Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of component assembly lines, in particular to a multifunctional assembly line of radio frequency components for electronic equipment. Background Art
[0002] RF cables serve as crucial connectors in radio transmission for radio communications and broadcast television. In common communications devices (such as mobile phones), the connection between two RF components is typically achieved during the final packaging process. Because this involves flipping the flexible cable and attaching it diagonally to the phone's circuit board, this process is often performed separately using multiple machines or manually.
[0003] If different equipment were used, each would be large and require dedicated docking stations, which would not only take up more space but also hinder assembly and subsequent unified maintenance. Manual assembly, on the other hand, would be susceptible to multiple factors affecting assembly quality and making it impossible to manage it uniformly.
[0004] In view of this, this technical solution proposes a multifunctional assembly line with automatic loading and unloading, automatic flipping (deflection) and NG detection, which is suitable for the automated assembly of RF wires on the motherboard of communication equipment. It has a high degree of integrated automation and multi-dimensional detection characteristics, which facilitates unified management and maintenance. Summary of the Invention

[0007] A carrier tape for transporting radio frequency wires is provided on one side of the feeding position. The radio frequency wires include conductors and connectors provided at both ends of the conductors. A top camera is provided above the carrier tape.
[0008] The material transport mechanism is arranged on one side above the carrier belt, and includes a first material transport mechanism and a second material transport mechanism respectively arranged on both sides of the guide rail and with the bottoms of the first material transport mechanism and the second material transport mechanism respectively close to the feeding position and the unloading position.
[0009] The material shifting mechanism is arranged on the opposite side of the material transporting mechanism, and the deflecting mechanism is arranged between the material transporting mechanism and the material shifting mechanism.
[0010] As a further solution of the present invention, a straightening mechanism for straightening the RF wire is provided between the bottom of the material moving mechanism and the carrier tape.
[0011] As a further solution of the present invention, a bottom camera is provided at the bottom of the material moving mechanism.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0026] as follows:
[0027] Please see the attached Figure 1-7 ,
[0028] The main structure includes a frame body 1 consisting of a feeding position 2, a unloading position 7, a top camera 20, a transport mechanism 3, a shifting mechanism 5 and a deflection mechanism 6. A carrier tape 22 for transporting the RF line 10 is provided on one side of the feeding position 2. The RF line 10 includes a wire 100 and connectors 101 arranged at both ends of the wire 100. A top camera 20 is provided above the carrier tape 22. The transport mechanism 3 is arranged on one side above the carrier tape 22. It includes a first transport mechanism 30 and a second transport mechanism 31 respectively arranged on both sides of the guide rail 30 and the bottom of each of which is provided with a clamp 301. The first transport mechanism 30 and the second transport mechanism 31 are respectively close to the feeding position 2 and the unloading position 7. The shifting mechanism 5 is arranged on the opposite side of the transport mechanism 3, and the deflection mechanism 6 is arranged between the transport mechanism 3 and the shifting mechanism 5.
[0029] Here’s how it works:
[0030] During operation, the RF line 10 is placed on the carrier 22 from the feeding position 2 by the robot arm. A top camera 20 is provided above the starting position and the end of the carrier 22. When NG material is detected, it is sent to the NG material bin through the transport mechanism 3 (first transport mechanism 30) on one side, and the OK material is clamped by the material transfer mechanism 5 and sent to the deflection mechanism 6 in the middle position of the frame body 1 for deflection. The purpose of the deflection is to turn the connector 101 of the RF line 10 to an angle suitable for buckling, and the deflection mechanism 6 adopts an up and down rubbing structure that simulates the human hand. The two sets of clamps 60 on both sides "rub" synchronously, and finally are clamped by the second transport mechanism 31 on one side and sent to the OK material, or directly mounted after clamping.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a straightening mechanism 4 for straightening the RF wire 10 is provided between the bottom of the material moving mechanism 5 and the carrier tape 22 .
[0032] The straightening mechanism 4 is used to straighten the radio frequency wire 10 after it is discharged from the carrier tape 22, so as to facilitate subsequent processing. The straightening mechanism 4 has a simple structure and is composed of a servo motor with both ends aligned.
[0033] A preferred embodiment of the present invention: a bottom camera 21 is provided at the bottom of the material moving mechanism 5 .
[0034] The bottom camera 21 is mainly used to cooperate with the top camera 20 to perform simultaneous reference detection to ensure that the upper and lower surfaces of the connector 101 can be properly fastened.
[0035] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the material moving mechanism 5 is composed of a gantry frame 50 and a material grabbing head 51 hoisted on the gantry frame 50 .
[0036] The grabbing head 51 is a multi-axis structure (three-axis) and can move forward, backward, up and down. For example, after grabbing the RF wire 10 , it can move downward, forward, or backward.
[0037] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the deflection mechanism 6 is composed of upper and lower clamps 60 for simulating the rubbing of human hands, and the two groups of clamps 60 are arranged opposite to each other.
[0038] The deflection mechanism 6 is a structure of two pairs of clamps 60, each of which includes two synchronous and asynchronous grabbing hooks. When performing asynchronous lifting, a "rubbing" action is realized, and the connecting head 101 can be rotated to a certain angle for positioning.
[0039] A preferred embodiment of the present invention is as follows: a side camera 61 for detecting the deflection of the connector 101 is provided on the outside of the clamp 60 .
[0040] The side cameras 61 are used to determine whether the "rubbing" angle meets the standard, and the side cameras 61 on both sides simultaneously detect the connectors 101 at both ends.
[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the technical solution of the present utility model, and does not limit the patent scope of the technical solution of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made by using the contents of the description and drawings of the technical solution of the present utility model under the conception of the technical solution of the present utility model, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
