Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass inspection devices, and in particular to an automatic glass inspection device. Background Technology

[0002] In the existing glass production and processing field, after the glass sheets are manufactured, their surface appearance quality usually needs to be strictly inspected to ensure the reliability and aesthetics of the product.

[0003] However, on many production lines, the inspection of glass plates is still mainly done manually. This inspection method is not only inefficient and difficult to adapt to the fast pace of high-volume production lines, but also the inspection results are easily affected by human factors, resulting in poor consistency. In addition, manual inspection is prone to problems such as missed inspections due to visual fatigue, which leads to unqualified products flowing into the next process, thus affecting the overall quality of the products.

[0004] Therefore, existing technologies have shortcomings and need to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an automatic glass inspection device that improves production efficiency and accuracy.

[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an automatic glass inspection device, comprising a feeding conveyor roller, a dual-axis moving mechanism, a suction plate, a first robotic arm, an inspection table, a light source module, a vision inspection module, and a second robotic arm;

[0007] The feeding conveyor roller is provided with a feeding platform on its side, which is used to stack glass plates. The dual-axis moving mechanism is located above the feeding conveyor roller. The suction plate is connected to the movable end of the dual-axis moving mechanism and is used to suction the glass plates onto the feeding conveyor roller.

[0008] The testing platform is located at the end of the feeding conveyor roller, and the first robotic arm is located between the feeding conveyor roller and the testing platform. The first robotic arm is used to clamp and transfer the glass plate on the feeding conveyor roller to the testing platform.

[0009] The visual inspection module is located above the inspection platform and is used to inspect the appearance of the glass plate on the inspection platform. The four light source modules are arranged around the circumference of the inspection platform and are used to provide light to the visual inspection module.

[0010] The second robotic arm is located at the side end of the testing table and is used to remove the glass plate that has been tested on the testing table.

[0011] Using the above technical solution, in the automatic glass inspection device, the ends of the first robotic arm and the second robotic arm are both provided with clamping claw mechanisms. The clamping claw mechanism includes a mounting base, a linear motion module, a fixed clamping plate, and a movable clamping plate.

[0012] The linear motion module is mounted on the mounting base, the fixed clamping plate is located on the side end of the linear motion module, and the movable clamping plate is located on the movable end of the linear motion module. A clamping gap is formed between the movable clamping plate and the fixed clamping plate. The linear motion module is used to drive the movable clamping plate to move toward or away from the fixed clamping plate in order to adjust the size of the clamping gap.

[0013] Using the above technical solution, in the automatic glass inspection device, the dual-axis moving mechanism includes a lateral moving module and a lifting moving module. The movable end of the lateral moving module is connected to the lifting moving module, and the movable end of the lifting moving module is connected to the suction plate.

[0014] Using the above technical solution, in the automatic glass inspection device, the light source module includes an LED light source, a lifting adjustment component, and a telescopic adjustment component. The lifting adjustment component is located on the side wall of the inspection table and is connected to the telescopic adjustment component. The telescopic adjustment component is connected to the LED light source and is used to adjust the lateral distance between the LED light source and the glass plate.

[0015] In the above-mentioned automatic glass inspection device, flexible rubber pads are provided on the inner walls of the fixed clamp and the movable clamp.

[0016] The automatic glass inspection device described above also includes a feeding conveyor roller, which is located at the side of the second robotic arm. The second robotic arm is used to pick up and transfer the glass plate that has been inspected on the inspection table to the feeding conveyor roller.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] This invention stacks glass plates to be inspected on a loading platform. A dual-axis moving mechanism drives a suction plate to precisely pick up the glass plates from the stack and stably transport them to the loading conveyor roller. Then, a first robotic arm can clamp and transfer the glass plates to the inspection platform, effectively avoiding damage caused by manual handling. During the inspection process, four light source modules located around the inspection platform work together to provide a uniform and sufficient lighting environment for the vision inspection module, enabling the vision inspection module to comprehensively and clearly inspect the appearance defects on the glass plate surface, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of the inspection. After the inspection is completed, a second robotic arm can remove the inspected glass plate from the inspection platform, thus completing the unloading operation and effectively improving the automation level and production efficiency of the glass inspection process.

[0026] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides an automatic glass inspection device, including a feeding conveyor roller 1, a dual-axis moving mechanism 2, a suction plate 3, a first robotic arm 4, an inspection table 5, a light source module 6, a vision inspection module 7, and a second robotic arm 8. The feeding conveyor roller 1 has a feeding table 10 on its side, which is used to stack glass plates. The dual-axis moving mechanism 2 is located above the feeding conveyor roller 1. The suction plate 3 is connected to the movable end of the dual-axis moving mechanism 2 and is used to suction the glass plates onto the feeding conveyor roller 1. The inspection table 5 is located at the end of the feeding conveyor roller 1. The first robotic arm 4 is located between the feeding conveyor roller 1 and the inspection table 5. The first robotic arm 4 is used to clamp and transfer the glass plate on the feeding conveyor roller 1 to the inspection table 5. The vision inspection module 7 is located above the inspection table 5. The vision inspection module 7 is used to inspect the appearance of the glass plate located on the inspection table 5. The four light source modules 6 are arranged around the circumference of the inspection table 5. The light source modules 6 are used to provide light to the vision inspection module 7. The second robotic arm 8 is located at the side of the inspection table 5. The second robotic arm 8 is used to remove the glass plate that has been inspected from the inspection table 5. The glass plates to be inspected are stacked on the loading platform 10. The dual-axis moving mechanism 2 drives the suction plate 3 to accurately pick up the glass plates from the stacked position and stably transport them to the loading conveyor roller 1. Then, the first robotic arm 4 can clamp and transfer the glass plates to the inspection table 5, effectively avoiding damage caused by manual handling. Next, the four light source modules 6 located around the inspection table 5 work together to provide a uniform and sufficient lighting environment for the vision inspection module 7, so that the vision inspection module 7 can comprehensively and clearly inspect the appearance defects on the surface of the glass plates, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of the inspection. Finally, after the inspection is completed, the second robotic arm 8 can remove the inspected glass plates from the inspection table 5, thereby completing the unloading operation and effectively improving the automation level and production efficiency of the glass inspection process.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, further, both the first robotic arm 4 and the second robotic arm 8 are provided with a clamping claw mechanism 41 at their ends. The clamping claw mechanism 41 includes a mounting base 411, a linear motion module 412, a fixed clamping plate 413, and a movable clamping plate 414. The linear motion module 412 is mounted on the mounting base 411, the fixed clamping plate 413 is located at the side end of the linear motion module 412, and the movable clamping plate 414 is located at the movable end of the linear motion module 412. A clamping gap is formed between the movable clamping plate 414 and the fixed clamping plate 413. The linear motion module 412 is used to drive the movable clamping plate 414 to move toward or away from the fixed clamping plate 413 to adjust the size of the clamping gap. When the first robotic arm 4 needs to pick up the glass plate from the feeding conveyor roller 1 and place it on the inspection table 5, the linear motion module 412 can drive the movable clamping plate 414 to expand outward to form a sufficient clamping gap, so as to smoothly clamp the edge of the glass plate. Then the movable clamping plate 414 moves inward and, together with the fixed clamping plate 413, applies an appropriate clamping force to achieve a stable clamping of the glass plate and prevent it from falling accidentally during the picking process.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the dual-axis moving mechanism 2 further includes a lateral moving module 21 and a lifting moving module 22. The movable end of the lateral moving module 21 is connected to the lifting moving module 22, and the movable end of the lifting moving module 22 is connected to the suction plate 3. Through the lateral moving module 21, the suction plate 3 can move along the lateral direction of the feeding conveyor roller 1, thereby aligning with the correct position of the glass plate to be picked up. After the lateral positioning is completed, the lifting moving module 22 drives the suction plate 3 to move downwards, making it contact the surface of the glass plate, and using the suction force to achieve stable suction of the glass plate.

[0030] like Figure 2As shown, the light source module 6 further includes an LED light source 61, a lifting adjustment component 62, and a telescopic adjustment component 63. The lifting adjustment component 62 is located on the side wall of the detection stage 5 and is connected to the telescopic adjustment component 63. The telescopic adjustment component 63 is connected to the LED light source 61 and is used to adjust the lateral distance between the LED light source 61 and the glass plate. The lifting adjustment component 62 allows the LED light source 61 to be adjusted vertically, maintaining an appropriate vertical distance between the light source height and the glass plate surface. The telescopic adjustment component 63 can adjust the horizontal position of the LED light source to adapt to the width of different sized glass plates and the detection area, ensuring that the illumination range covers the entire surface of the glass plate to be tested, while avoiding excessively bright or shadowed areas. This optimizes the illumination conditions of the LED light source 61, improves the imaging quality and stability of the visual inspection module 7, and thus enhances the accuracy and efficiency of the glass plate appearance defect detection process.

[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, the inner walls of the fixed clamping plate 413 and the movable clamping plate 414 are provided with flexible rubber pads 415. The flexible rubber pads 415 can improve the stability of the glass plate during the clamping process and prevent slippage.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, it further includes a feeding conveyor roller 9, which is located at the side end of the second robotic arm 8. The second robotic arm 8 is used to clamp and transfer the glass plate that has been tested on the testing table 5 to the feeding conveyor roller 9.

[0033] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this 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 of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
