[0028] The following is a further description of the present invention in conjunction with the attached Figures 1 to 4 Drawings.

[0029] Embodiment 1

[0030] In view of the technical problems existing in the background art, the present invention provides an on-line detection device for brick curve connection.

[0031] In the specific technical solution, referring to Figures 1 to 3 , the on-line detection device for brick curve connection includes a frame 1. A curve block receiving and conveying assembly 2 for transporting the curve block 8 is provided on the frame 1. A curve block turning assembly 3 for turning the curve block 8 is provided beside the rear end of the curve block receiving and conveying assembly 2. A curve block pushing assembly 4 is provided on the other side of the curve block receiving and conveying assembly 2 relative to the curve block turning assembly. The curve block pushing assembly 4 can push the curve block 8 on the curve block receiving and conveying assembly 2 onto the curve block turning assembly 3. A curve block output assembly 5 for transporting the turned curve block 8 is provided beside the curve block turning assembly 3. In this embodiment, the curve block receiving and conveying assembly 2 adopts a chain plate conveyor, and the curve block output assembly 5 adopts a belt conveyor.

[0032] To understand the technical problem of damage caused by the mutual collision of koji blocks due to uneven koji block thickness, it is necessary to first understand the working principle: The koji blocks prepared by the koji-making machine are transported to the koji-receiving conveying component 2. At this time, the koji blocks are in a flat state. The koji-receiving conveying component 2 transports the koji blocks to the koji-pushing station, that is, beside the koji-pushing component 4. The koji-pushing component 4 pushes the koji blocks onto the koji-turning component 4. The koji-turning component 4 turns the koji blocks on it onto the koji-output component 5. The koji block 8 changes from a flat state to a vertical state, which is convenient for the robot to grip the koji. It should be noted that there are two rows of koji blocks on the koji-output component 5 in this embodiment, and there are also two koji-pushing components. That is to say, the koji blocks on the koji-receiving conveying component 2 are pushed in groups of two. The koji-output component 5 does not run continuously. Instead, when a koji block 8 is transported onto it, the koji-output component 5 runs a length equal to the thickness of one koji block and then stops, waiting for the next koji block to arrive and then running a length equal to the thickness of one koji block, and so on in a cycle.

[0033] Analysis of the reasons for koji block collision: For example, the thickness of the standard koji block 8 is 75mm, plus the gap of 5mm between the koji blocks. Therefore, when a koji block 8 reaches the koji-output component 5, the step value of the koji-output component 5 is 80mm. The so-called step value is the distance that the koji-output component 5 runs. However, due to the inconsistent thickness of the koji blocks prepared by the koji-making machine, when the thickness of the koji block prepared by the koji-making machine exceeds the standard thickness, for example, when the thickness of the koji block 8 is 85mm, at this time, the step value of the koji-output component 5 is still 80mm. Obviously, at this time, the space reserved for the koji block on the koji-output component 5 is less than the thickness of the koji block 8. At this time, when the 85mm koji block reaches the koji-output component 5, due to insufficient space, the koji block will collide with the koji block that already exists on the koji-output component 5, causing mutual collision between the koji blocks 8, resulting in damage to the surface of the koji blocks and affecting the quality of the koji blocks.

[0034] Therefore, the present embodiment makes the following further improvements to the above technical problems: Refer to Figures 1 to 4 , in this embodiment, a bracket 201 is provided at the front end of the koji-receiving conveying component 2. A first sensor 202 is provided on the bracket 201. The first sensor 202 is arranged directly above the koji-receiving conveying component 2. The first sensor 202 measures the thickness of the koji blocks on the koji-receiving conveying component 2 and transmits the thickness data of the koji blocks to the PLC. After the PLC collects the thickness data of the koji blocks, it controls the step value of the koji-output component 5 and the gripping position of the robot. The PLC controls the step value of the koji-output component 5 by controlling the rotation of the stepping motor of the koji-output component 5.

[0035] Since the curved blocks are pushed in groups of two, the measured curved blocks are also in groups of two. For example, when the thicknesses of the two curved blocks in a group are 75 mm and 85 mm respectively, the PLC will select the thicker curved block as the reference, that is, 85 mm as the reference, and add the 5 mm gap that should be reserved between the curved blocks. Therefore, the PLC will issue a command to the stepping motor with a stepping value of 90 mm, and thus the curved block output component 5 will run a distance of 90 mm to make room for the curved blocks.

[0036] As can be seen from the above structure and principle, the first sensor 202 of this embodiment can measure the thickness of the curved blocks on the curved block conveying component 2 in real time and online, and control the stepping value of the curved block output component 5 based on the thickness of the thickest curved block in a group, ensuring a very small gap between the curved blocks while avoiding damage to the overly thick curved blocks.

[0037] For the convenience of maintaining or overhauling the first sensor 202, in this embodiment, the first sensor 202 and the bracket 201 are connected by bolts. The first sensor 202 in this embodiment adopts a laser sensor, which can achieve non-contact long-distance measurement, and has the advantages of fast speed, high precision, large measurement range, strong resistance to light and electrical interference, etc.

[0038] To limit the curved blocks on the curved block conveying component 2, in this embodiment, guardrails 7 are provided on both sides in the length direction of the curved block conveying component 2.

[0039] Embodiment 2

[0040] To further improve the intelligence level of the equipment, referring to Figures 1 to 4 , on the basis of Embodiment 1, this embodiment also has a incoming material detection component 6 arranged beside the curved block pushing component 4, and the incoming material detection component 6 is used to detect whether there are curved blocks at the curved block pushing station.

[0041] Specifically, the incoming material detection component 6 includes a detection bracket 601, and a second sensor 602 is arranged on the detection bracket 601. The second sensor 602 is a photoelectric sensor, and the second sensor 602 is located directly above the curved block conveying component 2. When the second sensor 602 detects a curved block signal, it feeds the signal back to the PLC, and the PLC controls the operation of the curved block pushing component 4.

[0042] The specific implementation manners described above further elaborate on the purpose, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of the present invention. It should be understood that the above is only the specific implementation manner of the present invention and is not used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
