The terms used herein in the specification of this invention are intended only to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0030] like Figure 1-3As shown, in an embodiment of a layout detection mechanism, the layout detection mechanism is used to detect a piece to be tested, the piece to be tested has a first end and a second end relative to each other, and the layout detection mechanism includes a base 3, a color recognition camera 5, a laser camera 6, and a plurality of color marking elements 4. The base 3 is spaced apart from the piece to be tested, and the base 3 can slide along the extension direction of the piece to be tested and at least cross the first end and the second end on its sliding path. Each color marking element 4 is used to mark the end point and bend of the piece to be tested. The color recognition camera 5 is mounted on the base 3 and is used to identify the color marking element 4. The laser camera 6 is mounted on the base 3 and is used to detect the distance from the piece to be tested.

[0031] In this embodiment, a color recognition camera 5 and a laser camera 6 are arranged on a slidable base 3. The color recognition camera 5 can identify the color marking elements 4 on the workpiece to be tested. In this way, during the sliding process, the distance between two adjacent color marking elements 4 can be known. Combined with the distance between the workpiece to be tested measured by the laser camera 6, the workpiece to be tested can be conveniently mapped, which solves the technical problem of the existing layout detection relying on manual mapping, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0032] It can be understood that the color marking element 4 is a material that can be recognized by the color recognition camera 5. The color marking element 4 can be a film-like structural part and can be fixed in the corresponding position by pasting, clamping, etc. The color marking element 4 can also be formed on the workpiece to be tested by spraying. In addition, the setting position of the color marking element 4 can refer to the attached figure, and it needs to be set at both ends and the bend of the workpiece to be tested.

[0033] In an embodiment of the layout detection mechanism, the sliding direction of the base 3 is parallel to the extension direction of at least one section of the workpiece to be tested.

[0034] In this embodiment, the workpiece to be measured may be a plate or rod-type structural member, which has a certain straight section at a bend. In order to facilitate measurement and establish a rectangular coordinate system, this embodiment sets the sliding direction of the base 3 to be parallel to one of the sections of the workpiece to be measured. In this way, the sliding direction can be positioned on the X-axis, which can reduce the conversion relationship and simplify the calculation.

[0035] In an embodiment of the lofting detection mechanism, the lofting detection mechanism further includes a driving member 7 , an output end of the driving member 7 is connected to the base 3 , and is used to drive the base 3 to slide.

[0036] In this embodiment, specifically, the driving member 7 can be a linear track AC servo drive. By providing the driving member 7, the base 3 can be automatically driven to slide, thereby improving the automation level of the overall layout detection mechanism.

[0037] In an embodiment of a layout detection mechanism, the layout detection mechanism further includes a workbench 2, and the workpiece to be tested, the base 3 and the driving member 7 are all placed on the workbench 2. In this embodiment, by providing the workbench 2, the workpiece to be tested, the base 3 and the driving member 7 can be conveniently placed.

[0038] In one embodiment of the layout detection mechanism, the layout detection mechanism further includes a guide member 8, which is placed on the workbench 2 and the base 3 is slidably connected to the guide member 8, and the guide member 8 is used to guide the movement of the base 3. Alternatively, the workbench 2 is provided with a guide portion, and the base 3 is slidably connected to the guide portion, and the guide portion is used to guide the movement of the base 3.

[0039] In this embodiment, specifically, the guide member 8 may be a slide rail, and the guide portion may be a protrusion or a slide groove structure. By providing the guide member 8 or the guide portion, the movement of the base 3 can be better guided.

[0040] In one embodiment of the layout inspection mechanism, the layout inspection mechanism further includes a shielding member 9. Shielding member 9 is mounted on workbench 2 and encloses a first space therewith. Base 3, color recognition camera 5, and laser camera 6 are all housed in the first space. Shielding member 9 is provided with an opening 91, which connects the first space to the outside world and faces the object under test.

[0041] In this embodiment, a shielding member 9 is provided to enclose the workbench 2 to form a first space, in which two cameras can be accommodated, thereby achieving a shielding effect and preventing external interference to the two cameras.

[0042] In an embodiment of a layout detection mechanism, the layout detection mechanism further includes a box 1, a workbench 2 is placed in the box 1, and the box 1 is used to support the workbench 2. In this embodiment, the box 1 can be provided to raise the workbench 2, making it easier for staff to operate.

[0044] In an embodiment of the layout detection mechanism, the base 3 is located on a side of the workbench 2 close to the door element.

[0045] In combination with the previous embodiments, it can be understood that, in order to facilitate the operation of the staff, the side with the door element needs to face outward, that is, when the staff is facing the layout detection mechanism, the door element is on the side close to the staff, and further by arranging the base 3 and the camera on the base 3 on the side close to the door element, it can be convenient for the staff to debug and repair components such as the camera.

[0046] In addition, the door element can be connected to the box body 1 by rotating or pulling.
