Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of appearance inspection equipment, and in particular to an appearance inspection equipment for a front muffler assembly. Background Technology

[0002] After the front muffler assembly is manufactured, it usually needs to be inspected. The traditional inspection method is to place it on a workbench for observation, which is not only inefficient, but also prone to unclear inspection results.

[0003] Currently, visual inspection equipment is used for inspection. Existing visual inspection equipment is generally equipped with a high-intensity light and a mechanism for lifting the front muffler assembly. By placing the front muffler assembly on the work stand, the high-intensity light illuminates its ribs, which is efficient and makes the entire inspection more thorough.

[0004] However, using the above method, the high-intensity light is fixed to the work frame using a mounting bracket, and the cylinder pushes the front muffler assembly up and down, making it convenient for workers to use the high-intensity light for inspection. After the front side is inspected, the other side is inspected. However, during the entire inspection process, the front muffler assembly is relatively heavy, and flipping the front muffler assembly can easily increase the fatigue of workers, affecting the efficiency and quality of appearance inspection.
