[0028] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1-8 ;

[0030] This utility model discloses a dual-station shell structure for sheet metal inspection, including an upper shell 1 and a lower shell 2, which are fixedly connected. The upper shell 1 includes four side walls, one of which has a gap 3 between it and the lower shell 2. The lower shell 2 is provided with a sliding assembly 4 and a detection assembly 5, which are movably connected to the lower shell 2. The sliding assembly 4 includes a first sliding plate 41 and a second sliding plate 42 that move in the same direction. The first sliding plate 41 passes through the gap 3 when sliding. The first sliding plate 41 and the second sliding plate 42 are used to support the sheet metal parts to be inspected. The detection assembly 5 is used to inspect the sheet metal parts to be inspected. The upper shell 1 is provided with a cabinet door 11 for opening or closing the internal space. The cabinet door 11 can be rotatably connected to the side wall of the upper shell 1.

[0031] Specifically, in use, the operator first opens cabinet door 11, places the sheet metal part to be inspected on sliding plate 2 42, and moves sliding plate 2 42 below the inspection component 5. At this time, sliding plate 1 41 moves synchronously to the outside of the upper housing 1. The inspection component 5 is used to inspect the surface dimensions and surface quality of the sheet metal part to be inspected. At the same time, the operator can place another sheet metal part to be inspected on sliding plate 1 41. After the first side of the sheet metal part to be inspected on sliding plate 2 42 is inspected, the sliding plate 2 42 is moved in the reverse direction to the loading / unloading position. Simultaneously, sliding plate 1 41 slides through gap 3 to the bottom of the inspection component 5 for inspection. At this point, the operator can rearrange the sheet metal parts on the sliding plate 42 so that the untested side faces the testing component 5. After the testing component 5 finishes testing the sheet metal parts on the sliding plate 41, the position is adjusted again, and the sliding plate 42 is moved below the testing component 5 to test the second side of the sheet metal parts on the sliding plate 42. This process is repeated to perform a comprehensive test on the sheet metal parts. The test is conducted inside the upper housing 1, so the sheet metal parts to be tested will not be damaged and are not affected by external interference, thus improving the accuracy of the test. This method is suitable for testing parts of various shapes. In addition, the cyclical movement of the sliding plate 41 and the sliding plate 42 improves work efficiency.

[0032] In this embodiment, the sliding assembly 4 further includes a slide rail component 43 and a slider component 44. The slide rail component 43 includes two long slide rails. Several support beams 6 are provided inside the lower housing 2. The support beams 6 can be vertical, horizontal, or both. This embodiment does not limit this. Support plates 7 are provided on the support beams 6, and two guide rail blocks 8 are provided on the support plates 7. The two guide rail blocks 8 are placed horizontally, and one end of the guide rail block 8 passes through the gap 3 and is located inside the upper housing 1. The two long slide rails are installed... Mounted on the support plate 7, more precisely, two long slide rails are respectively mounted on the guide rail block 8. The slide rail component 43 and the slider component 44 are slidably connected. The slider component 44 includes slider one 441 and slider two 442. Slider one 441 and slider two 442 are respectively provided with slide groove one and slide groove two. Slide groove one and slide groove two are respectively slidably connected to the two long slide rails so that slider one 441 and slider two 442 can slide stably with the two long slide rails, and are respectively fixedly connected to slide plate one 41 and slide plate two 42.

[0033] In this embodiment, the sliding assembly 4 includes a drive motor 45, a driving wheel 46, and a driven wheel 47. The drive motor 45 and the driving wheel 46 are coaxially and fixedly connected. A rack 48 is wound around the driving wheel 46 and the driven wheel 47. A connecting plate 49 is fixedly disposed on the rack 48 near the sliding plate 41. The connecting plate 49 is detachably connected to the sliding plate 41. Specifically, the drive motor 45 drives the driving wheel 46 to rotate, which in turn drives the rack 48 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven wheel 47 to rotate. At the same time, the rotation of the rack 48 can drive the connecting plate 49 to move, which in turn drives the sliding plate 41 to move. It is worth noting that the connecting plate 49 moves horizontally and does not interfere with the driving wheel 47. The rotation of the driving wheel 46 and the driven wheel 47, i.e. the movement range of the connecting plate 49, is from the driving wheel 46 to the driven wheel 47, making a reciprocating motion, without getting tangled on the driving wheel 46 and the driven wheel 47. Correspondingly, the sliding assembly 4 also includes a second drive motor (not shown in the figure), a second driving wheel (not shown in the figure), and a second driven wheel (not shown in the figure). The second drive motor and the second driving wheel are coaxially fixedly connected. The second driving wheel and the second driven wheel are wound with a rack 2 (not shown in the figure). A second connecting plate 2 (not shown in the figure) is fixedly installed on the rack 2 near the sliding plate 42. The second connecting plate and the second sliding plate 42 are detachably connected. The connection between the second connecting plate and the second sliding plate 42 can be fixed with screws.

[0034] It is worth noting that another implementation method is to use pneumatic sliders 441 and 442, which are driven by pneumatic means to move slide plates 41 and 42. In this embodiment, drive motors 45 and 2, along with racks 48 and 2, are used to drive slide plates 41 and 42, which can improve the accuracy of the movement of slide plates 41 and 42.

[0035] In this embodiment, the support plate 7 has an adjustment groove 9 and an adjustment plate 10. The bottom of the adjustment groove 9 has several through holes, and the adjustment plate 10 has several adjustment holes 12. The adjustment holes 12 are used to adjust the position of the adjustment plate 10 relative to the adjustment groove 9. The drive motor 45 and the drive wheel 46 are both located on the adjustment plate 10. The position of the adjustment plate 10 is adjusted by adjusting the adjustment holes 12, thereby adjusting the position of the drive motor 45 and the drive wheel 46, and thus adjusting the linear distance between the drive wheel 46 and the driven wheel 47, and further adjusting the tension of the toothed belt, so as to improve the convenience of assembly and improve the stability of the movement of the sliding plate 41.

[0036] In this embodiment, the lower housing 2 is provided with an anti-collision assembly, which includes an anti-collision post 13, a rubber post 14, and a rubber pad 15. The anti-collision post 13 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 41 or the sliding plate 42. One end of the rubber post 14 is fixedly connected to the rubber pad 15, and the other end of the rubber post 14 is fixedly connected to the support plate 7. The rubber pad 15 restricts the position of the anti-collision post 13. Furthermore, the lower housing 2 is provided with a plurality of sensors 16. Both the sliding plate 41 and the sliding plate 42 are provided with stroke sensing plates 17. The support plate 7 is provided with a controller. The sensors 16 are electrically connected to the controller. The controller is used to control the drive motor 45.

[0037] Specifically, during the movement of sliding plate 41 and sliding plate 42, the stroke sensing plate 17 cooperates with the sensor 16 on the lower housing 2 to monitor the position of sliding plate 41 and sliding plate 42 in real time, and the controller precisely controls the operation of drive motor 45 and drive motor 2 to ensure the stable movement of sliding plate 41 and sliding plate 42. If sliding plate 41 or sliding plate 42 moves to the limit position, the anti-collision post 13 will contact the rubber pad 15. The rubber post 14 and the rubber pad 15 together buffer the impact force to avoid damage to the equipment.

[0038] In this embodiment, the detection component 5 includes a camera floor 51, a camera mounting plate 52, and a camera detector 53. A support frame 18 is provided on the support beam 6. The camera floor 51 is connected to the support frame 18. The camera mounting plate 52 is fixedly connected to the camera floor 51. The camera detector 53 is connected to the camera mounting plate 52. Furthermore, the detection component 5 also includes a camera adjustment plate 54. The camera mounting plate 52 is connected to the camera adjustment plate 54. The camera adjustment plate 54 is connected to the camera detector 53. A display 19 is provided on one side wall of the upper housing 1. The display 19 is electrically connected to the controller.

[0039] Specifically, the camera detector 53 in the detection component 5 is stably positioned on the support frame 18 by the camera fixing plate 52 and the camera floor 51. The camera adjustment plate 54 can finely adjust the position and angle of the camera detector 53 to adapt to sheet metal parts of different shapes and sizes. The camera detector 53 performs high-precision detection on the surface dimensions and surface quality of the sheet metal parts. The detection data is transmitted to the controller in real time. The controller processes the data and transmits it to the display 19, so that the operator can observe the pass rate of the sheet metal parts to be inspected in real time.

[0040] In this embodiment, a vertical lead screw pair 20 is provided on the support frame 18. The moving end of the lead screw pair is fixedly connected to the camera floor 51. A handle 21 is provided on the lead screw pair. By rotating the handle 21, the operator can move the position of the camera floor 51 and thus move the position of the camera detector 53.

[0041] In this embodiment, the lower housing 2 is provided with several openings, and a miniature fan 22 is provided in each opening. The miniature fan 22 is provided with a commutator fan 23.

[0042] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
