[0015] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the enlarged correction structure of this utility model. Detailed Implementation
[0016] like Figures 1-3 As shown, an online inspection machine includes a machine base 1. An input mechanism 2 and an output mechanism 3 are respectively located on both sides of the machine base 1. The machine base 1 also has an inspection mechanism 4 and a feeding mechanism 5. The input mechanism 2 conveys the material to a designated position, and after adjustment and positioning, facilitates subsequent inspection of various parts. The output mechanism 3 removes the material from the inspection line. The feeding mechanism 5 includes a fixed frame 6, a chain guide rail 7, and a gripping assembly 8 fixed to the machine base 1. The chain guide rail 7 is arranged in the sequence of the input mechanism 2, inspection mechanism 4, and output mechanism 3. The stationary end of the chain guide rail 7 is fixedly assembled with the fixed frame 6, and the output end of the chain guide rail 7 is linkedly assembled with the gripping assembly 8. The chain guide rail 7 is a mature technology product with precise and reliable drive; therefore, it will not be elaborated or limited further here. After the material reaches the position via the input mechanism 2, it is corrected and positioned, and then transferred to the inspection point by the gripping assembly 8. Due to the adjustment of direction, multiple important parts can be directly inspected, and then the material is transferred and output after completion.
[0017] Briefly, the control system includes cylinders, solenoid valves, servo motors, servo motors, contact test heads, and a PLC computer user interface. Operators can set detection parameters, such as detection standards and alarm thresholds, and view detection results and statistical data in real time through the computer interface. Communication interfaces include uploading and sharing data via Wi-Fi or wireless networks such as USB. Through high-precision contact test head processing technology, real-time monitoring of product quality on the production line is achieved. This equipment features high precision, high efficiency, good adaptability, and low maintenance costs, making it suitable for various industrial production environments.
[0018] The input mechanism 2 includes a conveying component 9, a guide assembly 10, and a correction assembly 14. The guide assembly 10 is located on both sides of the conveying component 9, and the correction assembly 14 is located at the end of the conveying component 9 in the transmission direction. The output mechanism 3 includes an inclined slide. The conveying component 9 can be a conveyor belt or other forms, which are not limited here. The input mechanism 2 includes adjustment of the conveying direction and orientation; that is, the guide assembly 10 adjusts the conveying direction, while the correction assembly 14 adjusts the relative orientation.
[0019] The clamping assembly 10 consists of clamping rods 11, clamping blocks 12, and clamping seats 13 assembled in sequence. The moving direction of the clamping blocks 12 or clamping seats 13 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying assembly 9. In this embodiment, the clamping seat 13 is L-shaped, and the clamping blocks 12 are movably mounted on the clamping seat 13. It can be driven by a cylinder or other means. This is only one embodiment and not the only limitation. The length of the clamping rods 11 is suitable for the length of the conveying assembly 9, allowing for direct contact clamping and conveying of the material. A gap can be appropriately left, which can be adjusted according to actual needs. The correction assembly 14 includes a positioning fork 15, a positioning seat 16, a positioning guide rail 17, and a positioning rod 18. The positioning fork 15 is fixedly assembled with the positioning seat 16, and the positioning seat 16 is slidably engaged with the positioning guide rail 17. The positioning rod 18 is limited and mounted on the positioning guide rail 17 for circumferential rotation. The positioning rod 18 is threadedly engaged with the positioning seat 16, and the positioning seat 16 slides perpendicular to the moving direction of the positioning fork 15 through the positioning rod 18. The positioning fork 15 is inserted for positioning, guiding the drive shaft cage to correct its orientation. Before correction, the spacing of the positioning fork 15 can be finely adjusted by rotating the positioning rod 18 using the "screw drive" principle to achieve the designed effect. The threaded engagement and relative free rotation of the positioning rod 18 convert circumferential rotation into linear motion, a relatively mature technical principle, which will not be elaborated or limited here. The positioning fork 15 has a short fork portion 19 and a long fork portion 20 that contact the material, with the long fork portion 20 being longer than the short fork portion 19. The material side is hollowed out, and the narrow side width is small. In this embodiment, the long fork portion 20 is positioned on the inside, which is more conducive to the open-type orientation adjustment function, avoiding incomplete contact that affects positioning and improving the fault tolerance rate.
[0020] The correction assembly 14 also includes a mounting base 21, a telescopic cylinder 22, a slider 23, and a support rail 24. The mounting base 21 is fixedly assembled with the positioning guide rail 17. The mounting base 21 has an extension 25 in the length direction. The output shaft of the telescopic cylinder 22 is fixedly connected to the extension 25. The extension 25 is fixedly assembled with the slider 23, and the slider 23 slides in conjunction with the support rail 24. To avoid hindering subsequent gripping and detection, the positioning fork 15 will automatically retract after partial insertion and correction to provide gripping space. Since the conveying and detection are on an assembly line, the telescopic cylinder 22 needs to be offset. To avoid local bending deformation, the slider 23 and the support rail 24 are provided to assist.
[0021] The gripping assembly 8 includes a telescopic cylinder 22 and a gripping gripper 26 that are linked together. The gripping gripper 26 has various designs, which will not be elaborated or limited here. The detection mechanism 4 includes a mounting frame 27 and a fixing frame 6. The fixing frame 6 has a hollow structure, and the machine base 1 has slots corresponding to the fixing frame 6. The mounting frame 27 is equipped with several detection probes 28, and the conveying assembly 9 has photoelectric sensors on its side. In this embodiment, the fixing frame 6 is specifically designed to ensure that the material is contained within it and will not shift or deflect after loading. The mounting frame 27 serves as the mounting and fixing point for basic detection electrical components, and the detection probes 28 can be set as needed for concentrated and dense detection.
