Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of quality inspection devices, specifically relating to a gold electroforming quality inspection device. Background Technology

[0002] Gold electroforming is a technique that uses electrolysis to deposit a layer of gold on the surface of certain materials. Its basic principle is to form a metal layer by electrolytic deposition on the cathode (i.e., the electroforming mold). In the electroforming tank, the anode (positive electrode) is usually the pure metal or alloy to be plated, while the cathode (negative electrode) is the object to be electroplated. After the current is applied, the metal atoms at the anode dissolve into metal ions. These ions move to the cathode under the action of the electric field and gain electrons there to become metal atoms, which are then deposited on the cathode surface.

[0003] Electroplated parts must undergo quality inspection before leaving the factory to ensure product qualification and eliminate defective products. Using fiber optic sensors to inspect electroplated parts is a common method in industrial production. A fiber optic sensor is a sensor that converts the state of the object being measured into a measurable light signal. By measuring parameters such as the shape, size, color, and brightness of the workpiece surface, fiber optic sensors can automatically detect defects on the workpiece surface, such as dents, burrs, and bubbles.

[0004] In existing technologies, the electroplated parts to be inspected are usually placed on inspection equipment by workers or inspected manually. Although this can meet general processing needs, it is inefficient and difficult to meet the needs of gold electroforming production line processing.

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model proposes a gold electroforming quality inspection device. Utility Model Content

[0045] 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.

[0047] Furthermore, by Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, the first belt conveyor 2 is fixed to the top surface of the base 1 and is used to transport the gold electroformed parts to be inspected. The fixing frame 3 is fixed on the first belt conveyor 2, the cantilever plate 4 is installed on the fixing frame 3, the fiber optic sensor 5 is fixed on the cantilever plate 4 and located directly above the first belt conveyor 2, the second belt conveyor 6 is fixed to the top surface of the base 1 and located on one side of the first belt conveyor 2, and is used to transport the qualified gold electroformed parts. The six-degree-of-freedom robotic arm 7 is fixed to the top surface of the base 1 and located between the first belt conveyor 2 and the second belt conveyor 6, the pneumatic suction cup 8 is fixed to the output end of the six-degree-of-freedom robotic arm 7, and is used to transfer the qualified gold electroformed parts from the first belt conveyor 2 to the second belt conveyor 6. The collection hopper 9 is installed on the top of the base 1. Located below the end of the first belt conveyor 2, it is used to collect defective gold electroforming parts. With the above scheme, during use, the gold electroforming parts to be tested are placed on the first belt conveyor 2 for transmission. During transmission, the fiber optic sensor 5 detects the gold electroforming parts. For qualified gold electroforming parts, the six-degree-of-freedom robotic arm 7 moves, using the pneumatic suction cup 8 to pick up the gold electroforming parts and transfer them to the second belt conveyor 6 for continued transmission to the next station. For unqualified gold electroforming parts, the unqualified gold electroforming parts continue to be transported on the first belt conveyor 2 and are finally discharged from the end of the first belt conveyor 2 and fall into the collection hopper 9 for collection.

In actual use, the collection hopper 9 can also be configured at the end of the second belt conveyor 6, or the collection hopper 9 can be set directly at a position away from the first belt conveyor 2. The gold electroforming parts that fail the inspection can be transferred to the second belt conveyor 6 using the six-degree-of-freedom robotic arm 7 and the pneumatic suction cup 8 and finally transported into the collection hopper 9. Alternatively, the gold electroforming parts that pass the inspection can be transferred directly into the collection hopper 9 using the six-degree-of-freedom robotic arm 7 and the pneumatic suction cup 8. The gold electroforming parts that pass the inspection can continue to be transported to the next station on the first belt conveyor 2.

[0049] Preferably, by Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment also includes a threaded rod 13 and a wing nut 14. The threaded rod 13 is fixed to the end of the cantilever plate 4. The fixing frame 3 has an elongated hole 31 through which the threaded rod 13 passes. The wing nut 14 is installed on the protruding end of the threaded rod 13 by threaded engagement. With the above solution, the cantilever plate 4 is installed and fixed by the threaded rod 13 and the wing nut 14 during use. The installation is convenient and stable. On the other hand, the installation height of the cantilever plate 4 can be adjusted by loosening the wing nut 14 to meet other usage scenarios.

[0050] Preferably, by Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, there are two threaded rods 13 symmetrically distributed to ensure the stability of the cantilever plate 4 during installation.

With the above solution, the collection hopper 9 is designed to be rotated during use, and the collection hopper 9 is rotated by the drive mechanism 10. When there is a lot of waste collected in the collection hopper 9, the drive mechanism 10 can be activated to rotate the collection hopper 9 and pour the waste into the larger collection box 11 for temporary storage.

[0052] Optionally, by Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the drive mechanism 10 includes: a perforated mounting ear 101 and a drive motor 102. The two perforated mounting ears 101 are fixed at intervals on the top surface of the base 1. The collection hopper 9 is rotatably mounted between the two perforated mounting ears 101. The drive motor 102 is fixed on the perforated mounting ear 101 and is used to drive the collection hopper 9 to flip. With the above solution, in use, the perforated mounting ear 101 is used to support and rotate the collection hopper 9, and the drive motor 102 drives the collection hopper 9 to flip.

The fixing block 126 is fixed to the outer wall of the collection hopper 9 and corresponds to the positioning plate 122. With the above scheme, when the collection hopper 9 is flipped to the maximum position, the fixing block 126 hits the positioning plate 122. The positioning plate 122 moves down a certain position and the telescopic spring 125 contracts to buffer, which improves safety and is used to limit the flipping position of the collection hopper 9 to prevent the other end of the collection hopper 9 from hitting the No. 1 belt conveyor 2.

[0054] Preferably, by Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, there are two threaded posts 123 symmetrically distributed to ensure the stability of the positioning plate 122 during installation.

During the transmission, the gold electroforming part is inspected by the fiber optic sensor 5.

[0060] For qualified gold electroformed parts, the six-degree-of-freedom robotic arm 7 moves to pick up the gold electroformed parts through the pneumatic suction cup 8 and transfer the gold electroformed parts to the second belt conveyor 6 for continued conveying, and then transport the gold electroformed parts to the next work station.

[0061] For gold electroforming parts that fail the inspection, the unqualified gold electroforming parts continue to be conveyed on the No. 1 belt conveyor 2, and finally discharged from the end of the No. 1 belt conveyor 2 and fall into the collection hopper 9 for collection.
