[0001] This invention relates to the field of automation equipment technology, and in particular to an automatic mouse feeding and detection device. [Background Technology]

[0002] A mouse is an external input device for computers. By operating the mouse buttons, cumbersome keyboard commands can be replaced, making computer operation simpler and faster. Therefore, before mice leave the factory, parameters such as mouse button sensitivity must be tested. The common testing method usually requires manual placement of the mouse into a testing machine. However, this manual loading method is inefficient, and if the mouse is not placed stably, it can easily cause the product to be scrapped. In addition, frequent contact between personnel and the testing machine can not only affect the testing accuracy of the machine, but also increase safety hazards.

[0003] In view of this, it is necessary to provide an automatic mouse feeding and detection device to solve the above problems. [Summary of the Invention]

[0032] The material handling device 3 is connected to the controller (not shown in the figure). The material handling device 3 is located on one side of the conveying device 2 and the testing machine 1. It is used to move the mouse to be tested 10 on the mouse placement fixture 21 into the testing machine 1 for testing, and to take out the mouse 10 that has been tested in the testing machine 1 and place it in the mouse placement area 23. The mouse placement area 23 is a conveyor belt. The mouse placement area 23 is divided into a good product placement area 230 and a defective product placement area 231. The material handling device 3 can be controlled by the controller (not shown in the figure) to place the tested mouse 10 into the corresponding placement area.

[0033] The material handling device 3 includes a mouse picking and placing mechanism 30 and a three-axis drive mechanism 31.

[0034] The mouse picking and placing mechanism 30 further includes a double-sided flexible gripper 300 and a rotary drive 301.

[0035] The double-sided flexible gripper 300 is used to pick up the mouse to be tested 10 on the mouse placement fixture 21 and place the picked-up mouse to be tested 10 into the testing machine 1, and take out the mouse 10 that has been tested in the testing machine 1 and place it into the mouse placement area 23; the rotary drive 301 is connected to the double-sided flexible gripper 300 and is used to drive the double-sided flexible gripper 300 to rotate. In this embodiment, the rotary drive 301 is a rotary cylinder;

[0036] A three-axis drive mechanism 31 is used to drive the mouse pick-and-place mechanism 30 to move along the X-axis, Y-axis, or Z-axis direction at the conveying device 2 and the detection machine 1. The three-axis drive mechanism 31 includes:

[0037] A first guide rail 310 extends along the X-axis direction, and a first slider 311 is slidably provided on the first guide rail 310. The first slider 311 is connected to a first driving member 312 that drives the first slider 311 to slide along the first guide rail 310.

[0038] A second guide rail 313 extends along the Y-axis direction. The second guide rail 313 is disposed on the first slider 311. A second slider 314 is slidably disposed on the second guide rail 313. A second driving member 315 is connected to the second slider 314 to drive the second slider 314 to slide along the second guide rail 313.

[0039] A third guide rail 316 extends along the Z-axis direction. The third guide rail 316 is disposed on the second slider 314. A third slider 317 is slidably disposed on the third guide rail 316. The third slider 317 is connected to a third driving member 318 that drives the third slider 317 to slide along the third guide rail 316. The mouse pick-and-place mechanism 30 is disposed on the third slider 317.

[0040] In this embodiment, the three-axis drive mechanism 31 includes two first guide rails 310 extending along the X-axis direction. Each first guide rail 310 is slidably provided with a first slider 311 to enhance stability. The first drive member 312, the second drive member 315 and the third drive member 318 are all cylinders, which have a simple structure and save production costs.

[0041] The working process of this invention is as follows: In the work area 20, the worker places the mouse 10 to be tested onto the mouse placement fixture 21. The sensor (not shown in the figure) on the mouse placement fixture 21 senses the mouse 10 and transmits a signal to the slide driver (not shown in the figure) connected to the loading slide 22. The slide driver (not shown in the figure) drives the lead screw 221 to move the slide 220 and the mouse placement fixture 21 fixed on the slide 220 to the vicinity of the picking device 3. The three-axis drive mechanism 31 drives the mouse picking and placing mechanism 30 to move to the mouse placement fixture 21. The double-sided flexible gripper 300 of the mouse picking and placing mechanism 30... One of the grippers picks up the mouse 10 to be tested and moves it to the testing machine 1. The rotation drive 301 drives the double-sided flexible gripper 300 to rotate, and the other gripper of the double-sided flexible gripper 300 picks up the mouse 10 that has been tested in the testing machine 1. The rotation drive 301 drives the double-sided flexible gripper 300 to rotate again and puts the mouse 10 to be tested into the testing machine 1. Next, the three-axis drive mechanism 31 drives the mouse pick-and-place mechanism 30 to move to the vicinity of the mouse placement area 23 and places the tested mouse 10 into the good product placement area 230 or the defective product placement area 231. The above process is then repeated.

[0042] The beneficial effects of this invention are that by adding a conveying device 2 and a picking device 3, the traditional method of manually placing the mouse 10 directly into the testing machine 1 is replaced by manually placing the mouse 10 onto the mouse placement fixture 21. Then, the conveying device 2 and the picking device 3 automatically feed the mouse 10 and distinguish between good and defective products and place them in the corresponding placement areas. This improves the feeding efficiency and accuracy, avoids the impact of frequent personnel contact with the testing machine 1 on the testing accuracy of the testing machine 1, and improves the safety factor.

[0043] It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made by those skilled in the art to the above embodiments based on the technical solutions of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
