Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an electronic component working mechanism that uses an adjuster to drive the working tool to swing in at least one direction in an arc to adjust the working angle, thereby improving the accuracy of the operation. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, chip-on-film (COF) packaging of electronic components (such as chips) primarily utilizes a flexible tape or flexible circuit board as a carrier with circuit patterns. The chip is then fixed to the tape or flexible circuit board using a thermosetting process. The circuit pattern on the flexible circuit board has multiple electrical contacts, and the chip also has multiple pins. The thermosetting process involves a transporter in the thermosetting mechanism driving a moving arm to move in the first, second, and third directions (e.g., X, Y, Z directions). The moving arm, in turn, drives a thermosetting fixture with a heating element to move in the X-Y-Z directions. The thermosetting fixture transfers the chip to be thermoset onto the flexible circuit board supported by a thermosetting holder, aligning the chip's multiple pins with the flexible circuitry. The thermoforming fixture then thermo-presses the multiple electrical contacts of the chip onto the multiple electrical contacts of the flexible circuit board, thus completing the thermoforming operation. However, the transporter of this thermoforming mechanism uses multiple assembled X-direction, Y-direction, and Z-direction components to drive the moving arm to move in the X-Y-Z directions. Since the thermoforming fixture is assembled on the moving arm, when the moving arm tilts forward and backward or left and right due to the cumulative assembly error between the X-direction, Y-direction, and Z-direction components, it is impossible for the thermoforming fixture to apply force evenly to press the multiple contacts of the chip. As a result, some contacts of the chip cannot be properly fixed to some electrical contacts of the flexible circuit board, causing poor thermoforming quality and affecting the accuracy of subsequent testing processes.

[0035] To provide a further understanding of the present invention, a preferred embodiment is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0036] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 The working mechanism 10 of the present invention includes a movable arm 20.

[0037] The device includes a work tool 30 and an adjuster 40, and a temperature controller 50 can be added as needed. The moving arm 20 is driven by a transporter (not shown) to move in at least one direction. In this embodiment, the moving arm 20 moves in the first, second, and third directions (such as X-Y-Z directions) to drive the work tool 30 and the adjuster 40 to move synchronously. The work tool 30 is mounted on the adjuster 40 to perform preset operations on electronic components. Furthermore, the work tool 30 can be a pick-up tool for performing transfer operations, a pressing tool for performing transfer and pressing operations, or a tool for performing transfer and heating operations. The hot press fixture for pressing operations may also be an image acquisition device for performing image acquisition operations. The type of the working tool 30 of the present invention is not limited to the aforementioned objects and can be changed according to the operational requirements. The temperature controller 50 may be configured on the working tool 30 or between the working tool 30 and the adjuster 40. The temperature controller 50 may be a cooling wafer or a temperature control seat or heating element with fluid. In this embodiment, the working tool 30 is a hot press fixture with a temperature controller 50, a suction nozzle 31 and a pressing part 32. The temperature controller 50 is a heating element and is assembled on the working tool 30 so that the working tool 30 can perform hot press operations.

[0038] The adjuster 40 includes a support unit and an adjustment unit. The support unit is mounted between the moving arm 20 and the work tool 30 and has a plurality of support fixtures. Further, the support unit may include a first support fixture 41 and a second support fixture 42, with the first support fixture 41 mounted on the moving arm 20 and the second support fixture 42 used for assembling the work tool 30. Alternatively, the support unit may include a first support fixture 41, a second support fixture 42, a third support fixture 43, and a fourth support fixture 44, with the first support fixture 41 mounted on the moving arm 20 and the fourth support fixture 44 used for assembling the work tool 30. However, the number of support fixtures in the support unit and the type of use of one of its support fixtures for assembling the work tool 30 vary depending on the operational requirements and are not limited to the types disclosed in this invention. In this embodiment, the support unit includes a first support fixture 41 and a second support fixture 42. 42. The third support 43 and the fourth support 44. The first support 41 is mounted on the moving arm 20 and has elongated holes 411 on the two side plates. A first accommodating space 412 is provided between the two side plates. The second support 42 is mounted in the first accommodating space 412 of the first support 41. The third support 43 has a shaft 431 arranged in a Z-axis direction. The shaft 431 passes through the second support 42 and is connected to a panel 432 that spans the top surface of the second support 42. The third support 43 is mounted and connected to the lower part of the second support 42 and rotates horizontally in an arc around the shaft 431 as the rotation center. The fourth support 44 is located below the third support 43 and is generally concave. It has a second accommodating space 441 inside and uses the bottom as an assembly part 442 for assembling the work tool 30.

[0039] The adjustment unit comprises sliding and connecting components that cooperate with each other among a plurality of carriers. The sliding components have arc-shaped guide parts. By utilizing the relative arc displacement between the guide parts of the sliding components and the connecting components, the adjuster 40 drives the working tool 30 to swing in at least one direction to adjust the working angle. Furthermore, the sliding components can be fixed or movable, allowing for arc displacement in at least one direction. The connecting components can be blocks, rollers, or arc surfaces. For example, the connecting components can be blocks with an arc-shaped contact surface that cooperates with the guide parts of the sliding components. Alternatively, the connecting components can be rollers that contact the guide parts of the sliding components. For example, the mating component can be an arc surface and located on the inner bottom surface of the carrier to cooperate with the guide portion of the sliding component; furthermore, the adjustment unit is a first sliding component and a first mating component with a first guide portion that cooperate between the first carrier 41 and the second carrier 42, or a second sliding component and a third mating component with a third guide portion that cooperate between the third carrier 43 and the fourth carrier 44. The type, number, and position of the sliding component vary according to the operational requirements and are not limited to the form disclosed in this invention; in this embodiment, the adjustment unit is mounted on the side of the second carrier 42 of the carrier unit. The unit is equipped with a first sliding member 451. The top surface of the first sliding member 451 has a first guide portion 4511 with an arc-shaped curve, and the bottom surface has a second guide portion 4512 with an arc-shaped curve. The first sliding member 451 extends through the elongated hole 411 of the first support 41 and can move within the elongated hole 411. An adjustment unit is positioned outside the side plate of the first support 41 and above the first sliding member 451, with a first engaging member 452. The bottom surface of the first engaging member 452 has a first contact surface 4521 with an arc-shaped curve. Because the first contact surface 4521 and the first guide portion 4511 have mutually matching arc-shaped curves, the first engaging member 452... The first contact surface 4521 contacts the first guide portion 4511 of the first sliding member 451, which allows the first sliding member 451 to make arc-shaped curve displacement within the elongated hole 411 of the first support 41. The adjustment unit also has a plurality of second mating parts 453, which are rollers, arranged outside the side plate of the first support 41 and below the first sliding member 451. The second mating parts 453 contact the second guide portion 4512 of the first sliding member 451 with their outer ring surfaces, which also allows the first sliding member 451 to make arc-shaped curve displacement. The first mating parts 452 and the second mating parts 453 also have a limiting function to prevent the first sliding member 451 from shaking up and down.Furthermore, the adjustment unit has a second sliding member 454 fixedly mounted below the third support 43 of the support unit. The bottom surface of the second sliding member 454 has a third guide portion 4541 with an arc-shaped curve, and the top surface has a fourth guide portion 4542 with an arc-shaped curve. The second sliding member 454 is located in the second accommodating space 441 of the fourth support 44. The adjustment unit also has a third mating member 455 on the inner bottom surface of the fourth support 44. The third mating member 455 is an arc-shaped surface and is formed on the fourth support 44. However, the third mating member 455 can also be a block with an arc surface and assembled on the inner bottom surface of the fourth support 44. In this embodiment, the third mating member 455 has an arc-shaped curve that cooperates with the third guide portion 4541. The fourth support 44 is contacted and adhered to the third guide part 4541, causing the fourth support 44 to move in an arc-shaped curve. The adjustment unit also has a plurality of fourth coupling parts 456, which are rollers, arranged on the inner surface of the side plate of the fourth support 44 and above the second sliding member 454. The fourth coupling parts 456 contact the fourth guide part 4542 of the second sliding member 454 with their outer ring surfaces, also causing the fourth support 44 to move in an arc-shaped curve. The third coupling parts 455 and the fourth coupling parts 456 also have a limiting function to prevent the fourth support 44 from shaking up and down. Since the fourth coupling parts 456 are assembled on the fourth support 44, the fourth support 44 is connected to the second sliding member 454 via the fourth coupling parts 456, thus assembling and connecting the third support 43 for assembly work tool 30.

[0040] Furthermore, the adjustment unit is equipped with at least one control device to drive the sliding component or the carrier to operate. More specifically, the adjustment unit may have a first control device between the first carrier 41 and the second carrier 42 to drive the first sliding component 451 and the working tool 30 to swing in a second direction (e.g., the Y direction) to adjust the working angle. Alternatively, a second control device may be provided between the third carrier 43 and the fourth carrier 44 to drive the fourth carrier 44 and the working tool 30 to swing in a first direction (e.g., the X direction) to adjust the working angle. Alternatively, a third control device may be provided between the second carrier 42 and the third carrier 43. The working angle is adjusted by driving the third carrier 43 to swing horizontally in an arc. In this embodiment, the adjustment unit includes a first adjusting device, a second adjusting device, and a third adjusting device. The first adjusting device is a first driving member 4572 mounted on the outer side of the first sliding member 451 with a first support 4571, and a first abutting member 4573 is provided on the outer side of the first carrier 41 and at a position opposite to the first driving member 4572. The first abutting member 4573 is abutted by the first driving member 4572, so that the first driving member 4572 drives the first sliding member 451, the second carrier 42, and the third carrier 43.

[0041] The fourth support 44 and the working tool 30 swing in an arc in the Y direction to adjust the working angle. A first spring 4574 is provided between the first sliding member 451 on the second support 42 and the first support 41 to drive the second support 42 and the first sliding member 451 to reset. In this embodiment, the first spring 4574 is provided between the first support 4571 and the first support 41. The second adjustment device is a second drive member 4582 assembled on the first side of the fourth support 44 with the second support 4581, and a second abutment member 4583 is provided at the position of the second sliding member 454 relative to the second drive member 4582 for the second drive member 4582 to abut, so that the second drive member 4582 drives the fourth support 44 and the working tool 30 to swing in an arc in the X direction to adjust the working angle. A second spring is also provided between the second sliding member 454 on the fourth support 44 and the third support 43. Spring 4584 is provided to drive the fourth support 44 to reset. In this embodiment, a third support 4585 is provided on the second side of the fourth support 44, and a second spring 4584 is provided between the third support 4585 and the second sliding member 454. The third adjustment device is equipped with a third driving member 4591 on the second support 42. The third driving member 4591 includes a motor and a screw seat assembly. A push block 4592 is installed on the screw seat. The third adjustment device is provided with a third blocking member 4593 on the third support 43 for the push block 4592 to push. The third driving member 4591 drives the third support 43, the fourth support 44 and the working tool 30 to make horizontal arc displacement to adjust the working angle via the push block 4592 and the third blocking member 4593. A third spring 4594 is also provided between the second support 42 and the third support 43 to drive the third support 43 and the working tool 30 to reset.

[0042] Please see Figure 4When the moving arm 20 tilts the work tool 30 at the Y-direction angle due to accumulated assembly errors of related components, during adjustment and correction, the first drive member 4572 of the first control tool of the control adjuster 40 is operated, causing the rod of the first drive member 4572 to abut against the first stop member 4573. Since the first stop member 4573 is fixed to the first support 41 and will not move, the first drive member 4572 is subjected to a reverse force and moves in the Y-direction. The first drive member 4572 then drives the first sliding member 451 to move via the first support 4571. The first sliding member 451 uses the first guide part 4511 with an arc-shaped top surface to match the first contact surface 45 of the first mating member 452 with an arc-shaped top surface. 21, and can make arc-shaped displacement in the Y direction within the elongated hole 411 of the first carrier 41. The first sliding component 451 and the second guide part 4512 with an arc-shaped bottom surface are used in conjunction with the second connecting component 453 to make the first sliding component 451 move smoothly. The first sliding component 451 drives the second carrier 42 to make arc-shaped displacement in the Y direction at the same time. The second carrier 42 drives the working tool 30 to make arc-shaped displacement in the Y direction through the third carrier 43, the second sliding component 454 and the fourth carrier 44, thereby adjusting and correcting the Y-direction swing angle of the working tool 30, so as to avoid the working tool 30 tilting in the Y direction, and achieve the practical benefit of improving the accuracy of the Y-direction swing angle of the working tool 30.

[0043] Please see Figure 5 When the moving arm 20 tilts the work tool 30 at an X-direction angle due to accumulated assembly errors of related components, during adjustment and correction, the second drive member 4582 of the second control device of the operating adjuster 40 is manipulated, causing the rod of the second drive member 4582 to abut against the second stop member 4583 of the second sliding member 454. Since the second sliding member 454 is fixed to the third support 43 and will not shift, the second drive member 4582 is subjected to a reverse force and shifts in the X-direction. The second drive member 4582 drives the fourth support 44 to shift via the second support 4581. The second sliding member 454 utilizes... The third guide part 4541 with an arc-shaped curve on the bottom surface, together with the third connecting part 455 with an arc-shaped curve on the inner bottom surface of the fourth carrier 44, causes the fourth carrier 44 to make arc-shaped curve displacement in the X direction. The second sliding part 454, together with the fourth guide part 4542 with an arc-shaped curve on the top surface and the fourth connecting part 456, makes the fourth carrier 44 smoothly drive the working tool 30 to make arc-shaped curve displacement in the X direction, thereby adjusting and correcting the X-direction swing angle of the working tool 30, so as to avoid the working tool 30 tilting in the X direction, and achieve the practical benefit of improving the accuracy of the X-direction swing angle of the working tool 30.

[0044] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 7The working mechanism 10 of this invention can be applied to the thermoforming of a wafer 61 and a flexible circuit board 62. The working tool 30 of the working mechanism 10 is a thermoforming tool with a temperature controller 50, a suction nozzle 31, and a pressing part 32. The suction nozzle 31 picks up the wafer 61 to be thermoformed. Since the multiple pins of the wafer 61 must be accurately aligned with the electrical contacts of the flexible circuit board 62 supported by the lower thermoforming base 70, when adjusting the horizontal positioning angle of the wafer 61 picked up by the working tool 30, the third driving member 4591 of the third control tool of the control adjuster 40 is used. The third driving member 4591 drives the push block 4592 to move forward. The push block 4592 pushes the third blocking member 4593 of the third support 43 to actuate. The third support 43 is then actuated by the shaft 43. The third carrier 43 rotates horizontally below the second carrier 42 with the second sliding component 454, the fourth carrier 44 and the working tool 30 are connected and assembled below the third carrier 43. The third carrier 43 drives the working tool 30 to rotate horizontally through the second sliding component 454 and the fourth carrier 44 to adjust the horizontal placement angle of the chip 61 picked up by the working tool 30, so that the plurality of pins of the chip 61 are accurately aligned with the electrical contacts of the flexible circuit board 62. The moving arm 20 of the working mechanism 10 drives the working tool 30, the adjuster 40 and the chip 61 to move downward in the Z direction, so that the plurality of pins of the chip 61 are hot-pressed and fixed to the electrical contacts of the flexible circuit board 62, thereby achieving the practical benefits of improving the accuracy and quality of the hot-pressing operation.

In this embodiment, after the adjuster 40 has driven the work tool 30 to swing and adjust the working angle in the X-Y direction, the working mechanism 10 uses the moving arm 20 to move the work tool 30 and the adjuster 40 in the X-Y direction to the material changing position, and then moves the work tool 30 in the Z direction to the second transfer device 103 to pick up the wafer 61 to be pressed. After picking up the material, the moving arm 20 of the working mechanism 10 moves the work tool 30 and the adjuster 40 in the X-Y direction in the opposite direction to the hot pressing position. The conveying device 100 uses a conveyor 104 to transport another electronic component, which is a flexible circuit board 62, to the hot pressing position. The imaging device 110 is mounted on the machine 80 and is equipped with at least one imager to capture images of the electronic component. In this embodiment, the image acquisition device 110 uses an image acquisition unit 111 that performs bidirectional image acquisition to capture the image chip 61 and the flexible circuit board 62, and transmits the image data to the central control unit. The central control unit controls the working mechanism 10 to adjust the horizontal positioning angle of the chip 61 according to the image data. The working mechanism 10 uses the adjuster 40 to drive the working tool 30 and the chip 61 to adjust the horizontal positioning working angle, so that the plurality of pins of the chip 61 are accurately aligned with the electrical contacts located on the flexible circuit board 62 to perform thermo-pressing. After the thermo-pressing is completed, the conveyor 104 of the conveying device 100 outputs the flexible circuit board 62 containing the chip 61. The central control unit is used to control and integrate the operation of each device to perform automated operation and achieve the practical benefit of improving work efficiency.
