Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electronic product recycling, and more specifically, to a flexible vibration control mechanism based on industrial vision. Background Art

[0002] Memory cards, also known as storage cards, are portable storage devices widely used in electronic devices such as digital cameras, mobile phones, tablets, and game consoles to store photos, videos, music, documents, and other data. Common memory cards include SD cards, CF cards, and MMC cards. As technology evolves, users often upgrade to larger or higher-performance memory cards, or when memory cards become inoperable due to physical damage or logical failures, a large number of used memory cards remain on the market. Proper disposal of these used memory cards not only reduces electronic waste and protects the environment, but also generates significant economic value.

[0003] In order to maximize the economic value, the collected used memory cards usually need to be carefully sorted and recycled. First, they need to be classified according to brand, model, capacity, etc., and then professional equipment is used to detect the status of the memory cards to distinguish between repairable and non-repairable cards. Repairable memory cards are repaired to restore their functions, and non-repairable memory cards are disassembled to recycle valuable materials, such as precious metals such as gold, silver, copper, and plastics.

[0004] Due to the high economic value of used memory cards and the maturing development of machine vision technology, traditional manual sorting is becoming less efficient for the large-scale sorting and recycling of used memory cards. Consequently, industrial vision sorting equipment based on machine vision has emerged on the market. This equipment uses cameras and image processing technology to simulate human vision, enabling object recognition, measurement, detection, and location. Combined with automated equipment such as robotic arms, it can efficiently sort and recycle used memory cards.

[0005] However, the existing waste memory card sorting and recycling equipment still has many shortcomings in actual use. For example, the sources of waste memory cards collected by factories are relatively wide and complex, and dust and other impurities are more likely to appear in the usage scenarios of memory cards (such as chassis that have not been cleaned for a long time). Therefore, dust particles, label paper scraps and other impurities may be attached to the waste memory cards. These impurities may affect the judgment accuracy of the visual camera. In order to avoid damaging the repairable waste memory cards, water washing methods cannot be used to clean the waste memory cards. Therefore, the market needs a more efficient and accurate visual sorting equipment. Utility Model Content

[0027] The present application is described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is necessary to point out that the following specific implementation methods are only used to further illustrate the present application and cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present application. Technicians in this field can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present application based on the above application content.

[0028] Refer to the instruction manual Figures 1 to 9 A flexible vibration control mechanism based on industrial vision includes: a frame platform 1, a feeding mechanism 2 is provided on the frame platform 1, the feeding mechanism 2 includes a feeding box 21, a flexible vibration component 22 is provided on the front side of the feeding box 21, the flexible vibration component 22 includes a vibration base 221, a containing box 222 is provided on the vibration base 221, and the feeding box 21 is adapted to the containing box 222;

[0029] The rack platform 1 is provided with a visual recognition component 4, which includes a bracket 2 41, and a recognition camera 48 is provided on the bracket 2 41. The recognition camera 48 is located above the holding box 222; the rack platform 1 is provided with an adsorption component 5, which includes a mechanical arm 51, and an adsorption disk 53 is provided on the mechanical arm 51. The adsorption disk 53 is adapted to the workpiece; the feeding mechanism 2 also includes a screening component 23, and the screening component 23 includes a sieve plate 231. The bottom of the holding box 222 is open, and the sieve plate 23 1 is arranged at the bottom opening position of the containing box 222, and the bottom of the containing box 222 is connected to a material guide trough 232, the output end of the material guide trough 232 extends to the inner lower end of the material supply box 21, and a separation box 235 is detachably provided below the output end of the material guide trough 232. The bottom wall of the separation box 235 is provided with a wave-shaped sedimentation groove 236, and the bottom of the output end of the material guide trough 232 is provided with a deflector 238 with a backward opening, and the deflector 238 is located between the material guide trough 232 and the separation box 235.

[0030] It should be noted that due to mechanical damage, some old memory cards may have loose components such as the "gold fingers" on them. When these loose "gold fingers" are subjected to vibration, they may fall off the memory card. The raw materials of these "gold fingers" usually contain precious metals such as gold and silver, and have high recycling value. Therefore, while sorting out the repairable memory cards, it is also necessary to avoid wasting the waste materials with high recycling value that fall off the memory cards with damaged mechanical structures.

[0031] Furthermore, the information contained on the two sides of the memory card is different. The front side usually contains brand identification, model information, capacity identification, speed level, etc.; while the back side usually contains product information, compliance mark, instructions for use and production date, etc. The recognition camera 48 generally needs to identify the information on the front side of the memory card for sorting.

[0032] In this embodiment, the implementation scenario is specifically as follows: the collected waste memory cards are put into the hopper 212, and then the flexible vibration component 22, the lighting lamp 33 and the identification camera 48 are started. The memory cards are transported to the holding box 222 through the guide plate 213, and are turned over by intermittent vibration. The identification camera 48 will identify the memory cards facing up, and according to the information obtained, the adsorption component will sort the memory cards of different specifications and place them on the corresponding storage plates. When the remaining memory cards in the holding box 222 are all facing up, they are vibrated again to turn them over, and the identification is repeated. No vibration is performed during the identification and sorting. During the vibration, dust particles, paper scraps and other impurities as well as "gold fingers" are removed. They fall from the sieve plate 231 into the guide trough 232 and finally move to the separation box 235. Since the density of the "gold fingers" and other debris containing precious metals is relatively high, when they are mixed with dust, paper scraps and other impurities and fall from the output end of the guide trough 232 to the separation box 235, the air flow blown out by the guide cover will separate these impurity mixtures. The "gold fingers" with relatively large density fall to the front position of the separation box 235, and the impurities such as dust and paper scraps with relatively low density will fall to the back position of the separation box 235, and with the vibration of the separation box 235, they will be gradually settled into different wavy sedimentation troughs 236, thereby completing the purification and collection of high-value debris such as the "gold fingers".

[0033] Furthermore, the recognition camera 48 is a mature technology well known to people in the industry and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0034] Refer to the instruction manual Figures 3 to 5 In this embodiment, the feeding box 21 includes a shell 211, the top of the shell 211 is open, and a hopper 212 is provided on the inner wall of the shell 211, and the hopper 212 is adapted to the top opening. The front side of the shell 211 is open, and a material guide plate 213 is provided at the front opening position, and the material guide plate 213 is adapted to the hopper 212, and the discharge end of the material guide plate 213 is adapted to the containing box 222, and a material blocking plate 214 is slidably provided on the front side of the shell 211.

[0035] It should be noted that, by providing the baffle plate 214 , the loading of materials can be controlled according to the remaining amount of memory cards in the containing box 222 , thereby ensuring a continuous sorting rhythm.

[0036] Refer to the instruction manual Figures 3 to 5In this embodiment, a hanging ring 233 is provided at the bottom of the output end of the guide trough 232, and a hook 234 is provided at the front end of the separation box 235.

[0037] It should be noted that the suction force of the air pump 239 will be adjusted according to actual conditions. The material guide trough 232 is detachably connected to the containing box 222. By movably connecting the separation box 235 to the material guide trough 232, the vibration of the material guide trough 232 can be transmitted to the separation box 235, and in conjunction with the spring 237, the separation box has a good vibration effect.
