[0048] The present application relates to a PCBA detection device, which is explained in detail below through specific implementation methods.

[0049] A PCBA detection device, comprising:

[0050] A base 1, a transporting part 3, a loading and unloading part 2, a clamping part 5 arranged on the base 1, and a detection part 4 located at a side of the clamping part 5;

[0051] The clamping portion 5 comprises:

[0052] A clamping frame 51 is installed on the base 1;

[0053] The clamping members are designed in two groups, which are respectively located at the two ends of the clamping frame 51, and a clamping linear motion mechanism 52 is provided between any group of the clamping members and the clamping frame 51;

[0054] Each set of clamping members includes a rotating motor 53 and a clamping head 54 connected to the output end of the rotating motor 53;

[0055] The clamping head 54 is provided with a notch, a clamping plate 541 is symmetrically arranged in the notch, a plurality of grooves are provided in the clamping plate 541, and spring buckles 542 with a predetermined arc are arranged in the grooves.

[0056] The utility model completes the fixing work of the PCBA by designing the clamping part 5, and the spring buckle 542 completes the fixing of the PCBA. At the same time, the rotating motor 53 drives the clamping head 54 to rotate to complete the flipping work. Then, during the flipping process, the detection part 4 completes the comprehensive detection work of the PCBA.

[0057] Compared with the traditional cylinder or motor driven clamping arm, the spring buckle 542 is not easy to damage the PCBA, and the flipping operation is realized by rotating the motor 53.

[0058] In order to increase the protection effect, a protective layer can be designed on the surface of the spring buckle 542 to protect the PCBA, and a soft material such as sponge rubber can be selected.

[0059] The detection unit 4 includes two groups of detection units symmetrically arranged on the side of the clamping frame 51, and each group of detection units includes:

[0060] A detection frame 41 is installed on the base 1;

[0061] The visual sensor 42 is installed on the detection frame 41 and is located on the side of the detection frame 41 close to the clamping frame 51;

[0062] A fill light linear motion mechanism 43 is installed on the detection frame 41;

[0063] The fill light frame 44 is connected to the fill light linear motion mechanism 43 , and a fill light 45 is disposed on the fill light frame 44 .

[0064] The transport part 3 includes two sets of transport belts symmetrically arranged along the clamping frame 51, which are a feeding belt and a discharging belt respectively;

[0065] The moving belt is a prior art and can be selected from material conveying belts.

[0066] The loading and unloading part 2 includes a three-axis suction cup manipulator located between two sets of conveyor belts;

[0067] The three-axis suction cup manipulator is a prior art and can be selected in the art, and can include a three-axis manipulator and a vacuum suction cup connected to the three-axis manipulator;

[0068] The three-axis manipulator is composed of three interconnected linear mechanisms arranged in three directions. The linear motion mechanism has the same structure as the linear motion unit. The three directions are horizontal, vertical and vertical directions.

[0069] A vacuum suction cup and a connecting frame for connecting the vacuum suction cup and the linear mechanism in the vertical direction are arranged on the linear mechanism in the vertical direction.

[0070] The clamping linear motion mechanism 52 and the fill light linear motion mechanism 43 are two groups of linear motion units with the same structure, and each group of linear motion units includes:

[0071] Linear motion frame;

[0072] A linear motion motor is mounted on the end of the linear motion frame;

[0073] A linear motion screw rod is arranged on the linear motion frame and connected to the output end of the linear motion motor;

[0074] The linear motion slide plate is sleeved on the linear motion screw rod and slidably matched along the linear motion frame.

[0075] When the linear motion unit is working, the linear motion motor drives the linear motion screw to rotate, which in turn drives the linear motion slide to slide along the linear motion frame, which in turn drives the rotating motor 53 or the fill light frame 44 to move, thereby completing the adjustment of the spacing between the two groups of clamping heads 54 and the adjustment of the fill light irradiation distance.

[0076] The linear motion frame and the linear motion slide in the clamping linear motion mechanism 52 are respectively connected to the clamping frame 51 and the rotary motor 53 of any one group of clamping parts, and the rotary motor 53 of another group of clamping parts is connected to the clamping frame 51.

[0077] The linear motion frame and the linear motion slide plate in the fill light linear motion mechanism 43 are connected to the detection frame 41 and the fill light frame 44 respectively.

[0078] A pull-back spring connecting the two ends of the spring buckle 542 is arranged in the groove, or a return spring abutting against the spring buckle 542 is arranged in the groove, so as to increase the elastic force of the spring buckle 542 .

[0079] Working principle description: During the inspection, the three-axis suction cup manipulator sucks the PCBA placed on the feeding belt to the top of the clamping part 5. At this time, the position of the clamping head 54 is adjusted by the rotating motor 53 so that the notch and the PCBA are in a horizontal direction. The distance between the two groups of clamping heads 54 is adjusted by the clamping linear motion mechanism 52 so that they reach a suitable position. After the adjustment is completed, the three-axis suction cup manipulator drives the PCBA to move, and the PCBA slides in from the sides of the two groups of clamping heads 54. After sliding in, it is fixed by the elastic force of the spring buckle 542;

[0080] After the PCBA is fixed, the corresponding clamping head 54 is driven by the selection motor to rotate to complete the flipping of the PCBA. During the flipping process, the fill light 45 is used to fill the PCBA with light, which facilitates the visual sensor 42 to complete the inspection of the PCBA. After the PCBA is flipped for one circle, the three-axis suction cup robot absorbs the PCBA, slides out from the side of the clamping head 54, and is placed on the discharge belt to complete the inspection.
