[0034] The circuit board frame feeding and discharging equipment can automatically realize the feeding and discharging of the circuit board and the frame insertion, the frame pre-storage position 4 pre-stores the frame, so that the frame transfer device 5, the frame transfer device 6, the upper plate manipulator 9 and the lower plate manipulator 91 can work simultaneously without interfering with each other, the connection of the upper and lower plates and the frame insertion action is more compact, the waiting time in the frame insertion and the upper and lower plate process is saved, the production efficiency of the circuit board is greatly improved, and the position precision and quality of the upper and lower plates and the frame insertion are high and good.
[0035] Specifically, the visual positioning mechanism 12 is arranged between the upper plate positioning mechanism 7 and the lower plate positioning mechanism 8 and is arranged on the machine table 1. In actual application, after the upper plate manipulator 9 picks up the circuit board carried by the upper plate carrier, the upper plate manipulator 9 first moves the circuit board to the visual positioning mechanism 12 for visual positioning, and then picks up the visually positioned circuit board to the board frame carried by the board frame opening and clamping device 3, so as to ensure the feeding accuracy of the circuit board. After the lower plate manipulator 91 picks up the circuit board carried by the board frame, the lower plate manipulator 91 first moves the circuit board to the visual positioning mechanism 12 for visual positioning, and then moves the visually positioned circuit board to the lower plate carrier, so as to ensure the feeding accuracy of the circuit board.
[0036] Specifically, the top of the board frame pre-storage position 4 is provided with a plurality of limiting members 41, and the plurality of limiting members 41 surrounds to form a limiting space. When the board frame pre-storage position 4 carries the board frame, the board frame is located in the limiting space, and the limiting space limits the board frame, so as to improve the position accuracy and stability of the board frame on the board frame pre-storage position 4.
[0037] In the embodiment, the board frame opening and clamping device 3 is an automatic board frame opening and clamping and adjusting device, and the board frame is an adjustable board frame. The automatic board frame opening and clamping and adjusting device is used for opening the board clamps on the board frame or / and adjusting the size of the board frame.
[0038] In actual application, according to the size of the circuit board carried by the upper plate carrier, the automatic board frame opening and clamping and adjusting device can automatically adjust the size of the clamping plate space of the board frame, so as to meet the needs of circuit boards of different sizes, and the degree of automation is high and the practicability is strong.
[0039] In the embodiment, the board frame transfer device 5 includes two oppositely arranged board frame transfer mechanisms 51, and the two board frame transfer mechanisms 51 are respectively located on the two sides of the support table 11. The board frame transfer mechanism 51 includes a first transfer module 52 arranged on the support table 11 or / and the machine table 1, a lifting module 53 arranged on the transfer end of the first transfer module 52, and a positioning structure 54 arranged on the lifting end of the lifting module 53. The positioning structure 54 is used for positioning the board frame. Specifically, the positioning structure 54 is a pin shaft, and the periphery of the board frame is provided with a shaft hole. The first transfer module 52 and the lifting module 53 can both adopt a linear driving module (such as a linear motor, an air cylinder, etc.).
[0040] In actual application, when it is needed to transfer the board frame from the board frame opening and clamping device 3 to the board frame pre-storage position 4, the lifting end of the lifting module 53 of the board frame transfer mechanism 51 is lifted to drive the positioning structure 54 to rise. The rising positioning structure 54 is positioned and matched with the shaft hole of the board frame to stably lift the board frame. Then, the first transfer module 52 drives the lifting module 53 to move the positioning structure 54 and the board frame to above the board frame pre-storage position 4. Finally, the lifting end of the lifting module 53 is lowered to drive the board frame to descend, until the board frame is placed on the board frame pre-storage position 4, so as to realize the transfer of the board frame.
[0041] In the embodiment, the transfer frame inserting device 6 comprises two oppositely arranged transfer frame inserting mechanisms 61, and the two transfer frame inserting mechanisms 61 are respectively arranged on the two sides of the support table 11. The transfer frame inserting mechanism 61 comprises a second transfer module 62 arranged on the machine table 1, a lifting mechanism 63 arranged on the transfer end of the second transfer module 62, a rotating mechanism 64 arranged on the lifting end of the lifting mechanism 63, and a frame clamping mechanism 65 arranged on the rotating end of the rotating mechanism 64, and the frame clamping mechanism 65 is used for clamping the plate frame. Specifically, the second transfer module 62 can adopt a linear driving module.
[0042] In actual application, when the plate frame on the plate frame pre-storage site 4 needs to be inserted into the frame inserting carrier, the lifting mechanism 63 drives the rotating mechanism 64 and the frame clamping mechanism 65 to rise to the required height, and the second transfer module 62 drives the lifting mechanism 63, the rotating mechanism 64 and the frame clamping mechanism 65 to move to the edge of the plate frame carried by the plate frame pre-storage site 4, so that the edge of the plate frame is located in the frame clamping end of the frame clamping mechanism 65. Then the frame clamping end of the frame clamping mechanism 65 clamps the plate frame, and the lifting mechanism 63 drives the rotating mechanism 64, the frame clamping mechanism 65 and the plate frame to rise to the highest position. Then the rotating mechanism 64 drives the frame clamping mechanism 65 and the plate frame to rotate 90°, so that the plate frame is rotated from the horizontal state to the vertical state. Then the second transfer module 62 drives the lifting mechanism 63, the rotating mechanism 64, the frame clamping mechanism 65 and the plate frame to move above the frame inserting carrier, so that the plate frame is aligned with the plate inserting slot of the frame inserting carrier. Finally, the lifting mechanism 63 drives the rotating mechanism 64, the frame clamping mechanism 65 and the plate frame to move downward until the plate frame is inserted into the corresponding plate inserting slot, and the frame clamping mechanism 65 can release the plate frame to complete the plate frame inserting action. When the plate frame in the frame inserting carrier needs to be transferred to the plate frame opening and clamping device 3, the discharging of the plate frame can be completed by reversing the operation.
[0043] In the embodiment, the upper plate positioning mechanism 7 and / or the lower plate positioning mechanism 8 comprises a conveying table 71 arranged on the machine table 1, a baffle 72 arranged on one end of the conveying table 71 close to the support table 11, and a limiting module 73 arranged on the baffle 72, and the limiting module 73 is located below the conveying table 71. Specifically, the conveying table 71 can adopt a roller table. Preferably, the structure of the upper plate positioning mechanism 7 is the same as that of the lower plate positioning mechanism 8, which is simple in structure, convenient to maintain and good in interchangeability. The working principle of the lower plate positioning mechanism 8 is the same as that of the upper plate positioning mechanism 7, which will not be described here. In actual application, the upper plate carrier full of circuit boards to be processed is conveyed to the feeding position through the conveying table 71 until the upper plate carrier abuts against the baffle 72. Then the limiting module 73 limits the bottom of the upper plate carrier on the conveying table 71 to ensure the position accuracy and stability of the upper plate carrier, thereby improving the position accuracy and stability of the upper plate manipulator 9 picking the circuit board.
[0044] Specifically, the upper plate carrier and the lower plate carrier are both L-shaped frames, the limiting module 73 includes a lifting rotary cylinder installed at the bottom of the baffle 72 and a limiting block installed at the piston rod of the lifting rotary cylinder, and the lifting rotary cylinder is horizontally arranged. In actual application, when the upper plate carrier is in contact with the baffle 72, the piston rod of the lifting rotary cylinder drives the limiting block to rotate and move, so that the limiting block protrudes to the bottom limiting groove of the upper plate carrier and then is in contact with the inner wall of the limiting groove, so as to clamp the upper plate carrier through the cooperation of the limiting block and the baffle 72, thereby ensuring the position accuracy and stability of the upper plate carrier. Of course, when the circuit board on the upper plate carrier is completely taken away, the conveying table 71 outputs the empty upper plate carrier, so as to replace the upper plate carrier.
[0045] In the embodiment, the frame inserting positioning mechanism 2 includes a base 21 arranged on the machine table 1, a docking sliding plate 22 slidably connected to the top of the base 21, a moving driving module 23 arranged on the base 21 and used for driving the docking sliding plate 22 to move back and forth, and a positioning module 24 arranged on the side of the docking sliding plate 22. The top surface of the docking sliding plate 22 is provided with a docking guide rail 25.
[0046] In actual application, the moving driving module 23 drives the docking sliding plate 22 to slide relative to the base 21, so that one end of the docking sliding plate 22 protrudes out of the base 21 and is docked with an external device. The docking guide rail 25 on the docking sliding plate 22 is docked with a docking sliding rail of the external device. The external device moves the frame carrier along the docking sliding rail and the docking guide rail 25 to the docking sliding plate 22. When the frame carrier is moved to the position, the moving driving module 23 drives the docking sliding plate 22 to move back until the frame carrier is located at the frame inserting position. The reverse operation can realize the output of the frame carrier, so as to replace the frame carrier.
[0047] In the embodiment, the positioning module 24 includes a positioning cylinder 26 arranged on the bottom surface of the docking sliding plate 22, a positioning pin 27 arranged on the piston rod of the positioning cylinder 26, and a guide sleeve 28 embedded in the docking sliding plate 22. The positioning pin 27 is slidably connected with the guide sleeve 28, and the positioning pin 27 can protrude out of the top of the guide sleeve 28.
[0048] In actual application, when the frame carrier is in position, the shaft hole at the bottom of the frame carrier is aligned with the positioning pin 27. The piston rod of the positioning cylinder 26 is extended and inserts the positioning pin 27 into the shaft hole. The positioning pin 27 is in concave-convex cooperation with the shaft hole of the frame carrier to accurately and stably position the frame carrier on the docking sliding plate 22, thereby improving the position accuracy and stability of the frame carrier on the docking sliding plate 22. In the lifting process of the positioning pin 27, the positioning pin 27 is in sliding cooperation with the guide sleeve 28, thereby improving the stability of the lifting of the positioning pin 27.
[0049] In this embodiment, the machine table 1 is provided with a docking structure 13. The top of the docking structure 13 is provided with a docking rail 14 for docking with the docking guide rail 25. The docking structure 13 is provided with a positioning space away from the frame positioning mechanism 2. The machine table 1 is provided with a docking elevator 16. The lifting end of the docking elevator 16 is connected with the base 21.
[0050] In actual application, when it is necessary to transfer the frame carrier carried by the frame positioning mechanism 2, the external equipment is moved into the docking space 15 so that the external equipment is docked with the docking structure 13. The docking slide rail is precisely docked with the docking guide rail 25. At the same time, the docking elevator 16 drives the frame positioning mechanism 2 to rise so that the height of the docking rail 14 is consistent with that of the docking guide rail 25. Then, the movement driving module 23 drives the docking slide plate 22 to slide relative to the base 21 so that one end of the docking slide plate 22 protrudes out of the base 21 and is docked with the docking structure 13. Thus, the docking guide rail 25 is precisely docked with the docking rail 14. In turn, the external equipment is precisely docked with the frame positioning mechanism 2 via the docking structure 13. Thus, the frame carrier can be transferred between the frame positioning mechanism 2 and the external equipment. By providing the docking structure 13, the external equipment and the frame positioning mechanism 2 can be stably and accurately docked.
[0051] Specifically, the docking slide plate 22 is provided with an avoiding slot at one end close to the docking structure 13. The avoiding slot provides an avoiding space for the pushing and pulling end of the pushing and pulling mechanism of the external equipment. Thus, the external equipment can push or pull the frame carrier into or out of the frame positioning mechanism 2.
[0052] Specifically, the docking slide plate 22 is movably connected with the base 21 via a slide rail and slide block assembly or / and a roller. This structure design improves the movement stability of the docking slide plate 22.
