[0060] The present invention provides a printing, inspection and pasting all-in-one machine, a main and auxiliary board pasting line and a main and auxiliary board pasting method, which are suitable for the application scenario of directly pasting the auxiliary board onto the main board after printing solder paste. The invention can effectively solve the problems of low compactness of equipment structure and overly complicated production process in the existing pasting process.

[0061] Example 1

[0062] See also Figure 1 This embodiment provides a main and auxiliary board mounting line, including a main board production line 100 and a printing, inspection and mounting integrated machine 200. Specifically, the main board production line 100 includes a main board printing and mounting machine group 100a, an auxiliary board mounting device 100b, and a welding machine group 100c in order from upstream to downstream along the conveying direction of the main board. Among them, the printing, inspection and mounting integrated machine 200 is located between the main board printing and mounting machine group 100a and the auxiliary board mounting device 100b.

[0063] In this embodiment, the mainboard printing and pasting machine group 100a is used to print the mainboard and then paste the mainboard electronic components onto the mainboard, that is, the mainboard sent to the printing, inspection and pasting integrated machine 200 has been pasted with the mainboard electronic components from the beginning. The printing, inspection and pasting integrated machine 200 is mainly used to print the sub-board and then paste the sub-board onto the main board that has been pasted with the mainboard electronic components; after the sub-board is pasted onto the mainboard, the sub-board pasting equipment 100b pastes the sub-board electronic components onto the sub-board, thereby completing the pasting operation of the sub-board; finally, the mainboard and the sub-board are sent to the welding machine group 100c together, and the mainboard and the sub-board are welded at the same time, so that the mainboard electronic components and the sub-board can be welded and fixed on the mainboard, and the sub-board electronic components can be welded and fixed on the sub-board.

[0064] It is worth pointing out that in the present invention, the main board printed patch unit 100a, the sub-board patch equipment 100b, and the welding unit 100c can all adopt existing products on the market. The working principles and specific structures of the above three are not the focus of this embodiment, so they will not be described in detail.

[0065] This embodiment focuses on the specific structure and workflow of the printing, inspection and labeling machine 200.

[0066] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The printing, inspection and pasting machine 200 includes a mainboard conveying device 200a for transferring the mainboard between the mainboard printing and pasting machine group 100a and the sub-board pasting device 100b, the sub-board production line body 200b for printing the sub-board, and a pasting mechanism 200c for pasting the printed sub-board onto the mainboard sent by the mainboard conveying device 200a.

[0067] In this embodiment, the sub-board production line 200b includes a sub-board feeding device 1 for supplying sub-boards, a printer 2 for printing sub-boards, a printing feed conveyor 3 for conveying sub-boards from the sub-board feeding device 1 to the printer 2, a lateral transfer robot 4 for transferring the sub-boards from the sub-board feeding device 1 to the printing feed conveyor 3, and a printing discharge conveyor 5 for conveying the sub-boards delivered by the printer 2 to the main board conveyor 200a. The mounting mechanism 200c is used to mount the sub-boards on the printing discharge conveyor 5 onto the main board of the main board conveyor 200a.

[0068] The main and auxiliary board mounting line provided in this embodiment has the following detailed working process:

[0069] S10: After the motherboard printing and patching machine unit 100a completes the printing and patching operation of the motherboard, the motherboard is sent to the motherboard conveying device 200a;

[0070] S20: The sub-board feeding device 1 supplies the sub-board without solder paste printed thereon;

[0071] See also Figure 4 In this embodiment, the sub-plate feeding device 1 includes a fixed feeding platform 101, a lifting feeding platform 102, a lifting feeding linear drive mechanism 103, a lifting transfer platform 104, a lifting transfer linear drive mechanism 105, a lifting material receiving platform 106, a lifting material receiving linear drive mechanism 107, a longitudinal transfer robot 108, a remote cache platform 109, a near-end cache platform 110, and a fixed transfer platform 111.

[0072] The lifting and feeding platform 102 is located above the fixed feeding platform 101; wherein the lateral transfer robot 4 is used to transfer the sub-board on the lifting and feeding platform 102 to the printing feeding conveyor 3. The driving end of the lifting and feeding linear driving mechanism 103 is connected to the lifting and feeding platform 102, driving the lifting and feeding platform 102 to move up and down relative to the fixed feeding platform 101.

[0073] The lifting transfer platform 104 is located at the side of the fixed feeding platform 101. The driving end of the lifting transfer linear driving mechanism 105 is connected to the lifting transfer platform 104, driving the lifting transfer platform 104 to move up and down relative to the fixed feeding platform 101.

[0074] The lifting material receiving platform 106 is located on the side of the lifting transfer platform 104 away from the fixed material feeding platform 101. The driving end of the lifting material receiving linear driving mechanism 107 is connected to the lifting material receiving platform 106, driving the lifting material receiving platform 106 to move up and down relative to the fixed material feeding platform 101. The longitudinal transfer manipulator 108 is used to transfer the empty fixture on the lifting feeding platform 102 to the lifting material receiving platform 106.

[0075] The remote cache platform 109 is fixed below the lifting material receiving platform 106 , the proximal cache platform 110 is located on a side of the remote cache platform 109 close to the fixed feeding platform 101 , and the fixed transfer platform 111 is fixed above the proximal cache platform 110 .

[0076] The sub-plate feeding device 1 provided in this embodiment has a specific feeding process as follows:

[0077] S201: The upstream AGV moves a number of stacked fully loaded jigs (with sub-boards without solder paste printed in the jigs) to a position opposite to the fixed feeding platform 101, and then transports a stack of fully loaded jigs to the fixed feeding platform 101;

[0078] S202: the lifting and transfer linear drive mechanism 105 drives the lifting and transfer platform 104 to move downward until it is flush with the fixed feeding platform 101, and the fixed feeding platform 101 transfers the entire stack of fully loaded fixtures to the lifting and transfer platform 104;

[0079] Next, the lifting and transfer linear drive mechanism 105 drives the lifting and transfer platform 104 to move upward until it is flush with the lifting and feeding platform 102, and the lifting and transfer platform 104 transfers the entire stack of fully loaded fixtures to the lifting and feeding platform 102;

[0080] S203: The lateral transfer robot 4 transfers the sub-plate on the lifting and feeding platform 102 to the printing feeding conveyor 3;

[0081] S204: When the jigs on the top layer are taken out, the longitudinal transfer robot 108 transfers the empty jigs to the lifting material receiving platform 106; then, the lifting material feeding platform 102 moves upward by one grid, and the lifting material receiving platform 106 moves downward by one grid; this process is repeated until all the sub-plates on the lifting material feeding platform 102 are taken out and all the jigs are transferred to the lifting material receiving platform 106;

[0082] It should be noted that, in the process of the lateral transfer manipulator 4 and the longitudinal transfer manipulator 108 cooperating to retrieve materials, the lifting and transfer linear drive mechanism 105 drives the lifting and transfer platform 104 to move downward to be flush with the fixed feeding platform 101; the AGV trolley first transports a stack of fully loaded fixtures to the far-end cache platform 109 for caching via the lifting and transfer platform 104 and the near-end cache platform 110, and then transports another stack of fully loaded fixtures to the near-end cache platform 110 for caching via the lifting and transfer platform 104; thereby, the internal storage space of the AGV trolley can be freed up for the subsequent recovery of empty fixtures;

[0083] S205: the lifting and receiving material linear drive mechanism 107 drives the lifting and receiving material platform 106 to move to be flush with the fixed transfer platform 111, and the lifting and transfer linear drive mechanism 105 drives the lifting and transfer platform 104 to move to be flush with the fixed transfer platform 111;

[0084] The lifting material receiving platform 106 transports the empty jig to the lifting transfer platform 104 via the fixed transfer platform 111;

[0085] S206: The lifting and transfer linear drive mechanism 105 drives the lifting and transfer platform 104 to move downward until it is flush with the fixed feeding platform 101, and the lifting and transfer platform 104 transfers the empty fixture back to the AGV car via the fixed feeding platform 101;

[0086] S207: The proximal buffer platform 110 transfers the buffered fully loaded fixtures to the lifting transfer platform 104, and then the lifting transfer linear drive mechanism 105 drives the lifting transfer platform 104 to move upward to be flush with the lifting feeding platform 102, and transfers the fully loaded fixtures to the lifting feeding platform 102;

[0087] In this way, the fully loaded fixtures on the remote buffer platform 109 can also be supplied to the lifting and feeding platform 102, and finally all the empty fixtures can be recovered and sent back to the AGV car.

[0088] Optionally, there are two sub-board feeding devices 1, and the two sub-board feeding devices 1 are symmetrically arranged about the printing feed conveyor 3. The two sub-board feeding devices 1 sequentially feed the printing feed conveyor 3 through the lateral transfer robot 4 to improve the feeding efficiency of the sub-boards.

[0089] S30: the lateral transfer robot 4 delivers the sub-board supplied by the sub-board feeding device 1 to the printing feed conveyor 3; then, the printing feed conveyor 3 delivers the sub-board to the printing machine 2, and the printing machine 2 completes the printing operation of the sub-board by screen printing or other methods, and then delivers the printed sub-board to a position close to the main board conveyor 200a through the printing discharge conveyor 5;

[0090] It should be noted that the printing machine 2 can be an existing product on the market, and its working principle and specific structure are not the focus of the present invention, so they are not described in detail.

[0091] In this embodiment, both the printing material output conveyor 5 and the mainboard conveyor 200a are located above the printing material feed conveyor 3. The printing material output conveyor 5 and the printing material feed conveyor 3 are parallel to each other; the mainboard conveyor 200a and the printing material feed conveyor 3 are perpendicular to each other.

[0092] Such a structural layout allows the mainboard conveying device 200a, the printing feed conveying device 3, and the printing discharge conveying device 5 to be staggered with each other to fully utilize the space, greatly improving the compactness of the structure and reducing the overall volume of the equipment.

[0093] Furthermore, the length dimension of the printing material discharging conveying device 5 is smaller than the length dimension of the printing material feeding conveying device 3 so as to reserve installation space for the mainboard conveying device 200a.

[0094] S40: The mounting mechanism 200c mounts the sub-board on the printing discharge conveying device 5 onto the main board delivered by the main board conveying device 200a.

[0095] In this embodiment, the mounting mechanism 200c includes a mounting robot and a CCD component installed on the mounting robot and used for visually inspecting the sub-board.

[0096] Optionally, the CCD component can not only be used to visually locate the sub-board so that the mounting robot can accurately grasp the sub-board, but also to visually inspect the printing quality of the sub-board to detect whether there is any missing printing or printing pattern errors.

[0097] It should be noted that at this time, the sub-board mounted on the main board is a bare board and has not yet been mounted.

[0098] S50: The secondary board mounting device 100b performs a mounting operation on the secondary board, mounting the secondary board electronic components onto the secondary board;

[0099] S60: The main board and the auxiliary board are sent to the welding unit 100c together, and the welding unit 100c performs welding operations on the main board and the auxiliary board simultaneously.

[0100] Optionally, the soldering operation is performed by reflow soldering. Since the main board and the sub-board enter the soldering unit 100c together, the following can be achieved simultaneously:

[0101] ① Completely fix the motherboard electronic components on the motherboard;

[0102] ② Completely fix the electronic components on the sub-board to the sub-board;

[0103] ③Fix the sub-board completely to the main board.

[0104] The printing, inspection and pasting integrated machine 200 provided in this embodiment couples the printing, inspection and pasting integrated machine to the mainboard production line: on the one hand, the mainboard conveying device 200a, the sub-board production line 200b, and the mounting mechanism 200c are highly integrated, which greatly improves the compactness of the equipment; on the other hand, the printed sub-board is first mounted on the mainboard, and then the sub-board is mounted, and finally the mainboard and the sub-board are uniformly welded, reducing the traditional two independent welding operations to one welding operation, effectively reducing the complexity of the production process. Therefore, the printing, inspection and pasting integrated machine 200 provided by the present invention can be coupled to the mainboard production line, and then cooperate to solve the problems of low compactness of the equipment structure and overly complicated production process in the existing mounting process.

[0105] In summary, the printing, inspection and pasting integrated machine 200 and the main and auxiliary board pasting line provided in this embodiment have the following beneficial effects:

[0106] ① The mainboard conveying device 200a, the sub-board production line body 200b, and the mounting mechanism 200c are highly integrated, which greatly improves the compactness of the equipment;

[0107] ② First, mount the printed sub-board on the main board, then mount the sub-board, and finally weld the main board and sub-board together, reducing the traditional two independent welding operations to one welding operation, greatly optimizing the process of turnover of sub-board materials, not only greatly improving the compactness of the equipment and reducing the equipment cost of the welding unit, but also effectively reducing the complexity of the production process and improving production efficiency;

[0108] ③ The auxiliary plate feeding device 1 can first empty the AGV trolley, and then send all the empty fixtures back to the AGV trolley, so that the AGV trolley can bring the empty fixtures back to the upstream equipment when returning, which is beneficial to improve the turnover efficiency of the fixtures.

[0109] It should be noted that the linear drive mechanism mentioned in the present invention may be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric cylinder or a motor screw linear module, etc., and the rotary drive mechanism mentioned may be a brushed motor, a brushless motor, or a rotary cylinder, etc. The present invention does not limit the specific structural forms of the linear drive mechanism and the rotary drive mechanism.

[0113] B. After printing and visually inspecting the secondary board, the secondary board is mounted on the primary board; specifically, this step is performed by a printing, inspection and mounting integrated machine; corresponding to steps S20-S40 in embodiment 1;

[0114] C. Mounting the electronic components of the secondary board onto the secondary board; specifically, this step is performed by a secondary board mounting device;

[0115] D. Weld and fix the sub-board electronic components to the sub-board, and weld and fix the main board electronic components and the sub-board to the main board; specifically, this step is performed by a welding unit.

[0116] The main and sub-board mounting method provided in this embodiment has at least the following advantages: first, the printed sub-board is mounted on the main board, and then the sub-board is mounted, and finally the main board and the sub-board are welded together, reducing the traditional two independent welding operations to one welding operation, greatly optimizing the process of turnover of sub-board materials, not only greatly improving the compactness of the equipment and reducing the equipment cost of the welding unit, but also effectively reducing the complexity of the production process and improving production efficiency.

[0117] It should be noted that the main and auxiliary board mounting method provided in this embodiment has the same functions and beneficial effects as the main and auxiliary board mounting line provided in Example 1.
