TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The visual inspection system is to use the industrial camera to replace the human eyes to complete the identification, measurement, positioning and other functions. The visual inspection system is generally composed of a camera, a lens and a light source, which can replace the manual detection of bar code characters, cracks, packaging, surface layer completeness and concave, and can effectively improve the detection speed and precision of the production line, greatly improving the yield and quality.
[0003] In the visual inspection, the camera is used to take pictures of the product for detection. When the camera takes pictures, a light source is needed to illuminate the surface of the product, so that the camera can take clearer pictures. The current corner coaxial light source uses high-density LED array to emit uniform light. After the light is reflected or refracted by the special coating of the semi-transmissive lens, the camera is kept on the same axis. This design makes the light perpendicular to the observed object, significantly reduces the interference caused by light scattering and reflection, and provides clear and shadow-free images. This makes the corner coaxial light source widely used and recognized in machine vision systems. However, in the traditional corner coaxial light source, the camera lens and the product detection surface are installed separately. The installation method is not only inconvenient, but also easily affected by external light, causing interference and reducing the detection accuracy. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
