Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of camera module assembly, and particularly to a conveying device and a production equipment. Background Art

[0002] In the automated assembly process of optical lenses and image sensors (sensors), precise and efficient material transfer and testing are key steps. In the traditional process, the image sensor is automatically fed from the initial track carrier board to an input buffer tray. This process is usually completed by a precise automated robotic arm (such as the Input Pick Arm, abbreviated as IPA) to ensure the accurate placement of the image sensor. Subsequently, another robotic arm (such as the Sensor Pick Arm, abbreviated as SPA) picks up the image sensor from the buffer tray and places it on a dedicated Sensor Test Socket (SUT) for performance testing. If the sensor test fails, the SPA will remove it from the SUT and directly place it on a specific reject tray, which serves as a temporary storage area for non-conforming products.

[0003] However, the current reject process has deficiencies in subsequent processing. Specifically, when the sensor fails the test on the SUT and is thrown onto the reject tray, manual intervention is required. Tools such as tweezers are used to manually remove these non-conforming sensors from the reject tray and place them back at a specific position in the buffer tray for secondary testing or processing. This process not only increases labor costs but also introduces human factors, increasing the risk of sensor contamination. Human factors such as hand grease and dust contamination can affect the overall quality and yield of the product. Summary of the Utility Model

[0037] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the following will describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in this application without creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0038] The following disclosure provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing different structures of the present invention. To simplify the disclosure of the present invention, components and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples and are not intended to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention may repeat reference numerals and / or letters in different examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplification and clarity and does not itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed.

[0039] For ease of description, spatially relative relationship terms may be used in the text to describe the relative positional relationship or movement of one element or feature shown in the figure with respect to another element or feature. These relative relationship terms such as "inside", "outside", "inner side", "outer side", "below", "beneath", "above", "upper", "front", "rear", etc. This spatially relative relationship term is intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figure. For example, if the device in the figure undergoes a position flip or attitude change or movement state change, then these directional indications will change accordingly. For example, an element described as "below" or "beneath" another element or feature will then be oriented as "above" or "on top of" another element or feature. Therefore, the exemplary term "below" can include both upward and downward orientations. The device may be oriented otherwise (rotated 90 degrees or in other directions) and the spatially relative relationship descriptors used in the text are interpreted accordingly.

[0040] To solve the technical problem of dirt on the photosensitive element in the related art, the present application proposes a conveying device. The photosensitive element is installed by a carrier, the carrier is supported and fixed by a support member, and the support member is conveyed by a conveying part, realizing a complete conveying mechanism, integrating an automated system, and facilitating the testing of the photosensitive element. When the test result is a qualified product, it is assembled; when the test result is an unqualified product, the support member is conveyed to the rejection track, so as to transplant the carrier to the feeding track, eliminating the manual transplanting link, avoiding the adverse effects brought by manual operation, improving production efficiency and product quality, and optimizing the processing flow of failed photosensitive chips. Moreover, the carrier can realize the automatic recycling and re-investment mechanism of unqualified products, thereby completely or greatly reducing manual intervention, improving the production environment, and effectively solving the problem of dirt on the photosensitive element, providing strong support for the efficient and high-quality assembly of optical lenses and photosensitive chips.

[0041] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figure 1-Figure 5 shown, a conveying device is used to convey a photosensitive element into a corresponding production process. Among them, the photosensitive element is, for example, a photosensitive chip, and the photosensitive chip is used in a camera module to achieve high-quality imaging of the camera module and meet the needs of users.

[0042] The conveying device includes a carrier 1, a support member 2, and a conveying part, realizing an automated production device, achieving rejection and accurate return on the production device, improving production efficiency, and ensuring stability and reliability during the production process.

[0043] The carrier 1 can be made of, for example, high-strength and corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy material, making it have good structural rigidity and load-bearing capacity. Among them, the carrier 1 includes a carrier body 11, a first positioning part 12, and a plurality of mounting parts 13. The carrier body 11 is designed as a flat plate, facilitating the installation of various components and the loading of materials.

[0044] The first positioning part 12 is fixedly connected to the carrier body 11. The first positioning part 12 can be arranged close to the edge of the carrier body 11. The first positioning part 12 is, for example, in the form of a precision-machined positioning through-hole, used for precise docking with the second positioning part 22 of the support member 2 to ensure a stable connection between the carrier 1 and the support member 2.

[0045] A plurality of mounting parts 13 are along the first direction (refer to Figure 1 the X-axis shown) and the second direction (refer to Figure 1They are arranged at intervals along the Y-axis (as shown), and the mounting part 13 is configured to mount the photosensitive element, facilitating the next process for the photosensitive element, such as testing and assembling. Among them, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other. The first direction is, for example, the length direction of the carrier 1, and the second direction is, for example, the width direction of the carrier 1, subject to the actual situation. The length of the carrier 1 is, for example, but not limited to, 146 mm, and the width of the carrier 1 is, for example, but not limited to, 63 mm to fit the size of the support member 2.

[0046] The support member 2 can, for example, adopt a sturdy steel structure to facilitate the support and transfer of the carrier 1. Among them, the support member 2 includes a support body 21 and a second positioning portion 22. The support body 21 is positioned and connected to the first positioning portion 12 of the carrier body 11 through the second positioning portion 22. The second positioning portion 22, for example, includes a positioning post 221 that matches the first positioning portion 12, and realizes a fast and stable connection with the carrier 1 through precise mechanical cooperation. When the support member 2 moves to the designated position, the carrier 1 is installed on the support member 2, and the second positioning portion 22 automatically aligns and locks with the first positioning portion 12, realizing a fast and stable connection between the carrier 1 and the support member 2.

[0047] The support member 2 is on the conveying portion, and is driven by the conveying portion to move, so that the support member 2 can be sent to the corresponding process. For example, in the testing and assembling processes, if the test result of the photosensitive element is qualified, it enters the assembling track for assembly. If the test result of the photosensitive element is unqualified, it is sent into the reject track, and the mechanical arm is used to remove the carrier 1, so that the carrier 1 can be separated from the support member 2 and sent into the feeding track. At this time, the carrier 1 carries the unqualified photosensitive element and is returned to the conveying portion by the feeding track, preparing for re-testing. Among them, the conveying portion, for example, adopts a chain system driven by a motor to convey the support member 2 carrying the carrier 1 from one process of the production equipment to another process. During the conveying process, the conveying portion can monitor the position and speed of the support member 2 in real time through sensors to ensure accurate and stable arrival at the target position.

[0048] In this embodiment, through the carrier 1, the support member 2, and an efficient conveying portion (not shown in the figure), a stable and reliable automated production equipment conveying system is constructed. This system not only improves the production efficiency and the accuracy of material transfer, but also reduces the need for manual intervention and production costs, providing strong support for the intelligent and automated upgrading of modern manufacturing. Moreover, the unqualified photosensitive elements are directly sent into the feeding track for re-testing and confirmation, avoiding manual intervention in placement and canceling the manual movement relief, effectively solving the problem of soiling of the photosensitive elements caused by transfer and ensuring the cleanliness of the photosensitive elements.

[0049] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, the installation part 13 includes an installation groove 131 formed in the carrier body 11. The installation groove 131 penetrates through the carrier body 11 to form an open installation space, facilitating the insertion and positioning of the photosensitive element. The photosensitive element can be clamped in the installation groove 131 to ensure that the photosensitive element can be stably and accurately installed on the carrier body 11. Among them, the size of the installation groove 131 can be designed according to the specific specifications of the photosensitive element to ensure a tight fit between the two.

[0050] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-Figure 5 shown, the installation part 13 includes a plurality of bearing protrusions 132 provided on the carrier body 11. The plurality of bearing protrusions 132 are symmetrically arranged along the first direction on the inner wall of the groove of the installation groove 131, and the bearing protrusions 132 are configured to support the photosensitive element to prevent the photosensitive element from falling out of the installation groove 131. The plurality of bearing protrusions 132 are, for example, four, respectively arranged at the corners to support the corner ends of the photosensitive element and provide stable support for the photosensitive element. Among them, a silica gel layer can also be provided on the bearing protrusions 132 to wrap the hard bearing protrusions 132, so as to avoid scratching the photosensitive element while providing sufficient support force, and can also increase the friction force and improve the stability during installation to prevent the photosensitive element from deviating from the installation position, specifically subject to the actual situation.

[0051] It can be understood that the plurality of bearing protrusions 132 can also be symmetrically arranged along the second direction on the inner wall of the groove of the installation groove 131 to support the photosensitive element. The setting method and the function played are the same as those of the above-mentioned plurality of bearing protrusions 132 arranged along the first direction, and will not be repeated here.

[0052] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-Figure 5 shown, the installation part 13 includes a plurality of limit bodies 133 provided on the carrier body 11. The plurality of limit bodies 133 are symmetrically arranged along the first direction on the inner wall of the groove of the installation groove 131, and the limit bodies 133 are configured to limit the movement of the photosensitive element along the first direction. Among them, the material of the limit body 133 is the same as that of the carrier body 11, so as to facilitate integral molding, simplify the molding process and improve the structural stability. The size and shape of the limit body 133 are based on being able to fit the edge of the photosensitive element to effectively prevent the photosensitive element from sliding or shaking during operation.

[0053] It can be understood that the plurality of limit bodies 133 can also be symmetrically arranged along the second direction on the inner wall of the groove of the installation groove 131 to limit the photosensitive element. The setting method and the function played are the same as those of the above-mentioned plurality of limit bodies 133 arranged along the first direction, and will not be repeated here.

[0054] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-Figure 5As shown in the figure, in order to facilitate the precise installation and debugging of the photosensitive element and subsequent possible maintenance operations, the installation part 13 includes two first avoidance grooves 134 formed in the carrier body 11. The two first avoidance grooves 134 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the installation groove 131 along the second direction, and the installation groove 131 and the first avoidance groove 134 are communicated to avoid part of the structure of the photosensitive element, providing a force application point or a clamping space for the robotic arm. For example, the first avoidance groove 134 provides an additional operating space, enabling the clamping part of the robotic arm to approach the photosensitive element from the side and apply force to it to clamp the photosensitive element, thereby facilitating the robotic arm to remove or install the photosensitive element.

[0055] It should be noted that the above-mentioned first avoidance grooves 134 are not limited to being symmetrically arranged on both sides of the installation groove 131 along the second direction, and can also be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the installation groove 131 along the first direction, depending on the actual situation.

[0056] The installation part 13 proposed in this embodiment can provide a high-precision and high-stability installation effect for the photosensitive element. The photosensitive element is firmly fixed on the carrier body 11, avoiding its offset or dropping, and ensuring that the photosensitive element can be stably conveyed.

[0057] In some exemplary embodiments, as Figure 1-Figure 5 shown, a plurality of first avoidance notches 111 are provided on the circumferential side wall of the carrier body 11, providing an additional operating space so that the clamping part of the robotic arm can approach the carrier body 11 from the side and apply force to it. Among them, the plurality of first avoidance notches 111 are symmetrically arranged along the first direction, facilitating the robotic arm to clamp it and balancing the overall clamping force.

[0058] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-Figure 5 shown, chamfering is performed on the corner ends of the carrier body 11. During manual operation or automated processing, sharp corner ends may cause scratches or damage to the human body or equipment. The chamfered corner ends are smoother, reducing this risk and enhancing the adaptability and safety of the carrier body 11 in complex application environments. Moreover, chamfering or rounding is performed on all four corner ends of the carrier body 11, which can enhance the aesthetic appearance of the carrier body 11 and meet the aesthetic standards of modern industrial design.

[0059] In some exemplary embodiments, as Figure 1-Figure 5As shown in the figure, the support body 21 has a first surface 211 and a second surface 212 that are oppositely arranged. The first surface 211 is positioned and connected to the vehicle 1, and the second surface 212 is aligned and connected to the conveying part. The second positioning part 22 is arranged on the first surface 211 to facilitate precise positioning and connection with the first positioning part 12 of the carrier body 11. Among them, a second avoidance groove 213 is arranged on both sides of the first surface 211 along the first direction to avoid the vehicle 1, so that the lower part of the vehicle 1 is locally suspended, providing an operable space for it. For example, it is convenient for the robotic arm to clamp and pick up the vehicle 1.

[0060] The shapes and sizes of the second avoidance grooves 213 on both sides can be the same. The second avoidance groove 213 is, for example, strip-shaped, and does not occupy too much space of the support body 21, ensuring that it will not affect the strength of the support body 21. The width of the second avoidance groove 213 is, for example, but not limited to 5 mm, which neither destroys the overall strength of the vehicle 1 nor provides an operable space.

[0061] One of the second avoidance grooves 213 also provides an installation space for the second positioning part 22, optimizing the layout of the overall structure and avoiding unnecessary interference. Among them, the second positioning part 22, for example, includes a support platform 222 and a positioning post 221. The support platform 222 is arranged to support the carrier body 11, providing local support for the carrier body 11 to improve the stability of the carrier body 11. And the support platform 222 is embedded in one of the second avoidance grooves 213, not only stabilizing its own position but also providing a stable support foundation for the entire second positioning part 22. The positioning post 221 is arranged on the support platform 222, and its function is to be inserted into the positioning through hole on the carrier body 11, so as to realize the precise positioning of the carrier body 11 on the support body 21, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the carrier body 11 during transmission or processing.

[0062] A plurality of first alignment parts 214 are arranged on the second surface 212 of the support body 21. The conveying part includes a plurality of second alignment parts. The support body 21 is aligned and connected to the second alignment parts of the conveying part through the first alignment parts 214 to achieve precise docking.

[0063] The first alignment part 214 can include various forms of elements. For example, the first alignment part 214 includes a plurality of alignment holes and / or a plurality of alignment grooves, and the second alignment part includes a plurality of alignment protrusions, so as to perform flexible and precise alignment and insertion between the alignment protrusions on the conveying part and the alignment holes and / or alignment grooves.

[0064] In some examples, the first alignment portion 214 includes, for example, a first alignment groove 2141, a second alignment groove 2142, and a third alignment groove 2143 arranged in sequence along the first direction. The first alignment groove 2141 is a strip-shaped groove, the second alignment groove 2142 is a rectangular groove, the area of the second alignment groove 2142 is larger than that of the first alignment groove 2141, the second alignment groove 2142 is the main alignment area, and the first alignment groove 2141 is the secondary alignment area. The cooperation of the first alignment groove 2141 and the second alignment groove 2142 can not only improve the reliability during alignment but also enable quick installation, avoid reverse installation, etc., ensuring that the support body 21 can be accurately installed on the conveying portion, providing a solid foundation for subsequent transmission or processing operations, etc. The third alignment groove 2143 is, for example, a recessed groove, reserving space for other components or providing additional operating space for removing or placing the support body 21.

[0065] It can be understood that the shape of the alignment protrusion is adapted to the shape of the above-mentioned first alignment portion 214 to ensure that the support body 21 and the conveying portion can be accurately and correctly matched and installed, specifically subject to the actual situation.

[0066] In other examples, the first alignment portion 214 includes, for example, a first alignment groove 2141, a second alignment groove 2142, and a third alignment groove 2143 arranged in sequence along the first direction. Its setting method is the same as that in the above examples and will not be repeated here. The difference is that the first alignment portion 214 further includes, for example, a plurality of first alignment holes 2144 and a plurality of second alignment holes 2145. The plurality of first alignment holes 2144 are located between the first alignment groove 2141 and the second alignment groove 2142, and the plurality of first alignment holes 2144 are arranged at intervals in sequence along the second direction. The plurality of second alignment holes 2145 are located between the second alignment groove 2142 and the third alignment groove 2143, and the plurality of second alignment holes 2145 are arranged at intervals in sequence along the second direction. The shape of the alignment protrusion is adapted to the shapes of the first alignment holes 2144 and the second alignment holes 2145 to facilitate alignment and insertion, specifically subject to the actual situation.

[0067] In this embodiment, through the alignment connection mechanism among the support body 21, the second positioning portion 22, and the conveying portion, a stable and precise device structure is realized. This structure not only improves production efficiency but also reduces the error rate caused by position deviation, providing strong support for applications in the fields of industrial automation and precision machining.

[0068] In some exemplary embodiments, as Figure 1-Figure 6 shown, the conveying device further includes a carrier cover 3. The carrier cover 3 covers the carrier 1, such that the photosensitive element is clamped between the carrier cover 3 and the carrier 1 and restricts the photosensitive element in the vertical direction (refer to Figure 1The movement of the Z-axis shown. Among them, the shape of the carrier cover 3 is substantially the same as that of the carrier 1, so as to be more closely attached to the carrier 1 when pressing the photosensitive element.

[0069] Exemplarily, the carrier cover 3 includes, for example, a cover body 31, a first through hole 32, and a second through hole 33. The first through hole 32 is arranged in sequence along the first direction and the second direction. The first through hole 32 is correspondingly arranged with the mounting groove 131 to facilitate the exposure of the photosensitive element. A plurality of pressing plates 34 are arranged on the inner wall of the first through hole 32. The plurality of pressing plates 34 are correspondingly arranged with the bearing protrusions 132 to facilitate pressing the photosensitive element onto the bearing protrusions 132 and improve the stability when the photosensitive element is installed.

[0070] A second through hole 33 is arranged on each side of the first through hole 32. The second through hole 33 is correspondingly arranged with the first avoidance groove 134 to provide an operating space for the robotic arm and ensure that the robotic arm can clamp or place the photosensitive element.

[0071] The carrier cover 3 is provided with a third through hole 35 along one of its diagonals, and a fourth through hole 112 is arranged at the corresponding position on the carrier body 11. The third through hole 35 and the fourth through hole 112 are correspondingly arranged. Fasteners (not shown in the figure) are sequentially inserted into the fourth through hole 112 and the third through hole 35 to be fixedly connected with the carrier body 11 to limit the movement of the carrier cover 3. The third through hole 35 can be provided with two, for example, to improve the stability when the carrier cover 3 and the carrier 1 are connected.

[0072] A plurality of second avoidance notches 36 are arranged on the circumferential side wall of the cover body 31. The plurality of second avoidance notches 36 can be symmetrically arranged along the first direction and / or the second direction to provide an operable space to facilitate the robotic arm to approach the carrier cover 3, etc.

[0073] The present application also provides a production device, including a conveying device as in the above embodiment. The production device has a plurality of conveying tracks, and the conveying tracks at least include a throwing track and a feeding track. The conveying device is arranged to convey the photosensitive element to the throwing track and enter the feeding track from the throwing track. Of course, it can be understood that the conveying tracks also include, but are not limited to, an assembling track, etc., specifically subject to the actual situation.

[0074] The production device includes a transfer mechanism. The photosensitive element is transferred through the transfer mechanism and enters the feeding track from the throwing track. Among them, the transfer mechanism is, for example, a robotic arm, etc., which can clamp the carrier or the conveying part to realize picking and placing.

[0075] In the conveying device of this application, the manual transfer of the photosensitive element is cancelled, and the carrier is automatically picked up and placed in the feeding track to complete the automatic feeding of the photosensitive element for the second time. Moreover, when the optical chip enters the production equipment, the optically effective area is exposed to the air. Therefore, during the production process, it is necessary to minimize the entry of external fine particles into the production equipment and also avoid the entry of fine particles brought in by humans. Therefore, by optimizing the method of the photosensitive chip for the second time and changing it to the automatic feeding mode of the production equipment, the opening time of the production equipment can be shortened, and the time that employees stay in the production equipment due to manual feeding can also be reduced.

[0076] Since the photosensitive chip will be electrically tested before assembling the camera module to confirm whether it can conduct electricity normally, the photosensitive chips that fail the test will be directly placed into the reject tray by the robotic arm and wait for secondary manual input. When manually inputting, the door of the production equipment will be opened for a long time, and when employees manually place the substrate on the buffer disk, it will also increase the risk of fine dust particles and the like entering the production equipment. Therefore, in this application, when the photosensitive chip is installed in the carrier, it only needs to directly place the carrier into the feeding track in the production equipment when opening the door of the production equipment, and the production equipment can automatically re-input the products that fail the electrical test. The entire process takes less time than the manual transfer and feeding time, and the opening time of the production equipment is also effectively controlled, reducing the risk of fine dust particles and the like entering the production equipment.
