Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts testing technology, and in particular to a micro-hole testing device for automotive camera brackets. Background Technology
[0002] The micro-hole design of the automotive camera bracket is used for installing, fixing, and adjusting the camera, as well as for heat dissipation and waterproofing, emphasizing concealment, sealing, and durability. The micro-holes serve as mounting holes and positioning holes, using high-strength materials and surface treatments to ensure bracket stability and adjustable camera field of view, while also considering aesthetics and practicality. After the micro-holes in the automotive camera bracket are manufactured, inspectors need to use a fixing fixture with a laser sensor to check whether the micro-holes are properly connected.
[0003] Since the car camera brackets are still manually placed into the fixtures by staff, this requires the staff to have extensive operating experience. Otherwise, the laser sensor may easily misjudge the car camera brackets as unqualified products due to misplacement. This not only increases the wear and tear rate of the car camera brackets, but also increases the workload of the staff.
[0004] Therefore, a micro-hole detection device for automotive camera brackets is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a micro-hole inspection device for automotive camera brackets to solve the above-mentioned problems, thereby improving the problem that existing micro-hole inspection devices for automotive camera brackets have difficulty in ensuring that the workpiece is inspected under a preset environment.
[0006] This utility model achieves the above-mentioned objective through the following technical solution: a micro-hole detection device for an automotive camera bracket, comprising: a detection platform and a guiding mechanism, wherein a wireless controller and a fixing fixture are fixedly connected to the top of the detection platform, a laser emitter and a laser receiver are electrically connected to the surface of the wireless controller, and the laser receiver is threadedly connected to the bottom of the fixing fixture.
[0007] Preferably, the guiding mechanism includes a multi-section electric cylinder fixedly connected to the top of the detection platform, a connecting rod fixedly connected to the end of the output shaft of the multi-section electric cylinder, a positioning cover slidably connected to the surface of the connecting rod and disposed directly above the fixing fixture, a laser emitter threadedly connected to the top of the positioning cover, and a wireless pressure sensor fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting rod.
[0008] Preferably, the cross-sectional shape of the connection between the connecting rod and the positioning cover and the connecting rod is rectangular.
[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the connecting rod is threaded with a locking bolt, and the diameter of the head of the locking bolt is larger than the inner diameter of the connection between the positioning cover and the connecting rod.
[0010] Preferably, the positioning cover is manufactured using a 3D printing process, and the positioning cover is a component made of black PETG material.
[0011] Preferably, the surface of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to an internal threaded sleeve, and the inner side of the internal threaded sleeve is threadedly connected to a threaded post that is fixedly connected to the wireless pressure sensor.
[0012] Preferably, an adjusting block is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded column, and the cross-sectional shape of the adjusting block is a regular hexagonal prism.
[0013] Preferably, an audible and visual alarm is electrically connected to the top of the wireless controller.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. When the car camera bracket is not properly fixed inside the fixture, the guiding mechanism can detect it in advance before the laser emitter is moved to the detection position. The wireless controller then activates the audible and visual alarm to warn the staff that the car camera bracket has not been placed correctly. This solves the problem that existing micro-hole detection equipment for car camera brackets cannot ensure that the workpiece is detected in the preset environment.
[0016] 2. The positioning cover, designed with light-shielding material, allows the laser emitter, the car camera bracket, and the laser receiver to be enveloped in a dark environment after they fit together with the fixing fixture. This reduces the interference of external light on the laser, enabling the laser receiver to accurately receive the corresponding laser, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the micro-holes in the car camera bracket.

Detailed Implementation
[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] In practical implementation: such as Figure 1-4 As shown, a micro-hole detection device for an automotive camera bracket includes: a detection platform 100 and a guide mechanism 600. A wireless controller 200 and a fixing fixture 300 are fixedly connected to the top of the detection platform 100. A laser emitter 400 and a laser receiver 500 are electrically connected to the surface of the wireless controller 200. The laser receiver 500 is threadedly connected to the bottom of the fixing fixture 300.
[0024] It should be noted that the top of the fixing fixture 300 has a groove that matches the lower surface of the car camera bracket, and a detection hole is provided at the bottom of the groove. The emitting end of the laser emitter 400 and the receiving end of the laser receiver 500 are respectively set on both sides of the detection hole. The positioning cover 630 also needs to be customized to match the upper surface of the car camera bracket, and a threaded hole matching the detection end of the laser emitter 400 and a through hole matching the connecting rod 620 need to be opened on the top.
[0025] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the guiding mechanism 600 includes a multi-section electric cylinder 610 fixedly connected to the top of the detection platform 100. A connecting rod 620 is fixedly connected to the end of the output shaft of the multi-section electric cylinder 610. A positioning cover 630 is slidably connected to the surface of the connecting rod 620 and is located directly above the fixing fixture 300. A laser emitter 400 is threadedly connected to the top of the positioning cover 630. A wireless pressure sensor 640 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting rod 620.
[0026] The cross-sectional shape of the connection between the connecting rod 620 and the positioning cover 630 and the connecting rod 620 is rectangular. This can prevent the positioning cover 630 from rotating or tilting on the surface of the connecting rod 620, so as to ensure that the positioning cover 630 can drive the laser emitter 400 to move up and down in a straight line.
[0027] The bottom of the connecting rod 620 is threaded with a locking bolt 650. The diameter of the head of the locking bolt 650 is larger than the inner diameter of the connection between the positioning cover 630 and the connecting rod 620. When the operator needs to replace the positioning cover 630, the operator only needs to remove the locking bolt 650. At this time, the positioning cover 630 can be removed from the surface of the connecting rod 620. During the movement of the positioning cover 630 on the surface of the connecting rod 620, the locking bolt 650 can effectively limit the positioning cover 630 to the surface of the connecting rod 620, preventing the positioning cover 630 from becoming loose.
[0028] The positioning cover 630 is manufactured using 3D printing technology. The positioning cover 630 is a black PETG material component. When the positioning cover 630 is attached to the fixing fixture 300, it can cover the emitting end of the laser emitter 400, the car camera bracket, and the receiving end of the laser receiver 500 in a dark environment. This can reduce the interference of external light on the laser, so that the laser receiver 500 can accurately receive the corresponding laser, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the micro-holes of the car camera bracket.
[0029] The surface of the connecting rod 620 is fixedly connected to an internal threaded sleeve 660. The inner thread of the internal threaded sleeve 660 is connected to a threaded post 670 that is fixedly connected to the wireless pressure sensor 640. When the operator changes the positioning cover 630 to a different size, the operator can adjust the height of the wireless pressure sensor 640 by rotating the threaded post 670 to ensure that the wireless pressure sensor 640 can be adapted to the positioning cover 630 of a different size, thereby expanding the application range of the micro-hole detection device for the car camera bracket.
[0030] An adjusting block 680 is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded column 670. The cross-sectional shape of the adjusting block 680 is a regular hexagonal prism, which can reduce the difficulty for workers to rotate the threaded column 670.
[0031] The top of the wireless controller 200 is electrically connected to an audible and visual alarm 700, which can promptly alert inspectors to incorrect installation of the car camera bracket.
[0032] In use, the operator first places the car camera bracket into the fixing fixture 300, and then controls the multi-section electric cylinder 610 to retract via the wireless controller 200. The multi-section electric cylinder 610 moves the positioning cover 630 downward via the connecting rod 620 and the locking bolt 650. The positioning cover 630 then moves the laser emitter 400 downward. When the multi-section electric cylinder 610 moves to the preset height, the following will occur:
[0033] 1. Once the car camera bracket is correctly placed inside the fixing fixture 300, the positioning cover 630 can fit against the top of the fixing fixture 300. The operator can then control the laser emitter 400 to be turned on via the wireless controller 200. The laser emitter 400 emits a laser beam into the micro-hole on the car camera bracket. If the laser receiver 500 detects the laser beam, it indicates that the micro-hole on the car camera bracket is qualified.
[0034] 2. When the car camera bracket is incorrectly fixed inside the fixture 300, the positioning cover 630 will come into contact with the offset part of the car camera bracket before it comes into contact with the fixture 300. During the subsequent retraction of the multi-section electric cylinder 610, the wireless pressure sensor 640 will come into contact with the positioning cover 630. The wireless pressure sensor 640 will wirelessly transmit the pressure signal to the wireless controller 200. The wireless controller 200 will activate the audible and visual alarm 700 according to the preset program inside it, so as to warn the staff that the car camera bracket has not been placed correctly.
[0035] It should be noted that the wireless controller 200, laser transmitter 400, laser receiver 500, multi-section electric cylinder 610, wireless pressure sensor 640, and audible and visual alarm 700 mentioned above are all devices with relatively mature existing technologies. The specific models can be selected according to actual needs. At the same time, the wireless controller 200, laser transmitter 400, laser receiver 500, multi-section electric cylinder 610, wireless pressure sensor 640, and audible and visual alarm 700 can be powered by their built-in power supply or by AC mains power. The specific power supply method should be selected according to the situation, and will not be elaborated here.
[0036] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
