Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of appearance detection, and particularly to a detection device. Background Art

[0002] With the development of automation technology, the production, assembly, and detection of various devices can be automatically carried out by automated devices.

[0003] Taking appearance detection as an example, due to the different shapes of various workpieces to be detected, the specific detection methods and specific detection processes are also different. To fully meet the detection requirements, in the traditional technology, it is often necessary to set up corresponding detection devices for different workpieces respectively to meet the detection needs. However, with such a setting, the versatility of the devices is poor, and the detection cost is high. Summary of the Utility Model

[0009] In one embodiment, the transfer member includes a bracket and a pick-up member. The bracket is disposed on the inspection table. The pick-up member is movably disposed on the bracket to move relative to the bracket at least in two intersecting directions. The pick-up member is configured to pick up the workpiece carried by the transfer member and transfer it to the blanking machine.

[0010] In one embodiment, the inspection machine is detachably connected to at least one of the loading machine, the blanking machine, and another adjacent inspection machine.

[0012] In one embodiment, the tray conveying assembly further includes a vertical frame. The vertical frame is provided with a longitudinal rail, a transverse rail, and a magazine. The lifting member is configured to carry the trays stacked in a reference direction and slidably cooperate with the longitudinal rail in the reference direction to lift any one of the trays to the first station. The material transferring member slidably cooperates with the transverse rail to transport the tray between the first station and the second station. The magazine is located above the first station. The magazine is provided with an entrance. The projection of the entrance on the plane where the first station is located in the reference direction coincides with the first station. The lifting member is configured to push the tray into the magazine from the entrance.

[0013] In one embodiment, the bottom of the magazine in the reference direction is provided with a bearing member and a supporting block. A plurality of the bearing members are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the entrance. The supporting block is rotatably disposed on the bearing member to open or block the entrance. When the lifting member pushes the tray into the entrance in the reference direction, the lifting member drives the supporting block to switch from the blocking state to the open state. The supporting block is configured to switch from the open state to the blocking state when pressed by the tray in the magazine or remain in the blocking state.

[0014] In one embodiment, the material moving component includes a chuck structure that slides with the cross rail, the chuck structure is provided with a avoidance opening for the material tray to pass through, the chuck structure includes a linkage part, a support plate and a push block, the linkage part is linked and connected between the support plate and the push block, the two support plates are respectively arranged on the two opposite sides of the avoidance opening, the two push blocks are respectively arranged on the other opposite sides of the avoidance opening, at least one of the support plates can move in a direction closer to the other to support the material tray, and linkage drives the two push blocks to move in a direction closer to each other.

[0015] In one of the embodiments, the chuck structure includes a base plate, the base plate is provided with a first slide groove and a second slide groove, the first slide groove extends along the movement direction of the support plate, and the second slide groove extends along the sliding direction of the push block; the linkage member is slidably provided in the second slide groove and connected to the support plate, and the push block is slidably provided in the second slide groove; one of the linkage member and the push block is provided with a linkage hole, and the other is provided with a matching column, the matching column passes through the linkage hole and slidably cooperates with the two side hole walls of the linkage hole arranged opposite to each other, and the extension direction of the two side hole walls of the linkage hole arranged opposite to each other intersects with the extension direction of the first slide groove and the extension direction of the second slide groove.

[0016] In the above-mentioned detection equipment, at least two detection machines are independently arranged between the loading machine and the unloading machine, and any detection machine includes a transfer component that can transfer the workpiece to the adjacent detection. Therefore, any increase or decrease of the detection machine between multiple detection machines will not affect the overall transportation of the detection equipment, so the expansibility of the detection equipment is improved. In addition, the transfer component can also receive the workpiece transferred by the transfer component and be used to transfer the workpiece to the transfer component. Then, any detection machine installed between the loading machine and the unloading machine can complete the workpiece received by the loading machine and transfer the workpiece to the unloading machine. Therefore, any detection machine can be added between the loading machine and the unloading machine as an independent expansion module to expand the detection station; or it can be freely removed. With such a setting, the detection machine can be added or removed accordingly according to the specific detection needs, and there is no need to design a separate detection line for each different product, which improves the expansibility and versatility of the detection equipment.

Detailed implementation manners

[0030] In order to make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present application more obvious and understandable, the following will describe in detail the specific implementation manners of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to fully understand the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the connotation of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0031] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that if there are terms such as "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., the orientation or positional relationship indicated by these terms is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. These are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and thus should not be construed as a limitation to the present application.

[0032] In addition, if there are terms such as "first" and "second", these terms are only used for descriptive purposes and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In the description of the present application, if there is a term "plurality", the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0033] In the present application, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, if there are terms such as "installation", "connection", "connection", "fixation", etc., these terms should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or integrated; it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it may be the communication inside two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly limited. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0034] In the present application, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, if there is a description such as a first feature being "on" or "under" a second feature, its meaning may be that the first and second features are in direct contact, or the first and second features are indirectly in contact through an intermediate medium. Moreover, the first feature being "above", "over" and "on" the second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or merely indicates that the first feature has a higher horizontal height than the second feature. The first feature being "under", "beneath" and "under" the second feature may be that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or merely indicates that the first feature has a lower horizontal height than the second feature.

[0035] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may also be an intermediate element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time. If any, the terms "vertical", "horizontal", "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and similar expressions used in this application are only for the purpose of illustration and do not represent the only implementation.

[0036] It should be further noted that each embodiment of this application will focus on the conveyance of workpieces to illustrate how the detection device achieves high versatility. Therefore, as Figure 1 , for the convenience of understanding the conveyance of workpieces, in each embodiment, the side relatively close to the loading in the workpiece conveyance path is denoted as the upstream (such as Figure 1 the side indicated by SY in Figure 1 ), and the side relatively close to the unloading in the workpiece conveyance path is denoted as the downstream (such as

[0037] the side indicated by XY in Figure 1 and Figure 2 ). A detection device 10 provided by an embodiment of this application includes a loading machine 11, a detection machine 12, and an unloading machine 13 that are sequentially distributed, and at least two detection machines 12 are independently disposed between the loading machine 11 and the unloading machine 13.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 3 , the detection device 10 further includes a transfer component 100 and a transfer component 220. The transfer component 100 is disposed between the loading machine 11 and the detection machine 12 for transferring workpieces, and the transfer component 220 is disposed between the detection machine 12 and the unloading machine 13 for transferring workpieces. Any detection machine 12 includes a transplanting component 210, and the transplanting components 210 of adjacent detection machines 12 can transfer workpieces to each other. At the same time, the transplanting component 210 can also receive the workpieces transferred by the transfer component 100 and is used to transfer the workpieces to the transfer component 220.

[0039] The above-mentioned detection device 10 has at least two detection machines 12 independently arranged between the loading machine 11 and the unloading machine 13, and any one of the detection machines 12 includes a transplanting component 210 capable of transferring workpieces to adjacent detections. Therefore, between multiple detection machines 12, arbitrarily adding or reducing the detection machines 12 does not affect the overall conveyance of the detection device 10, thus improving the expandability of the detection device 10. Moreover, the transplanting component 210 can also receive the workpieces transferred by the transfer component 100 and is used to transfer the workpieces to the transfer component 220. Then, any one of the detection machines 12 installed between the loading machine 11 and the unloading machine 13 can complete receiving the workpieces transmitted from the loading machine 11 and transfer the workpieces to the unloading machine 13. Thus, any one of the detection machines 12 can be added between the loading machine 11 and the unloading machine 13 as an independent expansion module without obstacles to expand the detection stations; or can be freely removed. With such a setting, the detection machines 12 can be added or removed accordingly according to specific detection requirements, without separately designing detection lines for each different product, improving the expandability and versatility of the detection device 10.

[0040] As Figure 2 , in an embodiment, the loading machine 11 includes a loading table 11a, the detection machine 12 includes a detection table 300, and the unloading machine 13 includes an unloading table 13a. The transfer component 100 can be arranged on one of the loading table 11a and the detection table 300 at the most upstream, or the transfer component 100 can be installed on both of them at the same time. Similarly, the transfer component 220 can be arranged on one of the detection table 300 at the most downstream and the unloading table 13a, or the transfer component 220 can be installed on both of them at the same time. For the convenience of description in the following embodiments, the case where both the transfer component 100 and the transfer component 220 are arranged on the detection table 300 is taken as an example for description, and the same is true in other cases, so it will not be elaborated any further.

[0041] In an embodiment, the detection machine 12 is detachably connected to at least one of the loading machine 11, the unloading machine 13, and another adjacent detection machine 12. In other words, the adjacent detection machines 12 are detachably connected, the detection machine 12 is detachably connected to the loading machine 11, and the detection machine 12 is detachably connected to the unloading machine 13. With such a setting, the flexibility of the expansion of each component module in the detection device 10 is improved.

[0042] Further, the detection device 10 further includes a connection structure (not shown in the figure, the same below), and the connection structure is detachably connected between adjacent detection machines 12. For example, the connection structure includes a connection plate 513 (not shown in the figure, the same below) and two threaded locking members (not shown in the figure, the same below). The two ends of the connection plate 513 are respectively detachably connected to two adjacent detection machines 12 through the two threaded locking members. Similarly, a connection structure can also be used to achieve detachable connection between the detection machine 12 and the loading machine 11, and between the detection machine 12 and the unloading machine 13. Of course, the detachable connection method can also be set to other forms according to requirements, such as snap connection, pin insertion and fixation, etc., which will not be elaborated here one by one.

[0043] In one embodiment, as Figure 2 , the loading machine 11 may include a loading handling structure 600, and the loading handling structure 600 is used to transfer workpieces to the transfer component 100. The unloading machine 13 may include an unloading handling structure 700, and the unloading handling structure 700 is used to receive the workpieces transferred by the detection machine 12.

[0044] Further, the transfer component 100 can be used to position the picked-up workpiece to improve the position accuracy of the workpiece loaded from the loading machine 11 to the detection machine 12, which is convenient for improving the detection effect. Similarly, the transfer component 220 can be used to position the picked-up workpiece to improve the position accuracy of the unloaded workpiece, which is convenient for unloading and filling.

[0045] Furthermore, the number of detection machines 12 between the loading machine 11 and the unloading machine 13 can be 2, 3, 4, 5, etc., which can be set according to actual needs and will not be limited here. And, the specific detection method of the detection machine 12 in each embodiment of the present application is not limited, as Figure 3 , for example, the detection machine 12 may include a vision detection module to perform vision detection on the workpiece. At the same time, each detection machine 12 can adopt the same detection method, or the detection method of at least one detection machine 12 is different from that of other detection machines 12, which can be set according to requirements in actual application and will not be elaborated here.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 3 to 5 , in one embodiment, the transfer component 100 includes a first frame 110 and a first body 120, and the first body 120 is rotatably arranged on the first frame 110. The first body 120 can limit the workpiece on the bearing side 121 of the first body 120, and when the first body 120 rotates, it can adjust the orientation of the bearing side 121 to be used for receiving the workpieces transferred by the loading machine 11 and transferring the workpieces to the transplanting component 210. As Figure 4, it is easy to understand that the transfer component 100 is arranged between the loading machine 11 and the inspection machine 12. For the transfer component 100, the loading machine 11 and the inspection machine 12 are located at the relatively upstream and relatively downstream respectively. Therefore, setting the first body 120 can drive the workpiece to rotate towards the upstream and towards the downstream, which is convenient for transferring the workpiece transferred by the loading machine 11 to the inspection machine 12.

[0047] Furthermore, as Figure 4 , the first body 120 can rotate relative to the first frame 110 about the first axis O1.

[0048] In one embodiment, the bearing side 121 is provided with a limiting structure (not shown in the figure, the same below). When the loading machine 11 places the workpiece on the bearing side 121, the limiting structure can limit the workpiece so that the workpiece can rotate with the first body 120.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , in one embodiment, the first body 120 includes a carrier 122, a first pushing member 123 and a second pushing member 124. The carrier 122 is rotatably connected to the first frame 110. The bearing side 121 is arranged on the carrier 122, and a positioning block 125 protrudes from the bearing side 121. The first pushing member 123 and the second pushing member 124 are movably arranged on the carrier 122 and move in opposite directions towards and away from the positioning block 125 to jointly clamp the workpiece. By the first pushing member 123 and the second pushing member 124 pushing the workpiece from different directions, on the one hand, the workpiece can be pushed to the expected position, that is, the workpiece is positioned. On the other hand, the first pushing member 123 and the second pushing member 124 can also jointly clamp the workpiece to limit the workpiece so that the workpiece can rotate with the first body 120.

[0050] It should be noted that the first pushing member 123 and the second pushing member 124 can be used as part of the limiting structure to limit and fix the workpiece. Or, in other embodiments, the first pushing member 123 and the second pushing member 124 are only used to position the workpiece, and the transfer component 100 can also be provided with a picking structure (not shown in the figure, the same below). The workpiece is stably limited and fixed on the bearing side 121 of the first body 120 through the picking structure. The picking structure can adopt, for example, vacuum adsorption picking, electromagnetic adsorption picking, etc.

[0051] It should be further noted that the transfer member 100 may be provided with a plurality of drivers, and the plurality of drivers are respectively connected to the first ejecting member 123 and the second ejecting member 124 to drive the first ejecting member 123 and the second ejecting member 124 to move respectively. Alternatively, the first ejecting member 123 and the second ejecting member 124 may be connected by a linkage structure (not shown in the figure, the same below), and when the driver drives one of the first ejecting member 123 and the second ejecting member 124, the other can be driven to move synchronously.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 3 , in one embodiment, the inspection machine 12 further includes a plurality of inspection modules 400 provided on the inspection table 300. Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 7 , an inspection machine 12 may include a plurality of transfer components 210, and the transfer components 210 are movably provided on the inspection table 300 to transport the workpiece to the inspection range of the inspection module 400. The transfer component 210 is used to pick up the workpiece transferred by the transfer member 100 and transfer the workpiece to the transfer component 210 of another inspection machine 12 or the blanking machine 13.

[0053] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 7 , in one embodiment, the inspection table 300 is provided with a transfer platform 310, and a plurality of transfer components 210 are all connected to the transfer platform 310, and the transfer platform 310 can drive each transfer component 210 to move respectively.

[0054] It can be understood that when the workpiece transfer requirements and inspection requirements are met, the inspection machine 12 may also be provided with only one transfer component 210.

[0055] Furthermore, the transfer component 210 may include a second frame 211 and a second body 212, and the second body 212 is rotatably connected to the second frame 211. The second body 212 is provided with a transfer side 212a, and the second body 212 can limit the workpiece on the transfer side 212a. When the second body 212 rotates relative to the second frame 211, it can adjust the angle of the transfer side 212a facing the inspection module 400, that is, when the second body 212 rotates relative to the second frame 211, it can adjust the angle of the workpiece facing the inspection module 400 to facilitate full inspection of the workpiece. The second body 212 includes a transfer body 212b and a plurality of picking fixtures 212c provided on the transfer body 212b. The plurality of picking fixtures 212c are spaced apart and used to fix the workpiece. The transfer side 212a is arranged on the transfer body 212b, and a plurality of picking fixtures 212c are all arranged on the transfer side 212a of the transfer body 212b. It can be understood that when the second body 212 rotates relative to the second frame 211, it can also make the transfer side 212a face upstream or downstream.

[0056] Such as Figure 4, Further, the second body 212 can rotate around the second axis O2 relative to the second frame 211 to switch between the upstream and downstream directions. The picking jig 212c can rotate around the third axis O3 relative to the transplanting body 212b. The second axis O2 intersects the third axis O3. Thus, after the transplanting component 210 drives the workpiece to the detection module 400, it can drive the second body 212 to rotate and / or the picking jig 212c to rotate, so that the workpiece is within the detection range of the detection module 400 at different angular postures, improving the comprehensiveness of detection.

[0057] In one embodiment, the way the picking jig 212c picks up the workpiece can be specifically set according to different types, shapes, and materials of the workpiece, such as vacuum adsorption picking, magnetic adsorption picking, or snap connection picking, etc.

[0058] Since the second body 212 of the transplanting component 210 can rotate relative to the second frame 211 to face upstream or downstream, when the transplanting component 210 faces downstream, the transplanting component 210 can transfer the workpiece to the blanking machine 13 or to the transfer component 100 of another detection machine 12.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 4 , In one embodiment, the transfer component 220 includes a bracket 221 and a picking member 222. The bracket 221 is disposed on the detection table 300, and the picking member 222 is movably disposed on the bracket 221 to move relative to the bracket 221 at least in two intersecting directions. The picking member 222 is used to pick up the workpiece carried by the transplanting component 210 and transfer it to the blanking machine 13.

[0060] Further, the bracket 221 can adopt the structure style of a gantry to support the picking member 222. The bracket 221 includes a longitudinal beam 221a and a cross beam 221b. The two longitudinal beams 221a are respectively disposed on both sides of the transplanting platform 310, and the cross beam 221b spans across the transplanting platform 310 and is slidably engaged with the longitudinal beam 221a. The picking member 222 is disposed on the cross beam 221b and is slidably engaged with the cross beam 221b. Thus, by sliding the cross beam 221b relative to the longitudinal beam 221a and sliding the picking member 222 relative to the cross beam 221b, the position of the picking member 222 can be adjusted to make it in the desired position.

[0061] Regarding the transfer of the workpiece between the transfer component 100 and the transplanting component 210, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 , It is easy to understand that both the first body 120 and the second body 212 can rotate, and they can rotate to a face-to-face posture (i.e., the loading side 121 and the transplanting side 212a are distributed oppositely). At this time, the transfer component 100 picks up one side of the workpiece, and the transplanting component 210 can approach the transfer component 100 and pick up the opposite side of the workpiece to achieve the transfer of the workpiece.

[0062] It should be noted that the transfer component 100 is not limited to being arranged between the loading machine 11 and the detection machine 12 at the most upstream. There can be multiple transfer components 100, and the transfer components 100 are arranged on the upstream side of the detection machine 12 in one-to-one correspondence with the detection machine 12. Similarly, the transfer component 220 is not limited to being arranged between the detection machine 12 at the most downstream and the unloading machine 13. There can be multiple transfer components 220, and the transfer components 220 are arranged on the downstream side of the detection machine 12 in one-to-one correspondence with the detection machine 12. When both the transfer component 100 and the transfer component 220 are provided on the detection table 300 of a detection machine 12, the transfer component 100 of this detection machine 12 can be used to receive the workpieces transferred by the transfer component 220 of the loading machine 11 or the detection machine 12 located upstream, and transfer the workpieces to the transplanting component 210; the transfer component 220 of this detection machine 12 can receive the workpieces transferred by the transplanting component 210 of this detection machine 12, and transfer the workpieces to the transfer component 100 of another detection machine 12 located downstream, or transfer them to the unloading machine 13.

[0063] Please refer to Figure 8 , in one embodiment, at least one of the loading machine 11 and the unloading machine 13 is provided with a tray conveying assembly 500. The tray conveying assembly 500 includes a lifting component 510 and a material transferring component 520. The lifting component 510 is used to carry and convey a plurality of trays 20 stacked on top of each other to the first station 501. The material transferring component 520 is used to convey a tray 20 at the first station 501 to the second station 502 for loading workpieces or removing workpieces from the tray 20. Taking the tray conveying assembly 500 used for the loading machine 11 as an example, at this time, the full-load trays 20 can be filled at the lifting component 510, and the full-load trays 20 move to the first station 501 under the drive of the lifting component 510. Moreover, the tray 20 at the first station 501 moves to the second station 502 under the drive of the material transferring component 520. It can be understood that the second station 502 can be a position convenient for the loading and handling structure 600 to take away the workpieces. That is to say, with such a setting, through the cooperation of the lifting component 510 and the material transferring component 520, it is possible to automatically convey the workpieces to a position convenient for taking materials, which is convenient for realizing automatic loading.

[0064] The same is true when the tray conveying assembly 500 is used for the unloading machine 13. The empty trays 20 can be filled at the lifting component 510, and the empty trays 20 move to the first station 501 under the drive of the lifting component 510. Moreover, the empty trays 20 at the first station 501 can move to the second station 502 under the drive of the material transferring component 520. The second station 502 can be a position convenient for the unloading and handling structure 700 to load the workpieces into the tray 20.

[0065] Please refer to Figure 8 andFigure 9 In one embodiment, the tray conveying assembly 500 further includes a vertical frame 530. The vertical frame 530 is provided with a longitudinal rail 531, a transverse rail 532 and a storage bin 533. The lifting member 510 is used to carry the trays 20 stacked along the reference direction S and slidably cooperate with the longitudinal rail 531 along the reference direction S to lift any one of the trays 20 to the first station 501. Since the trays 20 are stacked along the reference direction S and the lifting member 510 lifts along the reference direction S, the lifting member 510 can lift any one of the trays 20 to the first station 501. The transfer member 520 is slidably engaged with the transverse rail 532 to transport the tray 20 between the first station 501 and the second station 502. The storage bin 533 is located above the first station 501. The storage bin 533 is provided with an inlet 533a. The projection of the inlet 533a on the plane where the first station 501 is located along the reference direction S coincides with the first station 501. The lifting member 510 is used to push the tray 20 into the storage bin 533 from the inlet 533a. Since the projection of the inlet 533a coincides with the first station 501, after the lifting member 510 transports the tray 20 to the first station 501, not only can the transfer member 520 pick it up, but also the tray 20 can be further lifted to store the tray 20 in the storage bin 533.

[0066] In the above-mentioned tray conveying assembly 500, since the transfer member 520 can transport the tray 20 between the first station 501 and the second station 502, when the tray 20 finishes picking up or loading workpieces at the second station 502, the transfer member 520 can transport the tray 20 back to the first station 501. The tray 20 at the first station 501 can be pushed into the storage bin 533 under the action of the lifting member 510, completing the unloading of the tray 20. Thus, through the cooperation of the transfer member 520 and the lifting member 510, not only can the loading of the tray 20 be realized, but also the recycling and unloading of the tray 20 can be realized, and the structure is simple and compact.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 8 In one embodiment, the lifting member 510 includes a lifting table 510a and a lifting driver 510b. The lifting table 510a is used to place the tray 20, and the lifting driver 510b is connected to the lifting table 510a to drive the lifting table 510a to lift the tray 20 along the reference direction S.

[0068] Furthermore, as Figure 9, the vertical frame 530 further includes a material placement plate 536. The lifting platform 510a includes a lifting plate 511, a connecting rod 512, and a connecting plate 513. The lifting plate 511 and the connecting plate 513 are respectively located on both sides of the material placement plate 536. The connecting rod 512 passes through the material placement plate 536 to connect between the lifting plate 511 and the connecting plate 513. The longitudinal rail 531 and the connecting plate 513 are located on the same side of the material placement plate 536, and the connecting plate 513 is slidably engaged with the longitudinal rail 531. Compared with directly arranging the longitudinal rail 531 on the side of the material placement plate 536 facing the first station 501, such an arrangement can simplify the structure of the tray conveying assembly 500 on the side of the material placement plate 536 facing the first station 501, thereby facilitating the arrangement of the material transfer component 520.

[0069] Please refer to Figure 10 , in one embodiment, a bearing member 534 and a supporting block 535 are provided at the bottom of the magazine 533 in the reference direction S. A plurality of bearing members 534 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the inlet 533a. The supporting block 535 is rotatably provided on the bearing member 534 to open or block the inlet 533a. When the lifting member 510 pushes the tray 20 into the inlet 533a along the reference direction S, it drives the supporting block 535 to switch from the blocking state to the open state. In this way, when the lifting member 510 pushes the tray 20 into the inlet 533a, the tray 20 can automatically enter the magazine 533. The supporting block 535 is used to switch from the open state to the blocking state when being pressed by the tray 20 in the magazine 533, or to remain in the blocking state. Thus, when the lifting member 510 stops lifting, the tray 20 can press down the supporting block 535 to automatically close it.

[0070] Further, please refer to Figure 10 , in one example, the supporting block 535 includes a rotating portion 535a and a beak portion 535b that is eccentrically arranged with respect to the rotating portion 535a. When in the blocking state, at least a part of the beak portion 535b extends into the inlet 533a to block the inlet 533a and support the tray 20 in the magazine 533. When the lifting member 510 drives the tray 20 to lift the beak portion 535b, the beak portion 535b will rotate around the rotating portion 535a to allow the tray 20 to enter the magazine 533. When the tray 20 enters the magazine 533 and the lifting member 510 retracts, the tray 20 in the magazine 533 can press down the beak portion 535b due to gravity, causing the beak portion 535b to return to the blocking state.

[0071] Further, the magazine 533 may further be provided with a reset member 535c. The reset member 535c is elastically connected between the bearing member 534 and the supporting block 535 to elastically push the supporting block 535 back to the blocking state. The reset member 535c can be to push the beak portion 535b, causing the beak portion 535b to rotate around the rotating portion 535a and return to the blocking state. The reset member 535c can be a compression spring.

[0072] In one embodiment, the beak 535b is tilted at a side surface close to the first work station 501 so that the lifting component 510 gradually lifts the beak 535b to rotate.

[0073] See also Figure 9 In one embodiment, the material moving component 520 includes a material moving platform 520a and a chuck structure 520b, and the chuck structure 520b is used to pick up the material tray 20 and drive the material tray 20 to move. The chuck structure 520b is arranged on the material moving platform 520a to move with the material moving platform 520a between the first station 501 and the second station 502. The material moving platform 520a and the chuck structure 520b can be respectively slidably matched with the cross rail 532 to improve the stability of the movement.

[0074] like Figure 11 and Figure 12 The chuck structure 520b is provided with an avoidance opening 521 for the feed tray 20 to pass through. The chuck structure 520b includes a linkage member 522, a support plate 523 and a push block 524. The linkage member 522 is linked and connected between the support plate 523 and the push block 524. The two support plates 523 are respectively arranged on the two sides facing each other of the avoidance opening 521, and the two push blocks 524 are respectively arranged on the other two opposite sides of the avoidance opening 521. At least one support plate 523 can move in a direction close to the other to lift the feed tray 20, and link and drive the two push blocks 524 to move in a direction close to each other. In this way, the chuck structure 520b can clamp the feed tray 20 through a simple structure to drive the feed tray 20 to move.

[0075] Furthermore, the chuck structure 520b includes a bottom plate 525, and the bottom plate 525 is provided with a first slide groove 525a and a second slide groove 525b, wherein the first slide groove 525a extends along the movement direction of the support plate 523. The linkage member 522 is slidably provided in the first slide groove 525a and connected to the support plate 523, so that when the support plate 523 moves, the linkage member 522 can be driven to slide along the first slide groove 525a.

[0076] The second slide groove 525 b extends along the sliding direction of the push block 524 . The push block 524 is slidably disposed in the second slide groove 525 b . Therefore, the second slide groove 525 b can guide and limit the movement of the push block 524 .

[0077] One of the linkage member 522 and the push block 524 is provided with a linkage hole 522a, and the other is provided with a mating post 524a. The mating post 524a passes through the linkage hole 522a and is in sliding fit with the opposite side hole walls of the linkage hole 522a. The extending directions of the opposite side hole walls of the linkage hole 522a intersect with both the extending direction of the first chute 525a and the extending direction of the second chute 525b. Since the hole wall of the linkage hole 522a is inclined, after the linkage member 522 is driven by the receiving plate 523 to move along the first chute 525a, the hole wall of the linkage hole 522a can convert the driving force into a driving force along the second chute 525b to drive the push block 524 to move. Thus, the linkage clamping and positioning is realized.

[0078] In one embodiment, the chuck structure 520b further includes a chuck driver 520c. The chuck driver 520c is connected to one of the receiving plates 523, and the chuck driver 520c is configured to drive the receiving plate 523 to move in a direction close to or away from the other receiving plate 523. For example, as Figure 12 , when the receiving plate 523 is driven by the chuck driver 520c to move in a direction close to the other receiving plate 523, the linkage member 522 moves along the direction of the first chute 525a accordingly. At this time, through the cooperation of the linkage hole 522a and the mating post 524a, the push block 524 can move along the second chute 525b to cooperate with the receiving plate 523 to jointly clamp the tray 20.

[0079] Further, the receiving plate 523 can move along the first direction S1, and the push block 524 can move along the second direction S2, and the first direction S1 intersects with the second direction S2. Further still, the first direction S1 can be perpendicular to the second direction S2.

[0080] To facilitate understanding of the detection device 10 described in the embodiments of the present application, the general conveyance of the workpiece and the detection device 10 will be briefly described below. As Figure 2, from upstream to downstream, the detection device 10 sequentially includes a loading machine 11, a transfer component 100, at least two detection machines 12, a transfer component 220, and an unloading machine 13. The loading machine 11 includes at least one tray conveying component 500. After the tray conveying component 500 loads the tray 20 to the second station 502, the loading and handling component can handle the workpiece to the transfer component 100. After receiving the workpiece, the transfer component 100 can transfer it to the transplanting component 210. The transplanting component 210 can transport the workpiece to the detection range corresponding to each detection module 400 for detection. Subsequently, the transplanting component 210 can transfer the workpiece to the transplanting component 210 of another adjacent detection machine. In each detection machine 12, the above actions of the transfer component 100 can be repeated until the last detection machine 12 upstream of the unloading machine 13. At this time, the transplanting component 210 of this detection machine 12 transfers the workpiece to the unloading and handling structure 700. Thereafter, the unloading and handling structure 700 can fill the workpiece into the tray 20 at the second station 502 in the tray conveying component 500. When the tray 20 at the second station 502 in the unloading machine 13 is filled, the material transfer component 520 transports the workpiece back to the first station 501. The fully loaded tray 20 at the first station 501 can enter the silo 533 under the lifting of the lifting component 510 to complete unloading.

[0081] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope recorded in this specification.
