[0046] Embodiment 1
[0047] In view of the defects existing in the above-mentioned prior art, based on the rich practical experience and professional knowledge in the design and manufacture of such products for many years by the applicant, and in cooperation with the application of theory, the applicant actively conducts research and innovation in the hope of creating a technology that can solve the defects in the prior art. After continuous research, design, and repeated sample making and improvement, the applicant finally creates the present utility model with practical value.
[0048] Please refer to Figure 1-3 , the embodiments of the present utility model provide a backlight source device with a unique structural design and high efficiency, including:
[0049] A housing 1, the interior of the housing 1 is hollow to accommodate and protect the components inside. Particularly crucial is that one end of the housing 1 is designed to be open, and this unique design can solve the problem of insufficient illumination under the workpiece due to occlusion;
[0050] A lamp board 2, the lamp board 2 is arranged inside the housing 1, and the lamp board 2 serves as the light-emitting body, ensuring that the backlight source device can emit bright and uniform light.
[0051] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the convenience and practicality of the backlight source device in actual applications are particularly considered. By designing one end of the housing 1 to be open, when the device is placed above the rotating platform, the open end of the housing 1 can face down naturally. This design enables the area corresponding to the open end of the backlight source device directly below the workpiece on the rotating platform to receive light irradiation directly and unobstructed. This feature ensures that the light can fully cover every area of the workpiece, achieving uniform illumination across the entire area. This not only improves the efficiency of visual inspection but also provides clearer and more accurate original data for subsequent image processing, thereby significantly enhancing the overall quality of visual inspection or image processing.
[0052] Please refer to 2-4 again. In this embodiment, the housing 1 includes two side plates 11, a diffuser plate 12, a top plate 13, and a back plate 14;
[0053] One of the side plates 11, the diffuser plate 12, the other side plate 11, and the back plate 14 are sequentially connected to form a rectangular frame structure with openings at both ends;
[0054] The top plate 13 is disposed at the opening at one end of the rectangular frame structure.
[0055] Please refer to 2-4 again. In this embodiment, the housing 1 has a unique and delicate structural design. Specifically, the housing 1 includes the following main parts:
[0056] First, there are two side plates 11, which are located on both sides of the device respectively and play a role in supporting and fixing. These two side plates 11, together with the diffuser plate 12 and the back plate 14, constitute the main frame of the device;
[0057] Secondly, the diffuser plate 12 is located between the two side plates 11. Its design purpose is to evenly diffuse the light emitted by the lamp board 2 to ensure the same brightness in the entire illumination area. The material and surface treatment of the diffuser plate 12 are carefully selected to achieve the best diffusion effect.
[0058] Thirdly, the back plate 14 is located at the back of the device and is tightly connected to the two side plates 11; One of the side plates 11, the diffuser plate 12, the other side plate 11, and the back plate 14 are sequentially connected to form a rectangular frame structure with openings at both ends; This rectangular frame structure is not only stable and reliable but also provides a stable space for the installation of the lamp board 2.
[0059] Finally, the top plate 13 is disposed at the opening at one end of the rectangular frame structure. The design of the top plate 13 is such that only one end of the housing 1 is in an open state. When the backlight source device is placed above the rotating platform, the open end is placed downward, so that the area below the workpiece on the rotating platform corresponds to the open end of the housing 1, thus achieving unobstructed illumination.
[0060] Such a design not only ensures that the light can cover the entire area of the workpiece, achieves uniform illumination of the entire area of the workpiece, improves the quality of visual inspection or image processing, but also makes the structure of the entire device more compact and reasonable, and is easy to install and maintain.
[0061] Please refer to 4 again. In this embodiment, both of the two side plates 11 are provided with card slots 15 for fixing the lamp board 2.
[0062] It should be noted that the design of the card slot 15 ensures that the lamp board 2 can be firmly installed inside the backlight source device, avoiding the possible shaking or falling off during the working process. The shape and size of the card slot 15 are customized according to the specific specifications and dimensions of the lamp board 2 to ensure that the lamp board 2 can be tightly and stably embedded therein.
[0063] Through this design, we can not only ensure the stability and reliability of the lamp board 2, but also improve the assembly efficiency and convenience of the entire backlight source device. At the same time, this way of fixing with card slots also makes the replacement and maintenance of the lamp board 2 simpler and more convenient, further enhancing the use value and user experience of the backlight source device.
[0064] In another embodiment, the backlight source device of the present utility model is further optimized and improved. Specifically, in addition to the original side plates 11, diffusion plate 12, top plate 13 and back plate 14 of the housing 1, a bottom plate is newly added.
[0065] This bottom plate is cleverly disposed at the opening at the other end of the rectangular frame structure, and together with the side plates 11, diffusion plate 12 and back plate 14, it forms a completely enclosed box structure. Importantly, this bottom plate is made of a transparent plate material, such as glass or transparent plastic, etc., to ensure that the light can penetrate the bottom plate smoothly and irradiate the workpiece.
[0066] By adding the bottom plate and using a transparent material, while maintaining the uniform diffusion of light, the backlight source device also enhances the stability and dust-proof ability of the entire device. In addition, the transparent bottom plate can make the light softer, reduce the generation of glare and shadows, and further improve the quality of visual inspection or image processing.
[0067] In summary, this backlight source device with an additional bottom plate not only has a more complete and stable structure, but also has more comprehensive and powerful functions, and can meet the usage requirements in more different scenarios.
[0068] Please refer to 4 again. In this embodiment, the backlight source device is further optimized, and in particular, thermal conductive silicone 3 is introduced as a key component. The thermal conductive silicone 3 is carefully placed between the back of the lamp board 2 and the housing 1, playing an important role in heat conduction and fixation.
[0069] As a high-performance thermal conductive material, the thermal conductive silicone 3 has excellent thermal conductivity and good insulation performance. It can effectively transfer the heat generated by the lamp board 2 to the housing 1, and then dissipate the heat to the surrounding environment through the heat dissipation structure of the housing 1, thereby ensuring that the lamp board 2 can operate stably at a lower temperature and improving the service life and reliability of the entire backlight source device.
[0070] In addition, the thermal conductive silicone 3 also has good adhesiveness and compressibility, and can closely adhere between the lamp board 2 and the housing 1, playing a role in fixation and buffering. This can not only prevent the lamp board 2 from being displaced or damaged during vibration or impact, but also reduce the noise and vibration interference generated by vibration or impact, further improving the stability and reliability of the backlight source device.
[0071] In summary, by introducing the thermal conductive silicone 3 as a key component, the backlight source device of this embodiment not only maintains uniform light diffusion, but also has better thermal conduction and fixation performance, and can meet the higher requirements of industrial application scenarios.
[0072] In this embodiment, the lamp board 2 of the backlight source device has a more detailed structure. Specifically, the lamp board 2 is composed of a PCB (printed circuit board) and several lamp beads, and these lamp beads are precisely arranged on the PCB.
[0073] As the substrate of the lamp board 2, the PCB provides the basis for electrical connection. Its design ensures the stable transmission of current and the uniformity of distribution, providing the necessary support for the normal operation of the lamp beads.
[0074] As for the lamp beads, as the light-emitting elements, they directly determine the lighting effect of the backlight source device. These lamp beads can be LEDs (light-emitting diodes) or other suitable light-emitting elements. In order to ensure the uniformity of light distribution and the stability of the lighting effect, these LED lamp beads are evenly spaced on the PCB. Such a layout not only ensures that the light can evenly illuminate the workpiece, but also avoids the brightness difference and shadow caused by uneven distribution of the lamp beads.
[0075] In addition, the selection of LED lamp beads has also been carefully considered. They have the advantages of high efficiency, energy saving, long lifespan, etc., and can meet the requirements of the backlight source device for long-term stable operation. At the same time, through reasonable circuit design and lamp bead layout, precise control and adjustment of light can also be achieved to adapt to different workpieces and lighting requirements.
[0076] In summary, the lamp board 2 in this embodiment realizes efficient, stable, and uniform lighting effects by using a PCB and LED lamp beads evenly spaced, making an important contribution to the improvement of the overall performance of the backlight source device.
[0077] Although terms such as housing, lamp board, heat-conducting silicone, etc. are used more frequently in this application, the possibility of using other terms is not excluded. Using these terms is only to more conveniently describe and explain the essence of the present utility model; interpreting them as any additional limitation is contrary to the spirit of the present utility model.
[0078] A backlight source device provided by the present utility model, by designing a backlight source device with one end of the housing open, when placed above the rotating platform, the open end of the housing can be placed below, so that the area corresponding to the open end of the backlight source below the workpiece on the rotating platform can be irradiated without obstruction, ensuring that the light covers the entire area of the workpiece and realizing uniform illumination of the entire area of the workpiece, which is beneficial to improving the quality of visual inspection or image processing.
[0079] Embodiment 2
[0080] Please refer to Figure 5-6 , the embodiment of the present utility model provides a machine vision inspection system, which mainly includes two core components: an image acquisition module 100 and a backlight source device 200, wherein the backlight source device 200 adopts the design in the first embodiment above.
[0081] In this machine vision inspection system, the design of the backlight source device 200 is particularly crucial. Through the carefully designed structure with one end of the housing open, when the backlight source device 200 is placed above the rotating platform, the open end of the housing can be placed downward. Such a design makes the area below the workpiece on the rotating platform correspond to the open end of the backlight source device 200, thus realizing unobstructed illumination. This unobstructed illumination method ensures that the light can cover the entire area of the workpiece and realizes uniform illumination of the entire area of the workpiece.
[0082] Uniform illumination of the entire area is crucial for improving the quality of visual inspection or image processing. The uniform light distribution can ensure that the images captured by the image acquisition module 100 are clear and accurate, avoiding shadows or bright spots caused by uneven light, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of subsequent image processing.
[0083] As another important component of the machine vision inspection system, the image acquisition module 100 is responsible for capturing the images of the workpieces. By working in coordination with the backlight source device 200, the image acquisition module 100 can obtain high-quality and high-definition images, providing reliable data support for subsequent image processing and analysis.
[0084] In summary, the machine vision inspection system provided by the present utility model realizes the global uniform illumination of the workpieces through the design of the backlight source device 200 with one end open, improving the quality of vision inspection or image processing. This system has broad application prospects in the fields of industrial automation, quality inspection, etc.
