Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of LED lamp bead manufacturing, and particularly relates to a surface-mounted LED lamp bead detection device and a surface-mounted LED lamp bead detection method. Background Art

[0003] Due to advantages such as small size, low power consumption, and high luminous efficiency, surface-mounted LED lamp beads are widely used in fields such as consumer electronics, automotive lighting, and display panels. However, during the production process of surface-mounted LED lamp beads, performance instability or failure is likely to occur due to packaging process defects (such as loose soldering points, colloid cracks, electrode oxidation, etc.). Therefore, strict detection of their appearance and reliability is required. Traditional detection methods mainly rely on manual visual inspection or semi-automatic equipment, which have problems such as low efficiency, high missed detection rate, and difficulty in multi-angle detection. Especially under high-temperature working conditions (such as in vehicle-mounted or industrial environments), the performance of LED lamp beads may change, and existing detection devices usually lack the ability to simulate the environment, making it difficult to comprehensively evaluate product reliability.

[0029] In summary, it is fixed by vacuum adsorption, and the rotating base 300 is used to detect the appearance defects of the entire LED lamp bead, without the need for multiple assemblies in multiple directions, improving efficiency.

[0030] In the above embodiment, in order to achieve the rotational connection between the bearing tray 310 and the rotating base 300, the rotating base 300 is provided with a rotating groove 320, the bearing tray 310 is built in the rotating groove 320, both ends of the bearing tray 310 are rotationally connected to both sides of the rotating groove 320 respectively, and the rotating base 300 is equipped with a driving motor 330 for driving the bearing tray 310 to rotate.

[0031] In some embodiments, a heating plate is provided between the ceramic suction cup 400 and the bearing tray 310, and the heating plate is fixed on the bearing tray 310. After the heating plate is powered on, it heats up, and the heat is conducted to the LED lamp bead through the ceramic suction cup 400 to simulate a high-temperature working environment (such as 85°C). It is possible to achieve the detection of working conditions at normal temperature and high temperature. Preferably, in order to prevent the bearing tray 310 from being damaged due to long-term heating, a heat insulation plate is provided between the bearing tray 310 and the heating plate. The bearing tray 310 is internally provided with a cooling water pipe 340. Both ends of the cooling water pipe 340 are respectively provided with a water inlet joint 341 and a water outlet joint 342, and the water inlet joint 341 and the water outlet joint 342 are arranged on the side surface of the bearing tray 310. Specifically, circulating cold water is introduced into the cooling water pipe 340 to absorb the heat of the bearing tray 310 and prevent high temperature from affecting the service life of the bearing of the rotating base 300 and the bearing tray 310. In addition, the cooling system can keep the temperature of the bearing tray 310 stable within ±2°C to avoid positioning deviation caused by thermal expansion.

[0032] Preferably, the cooling water pipe 340 is built in the tray 310 in a meandering shape. The meandering cooling water pipe 340 can better expand the cooling area and improve the cooling effect.

[0033] It should be noted that the surface of the ceramic suction cup 400 is provided with a fixed block 430 and a sliding block 440. The fixed block 430 is fixed on the surface of the ceramic suction cup 400. The sliding block 440 is connected to a driving cylinder 441. The driving cylinder 441 is used to drive the sliding block 440 to approach or move away from the fixed block 430. One end of the first air duct 410 is located between the fixed block 430 and the sliding block 440. The cooperation between the fixed block 430 and the sliding block 440 can initially restrict the position of the LED lamp beads. After the sliding block 440 cooperates with the fixed block 430 to clamp the LED lamp beads, the first negative pressure generator is then turned on to effectively adsorb and fix the LED lamp beads. In order to avoid damaging the LED lamp beads, a sponge pad 450 is provided on the opposite sides of the sliding block 440 and the fixed block 430.

[0034] In some embodiments, the first air duct 410 includes a first main air duct 411 and a plurality of first branch air ducts 412.

One end of each second branch air duct 422 communicates with the second main air duct 421, and the other end penetrates to the lower surface of the ceramic suction cup 400. A plurality of ends for forming negative pressure are provided at both the first branch air ducts 412 and the second branch air ducts 422, which can improve the adsorption force on the LED lamp beads and the adsorption force on the tray 310, ensuring that the ceramic suction cup 400 will not fall while ensuring the placement stability of the LED lamp beads.

[0035] In some embodiments, third guide rails 120 are provided on both sides of the machine platform 100, and both sides of the gantry 200 are respectively slidably connected to the third guide rails 120 on both sides.

[0036] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments.
