The connecting cylinders 110 touch the upper and lower surfaces of the inner part of the conveyor belts 103, thereby exerting a supporting force on the conveyor belts 103 to prevent the electronic components from collapsing during transportation. The connecting cylinders 110 are fixedly installed at one end of the assembly plate 4, and the assembly plate 4 is fixedly installed between the carrier frames 1.
[0038] Among them, two groups of positioning detection mechanisms 2 are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the carrier 1, and the two groups of positioning detection mechanisms 2 slide out from between the two groups of assembly plates 4, and the positioning end and the detection end of the positioning detection mechanism 2 are both suspended on the upper surface of the conveyor belt 103 and flush with the multiple groups of placement slots 104. The signal transmitting end of the detection end in the positioning detection mechanism 2 is connected to the signal receiving end of the computer 102 via USB, and the positioning end and the detection end of the two groups of positioning detection mechanisms 2 can be inserted into the placement slot 104 by pulling back, and the insertion of the two groups of positioning ends can achieve the synchronous pushing of the electronic components placed in the placement slot 104 toward the center by sliding toward the center synchronously, so that the insertion of the detection end can accurately contact the contacts of the electronic components, so that the detection end can preliminarily detect the conductivity, insulation, etc. of the electronic components;
[0039] Among them, the two groups of connecting tubes 110 are fixedly installed with a rejection mechanism 3, the blowing end of the rejection mechanism 3 passes through the upper surface of the connecting tube 110 and is connected to the air hole, and the air hole is opened in the placement groove 104, so that the rejection mechanism 3 can blow out and reject the unqualified electronic components detected by the positioning detection mechanism 2 from the placement groove 104. The upper surface of the two groups of connecting tubes 110 is fixedly installed with a pressure plate 105, and the pressure plate covers the upper surface of the conveyor belt 103, so as to limit the electronic components placed in the placement groove 104 to avoid warping when pushed by the positioning end of the positioning detection mechanism 2.
[0040] Through the design of the conveyor belt 103, the placement slot 104, the pressure plate 105, the positioning detection mechanism 2 and the rejection mechanism 3, when in use, the produced electronic components can be guided into the placement slot 104 of the conveyor belt 103, and as the conveyor belt 103 is transported, the electronic components in the placement slot 104 can be transported to the lower end of the pressure plate 105, so that the pressure plate 105 can limit the electronic components in the placement slot 104, until the conveyor belt 103 is transported to a specific stroke, the reduction motor 106 can be controlled by the computer 102 to stop, and the positioning detection mechanism 2 is started at the same time to return Pull, so that the positioning end and the detection end of the positioning detection mechanism 2 can be inserted into the placement groove 104 by pulling back, and the insertion of the two sets of positioning ends can realize the synchronous pushing of the electronic components placed in the placement groove 104 toward the center by sliding toward the center, and the restriction of the pressure plate 105 can prevent the electronic components that are close to each other from tilting, and then the insertion of the detection end can make precise contact with the contacts of the electronic components, and because the electronic components are close to each other, the stroke of the detection end moving each time can be the same, and then the probe can be driven to accurately contact the contacts of the electronic components, so that the detection end By applying a certain voltage or current signal, the response of the electronic components is measured to determine whether there are basic electrical performance problems such as short circuit and open circuit. If there is a problem with the detected electronic components, the positioning detection mechanism 2 can first determine which group of placement slots 104 the components are in, and then determine the position of the unqualified electronic components based on the number of times the detection end moves from left to right or from right to left. After the inspection of this batch of electronic components is completed, the computer 102 can start the reduction motor 106 again to continue conveying the conveyor belt 103, and as the conveyor belt 103 transports the inspected electronic components, the electronic components are transported to the conveyor belt 103. When leaving the conveyor belt 103, they will be detected and counted by the rejection mechanism 3, and the counted electronic components will be conveyed out from the lower end of the pressure plate 105. After the unqualified electronic components are output, the rejection mechanism 3 can blow air into the air holes opened in the corresponding placement slots 104 to blow the unqualified electronic components out of the placement slots 104 and remove them. Through the coordinated work of the positioning detection mechanism 2 and the rejection mechanism 3, a series of automated processes from the transportation, positioning, detection to the rejection of unqualified products of electronic components are realized, which reduces manual intervention and improves production efficiency and test accuracy.
[0041] like Figure 3-Figure 5As shown, the rejection mechanism 3 includes two groups of high-pressure air pumps 301, and the two groups of high-pressure air pumps 301 are respectively fixedly installed in the two groups of connecting cylinders 110. One end of the air outlet of the high-pressure air pump 301 is connected to a TY four-way pipe 302. The other three groups of pipes of the TY four-way pipe 302 pass through the upper surface of the connecting cylinder 110 and can be opposite to and connected to the air holes of the three groups of placement slots 104. The middle sections of the three groups of pipes of the TY four-way pipe 302 are all connected and installed with electromagnetic valves 303. The high-pressure air pump 301 and the electromagnetic valve 303 are all controlled by the computer 102. The upper surfaces of the two groups of pressure plates 105 are fixedly installed with trapezoidal blocks 305. The upper surfaces of the two groups of trapezoidal blocks 305 are divided into Three groups of photoelectric sensors 304 are fixedly installed. The detection ends of the three groups of photoelectric sensors 304 all penetrate the lower surface of the pressure plate 105 and are flush with the placement slot 104, so that the photoelectric sensors 304 can detect the electronic components that have been transported and count them. After the unqualified electronic components have been transported, the photoelectric sensors 304 can be connected to the computer 102 through the USB interface through the ADC module of the signal transmitting end, and the computer 102 can control the high-pressure air pump 301 in real time and open the corresponding solenoid valve 303 to blow high-pressure gas into the corresponding placement slot 104. The model of the photoelectric sensor 304 is E3Z-L61.
[0042] Among them, a guide tube 306 is fixedly installed at one end of the pressure plate 105, the inlet of the guide tube 306 is flush with the air outlet of the other three groups of pipes of the TY four-way tube 302, and also covers the upper surface of the conveyor belt 103. The other end of the guide tube 306 is connected to and installed with a storage box 307, and the storage box 307 is placed at one end of the carrier frame 1.
[0043] Through the design of the high-pressure air pump 301, the TY four-way pipe 302, the solenoid valve 303, the photoelectric sensor 304, the guide tube 306 and the storage box 307, the positioning detection mechanism 2 can first determine which group of placement slots 104 the electronic component is in, and then determine the position of the unqualified electronic component based on the number of times the detection end moves from left to right or from right to left. Then, the computer 102 can start the reduction motor 106 to continue to convey the conveyor belt 103. As the conveyor belt 103 conveys the inspected electronic components out of the conveyor belt 103, they are all conveyed out from the lower end of the pressure plate 105, and at the lower end of the pressure plate 105 A photoelectric sensor 304 is provided, so that all the electronic components being transported will be transported from the lower end of the photoelectric sensor 304 to be detected. Each time a group of electronic components is detected, the photoelectric sensor 304 converts the optical signal into an electrical signal, and after analog-to-digital conversion by the ADC module, the data is transmitted to the computer 102 through the USB interface, so that the computer 102 counts the electronic components passing through. When unqualified electronic components are transported through the photoelectric sensor 304, the photoelectric sensor 304 also transmits a signal to the computer 102, and the computer 102 determines the number of unqualified electronic components based on the counting information. The electronic components currently passing through are unqualified. At this time, the computer 102 immediately issues a control instruction, and controls the high-pressure air pump 301 to start and the electromagnetic valve 303 on the pipeline connected to the air hole of the corresponding placement slot 104 to open. The high-pressure gas generated by the high-pressure air pump 301 is diverted through the TY four-way pipe 302 and enters the air hole of the corresponding placement slot 104 through the opened electromagnetic valve 303, so that the high-pressure gas is ejected from the air hole, forming a strong airflow impact force, blowing out the unqualified electronic components in the placement slot 104. The blown-out unqualified electronic components will enter the guide pipe 306 under the push of the high-pressure gas, and The guide tube 306 guides the unqualified electronic components, causing them to slide along a specific path into the storage box 307 for collection and storage. In this way, the automatic removal and collection of unqualified electronic components is achieved, preventing unqualified products from mixing with qualified products, ensuring product quality and the continuity of the production process. At the same time, the system continues to inspect subsequent electronic components and remove unqualified products until the inspection of the entire batch of electronic components is completed. The process does not require manpower investment, reduces the risk of manual operation errors, and significantly improves production efficiency and test continuity. It is especially suitable for large-scale batch inspection scenarios.
[0044] like Figure 6-Figure 7As shown, the positioning detection mechanism 2 includes two groups of linear modules 201, which are relatively arranged and fixedly mounted on the two ends of the upper surface of the carrier 1. The upper surfaces of the movable blocks of the two groups of linear modules 201 are fixedly mounted with connecting plates 202, and the two ends of the connecting plates 202 are respectively fixedly mounted with a first electric push rod 203 and a second electric push rod 204. The piston rods of the first electric push rod 203 and the second electric push rod 204 slide out from between the two groups of connecting cylinders 110, and a rake plate 206 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the first electric push rod 203. The rake plate 206 is suspended on the upper end of the conveyor belt 103 and is flush with the placement groove 104.
[0045] Among them, the first electric push rod 203, the second electric push rod 204 and the linear module 201 are also controlled by the computer 102, and the two sets of rake plates 206 can be driven to be inserted into the placement groove 104 by the pullback of the first electric push rod 203, and can again be driven by the two sets of linear modules 201 through the moving blocks to drive the two sets of rake plates 206 to slide synchronously toward the center in the placement groove 104, thereby being able to achieve the electronic components placed in the placement groove 104 being pushed synchronously toward the center. The upper surface of the piston rod of the second electric push rod 204 is fixedly installed with a mounting plate 208, and the upper surface of the mounting plate 208 is fixed A frame 209 is fixedly installed, and an electronic load tester 210 is fixedly installed in the frame 209. The detection probe 207 of the electronic load tester 210 penetrates the lower surface of the mounting plate 208 and is flush with the placement groove 104, so that the detection probe 207 can be connected to the contact of the electronic component by being pulled back by the second electric push rod 204. A CCD camera 205 is fixedly installed at one end of the mounting plate 208. The CCD camera 205 is connected to the USB port of the computer 102 via a USB cable, and enables the computer 102 to recognize and install the corresponding image acquisition driver.
[0046] The CCD camera 205 can perform operations such as image filtering, edge detection, feature extraction, and target recognition through the image acquisition program. According to preset algorithms and rules, it calculates the position and posture information of the detection probe 207 relative to the target object, and feeds the results back to the computer 102 to achieve the purpose of accurate visual positioning of the detection probe 207.
[0047] Through the design of the linear module 201, the first electric push rod 203, the second electric push rod 204, the CCD camera 205, the rake plate 206, the detection probe 207 and the electronic load tester 210, the produced electronic components are guided into the placement slot 104 of the conveyor belt 103. As the conveyor belt 103 runs, the electronic components are conveyed to the lower end of the pressure plate 105, and the pressure plate 105 imposes a limit on the electronic components in the placement slot 104 to prevent them from shifting or tilting in subsequent operations. After being conveyed to a specific position, the computer 102 controls the reduction motor 106 to stop, so that the electronic components stay at the detection station. Then the computer 102 can issue a command to control the two sets of linear modules 201 to start, so that the two sets of linear modules 201 can be The moving block drives the connecting plate 202 to move outward synchronously. At the same time, the first electric push rod 203 on the connecting plate 202 is started, and the piston rod is pulled back, driving the rake plate 206 to be inserted downward into the placement groove 104. Subsequently, the two sets of linear modules 201 drive the two sets of rake plates 206 to slide synchronously toward the center in the placement groove 104 through the moving block, so as to achieve the electronic components in the placement groove 104 being pushed toward the center synchronously, completing accurate positioning and ensuring that the electronic components are in the appropriate detection position. While the rake plate 206 completes positioning, the CCD camera 205 at one end of the mounting plate 208 starts working. The CCD camera 205 is connected to the computer 102 via a USB cable. After the computer 102 automatically recognizes and installs the image acquisition driver, The CCD camera 205 collects images of the electronic components in the placement slot 104, and the computer 102 runs the image acquisition program to perform image filtering, edge detection, feature extraction, target recognition and other operations on the collected images. According to the preset algorithm and rules, the position and posture information of the detection probe 207 relative to the contact of the electronic component is calculated, and the result is fed back to the computer 102, so that the computer 102 controls the second electric push rod 204 to start according to the position and posture information fed back by the CCD camera 205, so that the piston rod of the second electric push rod 204 is pulled back, and the mounting plate 208 and the frame 209 fixed thereon, the electronic load tester 210 and the detection probe 207 are moved downward, so that the detection probe 207 and the contact of the electronic component are accurately After the detection probe 207 is connected to the electronic component contact, the electronic load tester 210 starts working. The electronic load tester 210 applies a specific voltage or current signal to the electronic component and measures the response of the electronic component, such as voltage drop, current value and other parameters. By analyzing these parameters, it is determined whether the electronic component has basic electrical performance problems such as short circuit, open circuit, substandard performance, etc., and the detection data and results are fed back to the computer 102. At this time, the CCD camera 205 will also check the surface of the electronic component for breakage and scratches. After receiving the data fed back by the electronic load tester 210, the computer 102 will judge the electronic component according to the preset qualification standard to determine whether it is qualified. At the same time,Computer 102 records the inspection results and location information of each electronic component for subsequent processing.

Then, computer 102 restarts the reduction motor 106, and the conveyor belt 103 continues to operate, transporting the inspected electronic components out and simultaneously transporting the next batch of electronic components to be inspected to the inspection station. The above inspection process is repeated, and the automated process connects each link in an orderly manner, allowing it to complete a single inspection process in a short time. Combined with the continuous operation of the conveyor belt 103, rapid batch inspection of electronic components can be achieved, improving production efficiency.

[0102] Solution Advantages
[0103] High-precision positioning: Combining vision and mechanical calibration, the probe contact error is ≤0.05mm.
[0104] Real-time: Single detection cycle ≤ 2s (including image processing, testing, and rejection decision-making).
[0105] Flexibility: Configure test parameters through the computer 102 interface to adapt to different types of components.
[0106] Reliability: Redundant design (such as dual photoelectric sensor verification) ensures rejection accuracy ≥ 99.9%.
[0107] This solution achieves fully automated, high-reliability testing and sorting of electronic components through multi-algorithm collaboration and rule-based decision-making, significantly improving production line efficiency and product yield.
[0108] The preset algorithm also includes the dynamic probe contact error compensation equation (DEC), which is expressed as:
[0109] ;
[0110] in:
[0111] Δ n is the probe position compensation amount during the nth detection;
[0112] e n−1 is the error between the actual contact position and the target position detected in the n−1th time;
[0113] α is the recent error weight coefficient, β is the historical error attenuation coefficient;
[0114] γ is the time attenuation factor, λ is the nonlinear disturbance term coefficient;
[0115] The computer 102 calculates the compensation amount in real time according to the equation, and corrects the motion path of the detection probe 207 through the linear module 201 to achieve error convergence;
[0116] The time decay factor γ ranges from 0.8 to 0.95, and is used to perform exponential weight decay on the historical error. The nonlinear perturbation term coefficient λ is obtained by the sign function sgn(e n−1 ) Eliminate mechanical vibration interference within ±0.03mm;
[0117] The equation described achieves error compensation through the following process:
[0118] 1. The CCD camera 205 collects the contact image between the detection probe 207 and the electronic component and calculates the position error e n ;
[0119] 2. Computer 102 will e nSubstitute into the DEC equation to generate the compensation amount Δ n+1 ;
[0120] 3. Linear module 201 according to Δ n+1 Adjusting the moving coordinates of the detection probe 207;
[0121] 4. Repeat the iteration until the error converges to within 0.02mm.
[0122] Example scenario: The detection probe needs to compensate for the positioning errors of the previous three times during the fourth detection.
[0123] Known parameters:
[0124] α=0.7, β=0.2, γ=0.9, λ=0.03;
[0125] Historical error sequence: e1=0.15mm, e2=0.10mm, e3=0.08mm;
[0126] Calculate Δ4=0.1443mm;
[0127] Result: During the fourth test, the probe position needed to be compensated by 0.1443 mm to offset the accumulated error.
[0128] This equation is obtained by γ n−k−1 Exponential decay of historical error weights avoids long-term error accumulation, making the total error converge exponentially as the number of detections increases. Compared with traditional PID control, the error of the DEC equation is reduced to less than 0.02mm after 10 iterations (the traditional method is 0.05mm). n−1 ) item eliminates tiny jitter caused by mechanical vibration or ambient temperature (disturbance within ±0.03mm is completely suppressed); when α needs to be dynamically adjusted due to probe wear, the α and β parameters can be updated through online learning algorithms (such as RL) to adapt to hardware degradation.
[0129] Application scenario verification
[0130] Case: A chip resistor test production line had an original positioning error of ±0.1mm. After applying the DEC equation:
[0131] Test results:
[0132] Error sequence for the 1st to 5th times: 0.10mm→0.07mm→0.04mm→0.02mm→0.01mm; the yield rate increased from 98.2% to 99.6% (misjudgments due to poor contact were reduced).
[0133] Data comparison table:
[0134] This equation solves the problem of accumulated probe positioning errors in electronic component testing through dynamic weight distribution and nonlinear disturbance suppression, significantly improving detection accuracy and system stability. It also has strong engineering interpretability and can be extended to precision mechanical positioning scenarios.
[0135] According to the above technical solution, the working steps of this solution are summarized and sorted out: when in use, the produced electronic components can be guided into the placement groove 104 of the conveyor belt 103, and the reduction motor 106 is started to drive the transmission belt 108 on the outer surface of the second transmission disk 109 to drive the first transmission disk 107 to rotate, so that the first transmission disk 107 can drive the two sets of conveyor belts 103 on the outer surface of the transmission column 101 to transmit, and as the conveyor belt 103 is transported, the electronic components in the placement groove 104 can be transported to the lower end of the pressure plate 105, so that the pressure plate 105 can limit the electronic components in the placement groove 104, until the conveyor belt 103 is transported to a specific stroke and the reduction can be controlled by the computer 102. The high-speed motor 106 stops, and at the same time, the computer 102 issues a command to control the two sets of linear modules 201 to start, so that the moving blocks of the two sets of linear modules 201 drive the connecting plate 202 to move outward synchronously. At the same time, the first electric push rod 203 on the connecting plate 202 is started, and the piston rod is pulled back, driving the rake plate 206 to be inserted downward into the placement slot 104. Subsequently, the two sets of linear modules 201 drive the two sets of rake plates 206 to slide synchronously toward the center in the placement slot 104 through the moving blocks, so as to achieve the synchronous pushing of the electronic components in the placement slot 104 toward the center, completing precise positioning and ensuring that the electronic components are in the appropriate detection position. At the same time as the rake plate 206 completes its positioning, the CCD camera 205 at one end of the mounting plate 208 starts The CCD camera 205 is connected to the computer 102 via a USB cable. After the computer 102 automatically recognizes and installs the image acquisition driver, the CCD camera 205 collects images of the electronic components in the placement slot 104. The computer 102 runs the image acquisition program and performs image filtering, edge detection, feature extraction, target recognition and other operations on the collected images. According to the preset algorithm and rules, the position and posture information of the detection probe 207 relative to the contact of the electronic component is calculated and the result is fed back to the computer 102. The computer 102 controls the second electric push rod 204 to start according to the position and posture information fed back by the CCD camera 205, so that the piston rod of the second electric push rod 204 is pulled back, driving the mounting plate 208 The frame 209, the electronic load tester 210 and the detection probe 207 fixed thereon are moved downward, so that the detection probe 207 is accurately connected to the contacts of the electronic component. After the detection probe 207 is connected to the contacts of the electronic component, the electronic load tester 210 starts to work. The electronic load tester 210 applies a specific voltage or current signal to the electronic component and measures the response of the electronic component, such as voltage drop, current value and other parameters. By analyzing these parameters, it is determined whether the electronic component has basic electrical performance problems such as short circuit, open circuit, and substandard performance, and the detection data and results are fed back to the computer 102. At this time, the CCD camera 205 will also inspect the surface of the electronic component for breakage and scratches.After receiving the data fed back by the electronic load tester 210, the computer 102 will judge the electronic components according to the preset qualification standards to determine whether they are qualified. At the same time, the computer 102 records the test results and position information of each electronic component for subsequent processing. After completing the test, the computer 102 controls the first electric push rod 203, the second electric push rod 204 and the linear module 201 to reset, so that the rake plate 206 and the detection probe 207 return to the initial position. Subsequently, the computer 102 starts the reduction motor 106 again, and the conveyor belt 103 continues to operate, and the tested electronic components are put into the test position. The electronic components are transported out, and the next batch of electronic components to be tested are transported to the testing station, and the above testing process is repeated. As the conveyor belt 103 transports the tested electronic components out of the conveyor belt 103, they are all transported out from the lower end of the pressure plate 105. A photoelectric sensor 304 is provided at the lower end of the pressure plate 105, so that the electronic components transported out are transported from the lower end of the photoelectric sensor 304 to be tested. Each time a group of electronic components is detected, the photoelectric sensor 304 converts the optical signal into an electrical signal, and performs analog-to-digital conversion through the ADC module. After that, the data is transmitted to the computer 102 through the USB interface, so that the computer 102 counts the electronic components that pass through. When an unqualified electronic component is conveyed through the photoelectric sensor 304, the photoelectric sensor 304 also transmits a signal to the computer 102. The computer 102 determines that the electronic component currently passing through is unqualified based on the counting information. At this time, the computer 102 immediately issues a control instruction, and at the same time controls the high-pressure air pump 301 to start and the electromagnetic valve 303 on the pipeline connected to the air hole of the corresponding placement slot 104 to open, and the high pressure generated by the high-pressure air pump 301 The gas is diverted through the TY cross-tube 302 and enters the corresponding air holes in the placement slot 104 through the opened solenoid valve 303. The high-pressure gas is ejected from the air holes, creating a powerful airflow impact, blowing out the unqualified electronic components in the placement slot 104. Under the pressure of the high-pressure gas, the blown-out unqualified electronic components will enter the guide tube 306. The guide tube 306 guides the unqualified electronic components, causing them to slide along a specific path to the storage box 307 for collection and storage. In this way, the automatic rejection and collection of unqualified electronic components is achieved.
[0136] In summary: This high-precision multi-channel electronic component testing system implements a series of automated processes from the transportation, positioning, detection to the removal of defective electronic components, reducing manual intervention, significantly improving production efficiency and test continuity, and is particularly suitable for large-scale batch testing scenarios.
