[0049] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0050] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another component, it can be fixed or set on the other component directly or indirectly. When a component is referred to as being "connected to" another component, it can be directly or indirectly connected to the other component.

[0051] The technical personnel of this application found that in the process of designing and manufacturing automated assembly equipment for users, the issues that have to be considered are the area and shape. The site provided by the user is often limited, which often requires the overall layout design of the equipment to be modified. In addition, the existing design also has the problem of low site utilization, as well as scattered and uncentralized equipment, long process transfer paths, and low efficiency.

[0052] The technicians of the present application also found that although the needs of users can be met to a certain extent by combining various types and forms of processes, the adaptation rate is very low and the adaptability of different users is very poor. Therefore, it is urgent to find a design that can configure processes more flexibly and reduce the floor space.

[0053] like Figure 1 and Fig.10 As shown, the embodiment of the present application first provides a device automated assembly equipment 100 for dispensing glue between a first component 00A and a second component 00B, and bonding and assembling the first component 00A and the second component 00B to obtain a semi-finished device.

[0054] Specifically, Figure 1As shown, the device automated assembly equipment 100 includes: a first feeding module 1, a second feeding module 2, a steering wheel assembly 3, a first turntable assembly 4, a second turntable assembly 5, and a dispensing module 6. Among them, the first feeding module 1 is used to convey the first component 00A, and the second feeding module 2 is used to convey the second component 00B; the steering wheel assembly 3 is rotatably mounted on the platform 00D, which is arranged at the end of the first feeding module 1, and the steering wheel assembly 3 is used to receive the first component 00A from the first feeding module 1, and drive the first component 00A to rotate through a certain angle; the first turntable assembly 4 is rotatably mounted on the platform 00D, and is used to receive the second component 00B from the second feeding module 2, and drive the second component 00B to rotate; the dispensing module 6 is arranged on the platform 00D and is located on the periphery of the first turntable assembly 4, and is used to dispensing glue on the first turntable assembly 4. The second component 00B on the disk assembly 4 is glued, that is, when the first turntable assembly 4 drives the second component 00B thereon to rotate to the position corresponding to the glue dispensing module 6, the glue dispensing module 6 starts to work and glues the second component 00B; the second turntable assembly 5 is rotatably installed on the platform 00D, and is used to receive the first component 00A from the steering wheel assembly 3. The second turntable assembly 5 drives the first component 00A to continue to rotate until the first component 00A reaches the position corresponding to the second component 00B after glue dispensing. At this corresponding position, the second component 00B after glue dispensing can be bonded to the first component 00A.

[0055] The device automated assembly equipment 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application uses a steering wheel assembly 3 to transfer and load the first component 00A between the first loading module 1 and the second turntable assembly 5. The steering wheel assembly 3 allows the first component 00A to be reversed up to 360 degrees, so that the arrangement position, loading method, etc. of the first loading module 1 can be flexibly set. The setting of the first loading module 1 does not have to be limited to the relative relationship between the position of receiving the first component 00A on the second turntable assembly 5 and the position of bonding with the second component 00B, nor does it have to consider the position of the first turntable assembly 4 and the second loading module 2. It can flexibly adapt to the user's site conditions and meet site requirements.

[0056] In contrast, assuming that the steering wheel assembly 3 of the present application is not used, the second turntable assembly 5 directly receives the first component 00A from the first loading module 1. Therefore, the position where the first component 00A is transferred between the second turntable assembly 5 and the first loading module 1 should maintain a certain distance from the position where the second component 00B is transferred between the second turntable assembly 5 and the first turntable assembly 4. In this way, the layout position of the first loading module 1 is subject to certain restrictions. Generally speaking, the loading module (including the first loading module 1 and the second loading module 2) needs to maintain continuous loading of a large amount of materials. In order to store or carry a large amount of materials, the loading module will occupy a larger volume and area. If a large-volume loading module can only be arranged within a limited range, it is easy to cause the overall occupied area to be larger.

[0057] In addition, the first loading module 1 cooperates with the second turntable assembly 5, and the second loading module 2 cooperates with the first turntable assembly 4. The first loading module 1 needs to avoid the first turntable assembly 4, the second loading module 2, the gluing module 6, etc., and the second loading module 2 needs to avoid the second turntable assembly 5, the gluing module 6, etc. When the steering wheel assembly 3 of the present application is not used, this will easily make the first loading module 1 and the second loading module 2 farther apart, further increasing the overall occupied area; in addition, the operator also needs to provide the first component 00A to the first loading module 1 and the second component 00B to the second loading module 2 at two positions far apart, which also increases the operation time and working distance for the operator.

[0058] Therefore, in the device automated assembly equipment 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the position of the first loading module 1 can be designed more flexibly to adapt to the user's site requirements, which is beneficial to reducing the overall occupied area of ​​the device automated assembly equipment 100 and improving the overall integration.

[0059] The types of the first component 00A and the second component 00B are not limited, and can be any components that need to be assembled together by dispensing. For example, Fig.10 As shown, the first component 00A may be a base of the inductor, and the second component 00B may be a cover of the inductor.

[0060] The platform 00D is a fixed, relatively flat bearing structure, which is used to install at least the steering wheel assembly 3, the first turntable assembly 4, the second turntable assembly 5 and the dispensing module 6. The first feeding module 1 and the second feeding module 2 can also be installed as a whole on the platform 00D as needed.

[0061] In addition, the platform 00D can be set to have a certain height, and the upper surface of the platform 00D is used to set the steering wheel assembly 3, the first turntable assembly 4, and the second turntable assembly 5. On the platform 00D, a third driving mechanism (not shown) for driving the steering wheel assembly 3 to rotate, a first driving mechanism (not shown) for driving the first turntable assembly 4 to rotate, and a second driving mechanism (not shown) for driving the second turntable assembly 5 to rotate, etc. can also be set. The types of the first driving mechanism, the second driving mechanism and the third driving mechanism are not limited, and they can independently select electric driving parts, pneumatic driving parts, hydraulic driving parts, etc. according to needs.

[0062] Please continue reading Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the first loading module 1 is used to transport the first component 00A along the first direction, so the first loading module 1 includes a straight rail 13, and the transportation track of the straight rail 13 is a straight line. The steering wheel assembly 3 is arranged at the end of the straight rail 13.

[0063] For ease of description and understanding, a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to each other are defined on the surface of the platform 00D. In addition, a third direction is also defined, and the third direction is perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction. In a specific application, the first direction and the second direction are horizontal directions, and the third direction can be a vertical direction. However, this is only an example and understanding, and does not mean that the device automated assembly equipment 100 must be used according to the direction definition.

[0064] The straight rail 13 usually has a large length and a small width. By arranging the steering wheel assembly 3 between the straight rail 13 and the second turntable assembly 5, the straight rail 13 can be arranged as close to the first turntable assembly 4 as possible. In this way, the space on the side of the connecting line between the first turntable assembly 4 and the second turntable assembly 5 can be reasonably utilized.

[0065] In one embodiment, the rotational central axes of the first turntable assembly 4, the second turntable assembly 5 and the steering wheel assembly 3 are all parallel to the third direction, that is, the first turntable assembly 4, the second turntable assembly 5 and the steering wheel assembly 3 are all rotated in the horizontal plane. This design can ensure that the transportation of the first component 00A and the second component 00B is more stable, and avoid the problem of the first component 00A and the second component 00B tilting and falling. At the same time, the horizontally arranged first component 00A and the second component 00B can be fixed and limited in a simpler way during the transfer process.

[0066] More specifically, the first component 00A is aligned with the second component 00B after dispensing in the axial direction of the second turntable assembly 5, and this position roughly passes through the line connecting the center of the first turntable assembly 4 and the center of the second turntable assembly 5. On this basis, the first direction may have a smaller angle with the line connecting the center of the first turntable assembly 4 and the center of the second turntable assembly 5.

[0067] In an optional embodiment, according to the diameter size relationship between the first turntable assembly 4, the second turntable assembly 5 and the steering wheel assembly 3, the angle between the first direction and the line connecting the center of the first turntable assembly 4 and the center of the second turntable assembly 5 can be less than or equal to 30 degrees, so as to minimize the large-angle deflection of the straight rail 13 relative to the first turntable assembly 4 and the second turntable assembly 5.

[0068] Further optionally, the angle between the first direction and the line connecting the center of the first turntable assembly 4 and the center of the second turntable assembly 5 can be less than or equal to 20 degrees; further optionally, the angle can be less than or equal to 15 degrees; further optionally, the angle can be less than or equal to 10 degrees; the angle can be less than or equal to 5 degrees.

[0069] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 1As shown, the angle between the first direction and the line connecting the center of the first turntable assembly 4 and the center of the second turntable assembly 5 can be 0 degrees, that is, the first direction is parallel to the line connecting the center of the first turntable assembly 4 and the center of the second turntable assembly 5.

[0070] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the diameters of the first turntable assembly 4 and the second turntable assembly 5 can be equal. In this embodiment, the first direction is parallel to the line connecting the center of the first turntable assembly 4 and the center of the second turntable assembly 5, so that the straight track 13 can be as close to the first turntable assembly 4 and the second turntable assembly 5 as possible. Since the steering wheel assembly 3 only plays the role of steering at the end of the straight track 13, its diameter can be small and will not obviously occupy the space between the straight track 13 and the second turntable assembly 5. In fact, compared with the first turntable assembly 4 and the second turntable assembly 5, the area of ​​the steering wheel assembly 3 can be ignored.

[0071] Alternatively, in another embodiment, according to the number of processes arranged around the first turntable assembly 4 and the second turntable assembly 5, the diameter of the second turntable assembly 5 may be smaller than the diameter of the first turntable assembly 4. Thus, when the second direction is parallel to the line connecting the center of the first turntable assembly 4 and the center of the second turntable assembly 5, there is still space between the straight rail 13 and the second turntable assembly 5 in the second direction, and a part of the steering wheel assembly 3 is arranged in the space. By such an arrangement, the space on one side of the first turntable assembly 4 and the second turntable assembly 5 can be further reasonably utilized.

[0072] Of course, in order to facilitate receiving the first component 00A transported from the straight rail 13, a portion of the steering wheel assembly 3 is aligned with the straight rail 13 in the first direction, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown.

[0073] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the line connecting the center of the steering wheel assembly 3 and the center of the second turntable assembly 5 has a small angle with the second direction, such as less than or equal to 30 degrees. In this way, the steering wheel assembly 3 will not deviate too much in the first direction relative to the second turntable assembly 5, thereby reducing the overall volume and floor space of the device automated assembly equipment 100. At the same time, this also facilitates the transfer of the first component 00A between the steering wheel assembly 3 and the straight rail 13 and the second turntable assembly 5.

[0074] In an optional embodiment, the line connecting the center of the steering wheel assembly 3 and the center of the second turntable assembly 5 is parallel to the second direction. In this way, in the device automated assembly equipment 100, the straight rail 13, the steering wheel assembly 3 and the second turntable assembly 5 are arranged in a substantially regular triangle, occupying a smaller area, and providing convenience for the arrangement of other modules around them.

[0075] Also, see Figure 1 As shown, the first loading module 1 also includes a first translation assembly 11, which is arranged on the platform 00D, used to carry the loading tray 12, and can move along two mutually perpendicular directions on the surface of the platform 00D to transfer the first components 00A arranged in the loading tray 12 to the straight rail 13 in sequence.

[0076] Optionally, the first translation assembly 11 is configured to be movable in a first direction and a second direction. The first translation assembly 11 moves in the second direction so that the loading tray 12 carried thereon can be aligned with the straight rail 13. Then, the first translation assembly 11 moves in the first direction so as to push the first component 00A on the loading tray 12 in the first direction, and then, the first component 00A can directly enter the straight rail 13 and continue to be transported. The specific structure of the first translation assembly 11 is not described in detail.

[0077] The first translation assembly 11 is arranged at the starting end of the straight rail 13, and the position of the first translation assembly 11 does not affect the arrangement of the first turntable assembly 4 and the second turntable assembly 5. The first translation assembly 11 has certain dimensions in both the first direction and the second direction, and is relatively regular as a whole, with a smaller overall footprint and higher loading efficiency.

[0078] In particular, for devices with electronic precision components such as windings, resistors, pins, etc., such as the base of the inductor mentioned above, the loading method using a loading tray 12, a first translation assembly 11 and a straight rail 13 can ensure that the first component 00A is loaded in a specific orientation while avoiding damage to the first component 00A, thereby ensuring the qualified rate of the assembled devices.

[0079] See also Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the steering wheel assembly 3 includes a steering wheel 31 and a first fixture 32 arranged on the steering wheel 31. The steering wheel 31 is rotatably mounted on the platform 00D. The first fixture 32 is mounted on the steering wheel 31. The first fixture 32 is used to receive and fix the first component 00A, and as the steering wheel 31 rotates, the first component 00A rotates toward the second turntable assembly 5.

[0080] The edge of the steering wheel assembly 3 is partially aligned with the edge of the second turntable assembly 5 in the third direction, and the aligned position is used for the first component 00A to be transferred from the steering wheel 31 to the second turntable assembly 5. In the third direction, the second turntable assembly 5 can be arranged higher than the steering wheel 31 to facilitate the upward transfer of the first component 00A.

[0081] The type of the first fixture 32 is not limited. For example, the first fixture 32 may be a clamp that picks up the first component 00A by clamping both ends of the first component 00A. Alternatively, the first fixture 32 picks up the first component 00A by vacuum adsorption.

[0082] Or, if Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the first fixture 32 includes a fixture body 321 and an adsorption head 322. The fixture body 321 is fixed on the steering wheel 31. The upper surface of the fixture body 321 is provided with a receiving groove 3210. The receiving groove 3210 is connected to the radial outer edge of the first fixture 32. One end of the adsorption head 322 is connected to the air extraction mechanism (not shown) through a hose, and the air inlet of the adsorption head 322 is aligned with the radial inner end of the receiving groove 3210. The swing needle of the straight rail 13 pushes the first component 00A forward. Under the action of the swing needle, the first component 00A can directly enter the receiving groove 3210. Under the action of air suction, the first component 00A is stably maintained in the receiving groove 3210. Then, the first turntable 41 rotates so that the first fixture 32 reaches the position below the second turntable assembly 5. After the second turntable assembly 5 picks up the first component 00A from the first fixture 32, the steering wheel 31 and the first fixture 32 rotate in the opposite direction and return to the position aligned with the straight rail 13. In this way, the transfer of the first component 00A from the straight rail 13 to the second turntable assembly 5 is realized.

[0083] By using the first fixture 32 with the accommodating groove 3210 and the adsorption head 322, it is not necessary to set up complex and high-power power parts like the clamp and the suction nozzle. The arrangement of the adsorption head 322 and the hose only needs to occupy a small space, and the air extraction mechanism can be arranged under the platform 00D, etc. In this way, energy consumption is saved and space occupation is reduced, and further, the steering wheel assembly 3 can be ensured to have a smaller volume and floor space.

[0084] See also Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the second turntable assembly 5 includes a second turntable 51 and a plurality of second fixtures 52. The second turntable 51 is rotatably arranged on the platform 00D. The second fixtures 52 are evenly arranged on the second turntable 51 along the circumference of the second turntable 51 and rotate with the second turntable assembly 5. The second fixtures 52 are used to pick up and fix the first component 00A from the first fixture 32.

[0085] The angle of each rotation of the second turntable 51 is equal to the central angle of two adjacent second fixtures 52. Therefore, during the rotation of the second turntable 51, each second fixture 52 is aligned with the first component 00A in turn, so that one first component 00A can be picked up in turn.

[0086] Since the first component 00A is carried on the upper surface of the first jig 32, and the second jig 52 picks up the first component 00A from above the first jig 32, the second jig 52 is preferably configured to maintain a certain height difference with the first jig 32 when the first component 00A is not picked up to avoid mutual influence with the first jig 32, and to move downward and close to the first jig 32 when picking up the first component 00A.

[0087] The technical personnel of the present application have devoted a lot of effort to the movement of the second fixture 52 in the third direction and the picking action of the second fixture 52. Generally speaking, in order to realize the overall downward movement and picking action of the second fixture 52, two sets of driving mechanisms are provided, the first set of driving mechanisms is used to drive the second set of driving mechanisms and the second fixture 52 to move downward as a whole, and the second set of driving mechanisms is used to drive the second fixture 52 to perform the picking action. That is to say, in the prior art, two sets of driving mechanisms corresponding to the second fixture 52 are provided.

[0088] The technical personnel of this application are committed to studying how to reduce the number of structures, simplify the structural layout, reduce power consumption, etc., and creatively put forward the following solutions.

[0089] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the second turntable assembly 5 further includes a fourth driving mechanism 53, and the fourth driving mechanism 53 is used to drive the second fixture 52 to move downward and drive the second fixture 52 to perform a picking action.

[0090] First, see Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the fourth driving mechanism 53 includes a first motor 531 and a first transmission member 533, and the second fixture 52 includes a first support 521, a moving shaft 522, a first reset member 523, a second reset member 524, a third reset member 525, and one or more clamps 526; wherein the first support 521 is slidably arranged on the second rotating disk 51 along the third direction, and the first reset member 523 is arranged between the first support 521 and the second rotating disk 51 to provide a force for the first support 521 to move upward; the moving shaft 522 is slidably arranged on the first support 521 along the third direction; the second reset member 524 is arranged on the moving shaft 52 2 and the first support 521, used to provide a force for the moving shaft 522 to move upward; a groove is provided on the outer circumference of the moving shaft 522, the first end of the clamping jaw 526 is rotatably mounted on the first support 521, the rotation center axis of the clamping jaw 526 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the second turntable 51, the first end of the clamping jaw 526 is slidably connected with the outer circumference of the moving shaft 522 along the third direction, the second ends of the clamping jaws 526 are close to each other, used to clamp the first component 00A, the third reset member 525 is arranged between the first end of the clamping jaw 526 and the first support 521, used to provide a force for the first end of the clamping jaw 526 to move close to the moving shaft 522. The upper end of the first transmission member 533 is connected to the output shaft of the first motor 531, and the lower end is used to abut against the first support 521 and the moving shaft 522, and is used to convert the torque output by the output shaft of the first motor 531 into the reciprocating movement of the first support 521 along the third direction, and the reciprocating movement of the moving shaft 522 along the third direction.

[0091] When the first motor 531 rotates, the first transmission member 533 rotates and pushes the first support 521 to move downward, and the first support 521 drives the moving shaft 522, the second reset member 524, the third reset member 525, and the clamping jaw 526 thereon to move downward synchronously, and at the same time, the first reset member 523 is compressed, and the lower end of the clamping jaw 526 gradually approaches the first fixture 32, and the clamping jaw 526 maintains the clamping state. The first motor 531 continues to rotate, the first transmission member 533 rotates, and also pushes the moving shaft 522 to move downward, and the first end of the clamping jaw 526 enters the groove, so that the other end of the clamping jaw 526 deflects outward, so that the clamping jaw 526 is in an open state. After the clamping jaws 526 are located on both sides of the first component 00A, the first motor 531 continues to rotate, and the first transmission member 533 no longer presses down the movable shaft 522. Under the action of the second reset member 524 and the third reset member 525, the movable shaft 522 returns upward relative to the first support 521, and the first end of the clamping jaw 526 disengages from the groove, and the second end of the clamping jaw 526 deflects inward, so as to clamp the first component 00A; the first motor 531 continues to rotate, and the first transmission member 533 no longer presses down the first support 521. Under the action of the first reset member 523, the clamping jaw 526 continues to maintain the state of clamping the first component 00A, moves upward together with the first support 521, and moves away from the first fixture 32.

[0092] In this way, two actions of the second fixture 52 are simultaneously realized through one set of driving mechanisms. Moreover, only one set of the fourth driving mechanism 53 is required on the entire second turntable assembly 5, which can significantly reduce the number of driving mechanisms, and reduce the weight and power consumption of the driving mechanisms. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the second turntable assembly 5 further includes a first support member 57, which is fixedly disposed on the platform 00D, and a first motor 531 is fixed on the first support member 57. When each second fixture 52 rotates with the second turntable 51, the fourth driving mechanism 53 is aligned with the second fixture 52 in sequence.

[0093] like Figure 5 As shown, the first transmission member 533 includes a transmission body 5331, a second support (not shown), a first connecting rod 5337 and a second connecting rod 5338, the second support is fixedly arranged on the first support member 57, the transmission body 5331 is connected to the output shaft of the first motor 531, the transmission body 5331 is provided with a first guide surface 5332 and a second guide surface 5333, both of which are helical surfaces around the output shaft of the first motor 531, the first connecting rod 5337 and the second connecting rod 5338 are configured to be slidably arranged on the second support along the third direction, the upper end of the first connecting rod 5337 is configured to slide along the first guiding surface 5332, and the upper end of the second connecting rod 5338 is configured to slide along the second guiding surface 5333. In this way, when the transmission body 5331 rotates, the ups and downs of the first guiding surface 5332 and the second guiding surface 5333 in the third direction will be converted into the movement of the first connecting rod 5337 and the second connecting rod 5338 in the third direction. The first connecting rod 5337 is used to push the first support 521 to move downward, and the second connecting rod 5338 is used to push the moving shaft 522 to move downward.

[0094] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, the two clamping jaws 526 are arranged at intervals along the radial direction of the second rotating disk 51. The purpose of such arrangement is that when the first fixture 32 is aligned with the second fixture 52, the two clamping jaws 526 can avoid the raised parts on both sides of the receiving groove 3210 and hold the first component 00A from the inside and outside of the first component 00A. In this way, the movement of the two clamping jaws 526 will not be interfered by the first fixture 32.

[0095] After the second fixture 52 clamps the first component 00A, it drives the first component 00A to continue rotating until it is aligned with the second component 00B in the third direction. At this time, the second fixture 52 is driven to move downward to form a bond between the first component 00A and the glued second component 00B.

[0096] Here, the technical personnel of the present application have proposed an innovative design. When the first component 00A is aligned with the second component 00B after dispensing in the third direction, the second fixture 52 does not need to release the first component 00A, but relies on the bonding force between the first component 00A and the second component 00B, and picks up the second component 00B in the form of driving the second component 00B upward. At this time, the first component 00A and the second component 00B bonded together are defined as semi-finished devices, and the second fixture 52 continues to drive the semi-finished device to move and perform subsequent processes, such as unloading.

[0097] The advantage of this design is that the second fixture 52 and the second turntable 51 can continue to be used, and the semi-finished device does not need to be rotated to the side of the first turntable 41 close to the straight rail 13. Therefore, there is no need to reserve a large space between the straight rail 13 and the first turntable assembly 4 for the process, which improves the utilization rate of the second fixture 52. In addition, the semi-finished device located below the clamping jaw 526 can be unloaded by falling downward, which is a simpler unloading method and does not require other swing arms or clamping unloading mechanisms, which can further reduce components, reduce the overall volume of the equipment, and improve the integration of the equipment.

[0098] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the second turntable assembly 5 also includes a fifth driving mechanism 55, which is arranged on the first support member 57 and close to the first turntable 41, and is used to drive the second fixture 52 aligned with the second component 00B after dispensing to move downward without opening the clamping jaws 526.

[0099] Specifically, the structure of the fifth driving mechanism 55 is simplified compared to the fourth driving mechanism 53. For example, in the fifth driving mechanism 55, the second transmission member 552 only needs to be provided with a third guide surface 5520 inclined relative to the output shaft of the second motor 551. The third guide surface 5520 is used to convert the rotation of the second motor 551 into the downward movement of the first support 521.

[0100] Depending on the type of the second component 00B, the second loading module 2 can have different forms of loading methods. In one embodiment, the second loading module 2 includes a vibration plate 21, which can arrange the second component 00B in a certain way. Figure 1 As shown, the second loading module 2 further includes a swing arm mechanism 22, which is disposed between the vibration plate 21 and the first turntable assembly 4, and is used to clamp the second component 00B from the end of the vibration plate 21 and place the second component 00B on the first turntable assembly 4. The swing arm mechanism 22 also allows the second loading module 2 to be tilted at a certain angle to the first turntable assembly 4, thereby facilitating the flexible setting of the position of the second loading module 2.

[0101] In order to reasonably utilize the space and facilitate the loading of the second component 00B, in one embodiment, in the second direction, the second loading module 2 and the first turntable assembly 4 are arranged on the same side of the straight rail 13; in the first direction, the second loading module 2 is arranged on the side of the first turntable assembly 4 away from the second turntable 51. In this way, the space around the first loading module 1 near the first turntable assembly 4 is utilized.

[0102] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first turntable assembly 4 includes a first turntable 41 and a plurality of third fixtures 42 arranged on the first turntable 41. The first turntable 41 is rotatably arranged on the platform 00D, and each third fixture 42 is evenly and fixedly distributed along the circumference of the first turntable 41. The third fixture 42 is used to carry the second component 00B. In this way, as the first turntable 41 rotates, the swing arm mechanism 22 places the second component 00B on the third fixture 42 in turn, and then the first turntable 41 drives each second component 00B to rotate through the third fixture 42, and successively reaches a position aligned with the glue dispensing module 6, and the glue dispensing module 6 dispenses glue to each second component 00B in turn. In the third direction, the glue dispensing module 6 is arranged above each third fixture 42 to dispense glue to the upper surface of each second component 00B.

[0103] In one embodiment, the first fixture 32 is also used to clamp and fix the first component 00A. Figure 6 As shown, the first turntable assembly 4 further includes a sixth driving mechanism 43, and the sixth driving mechanism 43 is used to drive the third fixture 42 to open and close.

[0104] Regarding the arrangement of the sixth drive mechanism 43, the technicians of the present application have thought that, in order to reduce the number of structures and power consumption, the sixth drive mechanism 43 does not need to be arranged one by one corresponding to the third fixture 42. The sixth drive mechanism 43 can be optionally arranged at the position where the second component 00B reaches the first turntable assembly 4 and the position where it leaves the first turntable assembly 4.

[0105] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first turntable assembly 4 includes a second support member 45 and two sixth drive mechanisms 43. The second support member 45 is fixedly arranged on the platform 00D, and the first turntable 41 is rotatably arranged on the second support member 45. The two sixth drive mechanisms 43 are fixedly arranged on the second support member 45, and are used to drive the rotating third fixture 42 to control the opening and closing of the third fixture 42, that is, to clamp, fix or release the second component 00B on each third fixture 42.

[0106] Specifically, one of the sixth driving mechanisms 43 is disposed at a position opposite to the swing arm mechanism 22, and is used to drive a third fixture 42 opposite to the swing arm mechanism 22 to open, so that each second component 00B can be placed on the third fixture 42 after being loaded by the swing arm mechanism 22, and then the sixth driving mechanism 43 reversely drives the third fixture 42 to close. In this way, each second component 00B is clamped on the third fixture 42 after being loaded by the swing arm mechanism 22.

[0107] Under the clamping and fixing of the third fixture 42, the second component 00B rotates with the first turntable 41 and performs subsequent processes. When the second component 00B completes some processes, another sixth driving mechanism 43 drives the third fixture 42 to open to release the second component 00B. At this time, other operations can be performed on the second component 00B.

[0108] Another sixth driving mechanism 43 may be arranged at a position opposite to the second rotating disk 51, so as to open the third jig 42 when the first component 00A and the second component 00B are aligned in the third direction. Referring to the above, at this time, after the second jig 52 drives the first component 00A to rotate to align with the second component 00B after the dispensing of glue, the fifth driving mechanism 55 drives the second jig 52 to move downward, and the first component 00A is bonded to the second component 00B after the dispensing of glue. After the sixth driving mechanism 43 drives the third jig 42 to open, the second component 00B is allowed to rise and continue to rotate with the first component 00A and the second jig 52 in a manner of being bonded below the first component 00A.

[0109] Specifically, see Figure 7 As shown, the sixth driving mechanism 43 includes a third motor 431 and an eccentric wheel 432. The third motor 431 is fixedly arranged on the second support member 45. The eccentric wheel 432 is connected to the output shaft of the third motor 431, and the output shaft of the third motor 431 is parallel to the rotation center axis of the first turntable 41. The third fixture 42 includes a fixed block 421 and a movable block 425. The fixed block 421 is fixedly arranged on the first turntable 41. The movable block 425 is rotatably installed on the first turntable 41. The rotation center axis of the movable block 425 is parallel to the rotation center axis of the first turntable 41. The first end of the movable block 425 is used to contact the eccentric wheel 432. A clamping space for holding the second component 00B is formed between the second end of the movable block 425 and the fixed block 421. As shown Figure 7As shown, a fourth reset member 426, such as a spring, is provided between the first end of the movable block 425 and the fixed block 421. When the third motor 431 drives the eccentric wheel 432 to rotate, the first end of the eccentric wheel 432 and the movable block 425 contact each other, and the eccentric wheel 432 can squeeze the first end of the movable block 425 toward the fixed block 421, so that the movable block 425 deflects around its central axis. At this time, the second end of the movable block 425 is away from the fixed block 421, and the clamping space between the second end and the fixed block 421 is expanded, allowing the swing arm mechanism 22 to place the second component 00B. Then, the third motor 431 continues to drive the eccentric wheel 432 to rotate, and the eccentric wheel 432 no longer squeezes the first end of the movable block 425. The movable block 425 automatically resets under the action of the fourth reset member 426, so that the second end of the movable block 425 and the fixed block 421 clamp and fix the second component 00B together.

[0110] like Figure 7 As shown, the eccentric wheel 432 may be provided with a roller 433 for rolling contact with the first end of the movable block 425 to reduce friction.

[0111] At the joint between the first rotating disk 41 and the second rotating disk 51 , the eccentric wheel 432 of another sixth driving mechanism 43 squeezes the movable block 425 so that the movable block 425 moves away from the fixed block 421 and releases the second component 00B.

[0112] Then, see Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the device automated assembly equipment 100 also includes at least one first image detection module 71, which is fixedly disposed on the platform 00D and located on the periphery of the first turntable 41. The first image detection module 71 is used to perform image detection on the second component 00B to determine whether the appearance, surface, etc. of the second component 00B are intact and clean.

[0113] Optionally, the first image detection module 71 can be arranged before the glue dispensing module 6, or after the glue dispensing module 6, or before and after the glue dispensing module 6 at the same time. The first image detection module 71 is arranged before the glue dispensing module 6, and can detect the upper surface of the second component 00B before glue dispensing to determine whether the upper surface of the second component 00B is intact and free of foreign matter. The first image detection module 71 is arranged after the glue dispensing module 6, and can detect the upper surface of the second component 00B after glue dispensing. In addition to determining that the upper surface of the second component 00B is intact and free of foreign matter, the glue dispensing situation can also be determined, such as whether the amount of glue is sufficient, whether the position is correct, etc. Preferably, the first image detection module 71 is arranged after the glue dispensing module 6. Further, the first image detection module 71 is arranged before and after the glue dispensing module 6 at the same time.

[0114] The specific setting position of the first image detection module 71 is not limited. For example, if the third direction allows, the first image detection module 71 can be set directly above the third fixture 42 to detect the upper surface of the second component 00B; if there is not enough space in the third direction, the first image detection module 71 can be set obliquely above the third fixture 42 to detect the upper surface of the second component 00B obliquely. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit this.

[0115] Since the upper surface of the second component 00B is glued, the lower end of the second fixture 52 clamps the first component 00A, and the first component 00A needs to be bonded to the second component 00B, then, in the third direction, the first turntable 41 can be optionally set to be lower than the second turntable 51. In this way, the first fixture 32 and the second fixture 52 can be aligned in a more convenient and simple way, and there is no need to set an additional lifting structure in the third direction to change the height of the first fixture 32 and the second fixture 52.

[0116] After the dispensing and image detection are completed, the first turntable 41 continues to rotate, driving the third fixture 42 and the second component 00B to a position aligned with the second fixture 52 of the second turntable assembly 5 in the third direction.

[0117] Please continue reading Figure 1 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the device automated assembly equipment 100 further includes a shaping module 73, which is arranged on the periphery of the second turntable 51, and is used to further align and press the semi-finished device to ensure that the edge alignment deviation of the first component 00A and the second component 00B can be further reduced, and the first component 00A and the second component 00B are completely fitted under a certain pressure. This is conducive to ensuring the bonding quality and appearance quality of the final finished device.

[0118] In the third direction, the shaping module 73 is arranged below the second turntable 51. A fourth driving mechanism 53 is arranged above the shaping module 73 and on the first support member 57, for driving the second fixture 52 to move downward and release the semi-finished device so that the semi-finished device can reach the upper surface of the shaping module 73 to be shaped, and then clamp the shaped semi-finished device to move.

[0119] Specifically, Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the shaping module 73 includes a fourth motor 731 , a guide support 733 , a rotating support 735 , a fifth reset member 737 and a plurality of abutment blocks 739 .

[0120] The fourth motor 731 is fixedly arranged on the platform 00D, the guide support 733 is fixedly arranged on the platform 00D, a plurality of guide grooves 7330 are arranged on the guide support 733, one end of the guide grooves 7330 are close to each other, the abutment blocks 739 can slide in the guide grooves 7330 to approach or move away, the output shaft of the fourth motor 731 is connected to the rotating support 735 to drive the rotating support 735 to rotate, the rotating support 735 is penetrated by the guide support 733, so that a plurality of guide grooves 7330 are also distributed around the rotating support 735; a plurality of guide protrusions are arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating support 735. The fifth reset member 737 is used to provide a force for each abutment block 739 to approach each other, such as the fifth reset member 737 is sleeved on the outer periphery of each abutment block 739.

[0121] When the rotating support 735 rotates with the fourth motor 731, the guide protrusion can abut against the abutment block 739 and push the abutment block 739 to move outward along the guide groove 7330. At this time, the space between the ends of the abutment blocks 739 that are close to each other is expanded, allowing the second fixture 52 to place the semi-finished device. Then, the rotating support 735 continues to rotate, and the guide protrusion is separated from the abutment block 739. Under the action of the second reset member 524, each abutment block 739 slides along the guide groove 7330 and approaches each other. The ends of the abutment blocks 739 that are close to each other can clamp the above-mentioned semi-finished device. By setting the surface of the ends of the abutment blocks 739 that are close to each other, the alignment and shaping of the edges of the first component 00A and the second component 00B can be achieved. By moving the second fixture 52 downward as a whole, a certain pressure can be applied to the first component 00A and the second component 00B.

[0122] After the shaping is completed, the abutment block 739 moves outward and releases the shaped semi-finished device, and the second fixture 52 can continue to drive the semi-finished device to rotate.

[0123] In one embodiment, the device automated assembly equipment 100 further includes a second image detection module (not shown), which is disposed on the periphery of the second turntable 51 and behind the shaping module 73, and is used to perform image detection on the semi-finished device. For example, by taking a photo of the semi-finished device, it can be determined whether the two are aligned in a predetermined manner, such as whether the edge deviation of the two exceeds the allowable range.

[0124] In one embodiment, since the second fixture 52 is located above the semi-finished device as a whole, the second image detection module can be set below the second turntable 51, specifically directly below or diagonally below. Moreover, such a setting will not increase the space occupied, because the second turntable 51 is set higher than the first turntable 41, so there is a certain vertical space below the second turntable 51. In this way, the second image detection module is set below the second turntable 51, and the space below the second turntable 51 is utilized.

[0125] See also Figure 1 As shown, the dispensing module 6 and the first image detection module 71 are arranged on the side of the first turntable 41 away from the straight rail 13. After the second component 00B is loaded from the swing arm mechanism 22, it rotates toward the side away from the straight rail 13 to complete the dispensing and image detection in sequence.

[0126] like Figure 1 As shown, the shaping module 73 and the second image detection module are arranged on the side of the second turntable 51 away from the straight rail 13. The semi-finished component is clamped by the second fixture 52 and rotates toward the side away from the straight rail 13 to complete shaping, pre-pressing and image detection in sequence. The first turntable 41 and the second turntable 51 rotate in the same direction.

[0127] The purpose of such arrangement is that each process is concentratedly arranged on the side of the first turntable 41 and the second turntable 51 away from the straight rail 13, and no process is arranged on the side of the first turntable 41 and the second turntable 51 close to the straight rail 13, so the straight rail 13 can be as close as possible to the first turntable 41 and the second turntable 51. The process is concentratedly arranged, the transfer path between the processes is short, and the transfer efficiency is high. The device automatic assembly equipment 100 has an integrated overall structure and occupies a small area.

[0128] Finally, if Figure 1 As shown, the device automated assembly equipment 100 may also include a material unloading module 75 for unloading the semi-finished device that has completed pre-pressing. Further, the device automated assembly equipment 100 may also include a baking module (not shown), which is connected to the material unloading module 75 and is used to receive the semi-finished device that has completed pre-pressing and bake the semi-finished device to solidify the glue.

[0129] like Figure 1 As shown, the unloading module 75 and the baking module can be arranged on the side of the second turntable 51 away from the first turntable 41. Specifically, the unloading module 75 can include one or more receiving trays and a second moving assembly, the receiving trays are carried on the second moving assembly, and the second moving assembly is used to drive the receiving trays to move on the surface of the platform 00D, so that each receiving tray is located below the second fixture 52, and receives the semi-finished devices after the second fixture 52 releases the semi-finished devices. In addition, the second moving assembly is configured to transport the receiving trays carrying the semi-finished devices to the baking device for baking.

[0130] The moving direction of the second moving assembly is set according to the positional relationship between the baking device and the second turntable 51. For example, the moving direction of the second moving assembly can be the first direction and the second direction, or can be inclined to the first direction and the second direction.

[0131] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
