Based on the above-described hardware structure of the nozzle detection apparatus, but not limited to the above-described hardware structure, the present application provides a first embodiment of a nozzle detection method. Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 shows a schematic flow chart of a first embodiment of the nozzle detection method of the present application.
It should be noted that although a logical order is depicted in the flowchart, in some cases the steps depicted or described may be performed in a different order than presented herein.
In this embodiment, the method for detecting a nozzle includes:
And S10, controlling the row nozzle groups to print preset printing times at intervals along the column direction of the nozzle array in the corresponding printing area of the substrate, and obtaining an actual printing ink drop dot matrix chart.
The row nozzle group comprises a plurality of nozzles to be printed which are sequentially arranged at intervals along the row direction of the nozzle array, a preset number of nozzles are arranged between two adjacent nozzles to be printed at intervals in the nozzle array, and the substrate is provided with strip-shaped positioning marks extending along the transverse axis direction of the substrate coordinate system of the substrate.
The main body of the nozzle detection method is a nozzle detection device, a nozzle detection program is stored in the nozzle detection device, and when the nozzle detection device executes the nozzle detection program, the nozzle detection method is executed.
In this embodiment, the preset number of printing may be the number of printing lines set by the user according to the actual demand.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a structure diagram of a nozzle detection system, which is divided into four parts including a print head 201, a substrate 202, an air-floating plate micro-platform 203, and a CCD (Charge-coupled Device) camera module 204. The CCD camera module 204 is connected to the micro-platform 203 of the air-floating plate, and after the printing nozzle 201 is controlled to print ink drops on the substrate 202, the CCD camera module 204 and the micro-platform 203 of the air-floating plate can be moved to shoot the dot matrix of the ink drops actually printed, so as to obtain the dot matrix map of the ink drops actually printed. As shown in fig. 4, a metal bar, that is, a bar-shaped positioning mark 2021, for determining a printing start position of the line nozzle group is provided at one end portion of the substrate 202, and the bar-shaped positioning mark extends in a horizontal axis direction of the substrate coordinate system, that is, in an x axis.
Specifically, the nozzle array is now divided into a plurality of nozzle sub-arrays prior to controlling the nozzles for printing. Specifically, in the first nozzle subarray, in the row direction of the nozzle array, with the first row of nozzles as a starting point, in order to prevent ink drops from adhering when adjacent rows of nozzles are printed, a row of nozzles are selected and executed multiple times by a certain number of nozzle rows in sequence, and the obtained multiple rows of nozzles are selected into the nozzle subarray. Then, the second nozzle sub-array, also in the row direction of the nozzle array, uses the second row of nozzles as a starting point, and in order to prevent the ink drops from adhering when the adjacent rows of nozzles print, selects one row of nozzles from a certain number of nozzle rows in turn and executes the same a plurality of times, and selects the obtained multiple rows of nozzles into the second nozzle sub-array. Thus, the number of nozzle sub-arrays obtained depends on the number of intervals described above.
For example, the nozzles may be grouped according to a preset number of intervals in order to avoid adhesion of ink droplets during printing of adjacent rows of nozzles, for example, the first group of nozzle sub-arrays includes the 1 st row of nozzles, the 11 th row of nozzles, the 21 st row of nozzles, … …, the 91 st row of nozzles, and the second group of nozzle sub-arrays includes the 2 nd row of nozzles, the 12 th row of nozzles, the 22 nd row of nozzles, … …, and the 92 th row of nozzles. The number of nozzle rows spaced apart by a certain number in this example is 10, and of course, the preset number of intervals may be set according to actual needs, which is not limited in this embodiment.
It will be appreciated that if the nozzle sub-arrays are controlled to print a preset number of prints at intervals along the column direction of the nozzle arrays, ink droplets printed by adjacent rows of nozzles in the same column may stick or overlap. Therefore, to avoid the above situation, further, after the nozzle sub-arrays are obtained, the nozzle sub-arrays are grouped in the column direction to obtain a plurality of row nozzle groups. For example, the nozzle array is a 4×100 nozzle array, where 4 is the number of rows of the nozzle array, 100 is the number of columns of the nozzle array, and after the nozzles are divided into ten groups of nozzle sub-arrays according to the above manner, the nozzle sub-arrays are further grouped according to the number of rows of the nozzle array. For example, the first row of all nozzles in the first nozzle sub-array is taken as a row of nozzle groups, the second row of all nozzles is taken as a row of nozzle groups, the third row of all nozzles is taken as a row of nozzle groups, and so on.
Further, as shown in fig. 5, after grouping the nozzles to obtain the row nozzle groups, the print area of each group of row nozzle groups is determined on the substrate, that is, the surface of the substrate is uniformly divided into a plurality of first-stage print areas along the extending direction of the strip-shaped positioning marks according to the number of nozzle sub-arrays, and the extending direction of each first-stage print area is perpendicular to the strip-shaped positioning marks. Then, after the first-stage printing area corresponding to each nozzle subarray is obtained, the first-stage printing area is uniformly divided along the extending direction of the first-stage printing area according to the number of the row nozzle groups in each nozzle subarray, so as to obtain the printing area corresponding to each row nozzle group, as shown in fig. 6.
Specifically, after determining the print area of each group of row nozzle groups, in order to effectively detect the quality, uniformity and stability of ink drop printing in the visual field, the number of print rows of the row nozzle groups, that is, the number of print rows of the row nozzle groups, i.e., the number of print rows of the row nozzle groups, is determined, for example, the number of print rows of each group of row nozzle groups is controlled to print 20, that is, the preset number of print rows r=20. After printing, controlling the camera to shoot each printing area to obtain an actual printing ink drop dot matrix diagram of each printing area with the ink drop dot matrix of R multiplied by C, wherein C represents the number of columns of the ink drop dot matrix in the actual printing ink drop dot matrix diagram, namely, the number of nozzles in the row nozzle group. In addition, the serial numbers of the nozzles for printing the ink drops in the first column and the ink drops in the last column are recorded in the name of each dot matrix picture of the ink drops actually printed, so that the nozzles with poor blocking and flash effect can be quickly determined in the follow-up process.
And step S20, determining the actual pixel coordinates of each ink drop relative to the strip-shaped positioning mark based on the actual printing ink drop dot matrix diagram.
In this embodiment, in determining the actual pixel coordinates of each ink droplet with respect to the bar-shaped positioning mark based on the actually printed ink droplet dot pattern, further, as an optional implementation, step S20 specifically includes:
Step S201, determining the central pixel coordinates of each ink droplet in the actual print ink droplet dot matrix chart.
Step S202, determining the actual pixel coordinates of each ink droplet based on the center pixel coordinates of each ink droplet.
It should be noted that, in order to reduce the printing error during the printing process, the printing area has a theoretical printing start point, so that the row nozzle group may perform the alignment operation according to the theoretical printing start point before the corresponding printing area of the substrate starts printing. Correspondingly, after each printing area is printed, each printing area is photographed to obtain an actual printing ink drop dot matrix diagram, and the actual printing ink drop dot matrix diagram can contain a theoretical printing starting point.
Specifically, after the actual print ink drop dot matrix image is obtained, preprocessing is performed on each actual print ink drop dot matrix image, namely, graying processing, brightness adjustment processing and contrast adjustment processing are performed to highlight the characteristics of ink drops, and further, gaussian filtering is performed on the preprocessed actual print ink drop dot matrix image to remove noise points.
Further, after the operation, the ink drop characteristics in the ink drop dot matrix image which is actually printed are extracted by utilizing a SimpleBlobdetector spot detection algorithm, and the ink drops in the ink drop dot matrix image which is actually printed are detected and screened by setting parameters such as the pixel area size, the inertia ratio, the roundness and the like of the spots.
After the ink drops in the actually printed ink drop dot matrix diagram are screened, the actually printed ink drop dot matrix diagram is subjected to strip-shaped positioning mark detection so as to identify a strip-shaped positioning mark region 5, and fitting processing is performed on the strip-shaped positioning mark region 5 to obtain a fitting straight line. After the fitting straight line is obtained, a theoretical printing starting point P (x) is determined from the practical printing ink drop dot matrix diagram 0 ,y 0 ) In theory, print the starting point P (x 0 ,y 0 ) And taking the fitting straight line as an origin, and constructing a picture plane coordinate system by taking the fitting straight line as an X axis. In the picture plane coordinate system, the positive X-axis direction is from left to right, and the positive Y-axis direction is from bottom to top. After the picture plane coordinate system is constructed, the center pixel coordinate of each ink droplet in the picture plane coordinate system can be obtained. After obtaining the central pixel coordinates of each ink drop, reconstructing a KeyPoint type container Points to store the central pixel coordinates of each ink drop。
Further, after the central pixel coordinates of each ink drop are obtained, from the 4 edge lines of the actually printed ink drop dot matrix graph, the edge line of the side edge where the strip-shaped positioning mark area 5 is located is taken as the line of the adjacent edge, and the linear deflection angle between the fitting straight line and the line of the adjacent edge is determined. After determining the linear deflection angle, determining a conversion relation between a picture plane coordinate system and a substrate plane coordinate system according to the linear deflection angle and a preset coordinate of a theoretical printing starting point in the substrate plane coordinate system of the substrate, determining a coordinate conversion formula, and finally converting the picture coordinate system of each ink drop into an actual pixel coordinate of each ink drop in the substrate plane coordinate system by using the coordinate conversion formula so as to obtain the actual pixel coordinate of each ink drop.
It should be noted that, the ink droplets obtained based on the above detection method are arranged randomly, and therefore, the ink droplets are also ordered.
Specifically, based on the actually printed dot pattern, the position P (x 0 ,y 0 ). It can be appreciated that since different printing areas are printed by different row nozzle groups, and after printing is completed, the camera and the substrate micro-stage need to be continuously moved so as to shoot the printing ink drop dot array of each row nozzle group, so as to obtain an actual printing ink drop dot array map corresponding to each row nozzle group. However, in the actual shooting process, since the camera and the substrate micro-stage need to be continuously moved, a large mechanical error is accumulated due to excessive movement times, and further ink drops printed by a normal nozzle at the back have large deviation, so that a false screen occurs. Therefore, in order to reduce the influence of the accumulated errors of the movements of the camera and the substrate moving stage on the drop point, it is necessary to determine a theoretical printing start point for each printing area before controlling the row nozzle groups for printing, so that alignment is performed by the theoretical printing start point before starting printing for each row nozzle group. After determining the theoretical printing start point P (x 0 ,y 0 ) Then, according to the first preset deviation range, determining the position P of the actual printing start point of the actual printing ink drop dot matrix diagram (0,0) (x, y). If the actual deviation is not screened in the preset deviation rangeAnd marking the actual printing starting point as a missing printing point, and determining a printing nozzle corresponding to the missing printing point. If the actual printing start point P is screened within the preset deviation range (0,0) After (x, y), placing the actual printing ink drop dot matrix graph on the substrate, wherein the direction of the actual printing ink drop dot matrix graph from left to right is parallel to the strip-shaped positioning marks on the substrate, the direction of the actual printing ink drop dot matrix graph from top to bottom is perpendicular to the strip-shaped positioning marks on the substrate, and according to the actual printing starting point P (0,0) (x, y) sequentially screening the first row of ink drops at the bottom of the ink drop dot matrix from left to right. After all the ink drops in the first row are determined, each ink drop in the first row is taken as a starting Point, ink drops in the j-th row are screened upwards according to a second preset deviation range, so that an actual printing ink drop dot array is obtained, and the ink drops in the actual printing ink drop dot array are sequentially stored in a two-dimensional container set of a Point type.
It will be appreciated that during actual printing, when the nozzles are blocked, the nozzles cannot eject ink droplets, so further, in order to quickly determine the nozzles incapable of ejecting ink, as an alternative embodiment, after step S20, the method further includes:
And S21, judging whether printing ink drops are missed or not based on the actual printing ink drop dot matrix diagram.
And S22, if the printing-missing ink drop exists, determining a printing-missing nozzle based on the printing-missing ink drop.
Specifically, based on the above steps, after all the ink droplets in the first row are determined, the ink droplets in the first row may be identified, and whether there is a blocked nozzle is determined according to the actual separation distance between two adjacent ink droplets.
For example, after determining all the ink droplets in the first row, calculating the actual distance between two adjacent ink droplets according to the actual pixel coordinates of each ink droplet in the first row, as shown in fig. 7, the solid line circle represents the printing ink droplet dot, the dotted line circle represents the missing printing ink droplet dot a, when missing printing ink droplets, two ink droplets on both sides of the missing printing ink droplet are adjacent ink droplets at this time, and it is understood that in the actual printing process, on the premise that the nozzle accuracy meets the requirement, the actual distance between two ink droplets printed by two adjacent nozzles is within the distance range, and when the nozzles are blocked, the actual distance between two adjacent nozzles is larger than the actual distance between two ink droplets which are normally adjacent. Therefore, when the actual separation distance between the adjacent two nozzles is larger than the actual separation distance between the normal adjacent two ink droplets, it is determined that there is a missing print ink droplet at this time, and the missing print nozzle is determined based on the missing print ink droplet.
Or, as another alternative embodiment, after determining all the ink droplets of the first row, further determining the number of ink droplets of the first row, determining whether the number of ink droplets of the first row is equal to the number of nozzles in the row nozzle group, and when the number of ink droplets is not equal to the number of nozzles, missing printing ink droplets exists. After determining that there is a missing print ink drop, a missing print nozzle is determined from the missing print ink drop.
And step S30, determining theoretical pixel coordinates of each ink drop in the actual printing ink drop dot matrix graph relative to the strip-shaped positioning marks based on the azimuth relation between the printing area and the strip-shaped positioning marks.
It will be appreciated that, after determining the actual pixel coordinates of the ink drops, to reduce the amount of computation, it is necessary to determine the theoretical pixel coordinates of each ink drop in the actual printed ink drop dot matrix map relative to the bar positioning marks. Thus, further, as an alternative embodiment, step S30 specifically includes:

Step S306, converting the picture coordinates of each ink droplet into the theoretical pixel coordinates of each ink droplet in the substrate plane coordinate system based on the conversion relation.
Specifically, the actual printing ink drop dot pattern corresponding to the first printing area may be determined from a plurality of actual printing ink drop dot patterns, and after preprocessing the actual printing ink drop dot pattern, a canny edge detection is performed on the actual printing ink drop dot pattern to identify the strip-shaped positioning mark area 5 corresponding to the strip-shaped positioning mark. And fitting the strip-shaped positioning mark region 5, for example, fitting a straight line by using a least square method, so as to obtain a fitted straight line. After the fitted straight line is obtained, from the 4 edge lines of the actual printing ink drop dot matrix diagram, the edge line of the side where the strip-shaped positioning mark area 5 is located is taken as the line of the adjacent edge, the straight line deflection Angle is determined based on the line of the fitted straight line relative to the line of the adjacent edge in the actual printing ink drop dot matrix diagram, and the straight line deflection Angle is marked as angle=
For example, referring to fig. 8, fig. 8 is a schematic diagram of the adjacent edge line in the actual printing ink drop dot matrix diagram, in which a strip-shaped positioning mark area 5 and actual printing ink drops are displayed, and 4 edge lines of the actual printing ink drop dot matrix diagram are respectively edge line 1, edge line 2, edge line 3 and edge line 4, wherein the edge line 4 is the edge line of the side of the strip-shaped positioning mark area 5, and at this time, the edge line 4 is taken as the adjacent edge line, and the straight line deflection angle of the fitting straight line relative to the adjacent edge line is determined.

Wherein, the conversion formula is: />. After calculating the theoretical pixel coordinates of each ink droplet, the theoretical pixel coordinates of each ink droplet may be stored in a Point-type two-dimensional container P_Pideal (i,j) (x, y).

After determining the actual pixel coordinates and the theoretical pixel coordinates of each ink droplet, the landing pixel deviation values of each actual ink droplet in the row direction and in the column direction may be determined. Since the row direction of the nozzle array is parallel to the bar-shaped positioning marks on the substrate, i.e. the drop pixel deviation values of each actual ink drop in the x and y directions of the substrate coordinate system are determined, i.e Wherein x is error Is the drop pixel deviation value, y, in the row direction of the ink drop error For drop pixel deviation value of ink drop in column direction, preal (i,j) P_Pideal is the actual pixel coordinates of the ith row and jth column ink drops (i,j) The theoretical pixel coordinates for the ith row and jth column ink drops. Since the current deviation is the drop pixel deviation value, it is also necessary to convert the drop pixel deviation into the drop deviation value. Thus, further, as an alternative embodiment, step S40 specifically includes:
step S401, determining a landing pixel deviation value of each ink droplet based on the actual pixel coordinates and the theoretical pixel coordinates of each ink droplet.
Step S402, determining the picture pixel size of the actual printing ink drop dot matrix chart.
Step S403, obtaining the landing deviation value based on the picture pixel size and the landing pixel deviation value.
In this embodiment, after the drop pixel deviation value of each ink droplet is determined based on the above operation, the drop pixel deviation of each ink droplet may be converted into the drop deviation value according to the pixel size of the dot matrix image of the ink droplet that is actually printed, and the pixel size of the dot matrix image of the ink droplet that is actually printed may be 2.5 micrometers×2.5 micrometers. After the landing deviation value of each ink droplet is obtained, the landing deviation value may be stored in a two-dimensional container Perror (i, j) of the Point type, and a landing deviation. Txt text is output.
And step S50, detecting the nozzle based on the drop point deviation value.
In this embodiment, based on the above, the drop Point deviation value is stored in the Point type two-dimensional container Perror (i, j), and after the drop Point deviation value txt text is output, the nozzle may be detected based on the drop Point deviation value txt text, so as to screen out the unqualified nozzle.

It should be noted that, detecting the nozzle based on the landing deviation value, although the nozzle with insufficient printing precision can be screened out, when the printing precision of the nozzle meets the standard, the nozzle has poor flash effect in the printing process, and is easy to generate the situations of less printing or more printing. The nozzle is detected by using the drop point deviation value, and only the nozzle with insufficient precision can be screened out, but the nozzle with poor flash effect cannot be screened out, so that in order to screen out the nozzle with poor flash effect, further, as an optional implementation manner, after step S50, the method further includes:

Meanwhile, when a single nozzle is detected by using the ink drop observer, after the flash spraying starts, the ink drops need to be stabilized, the flash spraying needs to be performed for a long time, so that the ink consumption is high, but the embodiment only needs to control the row nozzle groups to print at intervals along the column direction of the nozzle array in the corresponding printing area of the substrate for a preset printing times, and does not need to perform the flash spraying for multiple times until the ink drops are stabilized, so that the consumption of the ink drops is reduced.
