[0050] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0051] like Figures 1-5 , Figure 13 As shown, the circuit board production system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a board separating device 10, a first transfer component, a second transfer component, a conveying device 30, a first robot arm 23, a second robot arm 40, and a tray conveying device 50.

[0052] Specifically, a whole board circuit board 2c is sandwiched between a carrier 2a and a pressure plate 2b to form an assembly. The board separation equipment 10 cuts the whole board circuit board 2c to form waste board edges and finished products. Further, the board separation equipment 10 scans the whole board circuit board 2c to identify good and defective products, and retains the defective products without cutting them, while cutting the good board circuit boards 2c into individual pieces. That is, after separation, the defective products remain connected to the waste board edges, while the good products are separated from the waste board edges. Finally, the assembly after separation is removed from the board separation equipment 10.

[0053] The conveying device 30, the first transfer assembly, and the second transfer assembly are located on the same side of the slab separating device 10. The conveying device 30 is used to transfer the assembly from the slab separating device 10 to the first transfer assembly and the second transfer assembly. The first robot arm 23 is used to remove the defective board edges from the assembly in the first transfer assembly and the second transfer assembly. Since the defective products remain connected to the defective board edges, the defective products are removed from the carrier 2a at the same time as the defective board edges are removed. The carrier 2a forms a vacancy position corresponding to the defective products. The first robot arm 23 replenishes the good circuit boards 2c in the second transfer assembly to the corresponding vacancy position in the carrier 2a in the first transfer assembly. The second robot arm 40 is located between the first transfer assembly and the tray conveying device 50. The second robot arm 40 is used to transfer the entire tray of good circuit boards 2c in the first transfer assembly to the tray conveying device 50. The tray conveying device 50 is used to transfer the circuit boards 2c arranged as required in the tray 51 to the next workstation.

[0054] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, Figure 3 The diagram shows a three-dimensional representation of the structure with a protective cover. Figure 14 The image shown is a perspective view of vehicle 2a. Figure 15 The image shown is a three-dimensional view of pressure plate 2b. Figure 12 The circuit board 2c shown is placed on the rotating mechanism 70.

[0055] According to the embodiment of the present invention, the circuit board production system 1 is directly connected to the production line through the material tray conveying device 50 to form an assembly line, ensuring that all circuit boards 2c output by the material tray conveying device 50 are good quality circuit boards 2c. At the same time, they are arranged according to demand, realizing unmanned operation. The overall layout is reasonable and the structure is compact, which improves production efficiency and product yield, reduces production and supply costs, and reduces labor costs in the factory.

[0056] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in the circuit board production system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the board separating equipment 10 includes an identification unit for scanning the identification information corresponding to each circuit board 2c on the whole board; and a main control unit 12 for receiving and reading the identification information and running it. The main control unit 12 marks the circuit boards 2c that meet the requirements as good products and marks the circuit boards 2c that do not meet the requirements as unqualified products, so that the board separating equipment 10 can distinguish between good circuit boards 2c and unqualified circuit boards 2c.

[0057] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figures 6-9As shown, in the circuit board production system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the first transfer component includes a first transport track 24, a first sliding module 25, and a first transfer platform 21. The first transport track 24 is disposed between the first sliding module and the conveying device 30. The first transfer platform 21 is movably disposed on the first sliding module 25. The first transfer platform 21 has a first position and a second position. The first transfer platform 21 is movable between the first position and the second position. When the first transfer platform 21 is in the first position, the first transport track 24 is connected to the first transfer platform 21, and the first transfer platform 21 lifts the assembly located on the first transport track 24. The first transport track 24 is used to drive the assembly to move to the first transfer platform 21. The first transfer component also includes a first vacuum generator and a vacuum logic valve connected to the first vacuum generator. Each vacuum logic valve is arranged on the first transfer platform 21, and each vacuum logic valve is provided with a first suction nozzle 213. Therefore, the vacuum logic valve is closed when there is no vacuum above each first suction nozzle 213 or when a defective circuit board 2c is placed above it. Closing the vacuum logic valve when there is no vacuum prevents vacuum leakage and triggers an alarm for abnormal equipment. Closing the vacuum logic valve when a defective circuit board 2c is placed above it prevents vacuum leakage at the defective circuit board 2c and triggers an alarm for abnormal equipment. In this way, the adsorption of each first suction nozzle 213 can be controlled individually, thereby increasing flexibility and practicality.

[0058] In other words, the assembly is moved to the first transfer platform 21 via the first transport track 24, thereby providing the assembly to the first transfer platform 21. The first transfer platform 21 has a first position and a second position, and the first transfer platform 21 is movable between the first position and the second position. The first position is close to the first transport track 24, and the second position is far away from the first transport track 24. When the first transfer platform 21 is empty, the first transfer platform 21 moves towards the first transport track 24 to the first position, and the first transport track 24 transports the assembly to the first transfer platform 21. The first transfer platform 21 moves to the second position with the whole tray of good products, thereby providing them to the equipment of other workstations.

[0059] In some embodiments, a first transport track 24 is provided with a first conveyor belt, which transports the assembly to a first transfer platform 21. The first transfer platform 21 includes a first receiving platform 212 and a first driving unit 214. The first driving unit 214 is connected to the first receiving platform 212 to drive the first receiving platform 212 to move along the Y-axis.

[0060] In other words, when the first transfer platform 21 is in the first position, the first conveyor belt is higher than the first receiving platform 212, thereby preventing the first receiving platform 212 from blocking the movement of the assembly on the first conveyor belt. At the same time, the first receiving platform 212 is located between two opposing first conveyor belts, allowing the assembly to move above the first receiving platform 212. When the assembly moves above the first receiving platform 212, the first receiving platform 212 is spaced apart from the assembly. The first driving unit 214 drives the first receiving platform 212 to move along the Y-axis until the first receiving platform 212 contacts the assembly and causes the assembly to be spaced apart from the first conveyor belt, preventing interference between the operating first conveyor belt and the assembly, thereby realizing the placement of the assembly on the first transfer platform 21.

[0061] In some embodiments, the first drive unit 214 includes a servo motor, which enables adjustment of multiple height positions of the first accommodating stage 212, thereby facilitating the adaptation of the first accommodating stage 212 to other devices and corresponding height adjustment when the first accommodating stage 212 moves to the second position.

[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first transfer platform 21 includes a first limiting component 211, which is located on the side of the first transfer platform 21 away from the first transport track 24. When the assembly is on the first transport track 24, the highest point of the first limiting component 211 is at least higher than the bottom surface of the assembly. This arrangement stops the assembly being transported on the first conveyor belt by the stopping action of the first limiting component 211, allowing the assembly to remain directly above the first receiving platform 212.

[0063] The first limiting component 211 includes at least a limiting baffle and a fastener. The limiting baffle is fastened to the first transfer table 21 by the fastener. The limiting baffle is provided with a waist-shaped hole extending along the Y-axis direction, so that the position of the limiting baffle can be adjusted by the fastener.

[0064] In some embodiments, at least one first baffle is provided on the first transport track 24 at a position opposite to a transfer platform. When the assembly is on the first transport track 24, the first baffle is spaced apart from the assembly, thereby limiting the assembly above the assembly by setting the first baffle. The first receiving platform 212 is driven by the first driving unit 214 to move along the Y-axis until the first receiving platform 212 contacts the assembly and drives the assembly to move to a stop with the first baffle.

[0065] That is, when the first transfer platform 21 is in the first position, the first receiving platform 212 is movable between the first lifting position and the first yielding position. When the first receiving platform 212 is in the first yielding position, the first receiving platform 212 is spaced apart from the assembly. When the first receiving platform 212 is in the first lifting position, the side of the assembly facing the first receiving platform 212 abuts against the first receiving platform 212 and is spaced apart from the first conveyor belt. The side of the assembly away from the first receiving platform 212 abuts against the first baffle.

[0066] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the second transfer component includes a second transport track 26 and a second transfer platform 22. The second transport track 26 is connected to the second transfer platform 22, and the second transport track 26 is used to move the assembly to the second transfer platform 22. The first transfer platform 21 and the second transfer platform 22 are both located on the same side of the separating device 10.

[0067] The second transfer assembly also includes a second vacuum generator and vacuum logic valves connected to it. Each vacuum logic valve is arranged on the second transfer platform, and each vacuum logic valve is equipped with a second suction nozzle 226. Thus, the vacuum logic valve closes when an empty space or a defective circuit board 2c is placed above each second suction nozzle 226. Closing the vacuum logic valve when empty prevents vacuum leakage and triggers an equipment malfunction alarm. Closing the vacuum logic valve when a defective circuit board 2c is placed above it prevents vacuum leakage at the defective circuit board 2c, thus preventing equipment malfunction alarms. This design allows for individual control of whether or not each second suction nozzle 226 is adsorbed, thereby increasing flexibility and practicality.

[0068] like Figure 14 As shown, the carrier 2a is provided with multiple arrays of receiving positions, and each receiving position contains a circuit board 2c. The shape and size of the circuit board 2c are roughly the same as the shape and size of the receiving position. The bottom wall of the receiving position is provided with a clearance hole, so that each first suction nozzle 213 and second suction nozzle 226 can pass through the clearance hole to suction the circuit board 2c.

[0069] The second transfer platform 22 includes a second limiting component 221 and a second receiving platform 225. The second limiting component 221 can move between a stop position and a clearance position in a direction toward or away from the second transfer platform 22. The second limiting component 221 includes a power unit and a stop block 222 that is driven to the power unit. When the second limiting component 221 is in the clearance position, the stop block 222 clears the vehicle 2a placed on the second transfer platform 22. When the second limiting component 221 is in the stop position, the stop block 222 restricts the vehicle 2a from moving toward the stop block 222 in the X-axis direction.

[0070] When the assembly is on the second transport track 26, as the assembly moves above the second receiving platform 225, the second limiting member is in a stop position. The stop block 222 can prevent the assembly from moving further, allowing the assembly to stop directly above the second receiving platform 225. After the assembly moves onto the second receiving platform 225, the second limiting component 221 moves to an avoidance position.

[0071] In some embodiments, a second transport track 26 is provided with a second conveyor belt, which is used to move the assembly to a second transfer table 22. The second transfer table 22 also includes a second drive unit 224, which is used to drive the second receiving table 225 to move along the Y-axis direction.

[0072] In other words, the second conveyor belt is higher than the second receiving platform 225, thereby preventing the second receiving platform 225 from blocking the movement of the assembly on the second conveyor belt. At the same time, the second receiving platform 225 is located between two opposing second conveyor belts, allowing the assembly to move above the second receiving platform 225. When the assembly moves above the second receiving platform 225, the second receiving platform 225 is spaced apart from the assembly. The second driving unit 224 drives the second receiving platform 225 to move along the Y-axis until the second receiving platform 225 contacts the assembly and causes the assembly to space apart from the second conveyor belt, preventing interference between the operating second conveyor belt and the assembly, thereby realizing the placement of the assembly on the second transfer platform 22.

[0073] In some embodiments, the second drive unit 224 includes a lifting cylinder, which simplifies the setup of the components of the first transfer table 21 since the second transfer table 22 is fixed in the X-axis direction.

[0074] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 As shown, the second limiting assembly 221 also includes a support base and a third drive unit 223. Both the third drive unit 223 and the stop block 222 are mounted on the support base. The support base is connected to the power unit via a transmission connection. The stop block 222 is connected to the third drive unit 223 and is driven by the third drive unit 223 to move along the Y-axis. The height of the stop block 222 can be adjusted by the third drive unit 223, thereby allowing it to move along the Y-axis to avoid the assembly after it has moved directly above the second receiving platform 225.

[0075] The power unit includes, but is not limited to, an electric motor, and the third drive unit 223 includes, but is not limited to, a lifting cylinder.

[0076] In some embodiments, at least one second baffle is provided on the second transport track 26 at a position opposite to the second transfer table 22. When the assembly is on the second transport track 26, the second baffle is spaced apart from the assembly, thereby limiting the assembly above the assembly by setting the second baffle. The second receiving table 225 is driven by the second driving unit 224 to move along the Y-axis until the second receiving table 225 contacts the assembly and drives the assembly to move to a stop with the second baffle.

[0077] In other words, when the assembly is on the second conveyor belt, the second receiving platform 225 is movable between the second lifting position and the second yielding position. When the second receiving platform 225 is in the second yielding position, the second receiving platform 225 is spaced apart from the assembly. When the second receiving platform 225 is in the second lifting position, the side of the assembly facing the second receiving platform 225 abuts against the second receiving platform 225, while being spaced apart from the second conveyor belt, and the side of the assembly away from the second receiving platform 225 abuts against the second baffle.

[0078] According to embodiments of the present invention, such as a screening and feeding device, Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, both the first transfer stage 21 and the second transfer stage 22 include a vacuum generator, and both the first transfer stage 21 and the second transfer stage 22 include multiple arrays of suction nozzles 213, with a vacuum logic valve corresponding to each suction nozzle 213.

[0079] The first robotic arm 23 delivers the pressure plate 2b of the assembly on the first transfer table 21. After the pressure plate 2b is removed, the circuit board 2c is exposed. The first robotic arm 23 delivers the pressure plate 2b of the assembly on the second transfer table 22. After the pressure plate 2b is removed, the circuit board 2c is exposed. The first robotic arm 23 sequentially delivers the defective products and scrap boards from the first transfer table 21 and the second transfer table 22 to the waste recycling bin H2. Then, the first robotic arm 23 picks up the good circuit boards 2c from the second transfer table 22 and replenishes them in the empty position of the carrier 2a on the first transfer table 21, ensuring that the entire tray of carrier 2a on the first transfer table 21 is filled with good circuit boards 2c.

[0080] In some embodiments, the first robotic arm 23 is located on the side of the first transfer platform 21 away from the second transfer platform 22, or the first robotic arm 23 is located on the side of the second transfer platform 22 away from the first transfer platform 21.

[0081] It should be noted that there are one or more first transfer stations 21 and one or more second transfer stations 22. Usually, the number of first transfer stations 21 is greater than or equal to the number of second transfer stations 22 to ensure the material feeding rhythm of other workstations.

[0082] In addition, the first robotic arm 23 is used to pick up the pressure plate 2b of the combination on the first transfer table 21 and the second transfer table 22 and deliver it to the pressure plate recycling bin H1. The first robotic arm 23 is used to deliver the waste material after the whole board circuit board 2c is cut to the waste material recycling bin H2. The first robotic arm 23 is also used to put the empty carrier 2a on the first transfer table 21 and the second transfer table 22 into the carrier recycling bin.

[0083] In some embodiments, the pressure plate recycling bin H1 and the waste recycling bin H2 are both located on the same side of the transfer device 20, and the carrier recycling bin is located on the other side of the transfer device 20. This reasonable arrangement of the positions of the various devices in the circuit board production system 1 facilitates the docking of the carrier recycling bin with other workstations.

[0084] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the first robotic arm 23 is equipped with a scanning unit 231, which is used to identify the position of waste on the first transfer table 21 and the second transfer table 22.

[0085] In other words, after the circuit board 2c on the first transfer platform 21 is adsorbed by the first adsorption component, it moves from the second position to the carrier recycling station. The first robotic arm 23 puts the empty carrier 2a on the first transfer platform 21 into the carrier recycling bin. The carrier recycling station is located between the first position and the second position.

[0086] In some embodiments, the first robotic arm 23 includes a fixed plate, a second suction cup assembly 232, a third suction cup assembly 233, a fourth suction cup assembly 234, a fourth drive unit 235, and a fifth drive unit 236. The second suction cup assembly 232 and the third suction cup assembly 233 are both disposed on the fixed plate. The second suction cup assembly 232 is used to adsorb the pressure plate 2b and the carrier 2a, and the third suction cup assembly 233 is used to adsorb waste. The third suction cup assembly 233 is located outside the second suction cup assembly 232. The fourth drive unit 235 is drivenly connected to the fourth suction cup assembly 234 to drive the fourth suction cup assembly 234 to move along the Y-axis. The fourth suction cup assembly 234 includes a plurality of fourth suction nozzles arranged side by side. The fourth suction nozzles are used to adsorb a single circuit board 2c. The fifth drive unit 236 includes a plurality of sub-drive units. Each sub-drive unit is drivenly connected to a corresponding fourth suction nozzle to drive the corresponding fourth suction nozzle to move along the Y-axis.

[0087] According to the circuit board production system 1 of the present invention, the fourth drive unit 235 can drive the fourth suction cup assembly 234 to move down by a large displacement. Multiple fourth suction nozzles can be individually controlled by multiple sub-drive units, so that different fourth suction nozzles can generate height differences. The fourth suction nozzles are driven to move down further according to the needs of the gripping task, so as to get closer to the circuit board 2c for adsorption, thereby achieving precise control of the movement displacement of the fourth suction nozzles, thereby shortening the operation time of the first robot arm 23 as much as possible.

[0088] The second suction cup assembly 232 is used to adsorb the pressure plate 2b and the carrier 2a, and the third suction cup assembly 233 is used to adsorb the waste. The weight of the pressure plate 2b and the carrier 2a is greater than the weight of the waste. Therefore, the second suction cup assembly 232 and the third suction cup assembly 233 need to be set at the same time to apply different suction strengths to match the weight of the object being sucked. This requires reasonable arrangement of the positions of the second suction cup assembly 232 and the third suction cup assembly 233. Since the waste is mainly the edge of the waste plate, the third suction cup assembly 233 is set on the outside of the second suction cup assembly 232, so that the third suction cup assembly 233 is located on the side of the second suction cup assembly 232 closer to the edge of the fixed plate.

[0089] like Figures 10-12 As shown, the circuit board production system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention further includes a flipping table 60 and a rotating mechanism 70. The flipping table 60 includes a rotatable rotating platform 61 and a driving member 63. The driving member 63 is used to drive the rotating platform 61 to rotate. The rotating platform 61 is provided with a first suction cup assembly 62, which includes a plurality of arrayed first suction nozzles. When the first transfer table 21 is in the second position, the rotating platform 61 drives the first suction cup assembly 62 to rotate to pick up the arrayed circuit boards 2c on the first transfer table 21. The second robotic arm 40 is used to transfer the circuit boards 2c on the flipping table 60 to the rotating mechanism 70. The rotating mechanism 70 is used to change the orientation of the circuit boards 2c to adapt to the orientation of the acupoints in the tray 51.

[0090] like Figure 10 As shown, the tilting table 60 includes a rotatable rotating platform 61 and a drive member 63, which drives the rotating platform 61 to rotate.

[0091] like Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the rotating platform 61 is provided with a first suction cup assembly 62, which includes multiple arrays of first suction nozzles. When the first transfer table 21 is in the second position, the rotating platform 61 drives the first suction cup assembly 62 to rotate to pick up the array of circuit boards 2c on the first transfer table 21.

[0092] The second robotic arm 40 is used to transfer the circuit board 2c on the flip table 60 to the rotating mechanism 70. The rotating mechanism 70 is used to change the orientation of the circuit board 2c to adapt to the orientation of the acupoint in the tray 51. The second robotic arm 40 is also used to transfer the circuit board 2c with the changed orientation on the rotating mechanism 70 to the tray conveying device 50.

[0093] In detail, the first suction cup assembly 62 picks up all the circuit boards 2c from the carrier 2a on the first transfer table 21, separating the carrier 2a from the circuit boards 2c. The second robotic arm 40 then picks up the circuit boards 2c from the flipping table 60, transferring all the circuit boards 2c to the rotating mechanism 70. The circuit boards 2c are placed on each rotating base 75 of the rotating mechanism 70. By controlling the rotating base 75 to rotate at different angles, all the circuit boards 2c are aligned in the same direction, eliminating the need to adjust individual circuit boards 2c, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0094] In some embodiments, the drive unit 63 includes a tilting cylinder, the rotating platform 61 is rotatable between a seventh position and an eighth position, when the rotating platform 61 is in the seventh position, the first transfer table 21 is in the second position and the rotating platform 61 is above the first transfer table 21, when the rotating platform 61 is in the eighth position, the second robot arm 40 is above the rotating platform 61, and the included angle formed when the rotating platform 61 rotates from the seventh position to the eighth position is 180°.

[0095] Specifically, the drive unit 63 drives the rotating platform 61 to rotate between the seventh position and the eighth position. When the rotating platform 61 is in the seventh position, the first transfer table 21 is in the second position. The rotating platform 61 drives the first suction cup assembly 62 to rotate to pick up the circuit boards 2c arrayed on the first transfer table 21. When the rotating platform 61 is in the eighth position, the second robot arm 40 grabs the circuit board 2c on the rotating platform 61 and transfers it to the rotating mechanism 70. This setting simplifies the structural setup for transferring the circuit board 2c from the first transfer table 21 to the rotating mechanism 70, improves efficiency, and ensures cycle time.

[0096] When the first transfer stage 21 is in the second position, the first drive unit 214 can drive the first receiving stage 212 to move along the Y-axis direction to accommodate the distance between the rotating platform 61 and the first receiving stage 212 in the Y-axis direction.

[0097] like Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments, the rotating mechanism 70 includes a frame 71, a follower block 72, a plurality of linkage assemblies 73, a drive unit, and a plurality of rotating bases 75.

[0098] Specifically, the frame 71 includes a top plate with a through hole; a follower block 72 is disposed on the top cover of the frame 71 and has a groove; the linkage assembly 73 includes a linkage shaft, a linkage arm, and a roller, one end of the linkage shaft rotatably passes through the through hole of the frame 71, the other end of the linkage arm is fixedly connected to the linkage shaft, the linkage arm is also hinged to the roller, and the roller is movably disposed in the groove; a drive unit is disposed on the frame 71, and the drive unit can controllably drive the follower block 72 to move, thereby causing the roller to roll along the groove, which in turn causes the linkage shaft to rotate; rotating bases 75 are respectively connected to each linkage shaft, wherein multiple linkage assemblies 73 are spaced apart in the groove, and multiple rotating bases 75 rotate synchronously with the linkage shaft. The rotating bases 75 are used to load products, thereby driving several products to rotate simultaneously, thereby improving production efficiency, meeting mass production needs, and reducing labor costs.

[0099] The rotating base 75 is provided with a receiving groove. The rotating base 75 is cylindrical, and the receiving groove is located at one end of the rotating base 75. The cross-section of the receiving groove is circular. The circuit board 2c is in the shape of a disc, and the outer contour diameter of the circuit board 2c is approximately the same as the inner contour diameter of the receiving groove within the error range.

[0100] In some embodiments, the conveying device 30 includes a transfer component 33, which is movable between a fifth position and a sixth position. When the transfer component 33 is in the fifth position and the first transfer table 21 is in the first position, the transfer component 33 is adjacent to the first transfer table 21. When the transfer component 33 is in the sixth position, it is adjacent to the second transfer table 22.

[0101] According to embodiments of the present invention, such as a screening and feeding device, Figure 16 As shown, it also includes a slide rail 34, and a transfer component 33 is movably disposed on the slide rail 34. The transfer component 33 includes a base, a drive member 63 disposed on the base, and a pulley assembly 332 disposed opposite to each other on the base. The transfer component 33 also includes a first sensor 334 and a second sensor 336. The first sensor 334 and the second sensor 336 are respectively disposed at both ends of the pulley assembly 332, and the first sensor 334 and the second sensor 336 are both disposed between the two pulley assemblies 332. The drive member 63 is connected to the base for transmission to drive the base to move.

[0102] The first sensor 334 is located at the end of the transfer assembly 33 furthest from the transport track (first transport track 24 and second transport track 26), and the second sensor 336 is located at the end of the transfer assembly 33 closest to the transport track (first transfer platform 21 and second transfer platform 22). The first sensor 334 is used to sense the assembly moving onto the transport track, thereby controlling the pulley assembly 332 to start running so that the assembly moves toward the transfer platform (first transfer platform 21 and second transfer platform 22). The second sensor 336 is used to sense the assembly leaving the transfer assembly 33, thereby controlling the transfer assembly 33 to stop running. This adaptively controls the start and stop of the transfer assembly 33, saving energy and extending the service life of the transfer assembly 33.

[0103] One pulley assembly 332 supports one side of the assembly, and another pulley assembly 332 supports the other side of the assembly. The first sensor 334 and the second sensor 336 are located between the two pulley assemblies 332, which enables more accurate sensing of the assembly.

[0104] It should be noted that the terms "first position", "second position", "fifth position" and "sixth position" are defined only to illustrate the relative positional relationship between the first transfer platform 21 and the conveying equipment 30.

[0105] In some embodiments, the circuit board production system 1 further includes a slide rail 34, and a transfer component 33 is movably disposed on the slide rail 34. The transfer component 33 includes a pulley assembly 332 disposed opposite to each other. The transfer component 33 also includes a first sensor 334 and a second sensor 336. The first sensor 334 and the second sensor 336 are respectively disposed at both ends of the pulley assembly 332, and both the first sensor 334 and the second sensor 336 are disposed between the two pulley assemblies 332. The pulley assembly 332 includes a circular belt and pulleys. The first sensor 334 is located at the end of the transfer assembly 33 closest to the separating device 10, and the second sensor 336 is located at the end of the transfer assembly 33 furthest from the separating device 10. The first sensor 334 is used to sense the assembly moving out of the separating device 10 and onto the transfer assembly 33, thereby controlling the pulley group 332 to start running so that the assembly moves toward the transfer device 20. The second sensor 336 is used to sense the assembly leaving the transfer assembly 33, thereby controlling the transfer assembly 33 to stop running. This adaptively controls the start and stop of the transfer assembly 33, saving energy and extending the service life of the transfer assembly 33.

[0106] One pulley assembly 332 supports one side of the assembly, and another pulley assembly 332 supports the other side of the assembly. The first sensor 334 and the second sensor 336 are located between the two pulley assemblies 332, which enables more accurate sensing of the assembly.

[0107] In addition, the pulley assembly 332 includes a circular belt and pulleys, which can improve the stability of the pulley assembly 332.

[0108] like Figure 17 As shown, a circuit board manufacturing method according to an embodiment of the present invention, used to control the above-described circuit board manufacturing system, includes:

[0109] S1: The control board splitting equipment will scan the whole board circuit board to identify good products and bad products, split the good products and the whole board to form waste board edges and good products, and clamp the split whole board circuit board between the carrier and the pressure plate to form an assembly and remove it.

[0110] S2: Control the conveying equipment to transfer the assembly onto the first transfer component and the second transfer component;

[0111] S3: Control the first robotic arm to transfer the good circuit board on the second transfer component to the corresponding position on the first transfer component;

[0112] S4: Control the second robotic arm to transfer the entire tray of good circuit boards in the first transfer assembly to the material tray conveying device;

[0113] S5: Control the tray conveyor to transfer the circuit boards arranged as required in the tray to the next workstation.

[0114] Specifically, the control panel 10 scans the entire board of circuit boards 2c to identify good and bad products, retains the bad products without cutting them, and cuts the good circuit boards 2c into individual pieces. The assembly is then transferred from the panel 10 to the first transfer assembly and the second transfer assembly via the conveying device 30. The control panel 23 removes the waste board edges from the assembly in the first and second transfer assemblies. Since the bad products remain connected to the waste board edges, the bad products are removed from the carrier 2a at the same time as the waste board edges are removed. The carrier 2a forms a vacancy position corresponding to the bad products. The first robot 23 replenishes the good circuit boards 2c in the second transfer assembly to the corresponding vacancy position in the carrier 2a in the first transfer assembly. The second robot 40 transfers the entire tray of good circuit boards 2c in the first transfer assembly to the tray conveying device 50. The tray conveying device 50 transfers the circuit boards 2c arranged as required in the tray 51 to the next workstation.

[0115] According to the circuit board production method of the present invention, the material tray conveying device 50 is directly connected to the production line to form an assembly line, ensuring that all circuit boards 2c output by the material tray conveying device 50 are good quality circuit boards 2c. At the same time, they are arranged according to demand, realizing unmanned operation. The overall layout is reasonable and the structure is compact, which improves production efficiency and product yield, reduces production and supply costs, and reduces labor costs in the factory.
