Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic processing equipment technology, and more specifically to a rotary clamping device for appearance inspection of tubular ceramic parts. Background Technology

[0002] Ceramic parts refer to mechanical components made from special ceramic materials such as oxide ceramics, nitride ceramics, boride ceramics, and carbide ceramics through mixing, molding, sintering, and processing. They possess properties such as high strength, high hardness, high elastic modulus, high temperature resistance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, and thermal shock resistance.

[0003] In existing tubular ceramic fittings, after processing, the outer surface needs to be inspected to see if it meets the processing requirements and whether there are any problems such as bumps or cracks.

[0004] The existing method involves manual observation with the eyes, which is labor-intensive and cannot detect small cracks on the outer wall of the tube. Therefore, some methods use industrial cameras for observation, which requires manual placement of the ceramic tube under the camera. In addition, when observing one side, it is necessary to manually flip it over, which is very troublesome and inefficient. Utility Model Content

It can perform continuous inspection and can automatically clamp and rotate tubular ceramic parts without manual flipping, which greatly reduces the difficulty of inspection and the amount of manual labor.

[0021] Furthermore, a vertical sensing plate 1 is fixed on the outer wall of the horizontal rotating disk 13 at each clamping device. The bottom of the vertical sensing plate 1 is lower than the bottom surface of the horizontal rotating disk 13. A connecting seat is fixed on the top surface of the top plate of the frame 10 below one of the vertical sensing plates 1. A slotted photoelectric sensor 2 is fixed on the connecting seat. The lower part of the vertical sensing plate 1 is inserted into the sensing slot of the slotted photoelectric sensor 2 and is sensed by the slotted photoelectric sensor 2.

[0022] Furthermore, the clamping device includes a first vertical fixing plate 30 fixed to the outer and middle parts of one side of the horizontal rotating disk 13. A drive motor 31 is fixed to the outer wall of the outer first vertical fixing plate 30. The inner end of the shaft of the drive motor 31 extends out of the inner wall of the corresponding first vertical fixing plate 30 and is fixed with an elastic clamping connector 32. A fixing seat is fixed on the top surface of the horizontal rotating disk 13 at the outer side of the corresponding middle first vertical fixing plate 30. A clamping first electric cylinder 33 is fixed on the top surface of the fixing seat. The push rod of the first electric cylinder 33 is inserted into the middle through hole of the middle first vertical fixing plate 30. The end of the push rod of the first electric cylinder 33 extends out of the inner wall of the corresponding first vertical fixing plate 30 and is movably connected to a second elastic clamping connector 34. The tubular ceramic part 100 is clamped between the elastic clamping connector 32 and the second elastic clamping connector 34. The drive motor 31 can also be a servo motor.

[0023] Furthermore, the middle of the opposite wall surfaces of the elastic clamping connector 32 and the second elastic clamping connector 34 are each formed with a middle clamping post 35.

[0026] In this embodiment, clamping devices are installed on the left, right, front, and rear of the horizontal rotating disk 13. The clamping device on the left is located directly below the industrial camera 23. It can install the tubular ceramic part 100 to be inspected on the right side. First, one end of the tubular ceramic part 100 is inserted into the middle clamping post 35 of the elastic clamping connector 32. Then, the push rod of the first electric cylinder 33 pushes the middle clamping post 35 of the second elastic clamping connector 34 into the other end of the tubular ceramic part 100. The opposite end faces of the elastic clamping connector 32 and the second elastic clamping connector 34 press against the two ends of the tubular ceramic part 100 to achieve installation. Then, the horizontal rotating disk 13 is rotated horizontally by the operation of the rotary motor 14. The lower part of the vertical sensing plate 1 is inserted into the sensing slot of the slotted photoelectric sensor 2 and is sensed by the slotted photoelectric sensor 2, indicating that it has moved into place. At this time, the corresponding tubular ceramic part 100 will be directly below the industrial camera 23. The height of the industrial camera 23 can be adjusted by raising and lowering the push rod of the electric cylinder 22 to meet the user's observation needs. During observation, the tubular ceramic part 100 can be rotated by running the drive motor 31, thereby changing the position of its side wall, so that the entire outer side wall of the tubular ceramic part 100 can be observed in 360°. After completion, the horizontal rotating disk 13 is rotated horizontally by running the rotary motor 14, so that the next tubular ceramic part 100 is in place and then detected. The detection effect is good, the efficiency is high, and no manual rotation is required.

[0027] The tubular ceramic component 100 that reaches the rear workstation can be removed by retracting the push rod of the corresponding first electric cylinder 33, which is very convenient for unloading.
