In addition, in the description of the present invention, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0017] The following is combined with Figure 1-2 This application is described in further detail.

[0018] An automatic suction and placement device for collecting FPC boards comprises a main body 1, wherein an X-axis module 2, a Y-axis module 3, a Y-axis sub-frame module 4 and a Z-axis suction module 5 are arranged in the main body 1, two module main frames are arranged opposite to each other in the main body 1, the Y-axis module 3 and the Y-axis sub-frame module 4 are respectively fixed to the two module main frames, the two ends of the X-axis module 2 are respectively arranged on the Y-axis module 3 and the Y-axis sub-frame module 4, the Z-axis suction module 5 is arranged on the X-axis module 2, an upper machine position 6 and a swing plate position 7 are arranged at the bottom of the main body 1, and the Z-axis suction module 5 is used for adsorbing materials from the upper machine position 6 and conveying them to the swing plate position 7 for placement.

[0019] The X-axis module 2, the Y-axis module 3 and the Y-axis sub-frame module 4 use a motor screw to adjust the Z-axis suction module 5 to move along the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction, so that the Z-axis suction module 5 can reach a specific position. The Z-axis suction module 5 includes a telescopic rod structure so that it can be longitudinally extended, so that the suction cup of the Z-axis suction module 5 can descend and absorb the material.

[0020] In one embodiment, the upper machine position 6 is provided with a loading tray 8, and the tray placement position 7 is provided with an empty tray. In the initial position, the Z-axis suction module 5 is located above the upper machine position 6, and the staff places the loading tray 8 filled with materials on the upper machine position 6, and then starts the Z-axis suction module 5 to absorb the materials and move along the X-axis and Y-axis directions, and transports the materials to the empty tray for tray placement. After the materials in the loading tray 8 are absorbed, the staff replaces another loading tray 8 filled with materials and repeats the above steps. In this way, by realizing the replacement of man and machine, it helps to save manpower and material resources. In the process of using automated machinery, FPC overlap is avoided, which helps to ensure production quality, while reducing manpower input and helping to reduce production costs.

[0021] A material ejecting and degumming device 9 for ejecting the material from the mounting tray 8 is provided at the bottom of the upper machine position 6. The material ejecting and degumming device 9 may specifically be an electric push rod structure, which helps prevent the FPC from failing to be adsorbed by the adsorption port 10 due to the adhesion of the bottom silicone to the mounting tray 8.

[0022] In one embodiment, the Z-axis suction module 5 is provided with a plurality of suction ports 10, the position of the suction ports 10 is adjustable, and there is an offset in position after the material is ejected out of the mounting tray 8 by the ejection and degumming device 9. After the suction ports 10 automatically adjust their positions and absorb the FPC material, the spacing between the suction ports 10 is adjusted so that the spacing between the FPC materials matches the empty tray and the materials are placed in the empty tray for tray arrangement.

[0023] In one embodiment, a plurality of observation windows 11 are provided on the side wall of the body 1 .

[0024] In one embodiment, the main body 1 is provided with a photoelectric detection device for detecting whether there is any shortage of materials in the actual loading tray 8 placed on the upper computer, and cannot be started when there is shortage of materials.

[0025] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
