[0034] It should be noted that during operation, the heat sink plates to be measured are placed on the transverse transfer vehicle 2 and then transported to the measurement position of the laser measurement unit 3. Then, the dimensions of the heat sink are measured. After the measurement is completed, the transverse transfer vehicle 2 transports the heat sink to the lower transfer point below the lower transfer handling unit 4. Then, the lower transfer handling unit 4 is activated to clamp and transport the measured heat sink, and then the heat sink is transported to the lower transfer output unit 5 and then out of the measurement cabinet 1. Then, the worker stands on one side of the lower transfer output unit 5 to manually pick up the measured heat sink.

[0036] With this design, referring to Figures 2-5 and Figure 9 , the first laser instrument 32 and the second laser instrument 34 can respectively perform high-precision measurements on the length, width, thickness, and surface flatness of the heat sink. The laser measurement technology itself has the characteristics of high precision and stability, so it can ensure the accuracy and reliability of the measurement results. Since both the first laser instrument 32 and the second laser instrument 34 are adjustably arranged on the third electric slide rail 33, they can be flexibly adjusted according to the size and shape of the heat sink to meet the measurement requirements of different specifications of heat sinks. This design greatly improves the versatility and adaptability of the equipment.

Since the sliders 444 are adjustably arranged on both sides of the adjusting block 443 and are slidably arranged at the bottom of the connection frame 442, the position of the jaws 445 can be adjusted according to the size and shape of the heat sink. Therefore, the clamping device 44 can adapt to heat sinks of different specifications and shapes, having strong adaptability. Through the coordinated action of the adjusting cylinder 43 and the clamping cylinder 441, the jaws 445 can be flexibly opened and closed, facilitating the picking and placing of the heat sink. This design improves the convenience and efficiency of the operation.

[0041] In one embodiment, a guiding block 4431 is arranged at a position of the adjusting block 443 close to the slider 444.

[0043] In one embodiment, a contact plate 4451 is fixed to the lower end of the jaw 445, and a contact block 4452 is fixed to the upper end of the contact plate 4451. The contact block 4452 is made of urethane rubber.

[0044] With such a design, referring to Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the contact block 4452 is made of urethane rubber, which has good buffering performance. When clamping the heat sink, it can avoid causing rigid damage to the heat sink, thus playing a role in protecting the heat sink.

[0045] In one embodiment, the blanking output unit 5 includes an OK blanking line 51 and an NG blanking line 52. Both the OK blanking line 51 and the NG blanking line 52 are arranged on the operating table of the measuring cabinet 1, and discharge ports 12 are provided at the positions of the measuring cabinet 1 corresponding to the OK blanking line 51 and the NG blanking line 52.

[0046] With such a design, referring to Figures 1-5 , by setting the OK blanking line 51 and the NG blanking line 52, qualified (OK) and unqualified (NG) products can be effectively classified. This classification helps with subsequent quality control and product traceability, ensuring that only qualified products enter the next production process, thereby improving the overall product quality.
