Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of AOI testing tooling, in particular to an AOI testing tooling used for workpiece appearance detection. Background Art

[0002] AOI testing, or automatic optical inspection, is a testing technology based on optical principles. It is used to detect common defects encountered in PCB boards during welding production. The test fixture is an important part of the automatic optical inspection equipment. It is used to fix and support the object to be tested during the test process to ensure the accuracy and stability of the test. In general, the AOI test fixture is an indispensable part of the automatic optical inspection equipment. It plays a vital role in ensuring the accuracy and stability of the test.

[0003] Existing PCB boards usually have two sides, each of which may be installed with electronic components or wiring, so both sides need to be tested. If the test tooling does not support flipping operations, only one side of the PCB board can be tested, and the other side cannot be effectively tested, so that a comprehensive test cannot be performed, which may cause some defects or faults to be missed, thereby affecting the overall quality of the product.

[0004] For example, a testing tool for a switching power supply PCB board disclosed in announcement number CN202021703541.8 places the PCB board that needs to be inspected into the storage tank 2 for inspection, but only the upper surface of the PCB board can be inspected. In order to inspect the other side of the PCB board, the tester may need to manually take the PCB board out of the storage tank 2, flip it over and then replace it. This process is not only time-consuming, but also reduces the continuity of the overall testing process, thereby reducing the overall inspection efficiency.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to invent an AOI test fixture for workpiece appearance inspection to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0011] Preferably, the output end of the second bevel gear is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft and passes through the vertical plate. The rotating shaft and the vertical plate are rotationally connected. The output end of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to a turntable, so that the rotating shaft can drive the turntable to rotate 360 ​​degrees.

[0012] Preferably, a sliding rod is fixedly connected to one side of the turntable close to the vertical plate, a sliding groove is provided at the contact position between the vertical plate and the sliding rod, the sliding rod and the sliding groove are slidably connected, and the sliding groove is designed in a circular ring structure, so that the sliding rod and the sliding groove can ensure the stability of the pneumatic clamp when driving the PCB board to rotate and turn over.

[0016] 1. Through the setting of the rotary motor, the rotary motor can drive the pneumatic gripper to rotate 360 ​​degrees, so that the pneumatic gripper can automatically turn over when fixing the workpiece.

[0017] 2. Through the setting of the pneumatic gripper, the pneumatic gripper can quickly and accurately clamp and release the PCB board, and the anti-skid pad set on the surface of the pneumatic gripper can increase the friction coefficient between the pneumatic gripper and the PCB board, making the clamping more secure, which helps prevent the PCB board from sliding or falling off due to vibration or external force during testing or flipping, ensuring the accuracy and safety of the test. At the same time, it can provide a buffer during the clamping process, reduce the direct pressure of the pneumatic gripper on the surface of the PCB board, and avoid scratches or crushing.
