[0023] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and those skilled in the art may conceive of other obvious variations.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1-4As shown, a battery cell appearance inspection device based on visual recognition includes a frame 1, a conveyor 101 is fixedly installed on the left side of the upper end of the frame 1, a mounting frame 102 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the conveyor 101, a high-definition camera 103 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the top of the mounting frame 102, and a detection mechanism 2 is installed on the outer side of the conveyor 101. The detection mechanism 2 includes two groups of fixed rods 201, and the two groups of fixed rods 201 are respectively fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the conveyor 101. A cross plate 205 is slidably connected between the two groups of fixed rods 201, and two groups of lifting rods 206 are slidably connected inside the cross plate 205. The lower end of the lifting rod 206 is fixedly connected to the detection plate 207, and a discharging mechanism 3 is installed on the right side of the upper end of the frame 1. The discharging mechanism 3 includes a discharging frame 301 and a material plate 302, and the material plate 302 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the right end of the discharging frame 301.

[0026] In this solution, the conveyor 101 is electrically connected to an external power supply, and the battery cells are placed on the upper end of the conveyor 101 through an external feeding mechanism, so that they can be inspected by the inspection mechanism 2. The horizontal plate 205 can drive the lifting rod 206 and the inspection plate 207 to move up and down, and adjust according to the standard height of the battery cells to be inspected, so that the distance between the inspection plate 207 and the conveyor 101 is consistent with the elevation of the battery cells to be inspected;

[0027] Furthermore, the lower surface of the inspection plate 207 is a flat plane. If the surface of the battery cell to be inspected is deformed or wrinkled, the height will be inconsistent. If the height of the battery cell is higher than the lower surface of the inspection plate 207, the inspection plate 207 can block the defective battery cell and prevent the battery cell from passing under the inspection plate 207, and stay on the left side of the inspection plate 207. If the flatness of the battery cell is consistent and the height meets the standard, it can pass under the inspection plate 207 smoothly.

[0028] Furthermore, the high-definition camera 103 can monitor the passing of the battery cells in real time, thereby facilitating the backstage staff to observe the inspection status of the battery cells. When defective products are found, the lifting rod 206 can be controlled to move upward so that the battery cells on the left side of the inspection plate 207 can pass through the inspection plate 207.

[0029] Furthermore, the upper surface of the discharge rack 301 is tilted, and the upper surface of the material plate 302 is tilted at the same angle as the upper surface of the discharge rack 301, which facilitates the sliding of the battery cells. When the defective products slide to the upper end of the material plate 302, the backstage staff can control the material plate 302 to rotate downward, so that the sliding direction of the battery cells is opposite to the conveying direction of the conveyor 101, so that good products and defective products can be placed separately.

[0030] Example 2

[0031] Please refer to Figure 3As shown, the two ends of the horizontal plate 205 are respectively fixedly connected with sliders 203, and the sliders 203 are slidably connected to the inside of the fixed rod 201. One group of the fixed rods 201 are rotatably connected to the screw 202 through bearings, and one group of the sliders 203 are threadedly connected to the screw 202. An adjusting motor 204 is fixedly installed on the top of one group of the fixed rods 201, and the output end of the adjusting motor 204 is fixedly connected to the screw 202 through a coupling.

[0032] A first electric push rod 209 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the horizontal plate 205 , and an output end of the first electric push rod 209 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 208 , and both ends of the connecting rod 208 are fixedly connected to the top ends of the two sets of lifting rods 206 .

[0033] In this solution, the adjustment motor 204 is electrically connected to an external power supply. The adjustment motor 204 can drive the screw 202 to rotate, and then drive the horizontal plate 205 to move up and down through the slider 203, thereby adjusting the height of the detection plate 207 according to the elevation of the battery cell;

[0034] Furthermore, the first electric push rod 209 is electrically connected to the external power supply. The first electric push rod 209 can push the connecting rod 208 to move the lifting rod 206 upward, thereby driving the detection plate 207 to move upward, so as to facilitate the passage of defective products.

[0035] Example 3

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the discharging mechanism 3 also includes a second electric push rod 303, and the inner side of the right end of the frame 1 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 106. The second electric push rod 303 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 106, and the output end of the second electric push rod 303 is hinged to the lower end of the material plate 302.

[0037] In this plan,

[0038] A good product box 105 is fixedly connected to the right end of the frame 1 , and a reject product box 104 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the right end of the frame 1 .

[0039] A support plate 107 is provided below the conveyor belt of the conveyor 101 , and the support plate 107 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the fixed frame of the conveyor 101 .

[0040] In this solution, the second electric push rod 303 is electrically connected to the external power supply. The second electric push rod 303 can drive the material plate 302 to rotate. When good products pass the upper end of the material plate 302, they can slide along the inclined surface of the material plate 302 to the inside of the good product box 105 for collection. When defective products pass the upper end of the material plate 302, the backstage operator can control the output end of the second electric push rod 303 to retract, thereby driving the material plate 302 to rotate downward, so that the left end of the material plate 302 rotates to the upper end of the reject box 104, thereby causing the defective products to slide into the reject box 104.

[0041] Furthermore, the support plate 107 can support the lower end of the conveyor belt of the conveyor 101 so that the conveyor belt can support the battery cells.

[0042] The working principle and use process of the present invention are as follows: First, the regulating motor 204 is started and the screw 202 is driven to rotate, and then the horizontal plate 205 is driven to move up and down by the slider 203, so as to adjust the height of the detection plate 207 according to the elevation of the battery cell. After that, the battery cell is placed on the upper end of the conveyor 101 through the external feeding mechanism, so as to be detected by the detection mechanism 2. The detection plate 207 can block the defective battery cell and prevent the battery cell from passing under the detection plate 207. The background staff can monitor the passing of the battery cell in real time through the high-definition camera 103. When a defective battery cell is detected, the detection plate 207 can be used to detect the defective battery cell. When rejecting defective products, the first electric push rod 209 is controlled to push the connecting rod 208 so that the lifting rod 206 moves upward, thereby driving the inspection plate 207 to move upward, so that defective products can pass through. At the same time, when the defective products pass the upper end of the material plate 302, the background operator can control the second electric push rod 303 to drive the material plate 302 to rotate downward, so that the left end of the material plate 302 rotates to the upper end of the waste box 104, so that the defective products slide into the inside of the waste box 104, and the good battery cells can directly pass under the inspection plate 207 and slide down the inclined surface of the material plate 302 to the inside of the good box 105 for collection.
