[0041] It should be noted that a partition assembly 57 is further provided between the feed area 5a and the discharge area 5b, which is used to separate the semiconductor sheet A in the feed area 5a from the discharge area 5b when the push assembly 53 drives the semiconductor sheet A in the discharge area 5b to move toward the material distribution area 5c. To this end, the partition assembly 57 includes a stand 571, a swing arm 572 and a partition plate 573. The stand 571 is installed at the end of the feed area 5a, and the swing arm 572 and the partition plate 573 are swingably installed on the stand 571. An elastic member 574 is provided between the swing arm 572 and the stand 571 to provide an elastic force for the swing arm 572 to swing upward.

A cotton pad is also provided on the side of the partition plate 573 close to the semiconductor sheet A, which is used to squeeze the nearest semiconductor sheet A toward the base 51 when pushing to reduce the occurrence of warping.

[0042] The material distribution area 5c: the material distribution component 54 includes a plurality of transfer blocks 541, and the transfer blocks 541 are provided with a placement surface 541a for placing the semiconductor tablets A sent from the discharge area 5b. In this embodiment, the placement surface 541a adopts a soft particle surface structure, such as a rubber particle surface, which is used to appropriately increase the stability of the semiconductor tablets A; the material distribution component 54 at this location needs to perform two functions, namely, moving to the fixed material area 5d and unfolding the transfer blocks 541;

[0043] In executing the function of moving to the material setting area 5d, the material distribution component 54 also includes a moving frame 542 and a cross rail beam 543, the cross rail beam 543 is installed on the moving frame 542, the transfer block 541 is slidably installed on the cross rail beam 543, the bottom end of the base 51 is equipped with a mounting frame 56, the moving frame 542 is slidably installed on the mounting frame 56 through a slide rail, and the mounting frame 56 is provided with a second material distribution actuator 545 for driving the moving frame 542 to move to the material setting area 5d;

[0044] In the function of expanding the transfer block 541, the states of the transfer block 541 on the cross rail beam 543 include a tightened state and an expanded state. The mobile frame 542 is provided with a first material distribution actuator 544 for driving the transfer block 541 to switch between the tightened state and the expanded state. The transfer block 541 in the tightened state is close to the discharge area 5b for receiving the semiconductor material A. For this purpose, a single transfer block 541 is provided with a raised spacing convex portion 541c on one side close to the next transfer block 541. 541 abuts against the next transfer block 541 through the spacing convex portion 541c, and a gap 541b is formed between the transfer blocks 541 above the spacing convex portion 541c. The gap 541b is the spacing space between two adjacent transfer blocks 541. The spacing of the gap 541b is greater than the sum of the thicknesses of the two pins and less than the spacing of the two suction cup arms 63, so that when receiving the semiconductor tablet A in the discharge area 5b, the main body of the semiconductor tablet A can enter the placement surface 541a and the pins can enter the gap 541b.

[0045] The transfer block 541 in the expanded state drives several semiconductor sheets A to expand and arrange at regular intervals. For this purpose, connecting parts are provided between the transfer blocks 541. The first material distribution actuator 544 is connected to the transfer block 541 at one end. The connecting parts maintain the same spacing between the expanded transfer blocks 541. The connecting parts can be connecting ropes 541d or connecting pins 541e. The two ends of the connecting ropes 541d are installed on the transfer block 541 by bolts. After a hole is dug in the middle of the transfer block 541 and a lateral slot is opened, the connecting pin 541e can be installed. Subsequently, when the first material distribution actuator 544 drives the transfer block 541 at one end to move, the remaining transfer blocks 541 are driven to move by the connecting parts, so as to expand and arrange at regular fixed intervals.

[0046] The material fixing area 5d part: the material fixing component 55 includes a connecting plate 552 and a plurality of bearing seats 551. The connecting plate 552 is provided with reference grooves 552a arranged at intervals. The bearing seats 551 are installed in the reference grooves 552a. It should be noted that the spacing of the reference grooves 552a is equal to the spacing of the suction cup arms 63, or equal to the spacing of each semiconductor material sheet A slot on the carrier 4. The reference grooves 552a are used to arrange and position the front and rear semiconductor materials A, and are compatible with the suction cup arms 63 and the carrier 4 of the next level, so that the material pushing component 53 and the material dividing component 54 of the previous level are adapted and assembled for this purpose;

[0047] The connecting plate 552 is slidably mounted on the mounting frame 56. The mounting frame 56 is provided with a material fixing actuator 553 connected to the connecting plate 552. With the bottom of the mounting frame 56 as a reference, the state of the supporting seat 551 in the mounting frame 56 includes a low position state in which the distance from the bottom of the mounting frame 56 is closer than the adjacent transfer block 541, and a high position state in which the distance from the bottom of the mounting frame 56 is farther than the adjacent transfer block 541. Specifically, since the transfer block 541 has no lifting function, after the transfer block 541 moves to the supporting seat 551, the initial position of the supporting seat 551, that is, the low position state, is lower than the transfer block 541. Subsequently, the transfer block 541 in the unfolded state is inserted into the supporting seats 551 arranged at intervals, and the semiconductor material A is received and transferred to the supporting seat 551 by the supporting seat 551 rising from the low position state to the high position state, and the material fixing actuator 553 is used to drive the supporting seat 551 to switch between the low position state and the high position state;

[0048] Two adjacent supporting seats 551 are used to support a semiconductor sheet A. A depression is provided near the edge of the top of the supporting seat 551 for embedding the pins of the semiconductor sheet A. To this end, the side of the top of the supporting seat 551 close to the semiconductor sheet A is a cutting edge 551a or a thin edge 551b. The top of the cutting edge 551a is sharp and the thickness of the thin edge 551b is less than the thickness of the pin. More specifically, the side of the cutting edge 551a close to the depression is inclined, and the thin edge 551b is slightly inclined outward, which is more suitable for embedding the pins of the semiconductor sheet A.

[0049] As for the cloth assembly 6, the cloth assembly 6 includes a transposition mechanism 61 and a suction cup arm 63 driven by the transposition mechanism 61 to reciprocate between the carrier belt 4 and the feeding mechanism. The transposition mechanism 61 is a reciprocating structure known to those skilled in the art. Specifically, it includes a turntable, a slider that can rotate independently outside the turntable, and a connecting rod that slides with the slider and is eccentrically hinged to the turntable. When the turntable rotates, the connecting rod will first retract toward the slider side. After crossing the line connecting the center of the turntable and the center of the slider, the rotation of the turntable will drive the connecting rod to retract. The rod is pulled out from the slider, and the purpose of picking up and releasing materials can be achieved by only setting the workstations at the two positions of the beginning of contraction and the end of extraction. A connecting seat 62 is installed at the end of the transposition mechanism 61, and a transposition arm 64 is installed on the connecting seat 62. A plurality of suction cup arms 63 are arranged at intervals on the transposition arm 64 for adsorbing the semiconductor material A on the fixed material area 5d. The transposition arm 64 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 62, and a rotary actuator 65 is provided on the connecting seat 62 to drive the transposition arm 64 to rotate.

[0050] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the rotary actuator 65 adopts a motor, while the push actuator 532, the first material distribution actuator 544, the second material distribution actuator 545, the metering actuator 553, etc. adopt cylinders.

[0051] In the specific implementation, it is divided into two parts: backup material filling and final filling. The backup material filling provides a certain number of semiconductor chips A for direct use by the final filling, and includes the following control methods;

[0052] In the first step, the feeding area 5a supplies semiconductor tablets A to the discharging area 5b. The semiconductor tablets A in the feeding area 5a slide downward into the discharging area 5b and are accumulated to the required number, i.e., twelve. The pusher plate 531 provided in the pusher assembly 53 in the discharging area 5b is slightly longer than the sum of the required widths of the semiconductor tablets A. The pusher plate 531 is pushed out by the pusher actuator 532 in the discharging area 5b, and the twelve semiconductor tablets A are pushed onto the distributing assembly 54 in the distributing area 5c.

[0053] In the second step, the twelve semiconductor tablets A are placed one by one on the twelve transfer blocks 541, the main body of the semiconductor tablet A enters the placement surface 541a, and the pins enter the gap 541b, then the push plate 531 is retracted, the feeding area 5a continues to supply semiconductor tablets A to the discharge area 5b, and the second material distribution actuator 545 starts to drive the moving frame 542 to move from the discharge area 5b to the fixed material area 5d. During the movement, the first material distribution actuator 544 drives the transfer block 541 at one end to move, and the remaining transfer blocks 541 are driven to move by the connecting parts, so that the transfer blocks 541 are unfolded and arranged in regular fixed intervals before reaching the fixed material area 5d;

[0054] In the third step, the transfer block 541 is unfolded and arranged at regular fixed intervals before reaching the fixed material area 5d, and the second material distribution actuator 545 continues to drive, the unfolded transfer block 541 is inserted into the spaced supporting seats 551, and the fixed material actuator 553 drives the supporting seats 551 to move from the low position to the high position, that is, it rises and lifts the semiconductor sheet A on the transfer block 541, and receives and transfers the semiconductor sheet A to the supporting seats 551. Two adjacent supporting seats 551 are used to carry one semiconductor sheet A, and the pins of the semiconductor sheet A enter the groove of the supporting seat 551 along the blade edge 551a or the thin edge 551b, and are properly stabilized on the supporting seat 551, and then the material distribution assembly 54 returns to its original position;

[0055] In the fourth step, the transposition mechanism 61 drives the connecting seat 62 to move toward the upper material component 5. During this process, the transposition arm 64 is driven by the rotary actuator 65 to rotate so that the length direction of the transposition arm 64 is parallel to the arrangement direction of the semiconductor material A and close to the supporting seat 551, and the semiconductor material A is adsorbed by the suction cup arm 63. Then the transposition mechanism 61 moves in the opposite direction and the rotary actuator 65 reverses, so that the transposition arm 64 brings a row of suction cup arms 63, and the suction cup arm 63 brings the semiconductor material A to the top of the carrier 4, and the semiconductor material A is placed in the carrier 4. The carrier 4 is rolled up in the direction of the winding wheel 3 after coating. The inside of the carrier 4 is equipped with a slot for the semiconductor material A so that the semiconductor material A that falls in can automatically correct its position. At the same time, the subsequent coating operation will also play a role in correcting the position of the semiconductor material A.
