Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic product assembly technology, and more particularly to a carrier and electronic product assembly apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] In the manufacturing process of electronic products such as mobile phones and tablets, the display screen needs to be assembled onto the housing using a press-fit method. Specifically, the display screen is usually coated with adhesive, and during the assembly process, pressure is applied to the display screen for a preset time to bond it to the housing. Before assembling the display screen and housing, they need to be aligned. That is, the display screen and housing to be assembled need to be moved sequentially to the alignment station and the assembly station for alignment and assembly operations.

[0003] In existing electronic product assembly equipment, the display screen and housing to be assembled are typically carried by a carrier, and the carrier is transported to the alignment station via a conveyor line for alignment. Because the display screen is coated with adhesive, in order to prevent the display screen and housing from sticking together before alignment, traditional carriers generally need to be set up with two placement areas, one for the display screen and the other for the housing. The carrier is relatively large, which is not conducive to the layout of the electronic product assembly equipment. At the same time, since the display screen and housing are placed in separate areas, the electronic product assembly equipment needs to move the display screen to a position that is vertically opposite to the housing before aligning the display screen and housing, which increases the operation time for aligning the display screen and housing, resulting in low work efficiency. Moreover, the electronic product assembly equipment requires an additional handling structure for moving the display screen, making the structure of the electronic product assembly equipment relatively complex.

[0004] Therefore, the above problems urgently need to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a carrier and an electronic product assembly apparatus to solve the problems of traditional carriers, which generally have two placement areas, one for the display screen and the other for the housing. These carriers are relatively large, which is not conducive to the arrangement of the electronic product assembly apparatus. Furthermore, since the display screen and housing are placed in separate areas, the electronic product assembly apparatus needs to move the display screen to a position vertically opposite the housing before aligning them, which increases the alignment time and results in low efficiency. In addition, the electronic product assembly apparatus requires an additional handling structure for moving the display screen, making the structure of the electronic product assembly apparatus relatively complex.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, and not all of the structures.

Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used only for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0045] Please see Figures 1 to 8 This embodiment provides an electronic product assembly apparatus, which includes a carrier, an adjustment mechanism, a detection mechanism 220, and a first adsorption module 230. The carrier is used to carry the display screen and the housing to be assembled. The adjustment mechanism, the detection mechanism 220, and the first adsorption module 230 are all arranged at the alignment station. That is, the adjustment mechanism is used to adjust the position of the housing, while the detection mechanism 220 is configured to detect the relative position of the display screen and the housing. In this embodiment, the adjustment mechanism can adjust the position of the housing according to the detection result of the detection mechanism 220, thereby aligning the display screen and the housing. The first adsorption module 230 is configured to adsorb the display screen to ensure that the display screen remains stationary during the adjustment of the housing position by the adjustment mechanism, thereby providing an accurate reference for the adjustment mechanism to adjust the housing position.

[0046] In this embodiment, the carrier includes a first platform 110 and a flipping mechanism 150. The first platform 110 is configured as a carrier housing. A first carrier block 120 and a second carrier block 130 are respectively provided on both sides of the first platform 110 along a first horizontal direction. A third carrier block 140 is provided on one side of the first platform 110 along a second horizontal direction. The first horizontal direction is the length direction of the first platform 110, and the second horizontal direction is the width direction of the first platform 110. The flipping mechanism 150 can drive the first carrier block 120, the second carrier block 130, and the third carrier block 140 to rotate toward or away from the first platform 110, so that the first carrier block 120, the second carrier block 130, and the third carrier block 140 have a first working state in which they surround and form a second platform 170, and a second working state in which they are spread out and located on the outer periphery of the first platform 110 along the horizontal direction. The bearing surface of the second platform 170 is located above the first platform 110 and is configured to bear a display screen.

[0047] In this embodiment, when the first carrier block 120, the second carrier block 130, and the third carrier block 140 are in the second working state, the carrier only has the first platform 110, so that the housing can be placed on the first platform 110. When the first carrier block 120, the second carrier block 130, and the third carrier block 140 are in the first working state, a second platform 170 is formed on the carrier, and the display screen can be placed on the second platform 170. Since the bearing surface of the second platform 170 is located above the first platform 110, the display screen and the housing on the carrier are arranged vertically at intervals, that is, the display screen and the housing on the carrier do not contact each other, thereby preventing the display screen and the housing from sticking together.

[0048] Since the carrier in this embodiment only needs to set up one placement area to simultaneously place the display screen and the housing, and can prevent the display screen and the housing from sticking together before alignment, the carrier in this embodiment is small in size, thereby saving space and facilitating the arrangement of the electronic product assembly device. In addition, since the display screen and the housing placed on the carrier are arranged vertically at intervals, the electronic product assembly device in this embodiment does not need to set up an additional handling structure for moving the display screen. The structure is simple and the operation time for aligning the display screen and the housing in the electronic product assembly device is shortened, thereby improving the working efficiency of the electronic product assembly device.

[0049] Preferably, the flipping mechanism 150 includes a first rotating shaft 151, a second rotating shaft 153, and a third rotating shaft 155. The first rotating shaft 151 extends along a second horizontal direction. A first carrier block 120 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first rotating shaft 151. The first rotating shaft 151 is tractably connected to a first driving member 152. The first driving member 152 is configured to drive the first rotating shaft 151 to rotate around its axis. The second rotating shaft 153 extends along a second horizontal direction. The first rotating shaft 151 and the second rotating shaft 153 are respectively located on both sides of the first platform 110 along the first horizontal direction. A second carrier block 130 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the second rotating shaft 153. The second rotating shaft 153 is tractably connected to a second driving member 154. The second driving member 154 is configured to drive the second rotating shaft 153 to rotate around its axis. The first driving member 152 and the second driving member 154 can respectively drive the first carrier block 120 and the second carrier block 130 to rotate toward or away from the first platform 110.

[0050] The third rotating shaft 155 is located on one side of the first platform 110 along the second horizontal direction and extends along the first horizontal direction. The third carrier block 140 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the third rotating shaft 155. The third rotating shaft 155 can be driven to the third driving member 156. The third driving member 156 is configured to drive the third rotating shaft 155 to rotate around its axis, thereby causing the third carrier block 140 to rotate toward or away from the first platform 110.

[0051] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the first driving member 152, the second driving member 154, and the third driving member 156 are arranged side by side, with the third driving member 156 located between the first driving member 152 and the second driving member 154, thereby further reducing the volume of the carrier and further facilitating the arrangement of the electronic product assembly device. The third driving member 156 can be connected to the third rotating shaft 155 via a transmission assembly. The transmission assembly can be a bevel gear transmission structure or a worm gear transmission structure, and this embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0052] It is understood that the first driving component 152, the second driving component 154 and the third driving component 156 can all be selected as driving structures such as stepper motors or servo motors, and no specific restrictions are imposed on them in this embodiment.

[0053] Based on the above description, in this embodiment, the adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment platform 211, which is configured to move the housing along a first horizontal direction, and / or move the housing along a second horizontal direction, and / or rotate the housing about a fourth pivot (not shown in the figure). The fourth pivot extends vertically, and the second horizontal direction is perpendicular to the first horizontal direction. That is, the adjustment platform 211 can move the housing in the horizontal plane and / or rotate the housing in the horizontal plane to align the display screen and the housing.

[0054] In addition to the carrier, adjustment mechanism, detection mechanism 220 and first adsorption module 230, the electronic product assembly apparatus in this embodiment also includes a conveyor line 310, which is configured to transport the carrier to the alignment station to perform alignment operations on the display screen and housing mounted on the carrier.

[0055] It is understood that in this embodiment, the electronic product assembly device is also provided with an assembly station, and a pressing mechanism (not shown in the figure) is provided at the assembly station. The alignment station and the assembly station are arranged at intervals along the conveying direction of the conveyor line 310. The conveyor line 310 can sequentially convey the carrier to the alignment station and the assembly station to perform alignment and assembly operations on the display screen and the housing in sequence.

[0056] Furthermore, a first photoelectric sensor 311 is provided on the conveyor line 310. The first photoelectric sensor 311 is located at the alignment station and is configured to detect whether the display screen is flat, so as to ensure that the display screen absorbed by the first adsorption module 230 is in a horizontal state, thereby providing an accurate reference for the adjustment mechanism to adjust the position of the housing.

[0057] It is understandable that a second photoelectric sensor 312 and a blocking module 313 are installed at both the alignment station and the assembly station. The second photoelectric sensor 312 is used to detect the position of the carrier, and the blocking module 313 is used to block the carrier from continuing to be transported along the conveyor line 310, thereby ensuring that the carrier can move accurately to the alignment station or the assembly station.

[0058] Since the specific structure of the blocking module 313 is existing technology, it will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0059] In addition, in this embodiment, the detection mechanism 220 and the first adsorption module 230 are both mounted on the base frame 250. The base frame 250 is also equipped with a barcode scanner 251, which is used to scan the identification code set on the carrier, thereby obtaining and recording the information of the display screen and housing that the adjustment mechanism, the detection mechanism 220 and the first adsorption module 230 need to align.

[0060] In addition, in this embodiment, the first platform 110 is hollow, and the adjustment mechanism also includes a lifting module 212. The lifting module 212 can lift the adjustment platform 211 so that the adjustment platform 211 passes through the first platform 110 and lifts the housing, thereby detaching the housing from the first platform 110. This prevents the housing from being affected by friction from the first platform 110 during the adjustment of the housing position by the adjustment platform 211, thereby ensuring that the adjustment platform 211 can accurately adjust the housing to be aligned with the display screen.

[0061] Based on the above, the adjustment platform 211 includes a three-axis adjustment stage 2111 and a second adsorption module 2112. The second adsorption module 2112 is mounted on the three-axis adjustment stage 2111. The lifting module 212 is configured to lift the three-axis adjustment stage 2111 so that the second adsorption module 2112 can adsorb the housing and detach the housing from the first platform 110. The three-axis adjustment stage 2111 is configured to move the second adsorption module 2112 along a first horizontal direction, and / or move the second adsorption module 2112 along a second horizontal direction, and / or rotate the second adsorption module 2112 around a fourth rotating axis. The second adsorption module 2112 can adsorb the housing, thereby preventing the housing from moving relative to the three-axis adjustment stage 2111 during the adjustment of the housing position by the adjustment platform 211, and further ensuring that the adjustment platform 211 can accurately adjust the housing to be aligned with the display screen.

[0062] It is understood that since the specific structure of the three-axis adjustment stage 2111 is existing technology, it will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0063] Preferably, the first adsorption module 230 in this embodiment includes a suction cup 231 and a fourth driving member 232. The fourth driving member 232 is configured to drive the suction cup 231 to move in the vertical direction so that the suction cup 231 can adsorb the display screen, thereby ensuring that the display screen remains stationary during the process of the three-axis adjustment table 2111 adjusting the position of the housing.

[0064] It is understood that the fourth driving component 232 can be selected as a linear drive structure such as a cylinder or an electric cylinder, and no specific restrictions are made on this in this embodiment.

[0065] In this embodiment, the detection mechanism 220 preferably includes a first laser head 221, a second laser head 222, a third laser head 223, and a fourth laser head 224. The first laser head 221 and the second laser head 222 are arranged opposite each other along a first horizontal direction, and the third laser head 223 and the fourth laser head 224 are arranged opposite each other along a second horizontal direction. The first laser head 221, the second laser head 222, the third laser head 223, and the fourth laser head 224 can detect the relative position of the display screen and the housing from the four sides of the display screen and the housing, respectively, thereby ensuring that an accurate reference is provided for the adjustment mechanism to adjust the position of the housing.

[0066] Based on the above, since this embodiment uses the first laser head 221, the second laser head 222, the third laser head 223, and the fourth laser head 224 to detect the relative position of the display screen and the housing from around their respective perimeters, it is necessary to ensure that the housing and the display screen are positioned between the first laser head 221, the second laser head 222, the third laser head 223, and the fourth laser head 224 before adjusting the position of the housing. Therefore, the lifting module 212 in this embodiment includes a fifth driving component 2121 and a lifting plate 2122. The fifth driving component 2121 can drive the adjustment platform 211 and the lifting plate 2122 to rise synchronously. After the adjustment platform 211 rises for the first stroke, its upper surface is flush with the bearing surface of the first platform 110. Then, during the adjustment... As the platform 211 continues to rise, the adjustment platform 211 can lift the housing so that the housing is separated from the first platform 110. After the lifting plate 2122 rises for the second stroke, the lifting plate 2122 abuts against the carrier. Specifically, the carrier includes a carrier plate 160, and the first platform 110, the first carrier block 120, the second carrier block 130, the third carrier block 140 and the flipping mechanism 150 are all installed on the carrier plate 160. After the lifting plate 2122 rises for the second stroke, the lifting plate 2122 abuts against the carrier plate 160. The second stroke is greater than the first stroke. Afterwards, as the lifting plate 2122 continues to rise, the lifting plate 2122 can push the carrier plate 160 to rise, so that the lifting plate 2122 can push the carrier to rise between the first laser head 221, the second laser head 222, the third laser head 223 and the fourth laser head 224.

[0067] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the carrier moves to the alignment station, the fifth drive component 2121 drives the adjustment platform 211 and the lifting plate 2122 to rise synchronously. During the synchronous rise of the adjustment platform 211 and the lifting plate 2122, the adjustment platform 211 first abuts against the housing. Then, the adjustment platform 211 and the lifting plate 2122 continue to rise synchronously to disengage the housing from the first platform 110. After the adjustment platform 211 and the lifting plate 2122 have risen for a second stroke, the lifting plate 2122 abuts against the carrier. Afterwards... The adjustment platform 211 and the lifting plate 2122 continue to rise synchronously. The carrier is lifted by the lifting plate 2122, detached from the conveyor line 310, and rises to a position between the first laser head 221, the second laser head 222, the third laser head 223, and the fourth laser head 224. Then, the first adsorption module 230 adsorbs the display screen. Then, the detection mechanism 220 detects the relative position of the display screen and the housing. The adjustment mechanism adjusts the position of the housing according to the detection result of the detection mechanism 220, thereby aligning the display screen and the housing.

[0068] When the carrier is lifted off the conveyor line 310 by the lifting plate 2122 and rises to a position between the first laser head 221, the second laser head 222, the third laser head 223, and the fourth laser head 224, the first adsorption module 230 adsorbs the display screen. Afterward, the first carrier block 120, the second carrier block 130, and the third carrier block 140 switch to the second working state to avoid interfering with the detection of the relative position of the display screen and the housing by the first laser head 221, the second laser head 222, the third laser head 223, and the fourth laser head 224.

[0069] Furthermore, after the adjustment mechanism aligns the housing and the display screen, the first adsorption module 230 can descend vertically, bringing the display screen into contact with the housing for pre-installation. Then, the first adsorption module 230 releases its adsorption of the display screen, and the fifth drive component 2121 drives the adjustment platform 211 and the lifting plate 2122 to descend synchronously, allowing the housing to be re-supported on the first carrier 110. Afterward, the carrier is re-supported on the conveyor line 310, which transports the carrier from the alignment station to the assembly station. In this embodiment, the display screen and housing can be pre-installed during the alignment process, thus preventing relative movement of the display screen and housing due to unforeseen circumstances during the carrier's movement from the alignment station to the assembly station.

[0070] It should be noted that a pressure sensor (not shown in the figure) is installed on the suction cup 231 in this embodiment. The pressure sensor can detect the pressure applied by the suction cup 231 to the display screen, thereby avoiding damage to the display screen.

[0071] Furthermore, the electronic product assembly device in this embodiment also includes a positioning mechanism 240. The positioning mechanism 240 is mounted on the base frame 250 and configured to position the housing supported on the first platform 110. That is, in this embodiment, when the carrier moves to the alignment station, the positioning mechanism 240 first performs preliminary positioning of the housing, thereby reducing the number of adjustments required by the adjustment platform 211 and further improving the working efficiency of the electronic product assembly device.

[0072] Preferably, the positioning mechanism 240 includes a first positioning module 241 and a second positioning module 242. The first positioning module 241 includes a first roller 2411 and a second roller 2412. The second positioning module 242 includes a third roller 2421, a fourth roller 2422, a sixth driving member 2423, and a seventh driving member 2424. The first roller 2411 and the third roller 2421 are respectively located on both sides of the first platform 110 along the first horizontal direction. The second roller 2412 and the fourth roller 2422 are respectively located on the first... Along the second horizontal direction, on both sides of the platform 110, the movable end of the sixth drive member 2423 is equipped with a first mounting plate 2425. The third roller 2421 and the fourth roller 2422 are both mounted on a second mounting plate 2426. The second mounting plate 2426 is rotatably connected to the first mounting plate 2425 via a fifth rotating shaft 2427 extending vertically. The sixth drive member 2423 is configured to drive the first mounting plate 2425 to move along the third horizontal direction toward the first positioning module 241. The direction is set at an angle to both the first and second horizontal directions. The seventh driving member 2424 is configured to drive the third roller 2421 and the fourth roller 2422 to move vertically. With the cooperation of the sixth driving member 2423 and the seventh driving member 2424, the third roller 2421 and the fourth roller 2422 can extend between the display screen and the housing. Furthermore, the sixth driving member 2423 can drive the third roller 2421 and the fourth roller 2422 to continue moving towards the first positioning module 2 after extending between the display screen and the housing. 41. Movement: Since the second mounting plate 2426 is rotatably connected to the first mounting plate 2425 via the fifth rotating shaft 2427, during the process of the sixth driving member 2423 driving the first mounting plate 2425 to move towards the first positioning module 241 in the third horizontal direction, the second mounting plate 2426 can adaptively adjust the positions of the third roller 2421 and the fourth roller 2422 to clamp the housing between the first roller 2411, the second roller 2412, the third roller 2421 and the fourth roller 2422.

[0073] It should be noted that the first positioning module 241 also includes an eighth driving member 2413 and a ninth driving member 2414. The eighth driving member 2413 is configured to drive the first roller 2411 and the second roller 2412 to move towards the second positioning module 242 along a fourth horizontal direction. The fourth horizontal direction is set at an angle to both the first and second horizontal directions. The ninth driving member 2414 is configured to drive the first roller 2411 and the second roller 2412 to move in a vertical direction. That is, when the carrier moves to the alignment station, with the cooperation of the eighth driving member 2413 and the ninth driving member 2414, The first roller 2411 and the second roller 2412 extend between the display screen and the housing. After the first roller 2411 and the second roller 2412 extend between the display screen and the housing, the eighth drive member 2413 and the ninth drive member 2414 both stop driving. The first roller 2411 and the second roller 2412 are then held between the display screen and the housing as positioning references. After that, the third roller 2421 and the fourth roller 2422 move toward the first positioning module 241 to clamp the housing between the first roller 2411, the second roller 2412, the third roller 2421 and the fourth roller 2422.

[0074] Understandably, after positioning is completed, the sixth drive member 2423 and the seventh drive member 2424 drive the third roller 2421 and the fourth roller 2422 to move out from between the display screen and the housing. At the same time, the eighth drive member 2413 and the ninth drive member 2414 drive the first roller 2411 and the second roller 2412 to move out from between the display screen and the housing, thereby avoiding affecting the subsequent adjustment mechanism to lift the housing and the carrier.

[0075] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism 240 also includes a third positioning module 243, which includes a fifth roller 2431. The fifth roller 2431 and the first roller 2411 are arranged at intervals along a second horizontal direction, or the fifth roller 2431 and the second roller 2412 are arranged at intervals along a first horizontal direction. The fifth roller 2431 can provide guidance for the housing as the third roller 2421 and the fourth roller 2422 push against the housing and move toward the first positioning module 241.

[0076] It should be noted that the third positioning module 243 also includes a tenth driving member 2432 and an eleventh driving member 2433. The tenth driving member 2432 is configured to drive the fifth roller 2431 to move in the horizontal direction, and the eleventh driving member 2433 is configured to drive the fifth roller 2431 to move in the vertical direction, so that the fifth roller 2431 can extend into or out of the space between the display screen and the housing.

[0077] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the first driving member 152, the second driving member 154, and the third driving member 156 are disposed at the loading station of the display screen and the housing, rather than on the carrier plate 160. The first driving member 152, the second driving member 154, and the third driving member 156 can all move in the horizontal direction, thereby docking with the first rotating shaft 151, the second rotating shaft 153, and the third rotating shaft 155 respectively. This allows the first carrier block 120, the second carrier block 130, and the third carrier block 140 to switch between the first working state and the second working state at the loading station, which facilitates the sequential placement of the housing and the display screen.

[0078] In addition, a first drive unit 152, a second drive unit 154, and a third drive unit 156 are also provided at the alignment station. When the carrier is lifted off the conveyor line 310 by the lifting plate 2122 and rises to a position between the first laser head 221, the second laser head 222, the third laser head 223, and the fourth laser head 224, the flipping mechanism 150 becomes flush with the first drive unit 152, the second drive unit 154, and the third drive unit 156. The drive unit 156 can be connected to the first rotating shaft 151, the second rotating shaft 153 and the third rotating shaft 155 respectively, thereby enabling the first carrier block 120, the second carrier block 130 and the third carrier block 140 to switch to the second working state. After the adjustment mechanism aligns the housing with the display screen, the first drive unit 152, the second drive unit 154 and the third drive unit 156 disengage from the first rotating shaft 151, the second rotating shaft 153 and the third rotating shaft 155 respectively, thereby allowing the carrier to descend and be reloaded onto the conveyor line 310.

[0079] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will be able to make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here.
