Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of aluminum bottle cap processing, in particular to a visual inspection device for a cap aligner. Background Technique

[0002] On the processing assembly line, the inspection of the inner sealing lining of aluminum bottle caps is crucial, which is related to the final sealing quality and shelf life of the products. The inspection equipment usually adopts high-precision automation devices, such as industrial cameras equipped with intelligent vision recognition systems. When the bottle caps are moving rapidly on the conveyor belt, the camera instantaneously captures high-definition images of the lining from multiple angles, and uses preset image algorithms to accurately analyze whether there are defects such as wrinkles, bubbles, cracks or uneven materials on the surface of the lining to ensure the sealing integrity. At the same time, there is also a method of pressure difference detection, by pumping air or inflating the simulated bottle body after sealing, and monitoring the pressure change to judge the sealing performance of the lining. Once the pressure fluctuation exceeds the threshold, the bottle cap is immediately marked as unqualified.

[0003] The inventor found the following problems in the prior art during the implementation of the utility model: 1. For the layout of the inspection equipment and the assembly line, most of them do not consider the convenience of recycling. There is a lack of an effective connection mechanism between the inspection station and the potential recycling station. After the inspection of the bottle caps and linings, manual recycling is required, and they cannot be directly connected to the automated recycling process. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a visual inspection device for a cap aligner to solve the problem that after the inspection of the bottle caps and linings as mentioned in the above background technique, manual recycling is required and they cannot be directly connected to the automated recycling process. To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A visual inspection device for a cap aligner, including a housing, and a recycling box is welded below the housing;

[0005] Above the interior of the housing, a camera vision detector is installed by screws, above the housing, a pneumatic valve is installed by screws, and a guiding pipe penetrates through the interior of the housing; [[ID=2C]]

[0006] On both sides of the interior of the recycling box, a first fixing port and a second fixing port are respectively opened. A fixing plate is fitted inside the first fixing port, and a discharge port is opened below the recycling box.

[0007] Further preferably, on both sides in front of the housing, there are "C"-shaped grooves, and at the connection end of the housing and the recycling box, there is an "L"-shaped outer edge opening.

[0008] Further preferably, the pneumatic valve and the guiding pipe are connected by a pipeline, and one end of the guiding pipe is configured as a circular opening, and its diameter gradually narrows along the extending direction of the pipe body.

[0009] More preferably, the inlet side edge of the recycling box is flush with the inside of the shell, and the main structure of the recycling box is composed of two cylindrical sections, with the connection between the two cylindrical sections being constricted, and the outer diameter of the lower cylindrical section being smaller than that of the upper cylindrical section.

[0010] More preferably, the external structural dimensions of the fixing plate are consistent with the internal structural dimensions of the first fixing port.

[0011] More preferably, the external structural dimensions of the fixing plate are consistent with the internal structural dimensions of the second fixing port.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] In this invention, based on the original process, the equipment layout is adjusted to establish a direct automated connection mechanism between the detection station and the recycling station. When the camera vision detector determines that the bottle cap does not meet the standard, the unqualified bottle cap is directly and accurately transported from the pneumatic rejection station to the recycling area, reducing the manual intervention link, greatly speeding up the recycling speed, adapting to higher production rhythm, and avoiding production line stagnation caused by slow manual sorting.

[0020] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a visual inspection device for a lid sorting machine, including a housing 1, and a recycling box 2 is welded below the housing 1;

[0022] A camera vision detector 102 is installed on the inner upper plate of the housing 1 by screws, a pneumatic valve 101 is installed above the housing 1 by screws, and a guiding tube 103 penetrates through the housing 1;

[0023] On both sides inside the recycling box 2, a first fixing port 201 and a second fixing port 204 are respectively opened. A fixing plate 202 is fitted inside the first fixing port 201, and a discharge port 203 is opened below the recycling box 2.

[0024] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, on both sides in front of the housing 1, there are "C"-shaped grooves, and an "L"-shaped outer edge is formed at the connection end of the housing 1 and the recycling box 2.

[0025] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the pneumatic valve 101 and the guiding tube 103 are connected by a pipeline, and one end of the guiding tube 103 is configured as a circular opening, and its diameter gradually narrows along the extending direction of the tube body.

[0026] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the edge of one side of the feed port of the recycling box 2 is flush with the inside of the housing `, and the main structure of the recycling box 2 is composed of two cylindrical sections up and down. The connection part of the two cylindrical sections is in a constricted shape, and the outer diameter of the lower cylindrical section is smaller than that of the upper cylindrical section.

[0027] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the external structure size of the fixing plate 202 is consistent with the internal structure size of the first fixing port 201.

[0028] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the external structure size of the fixing plate 202 is consistent with the internal structure size of the second fixing port 204.

[0029] The usage method and advantages of the present utility model: For this visual inspection device of the lid sorting machine, during use, the working process is as follows:

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, when the bottle caps, arranged by the dial-type cap sorter, are moved to the detection switch assembly station, the detection switch detects the bottle cap and sends a signal. The dial continues to rotate, and the bottle cap detected by the detection switch rotates to the camera vision detector 102. After receiving the signal from the detection switch, the camera vision detector 102 automatically starts, takes a picture, and confirms whether the bottle cap meets the standard by comparing it with a standard image. If it does not meet the standard image, when the bottle cap is moved to the pneumatic rejection station, the pneumatic valve 101 opens. Non-compliant bottle caps are blown out of the dial by the guide tube 103 and blown into the recycling box 2. They enter the bottom of the recycling box 2 through the pipe and are limited by the fixing plate 202 to prevent the bottle caps inside from falling out of the discharge port 203. When they need to be removed, simply pull the fixing plate 202 horizontally so that the fixing plate 202 is pulled out of the first fixing port 201 and the second fixing port 204 in sequence. If the captured image matches the standard image, the pneumatic valve 101 will not be activated, and the bottle cap will be pushed out of the cap sorter by the dial to enter the next process.
