[0073] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0074] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that when a component is considered to be "connected" to another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be a component that is centrally positioned therein. When a component is considered to be "set" on another component, it can be directly set on the other component or there may be a component that is centrally positioned therein.

[0075] Furthermore, terms such as "long," "short," "inner," and "outer" indicate orientation or positional relationships based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of describing this utility model and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have this specific orientation or operate in a specific orientational configuration. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations of this utility model.

[0076] Please refer to Figure 1-3 This utility model provides an automatic watch testing device with high integration and multifunctionality. The automatic watch testing device mainly consists of core components such as a base 1, a carrier 2, a transmission mechanism 3, a crown rotation testing module 4, an ALS testing module 5, a first DVI testing module 6, and a second DVI testing module 7.

[0077] In terms of structural layout, the conveying mechanism 3, the crown rotation test module 4, the ALS test module 5, the first DVI test module 6, and the second DVI test module 7 are all precisely positioned on the base 1, ensuring the stability and coordination of the entire testing machine structure. Furthermore, the crown rotation test module 4, the ALS test module 5, the first DVI test module 6, and the second DVI test module 7 are arranged scientifically and rationally along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 3 according to specific process requirements and testing procedures. This layout not only optimizes the testing process but also improves space utilization.

[0078] The carrier 2, as a key component carrying the watch to be tested, is securely mounted on the conveying mechanism 3. Its design fully considers the watch's fixation and positioning requirements, ensuring the watch's stability and accuracy during testing. The conveying mechanism 3 acts as a "transport messenger," using a precise transmission system to transport the carrier 2 and the watch it carries along a predetermined path, providing convenient conditions for subsequent tests.

[0079] In terms of functionality, each testing module performs its specific function and works collaboratively. Specifically, the crown rotation testing module 4 conducts specialized tests on the crown rotation function of the watch. By simulating rotation operations in actual use scenarios, it comprehensively evaluates the crown's rotation functionality, flexibility, smoothness, and durability. The ALS testing module 5 focuses on testing the light source signal of the ALS chip inside the watch. Using advanced detection technology and algorithms, it accurately measures and analyzes the light source signal emitted by the ALS chip to ensure the watch's normal display function under lighting conditions. The first DVI testing module 6 and the second DVI testing module 7 together form an important line of defense for the watch's appearance quality inspection. The first DVI testing module 6 mainly detects whether there are scratches on the CG (Cover Glass, the protective glass layer on the watch surface). Through high-precision image recognition and comparison technology, it can accurately identify minute scratches. The second DVI testing module 7 is responsible for detecting whether there are appearance defects such as dust or stains on the CG surface of the watch. Through specific light source illumination and image processing technology, it can clearly present the cleanliness of the CG surface, providing strong data support for the evaluation of the watch's appearance quality.

[0080] The automatic watch testing device proposed in this embodiment integrates key testing functions such as the crown rotation testing module 4, the ALS testing module 5, the first DVI testing module 6, and the second DVI testing module 7 into a single unit through a highly integrated design concept. This enables comprehensive, efficient, and accurate testing of the watch's functionality and appearance quality. This integrated design not only significantly improves testing efficiency and avoids the time wastage and inaccuracies caused by multiple watch transfers in traditional decentralized testing methods, but also ensures the stability and repeatability of the testing process through the orderly arrangement and automated operation of each testing module, reducing human interference and further improving the accuracy of the test results. Furthermore, the detailed testing functions of the first DVI testing module 6 and the second DVI testing module 7 allow for a more detailed evaluation of the watch's appearance quality, helping to promptly identify potential problems in the production process. This provides watch manufacturers with a powerful quality control tool, effectively improving product quality and production efficiency, and enhancing the company's market competitiveness.

[0081] Please refer to this again. Figure 1-2 In one embodiment of this invention, the automatic watch testing device is further equipped with a key component called a sealing cover 8.

[0082] The sealing cover 8 has an overall dome-shaped structure, and its shape and size are precisely designed to perfectly cover the base 1, forming a relatively independent and enclosed test space. The sealing cover 8 is made of a special alloy material with good sealing performance, stability and durability. It can not only effectively isolate the external environment from interference factors such as dust and moisture, but also provide a stable operating environment for the internal test module, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the test results.

[0083] The internal structure of the sealing cover 8 cleverly incorporates three partitions 9. These three partitions 9 are all made of high-strength, low-deformation engineering plastic, and their surfaces are finely polished to minimize their impact on light propagation and signal transmission during testing. The three partitions 9, arranged in a specific spatial layout, precisely divide the inner cavity of the sealing cover 8 into four independent compartments. This partitioning design not only makes full use of the internal space of the sealing cover 8 but also provides relatively independent working areas for each testing module, avoiding mutual interference between different testing modules.

[0084] Specifically, the four core testing components—crown rotation test module 4, ALS test module 5, first DVI test module 6, and second DVI test module 7—are precisely placed sequentially within their respective compartments according to their functional characteristics and testing process requirements. The size and shape of each compartment are custom-designed for the test modules placed within them, ensuring the stability of the installation and operation of the test modules. Furthermore, each compartment is equipped with corresponding power interfaces, data transmission interfaces, and other infrastructure, providing strong support for the normal operation of the test modules.

[0085] To ensure the smooth passage of the conveying mechanism 3 within the sealed enclosure 8 and the orderly connection between the various test modules, both the sealed enclosure 8 and the partition 9 are provided with through-holes through which the conveying mechanism 3 can pass. The shape and size of these through-holes have been precisely calculated and designed to ensure that the conveying mechanism 3 will not collide or rub against the sealed enclosure 8 and partition 9 when passing through them, thus guaranteeing the continuity and stability of the testing process. Simultaneously, special sealing materials are used at the edges of the through-holes to effectively prevent dust and moisture from the external environment from entering the sealed enclosure 8, further improving the sealing and stability of the testing environment.

[0086] Through the above design, the automatic watch testing device in this embodiment not only ensures the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the testing functions, but also has good sealing and stability, providing a more reliable and efficient testing platform for watch testing.

[0087] Please refer to Figure 3-4In one embodiment of this invention, the through-hole has been further optimized, and an intelligent control component, an automatic door 10, has been added.

[0088] The automatic door 10 is constructed entirely of high-strength, lightweight alloy material, with a finely treated anti-corrosion surface, resulting in excellent durability and stability. The drive system of the automatic door 10 integrates an advanced motor and transmission device, enabling precise and rapid opening and closing actions. Furthermore, to ensure the safety and reliability of the automatic door 10 during operation, it is equipped with comprehensive safety protection devices such as limit switches and anti-pinch sensors.

[0089] In terms of structural design, the automatic door 10 and the through-hole are seamlessly connected. When the automatic door 10 is closed, its body completely seals the through-hole. At this time, the carrier 2 located on the conveying mechanism 3 will be blocked by the automatic door 10 during its forward movement, thus preventing it from continuing to be conveyed downstream. This blocking mechanism can effectively control the flow rhythm of the carrier 2, ensuring that only carriers 2 that meet the conditions can enter the corresponding test compartment for testing during specific testing phases, avoiding testing chaos and errors caused by the disorderly flow of carriers 2.

[0090] When the testing process requires carrier 2 to continue downstream, the drive system of automatic door 10 receives a corresponding control signal, causing automatic door 10 to open rapidly. At this time, the through-hole is unobstructed, and carrier 2 located on the conveying mechanism 3 can pass through normally without hindrance, continuing to be conveyed to the downstream testing compartment or subsequent processes. This rapid response capability of automatic door 10 ensures the continuity and efficiency of the testing process, greatly improving the overall efficiency of watch testing.

[0091] Furthermore, the opening and closing status of the automatic door 10 is highly integrated with the control system of the entire automatic watch testing device. Through advanced sensor technology and intelligent algorithms, the control system can monitor the position of the vehicle 2, the testing progress, and other information in real time, and precisely control the opening and closing timing of the automatic door 10 according to the preset testing procedures and rules. For example, when a test task in a certain test compartment is completed, the control system will automatically issue a command to open the corresponding automatic door 10, allowing the vehicle 2 to enter the next test compartment; and when a new vehicle 2 is about to enter a certain test compartment, the control system will close the automatic door 10 of that compartment in advance to prepare for the upcoming test.

[0092] By setting an automatic door 10 at the through-hole, the automatic watch testing device in this embodiment not only achieves precise control over the flow of the carrier 2, but also improves the automation and intelligence of the testing process.

[0093] Please refer to this again. Figure 3-4 In one embodiment of this invention, the automatic door 10 is designed with more precision and innovation, and its core components include a drive cylinder 1001 and a light-shielding block 1002.

[0094] The drive cylinder 1001, serving as the power source for the automatic door 10, employs a high-precision, high-reliability pneumatic actuator. Its internal structure is rationally designed with excellent airtightness, ensuring precise and stable output driving force under stable input air pressure. The outer shell of the drive cylinder 1001 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy, ensuring structural robustness while reducing overall weight, facilitating installation and maintenance. Furthermore, to achieve precise control, the drive cylinder 1001 is equipped with advanced solenoid valves and position sensors, providing real-time feedback on the position information of the light-blocking block 1002 and making precise adjustments to its movements according to the instructions of the control system.

[0095] The light-shielding block 1002 is a key component for the automatic door 10 to achieve its opening and closing function. It is made of engineering plastic with excellent light-shielding properties and wear resistance. The shape and size of the light-shielding block 1002 are carefully designed to perfectly match the shape of the through-hole, ensuring that it effectively blocks light and external impurities from entering when closed, providing a relatively enclosed and stable space for the testing environment. The surface of the light-shielding block 1002 undergoes special treatment, resulting in a smooth and flat surface, reducing friction with the edge of the through-hole during opening and closing, and extending its service life.

[0096] In terms of connection, a reliable mechanical connection structure is adopted between the drive cylinder 1001 and the light-shielding block 1002. Through precise connectors and positioning devices, it is ensured that the driving force output by the drive cylinder 1001 can be accurately and stably transmitted to the light-shielding block 1002, thereby realizing the opening and closing action of the light-shielding block 1002 at the through-hole. Specifically, when the drive cylinder 1001 receives an opening command from the control system, its piston rod will quickly extend, pushing the light-shielding block 1002 upward, keeping the through-hole unobstructed, allowing the carrier 2 to pass smoothly; while when the drive cylinder 1001 receives a closing command, the piston rod will slowly retract, causing the light-shielding block 1002 to move downward, completely closing the through-hole and preventing the carrier 2 from continuing to move forward.

[0097] In addition, to further improve the stability and reliability of the automatic door 10, a buffer device is provided at the connection between the drive cylinder 1001 and the light-shielding block 1002. This buffer device can effectively absorb the impact force generated by the light-shielding block 1002 during the opening and closing process, reduce damage to the drive cylinder 1001 and the light-shielding block 1002, and also reduce the noise generated during the opening and closing process.

[0098] By adopting a design that combines the drive cylinder 1001 with the light-blocking block 1002, the automatic door 10 in this embodiment not only has the ability to open and close quickly and accurately, but also has good light-blocking performance and stability.

[0099] Please refer to this again. Figure 3-4 In one embodiment of this invention, a more comprehensive and innovative optimization design was carried out for the automatic door 10. In addition to the drive cylinder 1001 and the light-blocking block 1002, a key component, the light-blocking sponge 1003, was specially added.

[0100] The light-blocking sponge 1003, as a core element in improving the sealing performance of the automatic door 10, is made of a special sponge material with high elasticity, high density, and excellent light-blocking properties. This sponge material undergoes a special process, possessing not only good softness and resilience, allowing it to quickly deform under pressure to conform to irregular surfaces, but also resistance to aging and deformation during long-term use, maintaining stable performance. The light-blocking sponge 1003 is typically dark-colored to enhance its light absorption and blocking capabilities, ensuring that when the automatic door 10 is closed, it effectively blocks external light from entering, providing an absolutely dark and stable optical environment for testing.

[0101] In terms of installation, the light-blocking sponge 1003 is precisely positioned at the edge of the light-blocking block 1002. The installation process employs advanced bonding technology, using high-strength, aging-resistant special adhesive to firmly bond the light-blocking sponge 1003 to the edge of the light-blocking block 1002, ensuring that the light-blocking sponge 1003 will not detach or shift during the opening and closing of the automatic door 10. Furthermore, to further improve the installation accuracy and stability of the light-blocking sponge 1003, a precision positioning device is used during installation to accurately calibrate and fix its position.

[0102] When the automatic door 10 is closed, the light-blocking sponge 1003, with its high elasticity and softness, can achieve a tight and uniform fit with the inner wall of the through-hole. This tight fit not only effectively blocks light leakage and prevents external light from interfering with the testing environment, thus ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the test results, but also plays a certain role in sealing, preventing external dust, moisture, and other impurities from entering the testing compartment, providing a clean and dry operating environment for the testing equipment, and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0103] Furthermore, to ensure that the light-blocking sponge 1003 maintains good performance under different environmental conditions, the influence of environmental factors was fully considered during the design and material selection process. For example, for potential high-temperature and high-humidity environments, sponge materials with good high-temperature and moisture resistance were selected, and a special surface treatment process was used to improve the corrosion resistance and wear resistance of the light-blocking sponge 1003. Simultaneously, the control system design of the automatic door 10 also incorporates corresponding protection mechanisms. When environmental parameters such as temperature and humidity are detected to exceed normal ranges, an alarm can be issued promptly and appropriate measures can be taken to ensure that the performance of the light-blocking sponge 1003 is not affected.

[0104] By adding the innovative design of light-blocking sponge 1003, the automatic door 10 in this embodiment has significantly improved in terms of light-blocking and sealing performance.

[0105] Please refer to this again. Figure 3 In one embodiment of this invention, a key component, a lifting mechanism 11, is added to further improve the functionality and testing accuracy of the automatic watch testing device.

[0106] The lifting mechanism 11, as an important component of the automatic watch testing device in this embodiment, has a number that is closely related to the needs of specific testing modules. Specifically, one lifting mechanism 11 is precisely configured in each of the compartments containing the first DVI testing module 6 and the second DVI testing module 7. This layout design fully considers the working characteristics and space requirements of different testing modules, ensuring that the lifting mechanism 11 can work efficiently in collaboration with the corresponding testing module.

[0107] From the installation position, the lifting mechanism 11 is securely mounted on the base 1. The base 1, as the basic support structure of the automatic watch testing device, possesses good stability and load-bearing capacity, providing a reliable mounting platform for the lifting mechanism 11. During installation, high-precision positioning and fixing technology is employed to ensure a firm and reliable connection between the lifting mechanism 11 and the base 1, with positional accuracy meeting design requirements. This not only guarantees the stability of the lifting mechanism 11 during operation but also provides a precise reference for subsequent lifting operations.

[0108] The core function of the lifting mechanism 11 is to lift the carrier 2 located on the conveying mechanism 3. When the carrier 2 moves with the conveying mechanism 3 to the test compartment where the first DVI test module 6 or the second DVI test module 7 is located, the lifting mechanism 11 will initiate the lifting action according to the preset control signal. Its lifting process employs advanced drive technology and a precise transmission device, enabling smooth and accurate lifting. During the lifting process, the lifting mechanism 11 can automatically adjust the lifting height and force according to the size and weight of the carrier 2, ensuring that the carrier 2 can accurately reach the test position matching the test module.

[0109] The lifting mechanism 11 precisely controls the distance between the carrier 2 and the first DVI test module 6 or the second DVI test module 7, providing ideal testing conditions for the test modules. For example, during DVI testing, the lifting mechanism 11 can precisely lift the watch on the carrier 2 to a position where it contacts the test probe or test interface, ensuring stable transmission of test signals and accurate acquisition of test data. Simultaneously, the lifting mechanism 11 also has the ability to respond quickly and reset precisely; after testing, it can quickly lower the carrier 2 back onto the conveyor mechanism 3 so that the carrier 2 can continue to be conveyed to the downstream process.

[0110] Furthermore, to ensure the reliable operation and long service life of the lifting mechanism 11, high-quality materials and advanced processes were employed in its design and manufacturing. For example, key components of the lifting mechanism 11 utilize high-strength, wear-resistant alloy materials, and undergo special heat treatment and surface treatment processes to improve their hardness and corrosion resistance. Simultaneously, the control system incorporates comprehensive fault diagnosis and protection functions, enabling real-time monitoring of the lifting mechanism 11's operating status. When abnormalities are detected, timely alarms are issued and corresponding protective measures are implemented to prevent equipment damage and safety accidents.

[0111] By adding a lifting mechanism 11, the automatic watch testing device in this embodiment can more accurately control the position of the carrier 2 during the testing process, improving the accuracy and reliability of the test. At the same time, the automated operation of the lifting mechanism 11 also greatly improves testing efficiency and reduces the cost and error of manual intervention.

[0112] Please refer to this again. Figure 3 and in conjunction with references Figure 6-8 In one embodiment of this invention, in order to achieve more precise and efficient control over the lifting function of the automatic watch testing device, a comprehensive and innovative design was made for the lifting mechanism 11. Its core components include a first lifting cylinder 1101, a second lifting cylinder 1102, a lifting plate 1103, a docking block 1104, a support column 1105, and a proximity sensor 1106.

[0113] The support column 1105 plays a crucial supporting role in the overall structure of the lifting mechanism 11, and its position is precisely located around the perimeter of the lifting plate 1103. The support column 1105 is made of a high-strength, high-hardness alloy material and undergoes precise machining to ensure a smooth and flat surface, possessing excellent load-bearing capacity and stability. When the lifting mechanism 11 is in its initial state, the support column 1105 is at an appropriate height. After the lifting mechanism 11 starts operating, as the lifting plate 1103 rises, the support column 1105 can precisely contact the carrier 2 located on the conveying mechanism 3, providing uniform and stable support to the carrier 2, preventing swaying or tilting during testing, thereby ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the test.

[0114] The first lifting cylinder 1101, as one of the power drive components of the lifting mechanism 11, is stably mounted on the base 1. The first lifting cylinder 1101 employs advanced pneumatic technology, featuring rapid response and precise control. Its telescopic end is reliably connected to the lifting plate 1103 via a high-precision connector. When the first lifting cylinder 1101 receives a command from the control system, its internal piston extends rapidly under air pressure, pushing the lifting plate 1103 upward. During the lifting process, the first lifting cylinder 1101 can precisely control the rising height and speed of the lifting plate 1103 according to preset stroke and pressure parameters, ensuring that the support column 1105 accurately and smoothly contacts the carrier 2 located on the conveying mechanism 3, laying a solid foundation for subsequent testing operations.

[0115] The second lifting cylinder 1102 is also mounted on the base 1, working in conjunction with the first lifting cylinder 1101 to complete the various functions of the lifting mechanism 11. The telescopic end of the second lifting cylinder 1102 is tightly connected to the docking block 1104. The shape and size of the docking block 1104 are carefully designed to achieve precise docking with a specific interface on the carrier 2. When the second lifting cylinder 1102 receives a control signal, its piston rod extends, pushing the docking block 1104 upward, causing the docking block 1104 to dock with the carrier 2 located on the conveying mechanism 3. This docking method not only ensures a stable and reliable electrical connection between the carrier 2 and the test module, but also enables data transmission and signal interaction between the carrier 2 and the test module, providing a strong guarantee for the smooth progress of the test.

[0116] The proximity sensor 1106, serving as the intelligent sensing component of the lifting mechanism 11, is also located on the base 1. Employing advanced non-contact detection technology, the proximity sensor 1106 can accurately detect in real-time whether the carrier 2 has been conveyed to the position of the lifting mechanism 11. When the carrier 2 moves with the conveying mechanism 3 into the detection range of the proximity sensor 1106, the sensor immediately sends a signal to the control system. Based on the received signal, the control system determines whether the position of the carrier 2 is accurate and accordingly controls the actions of the first lifting cylinder 1101 and the second lifting cylinder 1102, ensuring that the lifting mechanism 11 can lift and dock the carrier 2 at the optimal time. The introduction of the proximity sensor 1106 significantly improves the automation level and working efficiency of the lifting mechanism 11, reducing manual intervention and human error.

[0117] Through the coordinated operation of the above components, the lifting mechanism 11 can achieve precise lifting and docking of the carrier 2 in the automatic watch testing device, providing ideal testing conditions for the first DVI testing module 6 and the second DVI testing module 7.

[0118] Please refer to this again. Figure 3 and in conjunction with references Figure 9-10 In one embodiment of this invention, the crown rotation test module 4 is a key component in the automatic watch testing device specifically used to detect the crown rotation function of the watch. Its overall structure is scientific and reasonable, and its functional modules are clearly defined. Specifically, it includes multiple core components such as the rotary motor 401, the probe module 402, the test plate 403, and the slide cylinder 404.

[0119] The rotary motor 401 and the probe module 402 are cleverly integrated into the slide cylinder 404, a design that not only saves installation space but also makes the collaborative work between components more efficient and convenient. The rotary motor 401, as the power output source, employs high-performance servo motor technology, possessing excellent characteristics such as high precision, high speed, and high torque. Its output shaft is tightly connected to the probe module 402 via a high-precision coupling. When the rotary motor 401 receives a command from the control system, its internal rotor rotates at high speed under the influence of an electromagnetic field, thereby driving the connected probe module 402 to rotate synchronously. This driving method ensures that the probe module 402 maintains high stability and precision during rotation, providing strong support for subsequent accurate testing of the watch crown.

[0120] The probe module 402, as a key component that directly contacts and tests the watch crown, is designed with the crown's shape, size, and material in mind. Utilizing a special elastic material and contoured design, the probe module 402 can achieve a tight and stable fit with crowns of different watch models. Driven by the rotary motor 401, the probe module 402 rotates the watch crown at a preset angle and speed, simulating the crown's operation during actual use. Simultaneously, the probe module 402 integrates high-precision force and displacement sensors, enabling real-time monitoring of parameters such as torque and angle during crown rotation, and accurately transmitting this data to the control system for analysis and processing.

[0121] The slide cylinder 404, serving as the motion actuator of the crown rotation test module 4, is stably mounted on the base 1. The slide cylinder 404 employs advanced pneumatic control technology, featuring rapid response and precise positioning. Its working principle involves changing the internal pressure of the cylinder to drive the piston rod in a linear motion, thereby causing the rotary motor 401 and probe module 402 mounted on it to move closer to or away from the watch. When a crown test is required, the slide cylinder 404 drives the rotary motor 401 and probe module 402 towards the watch, allowing the probe module 402 to accurately engage with the watch crown. After the test, the slide cylinder 404 again drives the rotary motor 401 and probe module 402 away from the watch, smoothly separating the probe module 402 from the watch crown. This flexible movement not only improves the automation of the test but also facilitates the mounting and dismounting of the watch.

[0122] The test board 403 serves as the data transmission and signal processing center for the crown rotation test module 4, and is reliably connected to the probe module 402 via a dedicated data cable. The test board 403 integrates a high-performance microprocessor and signal conditioning circuitry, enabling real-time processing and analysis of parameters such as torque and angle collected by the probe module 402. Simultaneously, the test board 403 also has the function of communicating with the internal circuitry of the watch, establishing an electrical connection with the watch through the probe module 402 to comprehensively test and evaluate the crown rotation function. During the test, the test board 403 analyzes and judges the collected data according to preset test standards and algorithms, and displays the test results intuitively on the operation interface for testers to view and analyze.

[0123] Through the coordinated operation of the above components, the crown rotation test module 4 can achieve accurate and efficient testing of the crown rotation function of different watch models.

[0124] Please refer to this again. Figure 3 and in conjunction with references Figure 11-12 In one embodiment of this invention, the ALS test module 5 is a core component of the automatic watch testing device used to accurately detect the ambient light sensing function of the watch. Its overall design cleverly integrates optical principles and mechanical structure, specifically covering multiple key components such as the first bracket 501, spherical light source 502, light source cover 503, diffuser 504, and V-shaped light guide cover 505.

[0125] The first bracket 501 serves as the basic support structure for the ALS test module 5, and its installation position is precisely set on the base 1. The first bracket 501 is made of high-strength, high-stability aluminum alloy material and undergoes precise machining processes to ensure excellent load-bearing capacity and resistance to deformation. The design of the first bracket 501 fully considers the stability of its connection with the base 1 and its compatibility with other components, providing a reliable guarantee for the stable operation of the entire ALS test module 5.

[0126] The spherical light source 502, serving as the light source emitting device for the ALS testing module 5, is firmly fixed to the first bracket 501, and its position is precisely above the conveying mechanism 3. The spherical light source 502 employs advanced LED lighting technology, possessing excellent characteristics such as high brightness, high uniformity, and low energy consumption. It integrates multiple high-precision LED chips, and through reasonable optical design and circuit layout, it can achieve uniform and stable light emission, providing a high-quality light source guarantee for subsequent optical testing.

[0127] The light source cover 503, serving as a component for protecting and optically adjusting the spherical light source 502, is tightly encased on the outside of the spherical light source 502. The light source cover 503 employs special materials and structural design, effectively preventing external dust and debris from contaminating and damaging the spherical light source 502. It also allows for preliminary adjustment and optimization of the light emitted by the spherical light source 502, ensuring more uniform illumination of subsequent optical components.

[0128] The diffuser 504, a key component for further diffusing and homogenizing light, is securely fixed to the light outlet of the light source cover 503. Utilizing high-precision optical materials and a microstructure design, the diffuser 504 uniformly diffuses the light emitted from the spherical light source 502, eliminating light spots and uneven intensity, resulting in softer and more uniform light illumination onto the subsequent V-shaped light guide cover 505. The installation position and angle of the diffuser 504 have been precisely calculated and adjusted to ensure optimal optical matching with the spherical light source 502 and the V-shaped light guide cover 505.

[0129] The V-shaped light guide 505, a crucial component for concentrating and guiding light onto the watch, is cleverly positioned outside the diffuser 504. The V-shaped light guide 505 employs a special V-shaped structure design, with its larger end facing the diffuser 504 and its smaller end facing the transmission mechanism 3. This design utilizes the principles of optical reflection and refraction to effectively concentrate and guide the light diffused by the diffuser 504 onto the watch on the carrier 2 located on the transmission mechanism 3, improving light utilization efficiency and testing accuracy. Simultaneously, the inner surface of the V-shaped light guide 505 undergoes fine optical processing to reduce light reflection and scattering losses, ensuring that light accurately illuminates the watch's ambient light sensor.

[0130] Regarding optical parameters, after rigorous design and experimental verification, the distance between the spherical light source 502 and the diffuser 504 was precisely set to 178mm. This distance ensures that the light emitted by the spherical light source 502 is sufficiently diffused and homogenized when passing through the diffuser 504, without attenuation or loss due to excessive distance. Simultaneously, the distance between the diffuser 504 and the watch located on the carrier 2 was precisely set to 111mm. This distance ensures that the diffused light accurately illuminates the watch's ambient light sensor, without excessive concentration or localized overheating due to insufficient distance, thus guaranteeing the accuracy and reliability of the test.

[0131] Through the coordinated operation of the above components, the ALS test module 5 can achieve accurate and efficient testing of the ambient light sensing function of different models of watches.

[0132] Please refer to this again. Figure 3 and in conjunction with references Figure 13-14 In one embodiment of this example, the first DVI test module 6 and the second DVI test module 7 are highly consistent in structural design and functional implementation, both covering the three core components of the second bracket 601, camera 602 and light source 603.

[0133] The second bracket 601 serves as the fundamental support structure for the entire test module, and its installation position is precisely set on the base 1. The second bracket 601 is made of high-strength, high-stability metal alloy material, and undergoes precise machining and surface treatment processes to ensure excellent load-bearing capacity, deformation resistance, and corrosion resistance. Its design fully considers the stability of the connection with the base 1, the installation compatibility with other components, and the aesthetics of the overall structure, providing a reliable guarantee for the stable operation of the test module.

[0134] The camera 602, as the core component of the visual inspection, is carefully mounted on the second bracket 601. The camera 602 employs high-resolution, high-sensitivity industrial camera technology, enabling it to quickly capture images and accurately identify details. It integrates an advanced optical lens and image sensor, capable of acquiring clear images of the watch's CG face in real time and transmitting this image data to the subsequent image processing system for analysis. The installation position and angle of the camera 602 have been precisely calculated and adjusted to ensure it accurately captures all areas of the watch's CG face, providing high-quality image data support for subsequent scratch, dust, or stain detection.

[0135] The light source 603, a key component providing suitable lighting conditions for the camera 602, is also mounted on the second bracket 601. Its mounting position coordinates with the camera 602, ensuring that the lighting direction aligns with the image-capturing direction of the camera 602, both pointing towards the conveying mechanism 3. The light source 603 employs high-brightness, high-uniformity LED illumination technology and features adjustable light intensity and angle. Its design fully considers the material, color, and detection requirements of the watch's CG surface, providing suitable lighting conditions to more clearly reveal the features of the watch's CG surface, thereby improving the detection accuracy and reliability of the camera 602.

[0136] During the testing process, the first DVI testing module 6 and the second DVI testing module 7 acquire image data of the watch's CG face through the camera 602, and analyze and process this image data using advanced image processing algorithms. For the first DVI testing module 6, its image processing algorithm mainly focuses on identifying and analyzing features such as lines and scratches in the image to determine whether there are scratches on the watch's CG face; while for the second DVI testing module 7, its image processing algorithm mainly focuses on detecting and locating features such as dust particles and stains in the image to determine whether there is dust or stains on the watch's CG face.

[0137] Through the coordinated operation of the above components, the first DVI test module 6 and the second DVI test module 7 can accurately and efficiently detect quality defects such as scratches, dust or stains on the CG face of different watch models.
