Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field, specifically to a testing device for products based on the InserModing process. Background Technology

[0002] InserModing is a manufacturing process that involves pre-embedding metal, plastic, or other functional components into a mold, and then forming an integrated structure through injection molding. It is widely used in fields such as electronic connectors, precision automotive parts, and medical devices.

[0003] InserModing molds typically employ a "one mold, multiple cavities" design to improve production efficiency. This means that multiple products are produced in a single injection molding cycle. These products are connected together through a runner system to form a product array. After the InserModing molding process is completed, a series of post-processing steps are required for the continuous products, including cutting, inspection, cavity separation, and tray placement.

[0004] A search revealed Chinese patent CN214214547U, which discloses an auxiliary processing equipment for injection molds, including a machine base, a feeding mechanism, an inspection mechanism, a cutting mechanism, a robot arm, and a clamping mechanism. This patent uses a robot arm to drive the clamping mechanism to remove the insert from the feeding mechanism and send it to the inspection mechanism for inspection. After inspection, the insert is then sent into the cavity of the injection mold for injection molding. After injection molding, the clamping mechanism clamps the product to the cutting mechanism for cutting the material head. The entire production process is fully automated, with high production efficiency and low labor intensity for workers.

[0005] The aforementioned patent is similar to existing technology, but its detection function mainly focuses on verifying the dimensional accuracy of the insert, making the detection function too singular and unable to meet the quality control requirements of InsertModing products. For example, it cannot determine whether the product has appearance defects such as shrinkage, flash, missing material, or burning, or whether the plastic body completely covers the insert. It cannot judge and sort the complete quality of the final product, allowing potentially defective products to flow into subsequent stages. Moreover, the detection efficiency is low, as it can only detect a single insert. Based on this, a detection device based on InsertModing process products is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] Based on the above description, this utility model provides a testing device for products based on the InserModing process to solve the problems of limited testing functions and insufficient efficiency in the prior art.

[0007] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a testing equipment for products based on InserModing process, including a machine base, a carrier tape reel, a control panel and a testing module; The carrier tape and control panel are fixed on both sides of the machine tool. The detection module is located at the right end of the machine tool cavity. The left end of the machine tool cavity is provided with a cavitation and tray-swing module. The right end of the machine tool cavity and in front of the detection module is provided with a cutting module. The detection module includes a support plate that is vertically fixed to the bottom wall of the machine tool. A mounting base is fixed to the top of the support plate. A camera is fixed to the side of the mounting base away from the support plate. A reference plate is fixed to the middle of the support plate and directly below the mounting base. Two centrally symmetrical conveyor components for conveying products are provided on one side of the support plate. The upper surface of the reference plate has a central hole, and the axis of the central hole is aligned with the optical axis of the camera lens.

[0008] By integrating the cutting module, inspection module, sorting and tray placement module into the same machine, a compact continuous production line is formed. This reduces the time required for product transfer, positioning and waiting between processes, greatly improving production efficiency. The inspection module can inspect products in real time and remove defective products, while sorting qualified products into slots to ensure that all products in the tray placement stage are of good quality, thus ensuring the consistency of product quality.

[0009] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0010] Furthermore, the conveying component includes a first linear guide rail fixed to one side of the support plate, a first motor fixed to one side of the first linear guide rail, and a first screw rotatably connected to both ends of the inner cavity of the first linear guide rail via bearings. The output shaft of the first motor passes through and extends into the first linear guide rail and is fixed to the first screw. A guide block is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the first screw. The guide block is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the first linear guide rail. The top of the guide block passes through the first linear guide rail and extends to the opposite side of the two first linear guide rails and is fixed with a U-shaped movable plate. A cylinder is fixed to the bottom of the U-shaped movable plate. A slider is slidably connected to the top of the inner cavity of the U-shaped movable plate. The piston rod of the cylinder is fixed to the slider.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, the horizontal position of the U-shaped movable plate and the slider is adjusted by the cooperation between the No. 1 linear guide rail, the No. 1 screw and the guide block.

[0012] Furthermore, the upper surface of the slider is provided with four receiving grooves, which divide the slider into five parts. Additionally, both the upper surface and the receiving grooves are provided with placement slots, each containing a prism. The three middle sliders each have two receiving slots.

[0013] The above technical solution utilizes a prism to reflect light from a specific angle onto the bottom and sidewalls of the product, achieving multi-angle illumination and enhancing the comprehensiveness of product appearance inspection.

[0014] Furthermore, the inner cavity of the machine is provided with an adsorption component for feeding the tested product into the sizing and tray module; The adsorption component includes a second linear guide rail disposed in the inner cavity of the machine. A second motor is fixed to the right side of the second linear guide rail. A second screw is rotatably connected between the opposite sides of the left and right side walls of the inner cavity of the second linear guide rail via a bearing. A movable block is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the second screw. The movable block is slidably connected to the second linear guide rail. The top of the movable block penetrates the second linear guide rail and extends to the front side of the second linear guide rail, and a fixing plate is fixed thereon.

[0015] The above technical solution uses a second motor to drive a second screw, which in turn drives the movable block and the fixed plate to move in a straight line, thus transferring the cut product from the cutting station to the receiving slot at the inspection station.

[0016] Furthermore, a No. 3 linear guide rail is fixed to the front of the fixed plate, a No. 3 motor is fixed to the upper surface of the No. 3 linear guide rail, a No. 3 screw is rotatably connected between the inner top wall and the inner bottom wall of the No. 3 linear guide rail via a bearing, the output shaft of the No. 3 motor passes through the No. 3 linear guide rail and extends into the inner cavity of the No. 3 linear guide rail and is fixed to the No. 3 screw, a moving block is threaded to the outer surface of the No. 3 screw, and multiple suction nozzles are fixed on the moving block.

[0017] Through the above technical solution, the position of the moving block and its multiple suction nozzles in the vertical direction can be adjusted by driving the No. 3 screw with the No. 3 motor, thereby realizing the suction of the cut product and its precise movement into the receiving slot.

[0018] Furthermore, the first, second, and third linear guide rails are all cuboids with missing portions on their opposite sides, and the guide block, movable block, and moving block are all composed of U-shaped blocks and long plates.

[0019] Through the above technical solution, the combination of the U-shaped block and the long plate can be embedded in the three linear guide rails and form a stable sliding fit with the three linear guide rails on the missing side. While ensuring the accuracy of motion guidance, it effectively prevents the guide block, moving block and moving block from rotating during movement.

[0020] Furthermore, the upper and lower sides of the U-shaped block penetrate the opposite sides of the missing sections of the first, second, and third linear guide rails and are fixed to the long plate.

[0021] The above technical solution enables the U-shaped block and the long plate to form a closed frame that can clamp the side walls of the three linear guide rails in the middle, forming a stable connection.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial technical effects: By integrating the cutting module, inspection module, sorting and tray placement module into the same machine, a compact continuous production line is formed, which reduces the time required for product transfer, positioning and waiting between processes, and greatly improves production efficiency. The inspection module can simultaneously inspect the dimensional accuracy and appearance of multiple products in real time, and sort qualified products into slots to ensure that all products in the tray placement stage are good products, thus ensuring the consistency of product quality.

[0025] To facilitate understanding of this application, a more complete description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate embodiments of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure of this application will be thorough and complete.

[0026] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.

[0027] Example: Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The testing equipment for products based on InserModing process includes a machine base 1, a carrier reel 2, a control panel 3, and a testing module 4. The carrier reel 2 and the control panel 3 are fixed on both sides of the machine base 1, the testing module 4 is located at the right end of the inner cavity of the machine base 1, the left end of the inner cavity of the machine base 1 is provided with a sizing and tray-swinging module 5, and the right end of the inner cavity of the machine base 1 and in front of the testing module 4 is provided with a cutting module 6.

[0028] It should be noted that the cutting module 6 is equipped with a pressing module and a cutting module that position the product by a cylinder, as well as a feeding module that drives the suction nozzle to pick up and send the product into the detection module 4 by a motor-driven lead screw.

[0029] refer to Figure 4 The detection module 4 includes a support plate 41 vertically fixed to the bottom wall of the machine base 1. A mounting base 42 is fixed to the top of the support plate 41. A camera 43 is fixed to the side of the mounting base 42 away from the support plate 41. A reference plate 44 is fixed to the middle of the support plate 41 and directly below the mounting base 42. Two centrally symmetrical conveyor components for conveying products are provided on one side of the support plate 41. A central hole is opened on the upper surface of the reference plate 44. The axis of the central hole is aligned with the optical axis of the lens of the camera 43, ensuring that the imaging area of ​​the product is limited to the position corresponding to the central hole during each detection, thus avoiding positioning errors caused by reference changes.

[0030] refer to Figures 3 to 6The transmission component includes a first linear guide rail 45 fixed to one side of the support plate 41, a first motor 46 fixed to one side of the first linear guide rail 45, and a first screw 47 rotatably connected to both ends of the inner cavity of the first linear guide rail 45 via bearings. The output shaft of the first motor 46 passes through and extends into the first linear guide rail 45 and is fixed to the first screw 47. A guide block 48 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the first screw 47. The guide block 48 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the first linear guide rail 45. The top of the guide block 48 passes through the first linear guide rail 45 and extends to the opposite side of the two first linear guide rails 45 and is fixed to a U-shaped movable plate 49. A cylinder 410 is fixed to the bottom of the U-shaped movable plate 49. A slider 411 is slidably connected to the top of the inner cavity of the U-shaped movable plate 49. The piston rod of the cylinder 410 is fixed to the slider 411.

[0031] In addition, the two No. 1 motors 46 in the two conveying components are respectively fixed on opposite sides of the two No. 1 linear guide rails 45, and the two U-shaped movable plates 49 move in opposite directions or relative to each other in the inner cavity of the two No. 1 linear guide rails 45, so that the products on the two sliders 411 can be staggered and photographed and inspected on the lower side of the central hole, thereby improving the inspection efficiency.

[0032] It should be noted that the cylinder 410 can adjust the position of the slider 411 within the U-shaped movable plate 49. By moving the piston rod of the cylinder 410 upward, the slider 411 can be pushed to slide upward within the U-shaped movable plate 49, thereby increasing the height of the product.

[0033] refer to Figure 5 The upper surface of the slider 411 has four receiving slots 412. The receiving slots 412 can be used to initially detect the dimensional accuracy of the product. The four receiving slots 412 divide the slider 411 into five parts, and the upper surface and the receiving slots 412 are all provided with placement slots. The placement slots contain prisms 413. By utilizing the three-sided reflection characteristics of the prisms 413, the light source is decomposed into multiple incident light paths at different angles, realizing the illumination of the bottom groove, side wall texture and complex three-dimensional contour of the product. This helps to discover minor defects on the product and ensures the accuracy of the product appearance inspection. The three middle sliders 411 each have two receiving slots 412.

[0034] When the product enters the cutting module 6 through the carrier tray 2, the cutting module 6 can position the product and perform a side cut. The side-cut product can enter the inner cavity of the receiving groove 412 under the adsorption effect of the internal structure of the cutting module 6. At this time, the output shaft of the first motor 46 rotates, driving the first screw 47 to rotate. The rotation of the first screw 47 causes the guide block 48 threaded on its surface to move linearly. The two guide blocks 48 move back to back, and the movement of the guide blocks 48 synchronously drives the U-shaped movable plate 49 to move. The movement of the U-shaped movable plate 49 can move the slider 411 and the receiving groove 412 opened on the slider 411, so that the product placed in the receiving groove 412 can move accordingly. When the product passes through the center hole, the camera 43 can take a picture of the product, thereby completing the product inspection.

[0035] refer to Figure 7 The inner cavity of the machine 1 is equipped with an adsorption component for feeding the tested product into the sorting and tray module 5. The adsorption component includes a second linear guide rail 71 set in the inner cavity of the machine 1. A second motor 72 is fixed on the right side of the second linear guide rail 71. A second screw 73 is rotatably connected between the opposite sides of the left and right side walls of the inner cavity of the second linear guide rail 71 through a bearing. A movable block 74 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the second screw 73. The movable block 74 is slidably connected to the second linear guide rail 71. The top of the movable block 74 passes through the second linear guide rail 71 and extends to the front side of the second linear guide rail 71 and is fixed with a fixing plate 75.

[0036] The fixed plate 75 has a No. 3 linear guide rail 76 fixed on its front side. A No. 3 motor 77 is fixed on the upper surface of the No. 3 linear guide rail 76. A No. 3 screw 78 is rotatably connected between the inner top wall and the inner bottom wall of the No. 3 linear guide rail 76 via a bearing. The output shaft of the No. 3 motor 77 passes through the No. 3 linear guide rail 76 and extends into the inner cavity of the No. 3 linear guide rail 76 and is fixed to the No. 3 screw 78. A moving block 79 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the No. 3 screw 78. Multiple suction nozzles 710 are fixed on the moving block 79. A No. 2 motor 72 drives the movable block 74 to move along the X-axis, sending the suction nozzles 710 to the top of the detection station. The No. 3 motor 77 drives the moving block 79 and the suction nozzles 710 to move along the Z-axis, realizing precise downward suction and upward release actions.

[0037] In this embodiment, the first linear guide rail 45, the second linear guide rail 71, and the third linear guide rail 76 are all cuboids with missing portions on their opposite sides. The guide block 48, the movable block 74, and the moving block 79 are all composed of U-shaped blocks and long plates. The upper and lower sides of the U-shaped block penetrate the missing portions on the opposite sides of the first linear guide rail 45, the second linear guide rail 71, and the third linear guide rail 76 and are fixed to the long plate. This allows the guide block 48, the movable block 74, and the moving block 79 to be directly engaged with the three linear guide rails from the side, ensuring the stability of the installation.

[0038] In use, starting motor 77 causes the output shaft of motor 77 to rotate, which in turn rotates screw 78. The rotation of screw 78 causes the moving block 79, which is threaded onto its surface, to move downward. The downward movement of moving block 79 simultaneously moves multiple suction nozzles 710 downward, thereby adjusting the vertical position of suction nozzles 710 until they adsorb the tested product. Then, starting motor 72 causes the output shaft of motor 72 to rotate, which in turn rotates screw 73. The rotation of screw 73 causes the moving block 74, which is threaded onto its surface, to move. At this time, the moving block 74 moves linearly to the left under the action of linear guide rail 71. The movement of moving block 74 causes the fixed plate 75 to move, which in turn causes the fixed plate 75 to move to the left, causing the suction nozzles 710 to transfer the good product into the sorting and tray module 5.

[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
