To solve the above problems, a high-precision multi-axis transmission structure for chip transmission is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0028] Example 2

[0029] When in use, the entire device is in the initial default position, between the loading station and the inspection station, with the Y-axis component 24 of the two X-axis components 2 located at the pick-up position of the loading station and the placement position of the inspection station, respectively; between the unloading station and the inspection station, with the Y-axis component 24 of the two X-axis components 2 located at the pick-up position of the inspection station and the placement position of the unloading station, respectively.

[0030] After the chip to be tested is positioned at the loading station, the linear motors in the X-axis assembly 2 and Y-axis assembly 24 move respectively, moving the suction nozzle 37 in the chip pickup assembly above the chip to be tested. The Z-axis voice coil motor 241 moves rapidly downward until the suction nozzle 37 is about to contact the chip. Then, the chip pickup voice coil motor 36 in the chip pickup assembly 3 moves. After the suction nozzle 37 contacts the chip, it continues to move and provides force feedback. When the suction nozzle 37 contacts the chip, the vacuum is activated. Then, the chip pickup voice coil motor 36 moves upward at a certain speed, cooperating with the chip positioning device to remove the chip from the film. The chip positioning device is not shown in the figure. During the chip pickup process, the chip pickup voice coil motor 36 always maintains a constant position. With a certain force and feedback, after the chip is picked up from the thin film, the Z-axis voice coil motor 241 moves upward to the origin. The X-axis linear motor mover 21 in the X-axis assembly 2 drives the Y-axis assembly 24 to move towards the inspection station. At the same time, the Y-axis assembly 24 at the inspection station position moves towards the material loading station. When the Y-axis assembly 24 moves, the Y-axis linear motor movers 246 in the Y-axis assembly 24 move in the direction of their respective X-axis linear motors, so that when the two Y-axis assemblies 24 intersect, the chip picking components avoid each other. After the intersection, the Y-axis linear motor movers 246 in the Y-axis assembly 24 move in opposite directions, respectively towards the material loading station pickup position and the inspection station camera position (not shown in the figure). (Display) Movement: When the Y-axis assembly 24 carrying the chip moves onto the camera at the detection station, the camera takes a picture of the chip for inspection and calculates the chip's angular position. When the calculated angle deviates from the actual angle, the rotary motor 32 moves, and the synchronous pulley 39 drives the synchronous pulley shaft 316 to rotate via the synchronous belt 38 for angle compensation. The synchronous pulley shaft 316 rotates in the deep groove ball bearing 314. At the same time, the internal linear bearing 315, hollow shaft 313, quick-change pin locking nut 317, suction nozzle quick-change pin 318, and suction nozzle 37 all rotate together with the synchronous pulley shaft 316. The hollow shaft 313 cannot rotate within the linear bearing 315. The suction nozzle quick-change pin 318 is connected to the hollow shaft 313 via a zero-speed connection. The components are connected and have a positioning structure, preventing them from rotating relative to each other. After angle compensation, the chip pickup component 3 moves the chip to the detection station placement position. The Z-axis voice coil motor 241 moves downward a certain distance. When the chip is about to contact the detection station placement point, the Z-axis voice coil motor 241 stops, and the chip pickup voice coil motor 36 moves downward. When the chip contacts the placement point, it generates force feedback information, and the chip pickup voice coil motor 36 stops moving. The vacuum is disconnected, and compressed air passes through the compressed air pipe connector 34 to the hollow shaft 313, the nozzle quick-change pin 318, and the nozzle 37 to quickly separate the chip from the nozzle. The Z-axis voice coil motor 241 and the pickup voice coil motor 36 move upward, and the chip placement is completed.

[0031] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. The various components mentioned in this invention are common technologies in the existing field. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed. The scope of protection of this invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
