The current process usually involves manually inserting the plug into the corresponding HDMI interface. The insertion depth and force are uncontrollable, the stability is poor, and a lot of manpower is required. In addition, the conventional HDMI plug-in and unplug process requires manual insertion, which inevitably has a relatively large impact on the insertion efficiency and detection efficiency. In addition, the adaptation of conventional HDMI must be processed using automated robotic arms.

[0003] Therefore, in view of this, the existing structure and defects are studied and improved, and a full-automatic HDMI plug-in and unplug device is provided to achieve a more practical purpose. Utility Model Content

[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. 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.

[0029] See also Figure 1 - Figure 5 The utility model provides a technical solution: including a mechanical arm 1 for replacing manual plugging and unplugging of HDMI, a TV placement mechanism 2 for lifting the TV, and a plug-in port positioning mechanism 3 for adaptive positioning;

[0030] The plug port positioning mechanism 3 includes an HDMI plug 31 for detection, the back of which is connected to an assembly rod 32, and the back of which is provided with a camera bracket 33;

[0031] A 3D positioning module 34 is installed on the side of the camera bracket 33 for taking photos and positioning the connector during the plugging and unplugging stage. A wiring slot 35 is provided on the surface of the 3D positioning module 34.

[0032] In this embodiment, a 3D camera 331 is installed in the middle of the top of the camera bracket 33, and a scanning plate 332 for emitting scans and locating the HDMI plug-in area is installed on the side wall of the 3D camera 331.

[0033] In this embodiment, the light source emitting end of the scanning board 332 is used as feedback to locate the correct insertion direction of the HDMI on the back of the display.

[0034] The scanning board 332 and the light source transmitting end are used to detect the correct insertion direction of the TV HDMI.

[0035] In this embodiment: the robot arm 1 includes a large swing arm 11, a middle swing arm 12 and a small swing arm 13 to facilitate three-dimensional flexible steering;

[0036] The action end of the small swing arm 13 is connected to the top edge of the camera bracket 33 for transmission, and the middle swing arm 12 is hinged to the small swing arm 13.

[0037] The combination of the large swing arm 11, the middle swing arm 12 and the small swing arm 13 enables the robot arm 1 to achieve flexible multi-axis movement, and then the plug and unplug positioning mechanism 3 can be adjusted more accurately to drive the plug and the TV socket to be plugged and unplugged.

[0038] In this embodiment, the top end of the large swing arm 11 and one end of the middle swing arm 12 are arranged for transmission.

[0039] The purpose is to improve the flexibility of the robot arm 1.

[0040] In this embodiment, an in-situ steering seat 14 is installed at the bottom of the large swing arm 11 , and the bottom end of the in-situ steering seat 14 is fixed to the TV placement mechanism 2 .

[0041] The adopted in-situ turning seat 14 and television placement mechanism 2 change the turning direction.

[0042] In this embodiment: the TV placement mechanism 2 includes a control box 21 that serves as a support for the in-situ turning seat 14, and a belt assembly line 22 for transporting the TV is installed on the side wall of the control box 21. The surface of the belt assembly line 22 is provided with a bracket 23 for transferring the TV, and an LCD TV 24 is placed on the top of the bracket 23. An HDMI input panel 25 is provided on the back side of the LCD TV 24, and the side plug-in terminals of the HDMI input panel 25 are linked.

[0043] The HDMI input panel 25 is used as a test for the LCD screen to feed back images to the TV.

[0044] In this embodiment, a CCD camera 26 is provided on the outer surface of the LCD TV 24 for detecting the LCD during the imaging stage.

[0045] As a reference, a specific video recording is recorded into the LCD TV 24.

[0046] When in use, the user first needs to transfer the LCD screen to be inspected, and then the surface of the bracket 23 is used to transfer the LCD TV 24 to the designated position. At this time, the user needs to use the bracket 23 and the belt assembly line 22 to move the TV to the vicinity of the robot arm 1. When inspection is required, the position of the HDMI plug 31 is changed according to the flexible coordination of the large swing arm 11, the middle swing arm 12 and the small swing arm 13.

[0047] The laser beam emitted by the scanning plate 332 scans the position of the HDMI input panel 25 at the back of the TV to locate the position. After the scanning is completed, the HDMI plug 31 can accurately determine the position of the socket inserted into the HDMI input panel 25.

[0048] Then, as long as the large swing arm 11, the middle swing arm 12 and the small swing arm 13 are flexibly arranged and perfected, they can be inserted. The 3D camera 331 can accurately determine whether the HDMI plug 31 corresponds to the HDMI input panel 25. After the correspondence, it can be obtained in time whether the LCD TV 24 has image output, so as to judge whether the TV is intact. The basis for the judgment is to use the CCD camera 26 to record the image results of the display, and automatically interactively convert the tests of different HDMI interfaces to see whether they are normal.

[0049] The contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to professional and technical personnel in this field. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, it is still possible for those skilled in the art to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or to replace some of the technical features therein with equivalents. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
