[0043] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention; obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0044] Embodiment 1:

[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 4 , a high-precision automatic handling system based on embodied intelligence technology, including a handling robot 2 arranged beside a production line 1. There are several objects to be handled on the conveyor belt of the production line 1. The handling robot 2 is composed of a base 201, a column 202, a boom 203, a forearm 204 and a fixture 205, and any two adjacent of the above structures are movably connected. A docking pipe 3 is fixedly installed on the side of the base 201, and a goods transfer vehicle 4 is docked through the docking pipe 3. Casters and motors for controlling the casters are fixedly installed at the bottom ends of the base 201 and the goods transfer vehicle 4, and the motors are all controlled by electrical signals. A searchlight board 5 is fixedly installed on the side of the forearm 204, and several inductive probes 6 are fixedly installed at the bottom end of the searchlight board 5;

[0046] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4, specifically, a docking plug 401 is fixedly arranged on one side of the goods transfer vehicle 4, and the docking plug 401 is inserted into the docking pipe 3.

[0047] This facilitates the completion of the docking between the goods transfer vehicle 4 and the docking pipe 3.

[0048] Refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 , specifically, a through slot hole 301 is opened at the top of the docking pipe 3, a clamping slot hole 4011 is opened on the docking plug 401, and the aperture sizes of the through slot hole 301 and the clamping slot hole 4011 are equal;

[0049] An installation seat 2011 is fixedly installed on the base 201, a small hydraulic cylinder 2012 is fixedly installed on the installation seat 2011, the output shaft of the small hydraulic cylinder 2012 passes through the through slot hole 301 and is clamped into the clamping slot hole 4011.

[0050] When the output shaft of the small hydraulic cylinder 2012 extends, the output shaft passes through the through slot hole 301 and is clamped into the clamping slot hole 4011, which can lock the goods transfer vehicle 4 and the docking pipe 3 after docking;

[0051] When the output shaft of the small hydraulic cylinder 2012 fully retracts, the output shaft returns to the through slot hole 301 and disengages from the inside of the clamping slot hole 4011, which can release the lock between the goods transfer vehicle 4 and the docking pipe 3. At this time, the handling robot 2 and the goods transfer vehicle 4 can be separated, which is convenient for the independent use of either of them.

[0052] Refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 , specifically, the number of induction probes 6 is twelve, and each induction probe 6 is arranged to be inclined outward by 30°.

[0053] This can effectively ensure the detection range of the induction probe 6, and thus ensure the detection effect of the induction probe 6.

[0054] Working principle:

[0055] When the goods to be handled move on the production line 1, the induction probe 6 on the handling robot 2 detects the approach of the goods to be handled, and the base 201, the column 202, the boom 203, the forearm 204 and the fixture 205 cooperate. The fixture 205 can clamp the goods to be handled, move them onto the goods transfer vehicle 4, and release them. Then the handling robot 2 returns to the initial position to complete the handling operation.

[0056] Embodiment 2:

[0057] Based on the above Embodiment 1, a further description is made.

[0058] Refer toFigure 1 , Figure 5 , specifically, an automatic handling system formed by the handling robot 2, which includes a training and learning module, a path planning module, a language collaboration module, a data fusion module, and an adaptive training and learning module. All the above modules are centrally processed by the internal CPU of the handling robot 2, and multiple sensors are provided on the handling robot 2, and a visual automatic handling system, a tactile automatic handling system, a force perception automatic handling system, and a temperature perception automatic handling system of the handling robot 2 are formed through the multiple sensors.

[0059] Specifically, in the training and learning module, a large-scale pre-trained convolutional neural network CNN and a Transformer model are adopted, which are used for accurate recognition and pose estimation of objects such as wafers and chips in the robot visual automatic handling system.

[0060] In the training and learning module, through the powerful generalization ability of the large model, the robot can identify semiconductor products of different sizes, shapes, and materials, and perform stable recognition and positioning under different lighting and environmental conditions.

[0061] The training and learning module can perform large-scale pre-training to form a training model, and then use it for object recognition and pose estimation.

[0062] The combination of the large-scale pre-trained model and computer vision technology enables the present invention to provide high-precision object recognition and pose estimation in complex environments by using a large-scale deep learning model.

[0063] Specifically, in the path planning module, a deep reinforcement learning DRL algorithm is introduced, enabling the robot to learn the best path through interaction with the environment, and respond in real time to changes in the production line 1 such as obstacles and production progress, improving the handling efficiency and flexibility.

[0064] The path planning module forms a deep reinforcement learning algorithm for completing intelligent path planning.

[0065] The advantage of the DRL algorithm is that it can optimize decisions based on feedback and even self-learn and improve from experience.

[0066] When applying deep reinforcement learning in path planning, the automatic handling system introduces deep reinforcement learning technology, enabling the robot to autonomously learn and optimize the path planning strategy, and flexibly handle complex situations in a dynamic production environment.

[0067] Specifically, in the language collaboration module, combined with natural language processing NLP, the handling robot 2 conducts intelligent dialogue and collaboration with other automated devices or operators on the production line 1.

[0068] The handling robot 2 interacts with other devices through natural language instructions, obtains information about the production line 1 or performs task scheduling, improving the overall coordination efficiency of the automatic handling system.

[0069] In the language collaboration module, a large-scale language model is formed, which can effectively collaborate with the handling robot 2.

[0070] When natural language processing collaborates with the robot, combined with the natural language processing model, the robot can understand and interact intelligently with other devices and operators on the production line 1, improving the coordination efficiency.

[0071] Specifically, in the data fusion module, the handling robot 2 utilizes various perception data such as vision, touch, force sense, and temperature, and performs multi-modal data fusion through a large model to optimize the decision-making process.

[0072] The data fusion module can complete multi-modal data fusion.

[0073] For example, the handling robot 2 can make more accurate handling decisions based on the combination of visual recognition data and force sense sensor data. Through the training of the large model, the automatic handling system can dynamically adjust the grasping force for different objects, avoiding problems of over-force or under-force.

[0074] Specifically, in the adaptive training and learning module, a deep learning model is formed within the automatic handling system, which learns and updates in real time during the production process. By continuously collecting feedback data, the handling strategy and recognition ability are continuously optimized.

[0075] The adaptive training and learning module can complete adaptive learning and realize the update of the automatic handling system.

[0076] For example, through the edge computing platform, the robot can perform real-time training and fine-tuning at the production site without the need to transmit data back to the central server, which can greatly improve the adaptability and response speed of the automatic handling system.

[0077] When the handling robot 2 performs real-time adaptive learning and optimization through the automatic handling system, the automatic handling system can perform online learning based on the feedback data in the actual production process and continuously optimize the performance of the automatic handling system.

[0078] In summary, the high-precision automatic handling system of the present invention combining large model technology breaks through the limitations of traditional automated handling systems and has broad application prospects in the semiconductor production line 1. The introduction of the large model enables the automatic handling system to demonstrate stronger intelligent capabilities in aspects such as visual recognition, path planning, and object grasping, not only improving production efficiency but also greatly enhancing the adaptability and sustainability of the automatic handling system.

[0079] Embodiment 3:

[0080] Based on the above-mentioned Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, a further description is made.

[0081] When the handling robot 2 works in cooperation with the automatic handling system:

[0082] Specifically, in a semiconductor wafer automated production line 1, the automatic handling system is equipped with a computer vision model pre-trained by deep learning for precise positioning and pose estimation of wafers. The robot can autonomously plan the handling path in a dynamic environment through a deep reinforcement learning algorithm and adjust the grasping pose according to visual feedback. The automatic handling can also coordinate tasks with other robots on the production line 1 through natural language to improve the collaborative operation efficiency.

[0083] Specifically, when the handling robot 2 works in cooperation with the automatic handling system, for example, in another electronic component assembly line, the robot utilizes the visual perception ability of the large model to achieve automatic classification and handling of components with different shapes and materials. Through the fusion of multi-modal sensors (vision, force sense, touch, etc.), the robot can adjust the operation strategy in real time to avoid damaging sensitive electronic components. In addition, the automatic handling system continuously optimizes the grasping strategy of the robot according to the actual feedback of the production line 1 to gradually improve the production efficiency.

[0084] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention; however, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and its improved concept of the present invention, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
