Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art that the illuminance of the planar light source on the surface of the object to be measured is uneven, the contrast is not good, and the acquired image features are difficult to meet the detection requirements, and to provide an arc surface light source system and a detection system.

[0011] Preferably, one side of the light guide plate is provided with microstructures, and the other side is a smooth surface. The microstructures can reflect light. By providing the microstructures that can reflect light, part of the light can be directly emitted from the smooth surface, and the other part of the light can be emitted from the smooth surface after being reflected by the microstructures. Therefore, the smooth surface can be arranged close to the object to be detected, so that most of the light can be emitted towards the object to be detected, thereby improving the utilization rate of light and meeting the brightness requirements for visual inspection.

[0017] Preferably, the two arc-shaped surface light source systems are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the object to be detected, and the light guide plate is bent towards the object to be detected. In this way, through the two relatively arranged arc-shaped surface light source systems, the defect detection of the entire outer peripheral wall of the object to be detected can be completed at one station, improving the detection efficiency.

[0018] Preferably, a plurality of the image acquisition devices are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the arc-shaped surface light source system, and the axis of the image acquisition device is perpendicular to the arc-shaped surface of the light guide plate.

[0039] Example 1

[0040] As Figure 1-2 shown, a curved surface light source system includes a first light source 1, a second light source 2, and a light guide plate 3. The first light source 1 and the second light source 2 are arranged at intervals, and the light guide plate 3 is arranged between the first light source 1 and the second light source 2, that is, the first light source 1 and the second light source 2 are respectively arranged on both sides of the light guide plate 3, and the first light source 1 and the second light source 2 emit light into the light guide plate 3 and then emit it out. Preferably, an outer frame 9 can be provided to fix the first light source 1 and the second light source 2, and the light guide plate can be directly clamped between the first light source 1 and the second light source 2. In a specific implementation manner, the first light source 1 can be arranged at the upper end of the light guide plate 3, and the first light source 1 can be arranged at the lower end of the light guide plate 3, and the light guide plate 3 is vertically placed between the first light source 1 and the second light source 2.

[0041] The first light source 1 includes a plurality of lamp beads arranged in an arc, and the second light source 2 also includes a plurality of lamp beads arranged in an arc. The first light source 1 and the second light source 2 are respectively arranged on two sides with a curvature of the light guide plate 3. In a further preferred technical solution, the curvature of the trajectory line of the lamp beads is consistent with the curvature of the arc surface of the light guide plate 3, so as to facilitate the light of the light source to enter the light guide plate 3, improve the utilization rate of light, and also can minimize the thickness and occupied space of the first light source 1 and the second light source 2.

[0042] Preferably, the lamp beads of the first light source 1 and the lamp beads of the second light source 2 are arranged oppositely. For example, the lamp beads of the first light source 1 emit light downward, and the light enters the light guide plate 3 from the upper end of the light guide plate 3; the lamp beads of the second light source 2 emit light upward, and the light enters the light guide plate 3 from the lower end of the light guide plate 3.

[0043] The light guide plate 3 is a transparent arc-shaped plate, such as a PMMA plate. By setting the arc-shaped light guide plate 3 as a transparent structure, the image acquisition device 6 can be directly arranged on one side of the light guide plate 3, which is convenient for the deployment of the image acquisition device 6 and also convenient for perspective capture, so as to meet the detection requirements of the defect characteristics of the arc-shaped outer wall.

[0044] As Figure 3 shown, in an optional implementation manner, a micro-structure can be provided on one arc-shaped side surface (i.e., the first side surface 31) of the light guide plate 3, and the opposite arc-shaped side surface (i.e., the second side surface 32) can be set as a smooth surface, and the micro-structure can reflect light.

[0045] After setting the microstructures capable of reflecting light, when the light emitted by the lamp beads enters the light guide plate 3, part of the light can directly exit from the light-emitting surface, and the other part of the light can be reflected by the microstructures and then exit from the light-emitting surface after hitting the microstructures. Therefore, the light-emitting surface can be arranged close to the object to be detected, so that most of the light can be directed towards the object to be detected, thereby improving the utilization rate of light and meeting the brightness requirements for visual inspection. Further, the microstructures can be arc-shaped protrusions, arc-shaped depressions, etc., and the microstructures are arranged in an array or irregularly, such as randomly arranged.

[0046] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 4-5 shown, a protection plate 4 can also be arranged near the arc-shaped side surface provided with the microstructures, that is, the protection plate 4 is arranged close to the first side surface 31. The protection plate 4 can be set as a transparent arc-shaped plate, and the protection plate 4 is used to protect the microstructures and reduce the wear of the microstructures.

[0047] In an alternative embodiment, a radiator 5 can also be arranged at the first light source 1 and the second light source 2, and the radiator 5 is used for dissipating heat from the first light source 1 and the second light source 2.

[0048] Embodiment 2

[0049] As Figure 6 shown, a detection system includes an image acquisition device 6 and also includes an arc-shaped surface light source system as described in Embodiment 1.

[0050] In an alternative embodiment, the two arc-shaped surface light source systems are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the object to be detected 7, and the light guide plate 3 is bent towards the object to be detected, that is, the object to be detected 7 can be arranged between the two arc-shaped surface light source systems, and the two arc-shaped surface light source systems are arranged around the object to be detected 7. In this way, after the object to be detected 7 is placed on the conveyor belt 8, through the two relatively arranged arc-shaped surface light source systems, the defect detection of the entire outer peripheral wall of the object to be detected 7 can be completed at one station, improving the detection efficiency.

[0051] In an alternative embodiment, a plurality of the image acquisition devices 6 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the arc-shaped surface light source system, and the axis of the image acquisition device 6 is perpendicular to the arc-shaped surface of the light guide plate 3. With such an arrangement, it is convenient for the image acquisition device to collect the defect information of the outer wall to be detected, improving the defect detection accuracy.

[0052] In some embodiments, the diameter of the object to be detected 7 (receiving surface): 50 mm, height 80 mm, outer diameter of the light guide plate: 300 mm, height 120 mm, wall thickness of the light guide plate: 5 mm. In the simulation results, the lighting range formed by the light source system is about 100°, the illuminance of the receiving surface: 3000 LUX, and the surface illuminance uniformity: 85%, as Figure 7-8As shown, it can meet the requirements of visual inspection.

[0053] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
