Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of visual inspection technology, specifically a visual inspection robot that can adjust the visual angle. Background Technology

[0002] In the industrial production sector, with the rapid development of intelligent manufacturing, visual inspection technology, as a crucial means of product quality control, is widely used in various industries such as electronics, automotive, and machinery manufacturing. Traditional visual inspection equipment typically has fixed visual inspection probes, enabling inspection only at specific angles and positions of the product. When faced with workpieces with complex shapes and diverse surface features, the inability to flexibly adjust the inspection angle easily leads to blind spots, resulting in frequent missed or false detections and failing to meet the demands of high-precision inspection.

[0003] Although some improved equipment has introduced simple angle adjustment structures (such as a single rotation or linear movement mechanism), it still has significant drawbacks: manual adjustment equipment is cumbersome to operate and has low precision; automatic equipment driven by a single motor has limited detection angle and range and cannot achieve all-round detection.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to modify it by setting up a moving stage, a rotating stage, a multi-axis manipulator and a placement frame mechanism to rotate the object to be inspected while adjusting the vision inspection probe. This enables flexible adjustment of the inspection angle in multiple dimensions, can cover the workpiece surface in all directions, effectively eliminate blind spots, and significantly reduce the probability of missed or false detections.

This allows for comprehensive coverage of the workpiece surface, effectively eliminating blind spots and significantly reducing the probability of missed or false inspections. It solves the problems of cumbersome operation and low precision of manually adjustable equipment, and the limited inspection angle and range of single-motor driven automatic equipment, which cannot achieve omnidirectional inspection.

A placement frame mechanism 12 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the first support plate 10 and the second support plate 11.

[0018] refer to Figure 4 The placement frame mechanism 12 includes a C-shaped frame 13 rotatably connected to the right side of the first support plate 10.

The output end of the servo motor 15 is fixedly connected to the center of the right side of the rotating frame 14 through a coupling. A clamping mechanism 16 is provided inside the rotating frame 14.

[0019] As a technical optimization of this utility model, by setting the servo motor 15 in the placement frame mechanism 12 to drive the rotating frame 14 to rotate, thereby driving the C-shaped frame 13 and the internal detection object to rotate, the detection object can be flipped to different angles. With the visual inspection probe 9, the detection of each side of the detection object can be realized, further increasing the diversity of the detection perspective, solving the problem that traditional equipment is difficult to detect the back of the detection object and other positions, and improving the integrity of the detection.

[0020] refer to Figure 4The clamping mechanism 16 includes a number of fixed baffles 17 fixedly connected inside the rotating frame 14 and clamping cylinders 18 fixedly connected inside the C-shaped frame 13.

The output end of the clamping cylinder 18 passes through the interior of the rotating frame 14 and is fixedly connected to the left side of the leftmost movable clamping plate 19.

[0021] As a technical optimization of this utility model, by setting a clamping cylinder 18 to push the moving clamping plate 19, which cooperates with the fixed baffle 17, it is possible to stably clamp the test objects of different sizes, ensuring that the position of the test objects is fixed during the test process, and avoiding the impact of the test object shaking on the accuracy of the test results; at the same time, multiple moving clamping plates 19 and fixed baffles 17 are staggered, which can simultaneously meet the clamping requirements of multiple test objects of the same batch, further improving the test efficiency.

[0022] refer to Figure 5 The top of the push rod 21 is fixedly connected to a T-shaped block 22. The bottom of the rotating frame 14 has a number of T-shaped grooves 23 that cooperate with the T-shaped block 22.

[0025] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the height of the visual inspection probe 9 can be adjusted according to the inspection requirements by setting the electric telescopic rod 24, which can adapt to the inspection objects of different heights; the light shield 25 can reduce the interference of external light on the visual inspection probe 9 and ensure the quality of the inspection image; the adjustable supplementary light 26 can adjust the intensity and angle of the light according to the inspection environment and the characteristics of the inspection object, providing suitable lighting conditions for the visual inspection probe 9, improving the clarity and accuracy of the inspection, and is especially suitable for inspection scenarios with poor lighting conditions.

[0026] refer to Figure 1 The front and rear sides of the top of the worktable 2 are fixedly connected with slide rails 27, and the front and rear sides of the bottom of the movable table 3 are fixedly connected with slide tracks 28 that cooperate with the slide rails 27. The inner wall of the slide track 28 is slidably connected to the surface of the slide rail 27.

[0027] As a technical optimization of this utility model, by setting the slide rail 27 and the slide 28 in cooperation, a stable support and guide are provided for the sliding of the moving stage 3 on the worktable 2, reducing the friction and resistance during the movement of the moving stage 3, so that the moving stage 3 can move more smoothly and accurately, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of the horizontal position adjustment of the visual inspection probe 9, and improving the detection efficiency and detection accuracy.

[0028] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: In use, the workpiece to be tested is placed in the clamping mechanism 16 of the placement frame mechanism 12 through the external feeding device. The clamping cylinder 18 is started, and its output end pushes the leftmost movable clamping plate 19. When the leftmost movable clamping plate 19 moves, it drives the extension rod 20 and the push rod 21 to move, so that several movable clamping plates 19 slide in the rotating frame 14 and cooperate with the fixed baffle 17 to stably clamp the workpiece. Subsequently, if it is necessary to adjust the angle of the workpiece, the servo motor 15 is started, and the rotating frame 14 is driven to rotate through the coupling, thereby rotating the C-shaped frame 13 and the clamped workpiece to a suitable angle. The multi-axis robot arm 8 can flexibly adjust the angle of the vision inspection probe 9, and the electric telescopic rod 24 can adjust the height of the vision inspection probe 9 as needed. After adjustment, the vision inspection probe 9 is aligned with the object to be inspected. The forward and reverse motor 6 works, and its output end drives the ball screw 5 to rotate through the coupling. The nut seat 4 moves on the ball screw 5, driving the moving table 3 to slide along the slide rail 27 on the top of the worktable 2, so that the vision inspection probe 9 moves in the horizontal direction, thereby inspecting multiple objects to be inspected on the placement frame mechanism 12 one by one. During the inspection process, if the ambient light is poor, the angle and brightness of the supplementary light 26 can be adjusted, and the light shield 25 reduces the interference of external light to ensure the clarity and accuracy of the inspection image. The vision inspection probe 9 acquires images of the workpiece and transmits the data to the control box 1 for analysis and processing, thereby completing the inspection task.
