Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of detection technology. Specifically, it relates to a detection device for bright mark defects on the surface of a smooth spherical object. Background Art

[0002] With the development of industrial technology, the shapes of various products and parts are becoming increasingly diverse, and more and more products and parts are starting to use spherical structures; for such spherical products, especially some spherical products with high requirements for surface flatness, a smooth outer surface without bumps and friction is a basic requirement to be ensured during production. For this reason, these products need to be subjected to surface defect detection before leaving the factory, that is, irradiating the product surface from various angles. If there are friction or bump damages on the product surface, due to a certain height difference between the damaged area and the smooth surface, light will undergo diffuse reflection at the damaged area, so visually, bright marks will appear at the defective area of the product. However, for some overly fine bright marks, it is very difficult for the human eye to directly observe them under natural light. It is necessary to illuminate from various angles separately for observation, which is extremely time-consuming and laborious, greatly increasing the workload of the inspectors and the detection results are not accurate enough. For this reason, more and more enterprises have begun to apply visual detection technology in this scenario. However, due to the special structure of the spherical object, bright marks on the surface will appear at different positions and it is very difficult to photograph in the same direction. The detection device cannot synchronously collect and detect at different heights, resulting in not enough details in the obtained images, and thus the detection effect is not accurate enough; during detection, in order to make the bright marks on the surface of the spherical object more prominent and the details in the obtained images more obvious, multiple light source plates are placed around the spherical object. However, since the sizes of each spherical detection object are different, the angle requirements for the light source plates also need to be adjusted based on the sizes of different spherical detection objects. When those skilled in the art find that the light source plates need to be adjusted during use, the position angles of each light source plate need to be adjusted one by one separately, which is rather troublesome, time-consuming and inefficient; therefore, it is necessary for the inventor to design a new detection device for bright mark defects on the surface of a smooth spherical object to overcome the above problems.

Each time, based on the size of the object to be detected, the servo motor at the bottom of the mounting frame of the light source plate is started, and the gear transmission mechanism drives the plurality of light source plates on the mounting frame to rotate in sequence until they reach the appropriate angles. And a second gear is arranged at the bottom of the mounting frame, which will not be accidentally touched and cause movement. The whole device is relatively convenient and efficient to operate.

[0023] Embodiment 1:

[0024] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2As shown, a detection device for bright trace defects on the surface of a smooth spherical object includes a device body, a mounting plate 1 provided on the device body, a detected object mounting mechanism connected to the mounting plate 1, several detection components connected to the device body, and several light source devices connected to the mounting plate 1; the detected object of the detection device for bright trace defects on the surface of a smooth spherical object described in the present utility model is a spherical object, and the detection device of the present utility model cannot detect the bright trace defects on the surface of objects of other shapes. The detected object mounting mechanism can be arranged at the central position of the device body, and the detection components are arranged around the detected object mounting mechanism; the light source devices are arranged between the detected object mounting mechanism and the detection components and surround the detected object.

[0025] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, each of the light source devices includes a mounting frame 2 rotatably connected to the mounting plate 1, a light source plate 3 fixedly connected to the mounting frame 2, and a rotating mechanism for driving the mounting frame 2 to rotate synchronously; the light source plate 3 is used to illuminate the spherical object to be detected, so that the bright trace defects on the surface of the spherical object can be better revealed, and the rotating mechanism can adjust the light source plate to a suitable angle.

[0026] As Figure 1As shown, each of the rotating mechanisms includes a sprocket component 4 connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 1 to drive the mounting bracket 2 to rotate synchronously, and a chain 5 that cooperates with the sprocket component 4. A first drive assembly for driving the rotation of the sprocket component 4 is connected to one of the sprocket components 4; each of the sprocket components 4 includes a first gear 7, a sprocket 8 fixedly connected concentrically with the first gear 7, and a rotating shaft. Through holes 9 are provided in the mounting bracket 2 and the mounting plate 1, and through holes 9 are also provided in the first gear 7 and the sprocket 8. One end of the rotating shaft passes through the first gear 7, the sprocket 8, and the through hole 9 and is connected to the mounting bracket 2. The chain 5 cooperates with each sprocket 8.

The limiting structure includes a second gear 10 rotatably provided on the mounting plate and cooperating with the first gear 7; the first drive assembly includes a first servo motor 6, and the first servo motor 6 is connected to the other end of the rotating shaft; starting the first servo motor 6 drives the connected sprocket 8 to rotate, and the power is transmitted through the chain 5 to drive several other sprockets to rotate, thereby driving several mounting brackets 2 to rotate synchronously. The several light source plates 3 connected to the mounting brackets 2 also rotate synchronously. The several light source plates 3 synchronously achieve the adjustment of the angle.
