[0026] See also Figures 1 to 7 The present invention provides a fan bearing detection device for detecting the upper and lower bearings 101 in a fan 100. The bearings 101 are mounted on the inner hole 103 of the shaft sleeve 102 in the fan 100. The inner hole 103 completely penetrates the shaft sleeve 102 in the vertical direction. During detection, the fan bearing detection device detects the flatness of the two bearings 101, the parallelism between the two bearings 101, the depth in the shaft sleeve 102, and the depth difference.
[0027] The fan bearing detection equipment includes a frame 10, a positioning frame 20 and an angle adjustment mechanism 40 installed on the frame 10, and two detection mechanisms 30 installed on the positioning frame 20. The two detection mechanisms 30 are arranged opposite to each other in the vertical direction, and the angle adjustment mechanism 40 is arranged between the two detection mechanisms 30.
[0028] The frame 10 is provided with a first inner space 12 and a second inner space (not shown) at the upper and lower sides. A support plate 11 is provided between the first and second inner spaces. The angle adjustment mechanism 40 is disposed on the support plate 11. Two detection mechanisms 30 are disposed in the first and second inner spaces, respectively. Furthermore, the frame 10 is provided with an entrance 13 communicating with the first inner space 12. The fan bearing detection device of the present invention also includes a safety light barrier 13. During assembly, the safety light barrier 13 is mounted on the entrance 13 of the frame 10. The safety light barrier 13 can quickly detect objects entering the danger zone and provide feedback to an external system controller, protecting personnel and equipment.
[0029] Each of the detection mechanisms 30 includes a positioning device 31 and a sensor 32 installed on the positioning device 31. The sensor 32 is a distance sensor. The positioning device 31 is used to adjust the position of the sensor 32 in the X-axis and Z-axis directions respectively. In this embodiment, there are two sensors 32 on each of the detection mechanisms 30. The positioning device 31 can adjust the two sensors 32 separately, so that the detection mechanism 30 can detect fan 100 bearings 101 with different height differences and diameters.
[0030] The angle adjustment mechanism 40 includes a base 41, a driving motor 42 mounted on the base 41 and a fixed base 44, a driving gear 43 connected to the driving motor 42, an adjustment bearing 45 with an inner ring mounted on the fixed base 44, a driven gear 46 mounted on the outer ring of the adjustment bearing 45 and meshing with the driving gear 43, a rotating support plate 47 mounted on the driven gear 46, two limit blocks 48 mounted on the rotating support plate 47, and a positioning member 49 mounted in the middle of the fixed base 44. The driving motor 42 drives the driving gear 43 to rotate. During the rotation of the driving gear 43, the driven gear 46 meshing with it is driven to rotate synchronously around the central axis of the adjustment bearing 45. During the rotation of the driven gear 46, the rotating support plate 47 mounted on the driven gear 46 is driven to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the fan 100 to be tested, which is mounted between the two limit blocks 48, to rotate synchronously.
[0031] In this embodiment, the rotating support plate 47 is provided with several rows of fixing holes 471, the limiting block 48 is provided with an elongated adjustment groove 481, and the angle adjustment mechanism 40 also includes several fixing parts. During assembly, the limiting block 48 is provided on the upper end surface of the rotating support plate 47, and the fixing part passes through the adjustment groove 481 of the limiting block 48 and is fixed to the fixing hole 471. By selecting the fixing part to be fixed to different fixing holes 471 and providing the elongated adjustment groove 481 on the limiting block 48, the distance between the two limiting blocks 48 can be adjusted according to the size of the fan 100.
[0032] In addition, to ensure that the detection mechanism 30 located below the angle adjustment mechanism 40 can detect the bearing 101 of the fan 100, the base 41, the fixing seat 44 and the positioning member 49 are all provided with avoidance openings (411, 441, 491). The avoidance opening 411 on the base 41, the avoidance opening 441 on the fixing seat 44 and the avoidance opening 491 on the positioning member 49 are aligned in the Z-axis direction. After the fan 100 is installed on the two limit blocks 48 and the positioning member 49, the detection mechanism 30 located below the angle adjustment mechanism 40 can pass through the avoidance openings (411, 441, 491) to detect the outer ring of the bearing 101 and the sleeve 102 on the fan 100.
[0033] During the inspection, the fan 100 to be inspected is first installed between the two limit blocks 48, and the positioning member 49 extends into the shaft sleeve 102 of the fan 100 and passes through the bearing 101. The external system controller controls the adjustment device 31 of the detection mechanism 30 to adjust the position of the sensor 32 in the X-axis and Z-axis directions according to the size parameters of the fan 100 input by the staff, so that the two sensors 32 of the detection mechanism 30 located above the angle adjustment mechanism 40 are respectively aligned with the outer ring of the bearing 101 and the edge of the shaft sleeve 102 located above, and the two sensors 32 of the detection mechanism 30 located below the angle adjustment mechanism 40 are respectively aligned with the outer ring of the bearing 101 and the edge of the shaft sleeve 102 located above. 2 are aligned with the outer ring of bearing 101 and the edge of sleeve 102, respectively. Of the two sensors 32 in detection mechanism 30, the sensor 32 aligned with the edge of sleeve 102 measures the distance between the sleeve 102 edge and sensor 32, while the sensor 32 aligned with the outer ring of bearing 101 measures the distance between the outer ring of bearing 101 and sensor 32. Furthermore, the angle adjustment mechanism 40 drives the fan 100 to adjust its angle. Sensor 32 measures the distance between the outer ring of bearing 101 and sensor 32 at different locations on the circumference, establishes the coordinates of bearing 101, and thereby determines the flatness of bearing 101. The system controller calculates the parallelism between the two bearings 101 based on the flatness. Furthermore, based on the data obtained by sensor 32 aligned with the sleeve 102 edge and the data obtained by sensor 32 aligned with the outer ring of bearing 101, it calculates the depth of bearing 101 within sleeve 102 and the depth difference between the two bearings 101.
[0034] Specifically, fan 100 is initially placed in angle adjustment mechanism 40 at the 0° position. Angle adjustment mechanism 40 drives fan 100 to adjust its angle, with fan 100 rotating to positions of 90°, 180°, and 270°, respectively. Sensor 32 obtains the distance between fan 100 and the outer ring of bearing 101 at these positions, thereby establishing a coordinate system for bearing 101 and calculating the flatness of bearing 101. When calculating the depth of bearing 101 within sleeve 102, the minimum distance between sensor 32 and the outer ring of bearing 101 at these positions is used as a reference.
[0035] The beneficial effect of the present invention is that: the present invention provides two detection mechanisms 30 and an angle adjustment mechanism 40 provided between the two detection mechanisms 30, the angle adjustment mechanism 40 adjusts the angle of the fan 100, and the two detection mechanisms 30 simultaneously detect the flatness of the two bearings 101 on the fan 100, thereby effectively improving the detection efficiency, improving the detection accuracy, and reducing the defective rate of the product.
[0036] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0037] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementations of the present invention. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present utility model patent shall be determined by the appended claims.
