The automatic loading tray 10 of the special-shaped substrate 20 is used to carry the special-shaped substrate 20. The plurality of positioning members 12 are arranged on a side surface of the tray body 11, and a clamping portion 121 is provided at one end of the positioning member 12. The clamping portion 121 is used to clamp the special-shaped substrate 20 along a first preset direction F1, and the first preset direction F1 is parallel to a side surface of the tray body 11. The clamping portion 121 includes a clamping surface 123, and the clamping surface 123 is in contact with the outer surface of the special-shaped substrate 20. The surface of the detachable alignment plate 13 is perpendicular to the second preset direction F2. The detachable alignment plate 13 is used to abut one end of the plurality of special-shaped substrates 20 positioned by the plurality of positioning members 12 to align the plurality of special-shaped substrates 20. Among them, the first preset direction F1 and the second preset direction F2 are different. When the special-shaped substrate 20 is placed on the positioning member 12, the clamping surface 123 is in contact with the outer surface of the special-shaped substrate 20, thereby limiting the movement of the special-shaped substrate 20 in the direction perpendicular to the clamping surface 123. At the same time, the detachable alignment plate 13 abuts from the direction perpendicular to the clamping surface 123 to prevent the special-shaped substrate 20 from moving in the direction parallel to the clamping surface 123, thereby enabling the special-shaped substrate 20 to be neatly arranged on the automatic loading tray 10. During loading, the detachable alignment plate 13 can be used as a reference, the clamping surface can be used as a guide, and other automated equipment can be used to quickly align multiple special-shaped substrates, thereby improving loading efficiency. Specifically, the first preset direction F1 and the second preset direction F2 are perpendicular, and the first preset direction F1 and the second preset direction F2 are both parallel to a side surface of the tray body 11.

[0047] In another specific embodiment, the special-shaped substrate 20 passes through at least two positioning members 12, and at least two positioning members 12 position one special-shaped substrate 20. At least three positioning members 12 are used for each product, and the lower surface of the positioning member 12 is groove-shaped, which is convenient for cooperating with the boss 117 of the material tray for positioning.
