[0022] like Figures 1 to 23 As shown, the micro device assembly system of this embodiment includes: a base 1000, and a copper strip cutting and feeding mechanism 2000, a substrate loading mechanism 3000, a one-time bending mechanism 4000, a film cutting and feeding mechanism 5000, an assembly mechanism 6000 and a manipulator 7000, all of which are arranged on the base 1000; a terminal feeding position, a substrate feeding position, a one-time bending position and an assembly position are distributed on the base 1000; the copper strip cutting and feeding mechanism 2000 is used to cut the terminals from the material strip and feed the terminals to the terminal feeding position; the substrate loading mechanism 3000 is used to feed the substrate to the substrate feeding position; the one-time bending machine The structure 4000 is set at the primary bending position and is used to bend the terminal upward; the assembly mechanism 6000 is set at the assembly position, and the assembly mechanism 6000 includes: a positioning carrier 6100, a pressing component 6200, a bending knife 6300, an indexing mechanism 6400 that drives the positioning carrier 6100 to intermittently rotate and index around the vertical axis, a first driving mechanism 6500 that drives the bending knife 6300 to reciprocate vertically, and a second driving mechanism 6600 that drives the first driving mechanism 6500 to reciprocate along the radial direction of the positioning carrier 6100; the top surface of the positioning carrier 6100 is provided with a positioning mechanism that cooperates with the outer circle of the base. The hole 6101 is provided with a plurality of radially penetrating terminal avoidance holes 6102 on the wall of the positioning hole 6101. The terminal avoidance holes 6102 are used to avoid the bending knife 6300 and the terminal wrapped outside the base. The pressing component 6200 has a first position and a second position, and is connected to a third driving mechanism 6700 that drives it to reciprocate between the first position and the second position. The pressing component 6200 includes: a sliding component 6201, a pressing block, a pressing rod, an elastic element 6206 arranged between the pressing block and the sliding component 6201, and a fourth driving mechanism 6200 that drives the sliding component 6201 to reciprocate vertically. 4. The fifth driving mechanism 6205 drives the pressure rod to reciprocate vertically. The pressing block is connected to the sliding component 6201 along the vertical sliding direction. The pressing block is provided with a through hole along the vertical direction for sliding cooperation with the pressure rod. The elastic element 6206 drives the pressing block to move downward. When the pressing component 6200 is in the second position, the pressing block and the pressure rod are both located directly above the positioning hole 6101; the film cutting and feeding mechanism 5000 is used to cut the film from the film strip and send the cut film to the positioning hole 6101; the robot 7000 is used to send the terminal to the primary bending position and send the base and the bent terminal to the positioning hole 6101.

[0023] The indexing mechanism 6400 can be implemented using existing servo motors, cam dividers, direct drive motors, etc.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the positioning hole 6101 is provided with a suction hole connected to a vacuum generator so that the terminal and substrate placed in the positioning hole 6101 can be vacuum-sucked to prevent the terminal and substrate from being distorted or even carried away by the robot 7000. The first drive mechanism 6500 drives the bending knife 6300 to move upward, performing a secondary bend on the terminal legs so that the terminal wraps around the substrate, that is, bending the terminal legs into a horizontal U-shape. The second drive mechanism 6600 then drives the first drive mechanism 6500 and the bending knife 6300 to move in the radial direction of the positioning carrier 6100 to correct the angle of the secondary bend.

[0025] The elastic element 6206 can be realized by using existing technologies such as cylindrical helical compression spring 4204. The elastic force of the elastic element 6206 is transmitted to the terminal in the positioning hole 6101 through the clamping block, thereby clamping the terminal before the secondary bending. The specific movement process is: after the manipulator 7000 places the terminal that has completed one bending into the positioning hole 6101, and then places the base into the positioning hole 6101, the third driving device drives the clamping component 6200 to move to the second position, and then the fourth driving component drives the sliding component 6201, the clamping block and the elastic element 6206 to move downward. After the clamping block contacts the base, the sliding component 6201 continues to move downward, so that the elastic force of the elastic element 6206 is transmitted. The pressure is transferred to the terminal in the positioning hole 6101 through the clamping block, and then the above-mentioned secondary bending action is performed. The fifth driving mechanism 6205 drives the pressure rod to move downward, and the angle of the primary bending is adjusted; then the fourth driving component drives the sliding component 6201, the clamping block and the elastic element 6206 to move upward. At the same time, the fifth driving mechanism 6205 drives the pressure rod to move upward, and then the film cutting and feeding mechanism 5000 cuts out the film, and sends the cut film to the positioning hole 6101, and makes the film stick to the upper surface of the leg after the secondary bending; then the dividing mechanism 6400 drives the positioning carrier 6100 to rotate a certain angle, and performs secondary bending on the next leg of the terminal, and so on.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the second drive mechanism 6600 is implemented using a servo motor ball screw structure, so that after the adjusted angle is fed back to the servo motor, the servo motor can correct the displacement of the bending knife 6300 along the radial direction of the positioning carrier 6100 with higher precision. On this basis, the second drive mechanism 6600 can be connected to a servo motor ball screw structure to drive the bending knife 6300 to move along the tangential direction of the positioning carrier 6100, ensuring that the bending knife 6300 is precisely aligned with the bent leg.

[0027] The substrate feeding mechanism 3000 can be realized by using a vibrating disc, a flexible feeder or other existing technologies.

[0028] The cutting feeding mechanism can be realized by using existing technologies, such as the center needle insertion mechanism in the Chinese utility model patent with the publication number CN208944622U and the name of a power interface assembly test equipment.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the cutting feeding mechanism comprises a cutting die 2100, a terminal feeding component 2200 and a tape feeding mechanism 2300 for feeding the tape to the cutting die 2100; the cutting die 2100 is used to cut terminals from the tape and feed the terminals to the position directly below the cutting die 2100; the terminal feeding component 2200 is connected with a tenth driving mechanism 2400 for driving the terminal feeding component 2200 to reciprocate between the position directly below the cutting die 2100 and a terminal feeding position; the terminal feeding component 2200 comprises a suction head 2201, the top surface of the suction head 2201 is provided with a suction hole 22011, and the suction hole 22011 is connected with a vacuum generator; when the terminal feeding component 2200 is located at the fifth position, the suction head 2201 is located directly below the terminal in the cutting die 2100.

[0030] The tape feeding mechanism 2300 can be realized by using existing roller feeding machines for stamping, pneumatic feeding machines for stamping or other similar structures, such as the Chinese invention patent with the publication number CN102801074A and the name of a terminal feeding device; for example, the terminal tray rack in the terminal feeding and cutting mechanism and the tape conveying unit arranged in connection with the terminal tray rack in the Chinese utility model patent with the publication number CN210156703U; and the like.

[0031] The terminal is cut by the cutting die 2100, and the precision is higher. The cutting die 2100 can be realized by adopting a structure similar to that of the existing cutting die 2100. In a preferred embodiment, the cutting die 2100 comprises a cutting upper die 2110 and a cutting lower die 2120 arranged in sequence from top to bottom; the cutting lower die 2120 is provided with a material groove 2121 penetrating in the horizontal direction, the upper side wall of the material groove 2121 is respectively provided with a finished product knife hole 2122 and a waste knife hole 2123, the lower side wall of the material groove 2121 is respectively provided with a finished product blanking hole 2124 and a waste blanking hole, the finished product knife hole 2122, the waste knife hole 2123, the finished product blanking hole 2124 and the waste blanking hole all penetrate in the vertical direction, and the finished product knife hole 2122 is opposite to the finished product blanking hole 2124, and the waste knife hole 2123 is opposite to the waste blanking hole; the cutting upper die 2110 comprises an upper die seat 2111, a finished product cutting knife 2112, a waste cutting knife 2113, a material ejection spring 2114, a twelfth driving mechanism 2115 for driving the upper die seat 2111 to reciprocate in the vertical direction, and a material ejection block 2116; the upper ends of the finished product cutting knife 2112 and the waste cutting knife 2113 are connected to the upper die seat 2111, and the lower ends of the finished product cutting knife 2112 and the waste cutting knife 2113 are respectively in sliding fit with the finished product knife hole 2122 and the waste knife hole 2123; the material ejection block 2116 is in the shape of a step with the upper part larger than the lower part, and the small end of the material ejection block 2116 extends downward to the material groove 2121; the two ends of the material ejection spring 2114 are respectively abutted to the upper end of the material ejection block 2116 and the upper die seat 2111.

[0032] The finished product knife hole 2122 and the finished product blanking hole 2124 are formed on one part, which is more conducive to ensuring the precision of the finished product cutting knife 2112 and the finished product blanking hole 2124, and is more suitable for cutting thin-walled terminals. The material belt after cutting the terminals is cut into small sections by the waste blanking hole and the waste cutting knife 2113, which is more conducive to recycling waste materials.

[0033] The material ejection block 2116 is in sliding fit with the cutting lower die 2120, the elastic force of the material ejection spring 2114 is transmitted to the material belt through the material ejection block 2116, so that the material belt is pressed tightly before the finished product cutting knife 2112 and the waste cutting knife 2113 cut the terminals and waste materials respectively, thereby ensuring cutting and reducing deformation and improving precision; at the same time, the material belt sticks to the finished product cutting knife 2112 and the waste cutting knife 2113 when the finished product cutting knife 2112 and the waste cutting knife 2113 move upward. The material ejection block 2116 is in the shape of a step with the upper part larger than the lower part, and the step of the material ejection block 2116 can limit the material ejection block 2116. On the one hand, it avoids the material ejection block 2116 from falling and obstructing the movement of the material belt in the material groove 2121; on the other hand, the distance between the step of the material ejection block 2116 and the bottom of the material ejection block 2116 can be limited to ensure that multiple material ejection blocks 2116 contact the material belt at the same time, thereby ensuring uniform pressing force.

[0034] Based on the preferred embodiment of the cutting die 2100 described above, the terminal feeding component 2200 further comprises an eleventh driving mechanism 2500 for driving the suction head 2201 to move vertically reciprocally, the eleventh driving mechanism 2500 is used to drive the suction head 2201 to move upwardly into the finished product dropping hole 2124, and make the suction head 2201 cooperate with the finished product cutting knife 2112 to deliver the cut terminals to the position right below the cutting die 2100.
