Unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal connection of two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances. Example 1
[0027] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a product double-sided image acquisition and inspection device includes a positioning loading platform 2 and a transparent image acquisition plate 3 mounted on a horizontal worktable 1, a pressure plate 4 capable of vertically pressing down on the transparent image acquisition plate 3, and a multi-axis transfer mechanism capable of transferring products between the positioning loading platform 2 and the transparent image acquisition plate 3. A vision inspection module (not shown in the figure) corresponding to the transparent image acquisition plate 3 is provided below the horizontal worktable 1. The multi-axis transfer mechanism includes a first transfer unit and a second transfer unit. The first transfer unit includes a first suction cup clamp 5 capable of adsorbing the product and driving the product to move horizontally and move vertically. The second transfer unit includes a second suction cup clamp 6 capable of adsorbing the product and driving the product to move horizontally, move vertically, and flip.
[0028] Specifically, the product can be placed in a fixed position on the positioning platform 2 by an operator or robot. The first suction cup clamp 5 and the second suction cup clamp 6 each have multiple vacuum nozzles connected to a negative pressure air source. When the first suction cup clamp 5 on the first transfer unit moves horizontally and vertically, the vacuum nozzles on the first suction cup clamp 5 can adsorb the product on the positioning platform 2 when the negative pressure air source is connected. Simultaneously, the first suction cup clamp 5 on the first transfer unit can again move horizontally and vertically to place the adsorbed product flat in a fixed position on the transparent imaging plate 3. At the same time, the first suction cup clamp 5 can move to another position after the negative pressure air source is disconnected, awaiting the next step. Meanwhile, the pressure plate 4 can press vertically down on the product placed on the transparent imaging plate 3, applying pressure to ensure that the image-capturing side of the product is tightly fitted to the transparent imaging plate 3, thus ensuring that the image-capturing side of the product is on the same reference plane. Because the transparent image acquisition plate 3 is made of a transparent material that does not interfere with light propagation or image acquisition, the visual inspection module can photograph the product surface through the transparent image acquisition plate 3 to complete the first image acquisition operation. This process ensures that the product image acquired by the visual inspection module is clearer and more accurate, improving the reliability of the inspection results. Subsequently, the first transfer unit can use a vacuum nozzle connected to a negative pressure air source, in conjunction with the horizontal movement and vertical lifting of the first suction cup clamp 5, to transfer and lift the product that has completed the first image acquisition operation to a certain height after the pressure plate 4 is removed from the transparent image acquisition plate 3. This allows the second suction cup clamp 6 on the second transfer unit to move below the first suction cup clamp 5, and also allows the vacuum nozzle on the second suction cup clamp 6 to flip to face the surface of the product where the first image acquisition operation was completed. Subsequently, the first and second transfer units cooperate to disconnect the negative pressure air source connected to the vacuum nozzle on the first suction cup 5 after the vacuum nozzle on the second suction cup 6 has adhered to the product. Simultaneously, the product can move horizontally, rise and fall vertically, and flip along with the second suction cup 6, so that the side of the product not being imaged rests flat in a fixed position on the transparent image acquisition plate 3. Afterward, the second suction cup 6 can move to another position after the negative pressure air source is disconnected, awaiting the next step. The pressure plate 4 can then press vertically down again onto the surface of the product placed on the transparent image acquisition plate 3, applying pressure to ensure the side of the product not being imaged is tightly adhered to the transparent image acquisition plate 3 for a second image acquisition by the vision inspection module. After the second image acquisition is completed, the pressure plate 4 is raised and reset, and the first transfer unit can transfer the imaged product via the first suction cup 5 to the positioning loading platform 2 for easy handling by operators or robots. By repeating this process, the cooperation between the first and second transfer units enables the visual inspection module to efficiently and clearly capture images of both the front and back of the product.
[0029] It should be noted that the pressure plate 4 mentioned above can be a POM board from the prior art, which has a smooth and seamless surface when bonded to the product, and applies uniform pressure to the product. Meanwhile, the visual inspection module mentioned above is prior art. Furthermore, unlike the above embodiments, in this technical solution, existing scanning imaging technology can also be used to acquire images of the product when it is attached to the transparent imaging plate 3.
[0030] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the positioning loading platform 2 is connected to the horizontal worktable 1 via a positioning mounting plate 7. The positioning loading platform 2 is slidably connected to the positioning mounting plate 7 via a linear guide rail, and a rack 8 is provided on the positioning loading platform 2 along its sliding direction. A servo motor 9, which is driven and connected to the rack 8, is provided on the positioning mounting plate 7. Specifically, the output end of the servo motor 9 is provided with a gear or gear set that meshes with the rack 8. By rotating the servo motor 9 forward or backward, the positioning loading platform 2 can be driven to move from the working range of the first transfer unit and the second transfer unit to outside the working range, facilitating material handling by operators or robots and improving operational safety.
[0031] The above, such as Figure 5 As shown, the positioning platform 2 is provided with a contoured positioning groove 201 for movably embedding products, and the positioning platform 2 is provided with multiple L-shaped positioning blocks 202. The multiple L-shaped positioning blocks 202 surround the contoured positioning groove 201. The contoured positioning groove 201 and the L-shaped positioning blocks 202 cooperate with each other to position the product on the positioning platform 2, ensuring the uniqueness of the product's position when loading and unloading.
[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, the positioning loading platform 2 and / or the positioning mounting plate 7 are provided with a positioning switch 10 electrically connected to the servo motor 9. The positioning switch 10 is existing technology and can ensure that the positioning loading platform 2 stops moving when it moves to a predetermined position within the working range of the first transfer unit and the second transfer unit, so that the first suction cup clamp 5 can pick up and put down the product in a fixed position.
[0033] In this embodiment, a vertical plate 11 is provided on the horizontal worktable 1. The pressure plate 4 is slidably connected to the vertical plate 11 via a linear guide rail. A servo slide 12 is provided on the vertical plate 11, capable of driving the pressure plate 4 to vertically rise and fall relative to the transparent image acquisition plate 3. The servo slide 12 is existing technology and can precisely control the distance between the pressure plate 4 and the transparent image acquisition plate 3. Furthermore, to avoid excessive pressure exerted by the pressure plate 4 on the transparent image acquisition plate, a pressure sensor (not shown in the figure) electrically connected to the servo slide 12 is provided on the pressure plate 4. The pressure sensor is existing technology and can monitor the pressure value exerted by the pressure plate 4 on the transparent image acquisition plate 3 (product) in real time. The pressure sensor and the servo slide 12 cooperate to maintain the pressure exerted by the pressure plate 4 on the product within a certain range, thereby improving the image acquisition quality of the visual inspection module. Example 2
[0034] like Figures 1-4 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, the first transfer unit includes a first transfer plate 14 slidably connected to the first gantry 13 along a first direction, and a first mounting base 15 for mounting the first suction cup clamp 5 is slidably connected to the first transfer plate 14 along a second direction. The first transfer plate 14 and the first gantry 13, as well as the first transfer plate 14 and the first mounting base 15, are slidably connected by linear guide rails. The first gantry 13 is provided with a first drive module capable of driving the first transfer plate 14 to reciprocate along the first direction, and the first transfer plate 14 is provided with a second drive module capable of driving the first mounting base 15 to reciprocate along the second direction.
[0035] The second transfer unit includes a second transfer plate 17 slidably connected to the second gantry 16 along a first direction. A second mounting base 18 is slidably connected to the second transfer plate 17 along a second direction. A rotary cylinder 19 is provided on the second mounting base 18. A second suction cup clamp 6 is connected to the output end of the rotary cylinder 19, and the rotary cylinder 19 can drive the second suction cup clamp 6 to rotate along a rotation axis perpendicular to the first and second directions. The second transfer plate 17 and the second gantry 16, as well as the second transfer plate 17 and the second mounting base 18, are slidably connected by linear guide rails. The second gantry 16 is provided with a third drive module that can drive the second transfer plate 17 to reciprocate along the second direction, and the second transfer plate 17 is provided with a fourth drive module that can drive the second mounting base 18 to reciprocate along the second direction.
[0036] It should be noted that the first drive module, second drive module, third drive module and fourth drive module mentioned above are all existing drive devices that can provide linear motion, such as linear motors, servo cylinders, synchronous belt modules, gear and rack transmission mechanisms, pneumatic or hydraulic transmission mechanisms or one or more, to ensure the movement accuracy of the first suction cup clamp 5 and the second suction cup clamp 6. Meanwhile, the first direction mentioned above corresponds to the Y-axis direction (including the positive and negative directions) in the spatial rectangular coordinate system, and the arrangement of the positioning platform 2 and the transparent image acquisition plate 3 corresponds to the first direction. That is, when the first suction cup clamp 5 and the second suction cup clamp 6 reciprocate in the first direction, they can move from above the positioning platform 2 to above the transparent image acquisition plate 3 or from above the transparent image acquisition plate 3 to above the positioning platform 2. The second direction corresponds to the Z-axis direction (including the positive and negative directions) in the spatial rectangular coordinate system. The first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other, and the rotation axis of the output end of the rotary cylinder 19 corresponds to the X-axis direction in the spatial rectangular coordinate system. That is, the rotary cylinder 19 can drive the second suction cup clamp 6 to rotate around any straight line parallel to the X-axis direction. Meanwhile, in this technical solution, in order to avoid the air pipes connected to the vacuum nozzles from getting tangled together when the rotary cylinder 19 rotates, a pneumatic rotary joint can be provided on the second mounting base 18. The input end of the pneumatic rotary joint is connected to a negative pressure air source through an air pipe, and the output end of the pneumatic rotary joint is connected to one or more vacuum nozzles through an air pipe. The rotation axis of the pneumatic rotary joint coincides with the rotation axis of the rotary cylinder 19.
[0037] Working Principle: The product can be placed on the positioning platform 2 by an operator or robot, and the product can move with the positioning platform 2 to a position convenient for the first suction cup clamp 5 to pick up and put down. Then, through the first transfer unit, the product can be placed flat on the transparent image plate 3. The product placed on the transparent image plate 3 is pressed down by the pressure plate 4, so that one side of the product can be attached to the transparent image plate 3, so that the vision inspection module can clearly obtain an image of the product surface. Then, through the cooperation of the first transfer unit and the second transfer unit, the product can be adsorbed and transferred on the transparent image plate 3. At the same time, the product can be flipped so that it is placed flat on the transparent image plate 3 again, and the other side of the product can be attached to the transparent image plate 3 by the pressure plate 4, so that the vision inspection module can clearly obtain an image of the other side of the product surface. Finally, the product placed on the transparent image plate 3 can be transferred back to the positioning platform 2 by the first transfer unit, so that the operator or robot can pick it up. This process is repeated, which can efficiently and clearly inspect the product.
[0038] Based on the preferred embodiments of this utility model described above, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
