[0006] In view of the problems of the aforementioned camera adjustment device for visual inspection, this utility model is proposed.

[0007] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a camera adjustment device for visual inspection, which solves the problem that "when using a visual inspection camera, it is necessary to make adaptive adjustments to enable it to perform better inspections. However, the existing adjustment of visual inspection cameras is limited, which can restrict the use of visual inspection cameras and make inspections inconvenient."

[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a camera adjustment device for visual inspection, comprising:

[0009] The frame has a control panel on its outer side, and a visual inspection device is installed on the side of the control panel.

[0010] An adjustment unit is located inside the frame. The adjustment unit includes a gear frame, a half gear, a gear ring, and a complete gear, which are used to flexibly adjust the vision inspection equipment to improve the inspection accuracy.

[0011] A clamping unit is located outside the adjustment unit. The clamping unit includes a telescopic rod and a clamping plate, and is used to clamp the object according to its shape.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the camera adjustment device for visual inspection described in this utility model, the adjustment unit includes an adjustment unit comprising a vertical plate fixedly installed at the bottom of the frame, a first threaded rod rotatably connected to the side wall of the vertical plate, a toothed frame sleeved on the outer wall of the first threaded rod, a limit sleeve slidably provided on the outer wall of the toothed frame, a half gear meshing on the top surface of the toothed frame, and a rotating column fixedly installed inside the half gear.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the camera adjustment device for visual inspection described in this utility model, a limiting ring is fixedly installed at the end of the rotating column, a gear ring is rotatably connected to the inner side of the limiting ring, a first bracket is fixedly installed on the side wall of the limiting ring, a motor is fixedly installed at the end of the first bracket, a rotating rod is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor, a complete gear is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rotating rod, and a second bracket is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the camera adjustment device for visual inspection described in this utility model, the outer wall of the rotating column is rotatably connected to the inside of the frame. There are four limiting sleeves, divided into two groups, symmetrically distributed around the center line of the top surface of the frame. Under the restriction of the limiting sleeves, the toothed frame can move stably. Since the half gear meshes with the toothed frame, the moving toothed frame drives the half gear to rotate, causing the rotating column to rotate inside the frame.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment of the camera adjustment device for visual inspection described in this utility model, the inner wall of the gear ring is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the visual inspection device, the gear ring meshes with the full gear, and under the restriction of the limiting ring, the rotating full gear can drive the gear ring to rotate stably, and the gear ring drives the visual inspection device to move, so that its position can be flexibly adjusted.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment of the camera adjustment device for visual inspection described in this utility model, the clamping unit includes a telescopic rod fixedly installed inside the frame body, and a push plate is fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic rod.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment of the camera adjustment device for visual inspection described in this utility model, a sleeve block is fixedly installed on the side of the push plate away from the telescopic rod, a second threaded rod is sleeved inside the sleeve block, a connecting frame is rotatably connected to the end of the second threaded rod, a connecting block is hinged to the inner side of the connecting frame, and a clamping plate is fixedly installed on the side of the connecting block away from the connecting frame.

[0018] As a preferred embodiment of the camera adjustment device for visual inspection described in this utility model, the clamping plate is arranged in an arc shape on the side away from the connecting block, and there are three clamping plates distributed around the center of the push plate. The clamping plates with arc surfaces can clamp objects in a clustered manner.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: During visual inspection, the object is fixed in the frame by the clamping unit. Rotating the first threaded rod, under the constraint of the limiting sleeve and the toothed frame, drives the half gear to rotate, thereby causing the rotating column, limiting ring, toothed ring and visual inspection equipment to rotate. Starting the motor drives the rotating rod and the full gear to rotate. Under the meshing action with the toothed ring, the position adjustment of the visual inspection equipment is realized, and the second bracket ensures the stable rotation of the rotating rod. The object can be inspected from all directions, avoiding frequent disassembly and improving the convenience of inspection.

[0020] When clamping an object, the telescopic rod is activated to push the push plate for initial fixation; the second threaded rod is rotated, which drives the connecting block and clamping plate to move through the connecting frame. Because the clamping plate and the connecting frame are hinged, it can adapt to different shaped objects, effectively improving clamping stability. Attached Figure Description

[0033] Example 1

[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides a camera adjustment device for visual inspection, comprising:

[0035] A frame 100 is provided, a control panel 101 is provided on the outside of the frame 100, and a visual inspection device 102 is provided on the side of the control panel 101.

[0036] The adjustment unit 200 is located inside the frame 100. The adjustment unit 200 includes a gear frame 203, a half gear 205, a gear ring 208 and a complete gear 212, which are used to flexibly adjust the vision inspection device 102 to make the inspection accuracy higher.

[0037] The clamping unit 300 is located outside the adjusting unit 200. The clamping unit 300 includes a telescopic rod 301 and a clamping plate 307, and is used to clamp the object according to its shape.

[0038] In use, when performing visual inspection, the object is adaptively clamped by the clamping unit 300. Under the restriction of the adjustment unit 200, it can flexibly adjust the visual inspection device 102, making the inspection more convenient. The light source part in the visual inspection device 102 can adjust its distance from the camera through the telescopic mechanism. The light source part is installed by bolts. Different types of light sources can be selected and installed according to different objects to improve the inspection accuracy.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the previous embodiment, this embodiment is further optimized based on the above embodiment, as follows:

[0041] The adjustment unit 200 includes a vertical plate 201 fixedly installed at the bottom of the frame 100. A first threaded rod 202 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the vertical plate 201. A toothed frame 203 is sleeved on the outer wall of the first threaded rod 202. A limit sleeve 204 is slidably provided on the outer wall of the toothed frame 203. A half gear 205 is meshed on the top surface of the toothed frame 203. A rotating column 206 is fixedly installed inside the half gear 205. A limiting ring 207 is fixedly installed at the end of the rotating column 206. A toothed ring 208 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the limiting ring 207. A first bracket 209 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the limiting ring 207. A motor 210 is fixedly installed at the end of the first bracket 209. A rotating rod 211 is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor 210. A complete gear 212 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rotating rod 211. A second bracket 213 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 211.

[0042] The outer wall of the rotating column 206 is rotatably connected to the inside of the frame 100. There are four limiting sleeves 204, which are divided into two groups and symmetrically distributed around the center line of the top surface of the frame 100. Under the restriction of the limiting sleeves 204, the toothed frame 203 can move stably. Since the half gear 205 meshes with the toothed frame 203, the moving toothed frame 203 drives the half gear 205 to rotate, so that the rotating column 206 rotates inside the frame 100.

[0043] The inner wall of the gear ring 208 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the vision inspection device 102. The gear ring 208 meshes with the complete gear 212. Under the restriction of the limiting ring 207, the rotating complete gear 212 can drive the gear ring 208 to rotate stably. The gear ring 208 drives the vision inspection device 102 to move, and its position can be flexibly adjusted.

[0044] In use, when visually inspecting an object, it is clamped inside the frame 100 by the clamping unit 300. At this time, rotating the first threaded rod 202 causes the toothed frame 203, which is fitted on its outer wall, to move. Since the outer wall of the limiting sleeve 204 is fixedly installed inside the frame 100, and the outer wall of the toothed frame 203 is slidably connected to the limiting sleeve 204, the rotating first threaded rod 202 moves the toothed frame 203 fitted on its outer wall. Because the top surface of the toothed frame 203 meshes with the half gear 205, and the outer wall of the rotating column 206 is rotatably connected to the inside of the frame 100, the moving toothed frame 203 drives the half gear 205 to rotate. The half gear 205 then drives the rotating column 206 to rotate. The rotating column 206 drives the limiting ring 207 and the toothed ring 208 to rotate around the center of the rotating column 206. The visual inspection device 102, which is fixedly mounted on its inner wall, rotates, and its inspection angle is adjusted. At this time, the motor 210 is started, and the rotating rod 211, which is fixedly mounted on its output end, rotates accordingly. The complete gear 212, which is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the rotating rod 211, also rotates accordingly. Since the complete gear 212 meshes with the gear ring 208, and the side wall of the gear ring 208 is rotatably set with the limiting ring 207, under its restriction, the rotating complete gear 212 drives the gear ring 208 to rotate, adjusting the position of the visual inspection device 102. With the support of the second bracket 213, the rotating rod 211 can rotate stably. This structure allows for flexible adjustment of the visual inspection device 102 fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the gear ring 208, and allows for all-round inspection of the clamped object without the need for frequent disassembly of the object, making the inspection more convenient.

[0045] Example 3

[0046] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 This is the third embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the previous embodiment, this embodiment is further optimized based on the above embodiments, as detailed below:

[0047] The clamping unit 300 includes a telescopic rod 301 fixedly installed inside the frame 100. A push plate 302 is fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic rod 301. A sleeve block 303 is fixedly installed on the side of the push plate 302 away from the telescopic rod 301. A second threaded rod 304 is sleeved inside the sleeve block 303. A connecting frame 305 is rotatably connected to the end of the second threaded rod 304. A connecting block 306 is hinged to the inner side of the connecting frame 305. A clamping plate 307 is fixedly installed on the side of the connecting block 306 away from the connecting frame 305.

[0048] Among them, the clamping plate 307 is arranged in an arc shape on the side away from the connecting block 306. There are three clamping plates 307, which are distributed in a circle around the center of the push plate 302. The clamping plates 307 with the arc surface can clamp the object in a clustered manner.

[0049] In use, when visually inspecting an object, it needs to be clamped. Activating the two telescopic rods 301 pushes the push plate 302, causing it to clamp the object. Since objects have varying shapes, adaptive clamping is required. At this time, rotating the second threaded rod 304 causes the clamping plate 307 to slide against the push plate 302. Under this constraint, the rotating second threaded rod 304 pushes the connecting block 306 and the clamping plate 307 via the connecting frame 305, causing the clamping plate 307 to clamp the object. Because the clamping plate 307 is hinged to the connecting frame 305 via the connecting block 306, it is further fitted to the object, allowing for adaptive clamping based on the object's shape, thus improving clamping stability.

[0050] It is worth noting that the entire device is controlled by a controller. Since the controller is a common device and belongs to existing mature technology, its electrical connection relationship and specific circuit structure will not be described in detail here.

[0051] It should be understood that numerous specific implementation decisions can be made during the development of any practical implementation, such as in any engineering or design project. Such development efforts may be complex and time-consuming, but for those of ordinary skill in the art who benefit from this disclosure, the development effort will be a routine task in design, manufacturing, and production without requiring extensive experimentation.

[0052] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
