Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of mobile phone testing technology, and particularly relates to a flip-type mobile device and testing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] In the manufacturing process of electronic products, especially consumer electronics such as mobile phones, multiple performance tests are typically required, such as display performance testing, audio testing, and touch functionality testing, to ensure product quality. These testing processes often need to be performed sequentially at different workstations, thus necessitating the transfer of the target workpiece, such as the mobile phone, between various processes.

[0003] Currently, in some testing scenarios, the orientation requirements for workpieces differ between consecutive processes; for example, the workpiece orientation may be opposite in the preceding and following processes. Traditional workpiece transfer methods typically employ a single picking mechanism (such as a robotic arm) for linear transport, or a single robotic arm with a flipping function for picking and placing. However, when workpiece orientation adjustment is required, existing transfer devices are often structurally complex and difficult to control. Manual flipping and transfer are not only inefficient but also prone to contaminating or damaging the product, failing to meet the demands of large-scale automated production. Furthermore, some existing automated flipping devices typically use a single rotary drive to move a single picking head for picking, flipping, and placing materials. This single-station flipping method has a bottleneck in cycle time, making it difficult to achieve efficient continuous operation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a flipping and moving device and a testing equipment, which aims to solve the problem of how to improve the stability and reliability of flipping and material transfer actions.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: In a first aspect, a flipping and moving device is provided for moving a target workpiece from a first station to a second station, wherein the first station and the second station are arranged at a distance along a first direction. The flipping and moving device includes a first rotating mechanism and a second rotating mechanism arranged at a distance from the first rotating mechanism, the first rotating mechanism and the second rotating mechanism corresponding to the first station and the second station, respectively. The first rotating mechanism includes a first driving member and a first picking structure connected to the driving end of the first driving member. The second rotating mechanism includes a second driving member and a second picking structure connected to the driving end of the second driving member. The first driving member and the second driving member are respectively used to drive the first picking structure and the second picking structure to rotate. Both the first picking structure and the second picking structure are used to pick up or release the target workpiece. Specifically, the first picking structure picks up the target workpiece at the first station and drives the target workpiece to rotate by a first preset angle, so that the target workpiece faces the second rotating mechanism and releases the target workpiece onto the second picking structure. The second picking structure drives the target workpiece to rotate by a second preset angle and releases the target workpiece onto the second station. The target workpiece located at the second station has a different orientation than the target workpiece located at the first station.

[0006] In some embodiments, the first rotating mechanism further includes a first linear moving structure connected between the first driving member and the first picking structure. The first linear moving structure includes a first connecting plate connected to the first driving member and a first sliding driver connected to the side of the first connecting plate opposite to the first driving member. The first sliding driver is used to drive the first picking structure to slide in a straight line, and the sliding direction of the first picking structure is the same as the rotation axis direction of the first picking structure.

[0007] In some embodiments, the first picking structure includes a first mounting bracket connected to the first sliding driver, a first clamping driver connected to the first mounting bracket, and a first gripper connected to the first clamping driver. Two first grippers are arranged at intervals, and the first clamping driver is used to drive the two first grippers to move towards each other or away from each other.

[0008] In some embodiments, the second rotating mechanism further includes a second linear moving structure connected between the second driving member and the second picking structure. The second linear moving structure includes a second connecting plate connected to the second driving member and a second sliding driver connected to the side of the second connecting plate opposite to the second driving member. The second sliding driver is used to drive the second picking structure to slide in a straight line, and the sliding direction of the second picking structure is the same as the rotation axis direction of the second picking structure.

[0009] In some embodiments, the second picking structure includes a second mounting bracket connected to the second sliding driver, a second clamping driver connected to the second mounting bracket, and a second gripper connected to the second clamping driver. Two second grippers are arranged at intervals, and the second clamping driver is used to drive the two second grippers to move towards each other or away from each other.

[0010] In some embodiments, the first rotating mechanism and the first rotating mechanism are arranged at intervals along the first direction.

[0011] In some embodiments, the target workpiece has a marking surface. When the target workpiece is located at the first station, the marking surface is oriented in a second direction; when the target workpiece is located at the second station, the marking surface is oriented in a third direction. The second direction and the third direction are opposite directions, and both the second direction and the third direction are perpendicular to the first direction.

[0012] In some embodiments, the first preset angle and the second preset angle may be the same or different in size, and the direction in which the first picking structure drives the target workpiece to rotate is the same as the direction in which the second picking structure drives the target workpiece to rotate.

[0013] In some embodiments, both the first preset angle and the second preset angle are 90°.

[0014] Secondly, a testing device is provided, which includes the aforementioned flipping and moving device.

[0015] The flipping and moving device provided in this application sets up a first rotating mechanism and a second rotating mechanism. The first picking structure picks up the target workpiece at the first station and flips it before directly handing it over to the second picking structure. The second picking structure then performs a second flip and places the workpiece at the second station. Thus, by simply superimposing two preset angles, the conversion of any orientation between the first station and the second station can be realized. The complex spatial posture transformation is decomposed into two simple planar rotational movements, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the flipping and material transfer actions.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This application provides a flipping and moving device for moving a target workpiece 200 from a first station 300 to a second station 400. The first station 300 and the second station 400 are arranged at intervals along a first direction a. The flipping and moving device includes a first rotating mechanism 10 and a second rotating mechanism 20 arranged at intervals from the first rotating mechanism 10. The first rotating mechanism 10 and the second rotating mechanism 20 correspond to the first station 300 and the second station 400, respectively. The first rotating mechanism 10 includes a first driving member 11 and a first picking structure 12 connected to the driving end of the first driving member 11. The second rotating mechanism 20 includes a second driving member 21 and a second picking structure 22 connected to the driving end of the second driving member 21. The first driving member 11 and the second driving member 21 are respectively used to drive the first picking structure 12 and the second picking structure 22 to rotate. The first picking structure 12 and the second picking structure 22 are both used to pick up or release the target workpiece 200. The first picking structure 12 picks up the target workpiece 200 at the first station 300 and drives the target workpiece 200 to rotate by a first preset angle so that the target workpiece 200 faces the second rotating mechanism 20 and releases the target workpiece 200 to the second picking structure 22; the second picking structure 22 drives the target workpiece 200 to rotate by a second preset angle and releases the target workpiece 200 to the second station 400; the target workpiece 200 located at the second station 400 faces a different direction than the target workpiece 200 located at the first station 300.

[0024] The flipping and moving device of this application embodiment can be used in a mobile phone production testing line to transfer mobile phones between various processes. The target workpiece 200 is the mobile phone to be tested. Specifically, the first station 300 and the second station 400 are stations of two adjacent processes, for example, the first station 300 is a transmission belt, and the second station 400 is another transmission belt. The first rotating mechanism 10 and the second rotating mechanism 20 correspond to the first station 300 and the second station 400, respectively. That is, the first rotating mechanism 10 is located near the first station 300 and is used to process the target workpiece 200 located at the first station 300; the second rotating mechanism 20 is located near the second station 400 and is used to process the target workpiece 200 located at the second station 400. The distance between the first rotating mechanism 10 and the second rotating mechanism 20 can be set according to actual needs, and is usually matched with the distance between the first station 300 and the second station 400.

[0025] In this embodiment of the application, after the target workpiece 200 is rotated twice, the target workpiece 200 located at the second station 400 has a different orientation than the target workpiece 200 located at the first station 300. For example, the target workpiece 200 located at the second station 400 and the target workpiece 200 located at the first station 300 can have opposite orientations, that is, the placement direction of the target workpiece 200 at the second station 400 is 180° different from the placement direction at the first station 300. Taking a mobile phone as an example, the screen of the mobile phone faces upward when it is at the first station 300, and after being rotated, the screen of the mobile phone faces downward when it is at the second station 400.

[0026] In addition, in this embodiment, the first preset angle refers to the angle by which the first picking structure 12 rotates after picking up the target workpiece 200, driven by the first driving member 11. The specific value of this angle is determined based on factors such as the initial orientation of the target workpiece 200 at the first station 300 and the relative positional relationship between the first rotating mechanism 10 and the second rotating mechanism 20. The purpose of setting the first preset angle is to ensure that the target workpiece 200 faces the second rotating mechanism 20 after rotation, thereby facilitating face-to-face handover between the two picking structures. The second preset angle refers to the angle by which the second picking structure 22 rotates after receiving the target workpiece 200, driven by the second driving member 21. The specific value of this angle is determined based on factors such as the current orientation of the target workpiece 200 at handover and the feeding direction requirements for the target workpiece 200 at the second station 400. The purpose of setting the second preset angle is to ensure that the target workpiece 200 is released to the second station 400 in the required orientation after rotation, thereby satisfying the placement direction requirements of the second station 400 for the target workpiece 200.

[0027] The specific values ​​of the first and second preset angles can be flexibly set according to the actual application scenario. Since the first rotating mechanism 10 and the second rotating mechanism 20 correspond to the first station 300 and the second station 400 respectively, and the two stations are arranged at intervals along the first direction a, the first picking structure 12 and the second picking structure 22 have a definite relative positional relationship in space. Therefore, based on the specific requirements of the first station 300 and the second station 400 for the orientation of the target workpiece 200, the specific values ​​of the first and second preset angles can be determined through simple geometric calculations.

[0028] The flipping and moving device provided in this application is equipped with a first rotating mechanism 10 and a second rotating mechanism 20. The first picking structure 12 picks up the target workpiece 200 at the first station 300 and flips it before directly handing it over to the second picking structure 22. The second picking structure 22 then performs a second flip and places the workpiece at the second station 400. Thus, by simply superimposing two preset angles, the conversion of any orientation between the first station 300 and the second station 400 can be realized. The complex spatial posture transformation is decomposed into two simple planar rotational movements, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the flipping and material transfer actions.

[0029] In addition, after the first pickup structure 12 releases the target workpiece 200 to the second pickup structure 22, it can immediately return to its original position to pick up the next target workpiece 200 without waiting for the second pickup structure 22 to complete the subsequent secondary rotation and feeding. That is, the return and feeding action of the first pickup structure 12 and the rotation and feeding action of the second pickup structure 22 can be carried out synchronously, thereby greatly shortening the transfer time of each target workpiece 200 and significantly improving production efficiency.

[0030] In this embodiment, the first driving member 11 and the second driving member 21 can be various power elements capable of outputting rotational motion. For example, the first driving member 11 and the second driving member 21 can be rotary cylinders, which achieve rotation at a predetermined angle through pneumatic drive. The first driving member 11 and the second driving member 21 can also be servo motors, which achieve precise angle rotation through electrical signal control.

[0031] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first rotating mechanism 10 also includes a first linear movement structure 13 connected between the first driving member 11 and the first pickup structure 12. The first linear movement structure 13 includes a first connecting plate 131 connected to the first driving member 11 and a first sliding driver 132 connected to the first connecting plate 131 on the side opposite to the first driving member 11. The first sliding driver 132 is used to drive the first pickup structure 12 to slide in a straight line, and the sliding direction of the first pickup structure 12 is the same as the direction of the rotation axis of the first pickup structure 12.

[0032] Understandably, when the first driving component 11 is activated, the first connecting plate 131, along with all its components, rotates together. The first sliding actuator 132 is fixedly mounted on the first connecting plate 131, and its output end is connected to the first pickup structure 12. The first sliding actuator 132 can be a linear cylinder, an electric push rod, a linear module, or a linear motor, or other components capable of outputting linear motion. Taking a linear cylinder as an example, the cylinder body of the linear cylinder is fixed on the first connecting plate 131, and the extended end of the piston rod is connected to the first pickup structure 12. By controlling the air intake and exhaust of the linear cylinder, the first pickup structure 12 can be driven to slide back and forth along the extension and retraction direction of the piston rod.

[0033] Since the first sliding actuator 132 is connected to the side of the first connecting plate 131 opposite to the first driving member 11, and the sliding direction of the first pickup structure 12 is the same as the direction of its rotation axis, when the first driving member 11 drives the first connecting plate 131 to rotate, the first sliding actuator 132 and the first pickup structure 12 rotate synchronously with the first connecting plate 131, and the first pickup structure 12 can always extend and retract linearly along the rotation axis during rotation. In other words, the first pickup structure 12 can both rotate around the rotation axis under the drive of the first driving member 11 and move up and down along the rotation axis under the drive of the first sliding actuator 132. These two movements are independent of each other, do not interfere with each other, and can be performed simultaneously or sequentially.

[0034] Understandably, in practical applications, the first pickup structure 12 needs to descend to contact the surface of the target workpiece 200 in order to perform pickup. By setting the first sliding driver 132, the lifting and lowering movement of the first pickup structure 12 along the rotation axis can be realized. Specifically, when it is necessary to pick up the target workpiece 200 located at the first station 300, the first sliding driver 132 drives the first pickup structure 12 to extend along the rotation axis, so that the first pickup structure 12 approaches and contacts the surface of the target workpiece 200, and then picks up the target workpiece 200. After the pickup is completed, the first sliding driver 132 drives the first pickup structure 12 to retract along the rotation axis, raising the target workpiece 200 to a safe height to avoid the mobile phone colliding with surrounding equipment or obstacles during subsequent rotation. Subsequently, the first driving member 11 drives the first connecting plate 131 and the first pickup structure 12 to rotate by a first preset angle, transferring the target workpiece 200 to an orientation facing the second rotating mechanism 20. After reaching the handover position, the first sliding driver 132 can drive the first picking structure 12 to extend again, delivering the target workpiece 200 to a position close to the second picking structure 22, so that the second picking structure 22 can receive it. After the second picking structure 22 successfully picks up the target workpiece 200, the first picking structure 12 releases the target workpiece 200 and retracts.

[0035] By driving the first picking structure 12 to slide back and forth along the rotation axis by the first sliding actuator 132, it can be ensured that the first picking structure 12 can accurately reach the position of the target workpiece 200 when picking up and releasing, thereby improving the reliability and positioning accuracy of picking up and releasing.

[0036] In some embodiments, the first pickup structure 12 includes a first mounting bracket 121 connected to the first sliding driver 132, a first clamping driver 122 connected to the first mounting bracket 121, and a first gripper 123 connected to the first clamping driver 122. Two first grippers 123 are arranged at intervals, and the first clamping driver 122 is used to drive the two first grippers 123 to move towards each other or away from each other.

[0037] The first mounting bracket 121 serves as the mounting base for the first clamping driver 122. One end of the bracket is fixedly connected to the output end of the first sliding driver 132, and the other end is fixedly connected to the first clamping driver 122. The first mounting bracket 121 can be a plate-like structure or a frame structure, and can be made of lightweight, high-strength materials such as aluminum alloy to reduce the moment of inertia.

[0038] The first clamping actuator 122 can be a pneumatic gripper, an electric gripper, or a hydraulic gripper, capable of outputting clamping force. The first clamping actuator 122 typically incorporates a piston and slider mechanism. When compressed air enters the cylinder, the piston pushes the slider to move, which in turn drives the two first grippers 123 to move towards or away from each other, thereby clamping or releasing the target workpiece 200. Flexible pads, such as silicone or rubber pads, can be provided on the inner sides of the two first grippers 123 to prevent scratching the surface of the target workpiece 200 during clamping. Furthermore, the shape of the two first grippers 123 can be adapted to the contour of the target workpiece 200; for example, it can be designed as an arc-shaped structure matching the curvature of the side of the target workpiece 200 to increase the clamping contact area and improve clamping stability.

[0039] This embodiment employs a gripper-type picking structure to hold the target workpiece 200. The gripping force can be precisely controlled by adjusting the air pressure or current of the first gripping driver 122, making the holding force of the first gripper 123 more stable and reliable. This prevents loosening under high-speed rotation or vibration environments, thereby improving the stability and reliability of material transfer. Of course, in other possible implementations, the first picking structure 12 can also pick up the target workpiece 200 by adsorption. This embodiment does not limit the picking method of the first picking structure 12 to a single method.

[0040] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the second rotating mechanism 20 also includes a second linear movement structure 23 connected between the second driving member 21 and the second picking structure 22. The second linear movement structure 23 includes a second connecting plate 231 connected to the second driving member 21 and a second sliding driver 232 connected to the side of the second connecting plate 231 away from the second driving member 21. The second sliding driver 232 is used to drive the second picking structure 22 to slide in a straight line, and the sliding direction of the second picking structure 22 is the same as the direction of the rotation axis of the second picking structure 22.

[0041] The second linear movement structure 23 has the same structure and functional principle as the first linear movement structure 13 mentioned above. It is also used to realize the movement of the second picking structure 22 along the rotation axis so as to receive the target workpiece 200 from the first picking structure 12 at the junction position, and to accurately place the target workpiece 200 at the target position at the second station 400. This will not be described in detail here.

[0042] In some embodiments, the second pickup structure 22 includes a second mounting bracket 221 connected to the second sliding driver 232, a second clamping driver 222 connected to the second mounting bracket 221, and second grippers 223 connected to the second clamping driver 222. Two second grippers 223 are arranged at intervals, and the second clamping driver 222 is used to drive the two second grippers 223 to move towards each other or away from each other. The gripper structure of the second pickup structure 22 is based on the same principle as the gripper structure of the first pickup structure 12 described above. It also picks up and releases the target workpiece 200 through clamping, and has advantages such as stable and reliable clamping force, which will not be described in detail here.

[0043] In some embodiments, the first rotating mechanism 10 and the second rotating mechanism 20 are arranged at intervals along a first direction a. Understandably, the first direction a is the direction from the first workstation 300 to the second workstation 400, and the arrangement direction of the two rotating mechanisms is consistent with the arrangement direction of the two workstations. The first rotating mechanism 10 is positioned close to the first workstation 300, and the second rotating mechanism 20 is positioned close to the second workstation 400, with the interval between them matching the distance between the first workstation 300 and the second workstation 400. Since the two rotating mechanisms are arranged along the same direction, the first picking structure 12 faces the second rotating mechanism 20 after rotating a first preset angle, and the second picking structure 22 faces the second workstation 400 after rotating a second preset angle. The entire motion path is completed within the same plane, and the motion trajectory is simple and clear.

[0044] When the first driving member 11 drives the first picking structure 12 to rotate by a first preset angle, the target workpiece 200 on the first picking structure 12 is exactly facing the direction of the second rotating mechanism 20. When the second driving member 21 drives the second picking structure 22 to rotate to the receiving position, the second picking structure 22 and the first picking structure 12 are arranged opposite to each other, forming the shortest handover path. Therefore, the target workpiece 200 only needs to be transferred over a short distance between the first picking structure 12 and the second picking structure 22 during handover, making the handover process simple and reliable. Specifically, the first rotating mechanism 10 and the second rotating mechanism 20 are respectively arranged above the first station 300 and the second station 400.

[0045] In some embodiments, the target workpiece 200 has a marking surface. When the target workpiece 200 is located at the first station 300, the marking surface is oriented in the second direction b; when the target workpiece 200 is located at the second station 400, the marking surface is oriented in the third direction c. The second direction b and the third direction c are opposite directions, and both the second direction b and the third direction c are perpendicular to the first direction a.

[0046] The target workpiece 200 has a marking surface that can be used to determine the placement orientation of the target workpiece 200. Taking a mobile phone as an example, the screen of the phone is a natural marking surface, which is significantly different in appearance from the back. Operators or automated equipment can determine the current orientation of the phone by recognizing this surface. Of course, in other embodiments, the marking surface can also be the back of the phone, the charging port end face, the earpiece end face, or any other feature surface with directional indication, as long as the surface can be recognized and used to determine the orientation of the workpiece.

[0047] When the target workpiece 200 is located at the first station 300, the orientation of the marking surface is the second direction b; when the target workpiece 200 is transferred to the second station 400, the orientation of the marking surface is the third direction c. The second direction b and the third direction c are opposite directions, and both are perpendicular to the first direction a. Taking a mobile phone testing line as an example, assuming the first direction a is horizontal, that is, the first station 300 and the second station 400 are arranged horizontally. At the first station 300, the marking surface of the mobile phone faces down. After two rotations by the first rotating mechanism 10 and the second rotating mechanism 20, when the mobile phone is placed at the second station 400, the screen faces up. Facing up and facing down are opposite directions, and both are perpendicular to the left and right directions. Thus, the mobile phone achieves a 180-degree rotation between the two stations, satisfying different requirements for the orientation of the mobile phone.

[0048] Since both the second direction b and the third direction c are perpendicular to the first direction a, the orientation change of the marking surface occurs entirely within a plane perpendicular to the transfer direction. This makes the orientation adjustment of the target workpiece 200 independent of and does not interfere with the transfer movement along the first direction a. The first picking structure 12 and the second picking structure 22 only need to rotate around their respective rotation axes in a plane perpendicular to the first direction a to complete the orientation adjustment of the marking surface. The action is simple and improves the efficiency of material transfer and flipping.

[0049] In some embodiments, the first preset angle and the second preset angle may be the same or different, and the direction in which the first pickup structure 12 drives the target workpiece 200 to rotate is the same as the direction in which the second pickup structure 22 drives the target workpiece 200 to rotate. That is, the first driving member 11 drives the first pickup structure 12 to rotate by a certain angle value in a certain direction, and the second driving member 21 drives the second pickup structure 22 to rotate by another angle value in the same direction. The two angle values ​​can be set according to actual needs, as long as the target workpiece 200 can achieve a 180-degree rotation between the two stations. Optionally, the first driving member 11 drives the first pickup structure 12 to rotate in a clockwise direction, and the second driving member 21 drives the second pickup structure 22 to rotate in a clockwise direction.

[0050] Taking the first rotating mechanism 10 and the second rotating mechanism 20 using the same rotation angle as an example, both the first preset angle and the second preset angle are 90°. After the first picking structure 12 picks up the mobile phone at the first station 300, the first driving member 11 drives the first picking structure 12 to rotate 90 degrees clockwise, so that the target workpiece 200 faces the direction of the second rotating mechanism 20. After the second picking structure 22 receives the target workpiece 200, the second driving member 21 drives the second picking structure 22 to rotate 90 degrees clockwise, and then releases the target workpiece 200 at the second station 400. At this time, the target workpiece 200 has rotated a total of 180 degrees relative to the initial state.

[0051] The first rotating mechanism 10 and the second rotating mechanism 20 adopt the same rotation angle, which facilitates standardized design and parameter setting. The first driving component 11 and the second driving component 21 can use rotary cylinders or servo motors of the same specifications. Since both have the same stroke angle, it helps to reduce the manufacturing and maintenance costs of the equipment. Furthermore, when the two rotating mechanisms have the same rotation angle and direction, the first pickup structure 12 and the second pickup structure 22 have symmetrical motion trajectories, which helps to simplify the control program. Only the same control parameters and the same motion direction need to be set for the two driving components, reducing the difficulty of programming and debugging.

[0052] In other possible implementations, the first preset angle and the second preset angle are different in size. For example, the first picking structure 12 first rotates a small angle to make the workpiece face the second rotating mechanism 20 and complete the handover. The second picking structure 22 then rotates a larger angle to adjust the workpiece to the final orientation and release it. For example, the first preset angle is 30° and the second preset angle is 150°.

[0053] Of course, it is also possible that the first picking structure 12 rotates a larger angle before handing over the work, and the second rotating mechanism 20 rotates a smaller angle to release the work, for example, the first preset angle is 150° and the second preset angle is 30°.

[0054] This application also proposes a testing device, which includes a flipping and moving device. The specific structure of the flipping and moving device is as described in the above embodiments. Since this testing device adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it also has all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0055] In summary, the flipping and moving device provided in this application, by setting a first rotating mechanism 10 and a second rotating mechanism 20, allows the first picking structure 12 to pick up the target workpiece 200 at the first station 300, flip it, and then directly hand it over to the second picking structure 22. The second picking structure 22 then performs a second flip and places the workpiece at the second station 400. Thus, by simply superimposing two preset angles, the conversion of any orientation between the first station 300 and the second station 400 can be realized, decomposing the complex spatial posture transformation into two simple planar rotational movements, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the flipping and material transfer actions.

[0056] The above are merely optional embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the scope of the claims of this application.
