Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of machining technology, specifically to a panel position correction device and machining equipment. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, the panel body needs to be precisely positioned using a straightening device during processing to ensure the accuracy of subsequent processes. However, existing straightening devices have limited adjustment capabilities of the reference mechanism, making it difficult to adapt to complex positional deviations of the panel in the XY plane. This results in insufficient positioning accuracy and easily leads to defects such as processing offset and bonding misalignment.

[0003] Furthermore, existing straightening devices suffer from rigid contact between the straightening section and the panel edge, lacking a buffer structure. Excessive cylinder thrust can easily damage or break the brittle panel edge, resulting in a high yield loss rate. Simultaneously, the anti-static properties of the support and positioning components are insufficient; traditional metal materials easily accumulate static electricity, affecting positioning efficiency. Additionally, existing straightening devices have high maintenance costs. Core components are mostly integral designs, requiring disassembly of the transmission system for replacement after localized wear, which is time-consuming and reduces production line uptime. Some devices use ordinary plastic support structures, which are prone to wear and dust generation over long-term use, contaminating the panel surface and further reducing product yield.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of panel position correction device to meet the needs of large-scale processing of precision electronic products. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main objective of this disclosure is to provide a panel position correction device and processing equipment that can achieve high-precision positioning of the panel in the XY plane through the coordinated action of the reference mechanism and the correction mechanism, thereby ensuring processing quality and efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, a first aspect of this disclosure provides a panel position correction device disposed on the periphery of a support platform, the support platform having a support plane for supporting the panel body, the correction device comprising:

[0007] The reference mechanism, located on the periphery of the support platform, is used to adjust and determine the positioning reference of the panel body. The reference mechanism can adjust and determine two different positioning references that are set at an angle.

[0008] The correction mechanism includes a main body, an elastic element, and a correction part. The main body is disposed on the periphery of the support platform. The first end of the elastic element is directly or indirectly connected to the main body, and the second end of the elastic element is directly or indirectly connected to the correction part.

[0009] The correction section can push against one side of the panel body and bring the other side of the panel body to the positioning reference.

[0010] The reference mechanism is located around the support platform and is used to adjust and determine the positioning reference of the panel body. It can adjust and determine two different positioning references that are set at an angle. The correction mechanism includes a main body, an elastic element, and a correction part. The main body is located around the support platform. The two ends of the elastic element are directly or indirectly connected to the main body and the correction part, respectively. The correction part can push against one side of the panel body so that the other side of the panel body reaches the positioning reference.

[0011] The combined use of the reference mechanism and the correction mechanism enables the panel body to be precisely positioned on the supporting plane. The reference mechanism establishes the positioning reference, while the correction mechanism corrects the panel body according to these references, ensuring the accurate positioning of the panel body.

[0012] In this technical solution, both the reference mechanism and the correction mechanism are located on the periphery of the support platform, forming a panel position correction system together with the support plane on the support platform. The reference mechanism determines the positioning reference, and the correction mechanism, through the connection between the elastic element and the main body and the correction part, realizes the pushing and correction of the panel body, ensuring that the panel body is aligned with the positioning reference.

[0013] The above technical solution can improve the accuracy and efficiency of panel position correction. By combining the reference mechanism and the correction mechanism, the accurate positioning of the panel body on the support plane can be ensured, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality.

[0014] In some examples, the reference mechanism includes a coarse adjustment mechanism and a fine adjustment mechanism, with the coarse adjustment mechanism having a lower adjustment accuracy than the fine adjustment mechanism.

[0015] The aforementioned reference mechanism may include a coarse adjustment sub-mechanism and a fine adjustment sub-mechanism. The coarse and fine adjustment sub-mechanisms can be adjusted independently, each with different adjustment ranges. Working together, they can achieve a wider range and higher precision reference adjustment. The coarse adjustment sub-mechanism has lower adjustment precision and is used for large-scale initial adjustments; while the fine adjustment sub-mechanism has higher adjustment precision and is used for fine adjustments based on the coarse adjustment.

[0016] When the coarse adjustment mechanism and the fine adjustment mechanism are used together, they constitute the complete function of the reference mechanism. This combination allows the reference mechanism to perform both rapid adjustments over a wide range and high-precision fine adjustments, thus meeting different adjustment needs. This combination improves the flexibility and practicality of the reference mechanism.

[0017] In some examples, the coarse adjustment submechanism includes:

[0018] The first adjustment structure is movably connected relative to the support platform along a first direction.

[0019] The second adjustment structure is movably connected to the support platform along the second direction, with the first direction and the second direction being set at an angle relative to each other.

[0020] With the cooperation of the first adjustment structure and the second adjustment structure, the reference part on the reference mechanism can move closer to, further away from, be raised or lowered relative to the support platform in at least one of the following actions.

[0021] The first adjustment structure is movably connected to the support platform along a first direction, meaning that the first adjustment structure can move or adjust in a specific first direction. The second adjustment structure is movably connected to the support platform along a second direction, which is angled relative to the first direction, meaning that the second adjustment structure can move or adjust in a direction different from the first direction.

[0022] When the first and second adjustment structures are used in combination, they work together on the reference part of the reference mechanism, enabling it to perform at least one of the following actions relative to the support platform: moving closer, moving further away, raising, or lowering. This combination allows the reference part to achieve more complex positioning or adjustment in a two-dimensional plane or in three-dimensional space.

[0023] In some examples, at least one of the straightening section and the reference section includes a roller structure capable of abutting the edge of the panel body.

[0024] The roller structure is designed to abut against the edge of the panel body. This roller structure design provides rolling contact, reducing friction with the panel body edge and facilitating movement and position adjustment.

[0025] When at least one of the straightening section and the reference section includes a roller structure, the combined use of these two components can significantly improve operational flexibility and accuracy. In the straightening section, the roller structure helps the panel body move smoothly during adjustment; in the reference section, it serves as a stable support point, ensuring the stability of the panel body when in a fixed position.

[0026] The application of a roller structure significantly improves the efficiency and accuracy of adjusting the position of the panel body's edge. Rolling contact reduces friction, lowers the difficulty of operation, and ensures smooth and precise adjustments.

[0027] In some examples, the first direction is parallel to the horizontal direction, and the first adjustment structure can move the reference part closer to or further away from the support platform in the horizontal direction.

[0028] The second direction is the direction of tilt towards the support platform. The second adjustment structure can drive the reference part to move in the tilt direction to achieve the action of moving closer and lifting, and moving further away and falling.

[0029] This disclosure achieves precise control of the reference unit in a specified direction through the synergistic action of a first adjustment structure and a second adjustment structure. The first adjustment structure is responsible for horizontal movement, while the second adjustment structure is responsible for tilting movement. These two adjustment structures work together on the reference unit to form a complete and flexibly controllable mechanical system.

[0030] This disclosure improves the motion flexibility and accuracy of the reference section. Through the cooperation of the first and second adjustment structures, precise control of the reference section in three-dimensional space can be achieved, thereby meeting various complex operational requirements.

[0031] In some examples, the fine-tuning submechanism is positioned below the first adjustment structure.

[0032] This layout design makes the fine-tuning submechanism more stable during precise adjustments. Located below the first adjustment structure, the submechaniss benefits from the support provided by the first structure, ensuring that no unnecessary swaying or deviation occurs during adjustment. Furthermore, this layout optimizes the spatial structure of the entire reference mechanism, making it more compact and efficient, facilitating operation and adjustment within limited installation space.

[0033] In some examples, the support plane is a plane in the XY direction, and the reference mechanism is provided in two sets, including at least one X-axis reference element and at least one Y-axis reference element. The correction mechanism is provided in two sets, including at least one X-axis correction element and at least one Y-axis correction element.

[0034] The X-axis reference component and the X-axis correction component are respectively located on opposite sides of the panel body, and the Y-axis reference component and the Y-axis correction component are respectively located on opposite sides of the panel body.

[0035] The supporting plane is a plane in the XY direction, providing the foundation for the entire technical solution. Two sets of reference mechanisms are provided, each including at least one X-axis reference element and at least one Y-axis reference element, used to determine the reference position of the panel body. Similarly, two sets of correction mechanisms are provided, each including at least one X-axis correction element and at least one Y-axis correction element, used to correct the position of the panel body.

[0036] When the reference mechanism and the correction mechanism are used in combination, the X-axis reference component and the X-axis correction component are respectively positioned on opposite sides of the panel body, forming a reference for determining the X-axis direction and correcting the position; similarly, the Y-axis reference component and the Y-axis correction component are also respectively positioned on opposite sides of the panel body, forming a reference for determining the Y-axis direction and correcting the position. This combination ensures the precise positioning and correction of the panel body in the XY plane.

[0037] The reference mechanism and the correction mechanism are connected to the panel body in a specific configuration. The reference mechanism is used to determine the initial position of the panel body, while the correction mechanism corrects the panel body according to the position of the reference mechanism to ensure that the panel body achieves the predetermined positional accuracy.

[0038] In some examples, the corrective mechanism includes:

[0039] The first correction structure is movably connected to the support platform along a third direction.

[0040] The second correction structure is movably connected to the support platform along the fourth direction, and the third direction is set at an angle relative to the fourth direction.

[0041] With the cooperation of the first and second correction structures, the correction part on the reference mechanism can move closer to, further away from, lift up or fall down relative to the support platform.

[0042] The cooperation of the first and second correction structures ensures that they can move smoothly and accurately in their respective directions. The relative angles of the third and fourth directions are typically set to accommodate various deviations that may exist in the panel body within the XY plane, thereby achieving omnidirectional correction. This design not only improves the flexibility of correction but also enhances its accuracy.

[0043] During the correction process, the first and second correction structures work together to make subtle adjustments to the panel body based on the positional information provided by the reference mechanism. This coordinated action ensures that the correction unit can move closer to, further away from, lift, or lower relative to the support platform, thereby effectively correcting positional deviations of the panel body. This comprehensive correction capability allows the entire technical solution to maintain high precision and stability even in complex and changing installation environments.

[0044] In some examples, at least one guide rod is provided on the main body, the elastic element is a spring structure, the spring structure is sleeved on the guide rod, the correcting part is slidably connected to the guide rod, and a locking element is provided at the end of the guide rod away from the main body to prevent the correcting part from falling off.

[0045] The main body is the foundation of the correction mechanism. A guide rod is mounted on the main body to guide and support the movement of the correction unit. A spring-type elastic element is fitted onto the guide rod, providing necessary elasticity and a return function. The correction unit is slidably connected to the guide rod, allowing it to move under its guidance. A locking element is located at the end of the guide rod away from the main body to prevent the correction unit from falling off during movement.

[0046] The combination of the guide rod and the main body provides a stable motion track for the correction unit; the combination of the spring structure and the guide rod enables the correction unit to reset after being subjected to external force; the sliding connection between the correction unit and the guide rod realizes the adjustability of the correction unit; the combination of the locking element and the guide rod ensures the safety of the correction unit within its range of motion. These technical features together constitute the core function of the device.

[0047] The main body serves as a supporting structure and connects to the guide rod; the guide rod passes through the spring structure and the straightening part to achieve a sliding connection; the spring structure is sleeved on the guide rod to provide elasticity to the straightening part; the straightening part moves under the guidance of the guide rod to achieve the straightening function; a locking element is set at the end of the guide rod to prevent the straightening part from falling off.

[0048] A second aspect of this disclosure provides a processing apparatus for an electronic product, including the aforementioned panel position correction device.

[0049] This processing equipment significantly improves the positioning accuracy and processing adaptability for various types of products, including mobile phones, tablets, computers, and television panels, through the integration of a panel position correction device. The bidirectional adjustment of the reference mechanism (X-axis / Y-axis reference components) and the elastic buffer design of the correction mechanism (spring structure + guide rod) work synergistically, combined with the step-by-step action logic of the reference-side horizontal / slanted push cylinders and the auxiliary reference cylinders, achieving a panel positioning accuracy of ±0.02mm in the XY plane. This reduces positioning errors by more than 70% compared to traditional single-direction cylinder positioning solutions, effectively avoiding processing defects such as cutting offset and misalignment caused by positional deviations.

[0063] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this disclosure can be combined with each other. This disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0064] To solve the above technical problems, please refer to Figures 1-5 As shown, the first aspect of this application proposes a panel position correction device, which can achieve high-precision positioning of the panel in the XY plane through the coordinated action of the reference mechanism 100 and the correction mechanism 200, thereby ensuring processing quality and efficiency.

[0065] Reference Figures 1-5 As shown, in some examples, the panel position correction device is disposed around the periphery of the support platform, which has a support plane for supporting the panel body 300. The correction device includes:

[0066] The reference mechanism 100 is disposed on the periphery of the support platform and is used to adjust and determine the positioning reference of the panel body 300. The reference mechanism 100 can adjust and determine two different positioning references that are set at an angle.

[0067] The correction mechanism 200 includes a main body 210, an elastic element 220, and a correction part 230. The main body 210 is disposed on the periphery of the support platform. The first end of the elastic element 220 is directly or indirectly connected to the main body 210, and the second end of the elastic element 220 is directly or indirectly connected to the correction part 230.

[0068] The correction part 230 can push against one side of the panel body 300 and bring the other side of the panel body 300 to the positioning reference.

[0069] The reference mechanism 100 is disposed on the periphery of the support platform and is used to adjust and determine the positioning reference of the panel body 300. It can adjust and determine two different positioning references that are set at an angle. The correction mechanism 200 includes a main body 210, an elastic member 220 and a correction part 230. The main body 210 is disposed on the periphery of the support platform. The two ends of the elastic member 220 are directly or indirectly connected to the main body 210 and the correction part 230, respectively. The correction part 230 can push against one side of the panel body 300 so that the other side of the panel body 300 reaches the positioning reference.

[0070] The combined use of the reference mechanism 100 and the correction mechanism 200 enables the panel body 300 to be precisely positioned on the support plane. The reference mechanism 100 determines the positioning reference, and the correction mechanism 200 corrects the panel body 300 according to these references to ensure the accurate position of the panel body 300.

[0071] In this technical solution, both the reference mechanism 100 and the correction mechanism 200 are located on the periphery of the support platform, forming a panel position correction system together with the support plane on the support platform. The reference mechanism 100 determines the positioning reference, and the correction mechanism 200, through the connection of the elastic element 220 with the main body 210 and the correction part 230, realizes the pushing and correction of the panel body 300, ensuring that the panel body 300 is aligned with the positioning reference.

[0072] The above technical solution can improve the accuracy and efficiency of panel position correction. By combining the reference mechanism 100 and the correction mechanism 200, the panel body 300 can be positioned accurately on the support plane, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality.

[0073] The reference mechanism 100 can adjust and define two different, angled positioning references, which increases the flexibility of correction and adapts to panel bodies 300 of different shapes and sizes. The correction mechanism 200, connected by the elastic element 220, can moderately push against the panel body 300, ensuring that the other side of the panel body 300 reaches the positioning reference, thereby achieving precise correction. This combined approach makes the entire technical solution highly accurate and efficient in panel position correction.

[0074] The above-mentioned technical solution is not only applicable to panel position correction, but can also be extended to other scenarios requiring precise positioning. For example, in fields such as machining and automated assembly, similar reference mechanisms 100 and correction mechanisms 200 can be used in combination to achieve precise positioning and correction of workpieces. Furthermore, with the development of intelligent manufacturing technology, this technical solution can also be combined with technologies such as machine vision and sensors to achieve more intelligent and automated panel position correction.

[0075] This disclosure enables the panel to achieve high-precision positioning, damage prevention, and anti-static properties in the XY plane through the coordinated action of the reference mechanism 100 and the correction mechanism 200, thus ensuring processing quality and efficiency.

[0076] Reference Figures 1-5 As shown, in some examples, the reference mechanism 100 includes a coarse adjustment sub-mechanism 110 and a fine adjustment sub-mechanism 120, wherein the adjustment accuracy of the coarse adjustment sub-mechanism 110 is less than that of the fine adjustment sub-mechanism 120.

[0077] The aforementioned reference mechanism 100 may include a coarse adjustment sub-mechanism 110 and a fine adjustment sub-mechanism 120. The coarse adjustment sub-mechanism 110 and the fine adjustment sub-mechanism 120 can be adjusted independently, each with different adjustment ranges. Working together, they can achieve a wider range and higher precision reference adjustment. The coarse adjustment sub-mechanism 110 has lower adjustment precision and is used for large-scale initial adjustments; while the fine adjustment sub-mechanism 120 has higher adjustment precision and is used for fine adjustments based on the coarse adjustment.

[0078] When the coarse adjustment submechanism 110 and the fine adjustment submechanism 120 are used together, they constitute the complete function of the reference mechanism 100. This combination allows the reference mechanism 100 to perform both wide-range rapid adjustments and high-precision fine adjustments, thus meeting different adjustment needs. This combination improves the flexibility and practicality of the reference mechanism 100.

[0079] In the technical solution, the coarse adjustment submechanism 110 and the fine adjustment submechanism 120 are interconnected through some connection mechanism (such as mechanical connection, electronic connection, etc.) to form a whole. This connection relationship ensures the coordination and synchronization between coarse adjustment and fine adjustment, so that the reference mechanism 100 can be adjusted in a predetermined manner.

[0080] By combining the coarse adjustment mechanism 110 and the fine adjustment mechanism 120, high-precision and high-flexibility adjustment of the reference mechanism 100 is achieved. This adjustment method not only improves work efficiency but also reduces operational difficulty and error rate. Furthermore, the stability and reliability of the reference mechanism 100 are also enhanced.

[0081] Because the coarse adjustment submechanism 110 can perform rapid, wide-range adjustments, while the fine adjustment submechanism 120 can perform high-precision adjustments within a small range, this combination significantly improves the adjustment accuracy and efficiency of the reference mechanism 100. Simultaneously, since the coordination between coarse and fine adjustments is ensured, the stability and reliability of the reference mechanism 100 are also enhanced. The derivation of these technical effects is based on the collaborative working principle of the coarse adjustment submechanism 110 and the fine adjustment submechanism 120 in the technical solution.

[0082] The reference mechanism 100 has a wide range of applications, including but not limited to mechanical manufacturing, precision instruments, and electronic equipment. In these fields, the high precision and flexible adjustment capabilities of the reference mechanism 100 are of great significance for improving product quality and production efficiency.

[0083] Reference Figures 1-5 As shown, in some examples, the coarse adjustment submechanism 110 includes:

[0084] The first adjustment structure 111 is movably connected relative to the support platform along the first direction 140.

[0085] The second adjustment structure 112 is movably connected to the support platform along the second direction 150, and the first direction 140 and the second direction 150 are set at an angle relative to each other.

[0086] With the cooperation of the first adjustment structure 111 and the second adjustment structure 112, the reference part 130 on the reference mechanism 100 can move closer to, further away from, lift up or drop relative to the support platform.

[0087] The first adjustment structure 111 is movably connected to the support platform along a first direction 140, which means that the first adjustment structure 111 can move or adjust in a specific first direction 140. The second adjustment structure 112 is movably connected to the support platform along a second direction 150, which is angularly set relative to the first direction 140, meaning that the second adjustment structure 112 can move or adjust in a direction different from the first direction 140.

[0088] When the first adjustment structure 111 and the second adjustment structure 112 are used in combination, they work together on the reference portion 130 on the reference mechanism 100, enabling it to perform at least one of the following actions relative to the support platform: moving closer, moving further away, raising, or lowering. This combination allows the reference portion 130 to achieve more complex positioning or adjustment in a two-dimensional plane or in three-dimensional space.

[0089] The aforementioned first adjustment structure 111 and second adjustment structure 112 are not necessarily connected to the support platform; they can also be connected to a dedicated bracket on the periphery of the support platform, depending on the specific requirements. This design flexibility allows the positions of the first adjustment structure 111 and second adjustment structure 112 to be adjusted according to actual needs in different working environments to achieve the best adjustment effect. The introduction of the dedicated bracket not only provides additional stability and support but also enables the adjustment structure to more precisely control the movement trajectory of the reference part 130. Whether connected to the support platform or the dedicated bracket, the core function of the first adjustment structure 111 and second adjustment structure 112—that is, working together to achieve precise positioning of the reference part 130 in two-dimensional or three-dimensional space—remains unchanged. This design takes into account various needs that may arise in practical applications, ensuring the high adaptability and flexibility of the correction device and processing equipment.

[0090] The technical advantage of the above-mentioned solution lies in providing a highly flexible and precise positioning and adjustment capability for the reference unit 130. Through the independent and combined actions of the first adjustment structure 111 and the second adjustment structure 112, precise control of the reference unit 130 in multiple directions can be achieved, which is particularly important for applications requiring high-precision positioning.

[0091] Since the first adjustment structure 111 and the second adjustment structure 112 can move in different directions respectively, and their interaction with the reference mechanism 100 is controllable, it can be deduced that the system can achieve multi-dimensional precise adjustment of the reference part 130. This adjustment capability thus meets the requirements of high-precision positioning.

[0092] Reference Figures 1-5 As shown, in some examples, at least one of the correction part 230 and the reference part 130 includes a roller structure capable of abutting the edge of the panel body 300.

[0093] The roller structure is designed to abut against the edge of the panel body 300. This roller structure design provides rolling contact, reducing friction with the edge of the panel body 300 and facilitating movement and position adjustment.

[0094] When at least one of the straightening section 230 and the reference section 130 includes a roller structure, the combined use of these two components can significantly improve the flexibility and accuracy of operation. In the straightening section 230, the roller structure helps the panel body 300 move smoothly during adjustment; in the reference section 130, it serves as a stable support point, ensuring the stability of the panel body 300 when in a fixed position.

[0095] The application of the roller structure significantly improves the efficiency and accuracy of adjusting the 300mm edge position of the panel body. Rolling contact reduces friction, lowers the difficulty of operation, and ensures smooth and precise adjustments.

[0096] By reducing friction and increasing flexibility, the roller structure can more effectively meet the requirements for precise adjustment of the panel body 300, thus demonstrating the significant advantages of this technical solution in practical applications.

[0097] The outer periphery of the aforementioned roller structure can be equipped with a buffer structure, or a rigid roller can be installed independently. The buffer structure further enhances the stability and protection of the roller structure when it contacts the edge of the panel body 300, reducing potential damage to the panel body 300. Rigid rollers are suitable for scenarios requiring more precise control and greater support, ensuring the accuracy and stability of adjustments.

[0098] Alternatively, at least one of the straightening section 230 and the reference section 130 can be configured as an abutment block as needed. The abutment block design provides a simple and effective contact method, suitable for initial positioning or rapid adjustment of the panel body 300. These design options make the application of the roller structure and its related components more flexible and adaptable to the needs of different scenarios, further improving the practicality and efficiency of the entire straightening device.

[0099] Reference Figures 1-5 As shown, in some examples, the first direction 140 is parallel to the horizontal direction, and the first adjustment structure 111 can move the reference part 130 closer to or further away from the support platform in the horizontal direction.

[0100] The second direction 150 is a direction tilted toward the support platform. The second adjustment structure 112 can drive the base part 130 to move in the tilt direction to achieve the action of approaching and lifting, and moving away and falling.

[0101] This disclosure achieves precise control of the reference unit 130 in a specified direction through the coordinated action of the first adjustment structure 111 and the second adjustment structure 112. The first adjustment structure 111 is responsible for horizontal movement, while the second adjustment structure 112 is responsible for tilting movement. These two adjustment structures work together on the reference unit 130 to form a complete and flexibly controllable mechanical system.

[0102] This disclosure improves the movement flexibility and accuracy of the reference unit 130. Through the cooperation of the first adjustment structure 111 and the second adjustment structure 112, precise control of the reference unit 130 in three-dimensional space can be achieved, thereby meeting various complex operational requirements.

[0103] This design enables the correction device to make precise adjustments to the panel body 300 in multiple dimensions. When the first adjustment structure 111 is working, the horizontal movement of the reference part 130 can fine-tune the horizontal position of the panel body 300, ensuring its levelness during processing and avoiding processing errors caused by positional deviations. The second adjustment structure 112, through tilting movement, not only enables the panel body 300 to be moved closer to or further away, but more importantly, it can lift the panel body 300 while moving closer, or lower the panel body 300 while moving away. This combined action greatly enhances the flexibility and adaptability of the correction device.

[0104] For example, when fine height adjustments to the panel body 300 are required, the second adjustment structure 112 can operate independently, achieving precise height correction through tilting movement, without relying on other complex lifting mechanisms. This design not only simplifies the structure of the correction device but also improves its efficiency and reliability.

[0105] In some examples, the fine-tuning submechanism 120 is positioned below the first adjustment structure 111.

[0106] This layout design makes the fine-tuning sub-mechanism 120 more stable during fine adjustments. Located below the first adjustment structure 111, the fine-tuning sub-mechanism 120 benefits from the support provided by the first adjustment structure 111, ensuring that no unnecessary shaking or deviation occurs during adjustment. Simultaneously, this layout also helps optimize the spatial structure of the entire reference mechanism 100, making it more compact and rational, facilitating operation and adjustment within limited installation space.

[0107] Furthermore, the design of the fine-tuning sub-mechanism 120 being positioned below the first adjustment structure 111 facilitates observation and operation by the operator. The operator can directly observe the working status of the fine-tuning sub-mechanism 120, thereby controlling the adjustment process more accurately. Simultaneously, this design also facilitates maintenance and upkeep of the fine-tuning sub-mechanism 120, extending its service life.

[0108] The layout of the fine-tuning submechanism 120 below the first adjustment structure 111 not only improves the stability and adjustment accuracy of the reference mechanism 100, but also optimizes the spatial structure, facilitating operation and maintenance. This design fully demonstrates the innovation and practicality of the technical solution, providing strong support for the correction of the panel position.

[0109] Reference Figures 1-5 As shown, in some examples, the support plane is a plane in the XY direction, and the reference mechanism 100 is provided in two sets, including at least one X-axis reference member and at least one Y-axis reference member. The correction mechanism 200 is provided in two sets, including at least one X-axis correction member and at least one Y-axis correction member.

[0110] The X-axis reference component and the X-axis correction component are respectively set on opposite sides of the panel body 300, and the Y-axis reference component and the Y-axis correction component are respectively set on opposite sides of the panel body 300.

[0111] The supporting plane is a plane in the XY direction, providing the foundation for the entire technical solution. The reference mechanism 100 is provided in two sets, each set including at least one X-axis reference element and at least one Y-axis reference element, used to determine the reference position of the panel body 300. The correction mechanism 200 is also provided in two sets, each set including at least one X-axis correction element and at least one Y-axis correction element, used to correct the position of the panel body 300.

[0112] When the reference mechanism 100 and the correction mechanism 200 are used in combination, the X-axis reference component and the X-axis correction component are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the panel body 300, forming a reference for determining the X-axis direction and correcting the position; similarly, the Y-axis reference component and the Y-axis correction component are also respectively arranged on opposite sides of the panel body 300, forming a reference for determining the Y-axis direction and correcting the position. This combination ensures the precise positioning and correction of the panel body 300 in the XY plane.

[0113] The reference mechanism 100 and the correction mechanism 200 are connected to the panel body 300 in a specific configuration. The reference mechanism 100 is used to determine the initial position of the panel body 300, and the correction mechanism 200 corrects the panel body 300 according to the position of the reference mechanism 100 to ensure that the panel body 300 achieves the predetermined positional accuracy.

[0114] By adopting this technical solution, precise positioning and correction of the panel body 300 in the XY plane can be achieved, improving the installation accuracy and stability of the panel body 300. Furthermore, due to the arrangement of the reference mechanism 100 and the correction mechanism 200, the entire technical solution has the advantages of simple structure, ease of implementation, and maintenance.

[0115] The technical effectiveness of this solution primarily stems from the precise coordination between the reference mechanism 100 and the correction mechanism 200. The reference mechanism 100 determines the initial position of the panel body 300, and the correction mechanism 200 then fine-tunes the panel body 300, ensuring that the panel body 300 achieves the predetermined positional accuracy. Furthermore, the stable support of the supporting plane enhances the overall stability and reliability of the solution.

[0116] Reference Figures 1-5 As shown, in some examples, the corrective mechanism 200 includes:

[0117] The first correction structure 211 is movably connected relative to the support platform along a third direction 250.

[0118] The second correction structure 212 is movably connected to the support platform along the fourth direction 260, and the third direction 250 is set at an angle relative to the fourth direction 260.

[0119] With the cooperation of the first correction structure 211 and the second correction structure 212, the correction part 230 on the reference mechanism 100 can move closer to, further away from, lift up or fall down relative to the support platform.

[0120] The cooperation of the first correction structure 211 and the second correction structure 212 ensures that they can move smoothly and accurately in their respective directions. The relative angles of the third direction 250 and the fourth direction 260 are typically designed to accommodate various deviations that may exist in the panel body 300 in the XY plane, thereby achieving omnidirectional correction. This design not only improves the flexibility of correction but also enhances its accuracy.

[0121] During the correction process, the first correction structure 211 and the second correction structure 212 work together to make subtle adjustments to the panel body 300 based on the position information provided by the reference mechanism 100. This coordinated action ensures that the correction unit 230 can move closer to, further away from, lift, or lower relative to the support platform, thereby effectively correcting the positional deviation of the panel body 300. This comprehensive correction capability allows the entire technical solution to maintain high precision and stability even in complex and changing installation environments.

[0122] Specifically, the first corrective structure 211 is a component movably connected to the support platform along a third direction 250, and it can move or adjust its position in the third direction 250. The second corrective structure 212 is a component movably connected to the support platform along a fourth direction 260, which is angled relative to the third direction 250, meaning that the second corrective structure 212 can move or adjust its position in a direction different from the third direction 250. These two independent technical features together constitute the basic part of the corrective mechanism 200, providing the necessary structural support for subsequent corrective actions.

[0123] When the first correction structure 211 and the second correction structure 212 are combined, they can work together to achieve multi-dimensional adjustment of the upper correction unit 230. Since the third direction 250 and the fourth direction 260 are set at an angle relative to each other, these two correction structures can form adjustment capabilities in two different directions on the plane. This combination allows the correction unit 230 to move closer to, further away from, lift, or lower relative to the support platform, thereby meeting different correction needs.

[0124] Reference Figures 1-5As shown, in some examples, the main body 210 is provided with at least one guide rod 213, the elastic element 220 is a spring structure, the spring structure is sleeved on the guide rod 213, the correction part 230 is slidably connected to the guide rod 213, and the end of the guide rod 213 away from the main body 210 is provided with a locking element 240 to prevent the correction part 230 from falling off.

[0125] The main body 210 is the basic structure of the corrective mechanism 200. A guide rod 213 is mounted on the main body 210 to guide and support the movement of the corrective part 230. An elastic element 220, employing a spring structure, is sleeved on the guide rod 213, providing necessary elasticity and reset function. The corrective part 230 is slidably connected to the guide rod 213 and can move under the guidance of the guide rod 213. A locking element 240 is located at the end of the guide rod 213 facing away from the main body 210 to prevent the corrective part 230 from falling off during movement. The attached figure shows the corrective mechanism 200 when the two guide rods 213 are engaged.

[0126] The combination of guide rod 213 and main body 210 provides a stable motion track for the correction part 230; the combination of spring structure and guide rod 213 enables the correction part 230 to reset after being subjected to external force; the sliding connection between the correction part 230 and guide rod 213 realizes the adjustability of the correction part 230; the combination of locking member 240 and guide rod 213 ensures the safety of the correction part 230 within its range of motion. The combination of these technical features constitutes the core function of the device.

[0127] The main body 210 serves as a support structure and connects to the guide rod 213. The guide rod 213 passes through the spring structure and the straightening part 230 to achieve a sliding connection. The spring structure is sleeved on the guide rod 213 to provide elasticity to the straightening part 230. The straightening part 230 moves under the guidance of the guide rod 213 to achieve the straightening function. The locking member 240 is provided at the end of the guide rod 213 to prevent the straightening part 230 from falling off.

[0128] The guide rod 213 and locking element 240 ensure the stability and safety of the straightening unit 230; the spring structure enables the straightening unit 230 to have an automatic reset function, improving the adaptability and durability of the device; the sliding connection design of the straightening unit 230 allows the device to adapt to objects of different sizes and shapes for straightening. These technical features work together to give the device a highly efficient, stable, and safe straightening effect.

[0129] The guide rod 213 and locking element 240 limit the range of motion of the correction unit 230, preventing it from falling off or becoming uncontrollable during the correction process. The elastic force of the spring structure allows the correction unit 230 to quickly reset after being subjected to external force, ensuring the accuracy and continuity of the correction. The sliding connection design of the correction unit 230 allows the device to flexibly adjust the correction position and force to adapt to different needs. The combined effect of these technical features leads to the efficient, stable, and safe correction effect of the device.

[0130] The panel body 300 includes at least one of a mobile phone panel, a tablet panel, a computer panel, and a TV panel.

[0131] These different types of panel bodies 300 may differ in size, shape, and material, but all require precise alignment devices to ensure accurate positioning. Mobile phone panels are typically small and thin, requiring high-precision alignment to ensure assembly quality; tablet panels are larger, with equally high requirements for flatness and positional accuracy; computer panels may contain multiple components, requiring alignment devices to precisely position each component; and television panels may be larger and heavier, requiring alignment devices with sufficient support and stability.

[0132] The design of the straightening device can be adjusted and optimized according to different types of panel bodies 300. For example, for mobile phone panels, a more compact and refined straightening mechanism 200 can be used to meet its small size and high precision requirements; for flat panel panels, the number and distribution of straightening mechanisms 200 can be increased to ensure the flatness and positional accuracy of the entire panel; for computer panels, a more reasonable straightening scheme can be designed according to the layout and weight distribution of its components; for television panels, the straightening device needs to have stronger support and stability to ensure its safety during processing and assembly.

[0133] Furthermore, the straightening device can be customized to meet different processing needs and process requirements. For example, when cutting, drilling, or grinding the panel body 300 is required, the straightening device can be equipped with corresponding fixtures and tools to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of the processing. When assembling or testing the panel body 300 is required, the straightening device can provide stable support and positioning functions to ensure that each component can be correctly assembled and perform at its best.

[0134] The correction device disclosed herein achieves precise control and adjustment of the panel body 300 in multi-dimensional space through precise design and optimized combination. This technical solution not only improves the processing accuracy and stability of the panel body 300, but also provides a flexible and versatile solution for different types of panel bodies 300 and processing requirements.

[0135] When the first adjusting structure 111 includes a cylinder structure, it can be called a reference-side horizontal push cylinder. When the second adjusting structure 112 includes a cylinder structure, it can be called a reference-side oblique push cylinder. When the first correcting structure 211 includes a cylinder structure, it can be called an auxiliary reference horizontal push cylinder. When the second correcting structure 212 includes a cylinder structure, it can be called an auxiliary reference oblique push cylinder. The cooperation mechanism of the correcting part 230, the elastic element 220, and the guide rod 213 can be called an auxiliary reference floating mechanism.

[0136] These cylinders and mechanisms are designed to achieve precise adjustment and correction of the panel body 300 in specific directions. The reference-side horizontal push cylinder and the reference-side inclined push cylinder are mainly responsible for initial positioning in the horizontal and inclined directions, ensuring that the panel body 300 can enter the predetermined processing position. The auxiliary reference horizontal push cylinder and the auxiliary reference inclined push cylinder further refine the adjustment, ensuring the precise positioning of the panel body 300 in multi-dimensional space. The auxiliary reference floating mechanism, through the cooperation of the correction part 230, the elastic element 220 and the guide rod 213, achieves automatic compensation and adjustment for minor deviations of the panel body 300, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the processing.

[0137] The driving method described in this application is not limited to a cylinder structure; it can also be a combination of an electric cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, a motor, and a transmission mechanism. Transmission mechanisms include gear sets, racks and pinions, worm gears, lead screws, and nuts.

[0138] These different drive methods offer a variety of options to suit different application scenarios and processing requirements. For example, in applications requiring high precision and stability, electric cylinders may be a better choice because they typically offer higher control accuracy and smoother motion characteristics. Hydraulic cylinders, on the other hand, may be more suitable for applications requiring greater driving force or bearing heavier loads. The combination of a motor and transmission mechanism provides greater flexibility, allowing for the design and adjustment of the transmission ratio and motion characteristics according to specific processing needs.

[0139] A second aspect of this disclosure provides a processing apparatus for an electronic product, including the aforementioned panel position correction device.

[0140] This processing equipment significantly improves the positioning accuracy and processing adaptability for various types of products, including mobile phones, tablets, computers, and television panels, through the integrated panel position correction device. The bidirectional adjustment (X-axis / Y-axis reference components) of the reference mechanism 100 and the elastic buffer design (spring structure + guide rod 213) of the correction mechanism 200 work synergistically, combined with the step-by-step action logic of the reference side horizontal / slant-push cylinders and the auxiliary reference cylinders, achieving a panel positioning accuracy of ±0.02mm in the XY plane. This reduces positioning errors by more than 70% compared to traditional single-direction cylinder positioning schemes, effectively avoiding processing defects such as cutting offset and misalignment caused by positional deviations.

[0141] Meanwhile, the anti-static and adaptive design of the straightening device enhances the equipment's adaptability to precision machining environments. The product support platform and support pins are made of PEEK anti-static material, forming a continuous conductive network through conductive fillers, with a surface resistivity controlled at 10. 6 -10 12 The Ω, combined with the air blowing technology with a hole in the middle of the support pin, can quickly break the adsorption force when the static electricity is not released in time, which solves the problem that the panel cannot be detached due to static electricity accumulation in traditional metal support structures, and improves the positioning success rate to over 99.8%. The roller structure design of the correction part 230 and the reference part 130 reduces friction damage through rolling contact, reducing the panel edge crush rate from 3%-5% to below 0.5%, ensuring the processing yield of brittle panels such as glass and ceramics.

[0142] Furthermore, the modular structure and automated integration capabilities of the correction device optimize the overall operating efficiency of the processing equipment. The layered design of the coarse / fine adjustment sub-mechanisms 120 of the reference mechanism 100 (e.g., the fine adjustment sub-mechanism 120 is located below the first adjustment structure 111) supports rapid calibration and maintenance. The independent disassembly and assembly design of the cylinder assembly reduces the maintenance time to less than 30 minutes per maintenance session. The correction device is seamlessly integrated with the lifting support pin unit, robotic arm, and other modules of the equipment. Through the automated process of "positioning-lifting-picking," the panel unloading cycle is shortened by 20%, meeting the efficiency requirements of large-scale production of high-precision electronic products.

[0143] The aforementioned straightening device can be applied to the panel feeding mechanism to achieve high-precision control and adjustment of the panel feeding position. During the feeding process, the straightening device first determines the initial position of the panel through a reference mechanism, and then fine-tunes the panel through the straightening mechanism to ensure that the panel reaches the predetermined feeding position. This design not only improves the accuracy of feeding but also enhances the automation level and operating efficiency of the equipment.

[0144] Although embodiments of the present disclosure have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
