Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automation equipment technology, and in particular to a magazine loading device based on a cleanroom. Background Technology

[0002] Mobile phones are composed of multiple components, some of which, such as keypads, are small and inconvenient to load and unload. To improve loading speed, multiple small components are typically placed on a carrier before processing and assembly. However, in the manufacturing process, some components are still manually loaded onto the equipment. This method is unsuitable for mass production and is inefficient and costly.

[0003] Furthermore, mobile phone components are prone to contamination with powder and dust during processing and production. Given the assembly requirements of mobile phones, the cleanliness of the component surfaces must be ensured, thus necessitating a dust removal process before assembly. However, existing mobile phone component production equipment generally only requires a cleanroom environment, with lower requirements for the equipment itself. This makes the dust generated during production uncontrollable, leading to significant difficulties in subsequent dust removal and impacting overall mobile phone production efficiency.

[0043] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] Example 1

[0045] like Figure 1-13 As shown, a cleanroom-based magazine loading device includes a base frame 1, an upper conveying channel 2, magazines 3, a misalignment transfer module, a carrier extraction mechanism 6, and a carrier conveying channel 7. The upper conveying channel 2 is located above the base frame 1 and is used to convey magazines 3. Multiple carriers are provided inside the magazines 3, along with a locking component 31 that locks the carriers within the magazines 3. The misalignment transfer module is located at the outlet end of the upper conveying channel 2 and includes a transfer mechanism 4 and an unlocking mechanism 5. The transfer mechanism 4 is connected to the upper conveying channel 2 and is used for transfer... The magazine 3 is positioned, and the unlocking mechanism 5 is located on the transfer mechanism 4 to release the locking component 31 from locking the vehicle inside the magazine 3. The vehicle extraction mechanism 6 is located above the base frame 1 to extract the vehicle from the magazine 3 and place it into the vehicle transport channel 7. The vehicle transport channel 7 is located behind the vehicle extraction mechanism 6 and is used to transport the vehicle. Above the base frame 1, there is also an upper frame 11 covering the space above the base frame 1. The top of the upper frame 11 is provided with at least one fan filter unit 12 that communicates with the space inside the upper frame 11. The fan filter unit 12 combines the fan and filter into one unit, which is easy to install and remove, highly reusable, and its unique negative pressure ventilation function ensures the sealing and safety of the upper frame.

[0046] like Figure 1-2As shown, the platform 101 at the top of the base frame 1 is provided with multiple ventilation holes, and the sum of the areas of the multiple ventilation holes on the platform is not less than 20% of the total area of ​​the platform; the bottom plate at the bottom of the base frame is also provided with multiple ventilation holes, and the sum of the areas of the multiple ventilation holes on the bottom plate is not less than 20% of the total area of ​​the bottom plate. In addition, to improve safety, ventilation plates are installed on the ventilation holes, and the ventilation plates are densely covered with multiple small air holes.

[0047] In addition, such as Figure 1 As shown, apart from the openings for the upper conveyor channel 2 and the carrier conveyor channel 7, the remaining areas on the upper shelf 11 are sealed by dustproof doors. These doors are connected to the main frame of the upper shelf via hinges, which are dustproof, making the loading space within the upper shelf a dust-free environment. This removes dust generated during loading and previous processes, reducing the difficulty of subsequent dust removal, improving production efficiency, and ensuring production quality. The magazine loading equipment of this invention not only meets the equipment usage standards of a Class 100 cleanroom but also automatically and in batches loads materials, saving labor costs and significantly improving production quality and efficiency.

[0048] like Figure 2-3 As shown in Figure 13, the upper conveying channel 2 is provided in multiple parallel configurations above the base frame 1. The base frame 1 also has multiple parallel lower conveying channels 8. In this embodiment, there are two upper conveying channels 2 and two lower conveying channels 8. The lower conveying channels 8 are located below the upper conveying channels 2 and are used to convey empty magazines 3. The lower conveying channels 8 correspond one-to-one with the upper conveying channels 2 and are suspended below the platform 101 at the top of the base frame 1 via connecting components. Specifically, as shown... Figure 13 As shown, the connecting assembly includes a lower support plate 81 and multiple connecting rods 82. Multiple lower conveying channels 8 are fixed on the lower support plate 81. One end of each of the multiple connecting rods 82 is connected to the platform 101 at the top of the base frame 1, and the other end is connected to the lower support plate 81.

[0049] like Figure 4As shown, the upper conveying channel 2 includes two oppositely arranged conveying beams 21. Each conveying beam 21 is equipped with multiple rollers 211 and a drive assembly 212 for driving the rollers 211 to rotate. The outer side of each roller 211 has multiple axially arranged grooves, and wear-resistant rings 2111 protruding from the outer surface of each groove are inlaid. This roller structure for conveying the magazine 3 reduces friction between the rollers and the magazine, thereby reducing dust generated during conveying. Each conveying beam 21 comprises two conveying sub-beams, both of which can be driven independently. One conveying sub-beam is mainly used for conveying the magazine, while the other conveying sub-beam is mainly used for docking with the transfer channel, separating the conveying and transfer of the magazine and improving production efficiency. Furthermore, for convenient loading, a support channel docking with the conveying beam can be provided at the inlet end of the upper conveying channel. This support channel is not connected to the drive assembly. The conveying channel of this invention adopts a sprocket and chain drive structure. The chain is protected by sheet metal isolation. All aluminum and steel parts used must be surface treated. The surface of sheet metal parts must be mirror treated. All standard parts selected are dustproof models.

[0050] like Figure 4 As shown, of the two conveying beams 21, one is a fixed conveying beam, fixed to one end of the mounting base 24 by multiple fixed seats 22 located below the conveying beam 21. The other conveying beam 21 is a movable conveying beam, fixed to the other end of the mounting base 24 by multiple movable seats 23 located below the conveying beam 21. The mounting base 24 is mounted on a platform 101 on the top of the base frame 1, and the top of the mounting base 24 is provided with an elongated groove 241 arranged along the width direction of the upper conveying channel. The bottom of the movable seat 23 is provided with a slide table that is slidably connected to the elongated groove 241. By adjusting the position of the movable seat 23 in the elongated groove, the distance between the two conveying beams 21 can be adjusted, thereby accommodating the conveying of magazines of different widths, providing good flexibility.

[0051] The lower conveying channel, carrier conveying channel and upper conveying channel of the present invention have similar or identical structures, and will not be described in detail here.

[0052] like Figure 7-9As shown, the transfer mechanism 4 includes a transfer seat 41 and a transfer channel 42. The transfer channel 42 is located above the transfer seat 41 and includes two opposing transfer beams 421. Each transfer beam 421 is provided with multiple rollers 211 and a drive assembly 4211 that drives the multiple rollers 211 to rotate. Adjacent rollers 211 on the transfer beam are provided with rollers 4212 that are not connected to the drive assembly 4211, which improves the support force of the transfer channel on the magazine during transfer and prevents deformation of the bottom of the magazine 3. In addition, one of the two transfer beams 421 is fixedly connected to the transfer seat 41, and the other transfer beam 421 can move along the width direction of the transfer channel through an adjustment structure. This adjustment mechanism is also a long groove sliding adjustment mechanism, which is adapted to the upper conveying channel 2 and the lower conveying channel 8.

[0053] like Figure 7-9As shown, the transfer mechanism 4 also includes a positioning assembly 43 disposed between the two transfer beams 421. The positioning assembly 43 includes a lifting cylinder 431, a support base 432, a pushing cylinder 433, a positioning seat 434, a stop block 435, and a buffer seat 436. The lifting cylinder 431 is fixed on the transfer base 41, and its output end is provided with a support base 432 for supporting the magazine 3. The middle of the support base 432 is provided with a pushing cylinder 433, and the output end of the pushing cylinder 433 is provided with a positioning seat 434. A buffer seat 436 is provided above the end of the positioning seat 434 near the inlet of the transfer channel 42. The punch seat 436 is U-shaped, and a stop block 435 is inserted into its U-shaped opening. The stop block 435 is L-shaped, and its corner is hinged to one end of the buffer seat 436. A spring 437 is fixed to the other end of the buffer seat 436 at the lower end of its horizontal end plate. A positioning cylinder 438 is provided at the end of its vertical end plate. A protruding stop part 4351 is provided at the top of the end of the horizontal end plate of the stop block 435. The positioning cylinder 438 is fixed above the positioning seat 434. Its output end is provided with a buffer sleeve that abuts against the vertical end plate of the stop plate 4351. The extension and retraction direction of the positioning cylinder 438 is the same as the conveying direction of the transfer channel 42. During transfer, the transfer channel 42 connects with the upper conveying channel 2 or the lower conveying channel 8. The magazine moves from the upper conveying channel 2 or the lower conveying channel 8 onto the transfer channel. At this time, the positioning cylinder 438 is in the extended state, and the horizontal end plate of the stop plate 435 is movable and can rotate around the hinged position of the buffer seat 436. The side of the stop part 4351 near the upper conveying channel 2 or the lower conveying channel 8 is inclined. When the stop plate 435 collides with the magazine 3, the stop part 4351 retracts under pressure without obstruction. The magazine 3 is stopped by the stop part 435, which presses down on the spring 437. The spring 437 can buffer the pressure and reduce the impact, ensuring smooth magazine transfer. Then, the push cylinder 433 is activated to push the magazine 3 to the unlock position. The lifting cylinder 431 is activated, and the support base 432 rises, supporting the magazine 3 and separating it from the transfer channel 42. At the same time, the positioning cylinder 438 retracts, restricting the stop part 4351 of the stop plate 435 from retracting. The stop plate 435 blocks the end of the magazine 3, positioning the magazine 3 in preparation for unlocking.

[0054] like Figure 2-3As shown in Figure 7, the misaligned transfer module also includes a translation mechanism 9. The translation mechanism 9 is used to drive the transfer mechanism 4 to move. It includes a translation component one and a translation component two. The translation component one is located inside the base frame 1 and includes a translation seat 91 and a Z-axis slide module 92 located on the upper end of the translation seat 91. A slide rail one fixed on the translation seat 91 is also provided below the Z-axis slide module 92. The translation component two is located on the translation component one and includes a Y-axis slide module 93. The lower end of the Y-axis slide module 93 extends into the base frame 1, and its output end is connected to the transfer mechanism 4. In this embodiment, the translation direction of the Z-axis slide module 92 is the same as the arrangement direction of the multiple upper conveying channels 2, and the Y-axis changing module 93 is set in the vertical direction. Through the setting of the translation mechanism 9, the transfer channel 42 can be connected with any upper conveying channel 2 or lower conveying channel 8 to realize multi-station loading and unloading of the magazine 3 and the cyclic conveying of the magazine, thereby improving the loading and unloading efficiency.

[0055] Example 2

[0056] Based on the structure of Example 1, such as Figure 5 As shown, the magazine 3 also includes an outer box 32, which is a frame-shaped box with openings at both ends. It has multiple slots for inserting vehicles inside. Two sets of locking components 31 are provided, located at the openings of the outer box 21 and arranged diagonally. Each locking component 31 includes a locking rod 311, a rotating handle 312, and a rotating shaft 313. The locking rod 311 protrudes from both ends of the outer box 32, and each end is fixedly connected to a rotating handle 312. The other end of the rotating handle 312 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 313. The other end of the rotating shaft 313 is inserted into the outer box 32 and rotatably connected to it. The flat sides of the upper and lower ends of the outer box 32 have locking holes 321 that cooperate with the locking rod 311. The locking holes 321 are arc-shaped holes. When the locking rod 311 is engaged in the locking hole 321, it locks the vehicle inside the outer box 32.
