[0041] Preferably, the material moving mechanism 70 further comprises a translation bracket 73, the translation bracket 73 can translate relative to the second mounting bracket 71, and the translation bracket 73 has one material moving seat 72 fixed on each of the opposite sides, and the workpiece detection and correction apparatus is sequentially distributed with the feeding station 1e, the first station 1a and the discharging station 1f along the translation direction of the translation bracket 73, when one material moving seat 72 is located at the first station 1a, the other material moving seat 72 is located at the feeding station 1e or the discharging station 1f.
[0042] Specifically, the distance between the loading station 1e and the first station 1a, and the distance between the first station 1a and the unloading station 1f, are fixed. Therefore, when one transfer seat 72 is located at the first station 1a, the other transfer seat 72 must be located at either the loading station 1e or the unloading station 1f. When one transfer seat 72 is located at the loading station 1e, the loading process can be performed. At this time, the other transfer seat 72 is located at the first station 1a, allowing the workpiece that has completed one revolution on the carrier 30 to be removed. Of course, if the flattening effect is not satisfactory as determined by the second inspection mechanism 12, the workpiece can be left unprocessed and rotated back to the third station 1c for flattening. Conversely, when one transfer seat 72 is located at the unloading station 1f, the unloading process can be performed. At this time, the other transfer seat 72 is located at the first station 1a, allowing the workpiece to be placed onto the carrier 30.
[0043] In a preferred embodiment, the workpiece inspection and straightening equipment may also be equipped with a loading conveyor belt and a unloading conveyor belt, wherein, as can be referred to Figure 1 The end of the feeding conveyor belt can be set at the feeding station 1e to continuously send the workpiece to the feeding station 1e, and the end of the unloading conveyor belt can be set at the unloading station 1f to continuously send the workpiece to the unloading station 1f.

The motor 74 is fixed to the second mounting bracket 71, the synchronous belt 75 is drive-connected to the motor 74, the guide rail 76 is fixed to the second mounting bracket 71, and the translation bracket 73 has a connecting block 731 and a slider 732 on the side facing the second mounting bracket 71. The connecting block 731 is fixed to the synchronous belt 75, and the slider 732 is slidably connected to the guide rail 76. In this embodiment, the motor 74 can drive the synchronous belt 75 to rotate, thereby causing the translation bracket 73 to slide along the guide rail 76, thus realizing the translation of the material transfer seat 72.
[0045] In a preferred embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 4 The straightening mechanism includes a first component 21, a second component 22, a second drive source 23, and a flattening component 24. The second component 22 is positioned opposite to the first component 21. The second drive source 23 drives the first component 21 to rotate. The flattening component 24 is located on the side of the second component 22 facing away from the first component 21. During the flattening process, the flattening component 24 contacts the workpiece, thereby flattening it. The second drive source 23 can drive the first component 21 to rotate to a contact angle and a engagement angle, allowing the rotation of the first component 21 to select whether to flatten the area directly opposite the flattening component 24.
[0046] In this embodiment, since the first component 21 can rotate to both the abutment angle and the engagement angle, the flattening component 24 can be in two states during the flattening process. The following describes two possible situations that may occur when the workpiece inspection and straightening equipment is performing the flattening operation:
[0047] When the first component 21 is at the abutting angle, the first component 21 abuts against the second component 22, so that the flattening component 24 cannot retract during the flattening process, that is, the distance between the flattening component 24 and the first component 21 remains unchanged. At this time, the flattening component 24 can flatten the area directly opposite it.
[0048] When the first component 21 is at the engagement angle, the first component 21 and the second component 22 no longer directly abut against each other, allowing the flattening component 24 to retract during the flattening process. During this process, the flattening component 24 will be forced to approach the first component 21 and drive the second component 22 to engage with the first component 21. During this process, the flattening component 24 can avoid flattening the area directly opposite it by retracting.
[0049] Among them, can be combined Figure 5 The workpiece inspection and straightening equipment is provided with multiple sets forming a rectangular array, consisting of a first component 21, a second component 22, a second driving source 23, and a flattening component 24. Thus, during flattening and straightening, the actual flattening area can be selected according to the position of the uneven area on the workpiece detected by the first inspection mechanism 11.
[0050] In a preferred embodiment, the straightening mechanism further includes a power source 26 located on top of the flattening mechanism 20. The power source 26 can provide power for flattening the workpiece. The power source 26 can be a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder, preferably a hydraulic cylinder.
[0051] In a preferred embodiment, to facilitate the separation of the first component 21 and the second component 22, the orthopedic mechanism further includes an elastic element 25. During the flattening operation, when the first component 21 is at the engagement angle, the flattening element 24 is forced to approach the first component 21 and causes the second component 22 to engage with the first component 21. At this time, the flattening element 24 compresses the elastic element 25. When it is necessary to switch the first component 21 to the contact angle later, the elastic element 25 can drive the flattening element 24 away from the first component 21, while simultaneously causing the second component 22 to separate from the first component 21.
[0052] It is understood that the carrier 30 in this application uses a rotating method to transport the workpiece to each station, which is suitable for workpieces with small size and weight, such as the casing of mobile phones, laptops, tablets, etc.
[0053] The above description of disclosed embodiments enables one of ordinary skill in the art to make or use the application. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the generic principles defined herein can be applied to other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the application. Thus, the present application is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown herein but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
