Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automated optical inspection (AOI) equipment technology, specifically a sorting component of an AOI inspection equipment. Background Technology

[0002] In the electronics manufacturing industry, as electronic products become smaller, more refined, and more multifunctional, the requirements for the accuracy and efficiency of product quality inspection are increasing. AOI (Automated Optical Inspection) equipment, as an important quality inspection method, can quickly and accurately detect various defects in electronic components and is widely used on production lines. After AOI inspection is completed, good and defective products need to be sorted to achieve product classification management and facilitate subsequent production processes.

[0003] The shortcomings of traditional AOI inspection equipment's sorting components are: Traditional sorting methods often rely on manual operation, which is not only inefficient, but also prone to errors due to long hours of repetitive work, affecting product quality and production efficiency. 2. Some early AOI inspection equipment sorting components have relatively simple structures, usually using a single mechanical structure to perform sorting actions. This structure has poor flexibility and insufficient adaptability when dealing with various types and sizes of products, and cannot meet diverse production needs. Therefore, a sorting component for AOI inspection equipment is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sorting component for an AOI (Automated Optical Inspection) device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a sorting component of an AOI inspection device, comprising a second sub-conveying component, a second sorting structure, an AOI inspection structure, and a main conveying component; support rods are installed on both sides of the bottom of the main conveying component, which allows the main conveying component to be placed stably, ensuring its stability during operation and guaranteeing the reliable execution of the conveying task; an AOI inspection structure is installed at one end of the main conveying component, which is used for automatic optical inspection of the conveyed items, efficiently identifying the characteristic information of the items and providing accurate data support for subsequent sorting work; through precise inspection, the accuracy and efficiency of sorting can be greatly improved, reducing reliance on manual operation and thus reducing logistics costs; a first sub-conveying component is installed on one outer side wall of the main conveying component, which realizes the initial classification or buffering of items, and can convey items to different processing paths according to the detection results of the AOI inspection structure or preset rules; the first sub-conveying component connects with the main conveying component. The coordinated operation of the conveyor components makes the entire sorting process more flexible and efficient. A first sorting structure is installed on the outer wall of one end of the first conveyor component. This first sorting structure enables further precise classification of items, allowing for detailed classification based on detailed data provided by the AOI detection structure or pre-set sorting rules. A second conveyor component is installed on the outer wall of the other end of the main conveyor component, and the first sorting structure is installed on the second conveyor component. The second and first conveyor components are positioned opposite each other, forming a dual-path structure for item sorting. The direction of item flow can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs or sorting strategies. Simultaneously, under the action of the first sorting structure, the second conveyor component not only performs preliminary item classification but also performs more detailed and precise classification based on real-time data provided by the AOI detection structure. This not only improves sorting efficiency and accuracy but also greatly enhances the adaptability and flexibility of the entire sorting system, enabling it to better meet the needs of various complex sorting tasks.

[0006] Preferably, the second sorting and conveying assembly is equipped with a transmission frame. The transmission frame provides a certain load-bearing capacity and stability, ensuring the safety and reliability of the items during transmission. Transmission rollers are installed between the transmission frames, and the transmission rollers are mounted on the output end of the transmission motor, which is fixed to the outer wall of the transmission frame. The transmission rollers allow the items to be transported smoothly and continuously on the transmission frame, ensuring the smooth progress of the sorting process. The transmission motor, as a power source, provides stable power for the rotation of the transmission rollers. By controlling the speed of the transmission motor, the transmission speed of the items can be flexibly adjusted to adapt to different sorting needs. A sorting and recycling box is provided on one side of the transmission frame. The sorting and recycling box is designed to receive unqualified or specially processed items sorted by the first sorting structure. When an item is detected by the AOI detection structure and determined to be non-compliant with the preset standard, the first sorting structure will quickly and accurately sort out these items and directly import them into the sorting and recycling box.

[0007] Preferably, the second sorting structure is equipped with a sorting rotary motor, a rotating base is mounted on the output end of the sorting rotary motor, a robotic arm is mounted on the top of the rotating base, and an automatic gripper is mounted on one end of the robotic arm. The automatic gripper can accurately grasp and release items with moderate gripping force, which will not damage the items and ensure the stability of the items during the sorting process. The robotic arm is connected to the sorting rotary motor through the rotating base. The sorting rotary motor acts as a power source, driving the rotating base to rotate, thereby driving the robotic arm and the automatic gripper to perform multi-angle and multi-directional sorting operations. This not only improves the flexibility and efficiency of sorting, but also makes the sorting process more accurate and reliable. In addition, the flexible cooperation between the robotic arm and the automatic gripper allows the second sorting structure to meet different sorting needs, greatly improving sorting efficiency and accuracy.

[0008] Preferably, the AOI detection structure includes a detection chamber. A height telescopic cylinder is installed on one side wall of the detection chamber, and a bracket is installed on the output end of the height telescopic cylinder. A scanner is installed on the crossbar of the bracket. The scanner uses high-precision, high-speed scanning technology, which can quickly perform omnidirectional, blind-spot-free scanning detection on items placed in the detection chamber. The height telescopic cylinder, as a driving component, has a large extension range and is flexible in adjustment. It can be precisely adjusted according to the height and size of different items to ensure that the scanner is always in the optimal scanning position. The bracket serves to fix and support the scanner, and can withstand the vibration and impact generated by the scanner during high-speed scanning, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the scanning results.

[0009] Preferably, the main conveying assembly has a conveyor frame with conveyor rollers installed between the conveyor frames. The conveyor rollers are mounted on the output end of the conveyor motor. A receiving box is provided on one side of the conveyor frame. The receiving box is designed to receive items that have been inspected by the AOI inspection structure. When the items are smoothly moved to the position of the receiving box along the conveyor frame by the conveyor rollers, the receiving box can steadily catch the items, preventing them from falling or being damaged due to inertia or improper operation. At the same time, the close cooperation between the receiving box and the conveyor frame ensures the smoothness and efficiency of the sorting process. In addition, the conveyor motor, as a power source, provides a strong guarantee for the continuous and uniform rotation of the conveyor rollers, thereby ensuring the stability and accuracy of the items during the conveying process. This not only improves the sorting efficiency of the AOI inspection equipment but also ensures the accuracy of sorting, allowing unqualified items to be separated in a timely and effective manner, providing convenience for subsequent item processing.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. This utility model ensures a smooth and efficient sorting process by closely coordinating the components of the AOI detection structure, the first sorting structure, and the second sorting structure. Simultaneously, the conveyor motor, as the power source, provides a continuous and reliable power guarantee for the entire sorting process, enabling stable and efficient sorting operations. Furthermore, the sorting components of this AOI detection equipment have a high degree of automation, significantly reducing manual intervention, lowering logistics costs, and improving production efficiency, which is of great significance for enhancing the competitiveness and economic benefits of enterprises.

[0011] 2. This utility model further improves sorting efficiency by adopting a parallel working mode of dual conveyor components (first conveyor component and second conveyor component), making the entire production process more compact and efficient. Furthermore, through the combined use of robotic arms and automatic grippers, an adjustable sorting structure is achieved. Its high precision and flexibility ensure the accuracy and stability of sorting, effectively avoiding production delays or resource waste caused by sorting errors, and greatly expanding the application scope of AOI inspection equipment.
