[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machine vision inspection technology, and in particular to a machine vision camera with adjustable binocular spacing. Background Technology
[0002] The purpose of a machine vision camera is to transmit images projected onto a sensor through a lens to a machine device that can store, analyze, and / or display them. The images can be displayed on a simple terminal, such as using a computer system to display, store, and analyze the images. The appearance of an object can be inspected using a machine vision camera.
[0003] Traditional machine vision cameras are typically fixed in a suitable position on the detection device, and then the camera is used to photograph and identify the object, and then the appearance of the object is inspected. However, when encountering objects of different sizes, the limited shooting angle of the machine vision camera makes it impossible to inspect objects of different sizes. Therefore, to address the above problem, a binocular adjustable distance machine vision camera is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a binocular adjustable distance machine vision camera.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A binocular adjustable distance machine vision camera includes a housing and an adjustment body. The housing has a placement slot inside, and the adjustment body is installed inside the housing. A rotating block is installed in front of the adjustment body. The camera body is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating block. A wire is fixedly connected to one side of the camera body. The other end of the wire is fixedly connected to the housing. A control body is fixedly connected to the top right side of the housing, and a fixing body is fixedly connected to the top of the housing.
[0007] Preferably, the adjusting body includes a crossbar and a limiting rod. A limiting groove is formed in front of the crossbar, and a limiting rod is provided in the limiting groove of the adjusting body. A sliding groove is formed in front of the limiting rod, and a slider is slidably connected in the sliding groove of the limiting rod. The slider is rotatably connected to a rotating block in front. A rubber plate is fixedly connected in front of the crossbar, and the rubber plate is tightly fitted to the rotating block in front. Two vertically arranged and symmetrically distributed push rods are fixedly connected behind the limiting rod. A push plate is fixedly connected to the end of the push rod away from the limiting rod, and a spring is provided on the outer side of the end of the push rod away from the limiting rod.

[0009] Preferably, both ends of the crossbar are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the placement groove opened in the outer shell, and there are two rubber plates in total, with the two rubber plates respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the limiting rod.
[0010] Preferably, the push rod passes through the rear end of the housing, the rear side of the housing is in close contact with the positioning spring, and the rear of the positioning spring is in close contact with the push plate.
[0011] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] This utility model discloses a binocular adjustable-pitch machine vision camera. Through the design of a rotating block, a horizontal bar, a limiting groove, a rubber plate, a limiting rod, a sliding groove, a push rod, a push plate, a positioning spring, and a slider, the push plate and push rod can push the limiting rod to move within the limiting groove on the horizontal bar. After the rotating block leaves the rubber plate, it can push the slider to slide within the sliding groove on the limiting rod. Simultaneously, the rotating block can be rotated to adjust the position and angle of the camera body. Then, the push plate is slowly released, and the positioning spring pushes the horizontal push plate back to its original position, causing the rotating block to fit tightly against the rubber plate, preventing movement and rotation of the rotating block and camera body. This allows for adjustment of the camera body to accommodate the inspection of products of different specifications. Furthermore, the inclusion of a conical block allows it to insert into the rubber plate, causing deformation and increasing friction, further preventing movement of the rotating block and camera body, thus making the camera body more stable.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a binocular adjustable distance machine vision camera, including a housing 1 and an adjustment body 6. The housing 1 has a placement slot 4 inside, and the adjustment body 6 is installed inside the housing 1. A rotating block 5 is installed in front of the adjustment body 6. The bottom of the rotating block 5 is fixedly connected to the camera body 2. A wire 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the camera body 2. The other end of the wire 3 is fixedly connected to the housing 1. A control body 9 is fixedly connected to the top right side of the housing 1, and a fixing body 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the housing 1. With this setting, visual detection of objects can be achieved through two camera bodies 2.
[0021] As a further implementation of the above technical solution: the adjusting body 6 includes a crossbar 61 and a limiting rod 64. A limiting groove 62 is provided in front of the crossbar 61. The limiting rod 64 is provided in the limiting groove 62 of the adjusting body 6. A sliding groove 65 is provided in front of the limiting rod 64. A slider 69 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 65 of the limiting rod 64. The front of the slider 69 is rotatably connected to the rotating block 5. A rubber plate 63 is fixedly connected in front of the crossbar 61. The front of the rubber plate 63 is tightly fitted to the rotating block 5. The rear of the limiting rod 64 is fixedly connected to... Two vertically arranged push rods 66 are symmetrically distributed. A push plate 67 is fixedly connected to the end of each push rod 66 away from the limiting rod 64. A spring is installed on the outer side of the end of each push rod 66 away from the limiting rod 64. Both ends of the crossbar 61 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the placement groove 4 opened in the outer casing 1. There are two rubber plates 63, which are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the limiting rod 64. The push rod 66 passes through the rear end of the outer casing 1, and the rear side of the outer casing 1 is tightly fitted with the positioning spring 68. The rear of the positioning spring 68 is connected to the push plate 67. Plate 67 fits tightly together. With this arrangement, the limiting rod 64 can be moved within the limiting groove 62 opened in the crossbar 61 by the push plate 67 and push rod 66. After the rotating block 5 leaves the rubber plate 63, the slider 69 can be pushed by the rotating block 5 to slide within the sliding groove 65 opened in the limiting rod 64. At the same time, the rotating block 5 can be rotated to adjust the position and angle of the camera body 2. Then, the push plate 67 is slowly released, and the positioning spring 68 pushes the horizontal push plate 67 to return to its original position, thereby causing the rotating block 5 to fit tightly against the rubber plate 63. To prevent the rotating block 5 and the camera body 2 from moving and rotating, the camera body 2 can be adjusted to adapt to the inspection of products of different specifications. A uniformly distributed conical block 7 is fixedly connected to the rear of the rotating block 5. The outer side of the conical block 7 is in close contact with the rubber plate 63. The conical blocks 7 are evenly distributed on the outer side of the slider 69. Through this setting, the conical blocks 7 can be inserted into the rubber, causing the rubber plate 63 to deform, increasing the friction, further preventing the rotating block 5 and the camera body 2 from moving, and making the camera body 2 more stable.
[0022] Working principle: When using this machine vision camera, it is first fixed to the vision inspection robot by the fixing body 8, then the power is turned on, and the control body 9 is connected to the vision inspection robot. The vision inspection robot can then control the camera body 2 to photograph objects, achieving appearance inspection. When it is necessary to inspect objects of different sizes, the push plate 67 is pushed. The push plate 67 pushes the limiting rod 64 through the push rod 66 to slide within the limiting groove 62 opened in the crossbar 61. At the same time, the positioning spring 68 is compressed, and the limiting rod 64 pushes the rotating block 5 and the camera body 2 to move through the slider 69 until the rotating block 5 and the conical block 7 are completely separated from the rubber plate 63. At this point, the camera can be moved directly. The main body 2 and the camera body 2 are driven by the rotating block 5 to slide the slider 69 in the groove 65 opened by the limiting rod 64. After the two camera bodies 2 are moved to the appropriate position, the camera bodies 2 are rotated to adjust the angle of the two camera bodies 2 so that the camera bodies 2 can be aligned with the object to be detected. After the camera bodies 2 are adjusted, the push plate 67 is slowly released. At this time, the positioning spring 68 pushes the push plate 67 to move away from the outer shell 1. The push plate 67 drives the limiting rod 64 to slide in the limiting groove 62 opened by the crossbar 61 through the push rod 66. The limiting rod 64 drives the rotating block 5 to move, so that the rotating block 5 and the cone block 7 set behind the rotating block 5 are tightly attached to the rubber plate 63, thereby realizing the positioning of the rotating block 5 and the camera body 2.
