[0042] The core of the utility model is to provide an optical detection device to solve the problem that verticality detection is greatly affected by human factors.
[0043] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0044] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, the utility model provides an optical detection device, including a verticality detection component 100 arranged at a detection station 400, the verticality detection component 100 includes a standard block 110 and two relatively arranged measuring modules 120, wherein the standard block 110 is configured to be arranged on at least one of the left and right sides of the workpiece 300 to be detected, and the side of the standard block 110 opposite to the workpiece 300 to be detected is configured as a standard vertical surface 111; the two relatively arranged measuring modules 120 are configured to be arranged on the upper and lower sides of the workpiece 300 to be detected, respectively, so as to respectively measure the distance between the preset points of the upper and lower edges of the workpiece 300 to be detected and the standard vertical surface 111 of the same standard block 110.
[0045] Among them, refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 The above-mentioned measuring module 120 may specifically include a ranging camera 121 and a lighting unit 122. The ranging camera 121 may specifically include a camera host 1211 and a camera lens 1212 arranged on the camera host 1211. The camera lens 1212 is arranged opposite to the corresponding side of the workpiece 300 to collect image information of the corresponding side of the workpiece 300. For example, the measuring module 120 located above the workpiece 300 has a camera host 1211 whose camera lens 1212 is arranged opposite to the top surface of the workpiece 300, thereby collecting the top surface image information of the workpiece 300 with a better field of view; similarly, the measuring module 120 located below the workpiece 300 has a camera host 1211 whose camera lens 1212 is arranged opposite to the bottom surface of the workpiece 300, thereby collecting the bottom surface image information of the workpiece 300 with a better field of view. The camera host 1211 of the measuring module 120 is mainly used to obtain the distance between the corresponding edge and the standard vertical plane 111 of the same standard block 110 according to the image information of the corresponding side of the workpiece 300 to be inspected. For example, the camera host 1211 of the measuring module 120 located on the upper side can obtain the aforementioned distances A1 and A2, and the camera host 1211 of the measuring module 120 located on the lower side can obtain the aforementioned distances B1 and B2. It should be noted here that the use of image distance measurement is a relatively mature existing technology, and its specific working principle is not described in more detail. In addition, the lighting unit 122 is mainly used to shine light on the corresponding side of the workpiece 300 to be inspected, so that the camera lens 1212 can collect the reflected light on the corresponding side of the workpiece 300 to be inspected, so as to make the imaging clearer. Specifically, the lighting unit 122 of the measuring module 120 located on the upper side is mainly used to shine light on the top surface of the workpiece 300 to be inspected, and the lighting unit 122 of the measuring module 120 located on the lower side is mainly used to shine light on the bottom surface of the workpiece 300 to be inspected.
[0046] The optical detection device, in actual application, refers to Figure 3Since the two oppositely arranged measuring modules 120 of the verticality detection assembly 100 are configured to be arranged at the upper and lower sides of the workpiece 300 to be detected, respectively, the distance A1 between a preset point on the left upper edge of the workpiece 300 to be detected (for example, the midpoint of the left upper edge) and the standard vertical surface 111 of the standard block 110 and the distance A2 between a preset point on the right upper edge (for example, the midpoint of the right upper edge) and the standard vertical surface 111 of the same standard block 110 can be measured by the measuring module 120 arranged above the workpiece 300 to be detected, and the distance A2 between a preset point on the right upper edge and the standard vertical surface 111 of the same standard block 110 can be measured by the measuring module 120 arranged below the workpiece 300 to be detected. The distance B1 between the preset point on the left lower edge of the workpiece 300 (such as the midpoint of the right lower edge) and the standard vertical plane 111 of the same standard block 110, and the distance B2 between the preset point on the right lower edge (such as the midpoint of the right lower edge) and the standard vertical plane 111 of the same standard block 110, then the difference between A1 and B1 represents the verticality of the left side surface of the inspected workpiece 300, and the difference between A2 and B2 represents the verticality of the right side surface of the inspected workpiece 300. Compared with the traditional manual detection method, the use of the above-mentioned optical detection device greatly reduces the influence of human factors, and the verticality detection is more convenient, intelligent and accurate.
[0047] It should be noted that the preset points of the left and right edges corresponding to the upper and lower edges are preferably taken at the same position. For example, the preset points of the upper and lower edges are taken in the form of midpoints on the corresponding edges. Of course, it can be understood that the above-mentioned method of setting the preset points is only an example of the embodiment of the utility model. In actual application, other points can also be selected as preset points. It should also be noted that the measuring module 12 located on the upper side of the workpiece 300 to be inspected and the measuring module 12 located on the lower side of the workpiece 300 to be inspected are preferably designed to be symmetrically arranged about the workpiece 300 to be inspected.
[0048] In addition, the verticality detection component 100 may also be equipped with a visual system, which is used to calculate the verticality C1 and C2 of the left and right sides of the detected workpiece according to the spacing information collected by the measurement module 120, and the calculation method is: C1 is the difference between A1 and B1, and C2 is the difference between A2 and B2. In addition, the verticality detection component 100 may also be equipped with a display module, through which the verticality C1 and C2 calculated by the visual system can be displayed to the user.
[0049] In some other specific embodiments, referring to Figure 1-Figure 3, the lighting unit 122 can be specifically configured as a strip light source 1221 arranged on both sides of the ranging camera 121, and the strip light source 1221 is tilted and faces the workpiece 300 to be inspected, so that the light emitted by the strip light source 1221 can be reflected into the camera lens 1212 through the workpiece 300 to be inspected. By designing the strip light source 1221 arranged on both sides of the ranging camera 121, the lighting unit 122 can save more space and better avoid blocking the field of view of the camera lens 1212 of the ranging camera 121 while meeting the lighting requirements; in addition, the lighting unit 122 can also be prevented from interfering with the laser rangefinder of the thickness detection assembly 200 mentioned below. Of course, it can be understood that the above-mentioned method of configuring the lighting unit 122 as the strip light source 1221 arranged on both sides is only an example of the embodiment of the utility model. In actual application, it can also be designed as other light source structures, such as the structure of a ring light source, etc., which is not further limited here.
[0050] In some specific implementation schemes, the number of the above-mentioned standard blocks 110 can be designed to be one, which is arranged on the left or right side of the workpiece 300 to be inspected; the number of standard blocks 110 can also be designed to be two, and they are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the workpiece 300 to be inspected. The advantage of designing two standard blocks is that the spacing measurement can be performed using the standard blocks 110 on different sides, and then the corresponding measurement spacing results can be averaged to reduce the measurement error; or, when one of the standard blocks 110 is deformed or misplaced, resulting in inaccurate measurement, the other standard block 110 can be used for measurement.
[0051] It should be noted that the above-mentioned workpiece 300 to be inspected may specifically be a metal rod with a rectangular cross-section, or may be other workpieces having a verticality that needs to be measured, and no further specific limitation is made herein.
[0052] In some other specific embodiments, referring to Figure 4As shown, the above-mentioned optical detection device can also include a thickness detection component 200 arranged at the detection station 400, and the thickness detection component 200 can specifically include two relatively arranged laser rangefinders 210, and the two relatively arranged laser rangefinders 210 are constructed to be arranged on the left and right sides of the workpiece 300 to be detected, respectively. By using the laser rangefinder 210 on the left to direct the laser beam to the left side of the detected workpiece 300, the distance H1 from the laser rangefinder 210 on the left to the left side of the detected workpiece 300 can be measured, and the distance from the laser rangefinder 210 on the left to the left side of the detected workpiece 300 has a theoretical setting value H2. Similarly, by using the laser rangefinder 210 on the right to direct the laser beam to the right side of the detected workpiece 300, the distance H3 from the laser rangefinder 210 on the right to the right side of the detected workpiece 300 can be measured, and the distance from the laser rangefinder 210 on the right to the right side of the detected workpiece 300 has a theoretical setting value H4. The theoretical value of the thickness of the detected workpiece 300 is H0, and the thickness measurement value H of the detected workpiece 300 can be calculated as follows: H=(H1-H2)+H0+(H3-H4). The thickness dimension of the inspected workpiece 300 from the left side to the right side can be accurately measured in the above manner, and due to the use of a laser rangefinder, the measurement accuracy is higher and more accurate. Of course, it can be understood that the method of using a laser rangefinder 210 for distance measurement is only an example of an embodiment of the utility model. In actual application, other structures that can achieve distance measurement can also be used, and no more specific limitations are made here. It should be noted that the above-mentioned laser rangefinder 210 is preferably arranged in a symmetrical manner on the left and right sides of the inspected workpiece 300, and is preferably designed to be arranged directly opposite to the corresponding side of the inspected workpiece 300.
[0053] In some more specific embodiments, reference Figure 5-Figure 8 As shown, the above-mentioned detection station 400 may specifically include a first detection station 410 and a second detection station 420, the verticality detection component 100 is arranged at the first detection station 410, and the thickness detection component 200 is arranged at the second detection station 420. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first inspection station 410 and the second inspection station 420 are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the workpiece 300 to be inspected. By designing the above structure, the arrangement requirements of the verticality inspection component 100 and the thickness inspection component 200 are lower, and the mutual interference or interference between the two can be avoided. Of course, it can also be designed as Figure 7 and Figure 8 In the structural form, the first detection station 410 and the second detection station 420 are constructed as the same detection station. By designing into this structural form, the overall volume of the optical detection device is smaller and the integration is higher.
[0054] In some more specific embodiments, reference Figure 5-Figure 8 The above-mentioned optical inspection device may also include a conveying mechanism 500 for carrying and horizontally conveying the inspected workpiece 300, the conveying mechanism 500 includes an import mechanism 510 and an export mechanism 520, wherein the import mechanism 510 is arranged upstream of the inspection station 400, and is used to horizontally convey the inspected workpiece 300 to the inspection station 400; the export mechanism 520 is arranged downstream of the inspection station 400, and is used to horizontally convey the inspected workpiece 300 to the downstream equipment; in addition, the import mechanism 510 and the export mechanism 520 may both include two horizontal roller groups and two deviation correction roller groups, the two horizontal roller groups are arranged to clamp the inspected workpiece 300 up and down, so as to clamp and horizontally convey the inspected workpiece 300; the two deviation correction roller groups are arranged to clamp the inspected workpiece 300 left and right, so as to correct the conveying direction of the inspected workpiece 300. By designing the above-mentioned conveying mechanism 500, the inspected workpiece 300 can be inspected in an assembly line manner, and the inspected workpiece 300 can be transported forward by the conveying structure 500 to inspect different positions in the length direction of the inspected workpiece 300 in sequence, so that the inspection is more comprehensive.
[0055] It should be noted here that, refer to Figure 1-Figure 8 The above-mentioned upper side, lower side, left side and right side are all defined based on the workpiece 300 to be inspected.
[0056] In addition, it should be noted that the various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referenced to each other.
