[0025] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0026] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the pen-shaped cylinder ZR axis placement head includes a base plate 1, which provides a stable base for the entire device. All other components are fixed or connected to the outside of the base plate 1. The upper side of the base plate 1 is fixedly connected to a support plate 2, which provides support for the pen-shaped cylinder 3 to ensure the stability of the entire placement head. A linear module 4 is installed on the front side of the support plate 2. The linear module 4 is responsible for providing precise linear motion guidance and is a key component of the Z-axis movement. A pen-shaped cylinder 3 is installed on the upper side of the support plate 2. The pen-shaped cylinder 3 achieves precise vertical position adjustment by pushing the motor bracket 8 up and down along the slide rail. The output end of the pen-shaped cylinder 3 is fixedly connected to the motor bracket 8. A stepper motor 9 is installed on the upper front side of the motor bracket 8. The stepper motor 9 is installed on the motor bracket 8 and is responsible for the rotation control of the R axis. The output end of the stepper motor 9 is fixedly connected to a copper sleeve 7, and a suction nozzle 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the copper sleeve 7. The copper sleeve 7 directly fixes the suction nozzle 6 and controls the precise control. The pick-up and placement direction of the suction nozzle 6 is adjusted by controlling the rotation angle. A connecting sleeve 11 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the stepper motor 9. A tracheal rotary joint 13 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the connecting sleeve 11. The connecting sleeve 11 is installed on the upper side of the stepper motor 9. This design allows the tracheal rotary joint 13 to rotate freely without affecting the operation of the cylinder. The addition of the tracheal rotary joint 13 reduces the distortion and wear of the pipeline, improves the reliability and maintenance cycle of the system, and provides suction to the suction nozzle 6 through the tracheal rotary joint 13 to suck the workpiece. A sensor sheet 12 is fixedly connected between the connecting sleeve 11 and the tracheal rotary joint 13. The sensor sheet 12 provides instructions for the photoelectric limit switch 10 to open or close the photoelectric limit switch 10. A photoelectric limit switch 10 is fixedly connected to the front side of the motor bracket 8. The photoelectric limit switch 10 is installed on the front side of the motor bracket 8. It has high sensitivity and is used to monitor and feedback the rotation angle of the stepper motor 9.

[0027] A polyurethane stopper 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the front side of the base plate 1. The diameter of the polyurethane stopper 5 is larger than the bottom of the rear side of the motor bracket 8, providing a blocking effect for the motor bracket 8, ensuring that the motor bracket 8 will not separate from the linear module 4 during the sliding process, thereby protecting the motor bracket 8.

[0028] The linear module 4 includes a slide rail and a slider. The bottom surface of the slide rail is fixedly connected to the surface of the base plate 1, and the surface of the slider is fixedly connected to the motor bracket 8. The motor bracket 8 is slidably connected to the base plate 1 through the linear module 4 and the pen-shaped cylinder 3. It is responsible for providing precise linear motion guidance and is a key component of the Z-axis motion.

[0029] A groove is provided on the front side of the photoelectric limit switch 10 , and the outer side of the sensing piece 12 is arranged inside the groove. The sensing piece 12 is arranged in the groove and interacts with the limit switch to ensure accurate angle measurement.

[0030] A spring is provided at the bottom of the suction nozzle 6. The suction nozzle 6 is designed to be replaceable and can adapt to electronic components of different shapes and sizes. A spring is provided at the bottom of the suction nozzle 6 to adapt to electronic components of different heights, thereby improving the adaptability and flexibility of the equipment. The suction nozzle 6 is replaceable and can be replaced according to different component types and sizes, thereby increasing the versatility of the equipment.

[0031] The photoelectric limit switch 10 has high sensitivity and can accurately measure and feed back the rotation angle data of the stepper motor 9, ensuring the accuracy of the measurement, ensuring that the component can be accurately placed in the predetermined position, and feeding back erroneous data.

[0032] It should be noted that the present invention is a pen-shaped cylinder ZR axis placement head. First, R axis control is performed: the control system sends a signal to the stepper motor 9 to rotate the stepper motor 9, instructing it to rotate to a preset specific angle. During the rotation of the stepper motor 9, the photoelectric limit switch 10 is used to sense between the sensor sheet 12. The system can ensure that the stepper motor 9 stops at a precise position, minimize the angle error, and help to correctly place the components. When processing tiny or highly sensitive electronic components, precise control of the rotation angle ensures that the suction nozzle 6 can be aligned with the correct direction of the component to be picked up or placed, thereby achieving precise operation. Secondly, Z axis control is performed. Control: The movement of the Z-axis is controlled by the pen-shaped cylinder 3, which drives the motor bracket 8 and the suction nozzle 6 to move vertically by receiving the air intake and air shut-off signals from the PLC. When the R-axis rotates into position, the pen-shaped cylinder 3 takes in air, causing the motor bracket 8 and the suction nozzle 6 to move downward until they touch the surface of the component. After reaching the target position, the system again fine-tunes the angle of the suction nozzle 6 by rotating the stepper motor 9 to ensure that the component can be accurately placed in the predetermined position. After the component is correctly placed, the pen-shaped cylinder 3 releases air, causing the motor bracket 8 and the suction nozzle 6 to move upward a little until the suction nozzle 6 reaches the specified position. The suction nozzle 6 releases the component according to the control system instructions to complete the assembly operation.
