DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0049] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying 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. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0050] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application. In the description of the present application, "plurality" means two or more than two, and at least one means one, two or more than two, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0051] It should also be noted that in the drawings of the embodiments of the present application, arrows marked with X, Z, and Y represent the first direction X, the second direction Z, and the third direction Y, respectively. In the description of the present application, the first direction X, the second direction Z, and the third direction Y, which are three mutually intersecting directions, are introduced to more clearly describe the structure of the plate bin equipment and the relative position relationship of each component. Depending on the placement of the plate bin equipment, the first direction X, the second direction Z, and the third direction Y can point to any actual orientation in space. Optionally, the first direction X, the second direction Z, and the third direction Y are perpendicular to each other.

[0052] In the process of printed circuit board (PCB), such as drilling, the sheet is stacked with pad + copper clad sheet + aluminum sheet, fixed with pins, and wrapped with tape around to realize the integrated transportation and processing of multiple sheets. Usually, the sizes of PCB sheets are different, the tooling and fixtures cannot be unified and the structure is complex, which is not conducive to the development of automation. In the PCB drilling automation solution, most of them use AGV to carry a replaceable silo mode to load and unload the drilling rig. In order to adapt to PCB sheets of different sizes, the silo structure is relatively complex, and there are many guide grooves to accommodate sheets of different sizes. Some also have conveyor belts, which are costly. In addition, because the silo is replaceable, it is not conducive to adding sensors inside the silo, and full-process monitoring cannot be achieved. In addition, due to the limited height of circuit board processing equipment such as drilling rigs, the number of silo layers is limited, which affects the efficiency of loading and unloading. When loading and unloading PIN lines, the usual way to enter and exit the board is the positive and negative stacking method. The positive and negative stacking method is not conducive to the separation of sheets, nor is it conducive to the development of automated loading and unloading. The positive and negative stacking method can easily cause scratches on the sheets. Many automatic loading and unloading equipment cannot realize double-sided loading and unloading and must turn, which has low efficiency.

[0053] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a plate bin equipment and a loading and unloading system to overcome at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0054] like Figures 1 to 4 The plate material bin equipment 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a bin body 110 , which is a main component of the plate material bin equipment 100 for accommodating plate materials 10 . The bin body 110 is provided with an accommodating space 113 , in which the plate materials 10 can be accommodated.

[0055] The warehouse body 110 includes a first side plate 111 , a second side plate 112 and a plurality of support assemblies 120 .

[0056] The first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X, and the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 are used to enclose the accommodation space 113. In other words, the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 are arranged along the first direction X and are spaced from each other, and the space formed by the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 is the accommodation space 113, and the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 define the boundary of the accommodation space 113 in the first direction X.

[0057] A plurality of support assemblies 120 are arranged in the accommodation space 113 along the second direction Z. The support assemblies 120 include a first support portion 121 and a second support portion 122 arranged at intervals along the first direction X. The first support portion 121 is connected to the first side plate 111, and the second support portion 122 is connected to the second side plate 112. Each support assembly 120 is used to support at least one sheet material 10 in the accommodation space 113.

[0058] It can be understood that in the sheet material bin equipment 100 of the present application, in the bin body 110, the first support part 121 of the support assembly 120 is connected to the first side plate 111, and the second support part 122 is connected to the second side plate 112. The first support part 121 and the second support part 122 can respectively lift the two sides of the sheet material 10, so that the sheet material 10 can be supported in the accommodating space 113, and there is no need to place the sheet material 10 in a positive and negative stacking manner, which can reduce the situation of scratching the sheet material 10; and, the sheet material 10 can be supported only by lifting the two sides of the sheet material 10, and there is no need to set up a complex structure in the middle of the bin body 110, which can reduce costs; at the same time, it can also keep the placement directions of the multiple supported sheets 10 the same, which is conducive to separating the sheets 10 and facilitating the implementation of automated loading and unloading operations; in addition, the sheet material bin equipment 100 can be applied to occasions with sheets 10 of a single size, which is conducive to standardization of production.

[0059] The first direction X is the arrangement direction of the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112, and the second direction Z intersects with the first direction X. Optionally, the second direction Z can be a horizontal direction or a vertical direction. In some embodiments, the second direction Z is a vertical direction, and the sheet 10 can be supported on the support assembly 120, and the first support portion 121 and the second support portion 122 of the support assembly 120 are respectively supported on both sides of the sheet 10 along the first direction X.

[0060] In some embodiments, the size deviation value of the sheet materials 10 supported by the multiple support assemblies 120 is less than or equal to 30 mm, that is, the size deviation value of the sheet material 10 supported on one support assembly 120 and the sheet material 10 supported on another support assembly 120 is less than or equal to 30 mm. The size deviation value may be the size deviation value of the sheet material 10 along the first direction X, or the size deviation value along the second direction Z, or the size deviation value along the third direction Y. The size deviation value between the sheets 10 can be obtained by measuring the length, width and height of the sheet material 10 respectively and comparing them. The size deviation value is controlled within the above range so that the size deviation between the sheets 10 is not too large, that is, each sheet material 10 has roughly the same size, which is conducive to the standardization of production on the one hand, and can facilitate the grasping device 200 to grasp the sheet material 10 accurately on the other hand.

[0061] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the silo 110 is further provided with a second opening 114 connected to the accommodation space 113, and along the third direction Y, the second opening 114 is located at one side of the support assembly 120, and the sheet material 10 can enter and move out of the accommodation space 113 through the second opening 114. In other words, the second opening 114 is a material feeding and discharging port of the silo 110, and the sheet material 10 can enter or move out of the accommodation space 113 along the third direction Y through the second opening 114.

[0062] The first direction X, the second direction Z and the third direction Y intersect each other. In some embodiments, the third direction Y is the length direction of the first support portion 121 and the second support portion 122 , and both extend along the third direction Y.

[0063] In some embodiments, the bin body 110 is provided with a plurality of second openings 114, and the plurality of second openings 114 are respectively located on both sides of the support assembly 120 along the third direction Y. Specifically, the second openings 114 can be respectively opened on both sides of the bin body 110 along the third direction Y, so that the second openings 114 are provided on both sides of the support assembly 120 along the third direction Y, and the sheet material 10 can be loaded and unloaded from the second openings 114 on both sides, thereby increasing the convenience of loading and unloading.

[0064] Please refer again Figure 2In some embodiments, the warehouse body 110 further includes a bottom plate 115, and the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 are respectively connected to the bottom plate 115 to enclose the accommodation space 113. It can be understood that the first side plate 111, the second side plate 112 and the bottom plate 115 are three components of the warehouse body 110, and the first side plate 111 and the second side plate 112 are spaced from each other along the first direction X and connected to the bottom plate 115, so that the three can enclose the accommodation space 113. The warehouse body 110 is also provided with a first opening 116 connected to the accommodation space 113. Along the second direction Z, the first opening 116 is located on the side of the accommodation space 113 away from the bottom plate 115, that is, the first opening 116 is the top opening of the warehouse body 110, and the sheet material 10 can enter and move out of the accommodation space 113 through the first opening 116, and is supported on the support assembly 120 farthest from the bottom plate 115.

[0065] By setting the first opening 116, on the one hand, the sheet material 10 can be placed on the topmost support assembly 120 among the multiple support assemblies 120 through the first opening 116, or the sheet material 10 can be grabbed from the topmost support assembly 120; on the other hand, when the sheet material bin equipment 100 is used in a loading and unloading system, the first opening 116 can provide a working space for the grabbing device 200, so that the bin body 110 will not interfere with the grabbing device 200, and it is convenient for the grabbing device 200 to move into the accommodating space 113 to grab the sheet material 10 or place the sheet material 10.

[0066] Please also read Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the sheet material warehouse equipment 100 further includes a temporary storage device 130 for carrying the warehouse body 110. One of the warehouse body 110 and the temporary storage device 130 is provided with a positioning portion 131, and the other is provided with a positioning hole (not shown in the figure). When the warehouse body 110 is carried on the temporary storage device 130, the positioning portion 131 is embedded in the positioning hole to position the warehouse body 110 on the temporary storage device 130. It can be understood that the temporary storage device 130 is a supporting structure for supporting and placing the warehouse body 110 in the sheet material warehouse equipment 100, and can support the weight of the support assembly 120 and the sheet material 10 in the warehouse body 110 and its accommodating space 113. By respectively providing the positioning hole and the positioning portion in the warehouse body 110 and the temporary storage device 130, the warehouse body 110 can be positioned, and then the support assembly 120 and the sheet material 10 in the warehouse body 110 can be accurately positioned, thereby improving the success rate of the gripping device 200 in taking and placing the sheet material 10.

[0067] Please also read Figure 1 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the sheet material warehouse equipment 100 further includes a transport device 140 for moving the warehouse body 110; the temporary storage device 130 has a parking space 132, and the transport device 140 can move to the parking space 132 to move the warehouse body 110 to and from the temporary storage device 130. The transport device 140 can be set as a device that can move automatically, such as an AGV trolley, and the transport device 140 can carry the warehouse body 110 thereon to move the warehouse body 110. The transport device 140 moves to the parking space 132 of the temporary storage device 130 to place the warehouse body 110 on the temporary storage device 130, or transport the warehouse body on the temporary storage device 130.

[0068] Please combine Figure 5 In some embodiments, the sheet material warehouse equipment 100 includes a plurality of temporary storage devices 130, and the transport device 140 is used to move the warehouse body 110 between the plurality of temporary storage devices 130, so as to facilitate the sorting of the warehouse body 110. The warehouse body 110 storing raw materials (sheet materials 10 to be processed), the warehouse body 110 storing cooked materials (processed sheet materials 10), the empty warehouse body 110, and the full warehouse body 110 can be placed on the corresponding temporary storage devices 130 respectively to facilitate automatic loading and unloading.

[0069] In some embodiments, the sheet material warehouse equipment 100 further includes an identification member, which is disposed on the warehouse body 110 and is used to indicate information of the warehouse body 110; the handling device 140 is provided with a first code reader, which is used to read the information indicated by the identification member. The identification member may be a two-dimensional code, and the information contained may be the number of the warehouse body 110, the placement position of the warehouse body 110, the information of the sheet material 10 placed inside the warehouse body 110, etc.

[0070] Please also refer to Figures 5 to 8 The embodiment of the present application further provides a loading and unloading system, which includes the silo device 100 in any of the above embodiments. It can be understood that the loading and unloading system can have all the technical features and technical effects of the above silo device 100, which will not be repeated here.

[0071] In some embodiments, the loading and unloading system further includes: a gripping device 200 , a transfer device 300 and a loading and unloading device 400 .

[0072] The grabbing device 200 is disposed on one side of the plate material bin device 100, and the transfer device 300 is disposed on one side of the grabbing device 200. The grabbing device 200 is used to transfer the plate material 10 between the transfer device 300 and the plate material bin device 100. That is, the grabbing device 200 can grab the plate material 10 in the bin body 110 of the plate material bin device 100 and place it on the transfer device 300, or grab the plate material 10 on the transfer device 300 and place it in the bin body 110 of the plate material bin device 100.

[0073] The loading and unloading equipment 400 can move between the transfer equipment 300 and the circuit board processing equipment 500 , and is used to provide the board material 10 to be processed provided by the transfer equipment 300 to the circuit board processing equipment 500 , and to transfer the processed board material 10 to the transfer equipment 300 .

[0074] Thus, by setting up the grabbing device 200 and the transfer device 300, the transfer of the sheet material 10 can be achieved between the sheet material bin device 100 and the loading and unloading device 400, so that the number of layers of the supporting assembly 120 of the sheet material bin equipment 100 can be unlimited, and more layers can be set to support more sheets 10.

[0075] Specifically, in the loading and unloading system of some embodiments of the present application, the loading and unloading equipment 400 is responsible for automatically loading and unloading the circuit board processing equipment 500, loading the raw material onto the circuit board processing equipment 500 for processing, and removing the processed clinker from the circuit board processing equipment 500. When all the raw materials in the loading and unloading equipment 400 are turned into clinker, the loading and unloading equipment 400 automatically goes to the transfer equipment 300 to unload and load the raw material. The order can be first to unload the clinker and then to load the new material. The grabbing device 200 extracts the raw material sheet 10 layer by layer from the multiple supporting components 120 in the warehouse body 110 of the sheet warehouse equipment 100, and puts it into the transfer equipment 300, and transfers it to the loading and unloading equipment 400 through the transfer equipment 300. The grabbing device 200 grabs the clinker sheet 10 on the transfer equipment 300, and puts the sheet 10 layer by layer into the multiple supporting components 120 in the warehouse body 110. The silo 110 of the sheet material silo equipment 100 is transported between the temporary storage devices 130 by the transport device 140. After the silo 110 is filled with sheet materials 10, the transport device 140 can move the silo 110 filled with cooked material to the empty temporary storage device 130, and move the silo 110 filled with raw material back to the temporary storage device 130 next to the gripping device 200.

[0076] See also Fig. 9In some embodiments, the grabbing device 200 includes a base 210 and a manipulator 220. The base 210 is disposed on one side of the sheet material bin device 100 and is used to carry the manipulator 220. The manipulator 220 is disposed on the base 210 and is used to grab and move the sheet material 10 to transfer the sheet material 10 between the transfer device 300 and the sheet material bin device 100.

[0077] Specifically, the manipulator 220 may be a six-axis manipulator, on which a clamping claw 221 may be provided for clamping and placing the sheet 10. A visual module 222 may also be provided on the manipulator, through which the position of the sheet 10 can be determined, and the identification such as a QR code on the sheet 10 can be read to locate the starting position and the final position, and guide the manipulator 220 to move accurately.

[0078] Optionally, in some embodiments, the gripping device 200 further includes a second guide portion 230, the second guide portion 230 is disposed on the base 210, and the manipulator 220 is connected to the second guide portion 230 and can move along the second guide portion 230. By providing the second guide portion 230, the manipulator 220 can move on the second guide portion 230, thereby increasing the moving space of the manipulator 220 and improving the efficiency of the gripping device 200.

[0079] Please also read Figures 10 to 13 In some embodiments, the transfer device 300 includes a transfer platform 310 and a material transfer device 320. The transfer platform 310 is disposed on one side of the gripping device 200 and is used to carry the material transfer device 320.
