Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of visual inspection technology, specifically a visual light source device for multi-face synchronous inspection. Background Technology

[0002] In the industrial production sector, product quality control is of paramount importance. Industrial visual inspection is a key means of ensuring product quality. Various defects that may appear on the product surface, such as scratches, stains, and dimensional deviations, can negatively affect the product's performance, appearance, and lifespan. Therefore, accurately and efficiently detecting these defects is a necessary step to ensure that products meet quality standards.

[0003] However, the light source designs used in current industrial vision inspection technologies have significant limitations. Most existing vision inspection light sources use a single-direction illumination method, which means that they can only inspect a single face of the product at a time. If comprehensive inspection of multiple faces of a product is required, mechanical structures must be used to repeatedly flip the product or frequently move the light source and camera to achieve the purpose of inspecting each face in turn.

[0004] This traditional inspection method has many drawbacks. First, the inspection efficiency is extremely low, as only one surface can be inspected at a time, making the entire process time-consuming. Second, positioning errors are a significant problem. During multiple product flips or movements of the light source and camera, the product is prone to positional shifts. These shifts make it difficult to accurately match the inspection data from different surfaces, thus affecting the accuracy and reliability of defect detection. Finally, labor and equipment costs are high. To achieve product flipping or movement of the light source and camera, a dedicated flipping or moving mechanism is required, increasing both equipment investment and labor costs.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multi-faceted synchronous detection visual light source device, comprising a main base and a camera, wherein the camera is fixed on one side of the main base, and a prism base is fixed on the side of the main base near the camera. A triangular prism is provided inside the prism base, and a multi-layer LED bead assembly is provided on one side of the prism base. A prism middle ring is provided at the outer end of the multi-layer LED bead assembly, and a combined prism base is provided at the center of one side of the prism middle ring. A triangular combined prism is provided on one side of the combined prism base, and the triangular combined prism includes four prisms, which are evenly arranged circumferentially on the combined prism base.

[0008] Furthermore, the blue and green LEDs have a light emission angle of 20°, and the red LED has a light emission angle of 25°.

[0009] Furthermore, the triangular prism is a 30mm triangular prism with a light transmittance of 92% or more. The cross-section of the triangular prism is an isosceles right triangle with a right-angled side length of 30mm. The inclined surface faces the product detection area and is used to reflect the image of the front of the product to the camera.

[0010] Furthermore, the triangular combination prism consists of four 3mm triangular prisms, the light transmittance of the triangular combination prism is greater than or equal to 92%, the cross-section of the 3mm triangular prism is an isosceles right triangle with a right-angled side length of 3mm; the four prisms correspond to the four sides of the product respectively, and are used to reflect the image of each side to the triangular prism.

[0011] Furthermore, a camera base is fixed to one side of the main body base, the camera is fixed on the camera base, and a lens is provided at one end of the camera, the lens facing the inclined surface of the triangular prism.

The prism 7 has an isosceles right triangle cross-section with 30mm legs, and its inclined surface faces the product inspection area, reflecting the image of the product's front to the camera 4. Simultaneously, it receives the side images of the product reflected from four 3mm triangular prisms and combines them for reflection onto the lens 5.

[0027] A multi-layer LED assembly is provided on one side of the prism base 6. This assembly includes a first base 8, which is fixed to one end of the prism base 6. Blue LEDs 9 are fixed to the inner walls of the first base 8. A second base 10 is located at one end of the first base 8, with green LEDs 11 fixed to its inner walls. A third base 12 is located at one end of the second base 10, with red LEDs 13 fixed to its inner walls. One end of the third base 12 is connected to the prism's central ring 14. The LEDs are mounted on corresponding PCB boards. The three layers of LEDs, each with a different color, correspond to the illumination requirements of different sides of the product. Blue LEDs 9 are suitable for detecting defects on metal surfaces, green LEDs 11 are suitable for detecting textures in plastic parts, and red LEDs 13 are suitable for detecting internal defects in transparent parts.

[0034] When multi-face simultaneous inspection of a product is required, this invention first places the product to be inspected in the central inspection area of ​​the device, that is, in the space enclosed by four 3mm triangular prisms directly below a 30mm triangular prism. The image of the front of the product is directly reflected to the lens by the 30mm triangular prism. The images of the four sides of the product are reflected to the 30mm triangular prism by their respective 3mm triangular prisms, and then collected and reflected to the lens by the 30mm triangular prisms. The blue, green, and red light emitted by the multi-layer LED assembly can be selected in single or multiple colors according to the inspection requirements, illuminating the product surface at a specific angle to avoid the light from the LEDs directly entering the prisms and causing reflection. The lens receives the five images and transmits them to the camera, realizing the simultaneous inspection of the five sides of the product.

[0035] By combining a 30mm triangular prism with four 3mm triangular prisms, imaging and inspection of the front and four sides of the product can be achieved simultaneously without the need for multiple flipping or moving of the product, improving inspection efficiency by more than 400%; excellent anti-reflective performance: the LEDs are designed with specific angles, 20° for blue and green and 25° for red, to avoid direct light entering the prism and causing reflection, ensuring image clarity.
