Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of circulating box internal support technology, specifically relating to a circuit board clamping and detection device with positioning calibration. Background Technology
[0002] Machine vision inspection technology has become the mainstream technology for circuit board quality control due to its advantages such as non-contact operation, high precision, and high degree of automation. Existing circuit board visual inspection instruments mainly consist of two parts: a clamping mechanism and a visual inspection system. The clamping mechanism is used to fix the circuit board in the predetermined inspection position. Common implementation methods include: pneumatic gripper edge clamping, which uses a cylinder to drive the gripper to clamp two opposite edges or four edges of the circuit board; vacuum adsorption clamping, which uses multiple vacuum nozzles to adsorb the surface of the circuit board; and pin array support, which, together with the edge clamping, provides bottom support. The visual inspection system acquires images of the circuit board through an industrial camera, optical lens, and dedicated light source, and analyzes and identifies various defects through image processing algorithms. Existing clamping mechanisms cannot effectively address the unevenness of circuit board surfaces (rigid clamping structures are based on the design assumption that the circuit board is an ideal plane, and cannot adapt to the inevitable warping and unevenness of the circuit board surface, resulting in severely insufficient clamping stability; the clamping force of rigid clamping structures is difficult to control precisely, easily leading to product damage and poor compatibility). Due to lamination process defects in the substrate manufacturing process, mismatch of material thermal expansion coefficients, thermal deformation during assembly and welding, and differences in component height, warping and unevenness are inevitable on the circuit board surface. Existing clamping methods are all based on the assumption that the circuit board is an ideal plane, and cannot adapt to surface undulations, or even warping, leading to clamping instability. This further makes the circuit board more prone to local deformation and vibration during the inspection process, resulting in blurred local images, increased dimensional measurement errors, and amplification of the effects of external vibrations, leading to a significant increase in missed and false detection rates.

[0013] The dynamic clamping method in the visual inspection process of circuit boards uses a circuit board clamping and inspection device with positioning calibration to provide real-time monitoring and control. The specific steps are as follows: S1: First, a stable inspection working environment is provided to the vision backplate through the horizontal rail and support plate. Then, the lead screw, driven by the servo motor, controls the vision backplate to move horizontally under the further guidance and support of the guide rail. The output motor controls the lead screw to drive the loading table to further realize the vertical movement of the vision detector. Thus, the basic environment for the two-axis linkage machining of the vision detector in the X and Y axes is constructed. During this process, the concave conveyor, driven by the slide rail, controls the carrier to move the circuit board to be inspected horizontally to the predetermined processing area until the circuit board and the scheduling plate are directly opposite each other. At this time, the electric cylinder is activated. Under the dual influence of the extension and retraction of the electric cylinder output end, the crank and the connecting plate forming multiple scissor linkage structures, the angle plate at one end controls multiple clamping cylinders to move synchronously and at equal intervals to the predetermined processing area, thereby adapting to the clamping requirements of circuit boards of different lengths. S2: Then, by adjusting the meshing motion between the gear and the rack (the synchronous motion direction between the opposing rack and the gear is opposite), the two clamping plates in the same group are controlled to move towards each other or away from each other, thereby realizing bidirectional control of the clamping sleeve as it approaches or moves away from the circuit board, accurately controlling the dynamic clamping unit to move to the predetermined processing position and establishing its axial clamping reference. S3: Finally, by synchronizing the movement between the clamping cylinder and the clamping plate, the relative contact force between the clamping pad and the end face of the circuit board is dynamically changed until the adjusting gear stops rotating. At this time, the telescopic spring is compressed to a predetermined degree. Under the control of the clamping spindle, the co-position shaft synchronously drives the single-head ball rod to generate relative movement between the lower ring disc inner wall groove, causing the lower ring disc to drive the spring lever and the wedge roller to rotate synchronously (in the initial state, the wedge roller is engaged with the arc groove, and the spring lever is not engaged with the hole on the end face of the outer or inner ring). At the same time, an equivalent amount of external gas is stably delivered to the intake valve through an external hose. After that, under the action of gas compression, the piston moves to a predetermined depth along the axis of the jacket sleeve, and at this time the piston moves at the same speed as the clamping pad. Under the control of the piston movement, the corner pin drives the limit rod to engage with the snake groove on the inner wall of the upper ring cake, so as to realize the synchronous rotation of the upper ring cake and its surface arc groove. When the clamping pad contacts the "concave and convex" surfaces of the circuit board, a difference in the relative movement depth between the clamping pad and the piston occurs. This causes a synchronous difference in the relative movement between the limiting rod and the single-headed ball rod and the snake groove. Ultimately, this leads to a unilateral relative movement between the arc groove and the wedge roller, which in turn causes the lever on one side to actuate the outer or inner ring (the specific actuation of the outer or inner ring depends on whether the clamping pad contacts the concave or convex surface of the circuit board). The outer or inner ring drives the corner ring to rotate to a predetermined degree, dynamically and in real time adjusting the compression equivalent of the telescopic spring between the corner ring and the sealing ring in the current state, and dynamically unifying the relative consistency of the clamping force between the clamping pad and the end face of the circuit board at different positions.
[0014] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This invention constructs an independent differential force feedback environment between the clamping pad and the piston by using a single-headed ball rod, a limiting rod, upper and lower ring discs (inner wall snake groove), inner and outer deflector rings, arc groove, wedge roller and spring deflector rod, so as to realize the real-time adaptive following of the undulation of the circuit board surface of a single clamping point, ignoring the existing basic premise of "based on the assumption of an ideal plane". When the clamping pad contacts the convex surface of the circuit board, the compression of the clamping pad is greater than the piston displacement, triggering the differential motion between the single-headed ball and the lower ring, which drives the spring lever to move the inner ring, increasing the current compression of the telescopic spring and enhancing the clamping force of the current clamping pad. When the clamping pad contacts the concave surface of the circuit board, the compression of the clamping pad is less than the piston displacement, triggering the differential movement between the limit rod and the upper ring, which drives the spring lever to move the outer ring, reducing the current compression of the telescopic spring and reducing the clamping force of the clamping pad. It achieves conformal clamping that applies greater force where the surface is convex and less force where the surface is concave, completely eliminating the problems of local suspension and overpressure caused by rigid clamping. It can adapt to the maximum warpage and local unevenness of the circuit board, thus avoiding problems such as circuit board movement and tilting caused by unstable clamping.
[0015] 2. This invention achieves real-time adjustment of the compression amount triggered by the differential displacement of the telescopic spring through synchronous piston drive and the compatibility of the piston and clamping pad movement speeds, thus realizing closed-loop force control at all clamping points. During the initial clamping phase, the piston and the clamping pad move synchronously to ensure that all clamping units contact the circuit board at the same time, avoiding the tilting of the circuit board caused by sequential contact. After contact, the force adjustment is automatically triggered by the displacement difference between the rubber pad and the piston, so that the clamping force of all clamping points is uniformly controlled within the preset range. The fluctuation of clamping force is contained within the predetermined fluctuation range, which helps to eliminate the risk of product damage, reduce clamping loosening and vibration events, and achieve precise dynamic balance of clamping force through pure mechanical closed-loop force control, completely eliminating overpressure damage and clamping loosening.

[0033] Simplified process of two-axis linkage scanning and image acquisition for visual inspection unit 2: X-axis horizontal motion positioning: Servo motor 25 starts, driving lead screw 26 to rotate (in specific implementation, lead screw 26 is connected to servo motor 25 through a coupling), which drives vision backplate 27 to make horizontal linear motion under the further support and guidance of guide rail 24, moving vision detector 213 to the scanning start position of circuit board. Y-axis vertical motion positioning (opposite to ground gravity): Start the output motor 28, drive the lead screw 214 to rotate, and drive the loading table 211 to move up and down along the vertical track of the vision back plate 27 (not shown in the figure, but refer to the aforementioned guide rail 24), adjust the vertical distance between the vision detector 213 and the circuit board, so that the surface of the circuit board is within the optimal depth of field range of the industrial camera. Full-board-wide line-by-line scanning acquisition: Servo motor 25 drives vision backplate 27 to move at a constant speed along the X-axis, while vision detector 213 continuously acquires circuit board images at a preset frame rate; after completing one line scan, output motor 28 drives loading stage 211 to step one scan width along the Y-axis, and vision backplate 27 moves in the opposite direction to acquire the next line image, and so on, until the image acquisition of the entire circuit board surface is completed. Special note: During the acquisition process, the industrial light source (achieved through an external PLC control system) provides uniform and stable illumination throughout, ensuring consistent image contrast and eliminating shadows and reflections; the protective cover 215 completely encloses the lens of the vision detector 213 to prevent workshop dust and oil from contaminating the optical components and ensure long-term stable imaging quality. A simplified process for automatically loading and conveying circuit boards to the testing station: The loading robot (not shown in the figure, it is an external component) places the circuit board to be tested in the groove area of the carrier platform (in specific implementation, the carrier platform is equipped with a corresponding negative pressure adsorption component to ensure the positional stability of the circuit board during the initial transportation process). The electric conveyor rail 14 is started, and the concave conveyor bin 31 is driven by the slide rail 15 to horizontally transport the circuit board to the entrance of the inspection station (i.e., the processing station of the aforementioned vision detector 213). The conveying action stops. Compensation seat 32: Ensures that the receiving platform 33 is always at the preset height, so that the upper surface of the circuit board and the clamping surface of the dynamic clamping unit 4 are at the same level, ensuring accurate alignment of subsequent clamping actions; Damping Angle Mount 12: Absorbs vibrations from equipment operation and external vibrations transmitted from the ground, controlling the overall vibration amplitude within the predetermined process range and preventing image blurring caused by vibration. It is a fundamental component for ensuring detection accuracy. Circuit board adaptive positioning and dynamic clamping process: Adjustment of clamping points at equal intervals along the length: Two symmetrically arranged electric cylinders 34 extend (or retract) synchronously, pushing the angle plate 36 to move stably to a predetermined depth with the length of the electric conveyor rail 14 as the reference direction under the support and guidance of the scheduling plate 35; the angle plate 36 achieves synchronous and equal-interval extension and retraction through the scissor linkage structure constructed by the crank 315 and the connecting plate 316 (that is, multiple dynamic clamping units 4 are moved at equal intervals to the predetermined processing point by a single drive source), driving multiple sets of clamping plates 1 to move synchronously to the preset position, automatically matching the length of the circuit board to be tested, and realizing a distributed multi-point clamping layout across the entire length range. Width direction opposing synchronous clamping: The adjusting gear 311 starts to rotate, driving two sets of opposing adjusting racks 314 to move synchronously in opposite directions along the guide bar 312, which in turn drives the two clamping plates 1 in the same group to move towards each other, so that the dynamic clamping unit 4 installed on the clamping plate 1 gradually (towards each other) approaches the preset clamping point at the edge of the circuit board. Adaptive conformal clamping and locking: When the clamping pad 46 of the dynamic clamping unit 4 contacts the circuit board surface, the pure mechanical differential force feedback mechanism is automatically activated. According to the warping and unevenness of the circuit board surface, the clamping force of each clamping point is adjusted in real time to ensure that the clamping force of all clamping points is uniform and consistent, while completely conforming to the undulations of the circuit board surface. After clamping is completed, the adjusting gear 311 and the adjusting rack 314 self-lock, all moving parts are locked, and the circuit board is dynamically clamped and supported by the dynamic clamping unit 4, waiting for testing.

A piston 423 is slidably snapped onto the inner wall of the end of the clamping cylinder 41 near the air inlet valve 421 through a sealing pad. An angle post 424 is snapped onto the axis of the end of the piston 423 away from the air inlet valve 421.

Reference Figure 7 and Figure 12 It can be seen that the end face of the sealing plate 417 near the intake valve 421 is symmetrically provided with arc grooves 431, and the arc grooves 431 are one-third of the circumference.

The outer ring 4391 and the inner ring 4392 are both provided with a half-groove on the side away from the clamping pad 46, and the two half-grooves are staggered. In addition, the outer wall of the outer ring 4391 and the inner ring 4392 at the end away from the clamping pad 46 is provided with a hole that matches the spring lever 439.
[0035] The differential preconditions between piston 423 and clamping pad 46 are set as follows: In specific implementation, when adjusting gear 311 and adjusting rack 314 are engaged to a predetermined degree, at this time (in the preset state), clamping pad 46 is tangent to the surface of the circuit board (about to contact; regardless of whether the current circuit board surface is "uneven"), and gas of predetermined equivalent, pressure and flow rate is continuously and stably pumped into the inlet valve 421 (one-way valve) through an external gas pumping system (solenoid valve). In other words, during actual implementation, the piston 423 moves at the same speed as the adjusting rack 314 or the clamping pad 46; Furthermore, the relative movement process between the clamping pad 46 and the "convex surface" of the circuit board (the principle of the concave surface is the opposite) under actual working conditions is illustrated by example; Under the synchronous action of the clamping plate 1, the clamping pad 46 moves along its axis toward the circuit board to a predetermined depth (if the actual axial displacement of the clamping pad 46 is consistent with the predetermined displacement, it means that the contact surface between the circuit board and the clamping pad 46 is theoretically relatively horizontal at this time, and during this process, the relative movement of the limiting rod 426 and the inner wall serpentine groove 416 of the upper ring 415, whether in depth or relative action period, is consistent with the relative movement depth and period between the single-headed ball rod 413 and the inner wall serpentine groove 416 of the lower ring 414; therefore, the relative rotation and speed of the sealing plates 417 on both sides are consistent, and the arc groove 431, wedge roller 435 and spring lever 439 are in the initial position—there is no speed difference between the two causing the aforementioned components to misalign and generate a series of chain movements). If the clamping pad 46 contacts the "convex surface" of the circuit board, the relative movement depth of the clamping pad 46 relative to the adjusting rack 314 and piston 423 is "more than the height of the convex surface of the circuit board (relative to the theoretical horizontal plane of the circuit board)". At this time, under the influence of the synchronous movement depth of the pad, the clamping spindle 45 controls the corresponding spindle 411 to drive the shaft sleeve 412 to make an actual axial depth displacement (the actual displacement is greater than the preset displacement, which will be described as "displacement difference" in the following description). The displacement difference causes the single-headed ball stick 413 to have an additional relative interaction relationship with the limit rod 426 and the snake groove 416 (in actual operation, this can be achieved by reasonable adjustment). The design layout of the serpentine groove 416 spacing, with the extended range, transforms the axial displacement difference of the clamping pad 46 into a significant rotational amount of the upper ring 415 or the lower ring 414, improving the accuracy and sensing bandwidth of dynamic clamping. At the same time, during actual processing, the consistency of the groove width, groove spacing, and stroke of the serpentine groove 416 on the inner wall of the upper ring 415 and the lower ring 414 is strictly controlled to ensure the relative motion consistency of the two sealing plates 417, thereby improving the actual transformation explicit relationship under differential speed conditions. The difference in relative rotational amount between the lower ring 414 and the upper ring 415 due to the aforementioned "displacement difference" is also improved. The arc groove 431 (corresponding to the current circuit board convex surface and the clamping pad 46 exceeding the preset relative depth relationship) and the current rotation direction (in actual operation, when the clamping pad 46 contacts the concave and convex surfaces of the circuit board, the lower ring 414 rotates in the opposite direction depending on the positive or negative displacement difference) instantly cuts into the wedge roller 435 corresponding to the current area (the arc groove 431 on the other side will not press the wedge roller 435 in the current area under the current rotation direction (the arc groove 431 has a certain circumferential space capacity)). After being pressed, the wedge roller 435 compresses the return spring 436 under the combined support of the outer ring 433 and the inner ring 434. Subsequently, the oil inside the right-angle groove 432 squeezes the spring lever 439, causing it to insert into a pre-set hole in the main ring 437. (This is a simplified description; in practice, when the convex surface of the circuit board contacts the clamping pad 46, the spring lever 439 will be inserted into a pre-set hole on one side of the main ring 437. Furthermore, in specific implementation, the half-groove on one side of the secondary ring 438 of the main ring 437 is...) To ensure that the insertion and rotation of the spring lever 439 at the same position are not interfered with by the position of the main position ring 437 or the secondary position ring 438 on the same side, the main position ring 437 synchronously drives the corner ring 44 to rotate at a predetermined angle (in accordance with the displacement difference under the current state). Under the combined action of the screw ring 43 and the clamping spindle 45, the corner ring 44 moves along the axis of the clamping sleeve, changing the current compression of the telescopic spring 47, so as to achieve a relatively balanced clamping force under different actual contact conditions at different points, stabilize the clamping effect, and reduce the risk of circuit board damage (at the same time, it can be adapted to continuous dynamic stable clamping under multiple tasks).
