Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chip placement machines, and more particularly to a chip placement machine and a control system thereof. Background Art
[0002] Electronic component placement machines, also known as "mounters" or "surface mount systems," are one of the essential key devices in modern electronics manufacturing. They are primarily responsible for accurately placing various types of SMC / SMD (surface mount components) onto corresponding positions on the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB) that has been pre-printed with solder paste or adhesive. With the trend toward miniaturization, lightweighting, high density, and multifunctionality in electronic products, the role of placement machines is becoming increasingly important.
[0003] The electronic component placement machine is mainly composed of PCB transmission, component feeding, component removal, component positioning and component installation. Component installation is a crucial part of the placement machine, because electronic components are large and small, and some electronic components have many pins and are very close together, so component installation is a process that requires precision.
[0004] For example, the Chinese patent application number CN202310192725.4 discloses an automatic circuit board patch device, including a protective outer frame, a power box, a patch assembly and a display assembly. The patch assembly includes a sliding table, a cylinder, a patch suction cup, a dimmer and a camera. An adjustment aperture is installed at one end of the dimmer. A camera is provided on the surface of the camera. The circuit board is photographed and recorded by the camera, and the picture taken by the camera is compared with the picture of the standard circuit board taken before the patch is patched. The operator confirms the joint action position of the two to determine the pick-up point of the patch and the position where the patch is installed on the surface of the circuit board, thereby improving the positional relationship between the patch and the circuit board, and improving and ensuring the quality of the product; the principle of infrared light refraction positioning is adopted to increase the clarity of the camera shooting, so that the operator can locate the position of the patch and determine the accuracy of the patch position, while ensuring that the image can be clearly imaged on the external monitor when the human eye cannot see the environment clearly.
[0005] Although this patent can accurately install electronic components by comparing the picture taken by the camera with the picture of the standard circuit board taken before the patch, when placing the electronic components, the patch suction cup is only a conventional setting. Therefore, the airflow when the negative pressure state of the patch suction cup is released will act on the electronic components, thereby affecting the accuracy of the patch. Because in the prior art, when the nozzle device of the patch machine (equivalent to the patch suction cup) is used to grab the electronic components, the solenoid valve controls the negative pressure generator to connect with the nozzle device, and the nozzle device grabs the electronic components through negative pressure, and then the robotic arm drives the nozzle device to move, and the electronic components on the nozzle device are removed. When inserted into the PCB board, the solenoid valve switches the air blow pipe, so that the air blow pipe is connected to the suction nozzle device, and then air is blown into the suction nozzle device, thereby releasing the vacuum of the suction nozzle device and causing the suction nozzle device to put down the electronic components. However, because electronic components are large and small, and some electronic components have a lot of pins and are relatively dense, when the continuous airflow blown into the suction nozzle device acts on smaller electronic components or electronic components with more pins, it is easy to cause the small electronic components to shake, thereby causing the electronic components to skew, and electronic components with more pins to cause pin dislocation, which will greatly increase the occurrence of cold soldering.

[0027] When the solenoid valve switches the air blowing pipe, the air blowing pipe is connected to the suction head, and then air is blown into the suction head, thereby releasing the negative pressure state above the mounting plate. At this time, the first tension spring will pull the power plate back to its initial position, and will squeeze the telescopic air storage part, so that the air in the telescopic air storage part is discharged from the air outlet one-way valve, and finally enters the cavity below the mounting plate through the air outlet duct, thereby promoting the release of the negative pressure state of the cavity below the mounting plate. At the same time, because in the initial setting, the amount of air inhaled by the two telescopic air storage parts when they are stretched in the negative pressure state is roughly the same as the amount of air in the cavity below the mounting plate moved toward the top of the mounting plate, when the power plate returns to its initial position, the air discharged by the two telescopic air storage parts is exhausted after the negative pressure state of the cavity below the mounting plate is released, which can ensure the normal operation of the suction head while the air blown into the suction head will not affect the electronic components.
[0028] When the filter screen rotates counterclockwise, the scraper will scrape the lower surface of the filter screen, thereby scraping off the dust adsorbed on the lower surface of the filter screen, and the scraped dust will fall into the collection box, thereby effectively avoiding the situation that the filter screen is blocked and causing the negative pressure of the suction head to be unstable.

[0041] The following will provide a clear and complete description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0042] Example 1
[0043] In a conventional placement machine, the solenoid valve controls the negative pressure generator to be connected to the suction nozzle device, and the suction nozzle device grabs the electronic components through negative pressure. Then the robotic arm drives the suction nozzle device to move and inserts the electronic components on the suction nozzle device onto the PCB board. The solenoid valve switches the air blow pipe, so that the air blow pipe is connected to the suction nozzle device, and then blows air into the suction nozzle device to release the vacuum of the suction nozzle device, so that the suction nozzle device puts down the electronic components. However, when the air blow pipe blows air into the suction nozzle, although the vacuum state of the suction nozzle can be released, the air blow pipe blows air continuously. Therefore, when the air flow blows on the electronic components, it is easy to cause the electronic components to become skewed or the pins to be misaligned, thereby causing the solder joint to be poorly soldered. This embodiment is specially invented to solve the above problems.
[0044] See also Figures 1 to 10 The present invention provides a technical solution: a placement machine, including a placement machine body 1, a suction component 4 capable of moving in a three-dimensional direction is provided in the placement machine body 1, wherein a bracket 3 is also provided in the placement machine body 1, and a three-dimensional driving device and a machine cover 2 are provided on the bracket 3, and the suction component 4 is provided on the three-dimensional driving device, so as to move in the three-dimensional direction. At the same time, because the bracket and the three-dimensional driving device are conventional devices on the market, they are not described in detail. At the same time, a suction sleeve 6 is provided at the bottom end of the suction component 4, and the suction component 4 is clamped in the suction sleeve 6. At the same time, personnel can replace the suction component 4 in the suction sleeve 6.
[0045] The suction component 4 includes a driving component and a suction head 7 arranged at the bottom end of the driving component, wherein the driving component can cause the suction head 7 to move up and down or rotate. At the same time, the driving component is also a prior art, so it is not described in detail. A filter screen 13 for filtering the inhaled air is provided in the middle of the suction head 7, and a cleaning component capable of scraping the lower surface of the filter screen 13 is provided directly below the filter screen 13.
[0046] Two telescopic air storage parts 15 are relatively arranged in the middle part of the suction head 7, which can relieve the negative pressure state at the bottom end of the suction head 7, and the opposite ends of the two telescopic air storage parts 15 are fixedly connected to power plates 18 that can move closer to or away from each other. The upper surfaces of the two power plates 18 are fixedly connected to push rods 19 that can cause the filter screen 13 to rotate.
[0047] A sealing component is also provided in the middle of the suction head 7 to prevent active pressure relief in the cavity at the bottom end of the suction head 7 .
[0048] Two power mounting grooves 14 communicating with the cavity are relatively provided in the cavity in the middle of the suction head 7, and the two telescopic air storage parts 15 are respectively arranged in the corresponding power mounting grooves 14, and the end of the telescopic air storage part 15 away from the cavity is fixedly connected to the inner side surface of the power mounting groove 14, and the middle part of the outer peripheral surface of the suction head 7 is provided with an air inlet one-way valve 9 communicating with the telescopic air storage part 15, wherein the number of the air inlet one-way valves 9 is two, and each air inlet one-way valve 9 is communicated with a telescopic air storage part 15, and the lower surfaces of the opposite ends of the two telescopic air storage parts 15 are provided with an air outlet one-way valve 16 communicating with the cavity at the bottom end of the suction head 7. Therefore, when the telescopic air storage part 15 is stretched, the telescopic air storage part 15 will draw in air from the outside through the air inlet one-way valve 9, and when the telescopic air storage part 15 is compressed, it will be exhausted from the air outlet one-way valve 16 (the air outlet one-way valve 16 can only exhaust to the outside, and the air inlet one-way valve 9 can only take air into the telescopic air storage part 15).
[0049] Two air outlet channels 21 connected to the air outlet one-way valve 16 are relatively opened in the middle of the cavity of the suction head 7. Therefore, when the telescopic air storage part 15 discharges gas from the air outlet one-way valve 16, it will eventually enter the cavity at the bottom end of the suction head 7 through the air outlet channel 21, and the sealing component is arranged on the inner wall of the cavity of the suction head 7 between the air outlet of the air outlet channel 21 and the opening of the power mounting groove 14. Therefore, through the setting of the sealing component, the cavity inside the suction head 7 can be divided into two parts. The side of the power plate 18 close to the air inlet one-way valve 9 is fixedly connected to the first tension spring 17, and the end of the first tension spring 17 away from the power plate 18 is fixedly connected to the inner side surface of the telescopic air storage part 15. The outer peripheral surface of the telescopic air storage part 15 contacts the inner wall of the power mounting groove 14. Therefore, when the power plate 18 slides in the power mounting groove 14, the telescopic air storage part 15 will be prompted to contract or stretch.
[0050] The sealing component includes a mounting plate 22 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity of the suction head 7, and a sealing mounting groove is provided on the upper surface of the mounting plate 22. A second tension spring 24 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of the sealing mounting groove, and an auxiliary sealing plate 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the second tension spring 24. The lower surface of the auxiliary sealing plate 23 abuts against the mounting plate 22, and a connecting port 25 connected to the sealing mounting groove is provided on the lower surface of the mounting plate 22. Through the setting of the connecting port 25, the cavity below the mounting plate 22 can be connected to the cavity above, but through the setting of the auxiliary sealing plate 23, the entire cavity of the suction head 7 can be temporarily sealed.
[0051] When the solenoid valve controls the negative pressure generator to connect with the suction head 7, negative pressure will be generated in the cavity above the mounting plate 22, so that the air at normal atmospheric pressure below the mounting plate 22 will enter through the connecting port 25 and then push open the auxiliary sealing plate 23 to enter above the mounting plate 22, so that the cavity below the mounting plate 22 will form a negative pressure state, and the suction head 7 will grab the electronic components through the negative pressure.
[0052] At the same time, when the air above the mounting plate 22 is being drawn away, the power plates 18 in the two power mounting slots 14 will also move closer to each other due to the negative pressure (the first tension spring 17 will be stretched at this time), thereby prompting the telescopic air storage part 15 to stretch. When the telescopic air storage part 15 is stretched, air will be inhaled from the outside through the air intake one-way valve 9, so that outside air will enter the telescopic air storage part 15.
[0053] When the solenoid valve switches the air blowing pipe, the air blowing pipe is connected to the suction head 7, and then air is blown into the suction head 7. However, the setting of the auxiliary sealing plate 23 can block the air blown in from above the mounting plate 22 from entering below the mounting plate 22, thereby effectively preventing the continuously incoming air from acting on the electronic components, and thus effectively preventing the electronic components from being skewed or the pins from being misaligned due to the continuously blown air.
[0054] When the solenoid valve switches the air blowing pipe, the air blowing pipe is connected to the suction head 7, and then air is blown into the suction head 7, thereby destroying the negative pressure state above the mounting plate 22. At this time, the first tension spring 17 will pull the power plate 18 to return to its initial position. When the power plate 18 returns to its initial position, it will squeeze the telescopic air storage part 15, so that the air in the telescopic air storage part 15 will be discharged from the air outlet one-way valve 16, and finally enter the cavity below the mounting plate 22 through the air outlet duct 21, thereby promoting the negative pressure state in the cavity below the mounting plate 22. At the same time, because in the initial setting, the amount of air inhaled by the two telescopic air storage parts 15 when they are stretched due to the negative pressure state is roughly the same as the amount of air moved from the cavity below the mounting plate 22 to the top of the mounting plate 22, when the power plate 18 returns to its initial position, the air discharged by the two telescopic air storage parts 15 is exhausted after the negative pressure state of the cavity below the mounting plate 22 is released. Therefore, while ensuring the normal operation of the suction head 7, the air blown into the suction head 7 will not affect the electronic components.
[0055] Example 2
[0056] Although the above embodiment can release the negative pressure state of the suction head without affecting the electronic components due to the blowing of air, in order to prevent dust from entering the negative pressure generator in the placement machine, the air entering the suction head is often filtered through a filter. However, after long-term use, the filter often becomes clogged. Therefore, when the filter becomes clogged, the suction force of the suction nozzle will be weakened. Therefore, when the suction nozzle moves with the electronic components, it is easy to become skewed. This embodiment is specially invented to solve the above problem.
[0057] See also Figures 1 to 10 On the basis of the above embodiment, the technical solution adopted includes that the inner top surface of the power installation groove 14 is provided with a push rod moving groove 10, and the inner wall of the cavity of the suction head 7 is provided with a mounting groove 11 connected to the top of the two push rod moving grooves 10 (such as Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown), the outer circumference of the filter screen 13 is fixedly connected to the filter mounting ring 12, the filter mounting ring 12 is rotatably connected in the mounting groove 11, and the outer circumference of the filter mounting ring 12 is evenly provided with a plurality of rotatable push plates 20, and the two push rods 19 are respectively slidably connected in the corresponding push rod moving grooves 10.
[0058] The upper surface and the lower surface of the filter mounting ring 12 are fixedly connected to the limit ring 29, and the limit ring 29 is clamped in the mounting groove 11. Therefore, through the setting of the limit ring 29, the position of the filter mounting ring 12 in the mounting groove 11 can be limited, so that the filter mounting ring 12 can only rotate in the mounting groove 11. Therefore, when the filter mounting ring 12 rotates, it can rotate with the filter screen 13.
[0059] A rotating shaft is inserted into one end of the push plate 20 close to the filter mounting ring 12, and the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the filter mounting ring 12. The outer peripheral surface of the filter mounting ring 12 is evenly provided with reset mounting grooves 31 with the same number as the push plate 20, and the reset mounting grooves 31 are fixedly connected to a third tension spring 30 with one end set on the push plate 20.
[0060] The hinged end of the push plate 20 on one side in the counterclockwise direction can be attached to the filter mounting ring 12 (both the counterclockwise direction and the clockwise direction are Figure 9 As a basis, there is a gap between the hinged end of the push plate 20 on the clockwise side and the filter mounting ring 12; therefore, the initial state of the push plate 20 on the filter mounting ring 12 is that the third tension spring 30 pulls the push plate 20, thereby prompting the push plate 20 to fit tightly against the filter mounting ring 12 on the counterclockwise side. At the same time, because there is a gap between the hinged end of the push plate 20 on the clockwise side and the filter mounting ring 12, the push plate 20 can rotate clockwise on the filter mounting ring 12. At the same time, the setting of the third tension spring 30 can prompt the push plate 20 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby prompting the push plate 20 to return to its initial position.
[0061] The cleaning component includes an auxiliary support box 26 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity of the suction head 7, and the inner side wall of the auxiliary support box 26 is fixedly connected to a scraper 27 with one end in contact with the filter 13. A pull-out collection box 8 is inserted in the middle of the outer circumference of the suction head 7, and the inner end of the collection box 8 is slidably connected to the auxiliary support box 26, wherein one end of the collection box 8 in the counterclockwise direction is in contact with the lower surface of the filter 13, and one end of the collection box 8 in the clockwise direction is rotatably connected to a sealing roller whose outer circumference is in contact with the filter 13, so that dust clogged on the filter 13 will not be scraped off the collection box 8 by the collection box 8 (the direction of rotation of the filter 13 is counterclockwise).
[0062] When the solenoid valve controls the negative pressure generator to be connected to the suction head 7, the two power plates 18 will move relative to each other due to the negative pressure in the cavity of the suction head 7, so that the power plate 18 will move with the push rod 19. When the push rod 19 continues to move, the top end of the push rod 19 will enter the installation groove 11 from the push rod moving groove 10, and then abut against the clockwise side surface of a push plate 20. Therefore, when the push rod 19 continues to move again, a thrust will be generated on the push plate 20. At the same time, because the push plate 20 is in the The initial state of the filter mounting ring 12 is tilted, so the push plate 20 will rotate the filter mounting ring 12 counterclockwise, and the filter mounting ring 12 will rotate with the filter screen 13. When the filter screen 13 rotates counterclockwise, the scraper 27 will scrape the lower surface of the filter screen 13, thereby scraping off the dust adsorbed on the lower surface of the filter screen 13. The scraped dust will fall into the collection box 8, thereby effectively avoiding the filter screen 13 from being blocked and causing the suction head 7 to have unstable negative pressure.
[0063] Example 3
[0064] On the basis of the above embodiment, this embodiment also provides a control system for a placement machine, such as Figure 11 As shown, the following specific steps are included:
[0065] The image acquisition unit collects position images of the PCB board and the components to be mounted, and outputs the collected information to the image processing unit;
[0066] The image processing unit is connected to the image acquisition unit, receives and processes the acquired information, and outputs a control instruction to the motor motion control unit according to the processed information;
[0067] The motor motion control unit is connected to the image processing unit, receives control instructions from the image processing unit, and controls the movement of the placement machine motor according to the control instructions. The above control system is existing technology and will not be described in detail.
[0068] In summary, when the SMT machine and its control system are in use, the air entering the suction head 7 can be filtered through the filter 13, and then the dust adsorbed on the lower surface of the filter 13 can be scraped off by the scraper 27. At the same time, the scraped dust can be collected by the collection box 8.
[0069] By setting the telescopic air storage portion 15, the negative pressure state of the cavity at the bottom end of the suction head 7 can be relieved without affecting the electronic components. At the same time, by setting the push rod 19, power can be provided to the rotation of the filter 13. Therefore, the contraction and expansion of the telescopic air storage portion 15 can solve the clogging problem of the filter 13 while relieving the negative pressure state of the cavity at the bottom end of the suction head 7 without affecting the placement of electronic components, thereby improving the quality of the patch.
