By detecting the detection and by inputting only the parts of the good quality toward the assembly conveyer 30 for assembly according to whether or not to significantly reduce the failure rate of the final assembled recliner assembly. Therefore, in the overall recliner assembly apparatus and method, a detailed description of the same configuration or method as applied or known in the present invention will be omitted.

As described above, the present invention including a total inspection apparatus for pre-assembly components in the assembly apparatus of the recliner includes the inspection table 40, the hardness inspection unit 50, and the shape inspection unit 60. .

The inspection table 40 is an area where a series of measurement inspection processes are performed on the parts 1 immediately before being assembled and transported to the assembling transport conveyor 30. The parts supply unit is provided within the driving area of the transport robot 20. It is arrange | positioned in the appropriate space between 10 and the conveyance conveyor 30 for assembly.

The component 1 supplied from the component supply unit 10 may be loaded at a predetermined position on the upper surface of the inspection table 40 by a separate transfer robot, and on the other hand, the component supply unit 10 may be sequentially arranged in a single unit. A recessed loading space corresponding to the lower portion of the component 1 is formed on the upper surface of the inspection table 40 so that the supplied component 1 reaches the upper surface of the inspection table 40 and stops at a predetermined position. Can be.

In the illustrated embodiment, one component 1 is loaded on the inspection table 40. Alternatively, a plurality of components 1 may be loaded.

The component supply unit 10 stops the supply of the component when the inspection table 40 is full of inspection waiting parts 1, and has the seat 1 again empty in the inspection table 40. In this case, the part 1 is continuously supplied again.

In addition, the inspection table 40 detects the presence of the loaded component (1) and generates a signal to detect the component to start the subsequent operation of the hardness inspection unit 50 and the shape inspection unit 60 to be described later 45 ) Is configured.

The hardness inspection unit 50 primarily measures the hardness value of the parts seated on the inspection table 40 and determines whether the measured hardness value is met or not according to whether the measured hardness value satisfies the allowable hardness. Further inspection process by the shape inspection unit 60 to be made.

This hardness test unit 50 is configured to include a hardness measuring device 51 and a control unit 52.

The hardness measuring device 51 uses a hardness measuring device that is already widely used in various industrial environments, and does not particularly limit its configuration, and description of a known hardness measuring device is also omitted.

The control unit 52 compares and analyzes the hardness value of the component 1 obtained from the hardness measurer 51 with a predetermined hardness value to determine whether the component 1 has a sum of hardness.

When the inspection process of the hardness inspection unit 50 is completed, exactly when the hardness measuring device 51 is separated from the component 1 of the inspection table 40, then the operation of the shape inspection unit 60 is started.

The shape inspection unit 60 photographs the part 1 loaded on the inspection table 40 and determines whether the part 1 is processed or not with respect to the machining state (outer shape) of the part 1 from the photographed image information, and finally Only in the case of moving to the assembly transport conveyor 30 to perform the assembly.

The shape inspection unit 60 is configured to include a rotating unit 61, the inspection camera 62 and the control unit 63.

The rotating unit 61 is a means for rotating the component 1 placed on the inspection table 40 so that photographing of all the areas of the component 1 is possible by the inspection camera 62. In addition, the rotation unit 61 is provided to meet a specific shape of the component 1 constituting the recliner, and in the case of the gear rim in which the internal gear is processed 360 degrees on the inner circumferential surface as in the embodiment, the inspection camera 62 When shooting), the gear rim is rotated to allow shooting of all sections of the tooth. Of course, in the case of the lock gear 7 (see Fig. 1) in which the outer gear is formed only by a predetermined angle on the outer surface, such a configuration of the rotary unit 61 may be excluded.

5, the rotary unit 61 according to the embodiment is provided on the inspection table 40. That is, a seating groove 610a into which the lower end of the component 1 is inserted is formed, and a jig 610 is rotatably installed on the inspection table 40, and a jig is coupled to a lower portion of the center of the jig 610. A motor 611 for rotating the 610 and an encoder 612 connected with the motor 611 to detect the rotation speed of the motor 611 may be included.

The inspection camera 62 is disposed on the inspection table 40 to provide the control unit 63 with the captured image information taken by the component 1 loaded on the inspection table 40.

This inspection camera 62 comprises one or more first inspection cameras 620 arranged diagonally with respect to the inspection table 40 for imaging the gear teeth of the component 1. For example, as shown in FIG. 6A, when the first inspection camera 620 for photographing the gear teeth of the gear rim part is composed of one, at the same time as the photographing time point of the first inspection camera 620. Image information taken by the first inspection camera 620 by rotating the gear rim 1 revolution (360 degrees) using the rotating unit 61 is completed for the entire section of the teeth of the gear rim Alternatively, as shown in (b) of FIG. 6, two first inspection cameras 620, which are photographed in a diagonal direction and symmetric with each other, are configured. By rotating the gear rim half a turn (180 degrees) by using the rotating unit 61 at the same time as the photographing time of the), the photographing of all the sections of the internal gear of the gear rim by the sum of the image information photographed by the two cameras It is possible. Of course, although not shown, even if three or more cameras are applied, it is possible to photograph the whole section only by rotating one-third of the rotation unit.

6, the inspection camera 62 includes a second inspection camera 621 disposed on the vertical upper portion of the inspection table 40 to capture a planar image of the component 1. The second inspection camera 621 is to be taken in the stationary state of the component 1 after the end of the shooting of the first inspection camera 620, and thus the component (1) obtained from the second inspection camera 621 By analyzing the planar image information of) can be detected whether the surface damage such as cracks (crack). The planar image information obtained from the second inspection camera 621 is provided after measuring the reset position of the component 1 when the component 1 is unloaded using the transfer robot 20 after the inspection process is completed. . The reason why the position of the component 1 before the unloading of the component 1 in the inspection table 40 is measured again is that the inspection process by the hardness inspection unit 50 and the first inspection camera 620 are performed. It is to consider that the position of the gear rim (1) can be distracted during the gear tooth inspection used, and to maintain the accuracy in the assembly position preemption performed in the transfer conveyor (30) for assembly.

Looking at the position measuring process of the component (1) in more detail as follows.

As shown in FIG. 7, the gear rim protrudes a plurality of connecting blocks 13 on one side for assembly with other components. Of course, the other connection part is formed with a connection groove of a corresponding shape. In general, any one of the plurality of connecting blocks 13 is configured as a reference connecting block 13 "to have a cross-sectional shape that is distinguished from other connecting blocks to prevent reversal when assembling the gear rim and to facilitate overall. One assembly is possible. As shown, one reference connecting block 13 "is formed to have a non-circular cross section like a semi-circle rather than having a circular cross section like other connecting blocks 13. It is.

Therefore, in the planar image information of the gear rim photographed by the second inspection camera 621, the rotational position of the reference connecting block 13 "is recognized and the rotation of the reference connecting block 13" from the center of the gear rim. By measuring the angle it is possible to check the position of the gear rim. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the reference hole C and the reference hole C are connected to the center hole C from the horizontal reference line L1 passing through the center C hole of the central hinge hole to which the recliner component lever rotation shaft 3 (see FIG. 1) is coupled. By measuring the rotation angle a of the detection line L2 across the block 13 ″, the position of the gear rim can be accurately recognized.

The control unit 63 analyzes the image information photographed by the at least one inspection camera 62 to determine whether or not the sum. For example, when a defective element is determined in at least one of the gear tooth image information of the gear rim obtained from the first inspection camera 620 and the surface image information of the gear rim obtained from the second inspection camera 621, the corresponding gear is determined. For the rim, it is determined as the final defective product.

Each of the control units 52 and 63 configured in the hardness test unit 50 and the shape test unit 60 discriminates the sum of parts 1 from the hardness and shape information measured for the corresponding parts 1. One, whether or not the sum of the parts thus determined are collectively transmitted to a control unit (not shown) for the entire assembly apparatus including the transfer robot 20 and the control unit 63 of the shape inspection unit 60 performs a second inspection. Based on the image information obtained from the camera 621, the newly measured position information of the component 1 in which the inspection process is completed is provided together with the controller (not shown).

Eventually, according to whether or not the parts of the inspection table 40 are completed in the inspection table 40, the goods are unloaded from the inspection table 40 using the transfer robot 20 and transferred to the transfer conveyor 30 for assembly. The assembly is performed, and the defective article is unloaded from the inspection table 40 and discharged into the defective loading box.

8 is a flow chart showing the flow of the total inspection process for the parts (gear rim) according to the present invention.

The recliner assembling method according to the present invention is provided by the above-described recliner device, which is placed on the inspection table 40 before supplying the parts discharged from the component supply unit 10 to the assembly conveyer 30. Part loading step (S10), and hardness test step (S20) for primarily checking whether or not the summation by measuring the hardness value for the parts loaded in the inspection table 40 by comparing the allowable strength of the preset parts, Subsequently, the shape inspection step (S30) of photographing the parts loaded on the inspection table 40 and secondarily checks whether or not the parts of the outer surface shape of the parts, and the hardness inspection and shape inspection step (S20) (S30) It includes a part assembly step (S50) for moving the parts determined as good or good to the assembly transport conveyor 30 or assembled with the other components previously moved.

As described above, the gear rim, which is a key part of the recliner, will be described with reference to the present invention which performs the entire inspection process for the parts before assembling the recliner.

The hardness test step (S20) is a step of measuring the hardness value of the gear rim previously loaded in the inspection table 40 to check whether the measured hardness value satisfies the allowable hardness, which is disposed in the inspection table 40 The operation is started by detecting that the component 1 is loaded from the component detecting sensor 45 to the inspection table 40 and transmitting the monitored signal to the control unit 52.

The control unit 52 compares and analyzes the hardness value of the gear rim 1 obtained from the hardness measuring device 51 with a predetermined hardness value, that is, the allowable hardness, to determine whether or not the sum is met. If the measured hardness value does not satisfy the allowable hardness, the defective gear rim is unloaded from the inspection table 40 and then discharged into the stack without performing the shape inspection. Then, the following shape inspection step (S30) ).

The shape inspection step (S30) is a step of determining whether or not the gear rim (1) in the image taken by photographing the shape information of the gear rim (1) loaded on the inspection table 40, the shape inspection unit ( Photographing the gear 11 teeth of the gear rim 1 by using the first inspection camera 620 of 60 and inspecting whether the gear 11 teeth are lumped from the photographed gear 11 teeth image ( S31 and using the second inspection camera 621 of the shape inspection unit 60 to photograph the planar shape of the gear rim 1 and to check whether or not the rim of the gear rim 1 from the photographed plane image Step S32 is made.

The control unit 63 first starts photographing by operating the first inspection camera 620 and at the same time rotates the gear rim 1 by operating the rotating unit 61. As shown in (a) and (b) of FIG. 6, one or more first inspection cameras 620 are applied to the gear rim 1 in a diagonal direction. At the same time as the photographing time, the gear rim 1 is rotated by a predetermined angle unit by using the encoder 612 which detects the rotational speed of the motor 611 of the rotating unit 61, Shooting is complete.

When the photographing of the gear 11 teeth of the gear rim 1 using the first inspection camera 320 is completed, a planar image of the gear rim 1 is then taken using the second inspection camera 621. I will shoot.

The control unit 63 detects whether or not the gear teeth and the surface of the gear teeth from the images obtained from the first inspection camera 620 and the second inspection camera 621, if any defects are detected, the inspection The gear rim 1 is unloaded from the table 40 and discharged into a loading box.

On the other hand, after the hardness test step (S20) and the shape test step (S30), before unloading the gear rim (1) determined as good quality from the inspection table 40, the final position for the gear rim (1) It includes the step of measuring (S40).

This position measuring step (S40) is to take a plane image of the gear rim (1) by using a position recognition camera disposed in the vertical upper portion of the gear rim (1) and to measure the position of the gear rim from the plane image taken .

A separate position recognition camera may be disposed to perform the position measuring step S40, but preferably, the gear rim is formed from a planar image of the gear rim 1 obtained through the second inspection camera 621. The position of 1) can be measured. As described above, the first inspection camera 621 and the rotating unit 61 is used to image the gear teeth in advance, and then the second inspection camera 621 stops the gear rim 1. This is why the planar image of is performed at the end of the inspection.

7 illustrates an image photographed by the second inspection camera 621. Referring to FIG. 7, a gear rim (from a planar image of the gear rim 1 photographed through the second inspection camera 621) is illustrated. Among the plurality of connecting blocks 13 arranged in a substantially circular shape around the center point C of 1), the gear angle (a) is measured by measuring the rotation angle a of the reference connecting block 13 "having a different cross-sectional shape. The position of 1) is recognized.

When the position of the gear rim 1 is measured in this way, the position information of the gear rim 1 is transmitted to the assembly device control unit including the transfer robot 20, and based on this, the transfer robot 20 is moved from the inspection table 40. Unloading the gear rim (1), and performs the correct loading and assembly work toward the assembly transport conveyor (30).

On the other hand, as a method of discriminating whether the image is taken from the image photographed by the inspection camera 62, the control unit 63 of the shape inspection unit 60 is set in advance the photographed image of the part corresponding to the good product, Overlapping the good image and the image taken during the inspection process can determine whether the payment is due to the degree of contrast.

On the other hand, another method of determining whether parts are missing from the image taken by the inspection camera 62 may be performed in the following embodiments.

9 (a) conceptually illustrates an image photographed by the first inspection camera, and FIG. 9 (b) conceptually illustrates a processed image that has undergone a predetermined filtering operation.

The image captured by the first inspection camera 621 may have a difference in brightness due to the shape of the peak portion 11a and the valley portion 11b of the gear 11 teeth as shown in FIG. 9 (a). This difference in brightness becomes more apparent when a black and white image is taken, such as an infrared camera. However, it is still difficult to obtain accurate shape information of the teeth of the gear 11 from the first photographed image as shown in FIG. 9 (a).

Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 9B, the brightness of the ridge 11a and the valley 11b of the gear 11 teeth may be more clearly implemented in black and white by performing a separate filtering operation on the captured image. . Through a predetermined filtering process, a more accurate image of the gear tooth can be obtained from the difference in brightness apparently seen in the white ridge 11a and the black valley 11b. As such, the image processing technology for filtering the brightness degree only in black and white is well known, and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

As a result, the number information of the gear 11, the thickness (d1, d2) information of the peaks 11a and the valleys 11b, the peaks 11a and the valleys (shown in FIG. 9 (b)) are filtered. 11b) can be detected.

In describing the recliner assembly method according to the present invention, a series of embodiments of the gear rim 1 are shown as described above, but the gear teeth are processed as well as the lock gears 7 (see FIG. 1). Of course, the same assembly method can be applied to the other unprocessed parts.
