[0034] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, not the entire structure.

[0035] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0037] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper," "lower," "right," etc., refer to the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0038] Currently, when inspecting electrode burr detection equipment, production personnel typically conduct manual inspections of the optical modules of the equipment according to inspection standards to check the clarity, distortion, and light source brightness of the optical modules. This inspection process is tedious, complex, and inefficient, making it difficult to adapt to the current production pace.

[0039] To solve the above problems, such as Figures 1-3As shown, this embodiment provides an inspection device for inspecting the optical module of an electrode burr detection device. The optical module includes a light source, a reflector, and a lens. The inspection device includes a drive assembly 1, a first mounting member 2, and a second mounting assembly 3. The first mounting member 2 is disposed at the output end of the drive assembly 1. The drive assembly 1 is used to drive the first mounting member 2 to move closer to or away from the lens. The target is detachably mounted on the first mounting member 2. The reflector is disposed in the second mounting assembly 3. The light beam generated by the light source is reflected by the reflector to the lens, and the lens can acquire the image of the target.

[0040] The target is an object with a specific pattern or feature, used for testing lens imaging. The target is detachably mounted on the first mounting component 2 for easy assembly and disassembly. The drive assembly 1 moves the first mounting component 2, allowing the target to move closer to or away from the lens. When testing is needed, the first mounting component 2 is driven closer to the lens; when not testing is needed, it is driven away from the lens to reset, ensuring that the first mounting component 2 and the target do not interfere with the normal operation of the burr detection equipment. The second mounting component 3 contains a reflector to reflect the light beam generated by the light source back to the lens. The sharpness and distortion of the optical module can be evaluated based on the target image captured by the lens, and the brightness and usage of the light source can be evaluated by the brightness and darkness of the target's grayscale values. This inspection device automates the inspection of the optical module of the electrode burr detection equipment, greatly improving inspection efficiency. Compared to traditional manual inspection methods, this device completes inspection tasks faster and reduces reliance on manual labor, thus lowering labor costs.

[0041] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first mounting component 2 is provided with a slot 21, in which the target is secured. The slot 21 design makes the installation and removal of the target simpler and faster, without the need for complex tools or cumbersome operations. Installation is completed simply by inserting the target into the slot 21, and similarly, removal is also achieved by simply pulling the target out of the slot 21. This rapid installation and removal feature improves the efficiency of inspection. The slot 21 design also ensures the accuracy of the target's position during installation, ensuring that the target faces the lens in the same posture and position during each inspection, thus ensuring the stability and consistency of the inspection.

[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, the second mounting assembly 3 has a receiving hole 31, a receiving groove 32, and a light-transmitting hole 33. The receiving groove 32 is connected to both the receiving hole 31 and the light-transmitting hole 33. The lens is located inside the receiving hole 31, and the reflector is located inside the receiving groove 32. The light beam generated by the light source enters the receiving groove 32 through the light-transmitting hole 33 and is reflected to the lens by the reflector. The connection between the receiving groove 32 and the receiving hole 31 and the light-transmitting hole 33 allows the light beam to be transmitted from the light source to the lens, and the reflector ensures that the light beam reaches the lens along a predetermined path. Integrating the reflector and the lens into the second mounting assembly 3 helps to reduce the size of the inspection device, making the structure more compact.

[0043] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the second mounting assembly 3 includes a detachably connected second mounting member 34 and a third mounting member 35, which are joined together to form a receiving groove 32. The detachable connection design allows the second mounting member 34 and the third mounting member 35 to be separated or combined, thereby facilitating the installation or replacement of the reflector and reducing the complexity and time cost of maintenance. The joining of the second mounting member 34 and the third mounting member 35 to form the receiving groove 32 can accurately position and fix the reflector, ensuring that the light beam is not lost or deflected during reflection due to improper reflector positioning.

[0044] Specifically, the second mounting assembly 3 also includes a first locking member, which passes sequentially through the third mounting member 35 and the second mounting member 34 to thread them together. The first locking member securely fastens the third mounting member 35 and the second mounting member 34 together via a threaded connection. This connection method provides high connection strength and stability, effectively preventing loosening between the second mounting member 34 and the third mounting member 35, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the second mounting assembly 3. During installation, simply pass the first locking member sequentially through the third mounting member 35 and the second mounting member 34 and rotate the first locking member to lock it in place. Similarly, when it is necessary to disassemble the second mounting member 34 and the third mounting member 35, simply rotate the first locking member in the opposite direction. No additional tools are required, making the operation simple, quick, and time-saving.

[0045] In this embodiment, the first locking element is a bolt.

[0046] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, the third mounting component 35 has a first mounting surface 351 and a second mounting surface 352 set at an angle, and the second mounting component 34 has a first abutment portion 341 and abutment portion 342. The two ends of the reflector are respectively placed on the first mounting surface 351 and the second mounting surface 352, with one end of the reflector abutting the first abutment portion 341 and the other end abutting the second abutment portion 342. The angle between the first mounting surface 351 and the second mounting surface 352 allows the reflector to be placed within the second mounting component 3 at a preset angle. The first abutment portion 341 and the second abutment portion 342 provide stable support for the reflector, enabling it to maintain its position and angle. It should be noted that the specific value of the angle between the first mounting surface 351 and the second mounting surface 352 depends on actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0047] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the drive assembly 1 includes a main body 11, guide rods 12, and an air nozzle 13. The main body 11 has several cavities, and the guide rods 12 are correspondingly inserted into these cavities. A first mounting member 2 is located at the end of the guide rod 12 furthest from the main body 11. The air nozzle 13 can inflate or depress air into the cavities, causing the guide rods 12 to extend or retract. When the air nozzle 13 inflates the cavity, the air pressure inside the cavity increases, pushing the guide rods 12 to extend along the direction of the cavity, thus moving the first mounting member 2 away from the lens. When the air nozzle 13 depresses air from the cavity, the air pressure inside the cavity decreases, and the guide rods 12 retract under external pressure, thus bringing the first mounting member 2 closer to the lens. By controlling the inflation or depressurization volume of the air nozzle 13, precise control of the extension or retraction position of the guide rods 12 can be achieved. The drive assembly 1 has a fast response speed, enabling the extension or retraction of the guide rods 12 in a short time.

[0048] In this embodiment, there are three cavities, spaced apart within the main body 11, and three guide rods 12 are correspondingly inserted into the three cavities. The three guide rods 12 extend and retract together to drive the first mounting member 2 to move, which can effectively disperse the pressure of a single guide rod 12, enhance structural stability, and ensure the stability of the movement by the three guide rods 12, preventing wobbling or displacement, and ensuring that the first mounting member 2 will only move towards or away from the lens.

[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the drive assembly 1 also includes a stroke plate 14, which is connected to the end of the guide rod 12 away from the main body 11. The first mounting member 2 is connected to the stroke plate 14. The stroke plate 14 connects the first mounting member 2 and the guide rod 12. As an intermediate connector, the stroke plate 14 can effectively disperse the external force on the first mounting member 2 and the guide rod 12, avoid structural damage caused by excessive force at a single point, and improve the strength and stability of the connection.

[0050] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the first mounting component 2 has a waist-shaped hole 22, and the travel plate 14 has a mounting hole. The second locking component passes through the waist-shaped hole 22 and the mounting hole to connect the first mounting component 2 and the travel plate 14. The design of the waist-shaped hole 22 allows for adjustment of the relative position of the first mounting component 2 and the travel plate 14 within a certain range, thereby adapting to different installation requirements and allowing for certain manufacturing or installation errors to ensure smooth installation. The second locking component passing through the waist-shaped hole 22 and the mounting hole securely connects the first mounting component 2 and the travel plate 14 together. When it is necessary to disassemble or replace the first mounting component 2, the second locking component can be simply removed from the waist-shaped hole 22 and the mounting hole, making installation and disassembly simple and quick.

[0051] In this embodiment, the second locking element is a bolt.

[0052] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the inspection device also includes a dust blower 4, which can blow air onto the rearview mirror to remove dust. The dust blower 4 can periodically or as needed blow air onto the surface of the rearview mirror, effectively removing dust and other debris adhering to the mirror surface, helping to maintain the cleanliness of the rearview mirror surface and ensuring that it can accurately reflect light. The dust blower 4 makes the cleaning of the rearview mirror simpler and faster, achieving the cleaning effect without repeatedly disassembling and reassembling the second mounting component 3 or performing complex cleaning operations.

[0053] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
