[0030] The core of this application is to provide a loading and unloading mechanism to improve the loading and unloading efficiency.

[0031] Another core of the present application is to provide a detection device having the above-mentioned loading and unloading mechanism.

[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] A TRAY, or material tray, is a device used to carry workpieces on the production line during the production of electronic products. The workpiece to be inspected is usually placed on the TRAY, which is then placed on a transport mechanism through a loading mechanism. The tray is then transported to the location of the inspection equipment through the transport mechanism, allowing the workpiece to be inspected for quality.

[0034] After the inspection equipment completes the test, unqualified workpieces are usually removed manually. However, since the hopper is usually fixed, the operator has to move between manual loading and automatic retrieving. The manual loading and retrieving travel is long, resulting in low loading and unloading efficiency.

[0035] For this reason, Figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present application discloses a loading and unloading mechanism, comprising a fixed plate, a pull-out mechanism 100, and a locking mechanism 200. By pulling out the first and second silos 103 and 104 through the pull-out mechanism 100, an empty tray can be placed in the first silo 103 while the empty tray in the second silo 104 is removed. This shortens the manual loading and unloading process and improves loading and unloading efficiency. Furthermore, the locking mechanism 200 can be used to lock the pull-out mechanism 100, preventing it from shaking or shifting, thereby improving the stability of the loading and unloading mechanism.

[0036] The following will be combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 The loading and unloading mechanism disclosed in the embodiment of the present application is specifically explained and illustrated.

[0037] Among them, such as Figure 1As shown, the pulling mechanism 100 includes parallel rails 101, and a slider 102 is provided on a fixed plate. The rails 101 and the slider 102 slide together to realize the pulling action of the pulling mechanism 100. At the same time, two silos are provided on the rails 101. For ease of understanding, the two silos are defined as a first silo 103 and a second silo 104. The first silo 103 is used to store empty trays, and the second silo 104 is used to store unloaded trays. The second silo 104 is located near the area where workpieces are unloaded, so that unloaded workpieces can be placed on the empty trays and stacked on the second silo 104. When loading and unloading is required, the first silo 103 and the second silo 104 can be pulled out by the pulling mechanism 100. The empty trays can be added to the first silo 103 and the unloaded trays in the second silo 104 can be taken out at the same time. This shortens the manual loading and unloading process and improves loading and unloading efficiency.

[0038] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the fixing plate is part of the equipment platform of the detection device, so as to fix other equipment and ensure the stability of the equipment. The fixing plate can be a regular-shaped plate, such as an L-shaped structural plate, a rectangular plate, etc., or a special-shaped plate to meet the actual equipment fixing requirements. At the same time, the number of rails 101 can be two, and the first material bin 103 and the second material bin 104 are coaxially arranged on the two rails 101, so that the first material bin 103 and the second material bin 104 share the same pulling mechanism 100, thereby achieving the effect of pulling the first material bin 103 and the second material bin 104 at the same time, saving installation space, reducing the use of parts, and reducing costs. Of course, the number of tracks 101 can also be four, so that the first bin 103 and the second bin 104 are independently arranged, and the first bin 103 and the second bin 104 are respectively located on two adjacent tracks 101 at different positions, that is, the first bin 103 and the second bin 104 are respectively pulled and pulled by two independent pulling and pulling mechanisms 100, so as to independently control the loading and unloading of materials, thereby achieving more precise loading and unloading. It should be noted that the number of the first bin 103 and the second bin 104 can be one, two or more, respectively, and the number of the first bin 103 and the second bin 104 can also be different, such as one first bin 103 and two second bins 104, or two first bins 103 and one second bin 104. Of course, the number of tracks 101 can be two, so that each first silo 103 and second silo 104 are coaxially arranged on two tracks 101. The number of tracks 101 can also be adapted to the number of first silos 103 and second silos 104, that is, the first silo 103 and second silo 104 are independent of each other or each silo is independent of each other.

[0039] Furthermore, the drawer mechanism 100 includes a retracted state and an extended state. When the first and second bins 103, 104 do not need to be drawn, the drawer mechanism 100 is in the retracted state. To prevent the drawer mechanism 100 from shaking or shifting, the locking mechanism 200 can be used to lock the drawer mechanism 100, thereby preventing the drawer mechanism 100 from shaking or shifting. When loading and unloading are required, the locking mechanism 200 can be used to release the lock of the drawer mechanism 100, and the drawer mechanism 100 can be drawn out to put the drawer mechanism 100 in the extended state, thereby enabling loading and unloading.

[0040] The locking mechanism 200 may be a magnetic element, and a magnetic portion that cooperates with the magnetic element may be provided on the drawer mechanism 100. The magnetic portion may be made of metal. Specifically, the magnetic element may be an electromagnet. When the electromagnet is energized, it becomes magnetic, firmly adhering to the magnetic portion on the drawer mechanism 100, thereby preventing the drawer mechanism 100 from shaking or shifting. When the electromagnet is de-energized, the magnetism of the electromagnet disappears, allowing the drawer mechanism 100 to be drawn.

[0041] Of course, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the locking mechanism 200 can also adopt a buckle, and the pulling mechanism 100 is provided with a limiting portion 105 that cooperates with the buckle 202. Specifically, the locking mechanism 200 is connected to the fixed plate, and the locking mechanism 200 includes a rotating cylinder 201 and a buckle 202 connected to the rotating cylinder 201, so that when the output shaft of the rotating cylinder 201 rotates, the buckle 202 can be driven to rotate. At the same time, the limiting portion 105 on the pulling mechanism 100 is an L-shaped structure, and one end of the limiting portion 105 is connected to the pulling mechanism 100, and the other end of the limiting portion 105 cooperates with the buckle 202. When the rotating cylinder 201 drives the buckle 202 to rotate to the first position, the buckle 202 abuts against the limit portion 105, so that the locking mechanism 200 locks the pulling mechanism 100; when the rotating cylinder 201 drives the buckle 202 to rotate to the second position, the buckle 202 disengages from the limit portion 105, so that the track 101 of the pulling mechanism 100 can slide with the slider 102 of the fixed plate, thereby ensuring that the pulling mechanism 100 can be pulled out and the pulling mechanism 100 is in a pulled-out state.

[0042] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the loading and unloading mechanism also includes a lifting mechanism 300 respectively arranged in the first material bin 103 and the second material bin 104. When the empty material tray on the top layer of the first material bin 103 is taken up, the lifting mechanism 300 in the first material bin 103 lifts the stacked empty material trays in the first material bin 103 until the empty material trays in the first material bin 103 are emptied. At the same time, the lifting mechanism 300 of the second material bin 104 is lowered in sequence until the unloading material trays in the second material bin 104 are full. At this time, the first material bin 103 and the second material bin 104 can be pulled out by the pulling mechanism 100, and the empty material trays are replenished into the first material bin 103, and the unloading material trays in the second material bin 104 are taken away at the same time.

[0043] Specifically, if Figure 2 As shown, the lifting mechanism 300 includes a power unit 301 and a support plate 302. When loading or unloading materials, the material trays can be stacked and placed on the support plate 302, so that the power unit 301 drives the support plate 302 to be raised and lowered, thereby achieving the lifting effect of the material trays. Among them, the power unit 301 can be a screw motor, and the screw rod of the screw motor is connected to the support plate 302 to achieve the lifting and lowering of the support plate 302. Of course, the power unit 301 can also be a telescopic cylinder, and the telescopic rod of the telescopic cylinder is connected to the support plate 302 to achieve the lifting and lowering of the support plate 302.

[0044] Preferably, the power device 301 includes a driving member 3011 and a support leg 3012 connected to the driving member 3011. The support leg 3012 is connected to the support plate 302, so that the driving member 3011 drives the support leg 3012 to rise and fall, thereby driving the support plate 302 to rise and fall. The driving member 3011 can be a guide rail hydraulic lift or a cylinder lift, etc., which is not limited herein.

[0045] Furthermore, to improve the stability of the support legs 3012 supporting the support disc 302, the number of support legs 3012 may be, but is not limited to, two, and may also be three, four, or more, and the support legs 3012 may have an L-shaped structure. The support legs 3012 have two intersecting side surfaces. For ease of understanding, the two side surfaces of the support legs 3012 are defined as a first side surface and a second side surface, respectively. The first side surface of the support leg 3012 supports the support disc 302, and the second side surface of the support leg 3012 is connected to the driving member 3011. Preferably, the connection between the two inner side surfaces of the support legs 3012 is connected by an arcuate transition, that is, the connection between the first inner side surface opposite the first side surface of the support leg 3012 and the second inner side surface opposite the second side surface of the support leg 3012 is connected by an arcuate transition, so as to avoid stress concentration that may cause cracking or fracture of the support legs 3012.

[0046] Furthermore, if Figure 2As shown, in order to facilitate the installation of the pulling mechanism 100, the pulling mechanism 100 also includes a support frame 106 that supports the first material bin 103 and the second material bin 104, and the support frame 106 is located above the track 101. At the same time, the track 101 is connected to the support frame 106 so that the support frame 106 can slide with the track 101. At the same time, the lifting mechanism 300 is fixed on the support frame 106, and a hollow area is provided on the support frame 106 so that the support plate 302 of the lifting mechanism 300 can be freely raised and lowered in the hollow area to avoid interference from the support frame 106. In addition, a plurality of limiting panels 107 are provided on the support frame 106, so that the first material bin 103 and the second material bin 104 are respectively enclosed by each limiting panel 107, and the empty material tray and the unloaded material tray can be limited by the limiting panels 107. Specifically, there are at least four limiting panels 107 corresponding to each material bin to limit the four sides of the material tray and ensure the stable lifting of the material tray.

[0047] The present application also discloses an inspection device including a loading and unloading mechanism. This loading and unloading mechanism is similar to the loading and unloading mechanism disclosed in the above embodiment, and therefore has all the technical effects of the above loading and unloading mechanisms. This document will not be further elaborated here. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the unloading trays placed in the second hopper 104 are trays for unqualified workpieces. Of course, the second hopper 104 can also be used to place trays for qualified workpieces based on actual needs, and this document is not limited to this.

[0048] Furthermore, the detection device also includes a housing, and the pulling mechanism 100 has a pulling end that is easy to pull out, and the pulling end of the pulling mechanism 100 forms a part of the housing, so that the detection device structure is simpler and the operation is more convenient.

Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present application.
