Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of skills assessment and training, and in particular to an industrial vision operation and maintenance platform training device. Background Technology

[0002] Intelligent manufacturing has injected new vitality into traditional industries, driving their transformation and upgrading towards digitalization and intelligence. For example, the traditional machinery manufacturing industry has transformed from a labor-intensive to a technology-intensive industry by introducing intelligent manufacturing technologies such as CNC technology and the Industrial Internet, thereby increasing the industry's added value and competitiveness.

[0003] The advantages of intelligent manufacturing simulation teaching lie in its ability to improve students' practical skills and cultivate their innovative spirit, while also reducing teaching costs and increasing teaching efficiency. Through a combination of physical objects and simulations, students can gain a deeper understanding of the operating principles and control strategies of intelligent manufacturing, master practical operational skills, and lay a solid foundation for their future work and studies.

[0004] However, there is currently a lack of mature training and assessment equipment for automation systems that integrate industrial vision. This results in students lacking simulation assessment equipment for practical operation based on actual situations. Therefore, how to effectively train students' hands-on skills, closely align with production realities, and actively cultivate intelligent manufacturing talents has become an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an industrial vision operation and maintenance platform training device to realize training and assessment based on the industrial vision operation and maintenance platform, and effectively combine theory and practice. This patent adopts an automation system technology that integrates industrial vision. Compared with actual CNC machining equipment, it greatly reduces the volume through structural optimization and the overall equipment cost is low.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] An industrial vision operation and maintenance platform training device includes an operating table, a sorting mechanism, a conveyor line, and a detection platform. The sorting mechanism, conveyor line, and detection platform are all mounted on the operating table, with the sorting mechanism positioned directly above the conveyor line and detection platform. The conveyor line and detection platform are arranged adjacent to each other. The conveyor line is used to smoothly move the workpiece to be inspected, and the detection platform is used to place the workpiece to be inspected. The sorting mechanism includes a gantry-structured three-coordinate module, a suction cup assembly, a vision camera assembly, and a line laser profilometer. The suction cup assembly, vision camera assembly, and line laser profilometer are all fixedly connected to the free end of the three-coordinate module. The vision camera assembly is used to capture images of the workpiece to be inspected, and the line laser profilometer is used to scan the flatness of the workpiece to be inspected on the conveyor line. The three-coordinate module drives the suction cup assembly to grab the workpiece to be inspected from the conveyor line and place it on the detection platform.

[0008] As can be seen, in the above technical solution, the workpiece to be inspected is placed on the conveyor line. At this time, the coordinate measuring machine (CMM) module drives the line laser profilometer to move directly above the conveyor line. As the conveyor line moves smoothly, the line laser profilometer scans the flatness of the workpiece on the conveyor line. Then, the CMM module drives the suction cup assembly to grab the workpiece on the conveyor line and place it on the inspection platform. At this time, the CMM module drives the vision camera assembly to photograph and inspect the workpiece on the inspection platform, and sorts it according to the condition of the workpiece. This enables training and assessment based on the industrial vision operation and maintenance platform, effectively combining theory and practice. This patent adopts an automated system technology that integrates industrial vision. Compared with actual CNC machining equipment, it greatly reduces the volume through structural optimization, resulting in low overall equipment cost. It is not only low-cost but also highly practical for teaching.

[0009] According to the above technical solution, preferably, the three-coordinate module includes two sets of symmetrically arranged Y-axis adjustment units, X-axis adjustment units, Z-axis adjustment units, and a stage. The Y-axis adjustment unit drives the X-axis adjustment unit, Z-axis adjustment unit, and stage to slide synchronously along the Y-axis. The X-axis adjustment unit drives the Z-axis adjustment unit and stage to slide vertically. The Z-axis adjustment unit drives the stage to adjust vertically. The suction cup assembly, the vision camera assembly, and the line laser profilometer are fixed on the stage.

[0010] It can be seen that in the above technical solution, the Y-axis adjustment unit, X-axis adjustment unit and Z-axis adjustment unit can realize three-dimensional high-precision adjustment of the stage.

[0011] According to the above technical solution, preferably, the Y-axis adjustment unit, the X-axis adjustment unit and the Z-axis adjustment unit all include a motor, a slide rail, a driving wheel, a driven wheel, a transmission belt and a slide table. The motor is fixedly connected to the end of the slide rail. The driving wheel and the driven wheel are rotatably connected to the two ends of the slide rail through bearings. The transmission belt is sleeved on the driving wheel and the driven wheel. The motor drives the driving wheel to rotate, and the driving wheel drives the transmission belt to reciprocate. The slide table is fixedly connected to the transmission belt.

[0012] According to the above technical solution, preferably, the conveyor line drives the workpiece to be tested to move smoothly along the Y direction.

[0013] As can be seen, in the above technical solution, once the coordinate measuring machine module moves the line laser profilometer to directly above the conveyor line, the flatness of the workpiece to be inspected can be quickly scanned simply by the conveyor line moving smoothly. The scanning accuracy is high.

[0014] According to the above technical solution, preferably, the suction cup assembly includes a stepper motor and a suction cup. The main body of the stepper motor is fixedly connected to the stage, and the suction cup is fixedly connected to the free end of the stepper motor. The suction cup is used to adsorb the workpiece to be inspected.

[0015] As can be seen, in the above technical solution, the stepper motor drives the suction cup to move up and down further, which can further improve the operating accuracy.

[0016] According to the above technical solution, preferably, it also includes a detection camera, which is fixed above the sorting mechanism, the conveyor line and the detection platform by a bracket, and is used to detect the position of the workpiece to be detected.

[0017] According to the above technical solution, preferably, it also includes a labeling mechanism, which includes a 3D camera and a workpiece box to be inspected. The workpiece box to be inspected is placed on the operating table and is used to hold different types of workpieces to be inspected. The 3D camera is fixedly set directly above the workpiece box to be inspected and is used to acquire images of the workpieces to be inspected.

[0018] As can be seen, in the above technical solution, the 3D camera can capture the RGB image and depth image of the workpiece to be inspected to obtain the image source, which is convenient for using mature annotation software to annotate and identify the workpiece to be inspected.

[0019] According to the above technical solution, preferably, it also includes multiple sorting boxes, which are arranged on the rear side of the detection platform for classifying and placing different types of workpieces to be detected.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0021] (1) The workpiece to be inspected is placed on the conveyor line. At this time, the coordinate measuring machine module drives the line laser profilometer to move directly above the conveyor line. As the conveyor line moves smoothly, the line laser profilometer scans the flatness of the workpiece to be inspected on the conveyor line. Then, the coordinate measuring machine module drives the suction cup assembly to grab the workpiece to be inspected on the conveyor line and place it on the inspection platform. At this time, the coordinate measuring machine module drives the vision camera assembly to take pictures of the workpiece to be inspected on the inspection platform and sort it according to the condition of the workpiece to be inspected. This realizes the training and assessment based on the industrial vision operation and maintenance platform, effectively combining theory and practice.

[0022] (2) This patent adopts an automated system technology that integrates industrial vision. Compared with actual CNC machining equipment, it greatly reduces the volume through structural optimization, resulting in low overall equipment cost.
