Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] Example 1

[0018] Reference Figure 1 、 2 , which is the first embodiment of the utility model, and this embodiment provides a visual detection lens protection structure, including an adjusting cylinder 1, the end of the adjusting cylinder 1 is fixedly connected to the protection adjustment component 8, the protection adjustment component 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the protection fixed cover 7, and the other side of the protection fixed cover 7 is fixedly installed with a camera mounting bracket 2, one end face of the camera mounting bracket 2 is fixedly connected to the visual camera 3, the visual camera 3 is fixedly installed with a camera lens 4, the bottom of the camera lens 4 is provided with a visual light source 5 fixedly connected to the camera mounting bracket 2, the side of the visual light source 5 away from the protection adjustment component 8 is provided with a protection limit block 6, and the protection limit block 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the bottom of the protection fixed cover 7.

[0019] The adjusting cylinder 1 is fixedly installed on the processing equipment, and the protective fixed cover 7 surrounds and protects the visual camera 3, the camera lens 4 and the visual light source 5. The protective fixed cover 7 blocks the flying debris generated by the processing equipment to prevent the camera lens 4 from being damaged during operation. When performing visual inspection, the protective adjustment component 8 works to expose the bottom of the protective fixed cover 7, thereby not blocking the visual inspection field of view of the visual camera 3. When visual inspection is not required, the protective adjustment component 8 works in reverse to close the bottom opening of the protective fixed cover 7. The baffle 85 protects the camera lens 4, so that the protective fixed cover 7 is completely closed, further ensuring the protection effect.

[0020] Example 2

[0021] Reference Figure 1-3 This is the second embodiment of the present utility model, which is based on the previous embodiment. Specifically, the camera mounting bracket 2 is an L-shaped structure. The L-shaped structure is convenient for fixing the protective fixed cover 7 and the fixed visual light source 5.

[0022] Specifically, a circular hole is provided at the bottom of the camera mounting bracket 2 and the circular hole is coaxially arranged with the visual camera 3 , the camera lens 4 and the visual light source 5 . The circular hole provides a detection field of view for the visual camera 3 .

[0023] Specifically, the inner walls on both sides of the protective fixed cover 7 are respectively fixedly mounted with limiting guide rails, and the limiting guide rails are slidably engaged with the protective adjustment component 8 , and the limiting guide rails limit the movement trajectory of the protective adjustment component 8 .

[0024] Specifically, the protective adjustment assembly 8 includes a mounting plate 81, a push cylinder 82, a hinged seat 83, a connecting seat 84, a baffle 85, a fixed block 86, and a slide bar 87. One side of the mounting plate 81 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the protective fixed cover 7. The push cylinder 82 is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 81. One end of the push cylinder 82 is fixedly connected to the adjusting cylinder 1. The driving end of the push cylinder 82 is fixedly connected to the hinged seat 83. The hinged seat 83 is hinged to the connecting seat 84. The connecting seat 84 is fixedly connected to one side of the baffle 85. The other side of the baffle 85 is fixedly connected to the fixed block 86. The fixed block 86 is fixedly connected to the slide bar 87. The two ends of the slide bar 87 are respectively slidably engaged with the limiting guide rails.

[0025] Furthermore, the mounting plate 81 is an inverted L-shaped structure. When performing visual inspection, the protective adjustment assembly 8 operates, the push cylinder 82 retracts, and the push cylinder 82 drives the fixed hinge seat 83 to move. The hinge seat 83 drives the hinged connecting seat 84 to move synchronously. The connecting seat 84 drives the fixed baffle 85 to move. The baffle 85 drives the slide bar 87 to slide within the limiting guide rail, thereby causing the baffle 85 to flip away from the camera lens 4, exposing the bottom of the protective fixed cover 7 and thus not blocking the visual inspection field of the visual camera 3. When visual inspection is not required, the protective adjustment assembly 8 reverses its operation, the push cylinder 82 extends, drives the hinge seat 83 to move, and the hinge seat 83 cooperates with the connecting seat 84 to drive the baffle 85 to move toward the camera lens 4. The baffle 85 finally abuts against the protective limit block 6, thereby closing the bottom opening of the protective fixed cover 7. The baffle 85 protects the camera lens 4, making the protective fixed cover 7 completely closed, further ensuring the protective effect.

[0026] Example 3

[0027] Reference Figure 1-3, which is the third embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment is based on the above two embodiments. When in use, the adjusting cylinder 1 is fixedly installed on the processing equipment, and the protective fixed cover 7 surrounds and protects the visual camera 3, the camera lens 4 and the visual light source 5. The protective fixed cover 7 blocks the splashing debris generated by the processing equipment to prevent the camera lens 4 from being damaged during operation. When performing visual inspection, the protective adjustment component 8 works, the push cylinder 82 retracts, the push cylinder 82 drives the fixed articulated seat 83 to move, the articulated seat 83 drives the articulated connecting seat 84 to move synchronously, the connecting seat 84 drives the fixed baffle 85 to move, and the baffle 85 drives the slide bar 8 7 slides in the limiting guide rail, thereby causing the baffle 85 to flip in the direction away from the camera lens 4, exposing the bottom of the protective fixed cover 7, thereby not blocking the visual detection field of view of the visual camera 3. When visual detection is not needed, the protective adjustment component 8 works in the reverse direction, and the push cylinder 82 extends to drive the articulated seat 83 to move. The articulated seat 83 cooperates with the connecting seat 84 to drive the baffle 85 to move toward the camera lens 4. The baffle 85 finally rests on the protective limit block 6, thereby closing the bottom opening of the protective fixed cover 7. The baffle 85 protects the camera lens 4, so that the protective fixed cover 7 is closed as a whole, further ensuring the protective effect.

[0028] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
