Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automated testing, and more specifically, to a dual-function testing device. Background Technology
[0002] After the nickel sheets are soldered, battery modules require line sequence inspection and appearance inspection. Currently, these two inspections are often performed at separate stations. Products first undergo electrical connection testing at the line sequence inspection station before being transferred to the vision inspection station for appearance inspection. The independent layout of the line sequence inspection and vision inspection mechanisms at these separate stations increases equipment space requirements and makes compact arrangement difficult. Furthermore, the transfer and repositioning of products between stations consumes additional time, and vision inspection can only begin after the line sequence inspection is completed. This creates a gap in process connections, impacting inspection efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dual-function inspection device that integrates line sequence inspection and appearance inspection into one unit, thereby optimizing the spatial layout of the device and effectively improving inspection efficiency.
[0004] A dual-function testing device, comprising: The carrier mechanism includes a carrier base and a translation drive assembly, wherein the carrier base is used to place the product to be inspected, and the translation drive assembly is used to drive the carrier base to move between a loading / unloading position and an inspection position; A visual inspection mechanism is installed above the inspection position; and A line sequence detection mechanism, located at the detection position, includes a pressure plate and a lifting drive assembly. The lifting drive assembly is used to drive the pressure plate to move vertically so that the pressure plate presses against the product and is electrically connected to the product. The pressure plate has several through holes, which expose the product for detection by the visual inspection mechanism.
[0005] In the above technical solution, the dual-function inspection equipment realizes the automatic transfer of products between the loading / unloading position and the inspection position through the translation drive component of the bearing mechanism. While the pressure plate of the line sequence inspection mechanism presses down and forms an electrical connection with the product, the vision inspection mechanism performs visual inspection on the exposed product area through the through hole of the pressure plate. Thus, dual inspection functions are integrated into a single device, enabling line sequence inspection and vision inspection to work together, optimizing the spatial layout of the equipment, eliminating the transfer and repositioning links in traditional substation inspection, significantly improving inspection efficiency and consistency, and achieving dual optimization of equipment space utilization and inspection process.
[0006] Furthermore, the pressure plate is provided with a plurality of elastic probes for contacting and electrically connecting with the product.
[0007] In the above technical solution, an elastic probe is set on the pressure plate to directly contact the product to achieve electrical connection. The elasticity of the probe is used to buffer and avoid damage to the product, while ensuring stable transmission of detection signals and improving the reliability and safety of line sequence detection.
[0008] Furthermore, the pressure plate is provided with a plurality of mounting plates, the mounting plates being detachably connected to the pressure plate, and the elastic probe passing through the mounting plate.
[0009] In the above technical solution, a detachable mounting plate is used to fix the elastic probe, which facilitates quick changes in probe layout for different products, while also making probe replacement and maintenance convenient, reducing maintenance costs and improving equipment adaptability.
[0010] Furthermore, the lifting drive assembly includes two lifting drive components, which are respectively disposed at both ends of the pressure plate and connected to the pressure plate.
[0011] In the above technical solution, two lifting drive components are symmetrically distributed at both ends of the pressure plate, so that the pressure plate is subjected to uniform force and prevents the pressure plate from tilting, ensuring that the product is subjected to uniform pressure and that the electrical connection is stable, thereby improving the consistency of testing.
[0012] Furthermore, the support includes multiple positioning blocks, which together form a positioning space for placing the product.
[0013] In the above technical solution, an adaptive space is formed by enclosing multiple positioning blocks to constrain the product's displacement freedom on the carrier, avoid positional deviation during transfer and testing, and ensure accurate positioning for visual and electrical testing.
[0014] Furthermore, the support base is provided with an adjustment groove, and the adjustment groove is provided with multiple sets of mounting holes. The positioning block can select one set of mounting holes to connect with the support base.
[0015] In the above technical solution, the design of the adjustment groove and multiple sets of mounting holes allows the position of the positioning block to be adjusted as needed, quickly adapting to the positioning requirements of products of different sizes, enhancing the versatility of the load-bearing mechanism and reducing changeover time.
[0016] Furthermore, the visual inspection mechanism includes a detection component and a visual driving component, the visual driving component being used to drive the detection component to move.
[0017] In the above technical solution, the vision driving component drives the detection component to move, expanding the scanning coverage of the vision mechanism, enabling flexible focusing detection of different areas of the product, and improving the visual recognition capability of complex structures.
[0018] Furthermore, the vision driving component includes a first driving component for driving the detection component to move along a first direction, a second driving component for driving the detection component to move along a second direction, and a third driving component for driving the detection component to move along a third direction.
[0019] In the above technical solution, the three-axis drive assembly enables the detection assembly to move precisely throughout the entire space, supports multi-angle and multi-directional visual acquisition, and meets the three-dimensional detection needs of highly complex products.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The dual-function inspection equipment realizes the automatic transfer of products between the loading / unloading position and the inspection position through the translation drive component of the bearing mechanism. While the pressure plate of the line sequence inspection mechanism presses down and forms an electrical connection with the product, the vision inspection mechanism performs visual inspection on the exposed product area through the through hole of the pressure plate. Thus, dual inspection functions are integrated into a single device, enabling line sequence inspection and vision inspection to work together, optimizing the spatial layout of the equipment, eliminating the transfer and repositioning links in traditional substation inspection, significantly improving inspection efficiency and consistency, and achieving dual optimization of equipment space utilization and inspection process.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0029] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 In a preferred embodiment, the dual-function inspection device of this utility model mainly includes a support mechanism 1, a vision inspection mechanism 2, and a line sequence inspection mechanism 3. The support mechanism 1 includes a support base 11 and a translation drive assembly 12. The support base 11 is used to place the product to be inspected, and the translation drive assembly 12 is used to drive the support base 11 to move between the loading / unloading position and the inspection position. The vision inspection mechanism 2 is mounted above the inspection position, and the line sequence inspection mechanism 3 is located at the inspection position, including a pressure plate 31 and a lifting drive assembly 32. The lifting drive assembly 32 is used to drive the pressure plate 31 to move vertically, so that the pressure plate 31 presses the product and is electrically connected to the product. The pressure plate 31 has several through holes 311, which expose the product for inspection by the vision inspection mechanism 2.
[0031] For example, the support mechanism 1 is mounted on a platform, and the translation drive component 12 can be an existing linear drive module. It is connected to the support seat 11 and drives the support seat 11 to move between the loading / unloading position and the detection position. The loading / unloading position is used to load and unload the support seat 11, and the detection position is used to perform line sequence detection and visual inspection on the products placed on the support seat 11. In this embodiment, the platform is provided with guide rails, and the support seat 11 is slidably connected to the guide rails to ensure the stability of its movement.
[0032] It should be noted that the product in this embodiment is a battery module. After the nickel sheets are welded, the continuity and sequence of the bracket sampling lines need to be tested, and the welding quality of the welding positions needs to be visually inspected. Both the visual inspection mechanism 2 and the line sequence inspection mechanism 3 are located at the inspection position. When the carrier carrying the product moves to the inspection position, the lifting drive assembly 32 drives the pressure plate 31 to press down, thereby electrically connecting with the inspection position on the product surface. At the same time, the visual inspection mechanism 2 performs visual inspection of the exposed welding area through the through hole 311 of the pressure plate 31, thus integrating dual inspection functions into a single device. This allows line sequence inspection and visual inspection to work together, optimizes the spatial layout of the equipment, eliminates the transfer and repositioning steps in traditional substation inspection, significantly improves inspection efficiency and consistency, and achieves dual optimization of equipment space utilization and inspection process.
[0033] Please refer to Figure 4 The pressure plate 31 is provided with a plurality of elastic probes 312 for contacting and electrically connecting with the product. In specific implementation, the elastic probes 312 can be existing ones. Electrical connection is achieved by setting the elastic probes 312 on the pressure plate 31 to directly contact the product. The elasticity of the probes is used to buffer and avoid damage to the product, while ensuring stable transmission of detection signals and improving the reliability and safety of line sequence detection.
[0034] The pressure plate 31 is provided with several mounting plates 313, which are detachably connected to the pressure plate 31. The elastic probe 312 passes through the mounting plate 313. The use of detachable mounting plates 313 to fix the elastic probe 312 facilitates quick changes in probe layout for different products, while also facilitating probe replacement and maintenance, reducing maintenance costs and improving equipment adaptability.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The lifting drive assembly 32 includes two lifting drive components 321, which are respectively disposed at both ends of the pressure plate 31 and connected to the pressure plate 31. For example, the lifting drive components 321 can be existing linear drive devices, such as cylinders. The two lifting drive components 321 are symmetrically distributed at both ends of the pressure plate 31, ensuring uniform force on the pressure plate 31 and preventing it from tilting. This ensures uniform pressure on the product and stable electrical connection, improving testing consistency.
[0036] The support 11 includes multiple positioning blocks 111, which enclose a positioning space for placing the product. The adaptive space formed by the multiple positioning blocks 111 constrains the displacement freedom of the product on the support 11, avoids positional deviation during transfer and inspection, and ensures accurate positioning for visual and electrical inspection.
[0037] In this embodiment, the support base 11 is provided with an adjustment groove 112, and the adjustment groove 112 is provided with multiple sets of mounting holes 113. The positioning block 111 can be connected to the support base 11 by selecting one set of mounting holes 113. The design of the adjustment groove 112 and multiple sets of mounting holes 113 allows the position of the positioning block 111 to be adjusted as needed, quickly adapting to the positioning requirements of products of different sizes, enhancing the versatility of the support mechanism 1 and reducing changeover time.
[0038] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The visual inspection mechanism 2 includes a detection component 21 and a vision drive component 22, which drives the detection component 21 to move. For example, the detection component 21 can be an existing visual inspection device. The vision drive component 22 drives the detection component 21 to move, expanding the scanning coverage of the visual mechanism. It can flexibly focus on different areas of the product for inspection, and improve the visual recognition capability of complex structures.
[0039] Please refer to Figure 6 The vision driving component 22 includes a first driving component 221 for driving the detection component 21 to move along a first direction X, a second driving component 222 for driving the detection component 21 to move along a second direction Y, and a third driving component 223 for driving the detection component 21 to move along a third direction Z. For example, the first driving component 221, the second driving component 222, and the third driving component 223 can all be existing linear driving modules. The three components work together to achieve precise full-domain movement of the detection component 21 in three-axis space, supporting multi-angle and multi-directional visual acquisition, and meeting the 3D inspection needs of highly complex products.
