Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of manipulators, and in particular relates to a manipulator execution end and a method capable of automatically straightening an FPC. Background Art

[0002] Touch button automation test involves the process of picking up and placing materials, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 When unloading, the robot needs to place the touch button on the Holder module (also known as the support module) for sealing and other tests. When taking the material, the robot needs to take away the touch button that has been tested on the Holder module. More specifically, during the touch button automation test, there is a section of FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) on the touch button that serves as a connection. The upper end of the FPC (equivalent to the root of the FPC) is connected to the touch button, and the lower end (equivalent to the head of the FPC) is suspended, similar to a hanging streamer. When unloading, it is necessary to first align the lower end of the FPC on the touch button with a very small through hole on the Holder module (the diameter of the through hole is generally only 1~3mm larger than the width of the FPC), and then the robot execution end controls the FPC to slowly descend and penetrate the through hole. After the FPC penetrates the through hole, the touch button is just accommodated in the groove of the Holder module. At this time, the unloading is completed and the touch button can be tested for sealing and other tests.

[0003] Currently, the industry uses a robot with a nozzle module mechanism to automatically pick up and place touch buttons. However, the current nozzle module mechanism cannot control the shape of the FPC when picking up and placing the touch buttons. This makes the FPC shape unstable when picking up and placing the touch buttons, and there will be bending and deformation. As a result, when automatically picking up and placing the touch buttons, it is easy to cause the FPC to bend and damage, and the FPC perforation fails, which in turn leads to material picking and placing failure. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] Embodiment 1: In this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 The support module 1 in FIG. 1 shows two through holes 102 , which is determined by the raised structure of the touch button itself. There is only one FPC on the touch button, and the FPC only needs to pass through the left through hole 102 on the support module 1 .

[0023] Reference Figure 1 to Figure 21A manipulator actuator capable of automatically straightening an FPC comprises a power module and a nozzle module 3 arranged on a manipulator end base 5, and also comprises a clamping claw module 2 arranged on the base 5, wherein: The power output end 222 of the power module is connected to the nozzle module 3 and the clamping jaw module 2, and is used to drive the nozzle module 3 to move up and down and drive the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 217 in the clamping jaw module 2 to open and close; When the left clamp 216 and the right clamp 217 are close to each other and in a holding state, the FPC is limited to the gap between the left clamp 216 and the right clamp 217 in the holding state, so that the FPC is straightened by the left clamp 216 and the right clamp 217 when the suction nozzle module 3 descends during material discharge and when the suction nozzle module 3 rises during material collection.

[0024] In this way, the robot execution end that can automatically straighten the FPC is provided with a clamping claw module 2 compared to the traditional robot with a suction nozzle module 3 mechanism. The clamping claw module 2 can straighten the FPC when placing and picking up materials, so that the FPC will not sway during the process of touching the button to pick up and place the materials, ensuring that the FPC can be smoothly inserted into the through hole without damaging the FPC.

[0025] It can be understood that the nozzle module 3 is used to absorb the touch button to lift and lower the touch button, which is very easy to achieve for those skilled in the art and is widely used in the prior art. Moreover, the clamping jaw module 2 needs to realize that the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 217 are close to form a protective state to straighten the FPC. This is also very easy to achieve for those skilled in the art and is widely used in the prior art. Taking the clamping jaw module 2 as an example, for example, the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 217 can be controlled by a motor to open and approach at a set time, and maintain the open state and the protective state for a set time period, so as to cooperate with the nozzle module 3 to complete the automatic straightening of the FPC in the touch button discharge and material collection process.

[0026] The power module needs to output linear motion, so the power module can be a combination of a motor and a screw, the screw is connected to the motor output shaft, and the power output end 222 can be a screw nut that cooperates with the screw, so that the rotational motion of the motor output shaft can be converted into the linear motion of the screw nut, thereby driving the nozzle module 3 and the clamping jaw module 2 to move. It is understandable that the power module can also be an electric push rod, a hydraulic cylinder, a linear motor, a cylinder 4, a pneumatic slide, etc.

[0027] The nozzle module 3 and the jaw module 2 can use a power module respectively, so that the nozzle module 3 and the jaw module 2 can be controlled individually, so that the nozzle module 3 and the jaw module 2 can perform corresponding actions at the set time. At this time, the structural correlation between the nozzle module 3 and the jaw module 2 is relatively small, and there is no need to consider too much mutual coordination structure between the two, and the structural design will be simpler.

[0028] The nozzle module 3 and the clamping jaw module 2 may also share a power module. In this case, the number of power modules is small, the overall structure is more compact, and the mechanism action can be completed in a limited space. The following example takes the nozzle module 3 and the clamping jaw module 2 sharing a power module, and the cylinder 4 as the power module, and the piston rod of the cylinder 4 as the power output end 222 as an example, and gives an example of a structure of the clamping jaw module 2 and the nozzle module 3, and at this time, the clamping jaw module 2 and the nozzle module 3 are stacked on the base 5 (when the nozzle module 3 and the clamping jaw module 2 each use a power module, this stacking arrangement can also be used), refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 The clamping claw module 2 is the inner layer close to the base 5, and the nozzle module 3 is the outer layer, which together complete the material discharge and material collection of a touch button.

The second limiting rod group 312 can collide with the pull block 311 to limit the downward movement of the pull block 311. The nozzle spring assembly 319 is compressed and pre-tightened and clamped between the first limiting rod assembly 307 and the pull block 311; after the nozzle push rod lug 309 releases the pull block upper lug 308, the nozzle spring assembly 319 can push the pull block 311 downward by elastic force until the pull block 311 collides with the second limiting rod assembly 312; The nozzle push rod lug 309 can pull the pull block upper lug 308, so that the pull block upper lug 308 fits with the first limit rod set 307; The limit screw 313 is fixedly mounted on the nozzle mounting block 314 through the protrusion 320, and the nozzle 316 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the nozzle mounting block 314; The positioning rod 315 is fixedly mounted on the base 5.

The nozzle push rod 306 can push the nozzle mounting block 314 to slide downward by contacting the protrusion 320 until the limit screw 313 collides with the positioning rod 315; when the nozzle push rod 306 pushes the nozzle mounting block 314 to slide downward, the tension spring 310 is stretched; Reference Fig.15 In the initial state, the nozzle push rod lug 309 pulls the pull block upper lug 308, so that the pull block upper lug 308 fits with the first limit rod group 307; When the suction nozzle push rod 306 moves downward by L1 through the connecting plate 6, the suction nozzle push rod lug 309 separates from the lug 308 on the pull block, and the pull block 311 moves downward by L1 together with the suction nozzle mounting block 314 and the tension spring 310 under the elastic force of the suction nozzle spring group 319, and at this time, the pull block 311 collides with the second limit rod group 312; when the suction nozzle push rod 306 continues to move downward by L2, the bottom end of the suction nozzle push rod 306 moves to contact the protrusion 320 on the suction nozzle mounting block 314; when the suction nozzle push rod 306 continues to move downward by L3, the suction nozzle push rod 306 pushes the protrusion 320 on the suction nozzle mounting block 314 downward to push the suction nozzle mounting block 314 to move downward by L3, and the tension spring 310 is stretched, and the bottom end of the limit screw 313 collides with the positioning rod 315.

[0030] Moreover, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 The base 5 has a symmetrically arranged laminated structure of a clamping claw module 2 and a suction nozzle module 3 on both sides, so that the manipulator execution end can simultaneously complete the discharge and collection of materials by two touch buttons, thereby improving the efficiency of material collection and discharge.

[0031] Embodiment 2: Based on the first embodiment, a method for automatically straightening an FPC is provided, comprising: During material discharge: the manipulator drives the manipulator execution end to drop the set distance as a whole, so that the FPC head on the touch button enters the through hole 102 of the support module 1, and the power module drives the power output end 222 to move downward L1, thereby pushing the nozzle push rod 306 to move downward L1, so that the pull block 311 moves downward L1 together with the nozzle mounting block 314 and the tension spring 310 under the elastic force of the nozzle spring group 319, so that the L1 length between the FPC head and the root is in the state of the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 217 in a protective state to enter the through hole 102 on the support module 1; then the power module drives the power output end 222 downward 2 continues to move downward L2, so that the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 217 are opened, so that the bottom end of the nozzle push rod 306 moves to contact the nozzle mounting block 314; then the power module drives the power output end 222 downward to continue to move downward L3, so that the nozzle push rod 306 pushes the nozzle mounting block 314 to move downward L3, so that the bottom end of the limit screw 313 collides with the positioning rod 315, the tension spring 310 is stretched, the suction vacuum of the nozzle 316 is disconnected and the air is blown to place the touch button in the groove 101 of the support module 1, and at this time, the last section of the FPC close to the root also enters the through hole 102 of the support module 1, and the material discharge action is completed; When picking up materials: the manipulator drives the manipulator execution end to descend as a whole, so that the suction nozzle 316 contacts the touch button, and then vacuum sucks the touch button. The power module drives the power output end 222 to move in the opposite direction to the material discharge action, that is, the power output end 222 moves upward, driving the suction nozzle push rod 306 to rise until the pulling block 311 collides with the first limit rod group 307 and stops, and the suction nozzle module 3 returns to the initial state. At the same time, the clamping jaw push rod 206 moves upward until the lug 225 in the power plate collides with the fixed block group 209, and the pushing block lug 224 compresses the first spring group 221 and collides with the top plate 202, and the clamping jaw module 2 also returns to the initial state.

[0032] As an example: When unloading: the manipulator drives the manipulator execution end to drop the first section as a whole, so that a small section of the FPC head enters the hole, and the piston rod of the cylinder 4 extends, pushing the nozzle push rod 306 to drop 5.7mm, and the pull block 311 is pushed down by the nozzle spring group 319. Since the pull block 311 and the nozzle mounting block 314 are connected by the tension spring 310, the nozzle mounting block 314 drives the nozzle 316 to drop until the pull block 311 collides with the second limit rod group 312 and is limited, so that the touch button drops 5.7mm. At this time, 2 / 3 of the length of the FPC penetrates into the hole. Since the clamping claw module 2 and the nozzle module 3 use the same power, the piston rod of the cylinder 4 extends downward by 5.7mm and also pushes the push plate 201 to move downward. However, the left clamping claw 216 and the right clamping claw 217 are not allowed to move at this time, and they need to maintain the protection state (in order to protect the FPC and make it easier for the PC to penetrate the through hole 1 02), although the push plate 201 is moving downward at this time, there is a gap between the push block 203 and the top of the clamp push rod 206, and there is a compressed first spring group 221 between the top plate 202 and the push block lug 224, so the top plate 202 can be supported and stopped by the first spring group 221, and the push block 203 will not push the clamp push rod 206 (the push block 203 just touches the top of the clamp push rod 206 after moving downward 5.7mm), so that the left clamp 216 and the right clamp 217 maintain the initial holding state during the process of the power output end 222 falling 5.7mm. When the power output end 222 just falls 5.7mm, the pull block 311 is stopped by the second limit rod group 312, and the nozzle push rod lug 309 is separated from the pull block upper lug 308, so that the nozzle 316 is stationary at this height (the touch button will also be stationary at this height); the power output end 222 falls 5.After 7mm, that is, after 2 / 3 of the length of the FPC has penetrated into the hole, the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 217 need to be opened to avoid interference between the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 217 on the suction nozzle 316 when the touch button is finally placed. Therefore, the cylinder 4 continues to descend until the lug 225 in the power plate collides with the second stop block group 210. In this process, the push plate 201 pushes the clamping jaw push rod 206 to move downward. Since there is a downward elastic force of the second spring group 228 between the fixed block 209 and the lug 225 in the power plate, when the clamping jaw push rod 206 descends, the power plate 207 will also descend, so that the power plate 207 moves the left slider 214 to the left along the transverse guide rail through the connecting rod 219, and then the left clamping jaw 216 opens to the left. At the same time, the inclined surface 227 of the inclined push plate 226 on the power plate 207 will squeeze the right slider 212 to the right through the squeezing cam 211 and squeeze the right Spring 215, then right clamp 217 opens to the right side, thus completing the opening action of left clamp 216 and right clamp 217. In the process of opening left clamp 216 and right clamp 217, the bottom end of nozzle push rod 306 moves toward convex block 320 all the time. When left clamp 216 and right clamp 217 are fully opened, the bottom end of nozzle push rod 306 just touches convex block 320. After left clamp 216 and right clamp 217 are opened, when power output end 222 continues to descend, nozzle push rod 306 pushes nozzle mounting block 314 downward, thereby making nozzle 316 downward (touch button also downward). When limit screw 313 stops on positioning rod 315, touch button is placed in designated groove 101. Finally, after suction vacuum of nozzle 316 is disconnected, air is blown to place touch button firmly in groove 101. Manipulator drives nozzle module 3 to rise and leave, completing material discharge action. Material picking action: the manipulator drives the manipulator execution end to descend as a whole, so that the suction nozzle 316 contacts the touch button on the support module, and the suction nozzle 316 sucks the touch button by vacuum, and the power output end 222 drives the suction nozzle push rod 306 to rise, and the suction nozzle mounting block 314 moves upward under the action of the tension spring 310 until the suction nozzle mounting block 314 contacts the pull block 311 and stops (at this time, the pull block 311 is supported by the suction nozzle spring group 320 and pressed on the second limit rod group 312), so that the touch button is stationary at the set height, (at this time, the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 217 are at the height of the FPC root, the FPC root is reinforced with steel sheets and will not deflect, and the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 217 are more likely to move closer to each other to protect the FPC). The jaw push rod 206 on the module 2 contacts the lug 220 on the power plate (at this time, the power plate 207 is still supported by the second spring group 228, and the lug 225 in the power plate contacts the second stop block group 210). When the power output end 222 continues to rise to make the suction nozzle push rod 306 continue to rise, the lug 223 under the push rod pulls the lug 220 on the power plate and drives the power plate 207 to compress the second spring group 228 upward. The rising linkage connecting rod 219 of the power plate 207 makes the left jaw 216 move to the right along the transverse guide rail 218. At the same time, the rising of the power plate 207 releases the squeezing of the cam 211 by the inclined surface 227 on the inclined push plate 226, thereby making the right slider 212 move to the left along the transverse guide rail 218 under the action of the right spring 215 ( Figure 3 The positive movement along the X-axis is the movement to the left, and the negative movement along the X-axis is the movement to the right), thereby completing the movement of the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 217 approaching each other. When the power plate 207 rises to the point where the lug 225 in the power plate collides with the fixed block 209, the top plate lug 205 collides with the first stop block group 204, so that the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 217 reach the initial holding state, and keep still after holding the FPC. At this time, the nozzle push rod 306 on the nozzle module 2 contacts the lug 308 on the pull block. Under the power of the power output end 222 continuing to move upward, the push block 203 separates from the top of the clamping jaw push rod 206, and the left clamping jaw 216 and the right clamping jaw 2 17 maintains the protecting state, and the pushing block 203 compresses the first spring group 221 upward until the pushing block lug 224 collides with the top plate 202, and the suction nozzle push rod 306 pulls the pulling block 311 to move upward, and at the same time drives the suction nozzle 316 to move upward along with the suction nozzle mounting block 314 through the tension spring 310, thereby moving the touch button upward, completing the action of straightening the FPC, the clamping claw module 2 and the suction nozzle module 3 return to the initial state, the power module stops working, and finally the manipulator rises to move the touch button to the next station. This method is used to automatically pick up and put materials for the touch button, realize the full automation of production, more reliably transport the touch button, and improve production efficiency.

[0033] It can be seen that when unloading: the robot execution end drops as a whole to make the first section of FPC pass through the hole 102 → the suction nozzle 316 drops to make the second section of FPC pass through the hole 102 (the clamp remains in a protective state) → the clamp opens (the touch button remains stationary at a set height) → the suction nozzle 316 drops to put the touch button into the groove 101 (the clamp remains in an open state) → the vacuum is disconnected, the vacuum is broken → the suction nozzle 316 is lifted. When picking up materials: the suction nozzle 316 drops → the vacuum is opened → the suction nozzle 316 rises to the first section → the clamp holds the FPC (the suction nozzle 316 remains stationary at a set height) → the suction nozzle 316 rises to straighten the FPC → the suction nozzle 316 rises. By designing the suction nozzle module 3 and the clamping jaw module 2, the touch button is linked to be picked up and placed, and the touch button is automatically picked up and placed, which solves the problem that the FPC is damaged during the pick-up and placement process due to the swing of the FPC during use, resulting in the failure of picking up and placing materials. Through the linkage between the clamping jaw module 2 and the nozzle module 3, one power is used to complete the entire mechanism action, so that each action can be controlled accurately by the mechanism, making the mechanism movement more accurate and stable. In addition, the method of using the clamping jaw to protect the FPC can confine the FPC in a safe space even if the FPC is in a bent shape, and the FPC can be effectively inserted into the through hole 102. At the same time, the clamping jaw can be made of anti-static non-metallic material, which effectively avoids damage to the FPC due to problems with the material of the clamping jaw itself.
