Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of display panels, and in particular to an FFC adsorption and plugging fixture and a display panel detection device. Background Art

[0002] In the display panel testing industry, it is critical to achieve connectivity between the display panel and the piano cover connector. Current technical solutions involve multiple components and mechanisms to ensure the normal operation of the connector and the effective conduct of the test.

[0003] Specifically, the connection involves chip-on-film (COF), printed circuit board (PCB) and piano cover connectors. These connectors include a connector body, a flap rotatably connected to the piano cover body, and a metal contact disposed on the connector body. One end of the metal contact extends out of the connector body for electrical connection with the PCB, while the other end is located on the upper surface of the connector body for electrical connection with the test pressure head.

[0004] In order to achieve the connection between the display panel and the piano cover connector, a series of components and mechanisms are usually used, including a bracket, a test component, an opening and closing cover mechanism and an image acquisition mechanism. Among them, the bracket can slide back and forth in a specific direction, and the test component is connected to the bracket for electrical connection with the piano cover connector. The opening and closing cover mechanism is located above the bracket and is used to open or close the flip cover of the piano cover connector. The image acquisition mechanism is set on the bracket to collect the characteristic point position image of the connector.

[0005] The cover opening and closing mechanism is composed of a cover opening member, a first driving member and a cover closing assembly. The cover opening member is connected to the bracket and is used to open the flip cover; the first driving member is arranged on the bracket; the cover closing assembly is composed of a connecting plate and the cover closing member, and is driven by the first driving member to move in opposite directions to close the flip cover.

[0006] Although the current technical solution can complete the flip-cover plug-in connection of the display panel after the ordinary binding process, there are difficulties in adsorption and plugging for the flexible flat cable (FFC) with a reinforcement plate. Specifically, the height difference between the reinforcement part and the plug-in part and the deformation at the junction will affect the consistency of the adsorption position, and thus affect the success rate of plugging. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a special type of FFC adsorption and plug-in fixture to solve the problem that the current technology cannot completely adsorb the reinforcement part, so as to achieve plug-in.

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0026] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the utility model discloses an FFC adsorption plug-in fixture, which aims to solve the problem of difficulty in adsorbing the reinforcement part of the piano cover connector in the prior art. The structure of the utility model is as follows:

The mounting seat 1 is provided with a boss 3 extending toward the piano cover connector 2, and its width is greater than the width of the piano cover connector 2 to ensure a stable support. The width of the boss 3 is less than the width of the piano cover connector 2 to facilitate the insertion of the connector.

[0028] Adsorption unit: The adsorption unit 4 is located on the boss 3 and is used to adsorb the FFC. Preferably, the adsorption unit 4 uses a vacuum suction cup to ensure firm adsorption.

[0029] FFC structure: FFC includes a plug-in portion 5 and a reinforcement portion 6 next to it.

[0030] Adsorption position: The adsorption unit 4 is located above the reinforcement part 6 and does not intersect with the plug-in part 5 to ensure the stability and accuracy of adsorption.

When the material is plugged in after the blue reinforced part is adsorbed, the consistency of the material has little effect on the success rate of plugging in, and the blue reinforced part has good flatness, thereby improving the success rate of plugging in.

[0033] The utility model makes the FFC adsorption and plugging fixture stable, reliable and easy to operate, can effectively solve the problems in the prior art, and realizes the adsorption and plugging of special types of FFCs.
