Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to finished product detection technical field, concretely relates to a double -channel assembly line type detection machine. BACKGROUND

[0002] In modern production, assembly line type detection machines are widely used in quality detection, size measurement and classification of various products. Traditional assembly line type detection machines usually use a single transmission channel and are equipped with corresponding detection devices and discharge devices. However, with the expansion of production scale and the increase of product types, single-channel assembly line type detection machines gradually expose problems such as low efficiency, insufficient detection accuracy and poor flexibility. In order to solve these problems, the industry has begun to explore double-channel or even multi-channel assembly line type detection machines. Such detection machines can handle multiple products simultaneously by increasing the transmission channels, thereby improving detection efficiency. In addition, double-channel assembly line type detection machines can also flexibly adjust the configuration of detection devices and discharge devices according to the different characteristics of products to meet diversified production needs.

[0003] However, existing double-channel assembly line type detection machines still have some challenges in design and implementation. For example, how to accurately detect and classify according to requirements, and how to efficiently handle and discharge detected products. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new type of double-channel assembly line type detection machine to solve the problems existing in the prior art. SUMMARY

[0004] The utility model aims at solving at least one of the above technical problems.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the first purpose of the utility model is to provide a double-channel assembly line type detection machine, which comprises: a first transmission part; at least two second transmission parts, the first transmission part being connected with the second transmission part; a height limiting device, the height limiting device being connected with the first transmission part; a shunt device, the shunt device being connected with the first transmission part; a backflow device, the backflow device being connected with the first transmission part; a detection device, the detection device being connected with the second transmission part; and a discharge device, the discharge device being connected with the second transmission part.

[0006] By integrating the first and second transmission sections, height limiting devices, diversion devices, return devices, detection devices, and discharge devices, automated item detection and flow management can be achieved, significantly improving overall work efficiency and reducing manual operation time and costs. The equipment design ensures smooth flow of items between different stages, reducing congestion and stockpiling in logistics, helping to optimize the layout of the entire production line and improve production efficiency. The discharge device design allows items to be flexibly packaged according to demand, facilitating subsequent packaging and shipping, and enhancing the adaptability of the production system. The detection device enables real-time monitoring of item status, and can directly feed back to the management system when anomalies occur, facilitating timely adjustments to production plans and responses to emergencies. Modular design allows for adjustments to equipment configuration according to actual needs, saving production space while reducing resource consumption for equipment maintenance and operation. The height limiting device prevents product accumulation from affecting detection results, and laying items flat and passing them individually through the detection device improves the reliability of detection results. The connection design between the first and second transmission sections allows items to move flexibly on different transmission lines, adapting to different production needs and improving the system's flexibility and scalability. Multiple secondary conveyor units can operate in parallel, allowing the detection and discharging devices to process multiple items simultaneously, reducing waiting time and improving overall efficiency. Connecting height limiting, diversion, and return devices to the primary conveyor unit enables unified management of item flow at each stage, facilitating real-time adjustments and optimization of the operational process. Modular design facilitates equipment maintenance and replacement, improving maintainability and lifespan, and reducing production downtime. Optimized item transport paths and diversion / return mechanisms better control material flow, preventing unnecessary material loss, ensuring effective utilization of raw materials and finished products, and improving the efficiency and reliability of product detection.

[0007] In any of the above technical solutions, the detection device includes: a sensing device; an imaging device; and an encoder, wherein the encoder is connected to the sensing device and the imaging device.

[0008] An item passes through a sensing device and transmits its position information to an encoder. The encoder then calculates the item's position in real time and controls the imaging device to take a picture and perform an inspection. This multi-faceted inspection method comprehensively assesses the quality of the item, ensuring accurate detection. The introduction of the encoder accurately records the item's position information, and combined with data from the sensing and imaging devices, makes the inspection process more detailed and accurate, reducing the possibility of missed or false detections. The combination of sensing, imaging, and encoder devices allows the system to process data in real time, quickly identify abnormal items or problems, and ensure timely feedback in the production process. The automated design of the inspection device reduces manual intervention, optimizes the operating process, and improves the stability and reliability of the system.

[0009] In any of the above technical solutions, the shooting device includes: an industrial camera; a reflector; a light source connected to the reflector; and a backlight panel; wherein the industrial camera, the reflector, and the light source are located on the same side of the second transmission section, and the backlight panel is located on the side of the second transmission section away from the light source.

[0010] The reflector design effectively reduces interference from external light sources on industrial camera imaging, ensuring stable lighting during shooting and improving image clarity and readability, especially in complex lighting environments. The combination of the light source and reflector makes the lighting in the shooting area more uniform, avoiding image distortion caused by shadows or direct strong light, thereby improving the accuracy of item recognition and quality inspection. The backlight provides additional background light for shooting, making the outlines of the photographed items clearer, especially in the recognition of patterns, text, or details, improving the system's recognition capabilities. Clear image data accelerates subsequent image processing and analysis, improving the response speed of automated inspection systems, thereby increasing the overall efficiency of the production line. The reasonable light source layout and reflector protection greatly improve the accuracy of recognition during shooting, reducing misidentification and missed identification caused by insufficient light or interference.

[0011] In any of the above technical solutions, the discharge device is provided with a first discharge port, a second discharge port, and a third discharge port, which are used to separate the items on the second transmission section.

[0012] The design of multiple discharge ports allows for the simultaneous packaging of different types or specifications of items, reducing the bottleneck effect of a single discharge port and thus improving overall production efficiency. Different discharge ports can package different item types or sizes, enhancing the system's flexibility and enabling it to adapt to various production needs and market changes. Multiple discharge ports effectively guide items to different packaging channels according to specific categories and needs, optimizing the flow of items on the production line and improving overall workflow efficiency. In traditional discharging devices, items often need to queue for packaging, while the design of multiple discharge ports can process multiple items simultaneously, significantly reducing waiting time and improving production line operating efficiency. By guiding different types of items to different discharge ports, the chance of packaging errors can be effectively reduced, improving the consistency and pass rate of the final product.

[0013] In any of the above technical solutions, a third transmission unit is also included, and the second discharge port is connected to the third transmission unit.

[0014] After being packaged, items can be immediately transferred to the next process via the third transfer unit, reducing waiting time between packaging and subsequent processing, thereby improving overall production efficiency. The automated transfer design reduces manual intervention and reliance on manual operation, effectively lowering labor costs and reducing human error. Combining packaging and transfer functions allows for better utilization of production space, reduces the distance items travel between different processes, and improves the effectiveness of on-site management. Flexible transfer connections allow for easy adjustment of item flow, achieving compatibility between different production lines or equipment, thus adapting to diverse production needs.

[0015] In any of the above technical solutions, the dual-channel assembly line inspection machine also includes a packaging machine, which is connected to the third transmission unit.

[0016] By directly connecting the dual-channel automated inspection machine to the packaging machine, the packaging process is automated and continuous, reducing the transfer time between inspection and packaging. By immediately conveying inspected and qualified items to the packaging machine, production efficiency is significantly improved, the production cycle is shortened, and finished products quickly enter the packaging stage. Automated connection reduces human intervention and reliance on manual operation, thereby reducing labor costs and potential human error. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0024] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this utility model; however, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a dual-channel assembly line inspection machine, which includes: a first transmission unit 110; at least two second transmission units 120, the first transmission unit 110 and the second transmission units 120 being connected; a height limiting device 200, the height limiting device 200 being connected to the first transmission unit 110; a diversion device 300, the diversion device 300 being connected to the first transmission unit 110; a return device 400, the return device 400 being connected to the first transmission unit 110; an inspection device 500, the inspection device 500 being connected to the second transmission units 120; and a discharge device 600, the discharge device 600 being connected to the second transmission units 120.

[0026] In this embodiment, items are lifted from the item rack onto the first conveyor section 110. A height-limiting device 200, located above the first conveyor section 110, can adjust the height according to the item height, pushing down accumulated items and laying them flat on the conveyor belt. The flattened items continue to be transported backward with the first conveyor section 110, reaching the diversion device 300. The diversion device 300 divides the items on the conveyor section 100 into left and right sides, allowing only a single item to pass through each side, preventing multiple items from passing side-by-side. This ensures that subsequent inspections can be performed one by one, improving the reliability of the inspection. Two return devices 400 are respectively located on both sides of the diversion device 300. Excess items are squeezed out of the first conveyor section 110 by the diversion device 300 and enter the return devices 400, which then transport them back to the item rack for re-transportation. After being sorted, the items are transported by the second transmission unit 120 to the testing device 500 for testing, and then to the subsequent discharge device 600, where the qualified and unqualified items are repackaged. Repackaging can also be carried out according to classification or other needs.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the dual-channel assembly line inspection machine also includes: a third transmission section 130; a discharge device 600 is provided with a first discharge port 610, a second discharge port 620, and a third discharge port 630, which are respectively used to package the items on the second transmission section 120, and the second discharge port 620 is connected to the third transmission section 130; the dual-channel assembly line inspection machine also includes a packaging machine 700, which is connected to the third transmission section 130.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first transmission unit 110 cooperates with the height limiting device 200, the diversion device 300, and the return device 400 to divide the items into two rows and send them into the second transmission unit 120. The second transmission unit 120 uses a transport result detection device 500 to detect the transport results. After detection, the items continue to be transported and can be separated from any of the first discharge port 610, the second discharge port 620, and the third discharge port 630 as needed. For example, qualified items can be separated from the third discharge port 630, incompletely tested items can be separated from the second discharge port 620 and manually returned to the item rack for re-detection by the dual-channel assembly line inspection machine, and unqualified items can be separated from the first discharge port 610. The second discharge port 620 is connected to the third transmission unit 130, and products meeting specific conditions can be transported to subsequent production lines via the third transmission unit 130 as needed. For example, in this embodiment, products requiring packaging can be transported to the packaging machine 700 via the third transmission unit 130 for packaging. The second discharge port 620 has two openings, which are respectively connected to both sides of the third transmission section 130, which can greatly improve the efficiency of transportation, allowing storage while entering the next process.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the detection device 500 includes: a sensing device 510; an imaging device 520 including an industrial camera 521, a reflector 522, a light source 523, and a backlight 524, wherein the light source 523 is connected to the reflector 522, the industrial camera 521, the reflector 522, and the light source 523 are located on the same side of the second transmission section 120, and the backlight 524 is located on the side of the second transmission section 120 away from the light source 523; and an encoder 530, which is connected to the sensing device 510 and the imaging device 520.

[0030] In this embodiment, the industrial camera 521 is located directly above the second transmission unit 120, reflector 522, light source 523, and backlight panel 524. It is responsible for taking pictures of the product and transmitting the information to the encoder 530. The light source 523 is located at the top of the reflector 522, or it can be located inside it. The sensing device 510 is located in front of the shooting device 520. The item first passes through the sensing device 510. After the sensing device detects the item's position, it sends the position information to the encoder 530. The encoder 530 calculates the item's position and determines when to activate the shooting device 520 to capture a complete picture of the item. The captured image is then sent to the encoder 530 for detection based on pre-set information. After detection, the item reaches the discharge device 600, where it is packaged according to the detection results and pre-set packaging requirements. Air blowing devices are provided at the first discharge port 610, the second discharge port 620, and the third discharge port 630. When a designated item arrives at its designated position, it is blown into the corresponding discharge port for further processing.
