Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a technique of inspecting a surface of an inspection target subjected to surface treatment with a shot material, and a technique of determining the necessity to replace the shot material in an ejector.
  • Patent Literature 1 Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2015-068668
  • the present invention has been made in view of the above-described problem.
  • the present invention is intended to reduce overdetection in an appearance inspection apparatus and to conduct an inspection with a high degree of accuracy.
  • One aspect of the present invention is an appearance inspection apparatus that inspects a surface of an inspection target subjected to surface treatment with a shot material.
  • the apparatus includes: an imaging part that captures an image of the surface of the inspection target to acquire a captured image; a storage that contains a reference image corresponding to the captured image; a defect candidate detector that detects a defect candidate region in the captured image based on the captured image and the reference image; and a replacement determination part that determines the necessity to replace the shot material based on the brightness level of an inspection target region in the captured image and the brightness level of a reference region in the reference image corresponding to the inspection target region.
  • the imaging controller 401 controls the imaging part 31 and the light emitters 32 , 33 to acquire an image of the inspection target Wk (in an exact sense, data indicating the image).
  • the image data is stored into the storage 402 .
  • the imaging part 31 acquires image data.
  • an image acquired through imaging by the imaging part 31 will be called a “captured image,” and data about the captured image is called “captured image data 911 .”
  • the captured image data 911 is stored into the storage 402 .
  • the storage 402 contains data about “reference images” stored as reference image data 912 .
  • Each of the reference images is an ideal image of the inspection target Wk under each illuminated state. Specifically, data about an ideal image corresponding to each illuminated state of the imaging part 31 is prepared in the storage 402 as the reference image data 912 .
  • the reference image data 912 is data about a reference image acquired through imaging of the inspection target Wk determined to be a conforming item by the imaging part 31 , for example.
  • the defect candidate detection step S 12 is preformed in which the defect candidate detector 403 detects a defect candidate region in the captured image.
  • processing on image data will be described simply as processing on an image, where appropriate.
  • FIG. 7 is an example of a reference image 820 showing the surface of the inspection target Wk as a conforming item acquired by the imaging part 31 in the multiplied illuminated state.
  • a region appearing in the reference image 820 and corresponding to the defect inspection target region 811 in the captured image 810 is illustrated as a “defect reference region 821 .”
  • a region appearing in the reference image 820 and corresponding to the replacement inspection target region 812 in the captured image 810 is illustrated as a “replacement reference region 822 .”
  • the defect candidate detector 403 calculates an average of pixels in the replacement inspection target region 812 in the captured image 810 (specifically, an average of luminance values corresponding to the brightness level of the replacement inspection target region 812 ), and stores the calculated average in association with the extracted defect candidate region 813 into the storage 402 as the result data 914 .
  • the brightness level of the replacement inspection target region 812 and the brightness level of the replacement reference region 822 in the reference image 820 are compared by calculating the absolute of a difference between these brightness levels, and determining whether the absolute is a predetermined threshold or more.
  • the threshold is acquired through referring to the threshold data 913 in the storage 402 by the replacement determination part 404 . If the absolute is the threshold or more, the replacement determination part 404 determines that the shot material 211 needs replacement in the ejector 2 , and outputs the shot material replacement signal Sig 1 .
  • the supply controller 25 of the ejector 2 issues an operation command for the on-off valve 26 to open the on-off valve 26 .
  • a new shot material 211 is supplied from the shot material storage 24 to the shot material supplier 22 through the pipe 27 . In this way, the shot material 211 is replaced in the ejector 2 .
  • the operator inputs an indication through the input part 42 that the designated inspection target Wk “has no defect (is a conforming item)” by checking the display part 41 .
  • This makes it possible to acquire information indicating that the extracted defect candidate region 813 has no defect, specifically, that a result of the defect inspection indicating the presence of a defect at this inspection target Wk is overdetection.
  • the present invention may be configured as a program for causing a computer to inspect a surface of an inspection target subjected to surface treatment with a shot material.
  • Execution of the program by the computer causes the program to perform: a preparation step of preparing a captured image by capturing an image of the surface of the inspection target and a reference image corresponding to the captured image; a defect candidate detection step of detecting a defect candidate region in the captured image based on the captured image and the reference image; and a replacement determination step of determining the necessity to replace the shot material based on the brightness level of an inspection target region in the captured image and the brightness level of a reference region in the reference image corresponding to the inspection target region.
  • Ath threshold (for the overdetection ratio)
