[0050] The working principle of this embodiment:
[0051] The front assembly line 1 transports the colored shell 7 to the picking station 10. The colored shell stop 11 blocks the colored shell 7. The first picking device 2 picks up the colored shell 7 from the picking station 10 and moves it to the first photographing station 3. Then, the front industrial camera 31 and the lower industrial camera 30 take pictures of different sides of the colored shell 7. Afterward, the first picking device 2 moves the colored shell 7 to the second photographing station 4 and places the colored shell 7 on the worktable 40. The first picking device 2 resets, and there is no obstruction between the upper industrial camera 41 and the colored shell 7. The upper industrial camera 41 and the rear industrial camera 42 take pictures of the remaining sides of the colored shell 7. Then, the second picking device 5 removes the colored shell 7 from the worktable 40. The second suction cup gripper picks up the colored shell 7 and moves it backward to the sorting line 6. Since the sorting line 6 includes the first line 61 and the second line 62, when the colored shell 7 needs to be placed on the first line 61, there is no need to start the rotary swing cylinder 54. The second suction cup gripper moves to the top of the sorting station 60 of the first line 61 and releases the colored shell 7. However, when the colored shell 7 needs to be placed on the second line 62, the rotary swing cylinder 54 needs to be started to rotate the second suction cup gripper and move the colored shell 7 on the second suction cup gripper to the top of the sorting station 60 of the second line 62. Then the second suction cup gripper releases the colored shell 7.
[0052] The foregoing description of the specifications and embodiments is intended to explain the scope of protection of this utility model, but does not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. Modifications, equivalent substitutions, or other improvements to the embodiments of this utility model or a portion thereof that can be obtained by those skilled in the art through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation, based on the teachings of this utility model or the foregoing embodiments, should all be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
