Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automated packaging, and in particular to a material tube packaging device. Background Art

[0002] To facilitate the transportation of large quantities of semiconductor devices, processed semiconductor devices need to be packaged into trays or tubes. The trays or tubes are then packed into bags, which are then packed into boxes. Automated packaging equipment exists for bagging and boxing trays, but tubes are still packaged manually. Trays are round and relatively flat, while tubes are straight and slender. This difference in shape makes it difficult to directly apply equipment used for packaging trays to tubes. Automating the packaging of tubes is a pressing issue. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the present invention provides a material tube packaging device that can realize automatic packaging of material tubes.

[0004] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the material tube packaging equipment includes: a capping module, including a capping table, a capping driving mechanism and a capping unit, the capping table is used to place a tube group, the tube group includes multiple material tubes, the capping unit is located on the side of the capping table, the capping unit is used to take end caps, one end of the end cap is closed and the other end is provided with an opening for allowing the tube group to pass through, the capping driving mechanism can drive the capping unit to move relative to the capping table so that the end cap is sleeved on the end of the tube group; a bag supply module is used to carry packaging bags and open the bag openings of the packaging bags; a sealing module is used to seal the packaging bags containing the tube group and the end caps; a box supply module is used to carry packaging boxes; a transfer module, the transfer module is used to: transfer the tube group with the end caps to the packaging bag at the bag supply module, transfer the packaging bag with the material tubes to the sealing module, and transfer the sealed packaging bag to the packaging box at the box supply module.

[0005] The tube packaging equipment according to an embodiment of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects: the equipment can place tubes into packaging bags and then place the packaging bags into packaging boxes. Before the tube group is placed in the packaging bag, the end caps prevent the multiple tubes in the tube group from completely dispersing. Furthermore, because the end caps cover the end faces of the tubes, they prevent the end faces of the tubes from directly contacting the packaging bag after the tube group is placed in the packaging bag, thereby reducing the risk of the tubes puncturing the packaging bag. Prior art equipment for packaging trays does not include a cover module. Because trays are relatively flat and round, the risk of their edges puncturing the packaging bag is low, and packaging bags typically only accommodate one tray, so trays do not require end caps. The present invention, however, takes into account the differences between tube and tray packaging and adds a cover module to the existing technology. This equipment not only automates the packaging of tubes but also reduces the risk of bag damage, ensuring the quality of tube packaging.

[0006] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the cover removing unit includes: a cover removing mechanism for sucking or clamping the end cover; two cover opening members, which are arranged on the periphery of the cover removing mechanism, and are used to suck the outer surface of the end cover or to abut against the inner surface of the end cover; a cover opening mechanism, which is used to drive the two cover opening members to move away from each other and towards each other, and when the two cover opening members move away from each other, the opening is opened by the cover opening members.

Those skilled in the art can determine the specific meaning of the above words in the present application in combination with the specific content of the technical solutions.

[0055] Figure 1 A tube packing device (hereinafter referred to as "device" for short, corresponding to reference numeral "101") of one embodiment of the present application is shown, Figure 2 The positions of the modules of the device 101 are shown in a top view. As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The device 101 includes a machine table 118, a feeding table 102, a detection module 103, a cover module 104, a desiccant supply module 106, a humidity card supply module 105, a bag supply module 116, a sealing module 113, a bag folding module 112, a box supply module 108, a tape supply module 119, a first labeling module 110, a second labeling module 115, a discharging table 109, and a transfer module.

[0056] The transfer module can be used to transfer tubes, packaging bags, packaging boxes, etc. In the present embodiment, the transfer module can include a first mechanical arm 117, a second mechanical arm 107, a third mechanical arm 114, and a fourth mechanical arm 111. The functions of each mechanical arm will be described in detail below. In other embodiments not shown, the number of mechanical arms included in the transfer module can also be appropriately increased or decreased, as long as all the mechanical arms can collectively achieve all the functions of the transfer module. The mechanical arm can include an arm segment and a mechanical arm end. The mechanical arm end can include one or more of a suction cup, a supporting plate, and a clamping jaw.

[0057] The shape of the tube 203 can refer to Figure 3 Before the device 101 is operated, the user needs to place the unpacked tube 203 on the feeding table 102. The tube 203 includes a tube body and two tube plugs, which are detachably connected to the two ends of the tube body. The tube body is straight, and can be made of plastic or metal. The tube body has a channel that penetrates through both ends. The channel can accommodate semiconductor devices, and the tube plugs seal both ends of the channel to prevent the semiconductor devices from leaking out of the channel. In the present application, unless otherwise specified, the tube 203 is in a state where it has been loaded with semiconductor devices, and both ends of the channel have been sealed by the tube plugs.

[0058] In the present embodiment, a plurality of tubes 203 are packed in the same packing bag, and each packing box is used to contain one packing bag. The whole work flow of the device 101 for packing the tubes 203 is roughly as follows: after the user places the unpacked tubes 203 on the feeding table 102, the transfer module transfers the tubes 203 from the feeding table 102 to the detection module 103, and the detection module 103 detects the semiconductor devices in the tubes 203. After the detection is completed, the tubes 203 are transferred to the capping module 104, and the capping module 104 caps one end cap 306 on each end of a tube group 320 formed by the plurality of tubes 203. As shown in Figure 7 , the tube group 320 includes the plurality of tubes 203, and one end cap 306 can cap the plurality of tubes 203; in another aspect, the tube group 320 includes the plurality of tubes 203 that need to be packed in the same packing bag. Before the end cap 306 is capped, the desiccant pack 404 provided by the desiccant supply module 106 and the humidity card 409 provided by the humidity card supply module 105 are taken away by the transfer module and placed on the tube group 320. After the end cap 306 is capped, the transfer module places the tube group 320 capped with the end cap 306 and the desiccant pack 404 and the humidity card 409 in the packing bag at the bag supply module 116 (the bag opening of the packing bag has been opened in advance). After the tube group 320 is placed in the packing bag, the transfer module transfers the packing bag containing the tubes 203 to the sealing module 113, and the sealing module 113 seals the bag opening of the packing bag. After the bag opening is sealed, the transfer module transfers the packing bag to the bag folding module 112, and the bag folding module 112 folds the edges of the packing bag. After the bag folding is completed, the transfer module places the packing bag in the packing box at the box supply module 108. After the packing box is sealed, the transfer module transfers the packing box to the first labeling module 110, and the first labeling module 110 labels the outer surface of the packing box. Finally, the labeled packing box is transferred to the unloading table 109 by the transfer module.

[0059] As shown in Figure 3 , the detection module 103 includes a detection rack 202, a detection table 208, a transfer mechanism 206, and a detection unit. The bottom of the detection rack 202 is fixed to the machine table 118, and the transfer mechanism 206 is installed on the detection rack 202. The detection table 208 is used to place the tubes 203 to be detected, and the transfer module can transfer the tubes 203 on the feeding table 102 to the detection table 208. More specifically, as shown in Figure 1As shown, the transfer module includes a first robotic arm 117. The first robotic arm 117 can be located at the front side of the detection module 103 and adjacent to the loading platform 102. The robotic arm end (not shown) of the first robotic arm 117 can include a suction cup, which is used to suck up the material tube 203. The first robotic arm 117 takes one material tube 203 at a time. The transfer mechanism 206 is used to drive the detection platform 208 to move relative to the detection unit, so that the material tube 203 on the detection platform 208 moves along the length direction of the material tube 203 itself, and the material tube 203 gradually passes through the detection unit. The transfer mechanism 206 can adopt a screw module, a belt module, or the like for driving an object to perform linear motion. As shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the transfer mechanism 206 drives the inspection platform 208 and the material tube 203 on the inspection platform 208 to move in a left-right direction. The material tube 203 is transparent, for example, made of transparent plastic. The inspection unit may include a camera 207, which is fixed to the inspection frame 202 and located to the side of the movement path of the inspection platform 208 and facing the movement path of the inspection platform 208. As the material tube 203 on the inspection platform 208 gradually moves to the right and passes by the camera 207, the camera 207 can capture an image of each semiconductor device in the material tube 203, thereby determining the total number of semiconductor devices in the material tube 203 and detecting whether any semiconductor devices have defects. In addition, the detection unit may also include an optical fiber sensor (not shown), which is fixed to the detection frame 202. When the detection platform 208 moves to the left, the semiconductor devices in the material tube 203 will pass through the optical fiber sensor. The pins of the semiconductor devices can block the light emitted by the optical fiber sensor. The optical fiber sensor can detect the total number of semiconductor devices in the material tube 203 based on the number of times the light is blocked. The control system (not shown) of the device 101 can compare the total number of semiconductor devices measured by the camera 207 and the total number of semiconductor devices measured by the optical fiber sensor. If the numbers measured by the above two methods are consistent, it can be considered that the measured number is correct. Measuring the number of semiconductor devices separately by two methods is conducive to improving measurement accuracy.

[0060] like Figure 3As shown, the inspection module 103 also includes a transfer drive mechanism 201 and a transfer suction cup 209. The transfer drive mechanism 201 is mounted on top of the inspection frame 202 and is used to drive the transfer suction cup 209 up and down. The transfer drive mechanism 201 and the transfer suction cup 209 are used to transfer the material tube 203 from the inspection module 103 to the cover module 104. As described above, the inspection platform 208 and the material tube 203 on the inspection platform 208 gradually move to the left and pass through the inspection unit. Therefore, after the inspection of the material tube 203 is completed, the inspection platform 208 and the material tube 203 on the inspection platform 208 will be located below the transfer suction cup 209. Subsequently, the transfer drive mechanism 201 drives the transfer suction cup 209 to descend, and the transfer suction cup 209 absorbs the material tube 203 on the inspection platform 208. After the material tube 203 on the inspection table 208 is sucked by the transfer suction cup 209, the transfer drive mechanism 201 drives the transfer suction cup 209 to rise, the inspection table 208 returns to its original position (moves to the right), and the capping platform 305 of the capping module 104 moves to below the transfer suction cup 209. Subsequently, the transfer drive mechanism 201 drives the transfer suction cup 209 to descend and place the material tube 203 on the capping platform 305.

[0061] like Figure 3 As shown, the inspection module 103 also includes a temporary storage table 204 and a temporary storage drive mechanism 205. The temporary storage table 204 is located within the inspection frame 202 and is used to store the material tubes 203. If a material tube 203 containing the same number of semiconductor devices as the preset maximum number is called a full tube, and a material tube containing less than the preset maximum number of semiconductor devices is called an underfilled tube, then the capping module 104 and subsequent modules can process underfilled tubes after processing the full tubes. The temporary storage table 204 can be used to store underfilled tubes, and underfilled tubes on the temporary storage table 204 can also be transferred to subsequent modules for packaging. The preset maximum number refers to the maximum number of semiconductor devices that can be loaded into the material tube 203.

[0062] The temporary storage drive mechanism 205 is used to drive the temporary storage table 204 to move back and forth relative to the inspection frame 202, allowing the inspection frame 202 to extend from and retract into the inspection frame 202. The transfer drive mechanism 201 can also transfer the material tube 203 from the inspection table 208 to the temporary storage table 204. Specifically, after the transfer suction cup 209 absorbs the material tube 203 from the inspection table 208, the transfer drive mechanism 201 drives the transfer suction cup 209 to rise, the inspection table 208 returns to its original position, and the temporary storage table 204 extends backward. Subsequently, the transfer drive mechanism 201 drives the transfer suction cup 209 to descend, placing the material tube 203 on the temporary storage table 204.

[0063] like Figure 4As shown, the capping module 104 includes a capping platform 305, a capping drive mechanism, and a capping unit 303. The capping platform 305 is used to place a tube assembly 320, which includes multiple material tubes 203 (two or more). The capping unit 303 is located on the side of the capping platform 305 and is used to remove end caps 306 (for example, grabbing end caps 306 or sucking end caps 306). The capping drive mechanism can drive the capping unit 303 to move relative to the capping platform 305, thereby fitting the end caps 306 onto the ends of the tube assembly 320. More specifically, in this embodiment, the capping units 303 are located at both ends of the capping platform 305. The capping drive mechanism can drive the two capping units 303 to move closer to each other, so that the two end caps 306 are simultaneously fitted onto the ends of the tube assembly 320, thereby improving the efficiency of fitting the end caps 306 onto the tube assembly 320. In other embodiments not shown, only one capping unit 303 may be provided. This single capping unit 303 first puts the end cap 306 on one end of the tube group 320 and then puts the end cap 306 on the other end of the tube group 320 .

[0064] The arrangement of the material tubes 203 in the tube assembly 320 and the shape of the end caps 306 are first introduced below. Figure 7 Three different types of tube sets 320 are shown, Figure 7 in, perpendicular to Figure 7 The direction of the paper is the length direction of the material tube 203. Figure 7 As shown in (a), if a packaging bag needs to package seven material tubes 203, then the seven material tubes 203 can be arranged into three layers, with the top layer containing one material tube 203 and each row in the remaining two layers containing three material tubes 203. Figure 7 As shown in (b), if a packaging bag needs to package six material tubes 203, the six material tubes 203 can be arranged in two layers, each layer containing three material tubes 203. The end cap 306 can be made of polypropylene. In other embodiments, the end cap 306 can also be made of other types of plastics or rubber. Figure 6 As shown, one end of the end cap 306 is closed, and the other end of the end cap 306 is provided with an opening 319 for the tube group 320 to pass through. When viewed from the back to the front, the end cap 306 can be trapezoidal. One end of the end cap 306 is provided with an opening 319, and the opening 319 of the end cap 306 is rectangular. When the end cap 306 is placed on the end of the tube group 320, the edge of the opening 319 of the end cap 306 surrounds all the material tubes 203. Figure 7 As shown in (c), if a packaging bag needs to package five material tubes 203, then the five material tubes 203 can be arranged in one layer, and compared to Figure 7 (a) and Figure 7 The material pipe 203 in (b) and the material pipe 203 in 7 (c) are rotated 90 degrees. It should be noted that Figure 7Only several arrangements of the material tubes 203 are shown. The number of material tubes 203 included in the tube set 320 and the arrangement of the material tubes 203 are not limited to Figure 7 The contents shown are not given as examples here one by one.

[0065] Before the tube assembly 320 is placed in the packaging bag, the end cap 306 can prevent the multiple material tubes 203 in the tube assembly 320 from completely dispersing. Furthermore, because the end cap 306 can cover the end surfaces of the material tubes 203, after the tube assembly 320 is placed in the packaging bag, the end cap 306 can prevent the end surfaces of the material tubes 203 from directly contacting the packaging bag, thereby reducing the risk of the material tubes 203 puncturing the packaging bag.

[0066] If the packaging bag is damaged, the vacuum environment inside the packaging bag will be destroyed, resulting in the storage environment of the semiconductor device failing to meet the preset requirements, thereby increasing the risk of semiconductor device failure and damage. For the equipment used to package the material tray in the prior art, it is not provided with a cover module 104. Because the material tray is relatively flat and round, the risk of its edge puncturing the packaging bag is low. As for the material tube 203, its end is relatively sharp, and the risk of the material tube 203 puncturing the packaging bag is higher than that of the material tray. Therefore, directly using the equipment used to package the material tray in the prior art to package the material tube 203 may cause the packaging bag to be damaged, thereby affecting the packaging quality and increasing the risk of semiconductor device failure or damage. The present invention adds a cover module 104 on the basis of the prior art. The equipment 101 of the present invention can not only automatically package the material tube 203, but also reduce the risk of packaging bag damage.

[0067] The following will continue to introduce the cover module 104. Figure 4 As shown, the cap storage area 321 of the machine 118 stores multiple rows of end caps 306, and can store end caps 306 of different sizes to adapt to different types of tube sets 320. In the cap storage area 321, the end caps 306 are stacked, and the upper end cap 306 is placed on top of the lower end cap 306. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The cover drive mechanism includes a three-axis mobile platform 301, a cover frame 307, a closing drive unit 302, and a flip unit. The three-axis mobile platform 301 is installed on the top of the detection frame 202. The three-axis mobile platform 301 is connected to the cover frame 307 and can drive the cover frame 307 to move. The closing drive unit 302 and the flip unit are both installed on the cover frame 307. Each flip unit is connected to a cover removal unit 303. The closing drive unit 302 is used to drive the two flip units to move closer to each other and away from each other, so that the two cover removal units 303 can move closer to each other and away from each other. The closing drive unit 302 can adopt a belt module.

[0068] The turnover unit is used to drive the cap taking unit 303 to rotate relative to the cover frame 307, so as to switch the posture of the cap taking unit 303. As shown in Figure 5 The turnover unit can include a fixed frame 317, a movable frame 316, a turnover motor 318 and a transmission assembly 309. The turnover motor 318 and the transmission assembly 309 are installed on the fixed frame 317, the fixed frame 317 is slidably installed on the cover frame 307, the movable frame 316 is rotationally connected with the fixed frame 317, the cap taking unit 303 is installed on the movable frame 316, the turnover motor 318 is connected with the movable frame 316 through the transmission assembly 309, and the turnover motor 318 can drive the movable frame 316 to rotate relative to the fixed frame 317. The transmission assembly 309 can be a combination of a belt and a pulley, a gear set, etc.

[0069] In some embodiments, the cap taking unit 303 includes a cap taking mechanism, two cap opening members and a cap opening mechanism. The cap taking mechanism is used to suck or clamp the end cap 306. For example, the cap taking mechanism can include a suction cup for sucking the outer side surface of the end cap 306; for another example, the cap taking mechanism can include a set of clamping jaws for clamping the outer side surface of the end cap 306. The two cap opening members are arranged at the periphery of the cap taking mechanism, and are used to suck the outer side surface of the end cap 306 or abut against the inner side surface of the end cap 306. The cap opening mechanism is used to drive the two cap opening members to move away from each other and move close to each other. When the two cap opening members move away from each other, the opening 319 is opened by the cap opening members. The opening of the opening 319 facilitates the insertion of the end of the tube 203 into the end cap 306.

[0070] Specifically, as shown in Figure 5 The cap taking unit 303 can include a cap taking suction cup 314, two cap opening clamping jaws 322 and a clamping jaw opening and closing mechanism. The two jaw blocks 313 of the cap opening clamping jaws 322 in this embodiment are the two cap opening members, which abut against the inner side surface of the end cap 306 (specifically, the jaw blocks 313 hook the two side edges of the opening 319), the clamping jaw opening and closing mechanism in this embodiment is the cap opening mechanism, and the cap taking suction cup 314 in this embodiment is the cap taking mechanism.

[0071] The cap taking suction cup 314 is used to suck the closed end of the end cap 306, which is arranged opposite to the opening 319 of the end cap 306. For example, if the opening 319 is located at the bottom of the end cap 306, the cap taking suction cup 314 is used to suck the top of the end cap 306. The cap opening clamping jaws 322 include two jaw blocks 313, which are arranged at the periphery of the cap taking suction cup 314. The end of the jaw block 313 away from the cap taking suction cup 314 is hook-shaped, and the two jaw blocks 313 are used to hook the two side edges of the opening 319, respectively. Figure 6As shown, when the capping drive mechanism drives the cap removal unit 303 toward the end of the tube assembly 320, the two cap removal suction cups 314 are positioned toward each other, and the two sets of cap opening and closing claws 322 are positioned toward each other. The claw opening and closing mechanism is used to drive the two claw blocks 313 to open and close relative to each other. When the two claw blocks 313 open relative to each other, the opening 319 can be pulled open by the cap opening and closing claws 322. After the opening 319 is pulled open by the cap opening and closing claws 322, it becomes larger, which helps reduce friction between the end cap 306 and the material tube 203 during the application of the end cap 306, making it easier to apply the end cap 306 to the end of the tube assembly 320.

[0072] like Figure 5 As shown, the claw opening and closing mechanism includes a claw telescopic cylinder 312, a claw opening and closing motor 308, a screw rod 315, a center block 310, and a connecting rod 311. The claw opening and closing motor 308 is mounted on a movable frame 316, and the screw rod 315 is threadedly connected to the center block 310. The claw opening and closing motor 308 can drive the screw rod 315 to rotate, thereby causing the center block 310 to move axially along the screw rod 315. The connecting rod 311 is inclined, and the top end of the connecting rod 311 is rotatably connected to the center block 310, and the bottom end of the connecting rod 311 is rotatably connected to the claw telescopic cylinder 312, and the claw telescopic cylinder 312 is slidably connected to the movable frame 316. As the center block 310 moves, the two claw telescopic cylinders 312 will move closer to or further away from each other. Each claw extension cylinder 312 is connected to a claw block 313. The claw extension cylinder 312 is used to drive the claw block 313 to extend and retract. The extension direction of the claw block 313 is perpendicular to the adsorption surface of the cover removal suction cup 314. The sliding direction of the claw extension cylinder 312 relative to the movable frame 316 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the claw block 313. Figure 5 In the figure, the adsorption surface is the bottom surface of the cover removal suction cup 314.

[0073] by Figure 5 Taking the state shown as a reference, the process of the cover-opening claw 322 opening the opening 319 of the end cover 306 is roughly as follows: after the cover-removing suction cup 314 sucks the end cover 306, the claw-opening and closing motor 308 drives the screw 315 to rotate, causing the center block 310 to move upward; accordingly, the two claw-opening and closing cylinders 312 approach each other; then, the claw-opening and closing cylinders 312 drive the claw block 313 to move upward, so that the bottom end of the claw block 313 hooks the edge of the opening 319 of the end cover 306; next, the claw-opening and closing motor 308 drives the screw 315 to rotate, causing the center block 310 to move downward, and accordingly, the two claw-opening and closing cylinders 312 move away from each other, and the two claw blocks 313 open the opening 319. The process of the cover-opening and closing claw 322 releasing the end cover 306 is the opposite of the above process and is not repeated here.

[0074] The working process of the cover module 104 is as follows. First, the cover suction cup 314 and the cover pulling claw 322 are both facing downwards (such as Figure 5As shown in FIG. 6, under the driving of the cap driving mechanism, the cap suction disc 314 moves to the cap storage area 321 and sucks one end cap 306. Subsequently, the cap opening 319 is pulled open by the cap opening claw 322, and the turning unit drives the cap opening claw 322 and the cap suction disc 314 to rotate together, so that the orientations of the cap opening claw 322 and the cap suction disc 314 are both changed to the horizontal direction (as shown in FIG. 7). Figure 6 Next, the cap driving mechanism drives the two cap suction units 303 to move towards each other, so as to cover the two end caps 306 on the two ends of the tube group 320. Of course, in other embodiments, the order of the two steps of "pulling open the cap opening 319" and "changing the orientations of the cap opening claw 322 and the cap suction disc 314 to the horizontal direction" can also be exchanged.

[0075] In addition, it should be noted that if the end caps 306 in the end cap storage area are arranged laterally (the closed ends and the cap openings 319 of the end caps 306 are arranged along the horizontal direction), the cap driving mechanism can also not be provided with a turning unit, and the orientations of the cap suction disc 314 and the cap opening claw 322 can always be kept horizontal. As long as when the cap driving mechanism drives the cap suction units 303 to move towards the end of the tube group 320, the orientation of the cap suction disc 314 is the same as the orientation of the claw block 313, and the cap suction disc 314 and the claw block 313 are both horizontally oriented towards the end of the tube group 320, the end cap 306 can be covered on the end of the tube group 320. The direction from the end of the claw block 313 connected to the cap opening mechanism to the end of the claw block 313 for hooking the end cap 306 is the orientation of the claw block 313.

[0076] As shown in FIG. 6, under the driving of the cap driving mechanism, the cap suction disc 314 moves to the cap storage area 321 and sucks one end cap 306. Subsequently, the cap opening 319 is pulled open by the cap opening claw 322, and the turning unit drives the cap opening claw 322 and the cap suction disc 314 to rotate together, so that the orientations of the cap opening claw 322 and the cap suction disc 314 are both changed to the horizontal direction (as shown in FIG. 7). Figure 4 In order to facilitate covering the end cap 306, the cap covering table 305 can include two tube group clamping plates 304. At least one tube group clamping plate 304 is movable, and the two tube group clamping plates 304 can clamp a plurality of tube 203 to prevent the tube 203 from being scattered before covering the end cap 306. The cap covering table 305 as a whole can be driven by a linear module. The driven cap covering table 305 can move relative to the machine table 118, so as to move towards or away from the detection frame 202, so that the transfer suction disc 209 transfers the tube 203 to the cap covering table 305.

[0077] In other embodiments not shown in the drawings, the cap opening claw 322 can also be provided as a suction disc, and the suction surfaces of the two cap opening claws are arranged opposite to each other. Moreover, the cap opening claw is in contact with the outer surface of the end cap 306. For example, it is assumed that the end cap 306 is in the state shown in FIG. 6. Figure 6In the illustrated position, the first cover member is positioned above the cover removal suction cup 314, with its suction surface facing downward and adhering to the upper surface of the end cap 306. The second cover member is positioned below the cover removal suction cup 314, with its suction surface facing upward and adhering to the lower surface of the end cap 306. After the cover members have attracted the end cap 306, the cover-opening mechanism drives the two cover members away from each other, thereby opening the opening 319 of the end cap 306.

[0078] When the cover member is configured as a suction cup, the specific structure of the cover mechanism can be referred to the claw opening and closing mechanism described above and will not be described in detail here. However, it should be noted that when the cover member is configured as a suction cup, the cover member does not need to be inserted into the interior of the end cap 306 through the opening 319, and therefore the claw extension and retraction cylinder 312 in the claw opening and closing mechanism described above can also be omitted.

[0079] In the embodiment described above, the cap removal mechanism first sucks or clamps the end cap 306, and then the cap opening member opens the opening 319 of the end cap 306. In other embodiments not shown, the operation of the cap removal unit 303 can also be configured as follows: the cap storage area 321 stores a plurality of stacked end caps 306, and the opening 319 of the end caps 306 in the cap storage area 321 faces downward; the two cap opening members first grab or suck an end cap 306 in the cap storage area 321 (for example, the two claws 313 first hook an end cap), and then the cap removal unit 303 moves upward as a whole, and the cap opening members peel off the top end cap 306 in the stack of end caps 306; then, the cap removal mechanism sucks or clamps the end cap 306 again. The operation of the cap removal unit 303 is not listed here one by one, as long as the cap removal unit 303 can remove an end cap 306 from the cap storage area 321 and open the opening 319 of the end cap 306.

[0080] In this embodiment, the packaging device 101 first places the desiccant pack 404 and the humidity card 409 on the tube assembly 320, and then puts the end cap 306 on the tube assembly 320. In other embodiments, it is also possible to first place the desiccant pack 404 and the humidity card 409 on the tube assembly 320, and then put the end cap 306 on the tube assembly 320.

[0081] Desiccant supply module 106 Figure 8 As shown, the desiccant supply module 106 includes a first storage platform 408 for storing desiccant packs 404. The transfer module can transfer the desiccant packs 404 from the first storage platform 408 to the tube assembly 320 supported by the capping platform 305. The desiccant packs 404 are ultimately placed into a packaging bag along with the tube assembly 320 and the end caps 306. After the packaging bag is sealed, the desiccant packs 404 are used to absorb any moisture that may remain in the packaging bag, thereby ensuring a sufficiently dry environment within the packaging bag and preventing damage to the semiconductor devices due to moisture.

[0082] More specifically, as shown in Figure 8 The desiccant supply module 106 further includes a first main body 401, a cutting mechanism 402, a pulling gripper 407, a first taking drive mechanism 405 and a second taking drive mechanism 406. The first main body 401 is provided with a desiccant outlet 403, a first storage platform 408 is adjacent to the desiccant outlet 403, and the pulling gripper 407 faces the desiccant outlet 403. The cutting mechanism 402 is installed above the desiccant outlet 403, and the cutting mechanism 402 can cut two connected desiccant packs 404, so that the first storage platform 408 stores only one desiccant pack 404 at a time. The first taking drive mechanism 405 is used to drive the pulling gripper 407, the second taking drive mechanism 406 and the first storage platform 408 to move linearly (move left and right), and the second taking drive mechanism 406 is used to drive the first storage platform 408 to rotate relative to the pulling gripper 407 (rotate about a vertical axis). Under the drive of the first taking drive mechanism 405, the pulling gripper 407 first pulls out a desiccant pack 404 from the desiccant outlet 403; then, the second taking drive mechanism 406 rotates the first storage platform 408 to be between the pulling gripper 407 and the desiccant outlet 403; after the pulling gripper 407 releases the desiccant pack 404, the desiccant pack 404 is placed on the first storage platform 408.

[0083] The humidity card supply module 105, as shown in Figure 8 The humidity card supply module 105 includes a second storage platform 410 for storing humidity cards 409, and a transfer module can transfer the humidity cards 409 on the second storage platform 410 to the tube group 320 carried by the cover table 305. The humidity cards 409 will eventually be placed in the packaging bag together with the tube group 320 and the end cover 306. After the packaging bag is sealed, the humidity card 409 is used to indicate the humidity in the packaging bag, so that the user can judge whether the semiconductor device in the packaging bag is damp after opening the packaging bag.

[0084] More specifically, the humidity card supply module 105 further includes a second main body 413, a taking drive mechanism 412 and a pushing mechanism not shown. The second main body 413 is provided with a humidity card outlet 411, the humidity cards 409 and the pushing mechanism are located in the second main body 413, and the pushing mechanism is used to push the humidity cards 409 to the humidity card outlet 411. The top surface of the second storage platform 410 is provided with suction holes (not shown), and the taking drive mechanism 412 can be used to drive the second storage platform 410 to rotate relative to the second main body 413. The second storage platform 410 can be rotated upward and cover the humidity card outlet 411, so as to adsorb a humidity card 409. After the humidity card 409 is adsorbed, the second storage platform 410 is rotated downward to the position shown in Figure 8 .

[0085] It should be noted that the humidity card 409 and the desiccant bag 404 do not need to be covered by the end cap 306 . In the length direction of the tube assembly 320 , the humidity card 409 and the desiccant bag 404 are approximately located in the middle of the tube assembly 320 .

[0086] As mentioned above, the transfer module includes a second robot arm 107. The second robot arm 107 can be mounted on the platform 118, such as Figure 9 As shown, the end of the second robot arm 107 includes a support plate 414 and a material suction cup 415. The material suction cup 415 is fixed to the support plate 414 and is located at one end of the support plate. The material suction cup 415 is used to absorb the desiccant and humidity card 409. The support plate 414 is used to carry the tube group 320.

[0087] After the end cap 306 is completed, the cap removal unit 303 is temporarily kept in the Figure 6 In the illustrated state, the two capping units 303 jointly clamp the tube set 320. Subsequently, the capping drive mechanism lifts the capping units 303 and the tube set 320 together, allowing the tube set 320 to leave the capping platform 305. Next, the capping drive mechanism drives the capping units 303 to place the tube set 320 on the support plate 414 of the second robotic arm 107. The second robotic arm 107 then transfers the tube set 320 to the bag supply module 116.

[0088] like Figure 10 As shown, the bag supply module 116 includes a bag opening platform 504, an upper bag opening suction cup 505, a lower bag opening suction cup 506, and a bag opening drive mechanism 501. The bag opening platform 504 is used to support the packaging bag, which can be an aluminum foil bag. The lower bag opening suction cup 506 is mounted on the bag opening platform 504 and is used to absorb the bottom surface of the packaging bag, while the upper bag opening suction cup 505 is used to absorb the top surface of the packaging bag. The bag opening drive mechanism 501 is used to drive the upper bag opening suction cup 505 to rise and fall relative to the bag opening platform 504. When the upper bag opening suction cup 505 rises, the bag opening is opened. After the bag opening is opened, the support plate 414 of the second robot arm 107 and the tube assembly 320 on the support plate 414 extend into the bag through the bag opening. The second robot arm 107 then places the tube assembly 320, which has been fitted with the end cap 306, into the bag.

[0089] like Figure 10 As shown, the bag supply module 116 can also include a bag-opening driving mechanism 503 and two bag-opening members 502. Driven by the bag-opening driving mechanism 503, the bag-opening members 502 are first inserted into the bag opening from left to right (the bag opening has been opened by the upper bag-opening suction cup 505 and the lower bag-opening suction cup 506), and then the two bag-opening members 502 move away from each other in the front-to-back direction, thereby opening the bag opening of the packaging bag in the front-to-back direction so that the tube group 320 can enter the packaging bag.

[0090] The bag supply module 116 may also include a bag storage station (not shown). The bag storage station may be adjacent to the bag opening station 504 and is used to store and carry multiple packaging bags. The bag opening station 504, on the other hand, is used to carry only one packaging bag at a time. The bag supply module 116 may also include a bag transfer mechanism (not shown). The bag transfer mechanism is mounted on the machine platform 118 and is used to absorb packaging bags from the bag storage station and transfer them to the bag opening station 504.

[0091] After the tube set 320 is placed in the packaging bag, while the support plate 414 is still in the packaging bag and supports the tube set 320, the second robot arm 107 transfers the packaging bag with the material tube 203 to the sealing module 113. The sealing module 113 can be a vacuum sealing machine. Figures 10 and 11 As shown, the sealing module 113 includes a box body 603, a sealing table 602, a door 601, a door opening and closing mechanism 604, a vacuum pump, a first pressure strip 605 and a second pressure strip 606. The sealing table 602 is arranged in the box body 603, and the sealing table 602 is used to carry the packaging bag with the tube group 320 installed. The door 601 is movably connected to the box body 603, and the door opening and closing mechanism 604 is used to open and close the door 601. The door opening and closing mechanism 604 can specifically be a cylinder. When the door 601 is in a closed state, the door 601 seals the box body 603. A vacuum pump (not shown) is connected to the box body 603 and is used to extract the gas in the box body 603. The first pressure strip 605 is installed in the box body 603, and the second pressure strip 606 is installed on the door 601. The first pressure strip 605 and the second pressure strip 606 can both generate heat. For example, a heating wire is provided inside the pressure strip. The first pressing strip 605 and the second pressing strip 606 are used to clamp the bag opening of the packaging bag together.

[0092] After the door 601 is closed, the vacuum pump gradually removes the gas from the box 603, and the air in the packaging bag is also removed. The first bead 605 can move relative to the box 603, or the second bead 606 can move relative to the door 601 (the mechanism for driving the bead movement is not shown); during vacuuming, the first bead 605 and the second bead 606 do not clamp the bag opening to allow the air in the bag to be extracted. Only after the vacuum level in the box 603 reaches a preset value do the first bead 605 and the second bead 606 clamp the bag opening. The heated first bead 605 and the second bead 606 press the bag opening tightly, thereby heat-sealing the bag opening.

[0093] As described above, the transfer module includes the third robotic arm 114. The end of the third robotic arm 114 includes a bag-removing gripper (not shown). After the second robotic arm 107 places the package bag containing the tube assembly 320 on the sealing station 602 and before the door 601 closes, the bag-removing gripper moves to the sealing module 113 and grips the tube assembly 320. More specifically, the bag-removing gripper is located outside the package bag and simultaneously grips the tube assembly 320 and the package bag. After the gripper grips the tube assembly 320 and the package bag, the second robotic arm 107 removes its pallet 414 from the package bag to prevent the pallet 414 from obstructing the heat sealing of the package bag.

[0094] like Figure 12 As shown, the sealing module 113 also includes two bag-pulling jaws 609. The two bag-pulling jaws 609 are located on the same side of the sealing platform 602, spaced apart and facing each other. More specifically, the bag-pulling jaws 609 and the first pressure strip 605 are located on the same side of the sealing platform 602, with the bag-pulling jaws 609 positioned between the sealing platform 602 and the first pressure strip 605 to prevent the bag-pulling jaws 609 from obstructing the first pressure strip 605 and the second pressure strip 606 from gripping the bag opening. For example, the sealing platform 602, the bag-pulling jaws 609, and the first pressure strip 605 are arranged sequentially from right to left. The bag-pulling jaws 609 are configured to contact the outer surface of the packaging bag and do not extend into the packaging bag to prevent them from obstructing the heat sealing of the bag opening. The two bag-pulling jaws 609 are configured to clamp the two sides of the bag opening. The sealing module 113 also includes a leveling drive mechanism 608, which drives two bag-pulling jaws 609 away from each other, thereby pulling the bag opening horizontally. More specifically, the two bag-pulling jaws 609 pull the bag opening in a front-to-back direction. While not fully illustrated, the leveling drive mechanism 608 can be implemented as a screw module, a belt module, a rack-and-pinion linear module, or the like.

[0095] When the tube assembly 320 includes two or more layers of material tubes 203, the packaging bag is relatively thick after the tube assembly 320 is installed. Accordingly, before vacuuming, the maximum vertical dimension of the bag opening is relatively large. If vacuuming and heat sealing are performed directly, the bag opening may develop numerous wrinkles after shrinking under the action of negative pressure, resulting in subsequent poor sealing. Using the bag-pulling jaws 609 to pull the bag opening horizontally before vacuuming helps to flatten the bag opening, reduce wrinkles at the bag opening, improve the heat-sealing quality of the bag opening, and reduce the risk of poor sealing of the packaging bag.

[0096] The sealing module 113 may further include a sealing adjustment mechanism 607, which is disposed in the housing 603 and connected to the sealing platform 602. The sealing adjustment mechanism 607 is used to drive the sealing platform 602 to rise and fall relative to the first pressure strip 605. That is, the height of the sealing platform 602 is adjustable. The sealing adjustment mechanism 607 is located at the bottom of the sealing platform 602. The sealing adjustment mechanism 607 is not fully shown in the accompanying drawings. The sealing adjustment mechanism 607 can be configured as a scissor-type lifting mechanism, a cylinder, or other mechanisms mentioned in the context that can drive an object to perform linear motion. In order to improve the sealing quality of the bag opening, the ideal situation is that after the bag opening is pressed by the first pressure strip 605 and the second pressure strip 606, in the vertical direction, the distance between the bag opening and the top of the packaging bag is equal to the distance between the bag opening and the bottom of the packaging bag. As mentioned above, different types of tube assemblies 320 may have different numbers of layers within the material tube 203. Accordingly, after packaging bags are loaded with different types of tube assemblies 320, the height of the bags stretched by the tube assemblies 320 may vary. Therefore, to adapt the sealing module 113 to bags of varying heights, the sealing platform 602 is height-adjustable, allowing the bags to be adjusted to the desired height for sealing. The provision of a sealing adjustment mechanism 607 facilitates adaptability of the apparatus 101 to packaging a variety of different tube assemblies 320.

[0097] like Figure 12 As shown, the sealing module 113 may further include a nitrogen pipe 610, which is located within the housing 603, with its outlet facing the sealing station 602. The nitrogen pipe 610 is used to fill the packaging bag with nitrogen before vacuuming. The nitrogen can expel the air in the packaging bag to reduce the air in the packaging bag; subsequently, the nitrogen and air in the housing 603 are extracted together by the vacuum pump.

[0098] After the heat sealing is completed, the door 601 is opened, and the third robot arm 114 takes out the vacuumed and sealed packaging bag and transfers the packaging bag to the bag folding table 703 of the bag folding module 112. Figure 13 As shown, the bag folding module 112 includes a bag folding platform 703, a first bag folding member 704 and a first bag folding drive mechanism. There are four first bag folding members 704, and any two first bag folding members 704 are arranged at intervals. The first bag folding member 704 is "L"-shaped, and the first bag folding member 704 includes a first bag folding portion 708 and a second bag folding portion 709 that are perpendicular to each other. The first bag folding portion 708 and the second bag folding portion 709 are both protruding relative to the top surface of the bag folding platform 703, and the first bag folding portion 708 and the second bag folding portion 709 are both arranged vertically. If observed from a top view angle (such as Figure 15As shown in FIG. 1 , the bag folding platform 703 and the four first bag folding members 704 together define a rectangular first accommodation space 707 for accommodating sealed packaging bags. The first bag folding drive mechanism can drive the four first bag folding members 704 to converge toward each other, thereby folding the edges of the packaging bags.

[0099] The bag folding module 112 is used to reduce the volume of the sealed packaging bag so that the packaging bag can be placed in the packaging box later. Figure 14 As shown, the packaging bag includes a first wrapping portion 701 and a second wrapping portion 702, wherein the second wrapping portion 702 surrounds the first wrapping portion 701. The first wrapping portion 701 wraps the tube assembly 320, the end cap 306, the desiccant bag 404, and the humidity card 409. Therefore, the first wrapping portion 701 is relatively thick and is roughly in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped. The second wrapping portion 702 is relatively thin, and its thickness is much smaller than that of the first wrapping portion 701. The second wrapping portion 702 is in the shape of a sheet. Figure 14 The packaging bag shown has its second wrapping portion 702 spread outward, which results in a larger space occupied by the packaging bag, making it difficult to place the packaging bag in a packaging box. On the other hand, when the second wrapping portion 702 is not folded, the packaging bag is larger in volume, and a larger packaging box is required to place the packaging bag, which in turn increases transportation and storage costs. The first bag folding member 704 folding the edge of the packaging bag means that the first bag folding member 704 folds the second wrapping portion 702 to the side of the first wrapping portion 701, so that the second wrapping portion 702 fits the side of the first wrapping portion 701. The first bag folding member 704 folding the edge of the packaging bag can reduce the volume of the packaging bag, making it easier to place the packaging bag in a packaging box later, and eliminating the need to use a larger packaging box to store the packaging bag.

[0100] Figure 15 The movement process of the first bag folding member 704 in one embodiment is shown. In the process of the four first bag folding members 704 folding together, the movement process of the first bag folding member 704 includes the following three main processes in sequence:

[0101] 1. The four first folding bag members 704 are folded together, and the first folding bag members 704 clamp the first wrapping portion 701 in the length direction of the first accommodating space 707 (such as Figure 15 (c)

[0102] 2. The four first bag folding members 704 are opened to each other under the drive of the first bag folding driving mechanism. The first bag folding members 704 loosen the first wrapping portion 701 in the length direction of the first accommodating space 707 (such as Figure 15 (e));

[0103] 3. The four first folding bag members 704 are folded together again. The first folding bag members 704 clamp the first wrapping portion 701 in the length direction of the first accommodating space 707 and clamp the first wrapping portion 701 in the width direction of the first accommodating space 707 (as shown in FIG. Figure 15 (f)).

[0104] exist Figure 15 In the figure, the length direction of the first accommodating space 707 is the left-right direction, and the width direction of the first accommodating space 707 is the front-back direction. For the convenience of description, the left-right direction and the front-back direction are directly used to replace the length direction and the width direction of the first accommodating space 707. The movement mode of the first folding bag part 704 is further described below. Figure 15 As shown, after the third robotic arm 114 places the packaging bag on the bag folding platform 703, the first bag folding unit 704 performs the following movements in sequence:

[0105] (1) The two first folding bag parts 704 on the left side are brought closer to each other along the front-to-back direction. At the same time, the two first folding bag parts 704 on the right side are also brought closer to each other along the front-to-back direction.

[0106] After the movement (1) is finished, the first folding bag part 704 is Figure 15 (a) Move to the position shown in Figure 15 (b) The position shown.

[0107] (2) In the left-right direction, the pair of first folding bag members 704 on the left and the pair of first folding bag members 704 on the right are brought closer to each other.

[0108] After the movement (2) is finished, the first folding bag part 704 is Figure 15 (b) Move to the position shown in Figure 15 In the position shown in (c), the first wrapping portion 701 of the packaging bag is clamped by the first bag folding member 704 in the left-right direction, but the first wrapping portion 701 is not clamped by the first bag folding member 704 in the front-back direction. Figure 15 (not shown) has been folded.

[0109] (3) The two first folding bag parts 704 on the left side are spaced apart from each other in the front-to-back direction, and the two first folding bag parts 704 on the right side are also spaced apart from each other in the front-to-back direction.

[0110] After the movement (3) is finished, the first folding bag 704 is Figure 15 (c) Move to the position shown Figure 15 (d) shows the position where the first wrapping portion 701 is still clamped by the first bag folding member 704 in the left-right direction.

[0111] (4) In the left-right direction, the pair of first folding bag members 704 on the left and the pair of first folding bag members 704 on the right are away from each other.

[0112] After the movement (4) is finished, the first folding bag 704 is Figure 15 (d) Move to the position shown Figure 15 At this time, the first folding member 704 releases the first wrapping portion 701, but the first folding member 704 is relatively close to the first wrapping portion 701, and the first folding member 704 is still in contact with the second wrapping portion 702, and the second wrapping portion 702 remains in the folded state.

[0113] (5) The two first folding bag parts 704 on the left side move closer to each other in the front-to-back direction, and at the same time, the two first folding bag parts 704 on the right side also move closer to each other in the front-to-back direction until the first wrapping portion 701 is clamped by the first folding bag parts 704 in the front-to-back direction.

[0114] (6) In the left-right direction, the pair of first folding bag members 704 on the left and the pair of first folding bag members 704 on the right move closer to each other until the first wrapping portion 701 of the packaging bag is clamped by the first folding bag members 704 in the left-right direction.

[0115] After the movement (6) is finished, the first folding bag 704 is Figure 15 (e) Move to the position shown Figure 15 At this time, the first wrapping portion 701 is tightened by the four first folding bag members 704 , and the second wrapping portion 702 is pressed against the side of the first wrapping portion 701 .

[0116] After the above movement (2), the second wrapping portion 702 located outside the first wrapping portion 701 (the second wrapping portion 702 is not in the Figure 15 (shown in the figure) has actually been folded. The above movements (3) to (6) are equivalent to first folding the second wrapping portion 702 to a certain extent and then pressing the second wrapping portion 702 tightly, which helps to better press the folded second wrapping portion 702 against the side of the first wrapping portion 701. Moreover, the above movements (3) to (6) can avoid pressing the second wrapping portion 702 against the side of the first wrapping portion 701 at one time, thereby avoiding excessive folding of the second wrapping portion 702 at one time, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the bend of the packaging bag.

[0117] In other embodiments, the path or movement sequence of the first bag folding parts 704 may also be designed in other ways, as long as the four first bag folding parts 704 can eventually be gathered toward the packaging bag, the second wrapping portion 702 of the packaging bag can be folded.

[0118] like Figure 13As shown, the bag folding module 112 also includes a second bag folding drive mechanism 706 and two second bag folding members 705. The second bag folding members 705 are vertically arranged and protrude upward relative to the top surface of the bag folding platform 703. The two second bag folding members 705 are spaced apart in the width direction (front-to-back direction) of the accommodating space, and in the length direction (left-to-right direction) of the first accommodating space 707, the second bag folding members 705 are located between the two pairs of first bag folding members 704. The second bag folding members 705 are connected to the second bag folding drive mechanism 706, which is used to drive the two second bag folding members 705 to converge toward each other so that the second bag folding members 705 fold the edges of the packaging bag. If the material tube 203 is relatively long, the second wrapping portion 702 is also relatively long. The second bag folding members 705 can fold the long sides of the packaging bag to reduce the volume of the packaging bag.

[0119] After the packaging bag is processed by the bag folding module 112, the fourth robot arm 111 of the transfer module can pick up the packaging bag on the bag folding table 703 and transfer the packaging bag to the box supply module 108. Figure 16 As shown, the box supply module 108 includes a folding platform 806, a sheet material placement platform 808, folding box components 803, a fixed baffle 802, and a folding box drive mechanism. The sheet material placement platform 808 is used to store unfolded sheets 807, which can be cartons. The folding platform 806 includes a central area 805, and a plurality of folding box components 803 are arranged on the periphery of the central area 805. The fixed baffle 802 is fixedly connected to the folding platform 806, and the fixed baffle 802 protrudes upward relative to the top surface of the folding platform 806. Two fixed baffles 802 are provided, and the fixed baffles 802 are also located on the periphery of the central area 805. The two fixed baffles 802 are spaced apart along the first horizontal direction. The folding box drive mechanism, not specifically shown, may include multiple cylinders, motors, and the like. The folding box drive mechanism is connected to the folding box member 803 and is used to drive the folding box member 803 relative to the folding box platform 806, so that the folding box member 803 pushes various portions of the sheet material 807, folds the sheet material 807 into a packaging box, and seals the packaging box. How the folding box member 803 folds the sheet material 807 into a packaging box and seals the packaging box is well known in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0120] The box supply module 108, equipped with a box folding member 803 and a box folding drive mechanism, can fold the sheet material 807 into a packaging box, thereby improving the automation level of the packaging process of the material tube 203. In other embodiments (not shown), to simplify the structure and reduce the cost of the device 101, the box supply module 108 may not include the box folding member 803 and the box folding drive mechanism. For example, pre-folded packaging boxes (with the top unsealed) can be stored in the box supply module 108, and the transfer module can seal the packaging box after placing the packaging bag.

[0121] It should be noted that the packaging box is rectangular in shape, and two fixed baffles 802 are used to limit the left and right ends of the packaging box. Before the top of the packaging box is completely closed, the fourth robotic arm 111 places the packaging bag into the packaging box. In addition, when the two folding box members 803 located at the front and rear sides of the central area 805 are upright (these two folding box members 803 can rotate upward relative to the folding box platform 806), these two folding box members 803 are used to limit the front and rear ends of the packaging box.

[0122] like Figure 16 As shown, the box supply module 108 also includes a movable baffle 801 and a guide drive mechanism 804. Each fixed baffle 802 is movably connected to two movable baffles 801. The movable baffles 801 are spaced apart and arranged above the box folding platform 806. The guide drive mechanism 804 is connected to the movable baffle 801 and can include multiple cylinders. The guide drive mechanism 804 is used to drive the movable baffle 801 to move relative to the fixed baffle 802, so that the movable baffle 801 switches between a guided state and a retracted state. The guide drive mechanism 804 can be configured as a cylinder.

[0123] like Figure 17 As shown, when the movable baffles 801 are in the guiding state, the two movable baffles 801 connected to the same fixed baffle 802 are arranged facing each other and spaced apart in a second horizontal direction, the second horizontal direction being perpendicular to the first horizontal direction. At least a portion of the movable baffle 801 is located between the two fixed baffles 802 in the first horizontal direction. When viewed from above, the central area 805, the fixed baffles 802, and the movable baffles 801 collectively define a rectangular second accommodating space 809 for accommodating packaging boxes. The movable baffles 801 guide the packaging bags as they enter the packaging box from top to bottom, ensuring smooth entry. When the movable baffles 801 are in the retracted state, the movable baffles 801 are located outside the fixed baffles 802 in the first horizontal direction. At this time, the movable baffles 801 do not block the movement of the folding member 803, thereby preventing the sheet material 807 from being folded into the packaging box.

[0124] like Figure 18As shown, the device 101 also includes a tape supply module 119. The tape supply module 119 includes a tape roll 909, a tape mounting frame 901, a tape cutting mechanism 908, a tape supply platform 904, and a tape transfer mechanism. The tape roll 909 is rotatably mounted on the tape mounting frame 901. The tape cutting mechanism 908 is mounted on the tape mounting frame 901. The tape supply platform 904 is used to store the tape 907 cut from the tape roll 909 by the tape cutting mechanism 908. The tape 907 transfer mechanism is used to drive the tape supply platform 904 to move relative to the tape mounting frame 901 so that the cut tape 907 is transferred to the tape supply platform 904. The transfer module is also used to transfer the tape 907 on the tape supply platform 904 to the packaging box carried by the box folding platform 806 and adhere the tape 907 to the surface of the packaging box. More specifically, the tape transfer mechanism includes a tape clamp 906, a first drive unit 902 for driving the tape clamp 906 left and right, a second drive unit 903 for driving the tape supply platform 904 back and forth, and a third drive unit 905 for driving the tape supply platform 904 back and forth. After the tape 907 is pulled from the tape roll 909 by the tape clamp 906, the tape supply platform 904 moves below the pulled tape 907. The tape cutting mechanism 908 cuts the tape 907, and the tape supply platform 904 then leaves the tape cutting mechanism 908, carrying the cut tape 907. After the packaging box is sealed by the box supply module 108, the transfer module (specifically, the transfer module's fourth robotic arm 111) removes the tape 907 from the tape supply platform 904, transfers the tape to the packaging box at the box supply module 108, and affixes the tape 907 to the outer surface of the packaging box to prevent the packaging box from falling apart.

[0125] The device 101 further comprises a first labeling module 110 and a second labeling module 115. Figure 19 As shown, the first labeling module 110 includes a first label printer 910, a first label pressing block 912 and a first labeling drive mechanism 911. The first label printer 910 is provided with a first label outlet 915. The label output from the first label outlet 915 is used to be attached to the outer surface of the packaging box. The first label pressing block 912 is adjacent to the first label outlet 915. The first label pressing block 912 is provided with a first adsorption hole 913 for adsorbing the label. The first labeling drive mechanism 911 is used to drive the first label pressing block 912 to move. In this embodiment, the first labeling drive mechanism 911 is configured as a cylinder, which can drive the first label pressing block 912 to rotate. When the first adsorption hole 913 is facing downward, the first label pressing block 912 adsorbs the label at the first label outlet 915; when the first adsorption hole 913 is facing away from the first label outlet 915 (as shown in FIG. 1 ), the ... Figure 19As shown), the first label pressing block 912 presses the label on the outer surface of the packaging box, so that the first label is attached to the packaging box. The packaging box is transferred from the box supply module 108 to the vicinity of the label pressing block by the fourth robotic arm 111. The packaging box is sucked by the fourth robotic arm 111 and stays near the label pressing block. The first label pressing block 912 is rotated to a vertical state to attach the label to the packaging box. The first labeling module 110 can also include a blowing member 914. The blowing port of the blowing member 914 is set upward. The blowing member 914 is located between the first label pressing block 912 and the first label outlet 915. The gas blown by the blowing member 914 can lift the sticky side of the label (this surface faces downward) so that the first label pressing block 912 absorbs the non-sticky side of the label (this surface faces upward). The information recorded on the label attached to the packaging box may include the quantity and model of the semiconductor devices in the box, etc. It should be noted that the movement of the label pressing blocks (including the first label pressing block 912 and the second label pressing block) is not limited to rotation. In other embodiments, the label pressing blocks may also move horizontally.

[0126] Similarly, the second labeling module 115 includes a second label printer, a second label pressing block, and a second labeling drive mechanism (none of which are specifically shown). The second label printer is provided with a second label outlet, and the label output from the second label outlet is used to be attached to the outer surface of the packaging bag. The second label pressing block is adjacent to the second label outlet and is provided with a second adsorption hole for adsorbing the label. The second labeling drive mechanism is used to drive the second label pressing block to move. It should be noted that if the packaging bag does not require labeling, then the device 101 does not need to be provided with the second labeling module 115. In some embodiments, labeling of the packaging bag can be performed before the packaging bag is opened by the bag supply module 116; in other embodiments, labeling of the packaging bag can also be performed after the tube assembly 320 is placed in the packaging bag or after the packaging bag is sealed.

[0127] After the packaging box is labeled, the fourth robot arm 111 of the transfer module transfers the packaging box to the unloading platform 109, which stores the packaging box with the material tube 203 installed.
