Detailed Implementation

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0027] An adjustment component for a defect detection camera.

[0028] Includes a mounting plate 110, on which a defective camera body 120 is mounted, and on which a translation component for adjusting the position of the defective camera body 120 is mounted, and on which an angle adjustment component for adjusting the angle of the defective camera body 120 is mounted.

[0029] By incorporating translation and angle adjustment components, the defect camera body 120 can be flexibly adjusted in position and angle. This design allows for precise alignment with product defects, improving the accuracy of inspection results and avoiding inspection errors caused by deviations in the position or angle of the defect camera body 120. Furthermore, compared to traditional bolt-fixing methods, this component enables high-precision fine-tuning, significantly enhancing the convenience and accuracy of adjusting the defect camera body 120.

[0030] The movement component is responsible for adjusting the camera's horizontal and vertical position, ensuring that the camera can accurately align with the target being detected; the angle adjustment component is responsible for adjusting the camera's rotation and pitch angles, ensuring that the camera lens can accurately focus according to the target's shape and position.

[0031] The angle adjustment assembly includes a rotation mechanism for adjusting the rotation angle of the defective camera body 120 and a pitch mechanism for adjusting the pitch angle of the defective camera body 120. The rotation mechanism is mounted on the vertical movement mechanism, and the pitch mechanism is mounted on the rotation mechanism.

[0032] The angle adjustment assembly, through a combination of a rotation mechanism and a pitch mechanism, enables the defect camera body 120 to be adjusted in two directions. The rotation mechanism is responsible for adjusting the horizontal rotation angle of the defect camera body 120, allowing it to rotate 360° according to the position of the target being detected; the pitch mechanism is responsible for adjusting the vertical pitch angle of the defect camera body 120, allowing it to tilt up and down according to the height and shape of the target. This design ensures that the lens of the defect camera body 120 can be accurately aligned with the target area, improving the accuracy and reliability of the detection.

[0033] The pitch mechanism includes a rotating frame 510, on which rotating rods 520 are rotatably connected to the inner walls on both sides. Both sets of rotating rods 520 are mounted on the defect camera body 120. An adjustment box 530 is mounted on the outer wall of one side of the rotating frame (510).

[0034] The pitch mechanism, through the design of the rotating frame 510 and the rotating rod 520, enables the vertical pitch angle adjustment of the defect camera body 120. The rotating frame 510 provides stable support for the defect camera body 120, while the rotating rod 520 is connected to the transmission mechanism within the adjustment box 530 to adjust the pitch angle of the defect camera body 120. This design allows for precise pitch angle adjustment based on the height and shape of the target being detected, ensuring that the lens of the defect camera body 120 can be accurately aligned with the target area.

[0035] A fourth motor 540 is installed on the inner wall of one end of the regulating box 530. A second worm gear 550 is connected to the output end of the fourth motor 540. One end of a set of rotating rods 520 extends into the regulating box 530. A second worm wheel 560 is installed on one set of rotating rods 520. The second worm gear 550 meshes with the second worm wheel 560.

[0036] The pitch angle is adjusted by the meshing transmission of the second worm gear 550 and the second worm wheel 560 driven by the fourth motor 540. The rotation of the fourth motor 540 drives the second worm gear 550 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating rod 520 to rotate through the second worm wheel 560, thereby adjusting the pitch angle of the defective camera body 120. The transmission method of the worm gear and worm wheel has high precision and self-locking properties, which can ensure that the defective camera body 120 remains stable after being adjusted to the required angle and will not deviate from the angle due to external forces.

[0037] The rotating mechanism includes a rotating block 410. A third motor 420 is mounted on the inner wall of one side of the rotating block 410. A first worm gear 430 is drivenly connected to the output end of the third motor 420. A rotating shaft 440 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the top of the rotating block 410. One end of the rotating shaft 440 extends to the outside of the rotating block 410. One end of the rotating shaft 440 is mounted on a rotating frame 510. A first worm wheel 450 is mounted on the rotating shaft 440. A second worm wheel 560 meshes with the first worm gear 430.

[0038] The rotating mechanism, driven by a third motor 420, engages the first worm gear 430 and the first worm wheel 450, enabling adjustment of the horizontal rotation angle of the defect camera body 120. The rotation of the third motor 420 drives the first worm gear 430, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 440 to rotate via the first worm wheel 450, thus adjusting the horizontal rotation angle of the defect camera body 120. This design allows for flexible adjustment of the horizontal rotation angle of the defect camera body 120 based on the position of the target being detected, ensuring that the lens of the defect camera body 120 is accurately aligned with the target area.

[0039] The translation assembly includes a horizontal moving mechanism for adjusting the horizontal position of the defect camera body 120 and a vertical moving mechanism for adjusting the vertical position of the defect camera body 120. The horizontal moving mechanism is mounted on the mounting plate 110, and the vertical moving mechanism is mounted on the horizontal moving mechanism.

[0040] The translation component, through the combination of horizontal and vertical movement mechanisms, enables the defect camera body 120 to move flexibly in two-dimensional space. The horizontal movement mechanism is responsible for adjusting the horizontal position of the defect camera body 120, while the vertical movement mechanism is responsible for adjusting its vertical position. This design can precisely adjust the horizontal and vertical positions of the defect camera body 120 according to the location of the target being detected, ensuring that the lens of the defect camera body 120 can be accurately aligned with the target area, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the detection.

[0041] The horizontal moving mechanism includes two sets of limiting plates 210, which are respectively installed at both ends of the mounting plate 110. A first threaded rod 220 is rotatably connected between the two sets of limiting plates 210, and a first slider 230 is threadedly connected to the first threaded rod 220.

[0042] The horizontal movement mechanism, through the design of the first threaded rod 220 and the first slider 230, enables precise horizontal movement of the defect camera body 120. The rotation of the first threaded rod 220 drives the first slider 230 to move horizontally, thereby adjusting the horizontal position of the defect camera body 120. The limiting plate 210 provides stable guidance for the horizontal movement, ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the movement process.

[0043] A guide block 240 is installed on the top of the first slider 230, and a guide groove 250 is opened at the bottom of the mounting plate 110 to slide and connect with the guide block 240. A first motor 260 is installed on a set of limiting plates 210, and the output end of the first motor 260 is drivenly connected to one end of the first threaded rod 220.

[0044] Horizontal movement is achieved by the first motor 260 driving the first threaded rod 220 to rotate. The rotation of the first motor 260 drives the first threaded rod 220 to rotate, which in turn pushes the first slider 230 to move horizontally through the threaded connection. The cooperation of the guide block 240 and the guide groove 250 provides stable guidance for the movement of the slider, ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the movement process. This design not only improves the automation of horizontal position adjustment, but also achieves high-precision fine-tuning through precise motor control.

[0045] The vertical moving mechanism includes a mounting frame 310, which is mounted on a first slider 230. A second motor 320 is installed inside the mounting frame 310. A second threaded rod 330 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the mounting frame 310. One end of the second threaded rod 330 is drivenly connected to the output end of the second motor 320. A second slider 340 is connected to the second threaded rod 330 and is mounted on a rotating block 410.

[0046] The vertical movement mechanism drives the second threaded rod 330 to rotate via the second motor 320, thereby achieving the vertical movement of the second slider 340. The rotation of the second motor 320 drives the second threaded rod 330 to rotate, which in turn pushes the second slider 340 to move vertically through the threaded connection. This design allows for flexible adjustment of the vertical position of the defect camera body 120 according to the height of the target being detected.

[0047] A slide rod 350 is installed at the bottom of the mounting frame 310. A limit block 360 is installed at one end of the slide rod 350. A groove 370 is provided at one end of the second slider 340 to slide and cooperate with the slide rod 350 and the limit block 360.

[0048] The cooperation between the slide bar 350 and the slide groove 370 provides a stable guide for the movement of the slider, ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the movement process.

[0049] Specifically, the internal electrical connection structures of the defective camera body 120, the first motor 260, the second motor 320, the third motor 420, and the fourth motor 540 are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here. All electrical components appearing in this application are externally connected to a power source during use.

[0050] The circuits, electrical components, and modules involved are all existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need not be elaborated upon. The scope of protection of this utility model does not involve any improvement to the software.

[0051] The control method described in this application is automatic control via a controller. The controller's control circuit can be easily implemented by those skilled in the art through simple programming, and is common knowledge in the field. Furthermore, since this application is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail here.
