[0002] With the continuous advancement of technology, display panels, as an important means of human-computer interaction, are widely used in display terminals such as mobile phones, computers, iPads, and televisions. To ensure the performance and lifespan of display terminals, they need to undergo performance testing before leaving the factory.

[0003] Currently, after the display panel and conductive components are connected, testing equipment is typically used to test the connected display panel and conductive components, and a folding device is used to fold the connected display panel and conductive components. During the connection process, multiple camera modules are required for alignment feedback, and the alignment signal feedback takes a long time. The display panel and conductive components cannot meet the requirements for high-speed connection. Furthermore, since the connected display panel and conductive components require specific operations using multiple devices, the connection, testing, and folding operations are cumbersome and costly.

[0050] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0051] In the description of this application, it should be understood that if terms such as "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" appear, these terms indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0052] Furthermore, where the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, where the term "multiple" appears, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0053] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0054] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the use of descriptions such as "above" or "below" the second feature indicates that the first and second features are in direct contact or indirect contact via an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. Similarly, "below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0055] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. If so, the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0056] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0057] See Figures 1-3 As shown, this application provides a plug-in device 100, which includes a machine base 110, a first feeding mechanism 120, a second feeding mechanism 130, a plug-in mechanism 140, a first transfer mechanism 150, a testing mechanism 160, a second transfer mechanism 170, a folding mechanism 180, and a unloading mechanism 190. The plug-in mechanism 140, the first transfer mechanism 150, the testing mechanism 160, the second transfer mechanism 170, the folding mechanism 180, and the unloading mechanism 190 are arranged sequentially, such as the plug-in mechanism 140, the first transfer mechanism 150, the testing mechanism 160, the second transfer mechanism 170, the folding mechanism 180, and the unloading mechanism 190 along... Figure 1 The horizontal direction shown is set from left to right, and Figure 1The horizontal direction shown indicates the flow direction of materials from left to right. The insertion device 100 is used to sequentially insert, test, and fold the first product 200 and the second product 300. In this embodiment, the first product 200 includes, but is not limited to, conductive components. The first product 200 has an insertion end 210, such as a ribbon cable provided on the first product 200. The first product 200 can be a conductive component such as a PCB (Printed Circuit Board), FPC (Flexible Circuit Board), or FFC (Flexible Flat Cable). The second product 300 includes, but is not limited to, a display panel. The second product 300 has a conductive end 310, such as an electrical connection port electrically connected to the second product 300.

[0058] The first feeding mechanism 120 is used to feed the first product 200 to the insertion mechanism 140, the second feeding mechanism 130 is used to feed the second product 300 to the insertion mechanism 140, the insertion mechanism 140 is used to insert the first product 200 into the second product 300 to form a preset product, the first transfer mechanism 150 is used to feed the inserted preset product to the testing mechanism 160 for electrical testing, the second transfer mechanism 170 is used to feed the tested preset product to the folding mechanism 180 for folding, and the unloading mechanism 190 is used to unload the folded preset product. For example, firstly, the first feeding mechanism 120 and the second feeding mechanism 130 feed the first product 200 and the second product 300 to the insertion mechanism 140, respectively; secondly, the insertion mechanism 140 inserts the first product 200 into the second product 300 to complete the insertion operation of the preset product; then, the first transfer mechanism 150 feeds the inserted preset product to the testing mechanism 160, and performs electrical testing on the preset product through the testing mechanism 160; then, the second transfer mechanism 170 feeds the tested preset product to the folding mechanism 180, and performs a folding operation on the preset product through the folding mechanism 180; finally, the unloading mechanism 190 unloads the folded preset product.

[0059] The aforementioned insertion device 100 can automatically perform the loading, insertion, testing, folding and unloading operations of the first product 200 and the second product 300, and integrates the loading, insertion, testing, folding and unloading operations of the first product 200 and the second product 300, simplifying the operation steps of the first product 200 and the second product 300 and reducing the operation cost of the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0060] In one embodiment, see Figures 1-3As shown, the insertion mechanism 140 includes a first transfer line 141, a first detection module 142, a first insertion assembly 143, a second insertion assembly 144, and a second detection module 145. The first transfer line 141 has a front detection station 1411, an insertion station 1412, and a rear detection station 1413 arranged sequentially along the flow direction of the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0061] The first detection module 142 is located at the pre-detection station 1411. The first detection module 142 is used to detect the status of the incoming first product 200 and the second product 300. For example, if the first detection module 142 is a camera module, it detects the position, orientation, and other information of the incoming first product 200 and the second product 300 to ensure the accuracy of the subsequent insertion position of the first product 200 and the second product 300. The first insertion component 143 and the second insertion component 144 are both located at the insertion station 1412. The first insertion component 143 is used to hold the first product 200, and the second insertion component 144 is used to hold the second product 300. The first insertion component 143 can move towards or away from the second insertion component 144. Specifically, the first insertion component 143 holds the first product 200, and the second insertion component 144 holds the second product 300. The first insertion component 143 moves the first product 200 toward the side closer to the second product 300 and inserts the first product 200 into the second product 300, realizing the insertion operation between the first product 200 and the second product 300. After the above insertion operation is completed, the first insertion component 143 moves away from the second insertion component 144 to separate the first product 200 from the second product 300, or to re-perform the insertion operation between the first product 200 and the second product 300, thereby improving the insertion efficiency, accuracy and reliability between the first product 200 and the second product 300. The second detection module 145 is set at the post-detection station 1413. The second detection module 145 is used to detect the state of the preset product after testing. For example, if the second detection module 145 is a camera module, the second detection module 145 is used to detect the insertion quality of the first product 200 and the second product 300 after insertion, so as to ensure the insertion quality of the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0062] It should be noted that the first transfer line 141 is a magnetic levitation module. The magnetic levitation of the first product 200 and the second product 300 through the first transfer line 141 can improve the transmission rate of the first product 200 and the second product 300 to meet the high-speed plug-in requirements of the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0063] Specifically, see Figures 1-3As shown, the insertion device 100 also includes a first carrier 400 and a second carrier 500. The first carrier 400 is movably disposed on the machine base 110. The first carrier 400 is used to carry the first product 200. For example, the first carrier 400 is provided with a first bearing cavity 410. Preferably, there are multiple first bearing cavities 410 to simultaneously carry multiple first products 200 for insertion operations, thereby improving the insertion efficiency of the first products 200. The first bearing cavity 410 is a contour cavity to adapt to the placement of the first product 200, thereby improving the placement stability of the first product 200 within the first bearing cavity 410. The second carrier 500 is disposed corresponding to the first carrier 400 and is movably disposed on the machine base 110. For example, in this embodiment, the first carrier 400 and the second carrier 500 are disposed in pairs, and the first carrier 400 and the second carrier 500 move synchronously relative to the machine base 110. The second carrier 500 is used to carry the second product 300. If the second carrier 500 is provided with a second carrying cavity 510, preferably, there are multiple second carrying cavities 510 to simultaneously carry multiple second products 300 for insertion operations, thereby improving the insertion efficiency of the second products 300. The second carrying cavity 510 is a contour cavity to adapt to the carrying and placement of the second product 300, thereby improving the placement stability of the second product 300 in the second carrying cavity 510.

[0064] Continue reading Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first plug-in assembly 143 includes a first fixing frame 1431 and a plurality of first plug-in modules 1432. The plurality of first plug-in modules 1432 are movably disposed on the first fixing frame 1431. The first plug-in modules 1432 are used to hold the plug-in end 210 of the first product 200. The first plug-in module 1432 includes a first gripper 1433, a connecting pin 1434, and a push module 1435. The first gripper 1433 is used to grip the plug-in end 210 of the first product 200. The push module 1435 can push the first gripper 1433 to move toward or away from the second plug-in assembly 144. If the push module 1435 is a drive module, it outputs power to the first gripper 1433 to realize the movement of the first gripper 1433 toward or away from the second plug-in assembly 144. The connecting pin 1434 has a first state and a second state. When the connecting pin 1434 is in the first state, it is connected to the first carrier 400. When the connecting pin 1434 is in the second state, it is separated from the first carrier 400. If the first carrier 400 is provided with a connecting hole corresponding to the connecting pin 1434, the first plug-in module 1432 is connected to the first carrier 400 by inserting the connecting pin 1434 into the connecting hole, and the first plug-in module 1432 is separated from the first carrier 400 by removing the connecting pin 1434 from the connecting hole.

[0065] When the aforementioned insertion device 100 needs to perform an insertion operation between the first product 200 and the second product 300, firstly, the connecting pin 1434 switches to a first state connected to the first carrier 400, thereby connecting the first insertion module 1432 to the first carrier 400 and ensuring that the subsequent first insertion component 143 can drive the first carrier 400 to move towards or away from the second insertion component 144; then, the first gripper 1433 clamps the insertion end 210 of the first product 200, ensuring the flatness and stability of the insertion end 210 of the first product 200 during the insertion process, preventing the insertion end 210 of the first product 200 from deforming due to external insertion force, thus improving the insertion between the first product 200 and the second product 300. To ensure alignment accuracy and reliability, the push module 1435 pushes the first gripper 1433 towards the direction of approaching the second insertion component 144 and inserts the first product 200 into the second product 300, thus realizing the insertion operation between the first product 200 and the second product 300. Next, the first gripper 1433 releases the insertion end 210 of the first product 200, and the push module 1435 pushes the first gripper 1433 towards the direction of away from the second insertion component 144. Finally, the connecting pin 1434 switches to a second state separated from the first carrier 400, thereby separating the first insertion module 1432 from the first carrier 400, facilitating the re-insertion of the insertion operation between the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0066] Preferably, the first gripper 1433 is controlled by electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic means to achieve automated gripping of the first product 200 by the first gripper 1433, and to improve the gripping reliability of the first product 200 by the first gripper 1433. Since the insertion end 210 of the first product 200 is flexible, it will deform under the action of insertion force. By gripping the insertion end 210 of the first product 200 by the first gripper 1433, the flatness and stability of the insertion end 210 of the first product 200 can be guaranteed during the insertion process. The insertion end 210 of the first product 200 will not deform under the action of insertion force, thereby improving the alignment accuracy and reliability between the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0067] Further reading Figure 6As shown, the second plug-in assembly 144 includes a second fixing frame 1441 and a plurality of second plug-in modules 1442, which are movably disposed on the second fixing frame 1441. The plurality of second plug-in modules 1442 correspond to a plurality of first plug-in modules 1432, such as the number of second plug-in modules 1442 being the same as the number of first plug-in modules 1432, and each second plug-in module 1442 corresponding to one first plug-in module 1432, such as the second plug-in modules 1442 and the first plug-in modules 1432 being symmetrically disposed on opposite sides of the first conveyor line 141. Compared to the traditional insertion process, which involves a complex alignment structure and signal feedback, resulting in high insertion costs for the first product 200 and the second product 300 and failing to meet high-speed insertion requirements, the aforementioned multiple second insertion modules 1442, corresponding to multiple first insertion modules 1432, utilize a mechanical alignment method to ensure the positional accuracy of the first product 200 and the second product 300 during insertion. Furthermore, the mechanical structure is simpler, reducing insertion costs. Additionally, the mechanical alignment method eliminates the communication process, improving testing efficiency and meeting the high-speed insertion requirements of the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0068] The second insertion module 1442 includes a second gripper 1443. The second gripper 1443 is used to hold the conductive end 310 of the second product 300, ensuring the positional accuracy of the conductive end 310 during insertion. The conductive end 310 of the second product 300 will not shift due to external insertion forces, thus improving the alignment accuracy and reliability of the insertion position between the first product 200 and the second product 300. Preferably, the second gripper 1443 is controlled by electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic means to achieve automated gripping of the second product 300 by the second gripper 1443, and to improve the gripping reliability of the second product 300 by the second gripper 1443.

[0069] Specifically, when the second gripper 1443 grips the conductive end 310 of the second product 300, there is a clearance gap between the second gripper 1443 and the second product 300. Thus, the clearance fit between the second gripper 1443 and the second product 300 allows the second product 300 to have slight room for movement, adaptively adjusting the insertion position of the first product 200.

[0070] It should be noted that the second plug-in module 1442 also includes an adjustment component, which is used to adjust the position and orientation of the second gripper 1443, so that the relative position and angle between the second gripper 1443 and the first gripper 1433 remain consistent, thereby improving the alignment accuracy between the first product 200 and the second product 300. For example, the adjustment component can be an adjustment screw disposed on the second gripper 1443, and the position and orientation of the second gripper 1443 can be adjusted by turning the adjustment screw. This application does not limit the specific type of adjustment component.

[0071] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the second product 300 has a piano cover that can be pressed against the conductive end 310 of the second product 300. If the piano cover is rotated and positioned at the conductive end 310 of the second product 300, after the insertion end 210 of the first product 200 is inserted into the conductive end 310 of the second product 300, the piano cover rotates and closes onto the conductive end 310 of the second product 300 to ensure the stability of the insertion between the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0072] Furthermore, the second insertion assembly 144 also includes an opening and closing cover module 146, which is disposed on the second fixing frame 1441 and is used to close the piano cover. For example, when an insertion operation is required between the first product 200 and the second product 300, the first product 200 and the second product 300 are transferred to the insertion station 1412. At this time, the conductive end 310 of the second product 300 is exposed, allowing the insertion end 210 of the first product 200 to be inserted into the conductive end 310 of the second product 300. After the insertion operation between the first product 200 and the second product 300 is completed, the opening and closing cover module 146 closes the piano cover to stably insert the first product 200 into the second product 300.

[0073] Further, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the opening and closing module 146 includes a drive source 1461 and multiple pick-up blocks 1462, which are tractively connected to the drive source 1461. Each pick-up block 1462 corresponds to a multiple first insertion modules 1432, such as the number and position of the pick-up blocks 1462 and the first insertion modules 1432. The pick-up blocks 1462 are movably mounted on the second fixing frame 1441 and are used to close the piano lid. Specifically, after the insertion operation between the first product 200 and the second product 300 is completed, the drive source 1461 outputs power to the multiple pick-up blocks 1462, driving them to move synchronously and close the piano lids of each second product 300 by pushing, pressing, or other means, thereby stably inserting the first product 200 into the second product 300.

[0074] In this embodiment, the drive source 1461 may include, but is not limited to, electric, pneumatic, hydraulic and other power components. This application does not limit the specific component type of the drive source 1461.

[0075] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the folding mechanism 180 includes a flipping carrier 181 and a flipping assembly 182. The flipping carrier 181 includes a first carrier plate 1811 and a second carrier plate 1812. The first carrier plate 1811 is used to carry a first product 200. If the first carrier plate 1811 has a third carrier cavity 1814, the third carrier cavity 1814 can be used to carry the first product 200. The second carrier plate 1812 is used to carry a second product 300. If the second carrier plate 1812 has a fourth carrier cavity 1815, the fourth carrier cavity 1815 can be used to carry the second product 300. The second carrier plate 1812 is rotatably connected to the first carrier plate 1811. For example, the second carrier plate 1812 can be rotatably connected to the first carrier plate 1811 through a rotating component such as a pivot or hinge, so that the second carrier plate 1812 can rotate relative to the first carrier plate 1811 through the rotating component. The second carrier plate 1812 is provided with a first mating part 1813.

[0076] The flipping assembly 182 includes a flipping bracket 1821 and a rotating module 1822. The flipping bracket 1821 is provided with a second mating part 1823, which can be connected to a first mating part 1813. The rotating module 1822 is connected to the second mating part 1823 in a transmission manner, and the rotating module 1822 is used to drive the second mating part 1823 to rotate. Specifically, when the first product 200 and the second product 300 need to be flipped and folded, the first product 200 is housed in the first carrier plate 1811, the second product 300 is housed in the second carrier plate 1812, and the second mating part 1823 can be connected to the first mating part 1813 to realize the transmission connection between the rotating module 1822 and the second carrier plate 1812. During the rotation of the second mating part 1823 driven by the rotating module 1822, the second mating part 1823 can rotate the second carrier plate 1812 relative to the first carrier plate 1811 to complete the flipping and folding operation of the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0077] The aforementioned plug-in device 100 automatically completes the flipping and folding operation of the first product 200 and the second product 300, reducing the labor intensity of flipping and folding between the first product 200 and the second product 300, and ensuring the folding consistency of the first product 200 and the second product 300 after flipping, thereby reducing the folding fit error of the first product 200 and the second product 300 and improving the fit accuracy of the first product 200 and the second product 300 after folding.

[0078] Specifically, see Figure 1 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the first mating part 1813 is a groove provided in the second carrier plate 1812, and the second mating part 1823 is a protrusion provided in the flipping bracket 1821, and the protrusion is rotatably provided in the flipping bracket 1821. In this way, through the connection and engagement of the first mating part 1813 and the second mating part 1823, the transmission connection between the rotating module 1822 and the second carrier plate 1812 can be realized. The rotating module 1822 completes the rotation operation between the second carrier plate 1812 and the first carrier plate 1811, so as to realize the flipping and folding operation between the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0079] It should be noted that in other feasible embodiments, the first mating part 1813 and the second mating part 1823 can also be a combination structure of a snap and a slot. This application does not limit the specific structural type of the first mating part 1813 and the second mating part 1823.

[0080] Further, see Figure 1 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, the folding mechanism 180 also includes a limiting component 183, which is disposed on the second carrier plate 1812. The limiting component 183 is used to limit the position of the second product 300 within the fourth carrier cavity 1815, and to limit the position of the second product 300 relative to the first product 200 after it is flipped. Thus, during the flipping and folding operation of the first product 200 and the second product 300, the limiting component 183 can limit the position of the second product 300 within the fourth carrier cavity 1815, preventing the second product 300 from shifting due to the abutting force of the first product 200 during the flipping and folding process. Furthermore, after the second product 300 is flipped to a position covering the first product 200, the limiting component 183 can limit the position of the second product 300 relative to the first product 200, thereby improving the flipping and folding accuracy and reliability between the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0081] Specifically, see Figure 1 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, the limiting component 183 includes a first limiting boss 1831 and a second limiting boss 1832. The first limiting boss 1831 is movably disposed on the second carrier plate 1812, and protrudes from the side of the second carrier plate 1812 where a fourth bearing cavity 1815 is provided. The first limiting boss 1831 can abut against the first carrier plate 1811. The second limiting boss 1832 is disposed on the first carrier plate 1811, and protrudes from the side of the first carrier plate 1811 where a third bearing cavity 1814 is provided. Both the first limiting boss 1831 and the second limiting boss 1832 can abut against the second product 300. When the first limiting boss 1831 separates from the first carrier plate 1811, the first limiting boss 1831 abuts against the second product 300; when the first limiting boss 1831 abuts against the first carrier plate 1811, the first limiting boss 1831 moves toward the direction of being received in the second carrier plate 1812, and the first limiting boss 1831 separates from the second product 300, while the second limiting boss 1832 abuts against the second product 300. Specifically, when performing the flipping and folding operation between the first product 200 and the second product 300, firstly, the first product 200 is placed in the third bearing cavity 1814 of the first carrier plate 1811, and the second product 300 is placed in the fourth bearing cavity 1815 of the second carrier plate 1812. The first limiting boss 1831 protrudes from the side of the second carrier plate 1812 where the fourth bearing cavity 1815 is located. The first limiting boss 1831 can limit the position of the second product 300 in the fourth bearing cavity 1815, preventing the second product 300 from shifting due to the abutting force of the first product 200 during the flipping and folding process. Then, when the second carrier plate 1812 rotates relative to the first carrier plate 1811 until the first limiting boss 1831 abuts against the first carrier plate 1811, the first carrier plate 1811 applies an abutting force to the first limiting boss 1831. 31. The first limiting boss 1831 moves toward the direction of being received in the second carrier plate 1812, the first limiting boss 1831 separates from the second product 300, and the second limiting boss 1832 abuts against the second product 300. The second limiting boss 1832 limits the position of the second product 300 relative to the first product 200 after flipping, thereby improving the flipping and folding accuracy and reliability between the first product 200 and the second product 300. Finally, after the flipping and folding operation of the first product 200 and the second product 300 is completed, the second carrier plate 1812 rotates in the opposite direction relative to the first carrier plate 1811, and the first limiting boss 1831 resets toward the direction protruding from the second carrier plate 1812, in preparation for the subsequent flipping and folding operation between the first product 200 and the second product 300, and facilitates the replacement operation of the folded first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0082] The first limiting boss 1831 can be movably mounted on the second carrier plate 1812 via an elastic element. The elastic force of the elastic element enables the first limiting boss 1831 to move and reset relative to the second carrier plate 1812. Alternatively, the first limiting boss 1831 can be movably mounted on the second carrier plate 1812 via a magnetic element. The magnetic force of the magnetic element enables the first limiting boss 1831 to move and reset relative to the second carrier plate 1812.

[0083] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the testing mechanism 160 includes multiple second transfer lines 161 and at least one testing component 162. The testing component 162 includes a first testing module 1621 and a second testing module 1622. Any second transfer line 161 can feed a preset product from the first transfer mechanism 150 to either the first testing module 1621 or the second testing module 1622. The testing mechanism 160 also includes a lifting module 163, which can feed the preset product transferred to the second transfer lines 161 to either the first testing module 1621 or the second testing module 1622 by lifting or lowering, alternately performing electrical testing operations on the preset product after insertion, thereby improving the efficiency of electrical testing of the preset product after insertion.

[0084] In this embodiment, see reference Figure 11 As shown, there are three second transfer lines 161, which are stacked perpendicular to the worktable surface. These three transfer lines 161 can alternately receive pre-set products after insertion. If the first test module 1621 is in a testing state and the second test module 1622 is in an idle state, the pre-set product received by any second transfer line 161 can be fed to the second test module 1622 via the lifting module 163. Conversely, if the first test module 1621 is in an idle state and the second test module 1622 is in a testing state, the pre-set product received by any second transfer line 161 can be fed to the first test module 1621 via the lifting module 163. It should be noted that in other feasible embodiments, the number of second transfer lines 161 can also be two, four, or other numbers. This application does not limit the specific number of second transfer lines 161.

[0085] Specifically, see Figure 1 , Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, both the first test module 1621 and the second test module 1622 include a base 1623, a conveying module 1624, and an alternation module 1625. Both modules also have a waiting area 1626 and a testing area 1627. The waiting area 1626 is used to temporarily store preset products, and the testing area 1627 is used to perform electrical tests on the preset products. Thus, by setting up the waiting area 1626 and the testing area 1627, the feeding time of the preset products can be reduced, further improving the efficiency of electrical testing.

[0086] Both the conveying module 1624 and the alternation module 1625 are disposed on the base 1623. The conveying module 1624 is used to receive the preset products flowing from the second transfer line 161 and enables the preset products to flow between the waiting area 1626 and the test area 1627. For example, if the conveying module 1624 is a conveyor belt and extends between the waiting area 1626 and the test area 1627, the conveying module 1624 can feed the preset products from the waiting area 1626 to the test area 1627 for electrical testing, or feed the preset products from the test area 1627 to the waiting area 1626 for unloading. The alternation module 1625 can be used for temporary storage of preset products on the waiting area 1626 or the test area 1627. For example, if the base 1623 is provided with a track groove 1629, the track groove 1629 has a lifting position and a receiving position, which are spaced apart along the height direction of the base 1623. The alternation module 1625 includes a roller and a bracket 1628. The roller is connected to the bracket 1628 and is rotatably disposed within a track groove 1629. Since the roller is connected to the bracket 1628, when the roller rolls within the track groove 1629, the roller can drive the bracket 1628 to move. When the roller moves to the lifting position, the bracket 1628 disengages from the conveying module 1624. When the roller moves to the receiving position, the bracket 1628 rests on the transmission module.

[0087] When the aforementioned insertion device 100 has a pre-tested product in the test area 1627 and a pre-tested product to be tested in the waiting area 1626, and a product exchange operation is required between the test area 1627 and the waiting area 1626, firstly, the roller rolls in the track groove 1629 and moves to the receiving position, and the conveying module 1624 feeds the pre-tested product from the test area 1627 to the bracket 1628, leaving the test area 1627 idle; then, the roller rolls in the track groove 1629... The roller rolls and moves within the track groove 1629 to the lifting position. After testing, the preset product is temporarily stored in the tray 1628 to avoid interference with the movement of the preset product to be tested. Next, the conveying module 1624 feeds the preset product to be tested from the waiting area 1626 to the testing area 1627 for electrical testing. Finally, the roller rolls and moves within the track groove 1629 to the receiving position, and the conveying module 1624 can feed the preset product temporarily stored in the tray 1628 to the receiving area for unloading.

[0088] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 14 As shown, both the first feeding mechanism 120 and the second feeding mechanism 130 include a tray feeding module 121, a straightening module 122, a barcode scanning module 123, and a tray unloading module 124. The tray feeding module 121 is used to feed the full tray. For example, the tray feeding module 121 can feed the first product 200 or the second product 300 carried in the full tray to the insertion mechanism 140 through lifting, conveying, or other methods. The straightening module 122 is used to straighten the full tray after feeding. For example, the straightening module 122 is a straightening cylinder. The straightening module 122 can straighten the full tray after feeding to ensure the feeding position accuracy of the first product 200 and the second product 300. The barcode scanning module 123 is used to scan the incoming material information of the first product 200 or the second product 300 carried in the full material tray. If the barcode scanning module 123 is a camera module, it scans the incoming material information of the first product 200 and the second product 300 to obtain their incoming material information. The material tray unloading module 124 is used to unload the empty material tray. After the first product 200 and the second product 300 carried in the full material tray are loaded to the insertion mechanism 140 and converted into an empty material tray, the material tray unloading module 124 can unload the empty material tray by means of lifting, conveying, etc.

[0089] The aforementioned insertion device 100 can automatically perform batch loading and unloading operations of the first product 200 and the second product 300. The straightening module 122 improves the loading position accuracy of the first product 200 and the second product 300, and the barcode scanning module 123 obtains the incoming material information of the first product 200 and the second product 300 to ensure the accuracy of subsequent insertion, testing and folding operations of the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0090] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 15 As shown, both the first transfer mechanism 150 and the second transfer mechanism 170 include a first transfer robotic arm 151, a sorting robotic arm 152, a transfer tray 153, a replenishment tray 154, and a second transfer robotic arm 155. The first transfer robotic arm 151 is mounted on the machine base 110 and is used to feed the inserted or tested pre-designed products to the transfer tray 153. The sorting robotic arm 152 is mounted on the machine base 110 and is used to select unqualified pre-designed products from the transfer tray 153 and place them on the conveyor belt, and to replenish qualified pre-designed products temporarily stored in the replenishment tray 154 to the transfer tray 153. The transfer tray 153 is rotatably mounted on the machine base 110. The second transfer robotic arm 155 is mounted on the machine base 110 and is used to feed pre-designed products to the testing mechanism 160, or to feed tested pre-designed products to the folding mechanism 180.

[0091] When the aforementioned insertion device 100 needs to feed the inserted preset product from the insertion mechanism 140 to the testing mechanism 160, the first transfer mechanism 150 performs the following transfer action: the first transfer robotic arm 151 feeds the inserted preset product to the transfer tray 153, and the sorting robotic arm 152 selects the unqualified preset products on the transfer tray 153, and the replenishment tray 154 temporarily stores qualified preset products and replenishes them to the transfer tray 153 to ensure that the transfer tray 153 is fully loaded with qualified preset products. The transfer tray 153 rotates to a position that the second transfer robotic arm 155 can pick up, and the second transfer robotic arm 155 feeds the inserted preset product to the testing mechanism 160 for electrical testing. When the tested preset products need to be fed from the testing mechanism 160 to the folding mechanism 180, the second transfer mechanism 170 performs the following transfer action: the first transfer robot arm 151 feeds the tested preset products to the transfer tray 153, and the sorting robot arm 152 selects the unqualified preset products on the transfer tray 153, and the replenishment tray 154 temporarily stores the qualified preset products and replenishes them to the transfer tray 153 to ensure that the transfer tray 153 is fully loaded with qualified preset products. The transfer tray 153 rotates to a position that the second transfer robot arm 155 can pick up, and the second transfer robot arm 155 feeds the tested preset products to the folding mechanism 180 for flipping and folding operation.

[0092] Additionally, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 16 As shown, this application also provides a method for plugging in a plug-in device 100, the method comprising the following steps:

[0093] Step S110: The first feeding mechanism 120 and the second feeding mechanism 130 respectively feed the first product 200 and the second product 300 to the insertion mechanism 140.

[0094] Step S120: The insertion mechanism 140 inserts the first product 200 into the second product 300 to complete the insertion operation of the preset product.

[0095] Step S130: The first transfer mechanism 150 feeds the pre-set product after insertion to the testing mechanism 160, and performs electrical tests on the pre-set product through the testing mechanism 160.

[0096] Step S140: The second transfer mechanism 170 feeds the tested preset product to the folding mechanism 180, and performs the folding operation of the preset product through the folding mechanism 180.

[0097] Step S150: The feeding mechanism 190 feeds the folded preset product.

[0098] In the above-described insertion method, firstly, the first feeding mechanism 120 and the second feeding mechanism 130 feed the first product 200 and the second product 300 to the insertion mechanism 140, respectively; secondly, the insertion mechanism 140 inserts the first product 200 into the second product 300 to complete the insertion operation of the preset product; next, the first transfer mechanism 150 feeds the inserted preset product to the testing mechanism 160, and the testing mechanism 160 performs electrical testing on the preset product; then, the second transfer mechanism 170 feeds the tested preset product to the folding mechanism 180, and the folding mechanism 180 performs the folding operation on the preset product; finally, the unloading mechanism 190 unloads the folded preset product. Thus, the above-mentioned insertion method can automate the loading, insertion, testing, folding and unloading operations of the first product 200 and the second product 300, and integrate the loading, insertion, testing, folding and unloading operations of the first product 200 and the second product 300, simplifying the operation steps of the first product 200 and the second product 300 and reducing the operation cost of the first product 200 and the second product 300.

[0099] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0100] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
