A comprehensive inspection device for plate thickness

Abstract

This invention provides a device for comprehensive inspection of plate thickness. A double-layer gantry is fixedly mounted on a frame, and a set of symmetrically arranged laser rangefinders are mounted on the gantry. X-axis and Y-axis driving mechanisms are provided to move the plate placement frame in the XY plane between the two laser rangefinders, enabling comprehensive inspection of the plate thickness at various locations. During the inspection, the first laser rangefinder detects the distance from the upper surface of the plate, and the second laser rangefinder detects the distance from the lower surface. The installation distance between the first and second laser rangefinders is fixed and known. Therefore, the plate thickness is obtained by subtracting the detection distances of the first and second laser rangefinders from the installation distance between them.

[0024] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0025] This embodiment provides a comprehensive plate thickness inspection device; see attached document.

[0026] See appendix Figure 2 The frame 1 serves as the supporting foundation for the entire device. Preferably, the frame 1 has the following structure: The frame 1 includes a rectangular frame 101, with support legs 102 positioned at the four bottom corners of the rectangular frame 101. A pad 103 is placed at the bottom of each support leg 102 to ensure stability with the ground. A flat mounting plate 104 is provided on the top surface of the rectangular frame 101 as the mounting base for the upper components. Furthermore, the rectangular frame 101 is welded together from multiple horizontal beams 1011, vertical beams 1012, and longitudinal beams 1013. After welding, the entire assembly undergoes stress-relief annealing, resulting in high strength and rigidity, and increased stability during movement.

[0027] The X-direction slide rail 2 and the X-direction linear electric slide table 3 are arranged parallel to each other and are installed on the mounting plate 104 of the frame 1. X-direction refers to the transverse direction along the frame 1. Furthermore, the X-direction slide rail 2 is installed on the mounting plate 104 of the frame 1 through the X-direction slide rail mounting base plate 21.

[0028] The Y-axis slide rail 4 and the Y-axis linear electric slide table 5 are arranged parallel to each other. The Y-axis slide rail 4 and the Y-axis linear electric slide table 5 are mounted on the X-axis slide rail 2 and the X-axis linear electric slide table 3. The X-axis linear electric slide table 3 synchronously drives the Y-axis slide rail 4 and the Y-axis linear electric slide table 5 to move along the X-axis (lateral direction). For details, please refer to the appendix. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the Y-axis linear electric slide 5. One end of the Y-axis linear electric slide 5 is mounted on the first actuating block of the X-axis linear electric slide 3 via the first connecting seat 51, and the other end of the Y-axis linear electric slide 5 is mounted on the first set of sliders 201 of the X-axis slide rail 2 via the second connecting seat 52; see appendix. Figure 4 This is a structural diagram of the Y-axis slide rail 4. The Y-axis slide rail 4 is mounted on the Y-axis slide rail mounting plate 41. One end of the Y-axis slide rail mounting plate 41 is mounted on the second actuating block of the X-axis linear electric slide table 3 via the third connecting seat 42. The other end of the Y-axis slide rail mounting plate 41 is mounted on the second set of sliders 202 of the X-axis slide rail 2 via the fourth connecting seat 43. See Appendix Figure 5 The X-axis slide rail 2 is provided with a first set of sliders 201 and a second set of sliders 202. Both the first set of sliders 201 and the second set of sliders 202 include two sliders to ensure the installation stability of the Y-axis slide rail 4 and the Y-axis linear electric slide table 5.

[0029] The double-layer gantry 6 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1, and the first laser rangefinder 71 and the second laser rangefinder 72 are symmetrically mounted vertically on the double-layer gantry 6. (See appendix) Figure 6 Specifically, the double-layer gantry 6 includes an upper beam 61, a lower beam 62, and two side supports 63. The upper beam 61 and the lower beam 62 are connected between the two side supports 63. The upper beam 61 and the lower beam 62 are arranged parallel to each other vertically, and both the upper beam 61 and the lower beam 62 are arranged along the Y direction (longitudinal direction). The first laser rangefinder 71 is installed vertically downward on the upper beam 61, and the second laser rangefinder 72 is installed vertically upward on the lower beam 62. The first laser rangefinder 71 and the second laser rangefinder 72 are on a vertical straight line.

[0030] The plate placement rack 8 is horizontally mounted on the Y-axis slide rail 4 and the Y-axis linear electric slide table 5 (specifically, one end of the plate placement rack 8 is connected to the actuating block 501 of the Y-axis linear electric slide table 5, and the other end of the plate placement rack 8 is connected to a set of sliders 401 on the Y-axis slide rail 4), and the plate placement rack 8 is located in the gap space between the first laser rangefinder 71 and the second laser rangefinder 72. During operation, the plate 10 to be inspected is placed on the plate placement rack 8, and the plate placement rack 8 is driven to move along the Y-axis (longitudinal direction) by the Y-axis linear electric slide table 5. This is combined with the synchronous driving of the Y-axis slide rail 4 and the Y-axis linear electric slide table 5 along the X-axis (lateral direction) by the X-axis linear electric slide table 3, thereby enabling the plate placement rack 8 to move in the XY plane and achieving comprehensive inspection of the thickness values ​​at various positions of the plate 10.

[0031] During the detection process, the first laser rangefinder 71 detects the distance to the upper surface of the plate, and the second laser rangefinder 72 detects the distance to the lower surface of the plate. The installation distance between the first laser rangefinder 71 and the second laser rangefinder 72 is fixed and known. Therefore, the thickness of the plate is obtained by subtracting the detection distance of the first laser rangefinder 71 and the detection distance of the second laser rangefinder 72 from the installation distance between the first laser rangefinder 71 and the second laser rangefinder 72.

[0032] Furthermore, a cover 9 is also provided on the frame 1, with an opening or door on the front for inserting and removing the plates to be tested; a base support enclosure 105 is also provided on the frame 1 (see appendix). Figure 2 The cover 9 is placed on the base support enclosure 105, and the cover 9 provides protection for the inspection device.

[0033] For ease of explanation, spatial relative terms such as “up,” “down,” “left,” and “right” are used in the embodiments to describe the relationship of one element or feature shown in the figures relative to another element or feature. It should be understood that, in addition to the orientations shown in the figures, spatial terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation. For example, if the device in the figures is inverted, an element described as being “down” of other elements or features would be positioned “up” of those other elements or features. Therefore, the exemplary term “down” can encompass both up and down orientations. The device may be positioned in other ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptions used herein will be interpreted accordingly.

[0034] Moreover, relational terms such as “first” and “second” are used merely to distinguish one component from another that has the same name, without necessarily requiring or implying any such actual relationship or order between the components.

[0035] The present invention has been described above by way of example. It should be noted that, without departing from the core of the present invention, any simple modifications, alterations or other equivalent substitutions that can be made by those skilled in the art without creative effort fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
