Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model particularly relates to a rotary transfer device for product inspection. Background Technology

[0002] In manufacturing, especially on production lines involving precision machining or assembly, quality inspection of final products is a crucial step in ensuring a high pass rate. Currently, the mainstream inspection methods still largely rely on manual operation. The specific process is as follows: after a product has been processed or positioned on the production equipment, the entire production line or equipment must be stopped; subsequently, inspectors must enter the mechanical working area of ​​the equipment, manually remove the product to be inspected from the workstation or fixture, and transfer it to a specific inspection area (such as near a well-lit display board) for visual or simple tool inspection. However, this operating method presents the following two safety hazards: 1. Inspectors need to enter the mechanical working area of ​​the equipment, manually remove the products to be inspected from the workstation or fixture, and transfer them to a specific inspection area (such as near a well-lit signboard) for visual or simple tool inspection, which poses a high safety hazard. 2. Repeatedly stopping and starting the machine will put a huge load on the machine's circuitry, severely damaging the equipment's lifespan. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the present invention proposes a rotary transfer device for product inspection.

[0004] A rotary transfer device for product inspection includes a mounting bracket, a base rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket, a workpiece clamping device mounted on the base, an illumination device mounted on the side of the mounting bracket, and a rotary drive mechanism mounted on the mounting bracket for driving the base to rotate, wherein when the rotary drive mechanism drives the base to rotate, the workpiece clamped by the workpiece clamping device is transferred to the area below the illumination device.

[0005] Preferably, the workpiece clamping device includes a clamping power mechanism disposed on the base, a clamping block connected to the clamping power mechanism, and a mating part disposed on the base and cooperating with the clamping block. The clamping power mechanism is used to drive the clamping block to move toward or away from the mating part to achieve the release or clamping of the workpiece.

[0006] Preferably, the clamping block and the mating part are respectively provided with anti-slip structures on their opposite surfaces, and the two together clamp the workpiece.

[0007] Preferably, the clamping power mechanism is configured to drive the clamping block to rotate, so that the anti-slip structure on the clamping block is disposed opposite to the anti-slip structure on the mating part.

[0008] Preferably, the clamping power mechanism is a rotary motor.

[0009] Preferably, the anti-slip structure is an anti-slip texture.

[0010] Preferably, the lighting device is an LED yellow light.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The rotary drive mechanism of this invention rotates the base, automatically transferring the workpiece to a fixed inspection station (below the lighting device), eliminating the frequent "stop-retrieve-start" steps required for traditional manual inspection. This avoids the impact load on the equipment circuitry caused by repeated start-stop cycles, helps extend the equipment's service life, and enables automated transfer and positioning-assisted inspection of products without stopping the machine or requiring personnel to enter the equipment's working area.

[0019] A rotary transfer device for product inspection includes a mounting bracket 1, a base 2 rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 1, a workpiece clamping device mounted on the base 2, an illumination device 3 mounted on the side of the mounting bracket 1, and a rotary drive mechanism 4 mounted on the mounting bracket 1 for driving the base 2 to rotate. When the rotary drive mechanism 4 drives the base 2 to rotate, the workpiece clamped by the workpiece clamping device is transferred to the area below the illumination device 3.

[0020] Furthermore, the workpiece clamping device includes a clamping power mechanism 51 disposed on the base 2, a clamping block 52 connected to the clamping power mechanism 51, and a mating part 53 disposed on the base 2 and cooperating with the clamping block 52. The clamping power mechanism 51 is used to drive the clamping block 52 to move toward or away from the mating part 53 to achieve the release or clamping of the workpiece.

[0021] Furthermore, anti-slip structures 523 are respectively provided on the opposing surfaces of the clamping block 52 and the mating part 53, and the two together clamp the workpiece.

[0022] Furthermore, the clamping power mechanism 51 is configured to drive the clamping block 52 to rotate, so that the anti-slip structure 523 on the clamping block 52 is disposed opposite to the anti-slip structure 523 on the mating part 53.

[0023] Furthermore, the clamping power mechanism 51 is a rotary motor.

[0024] Furthermore, the anti-slip structure 523 is an anti-slip texture.

[0025] Furthermore, the lighting device 3 is an LED yellow light.

[0026] A rotary transfer device for product inspection, such as Figure 1 As shown, it mainly includes a mounting bracket 1, a base 2, a workpiece clamping device, a lighting device 3, and a rotary drive mechanism 4.

[0027] The base 2 is rotatably mounted on the top of the mounting bracket 1 via a slewing bearing 1-1. The rotation drive mechanism 4 is a motor, which drives the base 2 to rotate via the slewing bearing 1-1.

[0028] As in Embodiment 1, four workpiece clamping devices are distributed along the length of the base 2. Each workpiece clamping device includes a cylinder, a clamping block 52, and a mating part 53. The clamping block 52 is connected to the cylinder, and the opposing surfaces of the clamping block 52 and the mating part 53 are machined with interlaced anti-slip textures (anti-slip structure 523). The cylinder drives the clamping block 52 to rotate, so that its anti-slip textures are aligned with the anti-slip textures of the mating part 53 to form a clamping area.

[0029] The lighting device 3 can be an LED yellow light strip, which is installed on one side of the mounting bracket 1, with its illumination center aligned with a specific station (inspection station 1-2) on the rotation trajectory of the base 2.

[0030] Workflow: The operator places the workpiece to be inspected (i.e., the product) between the clamping block 52 and the mating part 53 of the idle workpiece clamping device. The control cylinder drives the clamping block 52 to rotate, so that it aligns with the anti-slip texture on the mating part 53, thereby firmly clamping the workpiece. The anti-slip texture effectively prevents the workpiece from sliding or rotating during the rotation process.

[0031] The rotary drive mechanism 4 (motor) is started, driving the base 2 to rotate 180° horizontally. A clamping device holding a workpiece is moved from other stations (such as machine working areas 1-3) to inspection station 1-2 below the lighting device 3.

[0032] At inspection stations 1-2, lighting device 3 (LED yellow light) provides soft yellow illumination. Yellow light has a longer wavelength and is less prone to glare, effectively highlighting the texture, scratches, or defects on the workpiece surface, allowing inspectors to observe workpiece details from different angles. At this time, inspectors can visually inspect the workpiece stationary at this station or use tools for inspection. After the inspection process is completed, the rotary drive mechanism 4 drives the base 2 to rotate again, moving the inspected workpiece out of the inspection area below the lighting device 3.

[0033] The rotary drive mechanism 4 of this invention drives the base 2 to rotate, which can automatically transfer the workpiece to a fixed inspection station (below the lighting device 3), eliminating the frequent "stop-retrieve-start" steps required for traditional manual inspection. This avoids the impact load on the equipment circuit caused by repeated start-stop, helps to extend the service life of the equipment, and realizes automated transfer and positioning auxiliary inspection of products without stopping the machine or requiring personnel to enter the equipment's working area.

[0034] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes or modifications can be made to the present invention without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention as defined by the claims. Therefore, the detailed description of the embodiments in this disclosure is for explanation only and not for limiting the present invention, but rather the scope of protection is defined by the content of the claims.
