Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of injection molding production equipment, and specifically to an appearance inspection device for injection molding production. Background Technology

[0002] Injection molded parts are components manufactured using the injection molding process. They are typically made of plastic or rubber materials and are widely used in various fields such as electronics, automobiles, medical devices, and home appliances. Injection molding is a process in which thermoplastic or thermosetting materials are processed through molds and injection machines to create various shapes of plastic or rubber products. With continuous technological advancements and increasing demands for product quality, injection molding technology will continue to be widely applied and developed in various fields. In the future, the production of injection molded parts will place greater emphasis on environmental protection, energy conservation, and sustainable development. At the same time, the precision, strength, and durability of injection molded parts will be further improved.

[0003] Existing appearance inspection equipment for injection molded parts production lacks efficient automated inspection capabilities, such as the injection molded parts weight and appearance inspection device disclosed in application number CN202321953501.2. These existing appearance inspection devices for injection molded parts use a single installation position for the inspection mechanism and lack corresponding automatic adjustment functions. This prevents efficient automatic inspection of injection molded parts. The single installation position means it can only inspect injection molded parts at specific locations or angles. If the size, shape, or inspection area of ​​the injection molded part changes, the inspection mechanism may not accurately capture the area to be inspected, resulting in a limited inspection range and an inability to comprehensively cover appearance defects, thus increasing the risk of missed inspections. Because the inspection mechanism lacks automatic adjustment, manual adjustment of its position or angle may be required when inspecting injection molded parts of different sizes or types. This is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but may also affect inspection efficiency. The inflexible installation position of the inspection mechanism may lead to unsuitable inspection angles or distances, affecting the accuracy of the inspection results and increasing the likelihood of poor inspection performance during use, ultimately impacting the quality of subsequent product packaging.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent an appearance inspection device for injection molded parts production to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

The auxiliary slots 404 are respectively opened on both sides of the bottom surface of the top seat 4. An auxiliary slider 405 is installed in the middle of the auxiliary slot 404. The auxiliary slider 405 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting table 6. A motor 406 is provided at one end of the reciprocating screw 402. Two motors 406 are provided and are located at the middle of both ends of the top seat 4. A rotating shaft 407 is provided at the connection between the reciprocating screw 402 and the inner wall of the moving slot 401.

[0025] Bases 5 are provided on both sides below the top base 4. Two bases 5 are provided, corresponding to the number of connecting platforms 6. A connector 501 is installed in the center of the top surface of the base 5. A detection camera 502 is installed below the connector 501, located in the center of the bottom surface of the base 5. A protective frame 503 is provided around the bottom edge of the base 5. Connecting frames 504 are installed on both sides of the surface of the base 5. The connecting frames 504 are I-shaped. The top is connected to the bottom of the connecting platform 6. A docking sensor 505 is installed on one side of the bottom surface of the protective frame 503. A feeding frame 506 corresponding to the position of the detection camera 502 is set on the surface of the conveyor frame 7. A sensor receiver matching the docking sensor 505 is set on one side inside the feeding frame 506. A connecting platform 6 is set between the top of the machine base 2 and the bottom surface of the top base 4. A conveyor frame 7 is set on the surface of the work frame 1. A display 8 is set on one side of the front end of the work frame 1. A controller 9 is set on the other side of the front end of the work frame 1.

[0026] The working principle of this practical application is as follows:

[0027] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1-5For this type of appearance inspection equipment used in injection molding production, the equipment first uses the base 2 to drive the lifting platform 3 to move up and down. The relative position between the inspection camera 502 and the injection molded part can be adjusted to accommodate the inspection needs of injection molded parts of different sizes. The conveyor frame 7 is used to transport the injection molded part to the inspection position. The inspection camera 502 is used to capture images of the injection molded part. When the injection molded part is transported to the inspection position, the inspection camera 502 takes a picture of it. The captured image is transmitted to the controller 9 for image processing and analysis. The controller usually has a dedicated image processing system. This system can convert the image signal into a digital signal based on information such as pixel distribution, brightness, and color, and perform various calculations to extract target features, thereby distinguishing between good and defective products. The top seat 4 has two sides at the center of its bottom surface. A reciprocating screw 402 and a moving block 403 are installed in the movable groove 401. The reciprocating screw 402 is driven to rotate by the motor 406, so that the moving block 403 moves back and forth in the movable groove 401. This design allows the detection camera 502 to move horizontally within a certain range, thereby realizing the detection of different parts of the injection molded part. The auxiliary groove 404 and the auxiliary slider 405 are designed to increase the stability and accuracy of the movement. The docking sensor 505 installed on one side of the bottom surface of the protective frame 503 matches the sensor receiver set on the surface of the conveyor frame 7. It is used to detect whether the injection molded part has reached the detection position. When the injection molded part is transported to the detection position and triggers the sensor receiver, the docking sensor 505 will send a signal to the controller 9. The controller 9 will then start the detection camera 502 to take pictures and analyze.

[0028] When using this device, initial setup is required, including adjusting the height of the lifting platform 3, setting the parameters of the detection camera 502, and calibrating the docking sensor 505. The injection molded part to be inspected is transported to the inspection position by the conveyor frame 7. When the injection molded part reaches the inspection position and triggers the sensor receiver, the docking sensor 505 sends a signal to the controller 9. The controller 9 then activates the detection camera 502 to take a picture and transmits the captured image to the image processing system for analysis. The image processing system performs calculations and analysis on the received image and, based on preset good and bad product judgment standards, determines whether the injection molded part is qualified. The test results are displayed in real time on the monitor 8, including information such as the total number of tests, the total number of qualified products, and the total number of unqualified products. The controller 9 will also control the on-site equipment actions based on the judgment results, such as continuing to transport good products to the next process or rejecting defective products. The various parameters of the equipment are calibrated and adjusted regularly to ensure the accuracy and stability of the test. Through the above description of the working principle and usage method, it can be seen that this appearance inspection equipment for injection molded parts production has the advantages of high automation, high inspection efficiency, and accurate and reliable inspection results. It can effectively improve the production quality and efficiency of injection molded parts and reduce the cost and error rate of manual inspection.
