[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-4 , an automatic pick-and-place mechanism, comprising a mobile platform 1, an X-axis module 4, a Z-axis module 5, a magnetic module 6, an electric control box and a template, characterized in that a plurality of groups of guide rollers 2 are installed in the mobile platform 1, and the plurality of groups of guide rollers 2 are arranged at equal intervals, the template is placed above the guide rollers 2, the electric control box is installed on the side wall of the mobile platform 1, a frame 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mobile platform 1, the X-axis module 4 is installed on the frame 3, the Z-axis module 5 is installed on the X-axis module 4, the Z-axis module 5 is integrated by a gear rack module, the magnetic module 6 is installed at the end of the Z-axis module 5, a plurality of groups of linear guide pillars 11 are installed on the outer wall of the magnetic module 6, and a plurality of groups of linear guide The columns 11 are symmetrically arranged in pairs, and the ends of the linear guide columns 11 on the left and right sides are fixedly connected with two groups of electromagnets 9, and the outer walls of the linear guide columns 11 are sleeved with springs 12, and the two ends of the springs 12 are respectively fixedly connected to the magnetic suction module 6 and the electromagnet 9, and a magnetic device for increasing the magnetic force is installed in the electromagnet 9; the installation of the linear guide columns 11 makes the movement of the magnetic suction module 6 more stable and controlled, and at the same time provides a precise trajectory for the movement of the electromagnet 9, and the springs 12 can absorb and buffer the vibration and impact force generated during the operation through elastic deformation, reduce the amplitude of the vibration transmitted to the template, and thus reduce the displacement deviation of the template.

[0023] The magnetic device includes an iron plate 10 for magnetic attraction embedded in the electromagnet 9, and the lower end surface of the iron plate 10 for magnetic attraction is in a horizontal state with the lower end surface of the electromagnet 9; the iron plate 10 for magnetic attraction can enhance the electromagnetic adsorption force, ensuring that the template can be firmly adsorbed when taking and placing heavy templates, reducing displacement deviations caused by equipment vibration or external forces.

[0024] Multiple groups of lateral push adjustment cylinders 7 are installed on both end faces of the mobile platform 1. The multiple groups of lateral push adjustment cylinders 7 are symmetrically arranged in pairs, and their telescopic ends are in contact with the side wall of the template. Two groups of blocking cylinders 8 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the frame 3. The two groups of blocking cylinders 8 are located on the center line of the mobile platform 1, and the telescopic ends of the two groups of blocking cylinders 8 are in contact with the outer wall of the template. The guide roller 2 is a rotatable roller device. The axis of the roller device is parallel to the longitudinal center line of the mobile platform 1, and the upper surface of the guide roller 2 is provided with an anti-skid layer to prevent the template from sliding during the placement process. The telescopic ends of the lateral push adjustment cylinders 7 and the blocking cylinders 8 are installed with rubber pads; the lateral push adjustment cylinders 7 can be fine-tuned during the movement and positioning of the template to ensure that the template is accurately aligned and fixed. The blocking cylinder 8 provides additional support and fixing functions, especially when the template is moving, which can effectively prevent lateral displacement. The setting of the blocking cylinder further improves the stability of the equipment.

[0025] During specific use: the template enters the mobile platform 1 of the automatic pick-and-place mechanism through an external conveying system and is placed on multiple sets of guide rollers 2. The guide rollers 2 drive it to slide to the specified position, and the lateral push adjustment cylinders 7 at both ends of the mobile platform 1 start to work. The telescopic ends of the lateral push adjustment cylinders 7 contact with the side walls of the template, and the position of the template is fine-tuned to ensure the precise alignment of the template. Subsequently, the two sets of blocking cylinders 8 are started, and the telescopic ends contact with the outer walls of the template sides to provide additional support and fixation for the template. The blocking cylinders 8 can prevent the template from lateral displacement in subsequent vertical movements, thereby further enhancing the overall stability.

[0026] Subsequently, the X-axis module 4 located on the frame 3 and the Z-axis module 5 installed thereon start to operate. The Z-axis module 5 is integrated through the gear rack module to form a precise vertical motion trajectory, so that the magnetic module 6 gradually approaches the template surface. When the magnetic module 6 approaches the template, the electromagnet 9 installed thereon is activated, and the embedded iron plate 10 for increasing magnetic attraction enhances the magnetic force to ensure that the template is firmly adsorbed. At this time, the linear guide column 11 ensures the movement stability of the magnetic module 6, and the external spring 12 absorbs the vibration and impact force generated during the operation through elastic deformation, reduces the amplitude of the vibration transmitted to the template, and avoids displacement deviation of the template. The Z-axis module 5 starts to move in the opposite direction and lifts the template vertically. The combination of the linear guide column 11 and the spring 12 can greatly reduce the vibration generated.

[0027] After the template is lifted to a predetermined height, the X-axis module 4 starts, driving the Z-axis module 5 and the magnetic module 6 to move horizontally to the target position. When the template moves above the target position, the Z-axis module 5 starts again, gradually lowering the template until it is accurately placed on the designated work station. At this time, the electromagnet 9 is powered off, and the magnetic module 6 releases the template to ensure that it is placed stably on the target position.

[0028] The above are only preferred specific implementation methods of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical scheme and utility model concept of the utility model, should be covered by the protection scope of the utility model.
