[0025] Some embodiments of the present application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present application and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application.

[0026] Currently, some manufacturers use trays to load chips, then place the trays in corresponding equipment for processing, and manually disassemble and assemble the trays; this method has a low degree of automation and cannot guarantee the efficiency of the tray transfer.

[0027] Therefore, the present application creatively proposes a tray clamping mechanism and a transport device thereof, wherein the tray clamping mechanism comprises a mounting frame, a driving member, a first clamping member and a second clamping member, and the transport device comprises a tray clamping mechanism and a moving mechanism. When disassembling and assembling the tray, the moving mechanism drives the tray clamping mechanism to move to the corresponding position of the clamped member (tray), so that the first clamping member and the second clamping member reach the target position, and then the driving member drives the first clamping member and the second clamping member to approach each other in a predetermined direction, thereby clamping the two ends of the tray along the predetermined direction to ensure the clamping stability of the tray during transportation, and then the moving mechanism drives the tray clamping mechanism to move as a whole, and then the tray is loaded into or removed from the corresponding equipment, thereby improving the transportation efficiency of the tray.

[0028] The present application will be described in detail below through specific embodiments.

[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a disc clamping mechanism, which includes a mounting frame 1, a driving member 2, a first clamping member 3 and a second clamping member 4, wherein: the first clamping member 3 has a first end 31, the second clamping member 4 has a second end 41, and the first end 31 is arranged opposite to the second end 41; the driving member 2 is installed on the mounting frame 1, and is respectively connected to the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 to drive the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 to move in opposite directions along a predetermined direction, thereby driving the first end 31 and the second end 41 to cooperate to clamp or release the clamped member.

[0030] It is understandable that the predetermined direction may be any direction, and may be specifically defined according to conditions such as the clamping point, etc. In this embodiment, the predetermined direction is consistent with the length direction of the extraction plate.

[0031] It should be noted that the reverse movement of the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 means that in the same coordinate system, the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 can move towards each other or away from each other; when they move towards each other, they can clamp the extraction disk 5, and when they move away from each other, they can release the extraction disk 5.

[0032] In this embodiment, the clamped member is a tray 5 for placing chips.

[0033] In some examples, the driving member 2 is a double-slider electric cylinder. Of course, the driving member 2 can also be other driving sources that can drive two components separately.

[0034] It is understandable that the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 can be regular structural members such as long strips, or irregular structural members. The key is to avoid related structures to achieve effective clamping of the extraction plate 5.

[0035] In order to ensure the clamping stability of the extraction plate 5, in this embodiment, the first end 31 is integrally formed with the first clamping member 3, and the second end 41 is integrally formed with the second clamping member 4. Of course, the first end 31 and the first clamping member 3 can also be connected by welding or other methods.

[0036] It should be noted that before disassembling and assembling the extraction tray 5 , the door of the relevant equipment has been opened in advance, so that the extraction tray clamping mechanism can extend into the equipment in advance to clamp and place the extraction tray 5 .

[0037] Specifically, when disassembling the extraction tray 5, the extraction tray clamping mechanism has extended into the corresponding position inside the equipment, and then the driving member 2 is operated to drive the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 to move in opposite directions, thereby driving the first end 31 and the second end 41 to approach each other to clamp the extraction tray 5, and then the extraction tray clamping mechanism is moved as a whole, thereby driving the extraction tray 5 to be separated from the equipment, and finally the extraction tray 5 is moved out of the equipment; conversely, when loading the extraction tray 5 into the equipment, the extraction tray 5 is first clamped by the extraction tray clamping mechanism, and then the extraction tray clamping mechanism is driven as a whole to enter the corresponding position inside the equipment, and then the extraction tray 5 is placed in the equipment (the extraction tray 5 and the equipment can be quickly detachably connected through the pressing structure), and finally the extraction tray clamping mechanism is moved out of the equipment, thereby avoiding manual placement of the extraction tray 5 throughout the process, improving the degree of automation of the placement of the extraction tray 5, and ultimately improving the transportation efficiency of the extraction tray 5.

[0038] In some examples, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first clamping member 3 has first ends 31 at both ends along the driving direction of the driving member 2, and the second clamping member 4 has second ends 41 at both ends along the driving direction, and one of the first ends 31 is between the two second ends 41, and one of the second ends 41 is between the two first ends 31.

[0039] Specifically, through the cooperation of the two pairs of first ends 31 and second ends 41, stable clamping of the two ends of the extraction tray 5 in a certain direction (usually the length direction) can be achieved, thereby improving the stability of the extraction tray during the entire transportation process and greatly reducing the risk of shaking or falling off of the extraction tray; at the same time, due to the mutual interlacing between the first end 31 and the second end 41, the structure of the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 is more compact, which can adapt to the relatively narrow space inside the equipment, thereby facilitating the rapid clamping and placement of the extraction tray 5.

[0040] Further, in some examples, there is a first preset distance A between the two first ends 31, a second preset distance B between the two second ends 41, and a third preset distance C between the matching first ends 31 and second ends 41; wherein A≥3C, B≥3C.

[0041] It can be understood that, under normal circumstances, the first preset distance A and the second preset distance B are both constant values, and as the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 move relative to the driving member 2, the third preset distance C will change. In order to ensure the clamping efficiency of the extraction tray 5 and avoid collision and scratches of the extraction tray 5 during the clamping process, the first preset distance and the second preset distance are usually more than three times greater than the third preset distance, so as to leave enough space inside the extraction tray 5 and avoid the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 from scratching the inner side of the extraction tray 5 when clamping the extraction tray 5.

[0042] In some examples, reference Figure 2As shown, the first end 31 is provided with an escape portion 311 for avoiding the second clamping member 4, and the first clamping member 3 is arranged in parallel with the second clamping member 4. By arranging the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 in parallel, the structure of the extraction tray clamping mechanism is made more compact; and by arranging the escape portion 311 (a groove structure in this embodiment) at the first end 31, the first end 31 and the second end 41 are arranged opposite to each other, further improving the structural compactness of the extraction tray clamping mechanism.

[0043] As an example and not limitation, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 are both rectangular plate structures, and the first end 31 and the second end 41 are formed respectively by bending the two ends of the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4, and the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 are respectively connected to the two sliders of the driving member 2 through two L-shaped plate structures.

[0044] In some examples, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 are slidably disposed on the mounting frame 1 .

[0045] It should be noted that the mounting frame 1 as a whole is a rectangular parallelepiped structure with an internal space, and a through hole communicating with the internal structure is opened on the corresponding surface.

[0046] Specifically, two sets of slider guide structures 8 are installed on one side surface of the internal space of the mounting frame 1, so that the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 are respectively connected to the mounting structure through a set of slider guide structures 8; in this embodiment, the driving member 2 is also installed in the internal space of the mounting frame 1, and the driving member 2 and the slider guide structure 8 are arranged opposite to each other, ultimately improving the stability of the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 during the movement process.

[0047] In some examples, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the clamping mechanism also includes a bearing beam 6 disposed on the mounting frame 1, and the bearing beam 6 is used to abut against the clamped part. When clamping the extraction tray 5, the bearing beam 6 is extended into the extraction tray 5, and then the bearing beam 6 is raised so that the bearing beam 6 abuts against the inner peripheral edge of the extraction tray 5, so that the bearing beam 6 can support the extraction tray 5.

[0048] Furthermore, in some examples, the load-bearing beam 6 includes a base 61 and a movable body 62 , the base 61 is mounted on the mounting frame 1 , the movable body 62 is slidably disposed on the mounting frame 1 , and the mounting frame 1 is also provided with a first sensor 7 that is detachably in contact with the movable body 62 .

[0049] In this embodiment, the first sensor 7 is a micro switch. A certain number of through holes are opened on the bottom plate of the mounting frame 1, and the linear guide rods 9 with oil-free bushings are passed through the through holes, and then the movable body 62 is connected to the linear guide rods 9, so that the movable body 62 can move within a certain distance relative to the mounting frame 1; at the same time, the movable body 62 can be detachably contacted with the first sensor 7 through at least one linear guide rod 9.

[0050] Specifically, after the load beam 6 abuts against the inner edge of the extraction tray 5, the load beam 6 supports the extraction tray 5. At the same time, the load beam 6 is subjected to the pressure of the extraction tray 5, so that the movable body 62 moves relative to the mounting frame 1, so that the first sensor 7 is separated or released from the movable body 62, thereby realizing the signal transmission of the extraction tray 5 being supported; after the clamping mechanism receives the signal that the extraction tray 5 is supported by the load beam 6, the driving member 2 starts to work, driving the first clamping member 3 and the second clamping member 4 to move to clamp the extraction tray 5. Through the arrangement of the load beam 6 and the first sensor 7, the clamping mechanism will clamp the extraction tray 5 only after it is in stable contact (support) with the extraction tray 5, thereby ensuring the stability of the extraction tray 5 clamping process and reducing the risk of bumping the extraction tray 5 or the extraction tray 5 falling.

[0051] In some examples, at least one substrate 61 is provided on opposite sides of the movable body 62. In this embodiment, the substrates 61 are symmetrically provided on opposite sides of the movable body 62, so that the bearing beam 6 can evenly support the extraction plate 5 and the movable body 62 can be evenly compressed, ensuring stable signal transmission of the first sensor 7.

[0052] In some examples, the first end 31 and / or the second end 41 is provided with an elastic layer. By providing the elastic layer, the clamping margin of the extraction tray 5 can be increased, and even if the extraction tray 5 is too large, the cooperation between the first end 31 and the second end 41 can still achieve stable clamping of the extraction tray 5.

[0053] Exemplarily, an elastic layer is provided on the opposite sides of the first end 31 and the second end 41. In this embodiment, the elastic layer is made of eutectic rubber, and the antistatic coefficient is selected to be 10 7 Up to 10 9 The glue between the Ω can reduce the interference of static electricity on the chip.

[0054] In some examples, a second sensor is provided at the first end 31 and / or the second end 41. In this embodiment, second sensors are respectively embedded at opposite sides of the first end 31 and the second end 41, and the second sensor is a pressure sensor. The first end 31 and the second end 41 cooperate with each other to clamp the extraction tray 5. After receiving a certain pressure signal, the second sensor determines that the first end 31 and the second end 41 have stably clamped the extraction tray 5, thereby preventing the extraction tray 5 from being separated or unstable during the movement.

[0055] In some examples, a third sensor is further installed at the bottom of the mounting frame 1 to detect whether the extraction tray 5 is in place. In this embodiment, the third sensor is an ultrasonic sensor.

[0056] Example 2

[0057] Corresponding to the above-mentioned embodiment 1, the embodiment of the present application also provides a transport device, which includes a tray clamping mechanism and a moving mechanism, the moving mechanism includes a walking assembly and a driving assembly, the tray clamping mechanism is installed on the moving mechanism through the driving assembly, and the moving mechanism is used to drive the tray clamping mechanism to move as a whole.

[0058] In some examples, the walking assembly is a base structure with a driving wheel, and the driving assembly is a mechanical arm structure installed on the base structure. The operation of the driving wheel can drive the walking assembly to move, and then drive the driving assembly and the tray clamping mechanism to move; and the driving assembly can independently drive the tray clamping mechanism to move in space.

[0059] Specifically, when disassembling and assembling the extraction tray 5, the moving mechanism and the extraction tray clamping mechanism are driven by the walking assembly to move to the front of the corresponding equipment, and then the extraction tray clamping mechanism is driven by the driving assembly to move to the corresponding position in the equipment. After the extraction tray clamping mechanism clamps the extraction tray 5, the extraction tray clamping mechanism is driven by the driving assembly to move as a whole, thereby removing or loading the extraction tray 5 into the equipment.

[0060] In some examples, the handling device further includes an opening and closing assembly disposed on the mounting frame 1, and the opening and closing assembly may be a structure such as a mechanical arm, so as to open the device door before the tray clamping mechanism enters the device. The opening and closing assembly may be installed not only on the mounting frame 1, but also at other locations on the handling device that facilitate opening and closing the device door.
