Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a scanning device for a cup body. It belongs to the technical field of scanning equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In the manufacturing, R&D, and supporting industries of cups, the precise acquisition of the outer contour dimensions of the cup body is a core link in ensuring product quality and achieving functional compatibility. With the upgrading of consumer demand, the categories of cups are becoming increasingly diversified, extending from traditional cylindrical insulated cups and glass cups to irregularly shaped cups (such as cups with curved bodies and cups with irregular handles) and customized cups (such as personalized engraved cups and replica cups of cultural relics). At the same time, downstream applications have continuously increased requirements for dimensional accuracy—for example, the diameter error of the insulated cup body needs to be controlled within ±0.1mm to ensure the sealing of the cup lid, the adaptation of car cup holders needs to accurately match the maximum diameter and height ratio of the cup body, and the replica of cultural relics needs to reproduce the subtle curvature and hand-crafted texture of the cup mouth in a 1:1 ratio.
[0003] Traditional dimensional measurement relies on contact tools (such as vernier calipers and digital height gauges) to obtain data by manually touching key points on the cup body. However, this method has problems such as low efficiency, limited accuracy, and dependence on manual operation, making it difficult to meet the measurement needs of mass production and complex cup shapes. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention proposes a cup scanning device that can accurately capture subtle features and dimensional deviations of the cup body through non-contact data acquisition, shorten the measurement cycle and reduce manual reliance through automated data acquisition and processing, and adapt to the efficiency requirements of different scenarios, thus solving the problems existing in the prior art.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A scanning device for a cup body includes a horizontal base plate and a vertical base plate. A cup body mold and a cup body to be inspected, which are positioned and limited on the horizontal base plate, are detachably mounted on the horizontal base plate.
[0007] The vertical base plate is fixedly connected to two slide rails, and a first mounting side plate and a second mounting side plate are movably connected to the slide rails. The first mounting side plate is equipped with a non-contact measuring device for scanning the cup body to be tested. The second mounting side plate is connected via a connecting rod to a fixing cone for fixing the cup mouth to be tested. The cone is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, extending into the cup mouth to fix the cup body.
[0008] The non-contact measuring device is an infrared scanner or an industrial camera.
[0009] In one embodiment, the non-contact measuring device is an infrared scanner. A drive motor is fixedly mounted on the top of the vertical base plate. The drive motor is connected to a lead screw, and a sliding seat is fitted around the lead screw. The sliding seat is fixedly connected to the first mounting side plate. The drive motor drives the lead screw to rotate, thereby moving the sliding seat up and down, causing the non-contact measuring device to perform a comprehensive scan of the cup body from top to bottom, obtaining accurate cup body data.
[0010] In another scenario, the non-contact measuring device is an industrial camera, and the slide rail is equipped with a baffle for positioning the first mounting side plate. The industrial camera only needs to be fixed in place to measure the cup body.
[0011] The horizontal base plate has a fixing groove, and the bottom of the cup body mold has a fixing block that matches the fixing groove, making it convenient to replace different types of cup body molds.
[0012] In one case, the top of the cup body mold has a cup body mounting hole, and the side of the cup body mold has a step to facilitate scanning by non-contact measuring equipment.
[0013] In another case, the cup body mold has multiple vertical movable grooves inside, and the vertical movable grooves can accommodate abutment blocks that clamp the cup body. The abutment block includes a vertical end and a horizontal end. The horizontal end of the abutment block is located in the vertical movable groove and moves therein, and the vertical end of the abutment block clamps the cup body.
[0014] The cup body mold has a central column inside, and a spring is installed between the central column and the lateral end of the abutment block to facilitate the abutment block to clamp the cup body.
[0015] This utility model has the following features and significant effects:
[0016] This utility model relates to a cup body scanning device. The upper part of the cup body is fixed by a fixed cone, and the lower part is fixed by a cup body mold. A non-contact measuring device then scans the cup body, acquiring key external contour data (such as rim diameter, height, maximum diameter, curvature, and bottom diameter). Through "non-contact data acquisition," it can accurately capture subtle features and dimensional deviations of the cup body, fundamentally solving the problems of "incomplete sampling and large manual operation errors" in traditional measurement methods.
[0017] It can also perform sampling or full scanning of cups produced on the assembly line to verify whether the outer contour dimensions of each batch of products are consistent, preventing "batch differences" caused by mold wear, fluctuations in injection molding parameters, etc.
[0018] By automating data collection and processing, the measurement cycle is significantly shortened, while reducing reliance on manual labor and adapting to efficiency requirements in different scenarios. Attached Figure Description
