Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of 3C product assembly, in particular to a mobile phone FPC assembly machine. Background Art

[0002] FPC is a flexible printed circuit board, also known as a soft circuit board or soft board. FPC is a printed circuit board made of a flexible insulating substrate (mainly polyimide or polyester film). It has many advantages that rigid printed circuit boards do not have. It has high reliability, can be bent, wound, and folded freely, and can withstand millions of dynamic bending without damaging the wires. This feature allows FPC to be arbitrarily arranged according to spatial layout requirements, and to move and stretch arbitrarily in three-dimensional space, thereby realizing the integration of component assembly and wire connection. These characteristics of FPC make it very useful in the design of electronic products, especially in electronic products that require high density, miniaturization, and high reliability. With the development of science and technology, 3C products such as mobile phones have been applied to all aspects of society and play an increasingly important role in daily life. 3C products such as mobile phones need to assemble FPC during the production process.

[0003] The conventional practice of existing FPC assembly machines is to directly clamp the FPC with a clamp, move it to the side of the mobile phone to position the lower camera for taking pictures, and then fasten the camera snap points on the mainboard. Through this assembly method, during the process of fastening the FPC, the FPC may be bent too much, which may easily cause the FPC to break. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the existing problems, the present invention provides a mobile phone FPC assembly machine to solve the existing problems raised in the above background technology.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: a mobile phone FPC assembly machine, including an FPC assembly machine, wherein the interior of the FPC assembly machine is provided with a single-track and double-track switching module for loading and unloading, an FPC bending module, a film tearing module, an FPC flipping module, a side camera module, a gantry XY module and a re-inspection and NG sorting module, wherein the single-track and double-track switching module for loading and unloading includes a first mounting frame, and the outer surface of the first mounting frame is provided with a first synchronous belt module, a long side feeding track, a first stepping motor, a jacking and rotating mechanism and a round belt conveyor line, the FPC bending module includes a second stepping motor, a third stepping motor, a material picking cylinder and a second synchronous belt module, the outer surface of the material picking cylinder is provided with a suction nozzle, the outer surface of the second synchronous belt module is provided with a guide smoothing rod and a guide rod, the film tearing module includes a second mounting frame and a discarded film bin, the outer surface of the second mounting frame is provided with a synchronous belt module, and the outer surface of the synchronous belt module is provided with a lifting middle threaded rod Module, the outer surface of the lifting middle-through screw module is provided with a side insertion cylinder and a film tearing detection color sensor, the outer surface of the side insertion cylinder is provided with a first clamping claw cylinder, the FPC flipping module includes a fourth stepping motor and a third synchronous belt module, the outer surface of the third synchronous belt module is provided with a hollow rubber strip, the side camera module includes a third mounting frame and a prism, the outer surface of the third mounting frame is provided with a camera body, a screw motor and an FPC receiving plate, the gantry XY module includes a fourth mounting frame, the bottom of the fourth mounting frame is provided with a linear module Y axis, the bottom of the linear module Y axis is provided with a linear module X axis, and the bottom of the linear module X axis is provided with a first Z axis and a second Z axis, the re-inspection and NG sorting module includes a fifth mounting frame and an NG conveyor line, the outer surface of the fifth mounting frame is provided with a fifth stepping motor and a fourth synchronous belt module, and the outer surface of the fourth synchronous belt module is provided with a rotating motor, a height measuring sensor and a lifting cylinder.

[0006] Preferably, two groups of the material taking cylinder, the guide smoothing rod and the second synchronous belt module are provided.

[0010] The present invention provides a mobile phone FPC assembly machine, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] 1. The mobile phone FPC assembly machine, through the gantry XY module and the side camera module, can realize the position angle correction during the movement by using the gantry XY module, and form a pressure closed loop through the pressure sensor after the FPC contacts the fastening point to confirm whether the fastening pressure has been reached. At the same time, the side camera plus prism photography technology of the side camera module solves the difficulty of single-head FPC photography and the problem of excessive bending of FPC during photography, thereby improving the processing quality of the FPC assembly machine.

[0028] Specifically, a second clamping cylinder 806 is provided at the output end of the lifting cylinder 805 , and the second clamping cylinder 806 is arranged directly above the NG conveying line 802 .

[0029] When in use, the working mode of each module is that the long-side feeding of the product flows into the long-side feeding track 202, powered by the first stepper motor 203, flows into the round belt conveyor line 205, is lifted and rotated by the lifting and rotating mechanism 204 to become short-side feeding, and the product with changed feeding direction passes through the first synchronous belt module 201 to feed different tracks, and the discharging action is the opposite. The materials from different tracks change direction and flow out through the lifting and rotating mechanism 204. The product flows into station one through the track, and is driven by the second stepper motor 301 and the third stepper motor 302 to drive the second synchronous belt modules 307 on both sides respectively. The material taking cylinder 303 sucks the FPC obliquely, and the guide smoothing rod 305 turns the FPC over. The product flows into the guide rod 306 for constraint. This action is performed alternately, and the product flows into the second station through the track. The side cylinder side clamp positions the product, and the synchronous belt module 401 drives the first clamping cylinder 404 and the film tearing detection color sensor 406 to move left and right. When tearing the film, the synchronous belt module 401 moves the first clamping jaw body 407 on the first clamping jaw cylinder 404 to the side of the product film tearing position, and the lifting middle screw rod module 402 is lowered. The side insertion cylinder 403 inserts the first clamping jaw body 407 into the first tearing position, and the first clamping jaw cylinder 404 is closed again. The synchronous belt module 401 moves, and the film tearing detection color sensor 406 detects whether the film is torn off. The synchronous belt module 401 throws the waste film into the waste film bin 405. The two tracks perform this action alternately, and the product flows into the station through the track. Third, the FPC is separated from the guide rod 306, and the third synchronous belt module 503 driven by the fourth stepper motor 501 drives the hollow rubber strip 502 to move horizontally, and the friction between the FPC and the hollow rubber strip 502 is used to smooth the FPC, and the product flows into the third station through the track, and the camera body 601 is moved to the photo position by the screw motor 602, and the prism 603 is inserted under the FPC for taking pictures. The FPC receiving plate 604 plays the role of connecting the FPC and shaping the FPC, and the product flows into the third station through the track, and the upper camera 707 is moved to the photo point by the linear module Y axis 701 and the linear module X axis 702 for taking pictures, and the second clamp body 704 and the upper camera 707 are moved to the top of the FPC by the linear module Y axis 701, and the first Z axis 705 descends to move the FP The C steel sheet is sucked up, and the second clamp body 704 is closed, waiting for the side camera to take pictures and position. After taking pictures, correction is performed. The second clamp body 704 is moved to the engagement position by the linear module Y axis 701, the linear module X axis 702 and the rotating R axis 703. Position angle correction is performed during the movement. The second Z axis 708 descends while the first Z axis 705 descends to contact the FPC with the engagement point. At this time, the second clamp body 704 is released, and the first Z axis 705 continues to descend. A pressure closed loop is formed through the pressure sensor 706 to confirm whether the engagement pressure has been reached. After the engagement is completed, the first Z axis 705 and the second Z axis 708 are lifted, and the upper camera 707 is moved to the top of another track to take pictures. The above actions are repeated to achieve alternating engagement of the two tracks.The product flows into station 4 through the track, and the side cylinder side clamp positions the product. The fourth synchronous belt module 808 driven by the fifth stepper motor 801 drives the height sensor 804 to the height measurement point to test the relative height of the product. If the relative height is at a reasonable value, the fourth synchronous belt module 808 driven by the fifth stepper motor 801 moves the second clamping claw cylinder 806 to the top of the product, the lifting cylinder 805 descends, and the second clamping claw cylinder 806 closes, placing the product in the NG conveyor line 802. Repeat the above actions to alternately detect the two tracks.
