Detailed Implementation

[0025] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a bottle cap appearance quality inspection system, including: a waterfall capping machine 1.

[0027] like Figure 1-3As shown, in this embodiment, a feeding device 2 is provided on the left side of the waterfall-type capping machine 1. An air blowing component 201 is provided at the rightmost end of the feeding device 2. A conveyor line 3 is provided at the end of the feeding device 2. A housing 10 is provided on the rightmost side of the conveyor line 3. A cap-separating mechanism 4 is provided on the left side of the conveyor line 3 inside the housing 10. A top vision device 5 is provided on the right side of the cap-separating mechanism 4. A side vision detection device 6 is provided around the top vision device 5. A top suction conveyor line 7 is provided on the right side of the top vision device 5. A box-separating mechanism 8 is provided on the right side of the top suction conveyor line 7. A fan is provided on the back of the housing 10. A human-machine interface 9 is provided on the left side of the exterior of the housing 10. The entire device is fed from the waterfall-type capping machine 1 to the feeding device 2. The air blowing component 201 on the feeding device 2 blows the bottle caps onto the conveyor line 3, which continuously conveys them into the cap-separating mechanism 4 inside the housing 10. The cap-separating mechanism 4 controls the spacing of the bottle caps on the conveyor line 3 to facilitate subsequent identification. Below the bowl-shaped light source 503 of the top vision inspection device 5, brightness is increased by illumination. The top industrial camera 502 inside the bowl-shaped light source 503 performs identification and detection. At the same time, the side vision devices 6 installed around the perimeter also perform detection through the side industrial cameras 601. The conveyor line 3 continues to transport the bottle cap to the lower left side of the top suction conveyor line 7. The conveyor line 3 disconnects at the bottom of the top suction conveyor line 7. The bottle cap is lifted by the suction of the top suction conveyor line 7. The bottom vision inspection device 701 at the bottom of the top suction conveyor line 7 can then take pictures and detect the bottom of the bottle cap. Then, the bottle cap is transported to the connecting sorting mechanism 8 through the top suction conveyor line 7. The sorting mechanism 8 adjusts and inputs the bottle cap into a pre-prepared packing box for storage. The entire detection device of the equipment is installed inside the housing 10 to prevent external light sources from interfering with the detection process. All detection results are transmitted to the human-machine interface next to it through data transmission. The operator can observe the detection status at any time.

[0028] like Figure 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the cap-separating mechanism 4 is provided with cap-separating rubber wheels 402 on both sides of the top of the conveyor line 3, and a motor 401 is provided on the top of the cap-separating rubber wheels 402. The cap-separating rubber wheels 402 are driven by the top motor 401. The speed difference between the cap-separating rubber wheels 402 and the conveyor line 3 is used to separate the bottle caps at equal intervals, thereby increasing the distance between each bottle cap and allowing the subsequent industrial camera to better identify them.

[0029] like Figure 1-3As shown, in this embodiment, a vision cover 501 is sleeved on the outside of the top vision device 5. A bowl-shaped light source 503 is set on the top of the top vision device 5 at the top of the conveyor line 3. A top industrial camera 502 is installed inside the bowl-shaped light source 503. A side vision inspection device 6 is installed near the top with a side industrial camera 601. The top industrial camera 502 and the side industrial camera 601 have the same structure and can both take pictures of the bottle caps that pass by and upload them. The side vision inspection device 6 is centered on the bowl-shaped light source 503 and has four evenly distributed parts. When the bottle cap is conveyed to the bottom of the bowl-shaped light source 503, the side industrial cameras 601 on the four side vision inspection devices 6 take pictures of the side of the bottle cap from four directions. The top industrial camera 502 inside the top bowl-shaped light source 503 takes pictures of the bottle cap from the top, realizing the detection of pictures around and on the top of the bottle cap. The overall picture is taken inside the vision cover 501, minimizing the influence of external light.

[0030] like Figure 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, a bottom visual inspection device 701 is provided at the bottom center of the top suction conveyor line 7. An aluminum profile 703 is provided inside the top suction conveyor line 7. An air pipe 702 is provided on one side of the aluminum profile 703. A belt is sleeved on the surface of the aluminum profile 703. The belt is attached to the surface of the aluminum profile 703. A rotating shaft motor is provided at one end to drive the belt to rotate on the aluminum profile 703. Through the small hole opened on the belt, a connecting hole is opened at the bottom of the aluminum profile 703. The air pipe 702 draws air from the inside of the aluminum profile 703 to form a negative pressure. The air is attracted to the bottle cap through the small hole. The belt drives the bottle cap to move to the conveyor line 3 of the end boxing mechanism 8. When the bottle cap is lifted, the bottom is suspended in the air. The bottle cap passes over the top visual inspection device 701, and the inspection is completed.

[0031] like Figure 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the rightmost end of the side visual inspection device 6 is provided with a rejection nozzle 602 on one side of the conveyor line 3. The rejection nozzle 602 is provided with a front rejection hopper 603 on the other side of the conveyor line 3. The bottom visual inspection device 701 is provided with a rejection nozzle 705 on one side of the conveyor line 3 and a rear rejection hopper 706 on the other side of the conveyor line 3. When the top visual inspection device 5 and the side visual inspection device 6 detect defective products, the bottle caps are transported to the corresponding positions. The rejection nozzle 602 generates an instantaneous airflow that blows the bottle caps on the conveyor line 3 to the front rejection head 603 on the opposite side, and finally discharges them outside the machine housing 10. Similarly, the bottom visual inspection device 701 detects defective products and blows them into the rear rejection hopper 706 by the rejection nozzle 705, thus completing the discharge of defective products.

[0032] like Figure 1-3As shown, in this embodiment, a spacing adjustment device 403 is provided on the right side of the cap-separating roller 402, and a height adjustment device 704 is provided on the other side of the air pipe 702 on the aluminum profile 703. The spacing adjustment device 403 can adjust the spacing between the two cap-separating rollers 402 to allow different sizes of bottle caps to pass through, and the height adjustment device 704 can raise the entire conveyor line 3, thereby adjusting the height so that the bottom belt can fit bottle caps of different thicknesses for movement.

[0033] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a photoelectric sensor 801 is installed above the box-separating mechanism 8 in this embodiment. The photoelectric sensor 801 is connected to a counting sensor, which counts each qualified bottle cap that passes by, thereby recording the number of qualified bottle caps. Multiple sets of cardboard boxes are placed at the bottom of the box-separating mechanism 8. The angle of the internal baffle of the box-separating mechanism 8 is adjusted so that the bottle caps move to another cardboard box after the number of bottle caps in the cardboard box reaches a predetermined value, thereby achieving automatic box-separating operation.

[0034] Working principle: The detection system automatically feeds the bottle caps through the waterfall-type capping machine 1. The air blowing component 201 blows the bottle caps to the conveyor line 3 for automatic conveying. The bottle caps enter the machine box 10. First, the cap separating mechanism 4 automatically adjusts the spacing between each bottle cap. After being detected by the top and side visual inspection devices, the unqualified products are automatically blown into the front rejection hopper 603 through the rejection nozzle 1 and discharged. Then, the top suction conveyor line 7 picks up the bottle caps and lifts the bottom, so that the bottom visual inspection device 701 can take pictures of the bottom of the bottle cap for inspection. The unqualified products are then rejected by the rejection nozzle 2 705 and sent to the rear rejection hopper 706. Finally, the boxing mechanism 8 completes the boxing and packaging. The whole process does not require manual adjustment of the bottle caps, realizing the automation of the entire detection process.
