[0041] The multi-nozzle module 100 includes a first mounting seat 101, a screw motor 102, a screw nut seat 103, a guide plate 104, a cam bearing 105, a first linear guide 106, a cylinder 107 and a nozzle 108; the first mounting seat 101 is connected to the nozzle rotation module 300, and the first linear guide 106 is arranged along the Z-axis direction and fixed to the outer side of the first mounting seat 101; the guide plate 104 is slidably connected to the first linear guide 106 up and down, the screw motor 102 is fixed to the outer side of the first mounting seat 101, the output screw of the screw motor 102 is arranged downward and connected to the screw nut seat 103, and the screw nut seat 103 is fixed to the guide plate 104; there are N cylinders 107, N is an odd number, preferably 7; the N cylinders 107 are arranged side by side in the horizontal direction on the inner side of the first mounting seat 101, and the cylinder 107 located in the middle is fixed It is fixedly connected to the first mounting seat 101, and the other cylinders 107 on both sides are horizontally movably connected to the first mounting seat 101 through linear guide sliders; the guide plate 104 is provided with N-1 guide grooves 109 arranged in a fan shape, and the cylinders 107 on both sides are respectively connected to the cam bearings 105 on the side close to the guide groove 109, and each cam bearing 105 is movably arranged in its corresponding guide groove 109; the horizontal movement distance of each cam bearing 105 in its respective guide groove 109 is the same, and when the guide plate 104 slides up and down, the cam bearing 105 moves relative to each other in the guide groove 109, thereby driving each cylinder 107 to adjust equidistantly; a suction nozzle 108 is respectively installed at the power output end of each cylinder 107, and the extension or retraction action of each suction nozzle 108 is independently driven by its respective cylinder 107. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the cylinder 107 and the suction nozzle 108, the screw motor 102 rotates, driving the screw nut seat 103 to move up and down, and the guide plate 104 is fixedly connected to the screw nut seat 103 and is driven by the screw nut seat 103 to move up and down (Z direction) along the first linear guide rail 106; the cam bearing 105 is embedded in the guide groove 109 on the guide plate 104, and the cam bearing 105 can realize opening and closing movement as the up and down position of the guide groove 109 changes, thereby driving the cylinder 107 to move left and right in the horizontal direction, and adjusting the distance between the cylinders 107 equidistantly; it should be noted that, among the odd-numbered cylinders 107, the middle cylinder 107 is fixedly installed and is the middle point for width adjustment (not adjustable), and the cylinders 107 on the left and right sides are moved equidistantly to adjust the distance.

[0042] In actual applications, the program can flexibly enable the number of suction nozzles 108 according to production needs. A single suction nozzle can work independently, or multiple suction nozzles can work in coordination. Taking the setting of 7 suction nozzles 108 (corresponding to 7 cylinders 107) as an example, the suction nozzle module can realize that suction nozzles 1, 2, and 3 (such as: the 3 suction nozzles on the left) suck good chips, and suction nozzles 5, 6, and 7 (such as: the 3 suction nozzles on the right) suck defective chips; or suction nozzle 4 108 (that is, the suction nozzle in the middle) sucks chips alone; or seven suction nozzles 108 simultaneously suck chips and adjust the spacing before placing them into the tray or tape slot, etc. Various combination application scenarios.

[0043] Therefore, the multi-row, rotatable nozzle module with adjustable spacing according to the embodiment of the present invention can pick up multiple or single chips at a time, realizing actions such as picking up, moving, turning, and storing. At the same time, it can automatically adjust the nozzle spacing according to the different chip sizes and storage spacing differences to meet application scenarios such as tray loading and unloading, sorting and placing, and taping chip loading and unloading. According to production needs, a single nozzle can work independently, or multiple nozzles can work together, such as handling, sorting, tray placement, inspection, turning, etc., with a wide compatibility range (chip size 1mm*1mm to 40mm*40mm), easy adjustment, flexibility and high efficiency.

[0044] The main function of the nozzle lifting module 200 is to drive the nozzle rotation module 300 and the multi-nozzle module 100 to move up and down (in the Z direction) together, so as to adjust the height position of the multi-nozzle module 100. In this embodiment, the nozzle lifting module 200 includes a second mounting seat 201, a second linear guide 202, a lifting slide 203, a first servo motor 204, a first motor mounting bracket 205 and a ball screw nut pair 206. The second mounting seat 201 is the mounting base of the entire nozzle lifting module 200. The second linear guide 202 is arranged along the Z-axis direction and fixed on the second mounting seat 201. The lifting slide 203 is slidably connected to the second linear guide 202 up and down. The first servo motor 204 is fixed to the front top of the second mounting seat 201 through the first motor mounting bracket 205. The power output end of the first servo motor 204 is connected to the lifting slide 203 through the ball screw nut pair 206 and can drive the lifting slide 203 to move along the Z-axis direction. Specifically, the power output end of the first servo motor 204 is connected to the screw of the ball screw nut pair 206 through a coupling 207, and the nut of the ball screw nut pair 206 is fixedly connected to the lifting slide 203; the ends of the screw of the ball screw nut pair 206 are respectively connected to the second mounting seat 201 through a bearing seat 208, and one end of the screw passes through the bearing seat 208 and is connected to the coupling 207. When the multi-nozzle module 100 needs to be adjusted up and down (Z direction), the first servo motor 204 outputs torque, and the ball screw nut pair 206 converts the rotational motion of the first servo motor 204 into linear motion, driving the lifting slide 203 to move up and down (Z direction) along the second linear guide 202, thereby driving the nozzle rotation module 300 and the multi-nozzle module 100 to move up and down (Z direction) together.

[0045] Furthermore, considering the significant weight of the lift slide 203 and the components mounted thereon, two sets of symmetrically arranged tension spring assemblies 209 are designed between the lift slide 203 and the second mounting base 201. This balances the gravitational load of the lift slide 203 and the components mounted thereon (including the nozzle rotation module 300 and the multi-nozzle module 100) through spring tension. Specifically, the tension spring assembly 209 includes a tension spring 2091 and a tension spring seat 2092. The tension spring seat 2092 is fixed to the second mounting base 201. The upper end of the tension spring 2091 is connected to the tension spring seat 2092, and the lower end of the tension spring 2091 is connected to the upper end of the lift slide 203.

[0046] The main function of the nozzle rotation module 300 is to drive the entire multi-nozzle module 100 to rotate around the Z axis within 0 degrees to 270 degrees to adjust the direction of the chip. In this embodiment, the nozzle rotation module 300 includes a third mounting seat 301, a second servo motor 302, a second motor mounting bracket 303 and a hollow rotating platform 304; the third mounting seat 301 is fixed on the lifting slide 203, the second servo motor 302 is fixed to the third mounting seat 301 through the second motor mounting bracket 303, and the hollow rotating platform 304 is rotatably arranged at the bottom of the second motor mounting bracket 303. The power output end of the second servo motor 302 is connected to the hollow rotating platform 304 and can drive the hollow rotating platform 304 to rotate around the Z axis. When the direction of the multi-nozzle module 100 needs to be adjusted, the second servo motor 302 outputs torque to drive the hollow rotating platform 304 connected thereto to rotate around the Z axis, thereby driving the multi-nozzle module 100 connected to the hollow rotating platform 304 to rotate around the Z axis.

[0047] Exemplarily, in order to ensure that the components installed on the first mounting seat 101 are stable and reliable, the first mounting seat 101 includes a mounting top plate 1011, a mounting back plate 1012 and a mounting side plate 1013 that are interconnected.

[0048] For example, in order to ensure that the components installed on the second motor mounting bracket 303 are stable and reliable, the second motor mounting bracket 303 is composed of a motor mounting plate 3031, a reinforcing side plate 3032 and a reinforcing rib plate 3033; the motor mounting plate 3031 is fixed to the lower end of the lifting slide 203, the reinforcing side plate 3032 and the reinforcing rib plate 3033 are arranged on both sides of the second servo motor 302, the reinforcing side plate 3032 is connected between the motor mounting plate 3031 and the lifting slide 203, and the reinforcing rib plate 3033 is connected between the motor mounting plate 3031 and the lifting slide 203.

[0049] Exemplarily, the installation top plate 1011 is provided with a pipeline guide tube 1014 that is connected to the space enclosed by the installation top plate 1011, the installation back plate 1012, and the installation side plate 1013. The pipeline guide tube 1014 is inserted into the hollow area of ​​the hollow rotating platform 304. The motor mounting plate 3031 is provided with a wire hole 3034 that is connected to the hollow area of ​​the hollow rotating platform 304. This design allows the air pipes and sensor cables (such as signal cables and power cables) on the cylinder 107 and the suction nozzle 108 to be led above the motor mounting plate 3031, effectively reducing the disturbance of the air pipes and cables during the rotation of the multi-nozzle module 100.

[0050] Exemplarily, the nozzle rotation module 300 is provided with a first photoelectric sensor 305 for calibrating a reference origin of a rotation angle, so as to achieve precise control of the rotation position of the multi-nozzle module 100 .

The second solenoid valve group 404 and the terminal block 405 are both installed on the mounting platform 406; the solenoid valves of the first solenoid valve group 403 are connected one-to-one with the cylinders 107 through air circuits, thereby independently controlling the extension and retraction of the cylinders 107, driving the suction nozzles 108 to extend or retract; the solenoid valves of the second solenoid valve group 404 are connected one-to-one with the suction nozzles 108 through air circuits, thereby independently controlling the suction action of the suction nozzles 108, thereby realizing chip picking and placing; all sensor cables and solenoid valve cables are all connected to the terminal block 405, and the cables concentrated at the terminal block 405 are connected to the equipment circuit board through a drag chain.

[0053] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the connection of the air pipes and cables of the air sensors on the cylinder 107 and the suction nozzle 108 (such as signal lines and power lines) to the solenoid valve module 400, a wire passing bracket plate 700 is fixed on the motor mounting plate 3031. The wire passing bracket plate 700 is located above the wire passing hole 3034. The outer side of the solenoid valve mounting bracket 401 and the upper end of the lifting slide 203 are both fixed with electrical cable brackets 800.

[0054] In addition, if Figure 6 As shown, the multi-row, rotatable nozzle module of this embodiment with adjustable spacing can also be mounted on a matching linear module 500. The linear module 500 drives the entire nozzle module to move between various chip placement points, coordinating with the nozzle 108 to pick up, redirect, and place the chips. Specifically, multiple functions can be achieved, including chip redirection, sorting, and transfer of qualified products to packaging. A single nozzle 108 can operate, or multiple nozzles 108 can operate simultaneously, maximizing work efficiency.

[0055] In this embodiment, the linear module 500 installed on the gantry 600 drives the nozzle module to move (in the X direction) to the position above the material tray where the material needs to be taken; the nozzle lifting module 200 drives the multi-nozzle module 100 to descend as a whole (in the Z direction), and at the same time the second solenoid valve group 404 is actuated, the nozzle 108 air circuit generates a vacuum, the first solenoid valve is actuated, the cylinder 107 extends the air nozzle and contacts the chip, and the vacuum nozzle 108 adsorbs the chip; then the nozzle lifting module 200 reversely drives the multi-nozzle 108 assembly to rise as a whole (in the Z direction) to a safe height; the linear module 500 on the gantry 600 drives the nozzle module to move (in the X direction) and moves the nozzle module to the chip tray. Placement position (if the chip needs to be turned, the nozzle rotation module 300 can drive the chip to rotate to the required angle as a whole); at this time, the nozzle lifting module 200 drives the multi-nozzle module 100 to descend as a whole (Z direction) to the chip discharge height, and the second solenoid valve group 404 is activated again to break the vacuum and place the chip into the corresponding acupuncture point (such as the tape groove position, the TRAY plate corresponding acupuncture point); then the nozzle lifting module 200 is activated again, driving the multi-nozzle module 100 to rise as a whole (Z direction) to the safe position; then the linear module 500 drives the nozzle module to move (X direction) to the next material picking position, and repeats this action to complete the sorting, movement, placement and other actions of all chips.

[0056] During chip pickup, transport, and discharge, the display on the second solenoid valve provides real-time feedback on vacuum changes, enabling monitoring of whether each nozzle 108 is securing the chip, whether it is securely holding the chip, and whether any abnormalities, such as chip dropout, occur. The program can respond to this feedback with corresponding adjustments (e.g., alarms, resupply, etc.). If the spacing between nozzles 108 needs to be adjusted to change chip production specifications, the system can automatically adjust the spacing based on the chip's corresponding parameters.
