Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of feeding systems, specifically to an intelligent visual recognition feeding system for spark plug ceramic parts. Background Technology

[0002] Spark plugs are one of the key components of an engine, and their performance and quality directly affect the engine's operating efficiency and reliability. As an important part of spark plugs, ceramic spark plug parts have properties such as insulation, high temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance. Their manufacturing process requires high precision and quality control. In the traditional production process of ceramic spark plug parts, the feeding and inspection processes usually rely on manual operation, which has the following problems.

[0003] Manual feeding and inspection are slow and cannot meet the needs of large-scale production. Manual operation is prone to fatigue, leading to operational errors and affecting production efficiency. Manual inspection cannot guarantee the accuracy and consistency of inspection results, and is prone to missed inspections and false inspections. During manual operation, ceramic parts are easily bumped and damaged, affecting product quality. Long-term repetitive labor can easily lead to operator fatigue, further reducing work efficiency and increasing production costs. Therefore, an intelligent visual recognition feeding system for spark plug ceramic parts is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0018] 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.

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 2 The spark plug ceramic part intelligent visual recognition feeding system in this embodiment includes a first transmission device 1, a feeding component 2 on the first transmission device 1, and a plurality of separator rubber strips 3 fixed on the first transmission device 1.

[0020] In this embodiment, multiple separating rubber strips 3 are evenly distributed on the first transmission device 1.

[0021] Please see Figure 3 In this embodiment, the feeding component 2 includes a support frame 201 fixed to the back of the first transmission device 1, a controller 202 fixed to the upper surface of the support frame 201, a detection element provided on the top wall of the inner cavity of the support frame 201, a gripping robotic arm 203 provided on the rear side of the right side of the first transmission device 1, and a second conveying device 204 provided on the rear side of the gripping robotic arm 203.

[0022] Specifically, the testing component includes a cylinder 205 fixed to the top wall of the inner cavity of the support frame 201. A mounting bracket 206 is fixed to the outside of the piston rod of the cylinder 205. Industrial cameras 207 are fixed to the front, back, left and right walls of the inner cavity of the mounting bracket 206. The four industrial cameras 207, the cylinder 205, the first transmission device 1, the gripping robotic arm 203 and the second transmission device 204 are all electrically connected to the controller 202 through wires.

[0023] Specifically, the gripping robotic arm 203 includes a robotic arm body, on which two connecting plates are fixed. An electric push rod is fixed on one side of each connecting plate. The outer side of the output shaft of each electric push rod slides through the connecting plate and extends to the other side of the connecting plate. A clamping plate is fixed on the outer side of the output shaft of each electric push rod. The clamping plate includes a clamping plate with an anti-slip rubber layer fixed on it. The mounting frame 206 includes a U-shaped frame with a ring frame fixed at the bottom end. The cylinder 205 is located on the longitudinal central axis of the support frame 201. The four industrial cameras 207 are all designed to tilt downwards towards each other for all-round inspection of spark plug ceramic parts.

[0024] Specifically, the spark plug ceramic parts are transported to the inspection area via the first transmission device 1. The first transmission device 1 is fixed with multiple separating rubber strips 3, which can separate the ceramic parts and prevent them from colliding with each other during the transmission process, thereby reducing damage. When the ceramic parts arrive at the inspection area, the cylinder 205 drives the mounting bracket 206 to descend, so that four industrial cameras 207 approach the ceramic parts. The four industrial cameras 207 are designed to tilt downwards towards each other, which can perform all-round inspection of the ceramic parts from different angles. The four industrial cameras 207 use visual recognition technology to check the appearance, size, defects, etc. of the ceramic parts. The inspection results are transmitted to the controller 202 via wires. The controller 202 determines whether the ceramic parts are qualified based on the inspection results.

[0025] Specifically, the first transmission device 1, the gripping robotic arm 203, and the second transmission device 204 are all located on the ground. Defective products on the first transmission device 1 can be collected into an external recycling bin.

[0026] It should be noted that if the test results show that the ceramic part is qualified, the gripping robotic arm 203 moves to the designated position according to the instructions of the controller 202 and grips the qualified ceramic part. The gripping plate of the gripping robotic arm 203 has an anti-slip rubber layer to ensure that the gripping process is stable and does not damage the ceramic part. The gripped ceramic part is placed on the second conveying device 204 and continues to be transported to the next process. If the test results show that the ceramic part is unqualified, the ceramic part will be transported to the designated recycling or processing area.

[0027] Furthermore, all electrical components appearing in this embodiment are electrically connected to the controller 202 and the power supply. The controller 202 can be a conventional known device such as a computer that plays a control role. Those skilled in the art can control the electrical components through simple programming. Moreover, the existing publicly available power connection technology is also common knowledge in the field. Therefore, the specific structural composition and working principle will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0028] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows: In use, the spark plug ceramic parts are transported to the inspection area via the first transmission device 1. Multiple separating rubber strips 3 are fixed to the first transmission device 1 to separate the ceramic parts, preventing them from colliding during transport and thus reducing damage. When the ceramic parts arrive at the inspection area, cylinder 205 drives the mounting bracket 206 to descend, bringing four industrial cameras 207 closer to the ceramic parts. The four industrial cameras 207 are designed to tilt downwards towards each other, enabling omnidirectional inspection of the ceramic parts from different angles. Using visual recognition technology, the four industrial cameras 207 inspect the appearance, dimensions, and defects of the ceramic parts. The test results are transmitted to the controller 202 via wires. The controller 202 determines whether the ceramic part is qualified based on the test results. If the test results show that the ceramic part is qualified, the gripping robotic arm 203 moves to the designated position according to the instructions of the controller 202 and grips the qualified ceramic part. The gripping plate of the gripping robotic arm 203 has an anti-slip rubber layer to ensure that the gripping process is stable and does not damage the ceramic part. The gripped ceramic part is placed on the second conveying device 204 and continues to be conveyed to the next process. If the test results show that the ceramic part is unqualified, the ceramic part will be conveyed to the designated recycling or processing area.
