DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0026] like Figure 1-Figure 9As shown, a loading and unloading robot includes a robot truss 21 and at least one group of suction plate mechanisms 22, each group of the suction plate mechanisms 22 is provided with a slide groove 223 on the top and side, the slide groove 223 provided on the top of the suction plate mechanism 22 is connected to the robot truss 21 through a truss structure connection assembly 23, the slide groove 223 provided on the top of the suction plate mechanism 22 is located at both ends and is connected to a sheet separation robot 224 through the truss structure connection assembly 23, and the slide groove 223 provided on the side of the suction plate mechanism 22 is connected to a plurality of grasping robots 225 through the truss structure connection assembly 23.

[0028] In this embodiment, the manipulator truss 21 includes a connecting arm 211 and a truss connecting plate 212 arranged below the connecting arm 211 and connected to the connecting arm 211, and a motion connecting component 214 is connected below the truss connecting plate 212 through at least one transverse connecting bar 213, and at least one longitudinal connecting bar 215 is connected below the motion connecting component 214 through a truss structure connecting component 23, and a plurality of pressure plate manipulators 216 are connected to the side of the longitudinal connecting bar 215 through the truss structure connecting component 23.

[0029] In this embodiment, at least one of the transverse connecting strips 213 is provided with an air storage chamber therein.

[0030] In this embodiment, the motion connection assembly 214 includes a motion connection plate 2144 and a connecting rod 2141 arranged below the motion connection plate 2144, and a compression spring 2142 is sleeved on the connecting rod 2141. The end of the connecting rod 2141 away from the motion connection plate 2144 is connected to the truss structure connection assembly 23 through a transition connection plate 2143, and the truss structure connection assembly 23 is connected to the longitudinal connecting bar 215.

[0031] In this embodiment, the truss structure connection assembly 23 includes a connection bolt 231 and a connection block 232 connected to the connection bolt 231 .

[0032] In this embodiment, the pressure plate manipulator 216 includes a pressure plate cylinder 2161 and a pressure plate piston rod 2162 that moves up and down along the pressure plate cylinder 2161 . A PCB pressure plate 2163 is provided at one end of the pressure plate piston rod 2162 away from the pressure plate cylinder 2161 .

[0033] In this embodiment, the sheet separation robot 224 includes a sheet separation cylinder 2241 and a sheet separation piston rod 2242 that moves up and down along the sheet separation cylinder 2241 . A sheet separation nozzle 2243 is provided at one end of the sheet separation piston rod 2242 away from the sheet separation cylinder 2241 .

[0034] In this embodiment, the grabbing robot 225 includes a grabbing cylinder 2251, and a grabbing piston 2252 and a clamping piston 2253 that move up and down along the grabbing cylinder 2251 are respectively provided at the bottom of the grabbing cylinder 2251. A grabbing plate rotating assembly 2254 is provided inside the grabbing cylinder 2251. The grabbing plate rotating assembly 2254 is connected to the grabbing piston 2252 and drives the grabbing piston 2252 to rotate. A grabbing plate clamp 2255 is provided at the bottom of the grabbing piston 2252.

[0035] In this embodiment, the grab plate rotating assembly 2254 includes a grab plate rotating piston 22541 and a grab plate guide rod 22542 connected to the grab plate rotating piston 22541 , and the grab plate guide rod 22542 is connected to the grab piston 2252 .

[0036] When the loading and unloading robot is working, the robot truss 21 is connected to the motion drive mechanism through the connecting arm 211 and moves accordingly. The truss connecting plate 212, the transverse connecting bar 213 and the longitudinal connecting bar 215 constitute the basic structure of the robot truss 21. The connecting rod 2141 and the compression spring 2142 of the motion connection component 214 are used together, and the connection bolt 231 of the truss structure connection component 23 is set. The leveling of the entire robot truss 21 can be achieved through the elastic force of the compression spring 2142 and the connection bolt 231, ensuring that the entire robot truss 21 is in a relatively balanced state. When the suction plate mechanism 22 sucks the PCB sheet, the suction plate mechanism 22 is in parallel contact with the surface of the PCB sheet to achieve a better suction effect. In order to ensure that the loading and unloading robot works better, a camera or other viewing angle positioning mechanism can be set to achieve more accurate positioning.

[0037] The board suction mechanism 22 is used to suck the PCB sheet when assembling the PCB sheet and the bakelite base; when the suction head 222 contacts the surface of the PCB sheet, if the surface of the PCB sheet has no holes, negative pressure is generated on the plane of the PCB sheet without holes to suck the PCB sheet; if the surface of the PCB sheet has holes, the suction head 222 contacts the surface of the PCB sheet, the suction head 222 closes the vacuum and does not generate negative pressure. To achieve a better board suction effect, the suction heads 222 of the board suction mechanism 22 can be set in double rows or three rows.

[0038] The setting of the air storage chamber can store a certain amount of compressed air inside it, providing compressed air for the pressing plate robot 216, the sheet separation robot 224 and the grasping robot 225 without the need for a separate external air source, which is more convenient to use.

[0039] The pressing plate manipulator 216 is used to press the PCB sheet before processing. When working, compressed air is introduced. Under the driving action of the compressed air, the pressing plate piston rod 2162 moves up and down, driving the PCB pressing plate 2163 to move up and down. When moving downward, the PCB pressing plate 2163 presses the PCB sheet, and when moving upward, the PCB pressing plate 2163 releases the PCB sheet. In this way, the up and down movement can realize the pressing and loosening of the PCB sheet during the processing process.

[0040] The sheet separation manipulator 224 is used to separate the PCB sheets that are adsorbed together when assembling the PCB sheets and the bakelite base; when working, compressed air is introduced, and under the action of the compressed air, the sheet separation suction nozzle 2243 contacts the surface of the PCB sheet, and at the same time generates negative pressure to tightly adsorb the PCB sheet. Since the PCB sheets are not stacked in a single piece, a vacuum will be generated between the two PCB sheets during the stacking process of the PCB sheets, thereby adsorbing the two PCB sheets together; when grabbing the board, there will be a phenomenon that grabbing one PCB sheet will bring up the second PCB sheet, and the second sheet will fall off naturally, causing damage to the PCB sheet. Therefore, under the driving action of compressed air, the sheet separation piston rod 2242 moves up and down, shaking the PCB sheet, forcing the two sheets to loosen naturally.

[0041] Several gripping manipulators 225 are provided for gripping assembled PCB sheets and bakelite board bases and processed PCB sheets and bakelite board bases. During operation, compressed air is introduced, and under the action of the compressed air, the gripping piston 2252 moves downward, and the gripping plate rotating piston 22541 and the gripping plate guide rod 22542 rotate, driving the gripping piston 2252 to rotate, thereby driving the gripping plate clamping piece 2255 to rotate to a specified angle. In order to better grip the PCB sheets and bakelite board bases, the gripping plate clamping pieces 2255 of several gripping manipulators 225 extend and rotate to the bottom of the PCB sheets and bakelite board bases, and at the same time, the PCB sheets and bakelite board bases are pulled up. At the same time, in order to achieve a better clamping effect, the clamping plate piston 2253 moves downward under the action of compressed air, pressing the PCB sheets and bakelite board bases, forming a clamping space between the gripping plate clamping piece 2255 and the gripping plate clamping piece 2255, and at the same time clamping the PCB sheets and bakelite board bases.

[0042] The above-mentioned embodiments only express the specific implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the utility model. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
