[0044] Embodiment 1
[0045] 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 manufacturing of this field for many years, 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, a truly practical and valuable utility model has finally been created.
[0046] Please refer to Figures 1 - 3 , the embodiment of the present utility model provides a linear product detection light source, and its design purpose is to improve the accuracy and efficiency of the quality detection of diamond wires. This detection light source mainly includes the following parts:
[0047] First, there is a housing 1 in an arched structure, and this housing 1 forms an arched space. This arched design is optimized based on the shape of the diamond wire to better adapt to and illuminate the diamond wire.
[0048] Secondly, inside the arched space formed by the housing 1, there are two spaced-apart lamp boards 2. These two lamp boards 2 are also in an arched structure, and their light-emitting surfaces face each other. This layout enables the light source to evenly irradiate the diamond wire (i.e., Figure 1Each part of the thick line passing through the housing 1 is ensured to have accurate detection results. Specifically, due to the arc of the diamond wire, if the light source irradiates from the front and back sides of the diamond wire, there will be relatively thin bright line spots, and the particles of diamond abrasive cannot be evenly irradiated. However, if the light source irradiates from the left and right sides of the diamond wire, the particles can be evenly irradiated.
[0049] In addition, a diffusion film 3 is provided in front of the light-emitting surface of each lamp board 2. The function of the diffusion film 3 is to diffuse and homogenize the light emitted by the lamp board 2, preventing the diamond abrasive on the diamond wire and the background color of the wire body from being difficult to distinguish due to too strong or too weak light. Through the filtering and diffusion effects of the diffusion film, the diamond abrasive on the diamond wire can be evenly and clearly irradiated, facilitating subsequent detection and analysis. Specifically, when irradiating from the left and right sides of the diamond wire, although the particles can be evenly irradiated, the background of the wire body of the diamond wire will be black, and the wire width of the diamond wire cannot be detected. Therefore, it is selected to add a diffusion film to allow part of the light to be diffusely reflected onto the wire body, making the wire body appear gray and the diamond abrasive particles appear white, so that the wire body and the diamond abrasive particles can be distinguished.
[0050] Through the design of this embodiment, not only can the diamond abrasive on the diamond wire be evenly irradiated, but also the colors of the diamond abrasive and the wire body background can be effectively distinguished. In this way, both the wire width of the diamond wire and the number of diamond abrasive particles can be detected, providing strong support for the comprehensive evaluation of the quality of the diamond wire. Finally, this design is beneficial to ensuring the cutting quality, improving the production efficiency, and meeting the urgent needs of the photovoltaic industry for high-quality diamond wire.
[0051] It can be understood that for other linear products, the detection light source provided by this embodiment can be well compatible.
[0052] Please refer to again Figure 1 and 3 In this embodiment, the structure of the housing 1 is further refined. Specifically, the housing 1 is mainly composed of an arched plate 11 and two arched end plates 12. The arched plate 11 is the main part of the housing, forming a main arched space for accommodating and supporting the lamp board 2. The two arched end plates 12 are respectively located at both ends of the arched plate 11, playing the role of strengthening the housing 1 and closing both ends of the housing 1.
[0053] This design not only enhances the stability and structural strength of the housing 1, but also helps to improve the lighting effect of the light source. Through the combination of the arched plate 11 and the arched end plates 12, a complete arched structure is formed, enabling the light source to better adapt to the shape of the diamond wire and achieve more uniform and accurate irradiation.
[0054] In addition, this design also takes into account the ease of use and maintainability of the light source. The presence of the arched end plates 12 makes the two ends of the housing 1 form openings, facilitating the installation, replacement, and maintenance of the lamp panel 2 and the diffusion film 3. At the same time, the connection between the arched plate 11 and the arched end plates 12 can also adopt a detachable design, further improving the flexibility and maintainability of the light source.
[0055] Please refer again to Figure 1 and 3 , in this embodiment, the arched plate 11 is further designed with an imaging hole 4. The purpose of this design is to allow the image acquisition module to capture and acquire images of the diamond wire through the imaging hole 4. Through the imaging hole 4, clear images of the diamond wire can be obtained in real time, facilitating the accurate measurement and analysis of key parameters such as the wire width of the diamond wire and the number of abrasive grains of the diamond powder.
[0056] The position and size of the imaging hole 4 will be carefully designed to ensure that the image acquisition module can capture the best image quality and sufficient detailed information. At the same time, the shape and edge of the imaging hole 4 will also be optimized to reduce light scattering and interference, improving the clarity and contrast of the image.
[0057] This design enables the linear product detection light source provided by the embodiment of the present utility model to not only have an efficient lighting function but also be seamlessly docked with the image acquisition device, realizing the automatic detection and analysis of the quality of the diamond wire. This greatly improves the detection efficiency and accuracy, providing strong technical support for the production process of the photovoltaic industry.
[0058] Please refer again to Figure 3 , in this embodiment, the imaging hole 4 is located between the two diffusion films 3.
[0059] It should be noted that designing the imaging hole 4 between the two diffusion films 3 is a clever and practical choice. This layout ensures that the image acquisition module can capture the light evenly diffused by the diffusion film 3 through the imaging hole 4, thereby obtaining clear images of the diamond wire.
[0060] In this embodiment, a more detailed elaboration is made on the structure and function of the lamp panel 2. The lamp panel 2 is mainly composed of a PCB board (printed circuit board) and lamp beads. This design allows the lamp beads to be set on the PCB board in a pluggable manner, providing great convenience for the assembly and maintenance of the light source.
[0061] First of all, the PCB board, as the carrier of the lamp beads, provides stable electrical connection and mechanical support. Through the circuit layout on the PCB board, precise control and power supply of the lamp beads can be achieved.
[0062] Secondly, the lamp beads, as the core components of the light source, are responsible for emitting light. These lamp beads can exist in the form of single-color or multi-color to meet different lighting requirements. Single-color lamp beads can provide stable and uniform lighting effects and are suitable for occasions with high requirements for color consistency; while multi-color lamp beads can achieve flexible adjustment and optimization of the light source by adjusting the light output of different colors.
[0063] In addition, the pluggable design of the lamp beads makes the assembly and maintenance of the light source simpler and more efficient. When the lamp beads need to be replaced or repaired, simply unplug the faulty lamp beads from the PCB board and then insert new lamp beads, without the need to disassemble or replace the entire lamp board. This not only reduces the maintenance cost but also improves the availability and reliability of the equipment.
[0064] In this embodiment, the light transmittance and haze of the diffusion film 3 are specifically set to 65% and 93%. The selection of these two parameters is based on in-depth understanding and precise calculation of the requirements for the quality inspection of the diamond wire.
[0065] A light transmittance of 65% means that the diffusion film allows approximately 65% of the light to pass through. This ratio not only ensures sufficient light intensity to illuminate the diamond wire but also avoids glare or shadows caused by excessive light intensity, thus ensuring the clarity and contrast of the detection image.
[0066] A haze of 93% reflects the light scattering ability of the diffusion film. High haze means that the light will be evenly scattered after passing through the diffusion film, which helps to eliminate light spots and bright points, enabling every detail on the diamond wire to be clearly presented. This is crucial for detecting the wire width of the diamond wire and the number of diamond abrasive grains.
[0067] By combining these two parameters, the diffusion film 3 can achieve uniform scattering of light while maintaining sufficient light intensity, thereby ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the diamond wire quality inspection.
[0068] Although terms such as housing, lamp board, diffusion film, imaging hole, etc. are used more frequently in this application, the possibility of using other terms is not excluded. The use of 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.
[0069] A linear product detection light source provided by the present utility model designs the light source as an arch according to the shape of the diamond wire, then arranges two arched lamp boards spaced apart from each other and with their light-emitting surfaces facing each other inside the housing, and a diffusion film is arranged in front of the light-emitting surface of each lamp board, so that the diamond abrasive on the diamond wire can be evenly irradiated, and the color of the diamond abrasive and the wire body background can be ensured to be distinguishable from each other, so that both the wire width of the diamond wire and the number of diamond abrasive grains can be detected, which is beneficial to ensuring the cutting quality and improving the production efficiency.
[0070] Embodiment 2
[0071] Please refer to Figures 4 - 5 , the embodiment of the present utility model provides a machine vision detection system, which includes an image acquisition module 5 and a linear product detection light source provided in the above-mentioned Embodiment 1.
[0072] It should be noted that this integrated design aims to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the machine vision detection system, especially when performing quality detection on linear products 6 such as diamond wires.
[0073] As the core part of the system, the image acquisition module 5 is responsible for capturing the image information of the target object. In this embodiment, the image acquisition module 5 can be a high-resolution camera that can capture the detailed features of the diamond wire. By cooperating with the linear product detection light source, the image acquisition module 5 can obtain clear and uniform images of the diamond wire, providing a reliable data basis for subsequent quality detection.
[0074] The linear product detection light source, as described in the above-mentioned Embodiment 1, has a unique arched design and a double lamp board configuration. By adjusting the brightness and angle of the light source, it can ensure that the diamond wire presents the best lighting effect in the image acquisition module 5. In addition, the application of the diffusion film 3 makes the light more uniform, helping to eliminate shadows and reflection phenomena, and further improving the image quality.
[0075] This machine vision detection system combines advanced image acquisition technology and optimized light source design, making the quality detection of linear products 6 such as diamond wires more efficient and accurate. The system can automatically identify key parameters such as the wire width of the diamond wire and the number of abrasive grains, and perform precise measurement and data analysis. This can not only reduce errors caused by human factors, but also improve the detection speed and meet the requirements of large-scale production lines.
[0076] In summary, the machine vision detection system provided by the embodiment of the present utility model has the advantages of reasonable structure, powerful function, and simple operation, providing a reliable solution for the quality detection of linear products 6 such as diamond wires. This system can be widely applied in industries such as photovoltaic, electronics, and machinery, and is of great significance for improving product quality and production efficiency.
[0077] Please refer to again Figures 4 - 5 , in this embodiment, the image acquisition module 5 is further refined to include a combination of an area array camera 51 and a telecentric lens 52. This configuration significantly improves the performance and accuracy of the machine vision detection system.
[0078] The area array camera 51, as a key component for image acquisition, features high resolution, high sensitivity, and fast imaging. It can capture the fine features of linear products such as wire saws 6 and complete the transmission and processing of image data at an extremely high speed. This enables the detection system to obtain the quality information of the product in real time and accurately, providing a solid foundation for subsequent analysis and processing.
[0079] The telecentric lens 52 is responsible for focusing light on the photosensitive element of the camera to form a clear image. The design of the telecentric lens can eliminate the reading errors caused by inaccurate focusing or object displacement, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the measurement results. When detecting linear products such as wire saws 6, the telecentric lens 52 can effectively reduce the image distortion caused by light refraction and reflection, further improving the image quality and detection accuracy.
[0080] The image acquisition module 5 combining the area array camera 51 and the telecentric lens 52 not only has the ability to acquire images at high speed and with high sensitivity, but also can ensure the accuracy and stability of the measurement results. This makes the entire machine vision detection system more suitable for the quality detection scenarios of linear products such as wire saws 6, improving the detection efficiency and quality, and providing strong technical support for the production and development of related industries.
[0081] In this embodiment, the object distance and field of view of the telecentric lens 52 are specifically set to 65 mm and 0.92 mm * 0.69 mm. The selection of these two parameters is crucial for the performance of the machine vision detection system.
[0082] The object distance, that is, the distance between the lens and the object being photographed, is 65 mm. This design enables the lens to clearly image linear products such as wire saws at an appropriate distance, ensuring both a sufficient imaging range and avoiding image distortion or blurring caused by being too close or too far away.
[0083] The field of view, that is, the size of the area where the lens can clearly image, is 0.92 mm * 0.69 mm. This size design enables the detection system to accurately capture the key parts and detailed features of the wire saw, providing an accurate data basis for subsequent quality detection. At the same time, an appropriate field of view range also helps to improve the efficiency and stability of the detection system, reducing false detections or missed detections caused by too large or too small a field of view.
[0084] A machine vision inspection system provided by the utility model designs the light source as an arch according to the shape of the diamond wire, and then arranges two arch-shaped lamp boards which are spaced apart from each other and have their light-emitting surfaces facing each other inside the housing, and a diffusion film is arranged in front of the light-emitting surface of each lamp board, so that the diamond sand on the diamond wire can be evenly irradiated, and the color of the diamond sand and the wire body background can be ensured to be distinguished from each other, so that both the wire width of the diamond wire and the number of particles of the diamond sand can be detected, which is beneficial to ensuring the cutting quality and improving the production efficiency.
[0085] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the text and drawings of the specification of the present application, the patent protection scope of the present application cannot be limited thereby. Any technical solutions generated by equivalent structure or equivalent process substitution or modification using the content recorded in the text and drawings of the specification of the present application based on the essential concept of the present application, as well as the direct or indirect implementation of the technical solutions of the above embodiments in other related technical fields, etc., are all included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
