[0054] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, a ring light source E10 is arranged on the translation slide E4 and is coaxially arranged with the upper visual camera E8; strip light sources E9 are fixed on both sides of the ring light source E10; the strip light source E9 and the ring light source E10 are both used to provide fill light for the shooting of the upper visual camera E8.

[0055] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the silo assembly A includes a pushing tray assembly A1 that can push the tray B to slide; a loading tray bin A4 and a return tray bin A5 are provided on the frame C; the loading tray bin A4 and the return tray bin A5 are arranged in sequence along the sliding direction of the pushing tray assembly A1; the loading tray bin A4 and the return tray bin A5 are both provided with a lifting device A6 for driving the tray B to perform lifting and lowering movements; the tops of the loading tray bin A4 and the return tray bin A5 are both provided with a dividing tray assembly;

[0056] The loading tray bin A4 and the return tray bin A5 are cavity structures inside the frame C;

[0057] The stacked trays are placed in a drawer structure with a slide rail; a through slot for the lifting part of the lifting device A6 is provided on the drawer; the lifting device A6 is essentially the same as the existing lifting device, so it is not described in detail; the lifting device A6 on the upper tray bin A4 drives the tray to rise to the position directly opposite the tray assembly, and after the tray assembly fixes the upper tray bin A4 and the top tray B, the lifting device A6 drives the remaining trays B in the upper tray bin A4 to descend and separate from the tray B on the tray assembly; the tray pushing assembly A1 pushes the tray B on the tray assembly back to the tray assembly on the tray bin A5 for clamping and fixing. In this state, this position is the loading station; the loading robot takes out the chips from the tray B of the return tray bin A5 and puts them on the inspection fixture for inspection in sequence; the two inspected trays are placed on the external good product tray, and the defective ones are placed on the defective product tray; the empty tray B on the return tray bin A5 is raised by the lifting device A6 on the return tray bin A5 and then stacked with the empty tray B on the lifting device A6; finally, the tray separation assembly on the return tray bin A5 releases the empty tray B; the empty tray B is lowered along with the lifting device A6 on the return tray bin A5 and is placed at a position that does not hinder the next tray B from entering the return tray bin A5 from the loading tray bin A4;

[0058] The material dividing mechanism can separate the material trays, position them on the loading station and automatically unload the empty material trays from the loading station after multiple material trays B are put in at one time, thereby reducing the labor intensity of loading, improving the continuity of loading and improving the efficiency of loading.

[0059] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the tray assembly is composed of two symmetrically arranged support and clamping modules; the support and clamping module is composed of a tray telescopic support member A2 and a clamping member A3 arranged in sequence from bottom to top along the height direction;

[0060] The tray telescopic support A2 includes a support fixing seat A201 fixed on the frame C, a support guide shaft A202 fixed on the support fixing seat A201, and a tray support plate A204 slidably connected to the support guide shaft A202; a support spring A203 is connected between the tray support plate A204 and the support fixing seat A201; a wedge surface A2041 is provided between the outer surface and the bottom surface of the tray support plate A204;

[0061] When the tray B of the upper tray bin A4 is raised by the lifting device A6, the top tray B first contacts the wedge surface A2041 and pushes the wedge surface A2041, so that the two tray support plates A204 overcome the elastic force of the spring and slide outward; when the top tray B is pressed against the side surface of the tray support plate A204, the compression amount of the tray support plate A204 is the maximum; after the top tray B completely passes through the tray support plate A204, it passes through the clamping piece A3 The tray B above the tray support plate A204 is clamped and fixed. In this state, the second tray B from top to bottom is pressed by the two tray support plates A204, and the remaining trays B of the upper tray bin A4 are lowered through the lifting device A6. When the tray B on the lifting device A6 is lowered to the position misaligned with the tray support plate A204, the support spring A203 resets the tray support plate A204, the clamp A3 releases the tray B, and the tray support plate A204 supports the tray B to complete the tray separation;

[0062] The stacking process on the return tray bin A5 is as follows: the clamping members A3 on both sides clamp and fix the tray B, the lifting device A6 of the return tray bin A5 rises and pushes the tray support plate A204 outward through the wedge surface A2041, and the top tray B or the lifting platform of the lifting device A6 is stacked with the tray B on the clamping member A3; after the clamping member A3 releases the tray B, the lifting device A6 drives the top stacked tray B to descend; similarly, during the descent of the tray B, the tray support plate A204 is also propped open by the tray B, until the tray B is completely misaligned with the tray support plate A204, and then the tray support plate A204 is completely reset;

[0063] The gap between the tray support plate A204 of the return tray bin A5 and the tray support plate A204 of the upper tray bin A4 is very small, so when the tray B is pushed by the push tray assembly A1, it can slide and transfer through the slideway formed by the tray support plate A204; a rounded surface A2042 is provided between the wedge surface A2041 and the tray support plate A204; since the gap between the trays B is very small, and the tray B is in contact with the rounded surface A2042; therefore, the tray support plate A204 cannot be inserted between the trays B; the clamping member A3 includes a material dividing cylinder A fixed on the frame C. 301, a material distribution fixing plate A302 fixed on the piston rod end of the material distribution cylinder A301 and a material distribution protrusion A303 fixed on the material distribution fixing plate A302; the left and right sides of the material tray B are provided with a material tray positioning groove B1 used in conjunction with the material distribution protrusion A303; the material distribution cylinder A301 can drive the material distribution protrusion A303 on the material distribution fixing plate A302 to perform telescopic movement; when the material distribution protrusion A303 is inserted into the material tray positioning groove B1, the material tray B is fixed on the frame C through the material distribution protrusions A303 on both sides, and the material tray B will not perform lifting and lowering movement with the lifting device A6. When the manipulator takes the material, the positioning of the material distribution protrusion A303 can fix the position of the material tray B; the number of the material distribution protrusion A303 can be multiple.

[0064] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, the pushing plate assembly A1 includes a pushing plate fixing seat A104 fixed on the frame C, a through-screw motor A102 fixed on the pushing plate fixing seat A104, and a pushing plate A103 slidably connected to the pushing plate fixing seat A104; the screw A101 of the through-screw motor A102 is fixed on the pushing plate fixing seat A103; the through-screw motor A102 has no essential difference from the prior art, so it is not described in detail; the through-screw motor A102 can drive the screw A101 to perform telescopic movement relative to the body of the through-screw motor A102, thereby driving the pushing plate A103 to move, and pushing the material plate B through the pushing plate A103, so that the material plate B slides from the loading plate bin A4 to the return plate bin A5.

[0065] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, so all equivalent changes or modifications made according to the structure, features and principles described in the scope of the present utility model patent application are included in the scope of the present utility model patent application.
