[0009] A computer monitor, used for displaying data, is mounted on the outside of the upper test fixture;

[0010] The vertical adjustment mechanism is installed inside the upper test frame;

[0011] The carrier mechanism, used to support and adjust the product, is located inside the upper test frame;

[0012] A CCD camera and a shape measurement sensor are mounted on a vertical adjustment mechanism. The CCD camera is used to photograph the product to detect gaps and appearance defects, and the shape measurement sensor is used to detect the product height.

[0013] Preferably, the lower test frame is equipped with casters at all four corners of its bottom; the four feet can be retracted, and the four casters are in contact with the ground, facilitating overall movement.

[0014] Preferably, the vertical adjustment mechanism includes a vertical electric lead screw slide, which is vertically installed on the left inner wall of the upper test frame. A support frame is installed on the vertical electric lead screw slide, and the CCD camera is mounted on the support frame.

[0015] Preferably, a linear motor is mounted on the shape measuring sensor, and the linear motor is mounted on the support frame by screws.

[0016] Preferably, the carrier mechanism includes a front-to-back adjustable electric lead screw slide, a left-to-right adjustable electric lead screw slide, and a platform. The front-to-back adjustable electric lead screw slide is installed on the bottom inner wall of the upper test frame, the left-to-right adjustable electric lead screw slide is disposed on the front-to-back adjustable electric lead screw slide, and the platform is disposed on the left-to-right adjustable electric lead screw slide.

[0017] Preferably, the plurality of said push-button switches include a start button, an emergency stop button, a reset button, and a power button.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the universal appearance inspection device described in this utility model are as follows:

[0019] In this solution, the operator places the product into the platform on the carrier mechanism and presses the start button to begin operation. The electric lead screw slide, which is adjusted forward and backward, and the platform, along with the electric lead screw slide, moves the product to a position below the CCD camera. The CCD camera takes pictures to detect gaps and appearance defects. The electric lead screw slide, which is adjusted left and right, moves the product to the shape measurement position via the platform. The shape measurement sensor detects the product height and sends the detection results to the computer monitor.

[0020] This solution uses a vertical electric lead screw slide table with a support frame to drive a CCD camera for height adjustment, and a linear motor to drive a shape measurement sensor for height adjustment, which facilitates the inspection of products of different sizes;

[0021] This invention has a simple structure and can automatically detect the shape and height of products. By adjusting the height of the CCD camera and the shape measurement sensor, products of different sizes can be detected. Attached Figure Description
