[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, descriptions of known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessary confusion regarding the concepts of the present invention.
[0020] Example 1: A workpiece detection device for CNC machine tool processing, such as Figure 1-3As shown, it includes a base 1, and a transmission member 2 is symmetrically arranged on the front and back of the upper part of the base. The transmission member 2 is arranged horizontally, and its left part passes through a section from the base 1, which is used to be set as a loading area. The transmission member 2 is provided with a mounting block, and a material transfer slide 3 is stably installed between the mounting blocks. The material transfer slide 3 will move horizontally left and right under the drive of the transmission member 2. A clamp that can automatically clamp the workpiece should be provided on the material transfer slide 3, and the workpiece can be clamped on the material transfer slide 3. A control module 21 is provided on the front side of the base 1. The control module 21 can control the power components of all detection instruments in the detection device, monitor the operating status of the detection equipment in real time, and ensure stable and efficient operation of the equipment. At the same time, in the control module The block 21 is equipped with various standard data required for comparison when inspecting the workpiece. A lifter 4 is vertically installed on the left side of the upper part of the base 1. The lifter 4 is equipped with a slide rod driven by the lifter 4 for positioning and lifting. A three-dimensional detector 42 is provided on the slide rod. The installation height of the three-dimensional detector 42 can be adjusted by the lifter 4. After installation, the detection probe of the three-dimensional detector 42 faces downward. When the material transfer slide 3 moves to the right, it passes under the three-dimensional detector 42. The three-dimensional detector 42 projects a specific light pattern onto the surface of the workpiece, uses a camera to capture the deformed light pattern, calculates the three-dimensional information of the object surface, and compares the collected three-dimensional information with the pre-stored data in the control module 21. The data is compared to detect the surface details of the workpiece to avoid processing defects. When the three-dimensional detector 42 detects, the light projection probes at multiple angles are set. When scanning the workpiece, the data obtained is less affected by the surface shape of the workpiece; a mechanical arm 5 is provided on the right side of the upper part of the base 1, and a coordinate measuring instrument 51 is provided at the end of the mechanical arm 5. When the mechanical arm 5 is detecting, based on the control system, the movement amount of each joint of the mechanical arm 5 is calculated, so that the accurate movement and precise control of the end position of the mechanical arm 5 are achieved through the actuator, and the coordinate measuring instrument 51 is driven to the specified position. There is a probe on the coordinate measuring instrument 51 that contacts the workpiece; Specifically, the three-dimensional detector 42 and the coordinate measuring instrument 51 are provided. The measuring instruments 51 are all installed stably. Before use, necessary calibration is performed, and corresponding measurement parameters are set in the control module 21 according to the requirements of the part to be tested. During testing, the workpiece is moved to the testing station through the material transfer slide 3, and the three-dimensional detector 42 is used to perform three-dimensional scanning and testing on the part to be tested to obtain the three-dimensional shape and size information of the part. When the data is in doubt, the test results of the three-dimensional detector 42 are used as a reference, and the coordinate measuring machine 51 is used to accurately measure the key coordinate points of the part. The measurement results of the three-dimensional detector 42 and the coordinate measuring machine 51 are exported, and data analysis and processing are performed, and the two measurement results are compared to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the test.

The structure of the lifter 2 43 is consistent with that of the lifter 41, and an integrated detector 44 is installed on its slide rod. The integrated detector 44 is composed of multiple types of detection instruments, such as visual detection instruments, infrared detection instruments, etc., which detect the workpiece from multiple aspects. When the material transfer slide 3 moves to the left with the transmission member 2, the table of the material transfer slide 3 will pass under the integrated detector 44. The purpose of setting up the integrated detection instrument 44 is not only to perform workpiece detection in multiple dimensions and ensure the effectiveness of the detection, but also to perform pre-detection of the workpiece through the integrated detector 41. When the integrated detector 41 that does not contact the workpiece detects that there is a defect in the workpiece, it sends a signal to the control module 21, and the control does not need to be carried out for subsequent detection. The material transfer slide 3 directly moves the object to the right to the right limit position of the transmission member 2 for unloading, thereby avoiding invalid detection.
[0022] In a preferred embodiment: Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a fixed platform 6 is fixedly provided on the upper left side of the base 1, and the fixed platform 6 is tightly connected to the front left side of the transmission member 2 on the front side to form a stable supporting structure. The fixed platform 6 is composed of a fixed frame and a driving member, wherein the driving member includes a transmission screw and a driving motor, which provides a precise power source for the movement of the movable platform 7. The movable platform 7 is installed on the fixed platform 6. The two have the same structure and are arranged vertically and crosswise. This design enables the movable platform 7 to be screwed on the transmission screw of the fixed platform 6 and realize left and right movement. At the same time, a positioning platform 71 is also screwed on the transmission screw on the movable platform 7, which can realize precise positioning movement in the left and right and front and back directions under the joint drive of the movable platform 7 and the fixed platform 6; specifically, the role of setting the positioning platform 71 is to control the mechanical The hand first places the object on the positioning table 71, adjusts the coordinate position of the workpiece on the positioning table, and then positions the workpiece with the adjusted coordinates on the material transfer slide 3. This not only improves the accuracy of positioning, but also provides great convenience for the robot to pre-position the material, so that the robot can place the workpiece more quickly and accurately, without the need for additional position adjustment after placing the workpiece, thereby improving production efficiency; wherein, the right part of the fixed table 6 is provided with no less than two blowpipes 8, the lower parts of these blowpipes 8 are connected to air inlet joints for connection to an external air source, and the nozzles of the blowpipes 8 face one side of the upper surface of the positioning table 71. Such a design allows gas to be blown to the upper surface of the positioning table 71 through the blowpipes 8 when needed, so as to remove dust, debris and other impurities on the surface of the positioning table 71 and the workpiece placed on the positioning table 71 to keep it clean;
[0023] In a preferred embodiment: Figure 1As shown, the right part of the base 1 is also provided with a rodless cylinder 9, and a feeding cylinder 10 is fixed on the slider of the rodless cylinder 9. The movable rod of the feeding cylinder 10 is vertically downward. Driven by the rodless cylinder 9, the feeding cylinder 10 will translate in the front and rear directions. One end of the movable rod of the feeding cylinder 10 is fixed with a mounting seat 11, and a feeding fixture corresponding to the workpiece to be detected is installed on the mounting seat 11. Driven by the movable rod of the feeding cylinder 10, the mounting seat 11 will move up and down.

A feeding table 12 for placing the workpiece is symmetrically provided on the right side of the base 1. The feeding table 12 is located below the rodless cylinder 9 and is in a relative position on the same line with the mounting seat 11.
[0024] Initially, the mounting seat 11 installed on the material-picking cylinder 10 will move to the center position between the two transmission parts 2 under the drive of the rodless cylinder 9. The two unloading tables 12 are used to place good parts and defective parts respectively. After the clamp on the mounting seat 11 picks up the workpiece on the transfer slide 3, the rodless cylinder 9 will drive the picked workpiece to move to the top of the unloading table where the defective parts are placed according to the detection results for unloading. Through the automatic unloading components and the unloading table 12 for placing the workpiece, there is no need for manual picking and placing of the workpiece, which improves the detection efficiency. At the same time, the workpieces after detection are quickly classified and placed, and then the defective parts are eliminated. There is no need for manual intervention for screening, thereby improving the effectiveness and consistency of detection.
