Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of back-end frame assembly technology for semiconductor server products, and more particularly to a processor frame assembly device. Background Technology
[0002] Server processors are the components used in servers. Server processors are very large, for example, 75.4 x 58.5 cm, and quite heavy. To avoid damage to the processor's appearance during transportation and installation problems for end users, the processor is usually mounted on a processor mounting frame. This way, subsequent operations will not directly contact the processor itself, thus protecting it from damage during transportation and the risk of final installation problems.
[0003] To facilitate the mounting of processors onto processor frames, existing processor frame mounting equipment mainly includes a tray conveyor for transporting trays containing processors, a frame mounting compartment for storing and transporting frames, a frame pressing device for mounting processors onto the frames, a first platform located at the frame mounting compartment for carrying frames output from the compartment, a second platform for carrying frames, a third platform that cooperates with the frame pressing device to press processors, a frame gripper head for transporting frames from the first platform to the second platform, a robotic arm for transporting processors from trays on the tray conveyor to the third platform, and a product conveyor. All components, including the tray conveyor, product conveyor, frame mounting compartment, frame pressing device, first platform, second platform, third platform, frame gripper head, and robotic arm, are mounted on the machine bed platform.
[0004] When the processor frame mounting device is working, the drive slider moves the frame gripping head and the frame pressing device simultaneously in the direction of the frame mounting chamber. The frame gripping head grips the frame placed on the first platform, and the frame pressing device clamps the frame located on the second platform. At the same time, the robot arm transports the processor on the tray of the tray conveyor to the third platform. Then the drive slider returns to its original position, the frame gripping head places the gripped frame on the second platform, and the frame pressing device bends the clamped frame. The third platform transports the processor on it to the bent frame, and then the frame pressing device restores the bent frame to its original shape. The processor is installed on the frame, and the frame with the processor installed is transported by the robot arm to the product conveyor.
[0005] The aforementioned processor frame installation equipment only requires the operator to place the processor on the corresponding carrier plate and the frame in the frame installation compartment, which automatically installs the processor onto the frame. Operation is simple and highly efficient. However, when different models of processors and frames need to be installed using the same equipment, the frame installation compartment, frame pressing device, first platform, second platform, third platform, and corresponding slider drive components must be removed from the bed platform before installing the parts required for the corresponding frame model. This makes it difficult for the processor frame installation equipment to support different models of server products. Summary of the Invention

The sliding bracket drive can drive the sliding bracket to slide so that the frame gripping head can transport the frame on the first platform to the second platform, and can move the frame pressing device to the third platform to press the processor and the frame. The first robot can transport the processor on the tray of the processor tray conveyor to the third platform, and the second robot can transport the pressed product to the tray of the product tray conveyor.

The frame mounting chamber includes a frame storage chamber and a frame conveying device. The frame storage chamber stores multiple frames, and the frame conveying device can convey the frames in the frame storage chamber to the first platform located at the discharge port of the frame mounting chamber. The sliding bracket drive can drive the sliding bracket to slide so that the frame gripping head can convey the frame located on the first platform at the second position to the second platform.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the frame storage bin is vertically arranged, and the frame conveying device includes a baffle plate, a baffle plate drive for driving the baffle plate to extend and retract horizontally, a push rod, and a push rod drive for driving the push rod to extend and retract vertically. When the baffle plate can extend, the baffle plate is located at the discharge port below the frame storage bin to prevent the frames inside the frame storage bin from falling. When the push rod extends, it can lift the frames at the discharge port of the frame storage bin. The first platform is provided with a through hole for the push rod to pass through.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the sliding bracket includes a bracket body, a first slide rail, and a first slider. The first slide rail is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate, and the first slider is slidably mounted on the first slide rail. The bracket body is fixedly connected to the first slider, and the frame gripping head and the frame pressing device are fixedly mounted on the bracket body.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the frame gripping head includes a first suction cup and a first suction cup driver, the first suction cup driver being fixedly mounted on the bracket body, and the first suction cup driver being capable of driving the first suction cup to move up and down.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, positioning grooves for accommodating the edges of the frame are provided on the opposing surfaces of the first frame clamp and the second frame clamp.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment, an electrical interface is also fixedly mounted on the mounting plate.
[0017] The difference between this invention and existing technologies lies in the fact that the processor frame assembly equipment provided by this invention uses an assembly module.

Through the interaction of the assembly module with the processor tray conveyor, product tray conveyor, first robotic arm, and second robotic arm, the assembly of the processor and frame can be achieved. When the processor frame assembly equipment needs to assemble processors and frames for different models of server products, only the assembly module needs to be replaced, along with the corresponding trays on the processor tray conveyor and product tray conveyor. The operation is simple and convenient. Therefore, the processor frame assembly equipment provided by this invention can effectively support the assembly of processors and frames for different models of server products.

[0028] In the description of this application, it should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0029] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0030] The processor framework assembly device provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and application scenarios.
[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the processor frame assembly equipment provided by the present invention includes a bed platform 2, a processor tray conveying device (not shown in the figure), a product tray conveying device 3, a first robot arm (not shown in the figure), a second robot arm (not shown in the figure), and an assembly module. The processor tray conveying device, the product tray conveying device 3, the first robot arm, and the second robot arm are all mounted on the bed platform 2. The bed platform 2, the processor tray conveying device, the product tray conveying device 3, the first robot arm, the second robot arm, and the assembly module are all installed inside a housing 1, wherein the processor tray conveying device and the product tray conveying device 3 partially protrude outside the housing 1 to facilitate the loading and unloading of the processor tray and the product tray.
[0032] The processor tray conveying device may include a processor tray bracket and a processor tray bracket drive. The processor tray bracket is slidably mounted on the bed platform 2 via a track slider. The processor tray bracket drive can drive the processor tray bracket to slide left and right, thereby positioning the processor tray bracket at the processor tray placement station, gripping station, and empty tray station. The processor tray bracket drive can employ various existing commonly used linear motion output devices, such as motor screw and nut assemblies. When the processor tray bracket is at the placement station, the operator can place the tray containing the processor on the processor tray bracket. Then, the processor tray bracket moves to the gripping station, where the first robotic arm grips the processor on the processor tray. When the processor tray bracket moves to the empty tray station, the operator can remove the empty tray.
[0033] The product tray conveying device 3 may include a product tray bracket (not shown in the figure) and a product tray bracket drive (not shown in the figure). The product tray bracket is slidably mounted on the bed platform 2 via a track slider (not shown in the figure). The product tray bracket drive can drive the product tray bracket to slide left and right, thereby positioning the product tray bracket at the empty tray station, the placement station, and the tray retrieval station. The product tray bracket drive can be any existing commonly used linear motion output device, such as a motor screw nut assembly. When the product tray bracket is at the empty tray station, the operator can place the tray for holding the assembled processor frame product on the product tray bracket. Then, the product tray bracket moves to the placement station, where a second robotic arm places the gripped and pressed product onto the product tray at the placement station. When the product tray bracket moves to the tray retrieval station, the operator can remove the tray containing the product.
[0034] refer to Figures 3-5 As shown, the assembly module includes a mounting plate 4, a frame mounting compartment 5, a first platform 6, a first platform drive (not shown in the figure), a second platform 7, a third platform 8, a sliding bracket 9, a sliding bracket drive (not shown in the figure), a frame gripping head 10, and a frame pressing device 11. Figure 2 As shown, the mounting plate 4 is detachably mounted on the bed platform 2 using common connecting parts such as bolts and nuts.
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, the frame mounting compartment 5, the first platform 6, the second platform 7, and the third platform 8 are all mounted on the mounting plate 4. The frame gripping head 10 and the frame pressing device 11 are mounted on the sliding bracket 9, which is slidably mounted on the mounting plate 4. (Reference) Figures 3-5 As shown, the sliding bracket 9 preferably includes a bracket body 91, a first slide rail (not shown in the figure), and a first slider (not shown in the figure). The first slide rail is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 4, the first slider is slidably mounted on the first slide rail, the bracket body 91 is fixedly connected to the first slider, and the frame gripping head 10 and the frame pressing device 11 are fixedly mounted on the bracket body 91. The sliding bracket drive can be any existing commonly used linear motion output device, preferably a motor screw nut assembly.
[0036] refer to Figure 3 As shown, the sliding bracket drive can drive the sliding bracket 9 to slide so that the frame gripper head 10 can transport the frame located on the first platform 6 to the second platform 7, and can enable the frame pressing device 11 to move the frame on the second platform 7 to the third platform 8 to press the processor and the frame.
[0037] The first robotic arm can transport the processor from the tray of the processor carrier conveyor to the third platform 8, and the second robotic arm can transport the pressed product to the tray of the product carrier conveyor. The first and second robotic arms can be any existing robotic arm. To facilitate transportation and avoid damage to the processor, both the first and second robotic arms use suction cups to achieve gripping operations using negative pressure.
[0038] The processor frame assembly equipment provided in the above embodiments mounts the frame mounting compartment 5, the first platform 6, the first platform drive, the second platform 7, the third platform 8, the sliding bracket 9, the sliding bracket drive, the frame gripper head 10, and the frame pressing device 11 onto the mounting plate 4. Then, the assembly module is mounted as a whole onto the bed platform 2 via the mounting plate 4. Simultaneously, the processor tray conveying device and the first robotic arm for transporting the processor, as well as the second robotic arm and the product tray conveying device for transporting the assembled product, are mounted on the bed platform 2. Through the cooperation of the assembly module with the processor tray conveying device, the product tray conveying device, the first robotic arm, and the second robotic arm, the assembly of the processor and the frame can be achieved. When the processor frame assembly equipment needs to be used to assemble processors and frames for different models of server products, only the assembly module needs to be replaced as a whole, and the corresponding trays on the processor tray conveying device and the product tray conveying device need to be replaced. The operation is simple and convenient.
[0039] When the aforementioned processor frame assembly equipment is in use, the frame mounting chamber 5 transports the frame placed inside to the first platform 6. The sliding bracket drive drives the sliding bracket 9 to move the frame gripping head 10 above the first platform 6, transporting the frame thereto to the second platform 7. Then, the frame mounting chamber 5 transports the frame inside back to the first platform 6. The sliding bracket drive drives the sliding bracket 9 to move to the left end, so that the frame gripping head 10 and the frame pressing device 11 are respectively above the first platform 6 and the second platform 7. The frame gripping head 10 grips the frame on the first platform 6, and the frame pressing device 11 clamps the frame on the second platform 7. At the same time, the first robotic arm moves the processor tray. The processor on the carrier tray of the conveying device is conveyed to the third carrier platform 8. Then, the sliding bracket drive drives the sliding bracket 9 to move to the right end. The frame gripping head 10 places the gripped frame on the second carrier platform 7. The frame pressing device 11 bends the gripped frame, so that the processor on the third carrier platform 8 is located in the mounting groove (snap position) of the frame. Then, the frame pressing device 11 restores the gripped frame to its original shape, thereby installing the processor on the frame. The frame with the processor installed is placed on the third carrier platform 8. Then, the sliding bracket drive drives the sliding bracket 9 to move to the left end again, repeating the gripping of the frame. At the same time, the second robot arm conveys the pressed product to the carrier tray of the product carrier conveying device.
[0040] In this invention, the mounting plate 4 is preferably a rectangular flat plate. In this invention, the frame mounting compartment 5 can employ various structures for placing the frame on the first platform 6. For example, the frame mounting compartment 5 may include an upward-opening compartment and a gripping robot, which grips the frame inside the compartment using negative pressure and then places it on the first platform 6.
[0041] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the frame output from the frame mounting chamber 5 is achieved by sliding the first platform 6. Specifically, the first platform 6 is slidably mounted on the mounting plate 4. The first platform 6 can be mounted on the mounting plate 4 via a track slider mechanism. A first platform drive (not shown in the figure) is mounted on the mounting plate 4, and the first platform drive can drive the first platform 6 to slide between a first position and a second position. The first platform drive can be any existing commonly used linear motion output device, such as a motor screw nut assembly. The first position is located directly below the discharge port of the frame mounting chamber 5, and the second position is located below and outside the discharge port of the frame mounting chamber 5 (i.e.,...). Figure 3 The position of the first platform 6 shown in the diagram. When the first platform 6 is in the second position, the distance between the first platform 6 and the second platform 7 is equal to the distance between the third platform 8 and the second platform 7. Preferably, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the first platform 6, the second platform 7, and the third platform 8 are all located in the sliding direction of the first platform 6. The frame mounting chamber 5 includes a frame storage chamber (not shown in the figure) and a frame conveying device (not shown in the figure). The frame storage chamber stores multiple frames, and the frame conveying device can convey the frames in the frame storage chamber to the first platform 6 located at the discharge port of the frame mounting chamber 5. The sliding bracket drive can drive the sliding bracket 9 to slide so that the frame gripping head 10 can convey the frame located on the first platform 6 at the second position to the second platform 7.
[0042] The frame storage bin is vertically arranged. The frame conveying device (not shown in the figure) includes a baffle plate, a baffle plate drive for horizontally extending and retracting the baffle plate, a push rod, and a push rod drive for vertically extending and retracting the push rod. When the baffle plate can extend, it is located at the discharge port below the frame storage bin to prevent the frames inside the storage bin from falling. When the push rod extends, it can lift the frames at the discharge port of the frame storage bin. The first platform is provided with a through hole for the push rod to pass through. Both the baffle plate drive and the push rod drive can be commonly used linear motion output devices such as linear motors or motor screw-nut assemblies.
[0043] In the above embodiment, when the frame mounting chamber 5 outputs a frame, the first platform drive firstly drives the first platform 6 to move directly below the discharge port of the frame mounting chamber 5, i.e., the first platform 6 is moved to the first position. At this time, the frame at the lower opening of the frame storage chamber is blocked by the extended baffle and cannot fall. Then, the push rod drive drives the push rod to pass through the through hole on the first platform 6 and extend upward to block the bottom frame of the frame storage chamber. Then, the baffle drive is controlled to retract the baffle. Then, the push rod drive drives the push rod to move downward. Since there are gaps between the frames stacked in the frame storage chamber, when the stacked frames in the frame storage chamber move downward to the gap between the bottom frame and the frame above it aligns with the baffle, the baffle extends and blocks the other frames in the frame storage chamber from moving downward. As the push rod retracts downward, the frame on it falls onto the first platform 6, thereby realizing the output of the frame.
[0044] In this invention, the frame gripping head 10 is used to move the frame on the first platform 6 to the second platform 7, and various existing conveying devices can be used. Preferably, the frame gripping head 10 includes a first suction cup (not shown in the figure) and a first suction cup drive (not shown in the figure). The first suction cup drive is fixedly mounted on the support body 91, and the first suction cup drive can drive the first suction cup to move up and down. The first suction cup drive can be any existing commonly used device that outputs linear motion, such as a motor screw and nut assembly.
[0045] like Figure 5 As shown, the frame pressing device 11 includes a frame pressing body 111, a frame pressing body drive (not shown), a first frame clamping plate 112, a first frame clamping plate drive (not shown), a second frame clamping plate 113, a second frame clamping plate drive (not shown), a frame pressure plate 114, and a frame pressure plate drive (not shown). The frame pressing body drive is mounted on the support body 91 and can drive the frame pressing body 111 to move up and down. The frame pressing body 111 is used to mount the first frame clamping plate 112, the first frame clamping plate drive, the second frame clamping plate 113, the second frame clamping plate drive, the frame pressure plate 114, and the frame pressure plate drive. The frame pressing body 111 can be made of sheet metal or a frame structure. The frame pressing body drive can be any existing commonly used linear motion output device, such as a motor screw and nut assembly. The first frame clamping plate drive, the second frame clamping plate drive, and the frame pressure plate drive can also be various existing commonly used devices that output linear motion, such as cylinders, linear motors, etc.
[0046] The first frame clamping plate driver, the second frame clamping plate driver, and the frame pressure plate driver are all mounted on the frame pressing body 111. The first frame clamping plate driver and the second frame clamping plate driver can drive the first frame clamping plate 112 and the second frame clamping plate 113 to move towards each other to clamp the frame. The frame pressure plate driver can drive the frame pressure plate 114 to move downward to bend the frame clamped by the first frame clamping plate 112 and the second frame clamping plate 113.
[0047] When the frame needs to be clamped, the sliding bracket drive drives the sliding bracket 9 to move to the left end, and the frame pressing body drive drives the frame pressing body 111 to move downward until the first frame clamping plate 112 and the second frame clamping plate 113 are respectively located on both sides of the frame placed on the second platform 7. Then, the first frame clamping plate drive and the second frame clamping plate drive are controlled to drive the first frame clamping plate 112 and the second frame clamping plate 113 to move towards each other, thereby clamping the frame. Then, the frame pressing body drive is controlled to drive the frame pressing body 111 to move upward, and then the sliding bracket drive drives the sliding bracket 9 to move to the right end. Finally, the frame pressing plate drive... The component can drive the frame pressure plate 114 to move downward and press it against the middle of the frame clamped by the first frame clamp 112 and the second frame clamp 113, bending the frame. At the same time, the frame pressing body driving component drives the frame pressing body 111 to move downward, so that the processor located on the third platform 8 is in the mounting groove (snap position) of the bent frame. Then, the first frame clamp driving component and the second frame clamp driving component are controlled to drive the first frame clamp 112 and the second frame clamp 113 to move in opposite directions. At the same time, the frame pressing body 111 moves upward and releases the frame. At this time, the frame returns to its original shape and fixes the processor in the mounting groove (snap position) of the frame.
[0048] To prevent the frame from moving relative to the first frame clamping plate 112 and the second frame clamping plate 113 when the frame pressing body 111 presses down on the frame, preferably, positioning grooves (not shown in the figure) are provided on the opposing surfaces of the first frame clamping plate 112 and the second frame clamping plate 113 to accommodate the edge of the frame.
[0049] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an electrical interface (not shown in the figure) is also fixedly installed on the mounting plate 4. The electrical interface connects the power supply, signal, and source of each driving component on the assembly module, so that when the assembly module is replaced, the corresponding lines can be connected to the electrical interface to realize the operation and control of each driving component on the assembly module.
[0050] As can be seen from the above, the processor frame assembly equipment provided by the present invention adopts a modular design, placing the frame mounting compartment and the frame pressing device on the same fixed module. When it is necessary to adapt to different models of products or to the next generation of products, it is only necessary to replace the entire module to quickly realize the machine conversion.
[0051] The processor frame assembly equipment provided by the present invention also includes a vision system (not shown in the figure), which includes processor orientation detection and QR code recognition, defect detection of processor back capacitor, detection of the processor surface after frame assembly, defect detection of processor back capacitor and frame, and defect detection of processor substrate at right angle position.
[0052] The processor's orientation is determined using a "golden triangle" recognition system. If the similarity between the image captured by the camera and the template learned by the camera reaches 80%, the system considers the processor's orientation correct; otherwise, it's considered reversed. Capacitor defects are detected by comparing the processor's capacitors to a contrast ratio greater than 50. If the capacitor defect covers one-third of the capacitor area (greater than 0.5 x 0.5 mm), it indicates a missing capacitor. Excess capacitors are identified as redundant if the similarity to the standard template learned by the camera is less than 80%. Frame latch position detection involves calculating the distance between the latch position and the edge of the processor substrate in the captured image. If the distance is less than 0.2 mm, the latch position is considered normal; otherwise, it's abnormal. Defect detection in right-angle areas of the processor substrate is achieved by calculating the corresponding defect area when the contrast ratio is greater than 60. If the defect area is greater than 0.3 x 0.3 mm, the system identifies the corresponding processor as defective. The robotic arm then places the processor on a defective tray, and the operator performs a manual re-inspection.
[0053] The processor frame assembly equipment provided in the above embodiments can realize the automatic assembly of processor and frame. However, since the frame pressing device 11 requires a lot of time to bend the frame and assemble the processor, after the first robotic arm completes the delivery of the processor, it needs to wait for the processor frame to be pressed and assembled before the next processor can be delivered. The waiting time is relatively long, which results in wasted waiting time and reduced equipment efficiency.
[0054] Therefore, in a further preferred embodiment of the invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, there are two assembly modules, which are installed side by side on the bed platform 2. The first robot arm can sequentially transport the processor on the tray of the processor tray conveying device to the third platform of the two assembly modules. The second robot arm can sequentially transport the pressed products on the two assembly modules to the tray of the product tray conveying device.
[0055] In this embodiment, by setting up two assembly modules side by side, the waiting time of the first and second robotic arms is optimized, which can increase the equipment's productivity by about 30%.
[0056] In summary, the processor frame assembly equipment provided by this invention improves production efficiency through two assembly modules, including frame loading and frame installation design, breaking through the capacity bottleneck of the original equipment, increasing capacity by 30%, and reducing the frame loading and unloading time for operators in this process. By setting up the assembly modules, it can better support the assembly of processors and frames of different models and generations of server products. At the same time, the vision system not only detects substrate defects and frame defects caused by machine framing, but also adds the detection of missing and redundant capacitors generated in the front-end of the processor, as well as the inspection of the customer characters corresponding to the clamping pieces added to the processor. Problematic processors detected by the machine vision system can be placed in the defective product discharge area for manual inspection by the operator. At the same time, the QR code of each processor is interpreted, and the photo taken by the system is named according to the QR code, thereby realizing the traceability of each product.
[0057] The order of the above embodiments is for ease of description only and does not represent the superiority or inferiority of the implementation methods.
[0058] Finally, it should be noted that although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
