[0002] As a portable timekeeping instrument, the wristwatch in modern society not only serves the basic function of displaying time but has also gradually evolved into a fashion accessory and a symbol of personal taste. With the advancement of technology and changes in consumer demand, modern wristwatches have developed into a wide variety of styles, from traditional mechanical watches to advanced smartwatches, covering a wide range of uses from leisure to professional fields.

[0003] Watch crystals are typically made of materials such as sapphire crystal, mineral glass, or synthetic resin, offering high transparency, good scratch resistance, and pressure resistance. Even after rigorous inspection to ensure a scratch-free surface, minor scratches or other damage may still occur during assembly due to improper handling or mechanical forces. These damages may not have been present before assembly; therefore, a thorough inspection of the assembled watch crystal is essential.

[0004] Currently, the industry mainly relies on manual visual inspection or the use of microscopes to check for scratches on the watch crystal surface. However, this method depends on the operator's experience and eyesight, which is prone to subjective judgment errors and low work efficiency. Furthermore, when facing large-scale production, it is difficult to guarantee that every watch meets high-quality standards. In addition, traditional manual inspection methods are difficult to digitize and manage, which is not conducive to subsequent quality tracking and improvement.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new technical solution to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0030] See also Figure 1-5 A watch case crystal inspection device includes a base 1, a support group 2 disposed on the base 1, a microscope mechanism 3 disposed on the support group 2, and a placement base post 4 disposed on the base 1 corresponding to the microscope mechanism 3.

[0031] The support assembly 2 includes a column 21 disposed on one side of the upper end of the base 1, a movable plate 22 movably disposed on the column 21, a horizontal column 23 connected to one side of the movable plate 22, a movable block 24 movably disposed on the horizontal column 23, a mounting block 25 disposed on one side of the movable block 24, a microscope mechanism 3 mounted on the mounting block 25, and a display device externally connected to the microscope mechanism 3.

[0032] The microscope mechanism 3 is installed from top to bottom on the mounting block 25. A light shield 5 is provided at the lower end of the microscope mechanism 3. An illumination source 51 is provided inside the light shield 5, and the illumination source 51 is directed towards the placement base column 4. The illumination source 51 is connected to an external power source.

[0033] Specifically, the assembled watch case is placed on the base post 4, and the power supply to the microscope mechanism 3 and the illumination lamp 51 is turned on. At this time, the illumination lamp 51 illuminates the watch case, the microscope mechanism 3 magnifies the details of the watch case and transmits the image to the display device. The staff can observe whether there are scratches or other damages on the surface of the watch case through the display device. During the inspection of the watch case, the support group 2 keeps the microscope mechanism 3 at a stable temperature, reduces manual control, saves manual operation, and makes the magnified image of the microscope mechanism 3 more stable, which is convenient for the staff to observe, thereby avoiding the occurrence of missed inspections. At the same time, the illumination lamp 51 illuminates the watch case to better observe the details on the surface of the watch case.

[0034] Among them, the light shield 5 can reduce the leakage of light from the illumination source 51, making the light more concentrated and improving the lighting effect.

[0035] Preferably, the movable plate 22 has a first through hole 221, a slot 222 is formed inside the first through hole 221, a through hole 223 is formed inside the slot 222 to connect with the external space, a first screw 6 is provided outside the movable plate 22, the first screw 6 is screwed to the through hole 223, a fixing plate 61 is provided inside the slot 222, and the first screw 6 passes through the through hole 223 and is connected to the fixing plate 61.

[0036] Specifically, by turning the first screw 6, the fixed plate 61 in the slot 222 can be moved outward, thereby loosening the movable plate 22 on the column 21. Then, by moving the movable plate 22 up and down, the horizontal column 23, the movable block 24, the mounting block 25, and the microscope mechanism 3 can be moved, thereby adjusting the height of the microscope mechanism 3 so that it can move to the closest shooting height. Then, by turning the first screw 6 in the opposite direction, the fixed plate 61 is moved to stick to the column 21. The pressure applied by the first screw 6 to the fixed plate 61 increases the friction between the fixed plate 61 and the column 21, thereby fixing the height of the movable plate 22, and thus fixing the height of the microscope mechanism 3.

[0037] Preferably, the movable block 24 has a second through hole 241, and the movable block 24 has a dividing opening 242 that connects to the second through hole 241 on the side away from the mounting block 25. The movable block 24 has a tightening through hole 243 on the side near the dividing opening 242, and a second screw 244 is screwed into the tightening through hole 243.

[0038] Specifically, by turning the second screw 244, since the second screw 244 is screwed to the tightening hole 243, the two parts separated by the dividing opening 242 are tightened together, thereby reducing the size of the second hole 241, so that the movable block 24 is clamped on the cross column 23 to fix the position of the mounting block 25 and the microscope mechanism 3.

[0039] Preferably, a hollow groove 41 is provided on the upper surface of the bottom column 4.

[0040] Specifically, the hollow groove 41 on the base column 4 is designed so that when the watch face is illuminated by the light source 51, the light can penetrate the watch face, allowing the staff to observe the internal condition of the watch face.

[0041] Preferably, a positioning post 42 is provided on the upper end surface of the base post 4.

[0042] Specifically, the positioning post 42 corresponds to the hole on the watch case, so that when the watch case with the watch crystal is placed on the placement post 4, it can be placed in a precise position, which can facilitate the collection and comparison of each watch crystal image in the background.

[0043] Preferably, the upper surface of the base post 4 is provided with an anti-wear pad 43.

[0044] Specifically, when placing the watch case and crystal on the base post 4, the anti-abrasion pad 43 is used to prevent the watch case from rubbing against the base post 4 and causing scratches, thereby avoiding damage to the surface of the watch case during the inspection process.

[0045] Preferably, the bottom pillar 4 has a retrieval notch 44 formed on both sides opposite to it.

[0046] Specifically, by setting the notch 44, when the watch case is placed on the base post 4, both ends of the watch case have a suspended portion, so that the watch case can be picked up.

[0047] Preferably, the light shield 5 is provided with a number of fixing bolts 52 on its outer periphery, and the fixing bolts 52 pass through the light shield 5 and are screwed to the outer shell of the microscope mechanism 3.

[0048] Specifically, after the microscope mechanism 3 is inserted and installed on the mounting block 25, the light shield 5 is then fixedly screwed to the microscope mechanism 3 by the fixing bolts 52 on the outer periphery of the light shield 5, which facilitates the installation and removal of the light shield 5 and the maintenance and replacement of the illumination lamp source 51.

[0049] Preferably, the mounting block 25 has an insertion hole 251, and the microscope mechanism 3 has a top plate 31. After the microscope mechanism 3 is inserted into the insertion hole 251, the top plate 31 abuts against the upper end of the mounting block 25.

[0050] Specifically, after the microscope mechanism 3 is installed on the mounting block 25 through the through hole 251, the top plate 31 can be used to abut against the upper end of the mounting block 25 to fix the position of the microscope mechanism 3.

[0051] In addition, the mounting block 25 and the microscope mechanism 3 can be reinforced with bolts.

[0052] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
