Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrical component movement technology, and in particular to an automated loading and unloading device for a high-speed press. Background Technology

[0002] An FPC fast press is a specialized piece of equipment for the production of FPC flexible circuit boards. It is mainly used to quickly press FPC flexible circuit boards with related components to ensure the strength and reliability of the connection. The loading and unloading equipment is one of the most important components of the FPC fast press. The loading and unloading equipment has functions such as automatically adsorbing the FPC flexible circuit board, assisting in the padding of the release film, automatically adsorbing the FPC flexible circuit board after it is pressed with related components, and assisting in tearing the release film. Among these, the automatic negative pressure loading and automatic negative pressure unloading of FPC flexible circuit boards are the most basic and important functions.

[0003] To eliminate the electrostatic effects of FPC flexible circuit boards and improve the stability of FPC flexible circuit board adsorption, vibration treatment is required for the adsorbed FPC flexible circuit boards. Existing high-speed presses typically place the FPC flexible circuit boards in a designated position on the press or on a loading rack to ensure accurate positioning. Then, the press's pressure, temperature, and time parameters are adjusted according to the specifications of the FPC flexible circuit boards before starting the press for automatic loading and unloading. However, during the loading process, a separate vibration operation is required, using a vertical movement method to achieve the vibration function. The vibration amplitude at the ends of the FPC flexible circuit boards is relatively large during vibration, which can easily cause damage to the end walls, thus affecting the integrity of the FPC flexible circuit board.

[0036] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0037] See Figures 1-4 An automated loading and unloading device for a high-speed press includes a guide rail 1, on which an electric slider 2 is slidably connected.

[0038] Initially, the guide rail rod 1 is installed on the existing fixed frame at the working position, and then the electric slider 2 is connected to the existing power supply.

[0039] See Figure 1The automated loading and unloading equipment of the high-speed press also includes a lifting device 3, which is connected to the electric slider 2. The lifting device 3 includes a baffle mechanism 31 connected to the electric slider 2. A vertical hydraulic push rod 32 is connected to the baffle mechanism 31, and a lifting bar 33 is installed at the lower end of the hydraulic push rod 32.

[0040] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The automated loading and unloading equipment of the high-speed press also includes an adsorption device 4. Two adsorption devices 4 are provided and connected to the front and rear ends of the lifting bar 33. The adsorption device 4 includes a connecting column 41 installed at the lower end of the lifting bar 33, and a rectangular plate 43 is installed at the lower end of the connecting column 41.

[0041] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The automated loading and unloading equipment for the high-speed press also includes a guiding device 5, which is located on the outside of the two rectangular plates 43. The guiding device 5 includes a support plate 51 located below the two rectangular plates 43, and the upper end of the support plate 51 is connected to two symmetrically distributed guiding mechanisms 52.

[0042] Initially, the support plate 51 is fixed on the workbench directly below the initial position of the two rectangular plates 43, and then the hydraulic push rod 32 is connected to the existing hydraulic pump. During actual operation, the multiple FPC flexible circuit boards to be fed are divided into two groups and placed on the support plate 51, with each group of FPC flexible circuit boards located directly below the corresponding rectangular plate 43.

[0043] See Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Figure 9 and Figure 12 The rectangular plate 43 is symmetrically connected with roller leveling mechanisms 44. The roller leveling mechanism 44 includes a rotating opening 441 in the middle of the rectangular plate 43. A rotating rod 442 is rotatably connected to the middle of the rotating opening 441. A snap-fit ​​block 443 is installed at the upper end of the rotating rod 442. A rotating roller 444 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the rotating rod 442 through a roller frame. A square plate 446 is provided on the side of the rotating rod 442 near the connecting column 41 and is fixedly connected to the rotating opening 441. A connecting spring 445 is installed between the upper end of the square plate 446 and the rotating rod 442.

[0044] In practice, after the FPC flexible circuit board is placed on the support plate 51, the hydraulic push rod 32 is activated. The hydraulic push rod 32 drives the lifting bar 33 to move downward. The lifting bar 33 drives the two rectangular plates 43 to move downward through the two connecting columns 41. The rectangular plates 43 drive the two rotating rods 442 to move downward through the two rotating openings 441. The two rotating rods 442 drive the rotating rollers 444 to move downward through the roller frame until the two rotating rollers 444 are in close contact with the upper end of the FPC flexible circuit board. Then the rectangular plates 43 continue to move downward. The two rotating rollers 444 are forced to drive the rotating rods 442 to rotate within the rotating openings 441 and squeeze the connecting springs 445. At the same time, the two rotating rollers 444 rotate on the upper end of the FPC flexible circuit board, realizing the rolling and flattening of the FPC flexible circuit board and avoiding the problem of bending and wrinkling of the FPC flexible circuit board during the feeding process.

[0045] See Figures 5-7 A locking mechanism 42 is connected to the connecting column 41. The locking mechanism 42 includes a rectangular groove 421 formed at the upper end of the connecting column 41. A step rod 422 is slidably connected in the rectangular groove 421. The upper end of the step rod 422 scrapes through the lifting bar 33. Two sliding frames 424 are symmetrically distributed front and back on the outer surface of the connecting column 41. A locking block 425 is slidably connected in the sliding frame 424. A return spring 426 is installed between the locking block 425 and the outer surface of the connecting column 41. The upper end of the locking block 425 is provided with an arc surface. A traction rope 423 is installed between the two locking blocks 425. The traction rope 423 slides through the connecting column 41. The middle part of the traction rope 423 is located in the rectangular groove 421 and below the step rod 422.

[0046] In actual operation, when the two rotating rollers 444 move to both sides of the FPC flexible circuit board, the rotating rod 442 drives the latching block 443 to push the upper arc surface of the latching block 425. The latching block 425 is forced to move into the sliding frame 424 and squeeze the reset spring 426 until the latching block 443 moves below the latching block 425 and separates from the latching block 425. The reset spring 426 drives the latching block 425 to reset. After reset, the latching block 425 limits the latching block 443, thereby realizing the function of limiting the rotating rod 442 and preventing the rotating rod 442 from affecting the FPC flexible circuit board during the FPC flexible circuit board feeding process.

[0047] See Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 12The rectangular plate 43 is also connected to two sets of symmetrically distributed adsorption groups. Each adsorption group consists of multiple adsorption mechanisms 45 evenly distributed from left to right. Each adsorption mechanism 45 includes a cylindrical tube 451 installed at the lower end of the rectangular plate 43. A lifting tube 452 that slides through the rectangular plate 43 is slidably connected inside the cylindrical tube 451. Sliding blocks are symmetrically installed on the outer surface of the lifting tube 452 and are slidably connected to the inner wall of the cylindrical tube 451. Two baffles 453 distributed on the upper and lower sides of the rectangular plate 43 are installed on the outer surface of the lifting tube 452. A connecting pipe 454 is installed and connected to the upper end of the lifting tube 452. A lifting column 455 is installed at the upper end of the annular surface of the lifting tube 452.

[0048] Initially, multiple connecting pipes 454 are connected to the existing air pump. During operation, as the rectangular plate 43 moves downwards, multiple cylindrical pipes 451 drive multiple lifting pipes 452 downwards. After the lower ends of the lifting pipes 452 contact the FPC flexible circuit board, the rectangular plate 43 continues to move downwards. The lifting pipes 452 slide within the cylindrical pipes 451 via sliding blocks until the lower baffle 453 on the lifting pipe 452 is in close contact with the lower end of the cylindrical pipe 451. The rectangular plate 43 then moves downwards by contacting the lower end of the cylindrical pipe 451. The attached baffle 453 drives the lifting tube 452 to press downwards, then the hydraulic push rod 32 stops working, and at the same time the air pump is started. The air pump uses multiple connecting tubes 454 and multiple lifting tubes 452 to adsorb the FPC flexible circuit boards on both sides. Then the hydraulic push rod 32 is started, and the hydraulic push rod 32 drives the lifting bar 33 to move upwards. The lifting bar 33 drives the two rectangular plates 43 to move upwards through two connecting columns 41. The two rectangular plates 43 drive the adsorbed FPC flexible circuit boards to rise through multiple lifting tubes 452.

[0049] See Figure 7 The upper end of the rectangular plate 43 is connected to two vibration mechanisms 46 that are symmetrically distributed front and back, and the left and right ends of the rectangular plate 43 are connected to limit mechanisms 47.

[0050] See Figure 1 The vibration mechanism 46 and the guide mechanism 52 work together to drive the FPC flexible circuit board on the adsorption mechanism 45 to vibrate up and down. At the same time, the limiting mechanism 47 works with the guide mechanism 52 to limit the edge of the vibrating FPC flexible circuit board.

[0051] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The guiding mechanism 52 includes two support plates 521 installed on the upper end of the support plate 51 and symmetrically distributed on the left and right. Each of the two support plates 521 has a right-angled trapezoidal block 522 with its inclined surface facing downward.

[0052] See Figure 7 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 The limiting mechanism 47 includes a fixed plate 471 installed at the end of the rectangular plate 43. A lifting plate 472 with a T-shaped structure and in a vertical state is slidably connected through the fixed plate 471. An L-shaped plate 473 is installed at the lower end of the lifting plate 472. A convex through hole is opened on the vertical section of the L-shaped plate 473. A limiting branch 474 is connected inside the convex through hole.

[0053] See Figure 7 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 The limiting branch 474 includes a limiting plate 4741 with an L-shaped structure and a horizontal section that is slidably connected to the convex through hole. A plurality of uniformly distributed compression springs 4742 are installed between the vertical section of the limiting plate 4741 and the end of the vertical section of the L-shaped plate 473 away from the rectangular plate 43. A semi-cylindrical protrusion 4743 is installed at the end of the vertical section of the limiting plate 4741 away from the limiting plate 4741.

[0054] Initially, cushioning foam is installed at the inner ends of the horizontal sections of the L-shaped plate 473 and the horizontal sections of the limiting plate 4741. The limiting plate 4741 is located on the outer side of the L-shaped plate 473. During operation, as the two rectangular plates 43 move downward, the L-shaped plate 473 at the lower end of the lifting plate 472 moves downward through the fixing plate 471 until the lower end of the horizontal section of the L-shaped plate 473 is in close contact with the end of the FPC flexible circuit board. The two rectangular plates 43 continue to move downward and drive the fixing plate 471 to slide on the lifting plate 472. During the upward movement of the FPC flexible circuit board, the two rectangular plates 43 drive multiple fixing plates 471 to rise, and the multiple fixing plates 471 drive multiple lifting plates 472 to rise. The lifting plate 472 drives the L-shaped plate 473 to rise. When the L-shaped plate 473 drives the limiting plate 4741 to the lower end of the right-angled trapezoidal block 522, the right-angled trapezoidal block 522 pushes the semi-cylindrical protrusion 4743. The semi-cylindrical protrusion 4743 is forced to slide the horizontal section of the limiting plate 4741 in the convex through hole of the vertical section of the L-shaped plate 473 and move to the lower end of the FPC flexible circuit board. At the same time, the vertical section of the limiting plate 4741 squeezes the compression spring 4742. At this time, the horizontal section of the L-shaped plate 473 and the horizontal section of the limiting plate 4741 are located on the upper and lower sides of the end of the FPC flexible circuit board, respectively, realizing the function of limiting the end of the FPC flexible circuit board.

[0055] See Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 10 and Figure 12The vibration mechanism 46 includes a sliding groove 461 formed on the upper end of the rectangular plate 43 and located on the side of the rotating rod 442 away from the connecting column 41. A sliding rod 462 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 461. An arc-shaped protrusion is provided on the left end of the sliding rod 462. A telescopic spring 464 is installed on the right end of the sliding rod 462. An L-shaped spacer plate 463 is fixedly connected to the right end of the telescopic spring 464. The horizontal section of the spacer plate 463 is fixedly connected to the right end of the rectangular plate 43. Multiple evenly distributed pushing branches 465 are connected to the sliding rod 462.

[0056] See Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 10 and Figure 12 The pushing support chain 465 includes a plurality of evenly distributed rectangular through holes 4651 formed on the sliding rod 462. A pushing block 4652 is hinged in the rectangular through hole 4651 by a torsion spring. The lifting column 455 is located above the pushing block 4652.

[0057] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 Two arc-shaped guide blocks 523 are installed on opposite ends of the support plate 521 located on the left side.

[0058] In specific operation, after the horizontal sections of the L-shaped plates 473 and the limiting plates 4741 on both sides limit the ends of the FPC flexible circuit board, the two rectangular plates 43 drive the four sliding rods 462 to move upward through the four sliding grooves 461. After the arc-shaped protrusions on the four sliding rods 462 contact the corresponding arc-shaped guide blocks 523, the two rectangular plates 43 continue to rise. The arc-shaped guide blocks 523 push the arc-shaped protrusions, and the sliding rods 462 slide within the sliding grooves 461 under force and push the telescopic springs 464. At the same time, the sliding rods 462 drive multiple rectangular through holes 4651 to move. The rectangular through holes 4651 drive the corresponding pushing blocks 4652 to move and push the lifting columns 455. The lifting columns 455 move upward under force and drive the corresponding lifting tubes 452 to move upward, thereby driving the FPC flexible circuit board to move upward. When the lifting columns 455 separate from the pushing blocks 4652, multiple The lifting tube 452 drives the FPC flexible circuit board to reset downwards, causing the FPC flexible circuit board to vibrate. This effectively detects the strength of the lifting tube 452 in adsorbing the FPC flexible circuit board. Furthermore, the buffer springs on the horizontal sections of the L-shaped plates 473 and the horizontal sections of the limiting plates 4741 on both sides buffer the two ends of the vibrating FPC flexible circuit board, preventing excessive deformation at both ends due to vibration propagation, thus avoiding damage to the FPC flexible circuit board and ensuring its integrity. When the sliding rod 462 gradually separates from the arc-shaped guide block 523, the compressed telescopic spring 464 drives the sliding rod 462 to reset. The sliding rod 462 drives multiple pushing blocks 4652 to reset. After the pushing blocks 4652 come into contact with the lifting column 455, they rotate into the rectangular through hole 4651, preventing the lifting column 455 from affecting the reset of the pushing blocks 4652.

[0059] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 The partition mechanism 31 includes a strip plate 311 installed on the left end of the electric slider 2. The lower end of the strip plate 311 away from the electric slider 2 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the hydraulic push rod 32. A partition plate 312 with a U-shaped structure is symmetrically installed at the end of the strip plate 311 away from the electric slider 2.

[0060] In specific operation, after the two rectangular plates 43 move the four sliding rods 462 above the corresponding arc-shaped guide block 523, the hydraulic push rod 32 stops working. Then, the electric slider 2 is activated. The electric slider 2 slides on the guide rail 1 and moves the hydraulic push rod 32 via the strip plate 311. The hydraulic push rod 32 moves the two connecting columns 41 via the lifting bar 33. The two connecting columns 41 move the two rectangular plates 43 laterally. The two rectangular plates 43 move the two FPC flexible circuit boards via multiple lifting pipes 452 until the two FPC flexible circuit boards are above the processing position. Then, the hydraulic push rod 32 further moves the two rectangular plates 43 downwards until the two FPC flexible circuit boards are in the processing position. Afterward, the air pump is turned off, and the multiple lifting pipes 452 are released. In addition to adsorbing the FPC flexible circuit board, the hydraulic push rod 32 drives the two connecting columns 41 to rise again via the lifting bar 33. The two connecting columns 41 drive the step bar 422 to move upward and contact the partition 312. The partition 312 blocks the step bar 422. At the same time, the two connecting columns 41 drive the traction rope 423 to move towards the lower end of the step bar 422. The traction rope 423 is forced to drive the two locking blocks 425 to move into the sliding frame 424, thereby releasing the limit on the locking block 443. The compressed connecting spring 445 resets and drives the rotating rod 442 to reset. Then the electric slider 2 drives the hydraulic push rod 32 to move back to the initial position. The previous loading and unloading steps of the FPC flexible circuit board are repeated until all the FPC flexible circuit boards are loaded, and the work ends.
