Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of optical module testing equipment, and particularly relates to a turnover mechanism of an optical module plug-in machine. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, the testing of optical modules usually adopts manual operation. First, it is necessary to manually observe whether there are inclinations, damages and other appearance defects in the connection part of the test board, and then insert the gold fingers of the optical module into the connection head of the test board to observe whether the optical module cannot be inserted into the test board connection head due to poor dimensions. It is necessary to manually sort out defective products, and then separate the qualified optical modules from the test board and load them into trays. This detection method has low efficiency and problems such as missed detection and misdetection. Therefore, it is very important to design an optical module plug-in machine that can realize automatic feeding and detection. However, when the optical module is placed on the tray for feeding, it is usually necessary to turn over the optical module before it can be normally inserted into the connection head of the test board. Therefore, the purpose of the inventor is to propose a turnover mechanism of an optical module plug-in machine that can turn over the optical module. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the main purpose of the utility model is to provide a turnover mechanism of an optical module plug-in machine that can quickly and accurately turn over the optical module and facilitate the subsequent transfer of the optical module.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A turnover mechanism of an optical module plug-in machine, including a lifting electric cylinder, the piston rod of the lifting electric cylinder is connected to a turnover electric gripper, a support frame is arranged on one side of the lifting electric cylinder, a jig plate for placing the optical module is arranged on the support frame, a photoelectric sensor for detecting whether the optical module is placed on the jig plate is arranged on the support frame, negative pressure adsorption holes capable of adsorbing the optical module are arranged on the jig plate, and the turnover electric gripper includes two jaws capable of clamping the optical module.

[0005] Preferably, a buffer stop block capable of abutting against the optical module is arranged at the end of the jig plate on the support frame.

[0006] Preferably, a fixing plate is arranged on the lifting electric cylinder, a placement plate is connected to the fixing plate through a positioning optical rod, and the turnover electric gripper is fixedly arranged on the placement plate.

[0007] Preferably, an avoidance part for placing the two jaws is arranged on the support frame.

[0008] The utility model has the following advantages over the prior art. First, the optical module placed on the fixture board is adsorbed by the negative pressure adsorption holes, which can play a certain fixing role. Then, the lifting electric cylinder drives the flipping electric gripper to rise until the two grippers rise to both sides of the optical module. Then, the flipping electric gripper contracts the two grippers to clamp and fix the optical module. The lifting cylinder continues to rise, and the flipping electric gripper drives the optical module to flip through the two grippers. After the optical module flips, the lifting electric cylinder drives the flipping electric gripper to descend until the optical module is located on the fixture board. At this time, the negative pressure adsorption holes adsorb and fix the optical module again. Then, the two grippers of the flipping electric gripper release and leave the optical module, and the lifting electric cylinder drives the flipping electric gripper to descend again. This solution can realize the rapid and precise flipping of the optical module, facilitating the subsequent transfer of the optical module. Description of the Drawings

[0012] The present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0013] As Figure 1 shown, a flipping mechanism of an optical module 5 plug-in machine includes a lifting electric cylinder 1. The piston rod of the lifting electric cylinder 1 is connected to a flipping electric gripper 2. A support frame 3 is arranged on one side of the lifting electric cylinder 1. A fixture board 4 for placing the optical module 5 is arranged on the support frame 3. A photoelectric sensor 6 for detecting whether the optical module 5 is placed on the fixture board 4 is arranged on the support frame 3. Negative pressure adsorption holes capable of adsorbing the optical module 5 are arranged on the fixture board 4. The flipping electric gripper 2 includes two grippers 7 capable of clamping the optical module 5.

[0014] A flipping mechanism of an optical module 5 plugging and unplugging machine in this solution. Its working process is as follows: First, the optical module 5 placed on the fixture plate 4 is adsorbed by the negative pressure adsorption holes (the negative pressure adsorption holes are not shown in the attached drawings). Such a setting can play a certain fixing role. Then, the lifting electric cylinder 1 drives the flipping electric gripper 2 to rise until the two jaws 7 rise to both sides of the optical module 5. Then, the flipping electric gripper 2 contracts the two jaws 7 to clamp and fix the optical module 5. The lifting cylinder continues to rise, and the flipping electric gripper 2 drives the optical module 5 to flip through the two jaws 7. After the optical module 5 flips, the lifting electric cylinder 1 drives the flipping electric gripper 2 to descend until the optical module 5 is located on the fixture plate 4. At this time, the negative pressure adsorption holes adsorb and fix the optical module 5 again. Then, the two jaws 7 of the flipping electric gripper 2 release and leave the optical module 5, and the lifting electric cylinder 1 drives the flipping electric gripper 2 to descend again. This solution can achieve rapid and precise flipping of the optical module 5, facilitating subsequent transfer of the optical module 5.

[0015] Preferably, a buffer stop block 8 capable of abutting against the optical module 5 is provided at the end of the fixture plate 4 on the support frame 3. The setting of the buffer stop block 8 can limit the optical module 5 and will not cause bumps to the optical module 5.

[0016] Preferably, a fixing plate 9 is provided on the lifting electric cylinder 1. An installation plate 11 is connected to the fixing plate 9 through a positioning optical rod 10. The flipping electric gripper 2 is fixedly arranged on the installation plate 11. The setting of the fixing plate 9, the positioning optical rod 10 and the installation plate 11 can improve the stability of the flipping electric gripper 2 during the up and down movement.

[0017] Preferably, an avoidance part 12 for placing the two jaws is provided on the support frame 3. The setting of the avoidance part 12 can prevent interference between the two jaws 7 and other components.
