[0032] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below, with reference to Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides an FPC appearance inspection device, including a housing 100, a camera assembly 200, a barcode scanning assembly 300, a connecting assembly 400, and a Y-axis transmission assembly 500. The camera assembly 200, located in the housing 100, includes a camera module 210, a light source module 220, and a first X-axis transmission module 230, which drives the camera module 210 and the light source module 220 to move along the X-axis. The barcode scanning assembly 300, located in the housing 100, includes a barcode scanner 310 and a second X-axis transmission module 320, which drives the barcode scanner 310 to move along the X-axis. The connecting assembly 400, located in the housing 100, includes an X-axis conveyor belt 410 and a clamp 420, whereby the X-axis conveyor belt 410 transports a carrier plate 600, and the clamp 420 holds and positions the carrier plate 600. The Y-axis drive assembly 500 is located on the housing 100 and is used to drive the connecting assembly 400 to move along the Y-axis direction to below the camera assembly 200.

[0033] This appearance inspection equipment utilizes an X-axis conveyor belt 410 to connect and transport a carrier plate 600 carrying the product from a host computer. A fixture 420 then clamps and positions the carrier plate 600 at the target location. A Y-axis drive assembly 500 then moves the entire connection assembly 400 along the Y-axis to below the camera assembly 200. Under the action of the first X-axis conveyor module 230, the camera module 210 and the light source module 220 move along the X-axis and capture images of the product on the carrier plate 600. Simultaneously, under the action of the second X-axis conveyor module 320, the barcode scanner 310 moves along the X-axis and scans the QR code on the product. This equipment can acquire image information of the corresponding product, facilitating subsequent inspection of FPC appearance defects based on the image information. This significantly shortens inspection time, improves inspection efficiency, and enables efficient and accurate FPC appearance inspection, ensuring the appearance quality of the FPC. After data acquisition, the Y-axis drive assembly 500 drives the entire connecting assembly 400 to move and exit along the Y-axis direction. The clamp 420 releases the carrier plate 600, which can then be transported away by the X-axis conveyor belt 410. This achieves fully automated carrier plate 600 receiving and delivery as well as product information acquisition. It can be connected to a host computer and a slave computer for production line operation, further improving production efficiency.

[0034] Furthermore, referring to Figure 1The housing 100 includes a bottom frame 110 and an upper cover 120. The bottom frame 110 is equipped with casters and feet 111 for stable placement and position adjustment. An operating table 121 is located on the outer side of the upper cover 120. The operating table 121 can be rotated and folded or opened relative to the upper cover 120. A mouse 123 and a keyboard 122 are placed on the operating table 121. A computer 124 is mounted on the side of the upper cover 120 for easy operation and control by staff. A button 127 and a safety light curtain 125 are also located on the side of the upper cover 120. The button 127 enables functions such as start, emergency stop, and reset, while the safety light curtain 125 ensures safety in the work area. A tri-color light 126 is located on the top of the upper cover 120 to display the equipment's operating status and fault alarms.

[0035] Furthermore, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connecting assembly 400 also includes a mounting bracket 430. A first Y-axis guide rail 130 is provided on the housing 100. The mounting bracket 430 is slidably connected to the first Y-axis guide rail 130 along the Y-axis direction. A Y-axis drive assembly 500 can drive the mounting bracket 430 to slide along the first Y-axis guide rail 130. Specifically, the Y-axis drive assembly 500 can employ chain drive, etc. Two sets of X-axis conveyor belts 410 are distributed along the Y-axis direction. One set of X-axis conveyor belts 410 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 430, and the other set is slidably connected to the mounting bracket 430 along the Y-axis direction. Specifically, the mounting bracket 430 is provided with a second Y-axis guide rail 431 to facilitate connection of the other set of X-axis conveyor belts 410. Therefore, the spacing between the two sets of X-axis conveyor belts 410 can be adjusted, facilitating the connection of carrier plates 600 of different sizes. Furthermore, the connecting assembly 400 also includes a stop module 440 located between the two sets of X-axis conveyor belts 410. The stop module 440 includes a first drive member 441 and a buffer stop block 442. The first drive member 441 can drive the buffer stop block 442 to move along the Z-axis direction. When the X-axis conveyor belt 410 connects and conveys the carrier plate 600, the first drive member 441 drives the buffer stop block 442 to move upward to stop the carrier plate 600, so that the carrier plate 600 stops after moving to the target position. At this time, the X-axis conveyor belt 410 stops working, and the clamp 420 clamps the carrier plate 600. Furthermore, the clamp 420 includes a second drive member 421 and a buffer clamping block 422 connected to the output end of the second drive member 421.

[0036] Furthermore, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 4The first X-axis transmission module 230 includes a third drive unit 231 and a mounting plate 232. The third drive unit 231 drives the mounting plate 232 to move along the X-axis direction, and can be driven by a chain drive or other means. Both the camera module 210 and the light source module 220 are mounted on the mounting plate 232. Further, the camera module 210 is mounted on the mounting plate 232 via a fine-tuning slide 240. A fourth drive unit 250 is mounted on the mounting plate 232, and the light source module 220 is mounted at the output end of the fourth drive unit 250. Since the camera module 210 and the light source module 220 are mounted together on the mounting plate 232, they can move together along the X-axis direction. The camera module 210 and the light source module 220 are each connected to the mounting plate 232 via the fine-tuning slide 240 and the fourth drive component 250, which facilitates fine-tuning of the position of the camera module 210 and adjusting the height of the light source module 220, thereby better adjusting the illumination and camera focal length, and thus making it easier to capture clearer image information.
