[0076] Combine the following Figures 1 to 16 , the stirrup detection unit, stirrup transfer device, stirrup processing equipment, stirrup processing system and sleeper production line provided by the utility model are specifically described. It should be pointed out that the sleepers involved in the present application can be selectively sleepers required for railway construction, and the sleepers can be selectively double-block sleepers, prestressed sleepers, etc.
[0077] The present application provides a stirrup detection unit, which is used to detect whether the processed stirrups are qualified. The stirrup detection unit includes an information acquisition unit 10, an information processing module and a control unit. The information acquisition unit 10 is configured to collect information about the processed stirrups 6, and the information collected by the information acquisition unit 10 is used to determine whether the processed stirrups 6 are qualified. The information processing module is configured to collect and process the information collected by the information acquisition unit 10, and determine whether the processed stirrups 6 are qualified based on the information collected by the information acquisition unit 10. In a specific implementation, the information acquisition unit 10 is connected to the control unit signal, and the information acquisition unit 10 is controlled by the control unit, and the information processing module is connected to the control unit signal.
[0078] The present application provides a unit capable of automatically detecting the processed stirrups 6. Specifically, the stirrup detection unit includes an information acquisition unit 10, an information processing module and a control unit. The control unit can control the information acquisition unit 10 to collect information about the processed stirrups 6. The information processing module can collect and process the information collected by the information acquisition unit 10, and judge whether the processed stirrups 6 are qualified based on the collected information, so that the stirrup detection unit can realize automatic detection of the processed stirrups 6 and give the detection results. In addition, the stirrup detection unit provided by the present application can replace manual detection, not only has higher detection efficiency, but also can effectively improve the working efficiency of the device, equipment, system, etc. including the stirrup detection unit.
[0079] It should be pointed out that the information acquisition unit 10 in the present application is not specifically limited, and it can be any information acquisition unit 10 that can collect the setting information of the processed stirrup 6. In the specific implementation, it is preferred that the information acquisition unit 10 can collect at least part of the information of the height difference of the welding position, the weld length, the weld height deviation, the weld width, the open weld information and the loosening information. In the specific implementation, the information acquisition unit 10 can be selectively made into a 3D industrial camera or a 2D industrial camera. The present application enables the information acquisition unit 10 to collect information including at least one of the height difference of the welding position, the weld length, the weld height deviation, the weld width, the open weld information and the loosening information, thereby being able to perform more comprehensive information collection on the weld 64 and the welding position of the processed stirrup 6, and then more accurately and objectively judge whether the processed stirrup 6 is qualified.
[0080] In specific implementation, when the information acquisition unit 10 is a 3D industrial camera, the information acquisition unit 10 can collect at least part of the height difference of the welding position, the weld length, the weld height deviation, the weld width, the open welding information and the loosening information, and then can more comprehensively collect the information of the processed stirrup 6, which can effectively improve the detection capability of the stirrup detection unit. When the information acquisition unit 10 is a 2D industrial camera, the information acquisition unit 10 can collect at least part of the information of the weld length, the weld width, the open welding information and the loosening information, and can also more comprehensively collect the information of the processed stirrup 6, providing important guarantee for the detection of the stirrup 6.
[0081] It should be explained that the "height difference of the welding position" in this application refers to the height deviation between the connection between the weld 64 and the first welding section 61 of the stirrup 6 and the connection between the weld 64 and the second welding section 62 of the stirrup 6; by collecting this information, the degree of misalignment of the first welding section 61 and the second welding section 62 of the stirrup 6 in the height direction can be reflected. In specific implementation, the height difference of the welding position should be within the set numerical range. Preferably, the height difference of the welding position is between ±2mm. When the height difference of the detected welding position is within this range, the detected stirrup 6 is judged to be qualified for the test item, otherwise it is unqualified.
[0082] It is also necessary to explain that the "weld height deviation" in the present application refers to the deviation of the same weld 64 in the height direction. In specific implementation, it is preferred to make the weld height deviation within a set numerical range. When the detected weld height deviation is within the set numerical range, the detected stirrup 6 is judged to be qualified for the test item, otherwise it is unqualified.
[0083] In specific implementation, it is preferred that the weld length is greater than or equal to a set value, for example, the weld length is greater than or equal to 8 cm. When the length of the weld 64 under test is greater than or equal to 8 cm, the tested stirrup 6 is determined to be qualified for the test item, otherwise it is unqualified. In specific implementation, the weld length can be selectively set according to process requirements.
[0084] In addition, the weld width is set to be greater than or equal to a set value, for example, the width of the weld 64 is set to be greater than or equal to 8 mm. In specific implementation, when the detected weld width is greater than or equal to 8 mm, the detected stirrup 6 is judged to be qualified for the test item, otherwise it is unqualified. In specific implementation, the weld width can be selectively set according to the process requirements.
[0085] It should also be pointed out that the "information processing module" in the present application is not specifically limited, and it can be any processing unit that can collect and process the information collected by the information collection unit 10 and judge whether the tested stirrup 6 is qualified. In specific implementation, it can be a part of an industrial control computer; or it can be other units, devices or systems that can collect and process the information collected by the information collection unit 10 and judge whether the tested stirrup 6 is qualified.
[0086] It should also be pointed out that the "control unit" in this application is not specifically limited. It can be any device, unit or system that can realize the control function. In specific implementation, the control unit can selectively be one of a relay, a single-chip microcomputer or a programmable logic controller, or a unit or system including a relay, a single-chip microcomputer or a programmable logic controller.
[0087] The "information processing module and control unit signal connection" in this application refers to the connection mode in which the information processing module can provide a signal to the control unit. In specific implementation, it can be an electrical signal connection, an optical signal connection or a wireless communication connection. By connecting the information processing module with the control unit signal, this application can also provide the control unit with a detection result, so that the control unit can perform corresponding actions according to the set requirements on the actuator included in the device, equipment, system, etc. including the stirrup detection unit based on the detection result, thereby providing technical support for the automated production of stirrups 6.
