[0022] Example 1
[0023] like Figure 1-4 The image shown is the first embodiment of this utility model, which provides a visual inspection device for solar cells, including...
[0024] The main unit 1 includes a vision inspection machine body 101, a base 102 disposed at the bottom of the vision inspection machine body 101, and a moving component 103 disposed on the surface of the base 102.

The shock absorption component 203 absorbs and reduces the impact of external vibrations on the device, ensuring stability and accuracy during inspection and movement.
[0027] Example 2
[0028] Reference Figure 4 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment.
[0029] In this embodiment, the movable component 103 includes a pull rod 1031 disposed on the front of the base 102, movable slots 1032 opened on both sides of the front of the base 102, and a placement slot 1033 opened on the back of the inner cavity of the movable slot 1032. The rear end of the pull rod 1031 extends into the inner cavity of the placement slot 1033 and is slidably connected to its inner cavity.
[0030] The movable component 103 also includes a slide groove 1034 opened on both sides of the pull rod 1031, an anti-detachment block 1035 slidably connected to the inner cavity of the slide groove 1034, both ends of the anti-detachment block 1035 being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 1032, and universal wheels provided around the bottom of the base 102, with brake pads provided on the surface of the universal wheels.
[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the pull rod 1031 provides a point of force for manual pulling, facilitating the movement of the entire detection device. The movable groove 1032 and the placement groove 1033 provide sliding space for the pull rod 1031, ensuring its stability and smoothness during movement. The anti-detachment block 1035 prevents the pull rod 1031 from detaching from the movable groove 1032 during sliding, ensuring the integrity and stability of the moving component 103.

[0032] Example 3
[0033] Reference Figure 3This is the third embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the first two embodiments.
[0034] In this embodiment, the clamping assembly 202 includes a hollow plate 2021 fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the top of the support plate 201, a clamping plate 2022 slidably connected to the front and rear ends of the top of the support plate 201, a threaded rod 2023 movably connected to the inner cavity of the hollow plate 2021 via a bearing, a threaded sleeve 2024 threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod 2023, the left end of the threaded sleeve 2024 penetrating the hollow plate 2021 and fixedly connected to the clamping plate 2022, and a rotating handle 2025 disposed between the two hollow plates 2021. The ends of the two threaded rods 2023 that are close to each other both penetrate the hollow plate 2021 and are fixedly connected to the rotating handle 2025, and the threads on the surfaces of the two threaded rods 2023 are arranged in opposite directions.
[0035] The shock absorption assembly 203 includes a buffer assembly 2031 disposed around the bottom of the inner cavity of the base 102. The buffer assembly 2031 includes a spring and a damper, and the top and bottom of the spring and the damper are fixedly connected to the side of the base 102 and the support plate 201 that are close to each other. It also includes anti-detachment grooves 2032 opened on the front and back of the support plate 201, and anti-detachment plates 2033 fixedly connected to the front and back of the inner cavity of the base 102. The anti-detachment plates 2033 engage with the inner cavity of the anti-detachment grooves 2032.
[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, the hollow plate 2021 provides installation space for the threaded rod 2023 and the threaded sleeve 2024, and serves as a sliding guide for the clamping plate 2022. Driven by the threaded rod 2023, the clamping plate 2022 can move towards the center to clamp the visual inspection machine body 101, ensuring stability during the inspection process. The threaded rod 2023 and the threaded sleeve 2024 achieve synchronous movement of the clamping plate 2022 through a threaded connection. The rotating handle 2025 facilitates the operator to rotate the threaded rod 2023, thereby controlling the movement of the clamping plate 2022. The spring and damper of the buffer assembly 2031 can absorb and disperse the vibration generated by the device during movement or operation, protecting the visual inspection machine body 101 and other precision components from damage. The anti-disengagement groove 2032 and the anti-disengagement plate 2033 work together to prevent the support plate 201 from separating from the base 102 during vibration, ensuring the overall stability of the device.
[0037] In use, the visual inspection machine body 101 can utilize computer and imaging equipment to simulate the processing functions of the human eye and brain, performing image analysis, processing, and inspection of solar cells, achieving efficient and accurate inspection of solar cells. When it is necessary to adjust the usage position of the visual inspection machine body 101, first move the brake pads to release the locking effect on the universal wheels, and pull the lever 1031 forward to move it out of the interior of the base 102 until the anti-detachment block 1035 is at the rear end of the inner cavity of the slide groove 1034. At this time, due to the large inner space of the movable groove 1032, the angle of the lever 1031 can be adjusted. The operator can adjust the usage position of the visual inspection machine body 101 by pulling the lever 1031. During the movement, the two clamping plates 2022 cooperate to clamp the visual inspection machine body 101 to prevent its position from shifting. The damper and spring of the buffer component 2031 cooperate to buffer the vibration generated during the movement. After the movement is completed, all components can be restored.
