Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to an electronic component processing machine that can shorten the unloading / refilling operation sequence of the feeding device and the receiving device and improve production efficiency. Background Technology
[0002] like Figure 1 As shown, the feeding device of the electronic component processing machine has a feeding tray area 11 and a feeding area 12 arranged in the Y direction. The feeder 13 moves the feeding tray 14 containing the electronic component to be tested from the feeding tray area 11 to the feeding area 12 in the Y direction. The feeding tray 14 in the feeding area 12 is used by the transfer device 15 of the testing device to remove the electronic component to be tested and perform the testing operation. When the feeding tray 14 in the feeding area 12 is empty, the feeder 13 must move the empty feeding tray 14 in the opposite Y direction back to the feeding tray area 11 to unload the empty feeding tray 14 before it can be fed from the feeding tray area again. 11 transports the next feed tray 14A containing the electronic component to be tested to the feed area 12 to continue feeding; however, the operation sequence of the feeder 13 not only requires a cumbersome and time-consuming process of transporting the unloaded empty feed tray 14 between the feed area 11 and the feed area 12, but also, during the journey of transporting the unloaded empty feed tray 14 back to the feed area 11, since the unloading path and the replenishment path are the same, the feeder 13 cannot quickly replenish the tray in the feed area 12. As a result, the transfer device 15 of the working device also needs to wait for the feeder 13 to unload and replenish the tray before it can pick up the next batch of electronic components to be tested, thereby reducing production efficiency.

The feeder can transport the tray in the tray feeding area to the tray holding area for temporary placement along the feeding path in the second direction, and transport the tray in the tray holding area to at least one transfer mechanism of the intermediate device 60 along the feeding path.
[0033] In this embodiment, the feeding device 30 includes a feeding tray area 31, a feeding tray temporary area 32, and a feeder. The feeding tray area 31 and the feeding tray temporary area 32 are arranged in a second direction (e.g., the Y direction), and a feeding path is provided between them. The feeding tray area 31 holds at least one tray 71 with an electronic component to be operated. The feeder includes a feeding pulley assembly 33 and a feeding device (not shown in the figure). The feeding device is arranged in the feeding tray area 31 and can be displaced in a third direction (e.g., the Z direction) to transfer the tray 71 with the electronic component to be operated from the feeding tray area 31 to the feeding pulley assembly 33. The feeding pulley assembly 33 is arranged in the second direction to transport the tray 71 with the electronic component to be operated along the feeding path between the feeding tray area 31 and the feeding tray temporary area 32. The feeding tray temporary area 32 is used to temporarily hold the tray 71.

The receiving pulley assembly 43 is arranged in the second direction to receive at least one other transfer mechanism of the intermediate device 60 in the receiving temporary area 42 and convey the tray with the operated electronic components along the receiving path and in the second direction. It also conveys the tray in the receiving temporary area 42 to the receiving area 41 along the receiving path. The receiving tool is arranged in the receiving area 41 and can be displaced in the third direction to transfer the tray with the operated electronic components on the receiving pulley assembly 43 to the receiving area 41 for storage.
[0036] The working device 50 is disposed on the machine base 20 and is equipped with at least one working device and at least one transfer device. The working device is used to perform preset operations on electronic components, and the transfer device is used to move electronic components to be operated or operated electronic components into or out of the working device and a plurality of transfer mechanisms of the intermediate device 60.

[0037] In this embodiment, the working device 50 has a tester for testing electronic components. The tester has an electrically connected circuit board 51 and a test socket 52. The test socket 52 is used to hold and test electronic components. At least one transfer device includes a first transfer device 53, a second transfer device 54, a third transfer device 55, a fourth transfer device 56, and a fifth transfer device 57.

The second transfer device 54 transports the electronic component under test to one side of the test socket 52. The third transfer device 55 transports the electronic component under test / tested electronic component between the second transfer device 54, the test socket 52, and the fourth transfer device 56. The fourth transfer device 56 removes the tested electronic component. The fifth transfer device 57 transfers the tested electronic component between the fourth transfer device 56 and two other transfer mechanisms of the intermediary device 60.
[0038] Depending on the operational requirements, the third transfer device can simply perform the transfer of electronic components, and it is also possible to use a crimper to perform the crimping of electronic components. Furthermore, if the third transfer device has the function of crimping and transferring electronic components, a temperature control unit (not shown in the figure) can be configured. The temperature control unit has at least one temperature control device on the third transfer device for temperature control of electronic components; furthermore, the temperature control device can be a heating element, a cooling chip, or a fluid-containing seat.
[0039] An intermediary device 60 is configured on the machine base 20 and includes a plurality of transfer mechanisms and at least one tray-carrying mechanism. Each transfer mechanism has two oppositely arranged transfer devices for holding trays. At least one of the transfer devices can be adjusted in a first direction (such as the X direction). At least one transfer mechanism of the intermediary device 60 can hold a tray containing electronic components to be operated, which is conveyed by the feeding device 30 along the feeding path. At least another transfer mechanism can convey the tray containing the operated electronic components to the receiving device 40 along the receiving path. The tray-carrying mechanism has at least one tray carrier capable of displacement in the first and third directions to convey the trays between the plurality of transfer mechanisms along the replenishment path.
[0040] As mentioned above, the replenishment path of the intermediary device 60 is different from the feeding path, so that at least one transfer mechanism does not need to transport empty material trays back along the feeding path to reduce the unloading operation sequence and operation time.
[0041] Furthermore, the transfer mechanism includes a frame, two transferors, and a positioning unit. The frame is used to mount the two transferors and the positioning unit. Each of the two transferors is provided with a side frame for mounting a transfer device arranged in a second direction. The two transfer devices can hold a material tray. The positioning unit can drive at least one transferor to move in a first direction to move closer to or away from the other transferor to adjust its position.
[0042] The transfer device is equipped with at least one transfer drive source to drive the transfer tool to assist in inputting or outputting the material tray. Furthermore, the transfer device can be equipped with two independent transfer drive sources to drive two transfer tools respectively, or a transfer drive source can be used to drive two transfer tools in conjunction with each other.
[0043] The displacement unit includes a displacement driver and at least one actuator. The displacement driver can drive a transfer device to move in a first direction. The actuator connects two transfer devices and drives another transfer device to move closer to or away from a transfer device.
[0044] In this embodiment, the plurality of transfer mechanisms includes a first transfer mechanism and a second transfer mechanism. The first transfer mechanism is disposed behind the feed tray temporary area 32 of the feeding device 30 and includes a first frame 61, two first transferors, and a first displacement unit. The first frame 61 is provided with a plurality of first frame bodies 611 arranged in a Z direction on the top surface of the machine base 20. A first panel 612 with a first through hole 613 is fixed on the top surface of the plurality of first frame bodies 611. The two first transferors are disposed on the first panel 612 and located on both sides of the first through hole 613. Each first transferor is provided with a first side frame 62 arranged in a second direction. 1. On the opposite side of the two first side frames 621, there is a first transfer device arranged in the second direction and which is a first pulley group 622 for holding the material tray. Each first transfer device is provided with a first transfer drive source, which is a first motor 623, for driving the first pulley group 622. When the feeding pulley group 33 of the feeding device 30 conveys the material tray 71 to the front part of the first pulley group 622, the operation of the first pulley group 622 can assist in inputting the material tray 71. In addition, on the opposite side of the two first side frames 621, there is a first limiting frame 624 arranged in the third direction to assist in limiting the material tray 71 to move smoothly in the Z direction.
[0045] The first displacement driver of the first displacement unit is a first pressure cylinder 631 configured in a first direction (such as the X direction). The first pressure cylinder 631 is connected to a first side frame 621 by a piston rod. The first displacement unit has a first coupling 632 configured in the first direction and consisting of a pulley assembly between the two first side frames 621. The first coupling 632 is connected to the two first side frames 621 by two first coupling members 633, so that one first side frame 621 can use the first coupling 632 to drive the other first side frame 621 to move closer or further away from each other in the X direction to adjust its position.
[0046] However, depending on the operational requirements, the displacement actuator includes a motor and at least one transmission assembly. The transmission assembly can also be a screw and screw seat assembly, with the screw seat of the screw and screw seat assembly connected to a first side frame 621. When the motor drives the screw of the screw and screw seat assembly, the screw seat can be used to drive the first side frame 621 to move. This is also acceptable.
[0047] The second transfer mechanism is designed the same as the first transfer mechanism. The second transfer mechanism is located behind the receiving temporary storage area 42 of the receiving device 40 and includes a second frame 64, two second transferors, and a second displacement unit. The second frame 64 has a plurality of second frame bodies 641 arranged in a Z-direction on the top surface of the machine base 20. A second panel 642 with a second through hole 643 is fixed to the top surface of each of the plurality of second frame bodies 641. The two second transferors are arranged on the second panel 642 and located on both sides of the second through hole 643. Each second transferor has a second side frame 651 arranged in a second direction. The two second side frames 651 are provided with a second transfer device on the opposite side, which is arranged in the second direction and is a second pulley group 652, for holding the material tray. Each second transfer device is provided with a second transfer drive source, which is a second motor 653, for driving the second pulley group 652. The operation of the second pulley group 652 can assist in conveying the material tray with the operated electronic components to the receiving pulley group 43 of the receiving temporary area 42 of the receiving device 40. In addition, a second limiting frame 654 is provided on the opposite side of the two second side frames 651 in the third direction to assist in limiting the material tray to move smoothly in the Z direction.
[0048] The second displacement driver of the second displacement unit is a second pressure cylinder 661 configured in a first direction (such as the X direction). The second pressure cylinder 661 is connected to a second side frame 651 by a piston rod. The second displacement unit has a second linkage 662 configured in the first direction and consisting of a pulley assembly between the two second side frames 651. The second linkage 662 is connected to the two second side frames 651 by two second linkage members 663, so that one second side frame 651 can use the second linkage 662 to drive the other second side frame 651 to move closer or further away from each other in the X direction to adjust its position.
[0049] The tray carrier of the tray carrier mechanism includes a transfer platform 671 and a bracket 672. The transfer platform 671 is capable of displacement in a first direction below the first and second transfer mechanisms. The bracket 672 is disposed on the transfer platform 671 and is capable of displacement in a third direction to move the tray into or out of the first and second transfer mechanisms. Furthermore, the tray carrier mechanism is provided with a first tray driver 673 and a second tray driver 674. The first tray driver 673 can drive the transfer platform 671 in the first direction, and the second tray driver 674 can drive the bracket 672 to move in a third direction.
[0050] The tray path of the tray mechanism is in the first direction. The first tray driver 673 includes a motor and a transmission assembly. The motor drives the transmission assembly, which is configured in the first direction and is a pulley assembly. The transmission assembly is connected to the base 6711 of the transfer table 671 to drive the transfer table 671 to move in the X direction below the first and second transfer mechanisms. The second tray driver 674 is a pressure cylinder configured in the third direction. The pressure cylinder is located between the transfer table 671 and the base 6711, and its piston rod extends through the transfer table 671 and connects to the bracket 672 to drive the bracket 672 to move in or out of the tray in the first and second transfer mechanisms.
[0051] The intermediary device 60 further includes at least one empty tray mechanism, which is provided with at least one tray carrier 68. The tray carrier is capable of transferring an empty tray from one transfer mechanism to the tray carrier 68, and transferring an empty tray from the tray carrier 68 to another transfer mechanism.
[0052] Please see Figures 5-10The feeding device 30's feeding pulley assembly 33 and feeding tray (not shown) transport the tray 71 containing the electronic component to be tested from the feeding tray area 31 through the feeding tray temporary area 32 and input it onto the first pulley assembly 622 of the first transfer mechanism of the intermediate device 60 for feeding. Since the feeding tray temporary area 32 has not yet held a tray, the feeding pulley assembly 33 can first transport the next tray 71A containing the electronic component to be tested to the feeding tray temporary area 32 for preparation, thereby shortening the feeding time and quickly supplying the next tray 71A to the first transfer mechanism. The first transferor 53 of the working device 50 takes out the electronic component to be tested from the tray 71 of the first transfer mechanism and transfers it to the second transferor 54. The second transferor 54 carries the electronic component to be tested to one side of the test stand 52. The third transferor 55 takes out the electronic component to be tested from the second transferor 54 and moves it into the test stand 52 to perform the test operation. It then transfers the tested electronic component to the fourth transferor 56. The fourth transferor 56 removes the tested electronic component so that the fifth transferor 57 can take it out and transfer it to the tray 71B on the second pulley group 652 of the second transfer mechanism for receiving. When the tray 71B is full of tested electronic components, the second pulley group 652 conveys the tray 71B to the receiving pulley group 43 of the receiving temporary area 42 of the receiving device 40 for temporary placement. The receiving pulley group 43 then conveys the tray 71B from the receiving temporary area 42 to the receiving area 41 for collection.
[0053] After the first pallet conveying mechanism holds an empty pallet 71, the first pallet driver 673 of the pallet carrying mechanism drives the transfer table 671 to move the bracket 672 and the second pallet driver 674 in the X direction simultaneously to below the pallet 71 of the first pallet conveying mechanism. The second pallet driver 674 then drives the bracket 672 to move upward in the Z direction to hold the empty pallet 71. The first pallet conveying mechanism uses the piston rod of the first pressure cylinder 631 to drive a first side frame 621 and a first pulley group 622 to move outward in the X direction, away from the other first side frame 621 and the other first pulley group 622. 22, and using the first linkage 632 to drive the other first side frame 621 and the other first pulley group 622 to move outward in the X direction, so that the two first side frames 621 move away from each other and adjust the distance between them to allow the empty tray 71 to pass through; the second tray driver 674 of the tray mechanism can then drive the bracket 672 to move downward in the Z direction, and through the first through hole 613 of the first frame 61, thereby unloading the empty tray 71 of the first tray conveying mechanism, so that the feeding device 30 can quickly supply the next tray 71A of the tray temporary area 32 to the first tray conveying mechanism for feeding.
[0054] According to the operational requirements, if the tray supported by the second pulley group 652 of the second tray conveying mechanism is not yet full of tested electronic components, the first tray driver 673 of the tray carrying mechanism can drive the transfer stage 671 to move the bracket 672, the second tray driver 674 and the empty tray 71 in the X direction to move to the bottom of the tray holder 68 of the empty tray mechanism. The second tray driver 674 drives the bracket 672 to move upward in the Z direction to transfer the empty tray 71 to the tray holder 68 for temporary placement. When the second tray conveying mechanism needs to replenish the tray, the tray carrying mechanism can shorten the replenishment stroke and quickly replenish the empty tray on the empty tray mechanism to the second tray conveying mechanism.
[0055] If the second pallet transport mechanism has unloaded a tray 71B containing a tested electronic component, the first pallet driver 673 of the pallet transport mechanism drives the transfer stage 671 to move the bracket 672, the second pallet driver 674, and the empty tray 71 synchronously in the X direction to below the second pallet transport mechanism. The second pallet transport mechanism drives a second side frame 651 and the second pulley group 652 mounted on it to move outward in the X direction by the piston rod of the second pressure cylinder 661, moving it away from the other second side frame 651 and the other second pulley group 652. The second linkage 662 drives the other second side frame 651 and the other second pulley group 652 to move outward in the opposite X direction, so that the two second side frames 651 move away from each other and adjust their distance to allow the empty tray 71 to pass through. The second pallet driver 674 of the pallet transport mechanism can then drive the bracket 672 to move upward in the Z direction to carry the empty tray 71 through the second through hole of the second frame 64. The second displacement unit is located above the second pallet conveying mechanism. The piston rod of the second pressure cylinder 661 drives a second side frame 651 and the second pulley group 652 mounted thereon to move inward in the X direction, so that they are close to another second side frame 651 and another second pulley group 652. The second linkage 662 drives the other second side frame 651 and the other second pulley group 652 to move inward in the opposite X direction, so that the two second side frames 651 move closer to each other and narrow their distance, so that the two second pulley groups 652 are located below the empty pallet 71. The second pallet driver 674 of the pallet carrying mechanism drives the bracket 672 to move downward in the Z direction, so as to lift the empty pallet 71 and place it on the second pulley group 652 to replenish the pallet. Then the bracket 672 continues to move downward in the Z direction through the second through hole 643 of the second frame 64 and is located below the second pallet conveying mechanism, so that the second pallet conveying mechanism can quickly replenish the pallet for material collection.
