Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tank defect detection technology, specifically relating to a tank pinhole detection device. Background Technology

[0002] Two-piece aluminum cans are widely used in the food and beverage industries due to their advantages such as light weight, high strength, and good barrier properties. However, during the production process, pinhole defects may appear on the can body and bottom due to factors such as raw material quality and processing technology. Although these pinholes are small, they can seriously affect the can's sealing performance, leading to leakage and spoilage of the contents, and greatly reducing product quality.

[0003] Currently, optical inspection machines are commonly used in aluminum two-piece can production lines to detect and reject perforated cans, which improves inspection efficiency to some extent. However, in actual production, optical inspection machines are limited by their detection principle, environmental interference, and their own parameter settings, resulting in some false rejections and missed rejections. Some qualified aluminum two-piece cans are mistakenly identified as perforated cans and rejected, causing unnecessary waste of raw materials and increased production costs; some cans with pinhole defects go undetected and may enter the market, easily affecting product quality.

[0004] Currently, manual visual inspection is commonly used to check whether rejected cans by optical inspection machines are normal. Specifically, workers stand next to the production line, hold the can in their hands, and use natural light or ordinary indoor lighting to visually inspect the can's body and bottom surface for pinhole defects. To improve the clarity of observation, a handheld magnifying glass of 10x to 20x magnification is used in some scenarios to assist in the inspection. During the inspection, workers need to continuously rotate the can to ensure that no part of the can's side, bottom arc transition area, etc., is missed. Manual sampling inspection is not only inefficient but also greatly affected by human factors, making it difficult to comprehensively and accurately determine whether rejected cans are normal, and it cannot effectively solve the problems caused by optical inspection machines mistakenly rejecting or missing cans.

[0005] Currently, there is an urgent need to develop a device for detecting pinholes in cans to check for pinhole defects and prevent substandard cans from entering the market. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the aforementioned problems in the prior art, this utility model provides a can pinhole detection device, which can check whether the can has pinhole defects, thereby preventing substandard cans from entering the market.

[0007] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: A device for detecting pinholes in a tank includes a housing, a reflective film, and a light source module. The reflective film is disposed inside the housing. The light source module is disposed inside the housing. The housing has a through hole for placing the tank. The light source module emits light to irradiate and detect the tank at the through hole. The reflective film reflects the light emitted by the light source module.

[0008] Furthermore, the internal walls of the enclosure are covered with the reflective film.

[0009] Furthermore, the reflective film includes nanoscale reflective units, which are uniformly disposed on the surface of the reflective film, and the size range of the nanoscale reflective units is 1 nm to 100 nm.

[0010] Furthermore, the reflectivity of the reflective film is ≥95%.

[0011] Furthermore, the light source module includes a light-emitting unit, which is arranged in a 360° ring on the surface of the light source module.

[0012] Furthermore, the light emitted by the light source module has an illuminance of 2000 lux to 3000 lux.

[0013] Furthermore, the light source module faces the through hole and is disposed inside the housing.

[0014] Furthermore, the housing is provided with a fixing part; the fixing part is provided with mounting holes for fixing the position.

[0015] Furthermore, the diameter of the through hole matches the outer diameter of the tank body to be tested.

[0016] Furthermore, the can body pinhole detection device is used to detect pinholes on the can body, wherein the pinhole diameter is ≥0.05mm.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: A device for detecting pinholes in cans involves placing the can into a through-hole during testing. A light source module inside the device illuminates the can, while a reflective film reflects the light emitted by the light source module to create a uniform lighting environment. By shining light onto the can, operators can check for pinholes that allow light to pass through, quickly determining whether the can has pinhole defects and preventing substandard cans from entering the market.

The light source module 3 emits light to illuminate and detect the can 4 at the through hole 111. The reflective film 2 reflects the light emitted by the light source module 3. The can 4 has a body 41 and a bottom 42. This invention quickly determines whether a can 4 has pinhole defects by checking for light transmission through pinholes, thus preventing substandard cans from entering the market.

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 2 In one embodiment, the inner wall of the housing 1 is covered with the reflective film 2 (except for the position where the light source module 3 is placed).

[0025] In one embodiment, the reflective film 2 has a reflectivity of ≥95%; the interior of the box 1 is fully covered with a high reflectivity (≥95%) reflective film 2, which can reflect the light emitted by the light source module 3 at multiple angles, thereby creating a uniform lighting environment inside the box 1, which is beneficial for detecting pinhole defects on the tank 4.

[0026] In one embodiment, the light source module 3 is fastened to the screw holes on the inner wall of the housing 1 by screws, which helps to ensure the stability of the light source module 3. The reflective film 2 is fully affixed to the remaining area of ​​the inner wall of the housing 1 to achieve efficient reflection of light. The light source module 3 can be electrically connected to an external power source.

[0027] In one embodiment, the light source module 3 includes light-emitting units (such as LED beads), which are arranged in a 60° ring on the front surface of the light source module 3 (Note: the surface of the light source module 3 facing the through hole 111 is the front surface). Preferably, the light emitted by the light source module 3 has an illuminance of 2000 lux to 3000 lux; where lux is the unit of illuminance. Preferably, the light source module 3 faces the through hole 111 and is disposed inside the housing 1. The light source module 3 of this invention, combined with the diffuse reflection effect of the reflective film 2, forms superimposed illumination, which can effectively eliminate the blind spots of illumination on the tank body 41 and the tank bottom 42, and can significantly improve the light transmission effect of the irradiated light through the tiny pinholes.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the housing 1 is a square housing; the housing 1 has a first side plate 11 and a second side plate 12; the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 12 are opposite side plates; the first side plate 11 is provided with the through hole 111; inside the housing 1, the light source module 3 is provided on the second side plate 12, and the light source module 3 faces the through hole 111.

[0029] In one embodiment, the housing 1 is a cubic housing, and at least one panel of the housing is detachable.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the housing 1 is provided with a fixing part 15 (such as a fixing plate); the fixing part 15 is provided with mounting holes 151 for fixing the position.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, this utility model discloses a pinhole detection device for cans, which is applied to the detection of pinhole defects in aluminum two-piece cans. During detection, the operator places the aluminum two-piece can into the through hole 111, so that the bottom 42 and part of the can body 41 of the aluminum two-piece can are in the light illumination area inside the housing 1. The light source module 3 is activated, and the light source module 3 emits uniform and high-intensity light, forming an all-round illumination environment with the cooperation of the reflective film 2. When there is a pinhole defect in the can body 4, the light can accurately penetrate the pinhole and form a light spot inside the can body 4. By observing the light spot inside the can body 4 at the through hole 111, the operator can intuitively check the pinhole defects in the bottom 42 and the can body 41, realizing rapid detection of pinhole defects.
