Component attachment devices and related systems and methods for machine vision systems

摘要

In some aspects, camera systems can include a camera enclosure, a lens disposed in or along the camera enclosure along an optical axis of the camera system, and an optical accessory attached to camera enclosure, where the optical accessory is attached using a magnetic retention force that is provided by at least one magnetic element.

主权项

1. A camera illumination module that positions at least one illumination element relative to a lens of a separate machine vision device, the illumination module comprising:
an illumination board defining a first surface and a central viewing area through which the machine vision device can inspect a field of view and comprising at least one illumination element disposed along the first surface; at least one mounting element extending from a second surface of the illumination board to engage a surface of the separate machine vision device; and a magnetic element arranged at a distal end of one of the at least one mounting elements, the magnetic element
generating a magnetic retention force that removably secures the illumination module to the surface of the separate machine vision device.
