[0022] In order to facilitate the explanation of the central idea of ​​the utility model in the above utility model content column, the specific embodiments are used for expression. Various objects in the embodiments are depicted according to the proportions, sizes, deformations or displacements suitable for the description, rather than being drawn according to the proportions of the actual components, which should be explained first.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4The variable distance pick-and-place mechanism of the utility model comprises a variable distance mechanism 10 and a pick-and-place mechanism controlled by the variable distance mechanism 10.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 4 The pitch changing mechanism 10 includes a pitch changing seat 11 and a pitch changing driving device 20 .

[0025] The variable pitch seat 11 is provided with a plurality of waist-shaped holes 12, and the adjacent distances of the first ends 121 of the plurality of waist-shaped holes 12 are smaller than the adjacent distances of the second ends 122 of the waist-shaped holes 12. The adjacent distances are arranged accordingly according to the need for variable pitch. A guide 13 is arranged in each waist-shaped hole 12, and the guide 13 is connected to a transfer seat 14, and the transfer seat 14 is loaded with a pick-and-place device in the pick-and-place mechanism. The pick-and-place device can be any mechanical device for picking up and placing crystal grains or semiconductor components. The transfer seat 14 is supported by a variable pitch saddle 15, and the variable pitch saddle 15 can be slidably arranged on a variable pitch slide rail 16, and the variable pitch slide rail 16 is fixed to a frame 50.

[0026] The variable pitch drive device 20 is installed on the frame 50, and drives the variable pitch seat 11 to reciprocate along the Z axis (vertical axis) of the variable pitch pick-and-place mechanism. The variable pitch drive device 20 is a combination of a variable pitch drive motor 21 directly connected to a variable pitch ball screw module 22.

[0027] In the figure, the frame 50 is provided with two longitudinal slide rails 51 at relative positions on the left and right, and a first saddle 52 is slidably arranged on each of the two longitudinal slide rails 51. The variable distance seat 11 is fixed to the two first saddles 52, and the variable distance seat 11 can reciprocate along the longitudinal slide rails 51.

[0028] In the example shown in the figure, the waist-shaped hole 12, the guide member 13, the transfer seat 14, the variable pitch saddle 15, and the variable pitch slide rail 16 are divided into two groups, arranged in an upper and lower position and arranged alternately at intervals.

[0029] like Figures 5 to 8 , describes the operation of the pitch-changing mechanism 10. Figure 5 and Figure 6 When the pitch-changing seat 11 is driven by the pitch-changing driving device 20 to move upward and stop at the first position, the guide member 13 is located at the second end 122 of the waist-shaped hole 12, and the guide member 13 guides the carrier 14 and the pitch-changing saddle 15 to move along the pitch-changing slide rail 16 to be arranged at the widest distance. Figure 7 and Figure 8When the pitch-changing seat 11 is driven by the pitch-changing driving device 20 to move downward and stop at the second position, the guide member 13 is located at the first end 121 of the waist-shaped hole 12, and the guide member 13 guides the carrier 14 and the pitch-changing saddle 15 to move along the pitch-changing slide rail 16 to form the narrowest pitch arrangement. The pitch-changing seat 11 can also be stopped at any position between the first position and the second position under the control of the pitch-changing driving device 20, so as to adjust the working pitch of each of the pick-and-place devices.

[0030] Furu Figures 1 to 4 The variable pitch pick-and-place mechanism of the present invention is connected to a translation track 63 of a translation device (not shown) through a rack transfer device 60. The translation device is a conventional technology and is not the main technical content of the present invention, so it will not be described in detail here. The translation device mainly performs horizontal movement (X axis and / or Y axis), driving the variable pitch pick-and-place mechanism to move between the transfer start point and the end point of the wafer or semiconductor component.

[0031] The frame carrying and moving device 60 includes a carrying plate 61 and a lifting and lowering driving device 64 .

[0032] The receiving plate 61 is slidably disposed on the two longitudinal slide rails 51 through a second saddle 53. A horizontal saddle 62 is mounted on the second saddle 53 and connected to the translation track 63 of the translation device (not shown). Accordingly, the variable distance pick-and-place mechanism can be controlled by the translation device to perform horizontal (X-axis and / or Y-axis) movement.

[0033] The lifting drive device 64 is a combination of a frame drive motor 65, a speed reducer 66 and a frame ball screw module 67. The frame drive motor 65 is mounted on the carrier plate 61, the frame ball screw module 67 is connected to the frame 50, and the speed reducer 66 reduces the rotational power of the frame drive motor 65 and transmits it to the frame ball screw module 67, thereby converting it into a vertical linear movement of the frame 50 (i.e., the entire variable pitch pick-and-place mechanism).

[0034] As described above, the variable distance pick-up and placement mechanism is controlled by the translation device to move between the starting point of the transfer and the final placement. During the horizontal movement, the variable distance mechanism 10 drives the various pick-up and placement devices of the pick-up and placement mechanism to adjust the spacing, so that each pick-up and placement device can correspond to the position of the grain or semiconductor component at the starting point of the transfer and the final placement. The large distance vertical movement corresponding to the position of the grain is performed by the lifting drive device 64, which controls the variable distance pick-up and placement mechanism to approach or move away from the starting point of the transfer and the final placement in the vertical distance. When the variable distance pick-up and placement mechanism approaches the starting point of the transfer and the final placement, the pick-up and placement device moves vertically by a small distance to absorb or place the grain.

[0035] The above are the preferred embodiments of the utility model and the technical principles used therein. For those skilled in the art, without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, any obvious changes such as equivalent transformation, simple replacement, etc. based on the technical solution of the utility model shall fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
