[0022] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.

[0023] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 4 As shown:

[0024] This utility model provides a rapid sorting device for automotive parts, including a first transmission frame 1, a second transmission frame 2, a rotating mechanism, a pushing mechanism, and an industrial camera 3.

A gantry frame 6 is provided on the first transmission frame 1, and a rotating shaft 7 is rotatably provided at the bottom of the gantry frame 6. A rotating mechanism is provided on the rotating shaft 7, and a limit rod 8 slides through the inner side of the rotating shaft 7. A mounting plate 9 is provided at the bottom end of the limit rod 8, and an industrial camera 3 is obliquely mounted on the inner side of the mounting plate 9. A pushing mechanism is provided on one side of the top of the first transmission frame 1, opposite to the second transmission frame 2.

[0025] The industrial camera 3 is used to transmit the acquired image information to the external control center. The external control center determines whether the automotive parts are qualified based on the acquired image information. The pushing mechanism is used to sort out the unqualified products that need to be sorted and push them onto the second conveyor belt 5 based on the judgment result of the control center.

The top of the limiting rod 8 passes through the gantry frame 6 and is provided with an anti-detachment plate 10.

[0028] The square through-slot allows the limiting rod 8 to move the mounting plate 9 vertically downward relative to the rotating shaft 7, thus adjusting the distance between the industrial camera 3 and the component according to the height of the component. On the other hand, the rotating shaft 7 rotates synchronously with the limiting rod 8, causing the limiting rod 8 to drive the industrial camera 3 to make a circular motion around the component through the mounting plate 9.

[0029] refer to Figure 4 A nut sleeve 11 is provided on the outer side of the rotating shaft 7. A positioning pin 12 is connected to the internal thread of the nut sleeve 11. One end of the positioning pin 12 extends to the inner side of the square through groove and abuts against the limiting rod 8. The other end of the positioning pin 12 is connected to a handwheel 13.

[0030] The positioning pin 12 can be screwed out of the nut sleeve 11 by rotating the handwheel 13, which facilitates the adjustment of the set height of the industrial camera 3.

[0031] refer to Figure 2 The rotating mechanism includes a motor 14, a turntable 15, a limit plate 16, a pivot shaft 17, and a grooved wheel 18.

[0032] Among them, the motor 14 drives the turntable 15 and the limit plate 16 to rotate. During the rotation of the turntable 15, the pull shaft 17 drives the grooved wheel 18 to rotate one-quarter of the circumference.

[0033] refer to Figure 2 The grooved wheel 18 is located below the turntable 15. Multiple sets of arc-shaped grooves 19 are circumferentially and equidistantly arranged on the outer side of the grooved wheel 18. A radial groove 20 is opened on the grooved wheel 18 between two adjacent sets of arc-shaped grooves 19. The radial groove 20 is used for the guide shaft 17 to be inserted.

[0034] The arc-shaped groove 19 and the radial groove 20 are each provided with four sets.

[0035] refer to Figure 2 The limit plate 16 has a clearance notch 21 on one side, and the dial shaft 17 is installed at the bottom of the turntable 15 and is positioned directly opposite the clearance notch 21.

[0036] In this way, when the notch 21 is used to allow the shaft 17 to be inserted into the radial groove 20, the groove wheel 18 is not restricted, and the shaft 17 can drive the groove wheel 18 to rotate.

[0037] refer to Figure 1 The feeding mechanism includes a vertical plate 22, a cylinder 23 and a push plate 24. A vertical plate 22 is provided on one side of the top of the first transmission frame 1. A cylinder 23 is installed through the vertical plate 22.
