[0047] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0048] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0049] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more features. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified. Furthermore, the terms "installed," "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 mechanical connection or an electrical 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. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0050] like Figures 1-6As shown, the clarity tester proposed in this utility model includes:

[0051] The box body 1 and the door body 2 set on the box body 1; wherein, one side of the door body 2 is hinged to the box body 1, and during use, the door body 2 can be opened and closed by operating the handle on the door body 2; the other side of the door body 2 can be connected by snap-fit ​​or magnetic attraction, and the existing technology can be used. As long as the opening and closing of the door body 2 can be guaranteed, this utility model will not further limit it.

[0052] The rotating assembly 3 is located on one side of the housing 1; and on the opposite side of the rotating assembly 3, on the side wall of the housing 1, there is a cooperating assembly 4 that assists in placing the container with the rotating assembly 3; the lighting device 5 is located at the top inside the housing 1; the image acquisition device 6 is located inside the housing 1, and the acquisition direction of the image acquisition device 6 is opposite to the center of the line connecting the rotating assembly 3 and the cooperating assembly 4; in this utility model, both the rotating assembly 3 and the cooperating assembly 4 are inclined. When the container is placed between the rotating assembly 3 and the cooperating assembly 4, it is in an inclined state. This allows the lighting device 5 and the image acquisition device 6 to be set separately, avoiding the lighting device 5 from being placed next to the image acquisition device 6 and the lighting device 5 from affecting the shooting effect of the image acquisition device 6;

[0053] The control device 7 is mounted on the housing 1 and is connected to the rotating assembly 3, the lighting device 5, and the image acquisition device 6 respectively. Specifically, a mounting box is provided on the inner wall of the housing 1, and the control device 7 is mounted in the mounting box and connected to the rotating assembly 3, the lighting device 5, and the image acquisition device 6 respectively via wires. In this utility model, the side wall of the housing 1 is a hollow structure, and the wires are laid inside the side wall of the housing 1. On the one hand, the wires can be better constrained, and on the other hand, the guidance should not affect the installation of other components.

[0054] In addition, an operation key 11 and a display screen 12 are provided on the housing 1, and both the operation key 11 and the display screen 12 are connected to the control device 7; the result of the comparison by the control device 7 can be displayed on the display screen 12; at the same time, the illuminance of the lighting device 5 or the start and stop of the rotating group 3 can be controlled by the operation key 11.

[0055] In practical use, for different test liquids, the illuminance of the illumination device 5 is adjusted by operating key 11. The container containing the liquid is placed between the rotating group 3 and the mating group 4, and the rotating group 3 is started by operating key 11. The container rotates between the rotating group 3 and the mating group 4 and is illuminated by the light emitted by the illumination device 5 during the rotation. At the same time, the image acquisition device 6 takes a picture of the rotating container and sends the picture to the control device 7. After acquiring the picture from the image acquisition device 6, the control device 7 analyzes and compares it, and sends the analysis results to the display screen 12 for display. Thus, the clarity of the liquid in the container is obtained.

[0056] It should be noted that in this utility model, the control device 7 is preferably a PLC circuit board and image processor in the prior art, and the lighting device 5 also adopts the prior art, such as a tri-color fluorescent tube, etc. This utility model will not further limit it in this regard.

[0057] like Figure 2 As shown, different backgrounds are required when performing clarity testing. Coating the inside of the box 1 with a single color cannot meet the needs of different situations. Therefore, in this utility model, a back plate 8 is preferably provided. The back plate 8 is movably set in the mounting groove on the top of the box 1. The back plate 8 can be coated with the color as needed, and the back plate 8 can be replaced as needed to ensure that different needs can be met during use.

[0058] like Figure 3 As shown, the back panel 8 includes a panel 81 and a limiting plate 82. The limiting plate 82 is located at one end of the panel 81, and its length is greater than the length of the mounting groove. Specifically, the limiting plate 82 is perpendicularly connected to the panel 81, and different colors are applied to the panel 81. During use, the panel 81 is inserted into the housing 1 through the mounting groove. Since the length of the limiting plate 82 is greater than the mounting groove, the limiting plate 82 will lock the panel 81 outside the housing 1 after it is inserted, thus limiting its position. After use, the limiting plate 82 can be operated to remove the panel 81 from the housing 1. It should be noted that the size of the panel 81 can be replaced, meaning that different sizes of panel 81 can be used to cope with different situations.

[0059] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the rotating assembly 3 includes a support frame 31, a drive body 32, and several rotating bodies 33. The support frame 31 is disposed on the bottom of the housing 1; the drive body 32 is disposed on the support frame 31; the several rotating bodies 33 are disposed on the support frame 31 and connected to each other by a transmission belt 34; and the rotating bodies 33 adjacent to the drive body 32 are connected to the drive body 32 by the transmission belt 34. When a start signal is received from the control device 7, the drive body 32 is activated and drives the adjacent rotating bodies 33 to rotate by the transmission belt 34. Since the rotating bodies 33 are connected by the transmission belt 34, several rotating bodies 33 can rotate simultaneously under the drive of the drive body 32.

[0060] The support frame 31 includes a frame 311 and several support units 312. The frame 311 is disposed on the bottom of the housing 1; the several support units 312 are disposed on the frame 311; the driving body 32 and several rotating bodies 33 are respectively placed inside the several support units 312; in this invention, the number of support units 312 is equal to the sum of the driving body 32 and the several rotating bodies 33; for better explanation, it is preferred to provide one driving body 32 and three rotating bodies 33; correspondingly, four support units 312 are provided; it should be noted that one of the support units... 312 is used to install the drive unit 32. Its size is different from the other three support units 312 to ensure that the drive unit 32 can be placed on the support unit 312. This utility model will not further limit it. In addition, a reinforcing plate 313 is provided between the support units 312 to ensure the stability of the support units 312. The frame 311 is provided with a wire hole 314 near the control device 7. If wiring is required in the housing 1, the wire can be passed through the wire hole 314 and constrained by the wire hole 314.

[0061] like Figure 4 As shown, the support unit 312 includes a support portion 3121 and a limiting portion 3123. The support portion 3121 is disposed within the frame 311, and a rotating groove 3122 is formed on the support portion 3121. The limiting portion 3123 is disposed on the support portion 3121 and cooperates with the rotating groove 3123 to limit the driving body 32 or the rotating body 33. The driving body 32 and the rotating body 33 can be disposed in the rotating groove 3122 as needed. Since the fixed part of the driving body 32 does not need to rotate, the rotating groove 3122 where it is located only needs to ensure the installation of the driving body 32. During the installation stage, the driving body 32 or the rotating body 33 is placed in... After the rotating groove 3122 is reached, the limiting part 3123 connects to the supporting part 3121 to limit the driving body 32 or the rotating body 33, preventing it from detaching from the rotating groove 3122 during use. In this utility model, preferably, both the limiting part 3123 and the supporting part 3121 are provided with screw holes (not shown in the figure), and the limiting part 3123 and the supporting part 3121 are fixed by bolt connection. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure that after the limiting part 3123 and the supporting part 3121 are fixed, the rotating body 33 can rotate within the rotating groove 3122. It should be noted that, in order to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, Figure 4 The limiting part 3123 is not shown in the text;

[0062] like Figure 5As shown, the rotating body 33 includes a rotating rod 331, a bearing head 332, a first transmission disc 333, and a second transmission disc 334. The rotating rod 331 is mounted on the support frame 31; the bearing head 332 is located at one end of the rotating rod 331; the first transmission disc 333 and the second transmission disc 334 are sequentially mounted on the rotating rod 331. During installation, the rotating rod 331 passes through the rotating groove 3122 and is restricted by the limiting part 3123; the transmission belt 34 is respectively sleeved on the first transmission disc 333 and the second transmission disc 334. During operation, the driving body 32 drives the transmission belt 34 to move, and the transmission belt 34 drives the first transmission disc 333 to rotate. Since both the first transmission disc 333 and the second transmission disc 334 are mounted on the rotating rod 331, the rotation of the first transmission disc 333 will simultaneously drive the rotating rod 331 and the second transmission disc 334. The disk 334 rotates; and drives the second transmission disk 334 on the adjacent rotating body 33 to rotate. It should be noted that, to further increase the stability of the rotating rod 331, a ring of protrusions can be provided along the axial direction on the outer surface of the rotating rod 331; grooves are provided on the rotating groove 3122 and the limiting part 3123 to match; when the limiting part 3123 is installed with the supporting part 3121, the protrusion can be restricted in the groove, and when rotating, the protrusion rotates in the groove, which can further improve the stability of the rotating rod 331 after installation; it should be noted that one end of the container is placed on the bearing head 332, and the inner surface of the bearing head 332 is provided with a rubber layer. When one end of the container is placed on the bearing head 332, the friction between the bearing head 332 and the container can be increased through the rubber layer; to prevent the container from failing to rotate simultaneously with the bearing head 332.

[0063] Additionally, the mating assembly 4 includes a mounting plate 41 and several mating arms 42. The mounting plate 41 is disposed on the side wall of the housing 1; the several mating arms 42 are sequentially disposed on the mounting plate 41. In this utility model, since three rotating bodies 33 are provided, three mating arms 42 are preferably provided for use with the rotating bodies 33. The mating arm 42 includes a connecting rod 421 and a receiving head 422. One end of the connecting rod 421 is disposed on the mounting plate 41; the receiving head 422 is disposed on the other end of the connecting rod 421. The receiving head 422 has an opening to facilitate the insertion or removal of the other end of the container. During the rotation phase, the mating arm 42 is in a stationary state, and the other end of the container rotates within the receiving head 422 under the drive of the bearing head 332.

[0064] like Figure 4 As shown, the image acquisition device 6 includes a mounting frame 61 and an acquisition body 62. The mounting frame 61 is disposed inside the housing 1; the acquisition body 62 is disposed on the mounting frame 61. In this invention, since the rotating assembly 3 and the mating assembly 4 place the container in an inclined state, the acquisition body 62 is inclinedly disposed on the mounting frame 61 to ensure that it can face the container directly. In this invention, the preferred acquisition body 62 is a high-definition camera.

[0065] The technical solution of this utility model involves setting a rotating assembly 3 and a mating assembly 4 within the housing 1. During testing, a container filled with liquid is placed between the rotating assembly 3 and the mating assembly 4, allowing the container to rotate during the testing process. Simultaneously, the container is illuminated by a light irradiation device 5 during rotation, and an image acquisition device 6 acquires an image of the container after illumination. The image acquisition device 6 then sends the acquired image to a control device 7, which compares the images to obtain the test result. Furthermore, as the container rotates, the image acquisition device 6 acquires images from multiple positions within the container, and the control device 7 compares and analyzes these multiple images, improving the overall test result and ensuring traceability. Compared to existing technologies, this utility model eliminates the need for manual container rotation, ensuring a consistent rotation speed. Moreover, the use of image acquisition and comparison to obtain the test result makes the final test result more accurate.

[0066] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
