Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of glass detection equipment, and in particular to a camera bracket. Background Art

[0002] During the photovoltaic glass inspection process, inspection cameras are used to capture images of the surface and interior of the photovoltaic cover glass. Microscopic images are used to identify surface or internal defects. As the conveyor transports the photovoltaic cover glass, the inspection camera captures the image, and inspection is achieved through image comparison. The inspection camera's accuracy is affected by the size, shape, and placement angle of the photovoltaic cover glass.

[0003] In order to improve the accuracy of the inspection camera's photography of photovoltaic cover glass, some existing devices (for example, the authorization announcement number is CN 220690822U, and the name is: A high-precision glass inspection device with a line scan camera) are provided with a first adjustment mechanism, which includes an adjustment frame, an adjustment block, and two adjustment plates. The adjustment frame is arranged between the two adjustment plates, and the line scan camera is arranged on the adjustment frame. A groove is formed on the adjustment plate, and the groove is an arc groove or an inclined straight groove. The adjustment blocks are arranged at both ends of the adjustment frame. The adjustment blocks slide in the groove, thereby driving the adjustment frame to move along the extension direction of the groove. When the groove is an arc groove, the adjustment frame moves and drives the line scan camera arranged thereon to move to adjust the position and angle of the line scan camera, thereby achieving adaptation to the photovoltaic cover glass and improving the shooting accuracy. However, since the adjustment angle of the line scan camera is affected by the size of the groove, the adjustment angle of the line scan camera is limited. Utility Model Content

The device can also be positioned in other different ways, rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations, and the spatially relative descriptions used herein are interpreted accordingly.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a camera bracket provided in the first embodiment includes a detection camera 200 disposed on the camera bracket. The camera bracket includes: a support structure 10 and an adjustment structure 20. The support structure 10 includes a first support plate 11 and a second support plate 12, which are disposed correspondingly. The adjustment structure 20 includes an angle adjustment ball 21. The first support plate 11 has a first limiting portion 111, and the second support plate 12 has a second limiting portion 121. The angle adjustment ball 21 is located between the first limiting portion 111 and the second limiting portion 121. The camera bracket can have an angle adjustment state in which the first support plate 11 rotates along the surface of the angle adjustment ball 21, or a support state in which the first support plate 11 remains stationary.

[0029] Applying the technical solution of this embodiment, the inspection camera 200 is mounted on a camera bracket. The camera bracket includes a support structure 10 and an adjustment structure 20. The support structure 10 includes a first support plate 11 and a second support plate 12, which are arranged correspondingly, with the first support plate 11 positioned above the second support plate 12. The adjustment structure 20 includes an angle adjustment ball 21. The first support plate 11 has a first stopper 111, and the second support plate 12 has a second stopper 121. The angle adjustment ball 21 is positioned between the first stopper 111 and the second stopper 121. The camera bracket has an angle adjustment state in which the first support plate 11 rotates along the surface of the angle adjustment ball 21. In this angle adjustment state, the first support plate 11 rotates, driving the inspection camera 200 to achieve multiple angle adjustments. The camera bracket has a supporting state in which the first support plate 11 remains stationary. After the angle adjustment of the inspection camera 200 is completed, the camera bracket is adjusted to the supporting state. In this state, the camera bracket supports the inspection camera 200, and the inspection camera 200 remains stationary, performing inspection on the photovoltaic cover glass. The technical solution of this embodiment effectively solves the problem in the prior art that the detection camera 200 cannot be adjusted at multiple angles to adapt to different photovoltaic cover glasses.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, in the technical solution of embodiment one, the photovoltaic cover glass is transported by conveying rollers 100, the camera bracket is set between adjacent conveying rollers 100, the detection camera 200 is set on the camera bracket and faces the photovoltaic cover glass, and the detection camera 200 takes pictures as the photovoltaic cover glass moves.

[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, in the technical solution of the first embodiment, the first limiting portion 111 and the second limiting portion 121 are arranged opposite to each other. The first limiting portion 111 and the second limiting portion 121 are both cylindrical openings. The angle adjustment ball 21 is partially located within the cylindrical opening. The side wall of the cylindrical opening abuts against the angle adjustment ball 21, thereby achieving the purpose of the first support plate 11 rotating around the angle adjustment ball 21. As the first support plate 11 rotates, the angle of the first support plate 11 relative to the photovoltaic cover glass is adjusted. The detection camera 200 is installed on the first support plate 11, and then the detection camera 200 can achieve synchronous angle adjustment, thereby improving shooting accuracy. The detection camera 200 is adjusted to be perpendicular to the photovoltaic cover glass. At this time, the angle of the detection camera 200 is the optimal angle.

[0032] It should be noted that the first limiting portion 111 and the second limiting portion 121 can also be grooves, and the bottoms of the grooves are both arc-shaped groove bottoms that fit the surface of the angle adjustment ball 21. This arrangement enables the first limiting portion 111 and the second limiting portion 121 to fit tightly with the surface of the angle adjustment ball 21, and the angle adjustment ball 21 is not easy to fall out of the first limiting portion 111 and the second limiting portion 121. At the same time, the first support plate 11 rotates more smoothly around the angle adjustment ball 21.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, in the technical solution of embodiment 1, two groups of first matching holes are provided at the first end of the first support plate 11, and one group of first matching holes is provided at the second end of the first support plate 11. The adjustment structure 20 also includes three adjustment screws 22. The three groups of first matching holes are respectively provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the three adjustment screws 22. According to the principle that three points determine a plane, the provision of three adjustment screws 22 can not only support the first support plate 11, but also adapt to the rotation of the first support plate 11 at multiple angles.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, in the technical solution of Example 1, a set of first limiting portion 111 and second limiting portion 121 are provided. In the horizontal projection of the camera bracket, the distance between the first limiting portion 111 and the first matching hole at the first end of the first support plate 11 is smaller than the distance between the first limiting portion 111 and the first matching hole at the second end of the first support plate 11. This arrangement makes it easier to adjust the angle of the first support plate 11. When adjusting the angle of the first support plate 11, the deflection angle of the first end of the first support plate 11 is smaller, and the resistance from the adjustment spring 23 is smaller, thus saving more effort.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, in the technical solution of the first embodiment, the adjustment structure 20 further includes three adjustment springs 23, which are provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the three adjustment screws 22. The adjustment springs 23 are sleeved on the circumferential outside of the adjustment screws 22. The adjustment springs 23 are located on the side of the first support plate 11 away from the second support plate 12, and the ends of the adjustment springs 23 respectively abut against the first support plate 11 and the heads of the adjustment screws 22. In both the angle adjustment state and the support state, the adjustment springs 23 are in a compressed state. As the angle of the first support plate 11 is adjusted, the degree of compression of the adjustment springs 23 changes adaptively, and the rebound force of the adjustment springs 23 presses the first support plate 11 toward the angle adjustment ball 21.

[0036] like Figure 4As shown, in the technical solution of embodiment one, the adjustment structure 20 also includes three locking nuts 24, and the three locking nuts 24 and the three adjustment screws 22 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. The locking nuts 24 and the second support plate 12 are pressed against each other. After the position of the adjustment screw 22 is determined, the adjustment screw 22 is limited by tightening the locking nuts 24.

[0037] In the technical solution of Example 1, the second support plate 12 has three sets of second mating holes, which correspond one-to-one to the three sets of first mating holes. All three sets of second mating holes are threaded holes, and the adjustment screw 22 is threadedly connected to the second support plate 12. By rotating the adjustment screw 22, the adjustment screw 22 moves, thereby changing the compression of the adjustment spring 23, and adjusting the angle of the first support plate 11.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, in the technical solution of the first embodiment, the first support plate 11 has a plurality of mounting holes 113 , and the mounting holes are used to cooperate with the detection camera 200 to fix the detection camera 200 .

[0039] like Figure 5 As shown, the technical solution of the second embodiment differs from that of the first embodiment in that multiple sets of first limiting portions 111 and second limiting portions 121 are provided. The multiple sets of first limiting portions 111 are arranged in an array along a side of the first support plate 11 facing the second support plate 12, and the multiple sets of second limiting portions 121 are arranged in an array along a side of the second support plate 12 facing the first support plate 11. The multiple sets of first limiting portions 111 and the multiple sets of second limiting portions 121 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. By placing the angle adjustment balls 21 in different first limiting portions 111 and second limiting portions 121, the fulcrum of the rotation of the first support plate 11 can be adjusted, thereby making the rotation of the first support plate 11 more flexible.

[0040] like Figure 5 As shown, in the technical solution of embodiment 2, the first support plate 11 has a plurality of first movable rails 112, and the first movable rails 112 are connected between any two adjacent first limiting portions 111. The second support plate 12 has a plurality of second movable rails, and the second movable rails are connected between any two adjacent second limiting portions 121. The plurality of first movable rails 112 and the plurality of second movable rails are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, and the angle adjustment ball 21 can move along the first movable rails and the second movable rails to the first limiting portion 111 and the second limiting portion 121 at different positions.

[0041] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present application. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0042] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can, for example, be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0043] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Persons skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
