Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of workpiece assembly, and in particular to an assembly device. Background Art
[0002] Some workpieces need to be mounted with materials during the production process, but the place where the materials are to be mounted is located on the side wall of the workpiece. Due to the limitations of the workpiece's own structure, the materials need to be mounted sideways on the workpiece. In related technologies, manual mounting is performed, and it is impossible to accurately locate the position of the material relative to the place where the materials are to be mounted on the workpiece, resulting in low mounting yield, reliability and efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of this, the present application provides an assembly device that can improve the accuracy of the mounting position of a material relative to a workpiece.
[0004] One embodiment of the present application provides an assembly device. The assembly device includes a frame, a carrying mechanism, a material preparation mechanism and an attachment mechanism. The carrying mechanism is arranged on the frame. The carrying mechanism is configured to carry a workpiece. The material preparation mechanism is arranged on the frame. The material preparation mechanism is provided with a positioning portion. The positioning portion is configured to position the material. The attachment mechanism includes a suction member and a rotating assembly. The suction member has an adsorption surface. The suction member is configured to adsorb the material to the adsorption surface. The suction member is arranged on the rotating assembly. The rotating assembly is arranged on the frame. The rotating assembly is configured to drive the suction member to rotate between a first position and a second position relative to the rotating assembly. When the suction member is in the first position relative to the rotating assembly, the suction member can adsorb the material located at the positioning portion. When the suction member is in the second position relative to the rotating assembly, the suction member can transfer the adsorbed material to the workpiece. And when the suction member is in the first position or the second position relative to the rotating assembly, the orientation of the adsorption surface is different.
[0005] In the above embodiment, the attachment mechanism moves the material from the location of the material preparation mechanism to the location of the carrying mechanism, the carrying mechanism carries the workpiece to determine the position of the workpiece, and the positioning part of the material preparation mechanism can determine the position of the material prepared for mounting, so that the attachment mechanism can clearly determine the movement route of the material, thereby accurately moving the material to the location of the workpiece to be mounted, so as to accurately mount the material. When the attachment mechanism transfers the material, the suction piece absorbs the material, and the rotating assembly drives the suction piece to move, thereby realizing the transfer of the material. Among them, the rotating assembly drives the suction piece to rotate relative to the rotating assembly. On the one hand, it can realize the suction piece to absorb the material and move it between different positions; on the other hand, it can change the direction of the suction surface of the suction piece, thereby changing the direction of the material, so as to realize the side mounting of the material to the workpiece. Thereby, the accuracy of the material mounting position is improved, so as to improve the mounting yield, reliability and efficiency.
[0006] In some embodiments of the present application, the attachment mechanism further includes an attachment drive assembly. The attachment drive assembly includes an attachment drive member and an attachment slide rail. The rotating assembly is slidably disposed on the attachment slide rail. The rotating assembly is connected to the attachment drive member. The attachment drive member is configured to drive the rotating assembly to slide along the attachment slide rail. When the suction member is in the second position relative to the frame, the rotating assembly moves along the attachment slide rail to make the suction surface approach or move away from the place where the workpiece is to be attached.
[0007] In the above embodiment, after the rotating assembly drives the material absorbing member to move to the second position, the attachment driving member drives the rotating assembly to move, thereby driving the material absorbing member to move, so that the adsorption surface moves toward the material-to-be-attached position of the workpiece, thereby attaching the material to the workpiece, and attaching the material to the workpiece in an automated manner, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of attaching the material to the material. In addition, the rotating assembly slides along the attachment slide rail to improve the stability of the material absorbing member moving along the first direction.
[0008] In some embodiments of the present application, the first direction is defined to be parallel to the direction in which the rotating assembly slides along the attached slide rail. The bearing mechanism includes a bearing seat. The bearing seat is configured to bear a workpiece. The bearing seat is provided with a stopper. The stopper is configured to abut against the workpiece along the first direction to stop the workpiece from moving.
[0009] In the above embodiment, when the attachment drive assembly drives the suction member to move to attach the material to the workpiece, the stop portion can stop the workpiece in the first direction, reducing the possibility of the suction member driving the workpiece to continue to move relative to the supporting seat, thereby increasing the pressure applied by the adsorption surface to the material, which is beneficial to improving the firmness of the material attachment.
[0010] In some embodiments of the present application, a first direction is defined to be parallel to the direction in which the rotating component slides along the attached slide rail. The material preparation mechanism includes a material preparation part, a material preparation drive part and a material preparation slide rail. The material preparation part is provided with a positioning portion. The material preparation part is slidably arranged on the material preparation slide rail. And the material preparation part is connected to the material preparation drive part. The material preparation drive part is configured to drive the material preparation part to slide along the material preparation slide rail. A second direction is defined to be parallel to the direction in which the material preparation part slides along the material preparation slide rail. When the suction part is in the first position relative to the rotating component, the orientation of the adsorption surface is parallel to the second direction.
[0011] In the above embodiment, the material preparation part is provided with a positioning part to position the material to be prepared for mounting. The material preparation driving part drives the material preparation part to slide, so that the material preparation part avoids the first position of the material suction part relative to the rotating component, so that the rotating component drives the material suction part to leave the first position or move to the first position, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the material suction part, so as to improve the stability of the material suction part in adsorbing the material. When the material suction part is in the second position, the orientation of the adsorption surface is parallel to the first direction to facilitate the attachment of the material to the workpiece, and when the material suction part is in the first position, the orientation of the adsorption surface is parallel to the second direction, so as to reduce the possibility of changing the position of the material relative to the adsorption surface due to accidental contact with the material adsorbed to the adsorption surface when the material preparation part moves, thereby improving the stability of the material suction part driving the material to move to the first position, so as to improve the stability of the material relative to the workpiece to be mounted. The material preparation part slides along the material preparation slide rail to improve the stability of the material preparation part moving along the second direction.
[0012] In some embodiments of the present application, the material preparation part is provided with a chute extending along the second direction. The chute wall forms a positioning portion. When the material suction part is in the first position relative to the rotating component and the adsorption surface is in the chute, the chute wall is arranged around the adsorption surface in a direction perpendicular to the second direction.
[0013] In the above embodiment, a slide groove is provided on the material preparation part, and a positioning portion is formed by using the groove wall of the slide groove. On the one hand, the structure where the adsorption surface of the suction part is located can move in the slide groove, which is convenient for the material preparation part to move relative to the suction part, so that the material preparation part can avoid the moving path of the suction part driven by the rotating component. On the other hand, the slide groove extends along the second direction, and the groove wall of the slide groove is distributed perpendicular to the second direction, so that it can be surrounded by the side of the adsorption surface in the second direction, and the groove wall of the slide groove forms a positioning portion to limit the material adsorbed to the adsorption surface, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of the position of the material relative to the adsorption surface, so as to improve the accuracy of the material mounting on the workpiece.
[0014] In some embodiments of the present application, the bearing mechanism includes a bearing seat, a bearing drive member and a bearing slide rail. The bearing seat is configured to bear a workpiece. The bearing seat is slidably disposed on the bearing slide rail. The bearing seat is connected to the bearing drive member. The bearing drive member is configured to drive the bearing seat to slide along the bearing slide rail. A third direction is defined to be parallel to the direction in which the bearing seat slides along the bearing slide rail. The third direction intersects both the first direction and the second direction.
[0015] In the above embodiment, the bearing drive member drives the bearing seat to slide, and the direction in which the bearing seat slides is different from the first direction and the second direction, so that the bearing seat can be away from the material preparation mechanism and the attachment mechanism, so as to facilitate the setting of the workpiece on the bearing seat and the fixing of the workpiece. The bearing seat slides along the bearing slide rail to improve the stability of the bearing seat moving along the third direction.
[0016] In some embodiments of the present application, the frame includes a machine platform and a machine cover. The bearing mechanism, the material preparation mechanism, the attachment mechanism and the machine cover are all arranged on the machine platform. The machine cover is provided with a bearing mechanism, a material preparation mechanism and an attachment mechanism. The machine cover is provided with a first avoidance area and a second avoidance area. When the bearing seat slides, it enters into the machine cover or leaves the machine cover through the first avoidance area. The positioning part is located in the machine cover and is adjacent to the second avoidance area. The second avoidance area is configured to allow the material to pass through the machine cover to move to the location of the positioning part.
[0017] In the above embodiment, the bearing mechanism, the material preparation mechanism and the attachment mechanism are fixed to each other through the machine table, which is convenient for determining the position of the suction member when adsorbing the material at the positioning part, and is convenient for determining the position of the suction member when attaching the material to the workpiece arranged on the bearing mechanism, thereby improving the accuracy of attaching the material to the workpiece. The machine cover is provided with the bearing mechanism, the material preparation mechanism and the attachment mechanism, which can protect the above mechanisms and reduce the influence of the external environment on the material setting position and the workpiece setting position. By providing a first avoidance area on the machine cover, it is convenient for the bearing seat to enter and exit the machine cover, so as to facilitate the loading of the workpiece onto the bearing seat. By providing a second avoidance area on the machine cover, it is convenient for the material to enter and exit the machine cover, so as to facilitate the loading of the material onto the positioning part.
[0018] In some embodiments of the present application, the attachment mechanism further includes an attachment moving assembly. The attachment moving assembly includes a moving drive member and a moving slide rail. The attachment drive assembly is slidably disposed on the moving slide rail. The attachment drive assembly is connected to the moving drive member. The moving drive member is configured to drive the attachment drive assembly to slide along the moving slide rail. The direction in which the attachment drive assembly slides along the moving slide rail intersects with the direction in which the rotating assembly slides along the attachment slide rail.
[0019] In the above embodiment, when the mobile driving member drives the attachment driving assembly to move, the rotating assembly and the material suction member are driven to move together, thereby adjusting the position of the material suction member to improve the accuracy of the position of the adsorption surface relative to the workpiece to be attached when the material suction member rotates to the second position relative to the rotating assembly. The attachment driving assembly slides along the moving slide rail to improve the stability of the attachment driving assembly, the rotating assembly, and the material suction member.
[0020] In some embodiments of the present application, the rotating assembly includes a rotating connector, a rotating drive, a first positioning member, and a second positioning member. The suction member is arranged on the rotating connector. The rotating connector is arranged on the rotating drive. The rotating drive is configured to drive the rotating connector to rotate. The first positioning member and the second positioning member are respectively used to detect different rotational positions of the rotating connector. When the first positioning member detects the rotating connector, the suction member is in a first position relative to the rotating assembly. When the second positioning member detects the rotating connector, the suction member is in a second position relative to the rotating assembly.
[0021] In the above embodiment, the rotating driving member drives the suction member to rotate via the rotating connecting head, and the rotating connecting head moves synchronously with the suction member. The rotation position of the rotating connecting head is confirmed by the first positioning member and the second positioning member, so that the accuracy of the suction member moving to the first position and the second position can be confirmed, thereby improving the accuracy of material placement on the workpiece.
[0022] In some embodiments of the present application, the rotating assembly further comprises a rotating adapter. The rotating adapter is fixed relative to the rotating driving member. The rotating adapter is provided with an arc groove. The first positioning member and the second positioning member are both provided in the arc groove.

[0079] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0080] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.
[0081] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that the terms "inside", "outside", etc. indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.
[0082] Furthermore, the terms “first,” “second,” “third,” etc. are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0083] In the related technologies of assembling microphone breathable membranes, the assembly precision is high and the technical difficulty is great. The yield, reliability and efficiency of manual assembly are low, while the price of multi-axis robot assembly is high. Therefore, a new assembly equipment is needed to realize the assembly of microphone breathable membranes through linear motion control.
[0084] An embodiment of the present application provides an assembly device. The assembly device includes a frame, a carrying mechanism, a material preparation mechanism and an attachment mechanism. The carrying mechanism is arranged on the frame. The carrying mechanism is configured to carry a workpiece. The material preparation mechanism is arranged on the frame. The material preparation mechanism is provided with a positioning portion. The positioning portion is configured to position the material. The attachment mechanism includes a suction member and a rotating assembly. The suction member has an adsorption surface. The suction member is configured to adsorb the material to the adsorption surface. The suction member is arranged on the rotating assembly. The rotating assembly is arranged on the frame. The rotating assembly is configured to drive the suction member to rotate between a first position and a second position relative to the rotating assembly. When the suction member is in the first position relative to the rotating assembly, the suction member can adsorb the material located at the positioning portion. When the suction member is in the second position relative to the rotating assembly, the suction member can transfer the adsorbed material to the workpiece. And when the suction member is in the first position or the second position relative to the rotating assembly, the orientation of the adsorption surface is different.
[0085] The attachment mechanism moves the material from the material preparation mechanism to the carrying mechanism. The carrying mechanism carries the workpiece to determine the position of the workpiece. The positioning part of the material preparation mechanism can determine the position of the material prepared for mounting, so that the attachment mechanism can clearly determine the movement route of the material, thereby accurately moving the material to the workpiece where the material is to be mounted, so as to accurately mount the material. When the attachment mechanism transfers the material, the suction piece absorbs the material, and the rotating assembly drives the suction piece to move, thereby realizing the transfer of the material. Among them, the rotating assembly drives the suction piece to rotate relative to the rotating assembly. On the one hand, it can realize the suction piece to absorb the material and move it between different positions; on the other hand, it can change the direction of the suction surface of the suction piece, thereby changing the direction of the material, so as to realize the side mounting of the material to the workpiece. Thereby, the accuracy of the material mounting position is improved, so as to improve the mounting yield, reliability and efficiency.
[0086] Some embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0087] See also Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 An embodiment of the present application provides an assembly device 100 . The assembly device 100 is used to mount a material 300 on a workpiece 200 .
[0088] See also Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6In some embodiments, the workpiece 200 is a housing of a digital product. The material 300 is a microphone breathable film. As an exemplary example, the digital product includes a mobile phone, a portable computer, a tablet computer, etc. Therefore, the material 300 is usually mounted on the inner wall of the workpiece 200, and the operation range of the mounting operation is relatively narrow.
[0089] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the assembly device 100 includes a frame 1, a carrying mechanism 2, a material preparation mechanism 3, and an attachment mechanism 4. The carrying mechanism 2, the material preparation mechanism 3, and the attachment mechanism 4 are all arranged on the frame 1. The carrying mechanism 2, the material preparation mechanism 3, and the attachment mechanism 4 are fixed to each other. The carrying mechanism 2 is configured to carry the workpiece 200. The material preparation mechanism 3 is configured to position the material 300 prepared for mounting. The attachment mechanism 4 is configured to transfer the material 300 from the material preparation mechanism 3 to the carrying mechanism 2, and mount the material 300 to the place 201 to be mounted on the workpiece 200.
[0090] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the material preparation mechanism 3 is provided with a positioning portion 311. The positioning portion 311 is configured to position the material 300. The attachment mechanism 4 includes a suction member 41 and a rotating assembly 42. The suction member 41 has an adsorption surface 4111. The suction member 41 is configured to adsorb the material 300 to the adsorption surface 4111. The suction member 41 is disposed on the rotating assembly 42. The rotating assembly 42 is disposed on the frame 1. The rotating assembly 42 is configured to drive the suction member 41 to rotate between a first position and a second position relative to the rotating assembly 42. When the suction member 41 is in the first position relative to the rotating assembly 42, the suction member 41 can adsorb the material 300 located at the positioning portion 311. When the suction member 41 is in the second position relative to the rotating assembly 42, the suction member 41 can transfer the adsorbed material 300 to the workpiece 200. And when the suction member 41 is in the first position or the second position relative to the rotating assembly 42, the orientation of the adsorption surface 4111 is different. In some embodiments, the carrying mechanism 2 includes a carrying seat 21 . The carrying seat 21 is configured to carry the workpiece 200 .
[0091] The attaching mechanism 4 moves the material 300 from the location of the material preparation mechanism 3 to the location of the carrying mechanism 2. The carrying mechanism 2 carries the workpiece 200 to determine the position of the workpiece 200. The positioning portion 311 of the material preparation mechanism 3 can determine the position of the material 300 prepared for mounting, so that the attaching mechanism 4 can clearly determine the moving route of the material 300, thereby accurately moving the material 300 to the location 201 of the workpiece 200 to be mounted, so as to accurately mount the material. When the attaching mechanism 4 transfers the material 300, the suction member 41 absorbs the material 300, and the rotating assembly 42 drives the suction member 41 to move, thereby realizing the transfer of the material 300. Among them, the rotating assembly 42 drives the suction member 41 to rotate relative to the rotating assembly 42. On the one hand, the suction member 41 can realize the movement of the material 300 adsorbed by the material 300 between different positions; on the other hand, the orientation of the suction surface 4111 of the suction member 41 can be changed, thereby changing the orientation of the material 300, so as to realize the side mounting of the material 300 to the workpiece 200. This improves the accuracy of the mounting position of the material 300, thereby improving the mounting yield, reliability and efficiency.
[0092] In some embodiments, the suction member 41 is equipped with a vacuum air pump or other device to achieve vacuum adsorption.
[0093] Figure 2 The structural state shown is a schematic diagram of the suction member 41 being in the first position relative to the rotating assembly 42. Figure 4 The structural state shown is a schematic diagram of when the material suction member 41 is in the second position relative to the rotating assembly 42.
[0094] The first direction X is defined as a direction parallel to the distribution of the rotating assembly 42 and the material preparation mechanism 3, the second direction Y is defined as a direction parallel to the distribution of the rotating assembly 42 and the supporting mechanism 2, and the third direction Z is defined as a direction parallel to the direction of the rotating shaft of the rotating assembly 42 driving the material suction member 41 to rotate. The first direction X, the second direction Y and the third direction Z intersect with each other. In some embodiments, the first direction X, the second direction Y and the third direction Z are perpendicular to each other.
[0095] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the rotating assembly 42 includes a rotating connector 421, a rotating driving member 422, a first positioning member 423, and a second positioning member 424. The suction member 41 is disposed on the rotating connector 421. The rotating connector 421 is disposed on the rotating driving member 422. The rotating driving member 422 is configured to drive the rotating connector 421 to rotate. The first positioning member 423 and the second positioning member 424 are respectively used to detect different rotational positions of the rotating connector 421. When the first positioning member 423 detects the rotating connector 421, the suction member 41 is in a first position relative to the rotating assembly 42. When the second positioning member 424 detects the rotating connector 421, the suction member 41 is in a second position relative to the rotating assembly 42.
[0096] The rotating driving member 422 drives the suction member 41 to rotate via the rotating connecting head 421. The rotating connecting head 421 moves synchronously with the suction member 41. The rotation position of the rotating connecting head 421 is confirmed by the first positioning member 423 and the second positioning member 424, so as to confirm the accuracy of the suction member 41 moving to the first position and the second position, thereby improving the accuracy of the material 300 being mounted on the workpiece 200.
[0097] In some embodiments, the rotary driving member 422 is a servo motor, which is helpful to improve the accuracy of driving the suction member 41 to rotate to a desired position.
[0098] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the rotary connector 421 is protrudingly provided with a sensing mating portion 4211. The first positioning member 423 is a photoelectric sensor or a contact sensor. The rotary connector 421 rotates so that the sensing mating portion 4211 blocks the light of the first positioning member 423 or contacts the first positioning member 423, so that the first positioning member 423 detects the rotary connector 421. The second positioning member 424 is a photoelectric sensor or a contact sensor. The rotary connector 421 rotates so that the sensing mating portion 4211 blocks the light of the second positioning member 424 or contacts the second positioning member 424, so that the second positioning member 424 detects the rotary connector 421.
[0099] It is understandable that in other embodiments, along the rotation direction of the rotating connector 421, the first positioning member 423 and the second positioning member 424 can respectively stop the rotating connector 421 from rotating in opposite rotation directions, thereby detecting the rotating connector 421 by limiting the rotation of the rotating connector 421.
[0100] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the rotating assembly 42 further includes a rotating adapter 425. The rotating adapter 425 is fixed relative to the rotating driving member 422. The rotating adapter 425 is provided with an arc groove 4251. The first positioning member 423 and the second positioning member 424 are both provided in the arc groove 4251. The first positioning member 423 and the second positioning member 424 are configured to be able to move along the arc groove 4251 respectively.
[0101] The first positioning member 423 and the second positioning member 424 can move along the arc groove 4251, so as to change the confirmation position of the first positioning member 423 and the second positioning member 424 with respect to the rotating connector 421, so that after changing the first position and the second position of the suction member 41, the first positioning member 423 and the second positioning member 424 can still be accurately positioned.
[0102] See also Figure 2In some embodiments, the attachment mechanism 4 further includes an attachment drive assembly 43. The attachment drive assembly 43 includes an attachment drive member 431 and an attachment slide rail 432. The rotating assembly 42 is slidably disposed on the attachment slide rail 432. The direction in which the rotating assembly 42 slides along the attachment slide rail 432 is parallel to the first direction X. And the rotating assembly 42 is connected to the attachment drive member 431. The attachment drive member 431 is configured to drive the rotating assembly 42 to slide along the attachment slide rail 432. When the suction member 41 is in the second position relative to the frame 1, the rotating assembly 42 moves along the attachment slide rail 432 to make the suction surface 4111 approach or move away from the place 201 to be attached to the workpiece 200.
[0103] After the rotating assembly 42 drives the material suction member 41 for adsorbing the material 300 to move to the second position, the attachment driving member 431 drives the rotating assembly 42 to move, thereby driving the material suction member 41 to move, so that the adsorption surface 4111 moves toward the material-to-be-attached location 201 of the workpiece 200, thereby attaching the material 300 to the workpiece 200, and attaching the material 300 to the workpiece 200 in an automated manner, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of attaching the material 300 to the material 300. In addition, the rotating assembly 42 slides along the attachment slide rail 432 to improve the stability of the material suction member 41 moving along the first direction X.
[0104] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the rotating assembly 42 further includes a first adapter 426. The rotating driving member 422 is fixedly disposed on the first adapter 426. The first adapter 426 is slidably disposed on the attachment rail 432. The first adapter 426 is connected to the attachment driving member 431. The attachment driving member 431 drives the first adapter 426 to slide, so that the rotating assembly 42 and the material suction member 41 move.
[0105] In some embodiments, the attachment driving member 431 is a cylinder, which has high action efficiency and can apply sufficient force to the material 300. In other embodiments, the attachment driving member 431 can also be a motor or a hydraulic cylinder.
[0106] In other embodiments, the attachment drive assembly 43 may also be disposed between the rotating assembly 42 and the material suction member 41. When the rotating assembly 42 drives the material suction member 41 to rotate to the second position, the attachment drive assembly 43 drives the material suction member 41 to move along the first direction X, so that the adsorption surface 4111 drives the material 300 to move toward the material-to-be-attached location 201 of the workpiece 200, so as to attach the material 300 to the material-to-be-attached location 201 of the workpiece 200. The attachment drive assembly 43 may also be disposed between the bearing mechanism 2 and the frame 1. When the rotating assembly 42 drives the material suction member 41 to rotate to the second position, the attachment drive assembly 43 drives the bearing mechanism 2 to move along the first direction X, and the bearing mechanism 2 drives the workpiece 200 to move so that the material-to-be-attached location 201 of the workpiece 200 moves toward the material 300, so as to attach the material 300 to the material-to-be-attached location 201 of the workpiece 200.
[0107] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the support base 21 is provided with a stopper 211. The stopper 211 is configured to abut against the workpiece 200 along the first direction X to stop the workpiece 200 from moving.
[0108] When the attachment drive assembly 43 drives the suction member 41 to move so as to attach the material 300 to the workpiece 200, the stop portion 211 can stop the workpiece 200 in the first direction X, thereby reducing the possibility of the suction member 41 driving the workpiece 200 to continuously move relative to the supporting seat 21, thereby increasing the pressure applied by the adsorption surface 4111 to the material 300, which is beneficial to improving the firmness of the attachment of the material 300.
[0109] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the attachment mechanism 4 further includes an attachment moving assembly 44. The attachment moving assembly 44 includes a moving driving member 441 and a moving slide rail 442. The attachment driving assembly 43 is slidably disposed on the moving slide rail 442. And the attachment driving assembly 43 is connected to the moving driving member 441. The moving driving member 441 is configured to drive the attachment driving assembly 43 to slide along the moving slide rail 442. The direction in which the attachment driving assembly 43 slides along the moving slide rail 442 intersects with the direction in which the rotating assembly 42 slides along the attachment slide rail 432. It can be understood that in some embodiments, the direction in which the attachment driving assembly 43 slides along the moving slide rail 442 is parallel to the second direction Y.
[0110] When the moving driving member 441 drives the attaching driving assembly 43 to move, it drives the rotating assembly 42 and the material suction member 41 to move together, thereby adjusting the position of the material suction member 41 to improve the accuracy of the position of the adsorption surface 4111 relative to the material attachment location 201 of the workpiece 200 when the material suction member 41 rotates to the second position relative to the rotating assembly 42. The attaching driving assembly 43 slides along the moving slide rail 442 to improve the stability of the attaching driving assembly 43, the rotating assembly 42, and the material suction member 41.
[0111] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the attachment drive assembly 43 further includes a second adapter 433. The attachment drive member 431 and the attachment slide rail 432 are fixedly disposed on the second adapter 433. The movable slide rail 442 is fixedly disposed on the frame 1. The second adapter 433 is slidably disposed on the movable slide rail 442. The second adapter 433 is connected to the movable drive member 441. The movable drive member 441 drives the second adapter 433 to slide, so that the attachment drive assembly 43, the rotating assembly 42 and the material suction member 41 move.
[0112] In some embodiments, the moving driving member 441 is a servo motor, which is helpful to improve the accuracy of driving the attachment driving component 43, the rotating component 42 and the suction component 41 to move to the desired position.

[0114] The material preparation component 31 is provided with a positioning portion 311 to position the material 300 prepared for mounting. The material preparation driving component 32 drives the material preparation component 31 to slide, so that the material preparation component 31 avoids the first position of the material suction component 41 relative to the rotating component 42, so that the rotating component 42 drives the material suction component 41 to leave the first position or move to the first position, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the material suction component 41 and improving the stability of the material suction component 41 in adsorbing the material 300. When the suction member 41 is in the second position, the suction surface 4111 is oriented parallel to the first direction X so as to attach the material 300 to the workpiece 200, while when the suction member 41 is in the first position, the suction surface 4111 is oriented parallel to the second direction Y so as to reduce the possibility of changing the position of the material 300 relative to the suction surface 4111 due to the material 300 adsorbed to the suction surface 4111 being accidentally touched when the material preparation member 31 moves, thereby improving the stability of the suction member 41 driving the material 300 to move to the first position, so as to improve the stability of the material 300 relative to the workpiece 200 to be attached. The material preparation member 31 slides along the material preparation slide rail 33 to improve the stability of the material preparation member 31 moving along the second direction Y.

[0117] A chute 312 is provided on the material preparation part 31, and a positioning portion 311 is formed by using the groove wall of the chute 312. On the one hand, the structure where the adsorption surface 4111 of the material suction part 41 is located can move in the chute 312, which is convenient for the material preparation part 31 to move relative to the material suction part 41, so that the material preparation part 31 can avoid the moving path of the material suction part 41 driven by the rotating component 42. On the other hand, the chute 312 extends along the second direction Y, and the groove wall of the chute 312 is distributed perpendicular to the second direction Y, so that it can be surrounded by the surrounding side of the adsorption surface 4111 in the second direction Y, and the groove wall of the chute 312 forms a positioning portion 311 to limit the material 300 adsorbed to the adsorption surface 4111, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of the position of the material 300 relative to the adsorption surface 4111, so as to improve the accuracy of the material 300 being mounted on the workpiece 200.

The material preparation drive member 32 drives the material preparation member 31 to move, so that the structure where the suction surface 4111 of the material suction member 41 is located is separated from the slide groove 312 of the material preparation member 31. The rotating drive member 422 drives the rotating connector 421 to rotate until the second positioning member 424 detects the rotating connector 421, so that the material suction member 41 rotates from the first position to the second position relative to the rotating component 42. The moving drive member 441 drives the pasting drive component 43 to move, and the bearing drive member 22 drives the bearing seat 21 to move, so that the suction surface 4111 is aligned with the place 201 of the workpiece 200 to be pasted along the first direction X.

[0131] Reset: The attachment drive member 431 drives the rotating assembly 42 to move so that the adsorption surface 4111 is away from the place 201 of the workpiece 200 to be attached. The moving drive member 441 drives the attachment drive assembly 43 to move, and the bearing drive member 22 drives the bearing seat 21 to move so that the position of the workpiece 200 placed on the bearing seat 21 is reset to the outside of the hood 12. The rotating drive member 422 drives the rotating connector 421 to rotate until the first positioning member 423 detects the rotating connector 421, so that the suction member 41 rotates from the second position to the first position relative to the rotating assembly 42. The material preparation drive member 32 drives the material preparation member 31 to move so that the structure where the adsorption surface 4111 of the suction member 41 is located re-enters the slide groove 312 of the material preparation member 31.
