Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of MLCC stacking production, and in particular is a high-precision fine-adjustment mechanism for MLCC stacking alignment. Background Art
[0002] MLCC is the abbreviation of chip multilayer ceramic capacitor. It is composed of ceramic dielectric diaphragms with printed electrodes (inner electrodes) stacked in a staggered manner, that is, in a stacked manner. After a one-time high-temperature sintering, a ceramic chip is formed. A metal layer (outer electrode) is then sealed at both ends of the chip to form a structure similar to a monolithic stone, so it is also called a monolithic capacitor.
[0003] Traditional stacking alignment mechanisms typically consist of two components: a ball screw drives the suction head for alignment compensation in the X direction, while a servo motor drives the mold for adjustment in the Y and θ directions. The Y direction is driven by a ball screw, while the θ direction is driven by a worm gear or rotating gear. Because the position parameters determined by CCD vision are decomposed between the suction head and the mold, the X-direction suction head is heavy and has a long oscillation period during high-speed displacement, resulting in low overall efficiency. In traditional stacking alignment, whether the θ axis uses a worm gear or rotating gear, the inherent backlash of the θ axis makes it difficult to eliminate the gaps generated by the forward and reverse rotation of the mold due to the inherent backlash. This affects the alignment accuracy during stacking, and thus the quality of the capacitors, necessitating improvements. Summary of the Invention

[0035] The working principle and use process of the present invention:
[0036] Adjustment in the X direction: The X-axis servo motor 902 starts to drive the X-axis screw assembly 901 to work, and the guide assembly 10 is limited and connected through a set of diagonal cross roller bearings 4, thereby driving the adsorption and rotation upper top plate 5 and the matching structure above the adsorption and rotation upper top plate 5 to move;
[0037] Adjustment in the Y direction: The Y-direction adjustment servo motor 202 is started to drive the Y-direction adjustment screw assembly 201 to work, and the guide assembly 10 is limited and connected through another set of diagonal cross roller bearings 4, thereby driving the adsorption and rotation upper top plate 5 and the matching structure above the adsorption and rotation upper top plate 5 to move;
[0038] Adjustment in the Z direction: The Z-axis servo motor 604 starts to drive the Z-direction guide spline shaft 601 to move, and the Z-axis screw assembly 606 performs transmission to achieve Z-direction adjustment. At the same time, the fixed plate 602 on the Z-direction spline shaft limits the overall structure, and the Z-direction auxiliary guide spline shaft 603 and the Z-axis auxiliary guide spline shaft 605 guide when the adsorption assembly 13 moves;
[0039] When moving in the X and Y directions, the sensor sheet 3 detects the X and Y directions reaching the limit position and the origin position, controls the distance, and sends a signal to the X-axis servo motor 902, the Y-axis adjustment servo motor 202, and the Z-axis servo motor 604 when they are working. The sensor 8 senses the motor's position signal. After it is in place, the vent pipe joint 7 vacuums the adsorption plate 133 to adsorb the diaphragm. The air pressure sensor 12 detects the vacuum pressure. After adsorption, the Y-axis adjustment mechanism 2, the X-axis adjustment mechanism 9, and the Z-axis adjustment mechanism 6 work to move the diaphragm. Then the vent pipe joint 7 vents the adsorption plate 133 to cancel the adsorption of the diaphragm.
