Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass inspection technology, and in particular to an angle adjustment fixture. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of the glass industry, the market's requirements for the quality and aesthetics of glass have become increasingly higher. This has led glass manufacturers to conduct multiple tests after the glass is formed in order to determine whether the glass products are qualified.

[0003] Research has found that current manufacturers typically use glass testing equipment to assist workers in glass inspection. This equipment usually places the glass at a fixed angle for inspection, and in some cases, the inspection angle can be adjusted manually or semi-automatically, combined with visual inspection. This requires frequent operation, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also leads to poor angle positioning accuracy, resulting in angle positioning errors and affecting the consistency of subsequent inspection results.

[0004] Furthermore, existing traditional glass testing equipment suffers from poor adaptability and low automation. It cannot dynamically adjust the angle according to the glass size or testing requirements, lacks an automated feedback mechanism, and is difficult to achieve closed-loop feedback. As a result, its efficiency in angle adjustment is low, and its angle positioning accuracy is also low. Utility Model Content

[0032] To explain in detail the technical content, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the following description is provided in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0033] Please refer to Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model discloses a new angle adjustment fixture, which can be effectively applied to the field of automotive glass inspection technology to automatically adjust the angle of the glass. It can effectively replace the traditional manual or semi-automatic glass angle adjustment method, thereby reducing the burden on workers and significantly improving the angle adjustment efficiency and angle positioning accuracy.

[0034] In this utility model, the angle adjustment fixture specifically includes: a main support 1 and a drive mechanism 2 disposed on the main support 1. The output shaft 22 of the drive mechanism 2 is connected to a mounting frame 3, and the mounting frame 3 is used to load glass. The drive mechanism 2 is used to drive the mounting frame 3 to rotate around the axis of the output shaft 22 of the drive mechanism 2.

[0035] A key feature of this application is that, compared to traditional manual or semi-automatic methods for adjusting the glass angle, the angle adjustment fixture designed in this invention uses a drive mechanism 2 on the main support 1 to drive the mounting frame 3 to rotate around the output shaft 22 of the drive mechanism 2, thereby changing its angle relative to the horizontal plane. At this time, the operator can specifically place the glass on the mounting frame 3 so that the glass rotates together with the mounting frame 3 as it moves, thus changing the angle of the glass.

[0036] It should be noted that in actual production, in order to meet the high-precision optical inspection requirements for glass, when using the drive mechanism 2 to drive and adjust the glass angle, it is necessary to ensure that the glass angle obtains high positioning accuracy, so as to ensure the consistency of subsequent inspection. For this reason, in this embodiment, the angle adjustment fixture is also specifically provided with a control mechanism to establish a communication connection with the drive mechanism 2, so as to control the start and stop of the drive mechanism 2 through the control mechanism, thereby realizing the adjustment and control of the rotation angle of the mounting frame 3.

[0037] In addition, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the main support 1 may specifically include two uprights 11 arranged opposite to each other, and the mounting frame 3 is disposed between the two uprights 11, with both ends of the mounting frame 3 rotatably connected to the two uprights 11 respectively. In order to ensure the structural installation stability of the two uprights 11 arranged opposite to each other, a first horizontal frame 12 is connected to the bottom of each of the two uprights 11. The first horizontal frame 12 extends along the horizontal width direction to support the uprights 11 when the angle adjustment fixture is set on the horizontal ground. At the same time, in this embodiment, a second horizontal frame 13 is also provided between the two uprights 11. The second horizontal frame 13 extends along the horizontal length direction, and both ends of the second horizontal frame 13 are connected to the two uprights 11 respectively to limit the horizontal distance between the two uprights 11.

[0038] Of course, see further. Figure 1 As can be seen, in order to facilitate the transfer and use of the angle adjustment fixture, in this embodiment, a plurality of casters 9 are provided at the bottom of the main support 1 of the angle adjustment fixture, that is, a plurality of casters 9 are provided at the bottom of the first horizontal frame 12, so as to ensure that the operator can push the main support 1 to move; wherein, at least one caster 9 is also provided with a locking device 91, which is used to lock the rotation of the caster 9. When moving to a suitable work position, the operator can open the locking device 91 to lock the caster 9.

[0039] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, in order to obtain better control effect, in actual application, the above-mentioned control mechanism may specifically include: a controller, an encoder and an angle sensor, and the controller can communicate with the motor 21, the angle sensor and the encoder respectively, so as to automatically control the drive mechanism 2 through the PID (proportional-integral-derivative) control algorithm, and at the same time perform error correction to realize automatic angle adjustment.

[0040] In other words, in this embodiment, the controller in the control mechanism can be used to control the drive mechanism 2 to drive the mounting frame 3 to rotate around the output shaft 22 axis of the drive mechanism 2. At this time, the encoder can feed back the rotation angle of the output shaft 22 to the controller in real time, and the angle sensor can verify the real-time rotation angle of the mounting frame 3 and feed back the real-time rotation angle to the controller. Based on the above information feedback mechanism, the controller can perform high-precision control on the start and stop of the drive mechanism 2 so that the drive mechanism 2 can drive and correct the rotation angle of the mounting frame 3, thereby effectively reducing the angle error and improving the angle positioning accuracy.

[0041] Accordingly, such as Figure 1As shown, in practical applications, in order to facilitate operators to understand the operating data of the angle adjustment fixture in real time and to facilitate sending control commands to the controller, the control mechanism of the angle adjustment fixture designed in this utility model can also be equipped with a visual touch screen 4. The visual touch screen 4 can communicate with the controller, and the controller can send the real-time operating data of the equipment to the visual touch screen 4 for visual display. The relevant visual display form is not particularly limited, and it can be an image, a table or other information display form.

[0042] Meanwhile, based on the aforementioned visual touch screen 4, when the operator needs to send relevant control commands to the controller, the operator can preset or dynamically adjust the target angle through the touch screen interface to send the relevant control commands to the controller. At this time, the controller can receive the aforementioned control commands and correspondingly control the drive mechanism 2 to adjust the angle of the mounting frame 3 and the glass.

[0043] In addition, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, to ensure the driving stability of the drive mechanism 2, the control mechanism of the angle adjustment fixture can specifically include: a motor 21 and a bearing seat 23 mounted on the main support 1. The bearing seat 23 can be specifically installed on the top of the two columns of the main support 1. The bearing seat 23 contains bearings so that both ends of the mounting frame 3 can be rotatably connected to the bearings, thereby ensuring the rotation of the mounting frame 3 relative to the main support 1. Of course, to drive the rotation of the mounting frame 3, as... Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the output shaft 22 of the motor 21 can pass through the bearing of a bearing seat 23 on the main bracket 1 and be connected to the mounting frame 3.

[0044] In addition, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, in this invention, after the mounting frame 3 and the glass mounted on the mounting frame 3 are driven to rotate to a suitable angle, in order to lock the rotation angle, a corner plate 5 is also provided on the mounting frame 3, and a corresponding locking groove is provided on the column of the main support 1. The corner plate 5 is provided with an arc-shaped through groove 51 that matches the locking groove. After the mounting frame 3 is adjusted to a suitable angle, the locking member 6 passes through the arc-shaped through groove 51 on the corner plate 5 and connects and locks with the locking groove on the main support 1. That is, the locking member 6 locks the relative positional relationship between the mounting frame 3 and the main support 1, thereby locking the angle of the mounting frame 3. Specifically, the locking member 6 can be a Torx handle screw for locking. Of course, in some other embodiments, a locking member 6 with a suitable structure can also be used for locking. This invention does not impose any additional special limitations on the specific form of the locking member 6.

[0045] Accordingly, when the aforementioned mounting frame 3 and the glass set on the mounting frame 3 are driven to rotate to a suitable angle, considering their relatively heavy weight, in order to ensure structural stability and avoid angle errors, in this embodiment, a support member 8, such as a support plate, can also be set on the main support 1 of the angle adjustment fixture, so that one end of the support member 8 is rotatably connected to the column of the main support 1, and the other end of the support member 8 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 3, thereby using the support member 8 to support the mounting frame 3 and avoid uncontrollable angle deviations due to excessive weight.

[0046] Further reading Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, considering that the glass to be inspected may be large-format glass, in order to effectively support the glass, the angle adjustment fixture's angle frame is specifically configured to include: a middle frame 31 and four side frames 32. The four side frames 32 are connected end to end to form a rectangular outer frame. The middle frame 31 is located within the rectangular outer frame, and both ends of the middle frame 31 are respectively connected to two opposite side frames 32. At this time, multiple sliders 7 can be provided on the middle frame 31 and at least one side frame 32. The sliders 7 are slidably provided on the middle frame 31 and the side frames 32, and adjacent sliders 7 are spaced apart from each other, so as to support and hold glass of different sizes and shapes.

[0047] like Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, in order to effectively utilize the slider 7 to support and hold glass of different sizes and shapes, the slider 7 may specifically include a base plate 71, and a first extension 72 and a second extension 73 connected to the base plate 71. The first extension 72 and the second extension 73 are spaced apart from each other to form a slot with the base plate 71, thereby using the slot to match the middle frame 31 and the side frame 32, so that the slider 7 can slide on the middle frame 31 and the side frame 32.

[0048] See further Figure 4 As shown, when the slider 7 is actually installed, the extension direction of the base plate 71 of the slider 7 set on the middle frame 31 can be a first direction, and the extension direction of the base plate 71 of the slider 7 set on the side frame 32 can be a second direction. The first direction and the second direction are set at an angle; preferably, the second direction can be set perpendicular to the first direction.

[0049] In summary, the angle adjustment fixture designed in this invention can control the rotation of the glass to replace manual adjustment of its pitch angle, thereby meeting the operator's inspection needs. It offers high angle adjustment efficiency and high angle positioning accuracy, ensuring the consistency of subsequent inspection results. Furthermore, in some preferred embodiments, the control mechanism of this angle adjustment fixture can utilize a PID control algorithm for automated angle control, and it can use the slider 7 on the mounting frame 3 to support glass of different shapes and sizes for inspection, thus expanding its applicability. It has good prospects for promotion and application value.
