[0016] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] Specific implementation examples are given below.

[0018] See Figures 1-3 A tooling for visual error prevention and defective product rejection of automotive parts includes a conveyor belt 1 and a slide 4. A first support frame 2 and a second support frame 3 of different heights are respectively installed on both sides of the conveyor belt 1. An inclined slide 4 is installed between the first support frame 2 and the second support frame 3. A first mounting frame 7 is installed at one end of the slide 4, and a first baffle plate 9 is installed on the bottom side of the first mounting frame 7. A second mounting frame 10 is installed at the other end of the slide 4, and a second baffle plate 12 is installed on the bottom side of the second mounting frame 10. A third mounting frame 13 is installed on the second mounting frame 10, and an industrial camera 14 is installed on the bottom side of the third mounting frame 13. A part unloading port 5 is opened on one side of the middle of the slide 4, and a defective product storage shell 6 adapted to the part unloading port 5 is installed on the side wall of the slide 4. A fourth mounting frame 15 is installed on the other side of the middle of the slide 4, and a pusher plate 17 is installed on the fourth mounting frame 15.

[0019] A first blocking cylinder 8 is installed on the first mounting frame 7, and the telescopic end of the first blocking cylinder 8 is connected to the first blocking plate 9. The first blocking cylinder 8 drives the first blocking plate 9 to descend, thereby blocking and separating the workpiece to be inspected.

[0020] The second mounting bracket 10 is equipped with a second blocking cylinder 11. The extension end of the second blocking cylinder 11 is connected to the second blocking plate 12. The second blocking cylinder 11 drives the second blocking plate 12 to move down to block the workpiece to be inspected.

[0021] A pusher cylinder 16 is installed on the side wall of the fourth mounting frame 15, and the telescopic end of the pusher cylinder 16 is connected to the pusher plate 17. A guide block 18 is installed on the fourth mounting frame 15, and a guide rod 19 that passes through the guide block 18 is installed on the pusher plate 17. The pusher plate 17 is moved by the pusher cylinder 16, and the defective products are pushed through the unloading port 5 to the defective product storage shell 6. When the pusher plate 17 moves, the guide rod 19 and the guide block 18 cooperate to play a guiding role.

[0022] After the automotive workpiece is processed, it is removed and placed into slide 4. The second blocking cylinder 11 drives the second blocking plate 12 to move down to block the workpiece to be inspected. At the same time, the first blocking cylinder 8 drives the first blocking plate 9 to move down, blocking and dividing the workpiece to be inspected. Simultaneously, the industrial camera 14 takes pictures. Good products move up after passing the second blocking plate 12 and enter the conveyor belt 1. The pushing cylinder 16 drives the pushing plate 17 to move, pushing the defective products through the unloading port 5 to the defective product collection shell 6. Then, the first blocking cylinder 8 drives the first blocking plate 9 to move up, and at the same time, the second blocking cylinder 11 drives the second blocking plate 12 to move down. The uninspected workpiece automatically slides to the inspection area.
