Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of visual inspection technology for paper tape machines, specifically a visual inspection device for paper tape machines. Background Technology

[0002] The paper tape machine vision inspection device is a device that integrates machine vision technology and is used to automatically inspect the surface quality, dimensional accuracy, and printing patterns of paper tape during or after the paper tape production process.

[0003] Currently, most paper tape machine vision inspection devices adopt an integrated closed structure design for the outer shell and internal core components, or are rigidly connected to the internal frame through multiple sets of concealed screws and buckles. When internal components malfunction, the staff must first disassemble the protective panel on the outside of the device. Due to the relatively narrow internal space, it is inconvenient for staff to operate with hand tools. The entire disassembly process often requires the assistance of special tools and takes a long time. For the production line, long-term downtime will directly lead to a decrease in production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model is a visual inspection device for a paper tape machine, comprising:

[0034] Inspection instrument 11;

[0035] When the paper tape moves to the inspection area, the image acquisition system installed at the front end of the inspection instrument 11 starts working. The light source provides specific illumination according to the characteristics of the paper tape. At the same time, the high-definition industrial camera installed at the bottom of the inspection instrument 11 captures an image of the paper tape surface under the trigger of the control system. The lens focuses the light onto the camera sensor to form a clear digital image. The image is quickly transmitted to the image processing system via the image acquisition card. It is first preprocessed, and the noise reduction algorithm removes ambient light interference or sensor noise. Geometric correction corrects the image distortion caused by the paper tape offset. Gray-scale enhancement highlights the difference between the defect and the normal area.

[0036] Among them, the model of the inspection instrument 11 is VCTA-A410;

[0037] Auxiliary structure: The auxiliary structure includes guide groove 21, protective cover 22, limiting hole 23 and slide groove 24;

[0038] Guide grooves 21 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the inspection instrument 11, protective cover 22 is slidably connected to the top of the inspection instrument 11, limiting holes 23 are provided at both ends of the inspection instrument 11, and sliding grooves 24 are provided at both ends of the bottom of the inspection instrument 11.

[0039] The auxiliary structure also includes a spring block 25, a guide block 26, and a spring latch 27;

[0040] Spring block 25 is slidably connected to the inside of slide groove 24, guide block 26 is fixedly connected to both sides of one end of protective cover 22, and spring buckle 27 is fixedly connected to the inside of one end of protective cover 22;

[0041] The guide block 26 is slidably connected to the inside of the guide groove 21. The limiting hole 23 and the spring buckle 27 are engaged. The limiting hole 23 and the slide groove 24 are interconnected. The guide groove 21 is used to provide space for the guide block 26 to slide.

[0042] With the auxiliary cooperation between the guide groove 21 and the protective cover 22, when the two sets of protective covers 22 are slid, the guide block 26 can be guided to slide inside the guide groove 21, and the spring buckle 27 is engaged inside the limiting hole 23.

[0043] Working principle: When staff are inspecting the device;

[0044] First, release the installation between the protective cover 22 and the eleventh, and simultaneously slide the two sets of protective covers 22. While sliding the two sets of protective covers 22, the guide block 26 can be guided and slid inside the guide groove 21.

[0045] Next, when one end of the protective cover 22 is attached to the outside of the inspection instrument 11, the spring buckle 27 fixedly connected to one end of the protective cover 22 can be engaged inside the limiting hole 23, thereby limiting the two sets of protective covers 22. After maintenance, the spring block 25 inside the sliding groove 24 can be used to squeeze the spring buckle 27 engaged inside the limiting hole 23, thereby releasing the limitation formed between the protective cover 22 and the inspection instrument 11.

[0046] This step allows staff to easily inspect and repair the components installed inside the inspection instrument 11, and provides them with ample space for maintenance.

[0047] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment, based on the above embodiment, also includes a limiting structure:

[0048] The limiting structure includes a rotating gear 31 and a threaded rod 32;

[0049] The rotating gear 31 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the inspection instrument 11, and the threaded rod 32 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating gear 31.

[0050] The limiting structure also includes a screw block 33 and a toothed plate 34;

[0051] The screw block 33 is threaded to one end of the threaded rod 32, and the toothed plate 34 is fixedly connected to the inside of the protective cover 22.

[0052] The bottom of the screw block 33 fits against the inner wall of the inspection instrument 11, the threaded rod 32 and the screw block 33 are set on the same central axis, and the toothed plate 34 and the rotating gear 31 are meshed.

[0053] The rotating gear 31 and the toothed plate 34 are meshed together, the threaded rod 32 and the screw block 33 are set on the same central axis, and the bottom of the screw block 33 is in contact with the inner wall of the inspection instrument 11.

[0054] With the auxiliary cooperation between the rotating gear 31 and the threaded rod 32, the rotating gear 31 can rotate when the protective cover 22 slides, so that the screw block 33 can slide along the threaded trajectory outside the threaded rod 32.

[0055] Working principle: When the operator slides the two sets of protective covers 22;

[0056] First, the protective cover 22 can slide while simultaneously driving the toothed plate 34 to slide, allowing the toothed plate 34 to mesh with the rotating gear 31 during the sliding process.

[0057] Next, the rotating gear 31 can rotate while driving the threaded rod 32 to rotate, and the screw block 33 can slide along the threaded trajectory outside the threaded rod 32, so that the two sets of screw blocks 33 can release the limit formed by the internal installed devices of the inspection instrument 11.

[0058] This step helps staff quickly limit and retrieve the components installed inside the 11.

[0059] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to any specific implementation. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of this utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
