Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts inspection technology, and more specifically, to a vision inspection head adjustment mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Automotive parts are the various units that make up a car and the products that serve the car. There are many types of automotive parts, and as people's living standards improve, their car consumption is increasing, leading to a growing market for automotive parts. After automotive parts are processed, their surfaces need to be inspected for defects. With technological advancements, visual inspection heads can scan automotive parts, using machinery to replace manual inspection. This not only increases efficiency but also improves the accuracy of inspection results.
[0003] Some existing visual inspection heads for automotive parts have fixed positions and lack angle adjustment capabilities, making it impossible to inspect automotive parts from multiple angles and reducing the inspection efficiency of the equipment. Therefore, we propose a visual inspection head adjustment mechanism. Utility Model Content
[0004] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides a vision inspection head adjustment mechanism, which adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A visual inspection head adjustment mechanism includes a support frame, a support frame fixedly installed on the inner wall of the top of the support frame, a support block slidably installed inside the support frame, a linear motor module at the bottom of the support block, a telescopic rod fixedly installed at the bottom of the linear motor module, a frame below the telescopic rod, a rotating rod rotatably installed inside the frame, an inspection head body fixedly sleeved on the side wall of the rotating rod, one end of the rotating rod rotatably passing through the frame, an angle adjustment component at the end of the rotating rod passing through the frame, a rotation component between the frame and the telescopic rod, and a drive component between the support block and the support frame.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, when the equipment is in use, the automotive parts are conveyed to the support frame via the existing conveying structure. Then, the detection head body scans and detects the surface of the automotive parts. Subsequently, the support block is driven to slide within the support frame by the drive component, and the support block moves the detection head body laterally. The detection head body can also be driven to move longitudinally by the linear motor module. The cooperation of the drive component and the linear motor module can adjust the lateral and longitudinal positions of the detection head body. The rotation rod is driven to rotate by the angle adjustment component, and the rotation rod drives the detection head body to rotate, which can adjust the tilt angle of the detection head body, facilitating multi-angle scanning and detection of automotive parts. The detection head body is raised and lowered by the telescopic rod, which can adjust the distance between the detection head body and the automotive parts, facilitating accurate scanning of the automotive parts. A rotating component is provided between the telescopic rod and the frame, which can drive the rotation of the detection head body.
[0007] Furthermore, the angle adjustment assembly includes a turbine fixedly sleeved on the side wall of one end of the rotating rod passing through the frame, a support frame fixedly installed on one side of the frame, a worm gear rotatably installed inside the support frame, the worm gear and the turbine meshing, a driven gear fixedly sleeved on the lower side wall of the worm gear, a first reduction motor fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bottom end of the support frame, and a drive gear fixedly sleeved on the side wall of the output shaft of the first reduction motor, the drive gear and the driven gear meshing.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the first reduction motor drives the drive gear to rotate, the drive gear drives the driven gear to rotate, the driven gear drives the worm gear to rotate, the worm gear drives the turbine to rotate, the turbine drives the rotating rod to rotate, and the rotating rod drives the detection head body to rotate, which plays the role of adjusting the tilt angle of the detection head body, so as to facilitate the equipment to continue scanning the automotive parts from multiple angles.
[0009] Furthermore, the rotating assembly includes a mounting box fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic rod, a third geared motor fixedly installed inside the mounting box, a connecting column fixedly connected to the end of the output shaft of the third geared motor, the bottom end of the connecting column rotatably passing through the mounting box, and the bottom end of the connecting column fixedly connected to the top end of the frame.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting column is driven to rotate by the third reduction motor, and the connecting column drives the frame and the detection head body to rotate synchronously, which plays the role of adjusting the scanning direction of the detection head body.
[0011] Furthermore, a collar is fixedly fitted through one end of the mounting box sidewall of the connecting column, and a mounting plate is rotatably fitted on the sidewall of the mounting box. Two symmetrically distributed stabilizing plates are provided between the bottom of the mounting plate and the sidewall of the collar. Support plates and splicing plates are fixedly installed at both ends of the two stabilizing plates, and the support plates and mounting plates, as well as the splicing plates and collar, are all fixed with bolts.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the connecting column drives the detection head body to rotate, the connecting column drives the collar, and the collar rotates synchronously with the mounting plate through the stabilizing plate. The cooperation of the collar, stabilizing plate and mounting plate helps to maintain the stability of the frame and the detection head body rotation. The mounting plate, collar and stabilizing plate are all fixed with bolts, which facilitates subsequent disassembly.
[0013] Furthermore, each of the two support plates has a fixed insert at its top, and the bottom of the mounting plate has a slot that matches the insert.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when installing the stabilizing plate, the worker places the support plate installed at one end of the stabilizing plate under the mounting plate, so that the plug installed at the top of the support plate engages with the slot opened at the bottom of the mounting plate, thereby positioning the stabilizing plate.
[0015] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a screw rotatably mounted in the support frame, a support block sleeved on the side wall of the screw, an mounting frame fixedly mounted on one side of the support frame, a second geared motor fixedly mounted in the mounting frame, one end of the screw near the second geared motor passing through the support frame and extending into the mounting frame, and one end of the screw passing through the mounting frame being fixedly connected to the end of the output shaft of the second geared motor.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the screw is driven to rotate by the second reduction motor, which causes the support block to slide within the support frame. The support block moves synchronously with the frame and the detection head body, thereby adjusting the lateral position of the detection head body.
[0017] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0018] (1) In this utility model, the combination of the drive component and the linear motor module plays the role of adjusting the lateral and longitudinal positions of the detection head body.

[0032] When the device is in use, the automotive parts are conveyed to the support frame 1 via a conveying structure in the prior art.

Then, the surface of the automotive parts is scanned and detected by the detection head body 9. Subsequently, the support block 21 is driven to slide within the support frame 3 by the drive component. The support block 21 moves laterally with the detection head body 9, and the detection head body 9 can be driven to move longitudinally by the linear motor module 2. Through the cooperation of the drive component and the linear motor module 2, the lateral and longitudinal positions of the detection head body 9 can be adjusted. The rotating rod 13 can be driven to rotate by the angle adjustment component, and the rotating rod 13 drives the detection head body 9 to rotate, which can adjust the tilt angle of the detection head body 9, so that the device can scan and detect the automotive parts from multiple angles.
