[0047] This embodiment provides a quality inspection device for an electronic cigarette, which is used to inspect the inner rubber ring of a workpiece aperture. The device is designed to automatically detect whether the silicone ring is present inside the shell 200 and improve quality inspection efficiency through an automated process. This is because the design of the rubber ring improves the sealing of the electronic cigarette, thereby preventing oil leakage. The silicone ring is installed in a specific position inside the shell 200, which can form a solid sealing interface between the components of the shell 200. This sealing interface can not only resist the leakage of electronic cigarette liquid, but also effectively cope with the expansion or contraction of the electronic cigarette during heating and pressure changes, thereby preventing liquid leakage.

The guide column 300 is cylindrical and its diameter is designed to be larger than the outer diameter of the silicone ring and smaller than the inner diameter of the shell 200. During the detection process, the longitudinal displacement cylinder 500 pushes the guide column 300 down and inserts it into the shell 200. If there is a silicone ring inside the shell 200, the silicone ring will be squeezed by the guide column 300 and attached to the guide column 300; if there is no silicone ring, the shell 200 cannot be attached, thereby realizing the detection of whether the rubber ring is present. Subsequently, the longitudinal displacement cylinder 500 rises to extract the guide post 300 attached to the shell 200, and the transverse displacement cylinder 400 moves the guide post 300 to the unloading position. At this time, the unloading cylinder 700 drives the unloading plate 710 to push the shell 200 off the guide post 300, completing the unloading process. The entire process is automatically cycled, reducing manual operation and being suitable for mass production. The device also includes a clamping assembly for removing unqualified shells 200. The clamping assembly, through the coordinated action of the clamping claw cylinder 810, the translation cylinder 820 and the material removal cylinder 830, clamps and removes the shell 200 lacking the silicone ring from the work station, ensuring that only qualified shells 200 enter the subsequent process. This quality inspection device not only improves quality inspection efficiency and reduces manpower dependence through the automated inspection process, but also reduces equipment cost and space occupancy. In addition, the device of this embodiment is particularly suitable for the silicone ring inspection needs in the production of small devices such as electronic cigarettes, simplifies the inspection process, and is suitable for mass production, such as medical devices and sealing equipment.
