.
[0036] The guide slider 8 is slidably mounted on the mounting plate 5, and the support slider 9 is slidably mounted on the mounting plate 5. The sliding mode is one of a slide groove or a slide rail, as follows:
[0037] When a slide groove is used, the slide groove is opened on the mounting plate 5, and the guide slider 8 and the support slider 9 are slidably mounted in the slide groove. By opening the groove, the overall weight of the mounting plate 5 can be reduced, which helps to reduce the weight of the load required by the manipulator 2 when operating.
[0038] When a slide rail is used, the slide rail is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 5, and the guide slider 8 and the support slider 9 are slidably mounted on the slide rail. By adding the slide rail to the mounting plate 5, the slide rail can be installed by a detachable fixing method such as bolts, so that the slide rail can be replaced in time when it is seriously worn.
[0039] The connecting rod 10 is fixedly connected to the guide slider 8 and the support slider 9. The connecting rod 10 is supported at two points by the guide slider 8 and the support slider 9, which helps to ensure the stability of the connecting rod 10 during movement. The clamping block 11 is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting rod 10 close to the installation port 6. A rubber cushion is provided at one end of the clamping block 11 close to the installation port 6. The rubber cushion can realize non-destructive clamping of the product by the clamping block 11, which helps to avoid damage to the outer surface of the product due to excessive extrusion;
[0040] The driving block 12 is fixedly connected to the output end of the telescopic cylinder 7 , and both ends of the traction rod 13 are pin-connected to the guide slider 8 and the driving block 12 , respectively, so that the driving block 12 provides installation space for the two traction rods 13 .
[0041] The functional principle of the utility model can be explained through the following operation modes:
[0042] After the camera 3 recognizes the angle to the product, the telescopic cylinder 7 is started, the telescopic cylinder 7 drives the driving block 12 to extend horizontally, the driving block 12 drives one end of the traction rod 13 to perform linear movement, the other end of the traction rod 13 pulls and drives the guide slider 8 to slide horizontally, the guide slider 8 drives the connecting rod 10 to move horizontally, the connecting rod 10 drives the supporting slider 9 to slide horizontally, and the connecting rod 10 drives the clamping block 11 to clamp and limit the product;
[0043] After the photo is taken, the pixel value is given to the robot. After the robot completes the calculation, it will feedback a qualified or unqualified signal. When the angle compensation range calculated by the robot exceeds ±5 degrees, the robot grabs the product through the above operation and moves it to the material channel. According to the shooting angle, the driver 4 is started to drive the clamping component to rotate. The robot repeats the above operation to re-grasp and take a second photo. If it is qualified, it will be adjusted within ±5 degrees. If it exceeds, it will be directly thrown into the offline material channel, or stop and report an error, and then the cycle will be started again after the operator confirms.
