[0046] Figure 1 This is a schematic structural diagram of an optical distortion detection system 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of the position adjustment device 100 of the detection system 1000 shown. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in one specific embodiment, the optical distortion detection system 1000 for glass includes a frame 400, a pair of conveyor belts 500, a screen 200, a position adjustment device 100, a projector 700, and an imaging device 300. The frame 400 is sequentially provided with a screen station, an adjustment station, and an imaging station. The pair of conveyor belts 500 are arranged along the extension direction of the frame 400 for transporting the glass 2000 to be tested. The screen 200 is installed at the screen station. A position adjustment device 100 is disposed at an adjustment station, located between a pair of conveyor belts 500. The position adjustment device 100 includes at least a drive mechanism 20 and a bracket 10 connected to the drive mechanism 20. The drive mechanism 20 is configured to controllably drive the bracket 10 to rise when the glass under test 2000 moves to the top of the bracket 10, thereby lifting the glass under test 2000 and disengaging it from the pair of conveyor belts 500. The drive mechanism 20 is also configured to controllably drive the bracket 10 to rotate upwards, thereby rotating the glass under test 2000 upwards by a preset angle. A projector 700 is mounted below the conveyor belts 500 and positioned near the shooting station. The projector 700 is configured to controllably project a preset pattern through the glass under test 2000 onto a screen 200. A shooting device 300 is mounted at the shooting station to capture the preset pattern displayed on the screen 200. Here, the preset angle can be determined according to specific design requirements, such as 45°, 50°, 55°, 60°, 65°, 70°, etc., ensuring that the preset pattern of the projector 700 can pass through the glass under test 2000. The software system can compare the preset pattern displayed on the screen 200 obtained by the camera device 300 with the standard pattern to determine whether the glass under test 2000 is qualified.
[0047] This embodiment employs a position adjustment device 100 to automatically adjust the angle of the glass under test 2000. Combined with an imaging device 300, a projector 700, and a screen 200, it achieves automatic detection of glass optical distortion, improving glass production efficiency and reducing production costs. Furthermore, due to the automatic adjustment of the glass's angle, stability is better, which improves the imaging effect.
[0048] See Figure 1 The shooting device 300 includes a camera 310 and a gantry 320. The gantry 320 is mounted on both sides of the frame 400, and the camera 310 is mounted on the top of the gantry 320.
[0049] Figure 3 yes Figure 1 A schematic side view of the position adjustment device 100 of the detection system 1000 shown. Figure 3 As shown, and see Figure 2In some embodiments, the position adjustment device 100 further includes a first mounting bracket 40, and the drive mechanism 20 includes a first drive member 22, which is mounted on the first mounting bracket 40 and has a first output shaft 221 extending out of the first mounting bracket 40. A bracket 10 is located above the first mounting bracket 40 and rotatably connected to the first output shaft 221. The bracket 10 is also rotatably connected to the first mounting bracket 40. The bracket 10 is configured to drive the bracket to rotate and move relative to the first mounting bracket 40 when the first output shaft 221 of the first drive member 22 extends upward in a controlled manner, thereby causing the bracket 10 to rotate the glass 2000 under test upward by a preset angle. Here, the first drive member 22 is an electric cylinder, the first mounting bracket 40 is cuboid, and the first drive member 22 is located inside the first mounting bracket 40. The first mounting bracket 40 has a top plate 41, and the first drive member 22 is fixed to the top plate 41.
[0050] Figure 4 yes Figure 2 The diagram shows a schematic structural representation of the slide rail 80 and sliding assembly 90 of the position adjustment device 100. Figure 4 As shown, the position adjustment device 100 further includes at least one slide rail 80 and at least one sliding assembly 90. The slide rail 80 is mounted on the top of the first mounting bracket 40, and each sliding assembly 90 is mounted on one slide rail 80 and rotatably connected to the bracket 10. Here, the slide rail 80 is mounted on the top plate 41. The sliding assembly 90 includes a slider 91 and a fisheye bearing 92. The slider 91 is mounted on the slide rail 80 and can slide along the slide rail 80, and the fisheye bearing 92 is mounted on the slider 91 and rotatably connected to the bracket 10. It can be understood that when the first driving member 22 lifts the bracket 10, the slider 91 slides along the slide rail 80, thereby realizing the upward rotation of the bracket 10.
[0051] In one embodiment, there are two slide rails 80 and two sliding components 90, with the two slide rails 80 arranged parallel and spaced apart. This embodiment uses two slide rails 80 and two sliding components 90 to improve the stability of the bracket 10 during rotation. In other embodiments, the number of slide rails 80 and sliding components 90 can be determined according to specific design requirements.
[0052] In some embodiments, the bracket 10 is provided with at least one limiting post 11, which is used to limit the glass 2000 to be tested and prevent it from slipping off the bracket 10. In a preferred embodiment, there are multiple limiting posts 11, which can better limit the glass 2000 to be tested. The bracket 10 can be compatible with glass 2000s of different sizes.
[0053] In some embodiments, the drive mechanism 20 further includes a second drive member 21, which is connected to the first mounting bracket 40 and configured to controllably drive the first mounting bracket 40 to move up and down. Here, the second drive member 21 is a cylinder. Since the first drive member 22 is connected to the first mounting bracket 40, and the bracket 10 is also connected to the first mounting bracket 40, when the second drive member 21 drives the first mounting bracket 40 to move up and down, it can also drive the first drive member 22 and the bracket 10 to move up and down.
[0054] In some embodiments, the position adjustment device 100 further includes a second mounting bracket 30 and a base plate 50. The second mounting bracket 30 is disposed around the periphery of the first mounting bracket 40. The base plate 50 is mounted on the bottom of the first mounting bracket 40 and connected to it. The second output shaft 211 of the second drive member 21 is connected to the base plate 50 and can drive the base plate 50 to move up and down relative to the second mounting bracket 30, thereby causing the first mounting bracket 40 to move up and down. It can be understood that the second mounting bracket 30 is fixed, and the second drive member 21 can drive the base plate 50 and the first mounting bracket 40 to move up and down.
[0055] In some embodiments, the position adjustment device 100 further includes a plurality of lifting shafts 60, which are respectively connected to the base plate 50 and the second mounting bracket 30, and move vertically relative to the second mounting bracket 30 when the base plate 50 moves vertically. In some embodiments, the number of lifting shafts 60 is four, and the four lifting shafts 60 are evenly arranged. In other embodiments, the number of lifting shafts 60 can be determined according to specific design requirements.
[0056] Figure 5 yes Figure 2 The diagram shows a schematic structural representation of the rotating assembly of the position adjustment device. Figure 6 yes Figure 2 A schematic partial cross-sectional view of the position adjustment device shown. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the drive mechanism 20 further includes a third drive member 23, and the position adjustment device 100 further includes a rotating assembly 70. The rotating assembly 70 is connected to the first mounting bracket 40 and is configured to rotate under the drive of the third drive member 23, thereby driving the first mounting bracket 40 and the bracket 10 to rotate, so as to adjust the left and right angles of the glass under test 2000. Here, the third drive member 23 is a servo motor. This embodiment can not only adjust the angle of the glass under test 2000 in the vertical direction, but also adjust the angle of the glass under test 2000 in the left and right direction, which can better detect optical distortion of the glass under test 2000.
[0057] In some embodiments, the third drive member 23 is mounted on the base plate 50, and the rotating assembly 70 is located between the first mounting bracket 40 and the base plate 50, and includes a first gear 71 and a second gear 72. The first gear 71 is sleeved on the third output shaft 231 of the third drive member 23, and the second gear 72 includes a first part 721 and a second part 722. The first part 721 meshes with the first gear 71 and is connected to the first mounting bracket 40, and the second part 722 is located at the middle position of the first part 721 and can rotate relative to the first part 722. The second part 722 is connected to the base plate 50. It can be understood that the third drive member 23 drives the first gear 71 to rotate, and the first gear 71 drives the first part 721 of the second gear 72 to rotate relative to the second part 722. Since the first part 721 is connected to the first mounting bracket 40 and the second part 722 is connected to the base plate 50, the second part 722 remains stationary, while the first part 721 drives the first mounting bracket 40 to rotate. In other embodiments, the structure of the rotating assembly 70 can be determined according to specific design requirements.
[0058] In some embodiments, at least one sensing plate 41 is mounted on the bottom of the first mounting bracket 40, and at least one sensing block 51 is mounted on the base plate 50. When the first mounting bracket 40 rotates until the sensing plate 41 is located in the groove of the sensing block 51, a signal is triggered, indicating that the first mounting bracket 40 has rotated to the correct position. In this embodiment, there are multiple sensing blocks 51, which are arranged at intervals on the base plate 50. The sensing blocks 51 can be set according to the target position that the glass 2000 to be tested needs to rotate to.
[0059] This embodiment can limit the left and right rotation angle of the first mounting bracket 40 by setting the sensing sheet 41 and the sensing block 51.
[0060] In some embodiments, the optical distortion detection system 1000 further includes a control box 600, which is mounted beside the frame 400 and connected to the drive mechanism 20 and the imaging device 300. The control box 600 is connected to the first drive member 22, the second drive member 21, and the third drive member 23, and is used to control these drive members. A sensor is installed at the adjustment station and connected to the control box 600. When the sensor detects that the glass under test 2000 has moved to the adjustment station, it sends a signal to the control box 600, which then controls the motor of the conveyor belt 500 to stop driving the conveyor belt 500.
[0061] Working principle of the 1000 system for detecting optical distortion in glass:
[0062] Multiple glass samples 2000 to be tested are conveyed on conveyor belt 500. When the sensor detects that a glass sample 2000 has moved to the adjustment position, the control box 600 controls the motor to stop driving the conveyor belt 500. Then, it controls the first drive unit 22 to lift the bracket 10, causing the glass sample 2000 to be tested to detach from the conveyor belt 500. Then, it controls the second drive unit 21 to drive the bracket 10 to rotate upward, causing the glass sample 2000 to tilt upward at a preset angle. Afterward, the control box 600 controls the projector 700 to display a preset pattern through the glass sample 2000 onto the screen 200, and controls the imaging device 300 to capture the preset pattern displayed on the screen 200. Then, the control box 600 controls the third drive unit 23 to rotate the first mounting bracket 40 to adjust the angle of the first mounting bracket 40 in the left and right directions, and controls the imaging device 300 to continue capturing the preset pattern displayed on the screen 200. The software system then compares the preset pattern on the screen 200 with the standard pattern to determine whether the glass under test 2000 is qualified, thus realizing the optical distortion detection of the glass under test 2000. After the glass under test 2000 has been detected, the control box 600 moves the glass under test 2000 back to its original position, that is, moves the glass under test 2000 back onto the conveyor belt 500. Then, the control box 600 controls the motor to drive the conveyor belt 500 to transport the glass under test 2000 to the next workstation. When the next glass under test 2000 is transported to the adjustment station, the above process continues to realize the optical distortion detection of the next glass under test 2000.
