Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chip loading equipment, in particular to a loading device for carrying chips in the forward and reverse directions. Background Art
[0002] Chips can be mounted in two ways: face-up and flip-up. Face-up placement involves placing the chip with its front side facing up and its back side pressed onto the substrate for bonding. Flip-up placement involves placing the chip with its back side facing up and its front side pressed onto the substrate for bonding. The chip loading device is used for transfer and transport of chips. After retrieving the chip from the chip retrieving station, the loading device transports the chip to the bottom of the placement head, allowing the placement head to descend to retrieve the chip and proceed with subsequent placement operations.
[0003] The chips at the chip picking station are placed on the tray. The multiple chips placed on the tray are generally placed with the front side (electrical side) facing up to better protect the chip circuit. The suction nozzle of the existing chip loading device first rises and falls to absorb the chip to pick up the material, and then flips the nozzle 180° to make the front side of the chip face down. After the chip is transported to the bottom of the patch head, the patch head descends to pick up the material for flip-chip mounting. When the chip needs to be mounted upright, a transfer mechanism needs to be added. Under this working condition, the suction nozzle does not flip after picking up the material. The transfer mechanism picks up the material directly from under the suction nozzle. After the transfer mechanism is lifted, the patch head picks up the material for mounting the chip upright. Under this working condition, the front side of the chip always faces upward.
[0004] Therefore, the integration of the flip-chip tooling and the upright tooling of existing chip loading equipment is low. When the two toolings are integrated on the same machine tool, the device occupies a large space. Moreover, after the two toolings are integrated, the process steps for upright tooling are more complicated, and the chip transportation time is longer. Utility Model Content

[0039] In order to better explain the present invention and facilitate understanding, the present invention is described in detail below through specific implementation methods in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0040] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

Therefore, features specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In the description of this utility model, "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined.
[0042] In this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "connection" and "fixation" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can refer to fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; "connection" can refer to mechanical connection or electrical connection; it can refer to direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can refer to internal communication between two elements or interaction between two elements, unless otherwise specified. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0043] See also Figures 1 to 3 The utility model provides a loading device for flip-chip transport, which includes a transplanting platform 1, an electric slide 2, a first loading mechanism 3 and a second loading mechanism 4; the electric slide 2 and the first loading mechanism 3 are both installed on the transplanting platform 1; the transplanting platform 1 can drive the electric slide 2 and the first loading mechanism 3 to slide horizontally, and the horizontal direction is the sliding direction of the transplanting platform 1; the second loading mechanism 4 is installed on the electric slide 2; the first loading mechanism 3 is provided with a first rotary suction nozzle 31; the second loading mechanism 4 is provided with a second rotary suction nozzle 41; wherein the first rotary suction nozzle 31 and the second rotary suction nozzle 41 can rotate in a first direction, and the first direction is the rotation direction of the rotating shaft of the flip motor 32; the electric slide 2 can drive the second loading mechanism 4 to slide horizontally so that the first rotary suction nozzle 31 and the second rotary suction nozzle 41 abut against each other.
[0044] In this embodiment, the chips in the tray are picked up by an external material removal tool and unloaded onto the adsorption surface of the first rotary suction nozzle 31, with the front of the chip facing downward. The top surfaces of the first rotary suction nozzle 31 and the second rotary suction nozzle 41 are adsorption surfaces, and adsorption holes are provided on the adsorption surfaces to adsorb the chips through negative pressure. Compared with traditional suction nozzles, the adsorption method of the flat adsorption surface can effectively improve the stability of chip adsorption, that is, improve the position accuracy of the chip on the rotary suction nozzle during the movement of the transplanting platform 1 and the flipping of the rotary suction nozzle, reduce the position error during the movement and interaction of the chip, and thus improve the patch accuracy with the substrate and improve product quality.
[0045] The first rotary suction nozzle 31 and the second rotary suction nozzle 41 can rotate in the first direction, so that the adsorption surface of the first rotary suction nozzle 31 and the adsorption surface of the second rotary suction nozzle 41 can be adjusted in orientation. In conjunction with the driving mode of the electric slide 2 and the second loading mechanism 4, the first rotary suction nozzle 31 and the second rotary suction nozzle 41 can be abutted, and the chip is clamped between a pair of adsorption surfaces, thereby realizing the transfer and face changing of the chip, and realizing the upright or inverted transportation of the chip on a small-volume and highly integrated loading device.
[0046] When the chip needs to be mounted upright, the transfer platform 1 can be moved directly under the placement head, and the placement head directly picks up the material from the suction surface of the first rotating suction nozzle 31. Compared with the existing upright operation, the transportation time is greatly shortened, and there is no need to add a transfer mechanism, which effectively reduces the space occupied by the equipment.
[0047] When the chip needs to be flipped, the adsorption surface of the first rotary suction nozzle 31 rotates 90° counterclockwise, and the adsorption surface of the second rotary suction nozzle 41 rotates 90° clockwise, so that the pair of adsorption surfaces rotate to a face-to-face parallel state; the electric slide 2 drives the second rotary suction nozzle 41 to move horizontally, so that the adsorption surface of the second rotary suction nozzle 41 moves toward the adsorption surface of the first rotary suction nozzle 31 until it moves to the preset position, and the chip is clamped between the pair of adsorption surfaces; the first rotary suction nozzle 31 releases the negative pressure, and the second rotary suction nozzle 41 opens the negative pressure, and the chip is adsorbed onto the second rotary suction nozzle 41; the electric slide 2 resets; the first rotary suction nozzle 31 and the second rotary suction nozzle 41 reset; the transfer platform 1 moves to the bottom of the patch head, and the patch head picks up the material. The interaction between the electric slide 2, the first loading mechanism 3 and the second loading mechanism 4 is completed within the sliding working time of the transfer platform 1, and does not take up additional transportation working time.
[0048] The loading device achieves a high degree of integration between upright and flip-chip tooling, taking up minimal space and improving its adaptability to smaller machine tools. Both upright and flip-chip tooling require the same operating time as the sliding movement of the transfer platform 1, minimizing chip transport time and improving production efficiency.
[0049] Furthermore, both the first loading mechanism 3 and the second loading mechanism 4 include a flipping motor 32 and a flipping head 33, with the flipping head 33 connected to the rotating shaft of the flipping motor 32. The first rotary suction nozzle 31 and the second rotary suction nozzle 41 are correspondingly arranged on the pair of flipping heads 33. The flipping motor 32 of the first loading mechanism 3 is arranged on the transplanting platform 1; the flipping motor 32 of the second loading mechanism 4 is arranged on the electric slide 2. Specifically, the flipping motor 32 is preferably a hollow stepper motor to accurately locate the adjustment position of the suction surface and provide real-time feedback to the control center. The control center monitors the rotation angle of the rotary suction nozzle to ensure the accuracy of the chip interaction between the first rotary suction nozzle 31 and the second rotary suction nozzle 41, and improve the interaction stability. The transplanting platform 1 is preferably equipped with a linear motor. During the lateral movement of the transplanting platform 1, the adsorption surfaces corresponding to the first rotary suction nozzle 31 and the second rotary suction nozzle 41 are flipped to a face-to-face parallel state. The electric slide 2 drives the second loading mechanism 4 laterally toward the first loading mechanism 3 to complete the interaction of the chip on a pair of rotary suction nozzles. After the second rotary suction nozzle 41 is reset, that is, the adsorption surface of the second rotary suction nozzle 41 faces upward, the flipping of the front of the chip is completed, and then the flip-chip is realized in conjunction with the patch head.
[0050] The working hours of the flip-chip process of the present invention do not exceed the working hours of the lateral transfer of the transfer platform 1, that is, the process of flipping the chip from the front does not take up additional working hours. In addition, in this embodiment, the flip head 33 is a block and the rotating suction nozzle is a plate. Both occupy a small space. During the lateral transfer of the transfer platform 1, the flipping is not easy to interfere with external equipment. At the same time, the adsorption surface of the plate is a plane, which has strong adsorption stability for the chip, thereby improving the adaptability of flipping the chip while the chip is being transferred laterally. The existing suction nozzle is a rod type. To avoid interference, the nozzle usually adsorbs the chip and completes a 180° flip before performing lateral transfer. The 180° flip process takes up additional working hours. Therefore, the working hours of the present application are shorter than those of the existing rod-type suction nozzle transportation process.
[0051] Furthermore, the flip head 33 is provided with a buffer assembly 34; the buffer assembly 34 includes a linear guide rail 341, an elastic member (not shown) and a stopper 342; the flip head 33 is provided with a linear guide rail 341 and a stopper 342 correspondingly; the linear guide rail 341 can move along the axial direction of the elastic member on the flip head 33; one end of the elastic member is connected to the linear guide rail 341, and the other end is connected to the stopper 342. Specifically, the linear guide rail 341 includes a guide rail and a slider; the guide rail is provided on the end face of the flip head 33; the slider is slidably provided on the guide rail; the stopper 342 can limit the sliding of the slider; one end of the elastic member is connected to the linear guide rail 34, and the other end is connected to the stopper 342. Figure 1Taking the shown orientation as an example, in this state, the first loading mechanism 3 is in its original position, and the linear guide 341 is affected by its own gravity to press down the elastic member. The elastic member is a pressure-bearing elastic member and can be a spring or a rubber block. When the first rotary suction nozzle 31 rotates 90° counterclockwise and the second rotary suction nozzle 41 squeezes the first rotary suction nozzle 31 laterally, the first rotary suction nozzle 31 moves laterally and squeezes the elastic member. The elastic member can effectively play a buffering role, buffering the collision force of the second rotary suction nozzle 41 on the first rotary suction nozzle 31, thereby effectively protecting the chip, avoiding the situation where the chip is damaged by collision, and improving the reliability of the loading device. Of course, the elastic member can also be set as a tensile elastic member, and the buffer assembly 34 can also be set on the flip head 33 of the second loading mechanism 4; or the elastic member can be set as other structures, as long as the collision buffering between the second rotary suction nozzle 41 and the first rotary suction nozzle 31 can be achieved.
[0052] In the first embodiment, a first vent is provided in the flip motor 32; a first air pipe connector 35 is provided at one end of the flip motor 32 facing away from the flip head 33; one end of the first vent is connected to the first air pipe connector 35, and the other end is connected to the first rotary suction nozzle 31 or the second rotary suction nozzle 41. Specifically, the first vent is a countersunk hole extending along the axis of the rotating shaft of the flip motor 32. A connecting hole is provided on the flip motor 32, one end of the air pipe is connected to the connecting hole, and the other end of the air pipe is connected to the rotary suction nozzle. Taking the first rotary suction nozzle 31 as an example, the air flow can be discharged in sequence through the adsorption hole of the first rotary suction nozzle 31, the first vent of the first feeding mechanism 3, and the air pipe connector of the first feeding mechanism 3 to form a negative pressure adsorption chip. By providing the first vent inside the flip motor 32, the use of air pipes can be saved and costs can be reduced; at the same time, direct connection between the first air pipe connector 35 and the first rotary suction nozzle 31 is avoided, thereby effectively preventing the air pipe from being too long and affecting the rotation accuracy of the first rotary suction nozzle 31.
[0053] In the second embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, a second air pipe joint 331 is provided on the flip head 33; a third air pipe joint 311 is provided on both the first rotary suction nozzle 31 and the second rotary suction nozzle 41; a second air vent is provided in the flip head 33; on the first feeding mechanism 3 and the second feeding mechanism 4, the first air vent, the second air vent, the second air pipe joint 331 and the third air pipe joint 311 are connected in sequence. In this embodiment, the first air vent is a through hole, the second air vent is a countersunk hole, and the second air vent is connected to the second air pipe joint 331; the second air pipe joint 331 and the third air pipe joint 311 are further connected through an air pipe. Compared with the first embodiment, the second air pipe joint 331 and the third air pipe joint 311 are connected through an air pipe. The advantage is that the air pipe, the second air pipe joint 331 and the third air pipe joint 311 can rotate synchronously, which effectively avoids the problem of winding caused by the air pipe being too long, thereby avoiding the situation where the air affects the rotation accuracy of the rotary suction nozzle.
[0054] Secondly, a manual slide 5 is provided on the electric slide 2; the manual slide 5 is a cross-roller slide; the manual slide 5 can drive the second loading mechanism 4 to move longitudinally and transversely. Specifically, the longitudinal direction is the axial direction of the rotating shaft of the flip motor 32. The cross-roller slide enables the second loading mechanism 4 to move longitudinally and transversely, achieving compensation adjustment of the positioning of a pair of adsorption surfaces, thereby improving the docking accuracy of the pair of adsorption surfaces and further improving the interactive stability of the chip. Of course, a manual slide 5 can also be provided between the first loading mechanism 3 and the transplanting platform 1.

Its purpose is to enable those skilled in the art to understand the contents of the present invention and implement them accordingly.
