DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0043] 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.
[0044] In this application, terms such as "upper," "lower," "inner," and "outer" indicate positions or locations based on those shown in the accompanying drawings. These terms are intended to better describe this application and its embodiments and are not intended to limit the devices, elements, or components indicated to specific positions, or to their construction or operation in a specific position.
[0045] Furthermore, some of the above terms may be used to express other meanings besides indicating a position or location. For example, the term "on" may also be used to express a dependency or connection in certain circumstances. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0046] Furthermore, the terms "installed," "disposed," "connected," and "connected" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, removable connections, or integral structures; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediary; or internal communication between two devices, elements, or components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0047] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are primarily used to distinguish between different devices, elements, or components (which may or may not be of the same type and configuration), and are not intended to indicate or imply the relative importance or quantity of the devices, elements, or components indicated. Unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.
[0048] Component testing mainly includes performance, reliability and life tests. These tests are designed to ensure that the components can work reliably and meet predetermined performance standards, thereby ensuring the quality and reliability of the components.
[0049] During testing, it is usually necessary to use specialized testing instruments to test various parameters of components. During the testing process, a handling device is required to transport the component materials to the testing station of the testing instrument for testing.
[0050] However, the transport device in the related art usually has only one transport component, which can only transport one material to the testing station at a time. This transport method will result in slow material transport efficiency, thereby affecting the material testing efficiency.
[0051] In view of this, embodiments of the present application disclose a material handling device and testing system, which comprises two handling mechanisms movably disposed on a base along a first direction for handling materials. The base is further provided with a first drive mechanism and a second drive mechanism, each connected to the two handling mechanisms. The first drive mechanism is used to drive the two handling mechanisms to move relative to the base in a second direction to move materials toward or away from a testing station, and the second drive mechanism is used to drive the two handling mechanisms to move relative to the base in the first direction to transport materials. The provision of two handling mechanisms allows materials to be transported to the testing station separately, which, on the one hand, can help improve material handling efficiency and testing efficiency. On the other hand, since the handling mechanisms can move in the second direction, the handling mechanisms can be used to consistently compress and position the materials during the material testing process, preventing the materials from shifting during the testing process and affecting the test results, thereby improving the accuracy of the material testing. Furthermore, by utilizing the handling mechanisms to compress and position the materials during the testing process, there is no need for an additional material clamping assembly, thereby simplifying the structural design of the testing device and, in turn, simplifying the assembly difficulty of the testing device.
[0052] The technical solution of the present application will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and drawings.
[0053] See also Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 is a structural diagram of a material handling device disclosed in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 is a structural schematic diagram of the material handling device disclosed in the embodiment of the present application from another perspective, Figure 3 : is a top view of the material handling device disclosed in an embodiment of the present application. The material handling device 100 includes a base 1, two handling mechanisms 2, a first drive mechanism 3, and a second drive mechanism 4. The handling mechanisms 2 are configured to handle materials. The two handling mechanisms 2 are movably arranged on the base 1 along a first direction X, and the two handling mechanisms 2 are spaced apart along the first direction X. The first drive mechanism 3 is arranged on the base 1, and the first drive mechanism 3 is connected to the two handling mechanisms 2. The first drive mechanism 3 is configured to drive the two handling mechanisms 2 to move relative to the base 1 along a second direction Y to move the materials toward or away from the test station 2013. The second drive mechanism 4 is arranged on the base 1, and the second drive mechanism 4 is connected to the two handling mechanisms 2. The second drive mechanism 4 is configured to drive the two handling mechanisms 2 to move relative to the base 1 along the first direction X to handle materials.
[0054] The second direction Y intersects the first direction X, and the second direction Y is the height direction of the base 1 .
[0055] The material handling device 100 disclosed in this application comprises a second drive mechanism 4 disposed on a base 1 and connected to two handling mechanisms 2. The second drive mechanism 4 is configured to drive the two handling mechanisms 2 to move relative to the base 1 in a first direction X to transport materials. The second drive mechanism 4 enables the two handling mechanisms 2 to move relative to the base 1 in the first direction X, thereby enabling both handling mechanisms 2 to transport materials in the first direction X. This facilitates simultaneous material handling by both handling mechanisms 2, thereby improving material handling efficiency compared to providing only a single handling mechanism 2.
[0056] In addition, the present application also provides a first drive mechanism 3 on the base 1, connected to the two transport mechanisms 2. The first drive mechanism 3 is configured to drive the two transport mechanisms 2 to move relative to the base 1 in the second direction Y, thereby moving materials toward or away from the testing station 2013. The first drive mechanism 3 facilitates movement of the two transport mechanisms 2 relative to the base 1 in the second direction Y, thereby enabling the transport mechanisms 2 to transport materials to or away from the testing station 2013. Furthermore, both transport mechanisms 2 can transport materials to or away from the testing station 2013. This facilitates the immediate delivery of materials to the testing station 2013 by one transport mechanism 2 after the other transport mechanism 2 has moved the materials away from the testing station 2013. This improves the efficiency of transporting materials to the testing station 2013, thereby improving the efficiency of material testing, compared to providing only one transport mechanism 2.
[0057] In addition, by setting up a first driving mechanism 3 and a second driving mechanism 4 to drive the movement of the two conveying mechanisms 2, compared with the method of manually conveying materials to the testing station 2013, this electric control method helps to improve the control accuracy of the two conveying mechanisms 2, and is easier to operate. It also helps to improve the efficiency of material handling, and thus helps to improve the testing efficiency of materials.
[0058] It can be understood that the above-mentioned materials may include but are not limited to semiconductor chips.
[0059] Optionally, see Figures 1 to 3 The base 1 may be a strip-shaped base, for example, a square base 1 . In this case, the first direction X may be the length direction of the base 1 , and the second direction Y may be the height direction of the base 1 .
[0060] It is understandable that, as another example, the base 1 may also be a circular base 1 or a base 1 of other shapes, and this application does not make any specific limitation on this.
[0061] Optionally, the first driving mechanism 3, the second driving mechanism 4 and the carrying mechanism 2 described above can be arranged on the upper surface of the base 1, or can also be arranged on the lower surface of the base 1, or part (for example, the first driving mechanism 3 and the second driving mechanism 4) can be arranged on the upper surface of the base 1, and the other part (for example, the carrying mechanism 2) can be arranged on the lower surface of the base 1. The specific arrangement can be determined according to the actual situation, and the present embodiment does not make specific limitations in this regard.
[0062] Optionally, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 4 , Figure 4 is a schematic view of the structure of the carrying mechanism and the base disclosed in the embodiments of the present application. The base 1 is provided with a sliding groove 11 extending through in the second direction Y, the sliding groove 11 extends in the first direction X, and the two carrying mechanisms 2 can be slidably arranged in the sliding groove 11, so that the two carrying mechanisms 2 can move in the first direction X and the second direction Y relative to the sliding groove 11. By arranging the sliding groove 11 extending in the first direction X on the base 1, the two carrying mechanisms 2 can be slidably arranged in the sliding groove 11, which helps to reduce the space occupied by the material carrying device 100.
[0063] Specifically, the carrying mechanism 2 can at least partially pass through the sliding groove 11, so that the carrying mechanism 2 can move up and down (such as up and down in the paper surface direction in the figure) relative to the sliding groove 11 in the second direction Y. When taking materials, the carrying mechanism 2 moves downward relative to the sliding groove 11 in the second direction Y to reach the material taking station to take materials. After the materials are taken, the carrying mechanism 2 moves upward in the second direction Y to leave the material taking station, and then the carrying mechanism 2 carries the materials to the test station 2013. Subsequently, the carrying mechanism 2 moves downward relative to the sliding groove 11 in the second direction Y, and the materials are pressed in the test station 2013, and the materials are tested. In this way, when the materials are carried to the test station 2013 for testing, the carrying mechanism 2 can move downward relative to the sliding groove 11, so as to press the materials, so as to avoid the displacement of the materials during the testing process.
[0064] In some embodiments, referring back to Figures 1 to 3 , the first driving mechanism 3 includes two driving assemblies 31, and the two driving assemblies 31 are respectively connected with the two carrying mechanisms 2, and each driving mechanism is configured to drive the carrying mechanism 2 connected therewith to move in the second direction Y. By arranging the two driving assemblies 31 respectively connected with the two carrying mechanisms 2, each driving assembly 31 can drive the carrying mechanism 2 connected with the driving assembly 31 to move in the second direction Y, which helps to drive the two carrying mechanisms 2 to move in the second direction Y by the two driving assemblies 31, thereby helping to improve the control flexibility of the material carrying assembly.
[0065] Optionally, referring to Figure 3 , in combination with Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the connection between the first drive assembly and the handling mechanism disclosed in an embodiment of the present application. The material handling device 100 further includes a mounting frame 5, which is disposed on the base 1 and extends along the second direction Y. The drive assembly 31 can be mounted on the mounting frame 5. By mounting the mounting frame 5 on the base 1, the drive assembly 31 is positioned at the end of the mounting frame 5 facing away from the base 1, thereby reducing the space occupied by the drive assembly 31.
[0066] It is understandable that the mounting frame 5 can be a long strip mounting frame, for example, a square mounting frame 5. Of course, as other examples, the mounting frame 5 can also be a circular mounting frame 5 or a mounting frame 5 of other shapes, and this application does not make specific limitations on this.
[0067] It can be understood that the mounting frame 5 can be one or two. For example, when the mounting frame 5 is one mounting frame 5, the two drive components 31 can be installed on the mounting frame 5, which helps to reduce the number of mounting frames 5 and also helps to integrate the two drive components 31 into one mounting frame 5, thereby reducing the space occupied by the two drive components 31.
[0068] Take the installation frame 5 as an example. Figure 3 , combined with Figure 5 and Figure 6 The aforementioned mounting frames 5 include two mounting frames 5 , which are disposed on the base 1 facing each other and spaced apart along the third direction Z. Each drive assembly 31 is disposed on a corresponding mounting frame 5 , and the second drive mechanism 4 is located between the two mounting frames 5 along the third direction Z. The third direction Z intersects both the first direction X and the second direction Y. By disposing two mounting frames 5 facing each other and spaced apart along the width of the base 1 , with the drive assemblies 31 disposed on each mounting frame 5 and the second drive mechanism 4 located between the mounting frames 5 , this arrangement helps reduce the space occupied by the first drive mechanism 3 and the second drive mechanism 4 , thereby helping to reduce the overall space occupied by the material handling device 100 .
[0069] In some embodiments, the drive assembly 31 includes a first drive member 311 and a transmission member 312 connected to the first drive member 311. The first drive member 311 and the transmission member 312 are both disposed at an end of the mounting frame 5 facing away from the base 1, and the transmission member 312 is connected to the conveying mechanism 2. The first drive member 311 is configured to drive the transmission member 312 to move in the second direction Y, thereby driving the conveying mechanism 2 to move in the second direction Y. The first drive member 311 can drive the transmission member 312 to move in the second direction Y, thereby driving the conveying mechanism 2 to move in the second direction Y. This facilitates driving the conveying mechanism 2 in the second direction Y by the first drive member 311, thereby making the movement of the conveying mechanism 2 in the second direction Y more controllable.
[0070] Optionally, the first driving member 311 may be a motor or a cylinder, etc., which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0071] For some examples, see Figure 3 , combined with Figure 5 and Figure 6 The transmission member 312 may include a ball screw and a belt. The ball screw includes a lead screw and a nut. The lead screw extends in the second direction Y. The top end of the lead screw is connected to the first drive member 311 via a belt drive. The first drive member 311 is disposed on the top of the mounting frame 5. The bottom end of the lead screw is passed through a limiter 313, which is disposed on the mounting frame 5. The limiter 313 is configured to limit the position of the lead screw to prevent the lead screw from shifting during use, thereby causing the movement path of the transport device in the second direction Y to shift. The nut is threadedly connected to the lead screw and is also connected to the transport mechanism 2. The first drive member 311 drives the lead screw to rotate, causing the nut to move in the second direction Y, thereby driving the transport mechanism 2 to move in the second direction Y. By arranging the first drive member 311 at the top of the mounting frame 5, it is possible to avoid providing a clearance for the movement of the transport mechanism 2 in the first direction X, thereby preventing interference. In addition, the first driving member 311 is provided on the top of the mounting frame 5 , and the upper space of the base 1 can also be utilized, making the overall structure of the transport mechanism 2 more compact.
[0072] It can be understood that using the ball screw as the transmission member 312 helps to improve the transmission efficiency between the first driving member 311 and the transmission member 312, so as to increase the moving speed of the conveying mechanism 2 along the second direction Y, thereby helping to improve the efficiency of the conveying mechanism 2 in conveying materials.
[0073] It is understandable that, as another example, the transmission member 312 may also be a gear rack, etc., and this embodiment does not make any specific limitation to this.
[0074] Optionally, see Figures 5 to 7 , Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the drive assembly disclosed in an embodiment of the present application. The drive assembly 31 further includes a first anti-collision member 314, which is disposed on the mounting bracket 5 and is located above the stop member 313. The first anti-collision member 314 is used to prevent the nut from colliding with the stop member 313 when moving along the second direction Y, thereby helping to increase the service life of the stop member 313 and, in turn, the overall service life of the material handling device 100.
[0075] It is understandable that the material of the first anti-collision component 314 can be flexible materials such as rubber and polyvinyl chloride, and this embodiment does not specifically limit this.
[0076] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figures 5 to 7 The first driving mechanism 3 further comprises a first sliding rail 32, the first sliding rail 32 is arranged on the transmission member 312, the first sliding rail 32 extends along the first direction X, and the carrying mechanism 2 is slidably connected to the first sliding rail 32 along the first direction X. By arranging the first sliding rail 32 extending along the first direction X, and the first sliding rail 32 is arranged on the transmission member 312, and the carrying mechanism 2 is slidably connected to the first sliding rail 32, so that the carrying mechanism 2 is connected to the transmission member 312 through the first sliding rail 32, and then the carrying mechanism 2 can be driven to move along the second direction Y through the transmission member 312, and can also slide along the extension direction of the first sliding rail 32 to move the carrying mechanism 2 along the first direction X. And this arrangement helps to avoid interference between the components of the material carrying device 100 when the carrying mechanism 2 moves along the first direction X and the second direction Y.
[0077] Optionally, please refer to Figures 5 to 7 The carrying mechanism 2 is provided with a sliding block, and the sliding block is slidably connected with the first sliding rail 32. This arrangement helps to improve the smoothness of the carrying mechanism 2 sliding along the first sliding rail 32.
[0078] It can be understood that, as other examples, the carrying mechanism 2 can also be provided with a pulley, and the first sliding rail 32 corresponds to a sliding groove 11, and the pulley is embedded in the sliding groove 11 to slide. This embodiment does not make specific limitation on this.
[0079] Optionally, please refer to Figures 5 to 7 The first driving mechanism 3 further comprises a second sliding rail 33, the second sliding rail 33 is arranged on the mounting frame 5, the second sliding rail 33 is arranged in a spaced manner with the transmission member 312, the second sliding rail 33 extends along the second direction Y, and the first sliding rail 32 is slidably connected to the second sliding rail 33 along the second direction Y. By arranging the second sliding rail 33 extending along the second direction Y, and the first sliding rail 32 is slidably connected to the second sliding rail 33, so that the movement of the carrying mechanism 2 along the second direction Y can be guided through the second sliding rail 33, and then the movement path of the carrying mechanism 2 along the second direction Y can be more accurate.
[0080] It is understood that one second slide rail 33 can be provided, or two second slide rails 33 can be provided spaced apart along the first direction X. Taking the provision of one second slide rail 33 as an example, the second slide rail 33 can be located on either side of the transmission member 312 along the first direction X, thereby reducing the number of guide components required and, in turn, reducing the cost of the material handling device 100. Taking the provision of two second slide rails 33 as an example, the two second slide rails 33 are located on either side of the transmission member 312 along the first direction X. Compared to providing only one second slide rail 33, the provision of two second slide rails 33 can improve the guidance accuracy of the movement of the transport mechanism 2 along the second direction Y, thereby making the movement path of the transport mechanism 2 along the second direction Y more precise.
[0081] It is understandable that the second slide rail 33 has the same structure as the first slide rail 32 , and this embodiment will not elaborate on this.
[0082] It is understandable that the material of the first slide rail 32 and the second slide rail 33 can be stainless steel, aluminum alloy, steel, plastic or cast iron, etc., and this embodiment does not make any specific limitation on this.
[0083] Optionally, see Figure 8 , Figure 8 Schematic diagram of the structure of the second drive mechanism and the conveying mechanism disclosed in an embodiment of the present application. The second drive mechanism 4 includes a second drive member 41, a drive shaft 42, and a connecting member 43. The second drive member 41 is disposed at one end of the base 1 along the first direction X. The drive shaft 42 extends along the first direction X. One end of the drive shaft 42 is connected to the second drive member 41. The connecting member 43 is sleeved on the drive shaft 42 and threadedly connected to the drive shaft 42. The connecting member 43 is disposed between the two conveying mechanisms 2 along the first direction X and is connected to the two conveying mechanisms 2. The connecting member 43 is a connecting block having a certain length along the third direction Z and a certain width along the first direction X. The second drive member 41 is configured to drive the drive shaft 42 to rotate to drive the connecting member 43 to move along the first direction X, so that the two conveying mechanisms 2 move synchronously along the first direction X. The two transport mechanisms 2 are connected by a connecting member 43. The connecting member 43 is connected to the second drive member 41 via the drive shaft 42. This allows a single drive member to simultaneously drive both transport mechanisms 2 in the first direction X, reducing the number of drive mechanisms required. This arrangement not only helps reduce the overall cost of the material handling device 100, but also reduces the control complexity of the two transport mechanisms 2. Furthermore, the threaded connection between the connecting member 43 and the drive shaft 42 improves the accuracy of the second drive member 41 driving the connecting member 43 on the drive shaft 42, thereby facilitating precise control of the position of the transport mechanisms 2 in the first direction X.
[0084] Optionally, see Figure 8The connecting piece 43 can include a connecting block 431 and a connecting plate 432. The connecting block 431 extends along the third direction, and both ends of the connecting block 431 along the third direction are located outside the sliding groove 11, that is, the connecting block 431 spans the sliding groove 11. Both the conveying mechanisms 2 are connected to both sides of the connecting block 431 along the first direction X. Both ends of the connecting block 431 along the third direction Z are respectively provided with two connecting plates 432. Both the connecting plates 432 are respectively located at both ends of the connecting block 431 along the first direction X. The connecting plate 432 is located at the lower end of the connecting block 431 along the second direction, and is slidably connected to the base 1. By spanning the sliding groove along the third direction Z by the connecting block 431, the conveying mechanisms 2 are respectively connected to both sides of the connecting block 431, and both ends of the connecting block 431 are respectively provided with the connecting plates 432 which are slidably connected to the base 1. This helps to increase the support force of the connecting block 431 on the conveying mechanisms 2 by the connecting plates 432, and helps to improve the connection stability between the connecting block 431 and the base 1, so as to avoid shaking of the conveying mechanisms 2 during movement along the second direction Y due to unstable structure.
[0085] It can be understood that the material of the connecting piece 43 can be stainless steel, iron, plastic, etc., which is not limited in the embodiment.
[0086] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 8 The second driving mechanism 4 further includes a shaft coupling 44, a first support seat 45 and a second support seat 46. The first support seat 45 is arranged at one end of the base 1 along the first direction X. The second driving member 41 is connected to the first support seat 45 along the first direction X. The output end of the second driving member 41 penetrates the first support seat 45 along the first direction X. The driving shaft 42 penetrates the first support seat 45 near one end of the second driving member 41, and is connected to the output end of the second driving member 41 through the shaft coupling 44. The second support seat 46 is arranged near the other end of the base 1 away from the second driving member 41. The other end of the driving shaft 42 penetrates the second support seat 46. By arranging the shaft coupling 44 to connect the output end of the second driving member 41 and the driving shaft 42, it helps to absorb the vibration generated by the second driving member 41, the output end of the second driving member 41 and the driving shaft 42 through the shaft coupling 44, thereby helping to improve the running stability of the second driving mechanism 4. In addition, by arranging the second driving member 41, the shaft coupling 44 and the driving shaft 42 on the first support seat 45 and the second support seat 46 respectively, compared with being arranged directly on the base 1, it helps to reduce the influence of the vibration generated thereby on other components in the material conveying device 100.
[0087] It can be understood that the second driving member 41 is of the same type as the first driving member 311, and the embodiment will not be described in detail.
[0088] It is understandable that the first support base 45 and the second support base 46 are made of the same material as the base 1 , and this embodiment does not impose any specific limitation on this.
[0089] Optionally, see Figure 8 Second anti-collision members 451 are respectively provided on the first support seat 45 and the second support seat 46 along the first direction X. The two second anti-collision members 451 are arranged facing each other and are used to prevent the connecting member 43 from colliding with the first support seat 45 or the second support seat 46 when moving along the first direction X. The provision of the two second anti-collision members 451 helps prevent the connecting member 43 from colliding with the first support seat 45 or the second support seat 46 when moving along the first direction X, thereby helping to ensure the normal operation of the material handling device 100.
[0090] It is understandable that the material of the second anti-collision component 451 is the same as the material of the first anti-collision component 314 , and this embodiment does not impose any specific limitation on this.
[0091] For some examples, see Figure 8 , combined with Figure 9 , Figure 9 Schematic diagram of the structure of the connection between the two transport mechanisms disclosed in an embodiment of the present application. The second drive mechanism 4 also includes two third slide rails 47, which are respectively provided on either side of the connecting member 43 along the first direction X. The two third slide rails 47 extend along the second direction Y. The two third slide rails 47 are configured to be connected to the two transport mechanisms 2, respectively, to enable the two transport mechanisms 2 to move along the second direction Y. The provision of two third slide rails 47 on either side of the connecting member 43 along the first direction X, respectively connected to the two transport mechanisms 2, facilitates the movement of the two transport mechanisms 2 relative to the connecting member 43 along the second direction Y.
[0092] It is understandable that the structure and material of the third slide rail 47 are the same as those of the first slide rail 32 , and this embodiment does not specifically limit this.
[0093] Optionally, see Figure 8 The second driving mechanism 4 further includes a fourth slide rail 48, which is disposed on the base 1 and extends along the first direction X. In the third direction Z, the fourth slide rail 48 is spaced apart between the transport mechanism 2 and the mounting frame 5, and the connector 43 is slidably connected to the fourth slide rail 48. The provision of the fourth slide rail 48 along the first direction X and the slidable connection of the connector 43 to the fourth slide rail 48 help guide the movement of the connector 43 along the first direction X, thereby helping to improve the accuracy of the movement of the connector 43 along the first direction X, thereby helping to improve the accuracy of the movement of the two transport mechanisms 2 along the first direction X.
[0094] It is understood that the aforementioned fourth slide rail 48 can be provided as one or two spaced apart along the third direction Z. Taking the provision of one fourth slide rail 48 as an example, the fourth slide rail 48 can be located between any mounting brackets 5 of the transport mechanism 2 along the third direction Z, thereby reducing the number of guide components required and, in turn, the cost of the material handling device 100. Taking the provision of two fourth slide rails 48 as an example, the two fourth slide rails 48 are located on either side of the transport mechanism 2 along the third direction Z. The provision of two fourth slide rails 48, compared to providing only one fourth slide rail 48, helps improve the guidance accuracy of the transport mechanism 2 along the first direction X, thereby further facilitating a more precise movement path of the transport mechanism 2 along the first direction X.
[0095] It is understandable that the structure and material of the fourth slide rail 48 are the same as those of the first slide rail 32 , and this embodiment does not specifically limit this.
[0096] For some examples, see Figure 10 , Figure 10 It is a structural diagram of the transport mechanism disclosed in the embodiment of the present application. The transport mechanism 2 includes a transport arm 21, a lower pressure plate 22 and an adsorption component 23. The top end of the transport arm 21 is connected to the first drive mechanism 3. The transport arm 21 extends along the second direction Y. The lower pressure plate 22 is arranged at the bottom of the transport arm 21. The adsorption component 23 is arranged on the side of the lower pressure plate 22 away from the transport arm 21. The adsorption component 23 is configured to absorb materials. By arranging the lower pressure plate 22 and the adsorption component 23 at the lower end of the transport arm 21, on the one hand, it helps to absorb materials through the adsorption component 23 so as to transport the materials through the transport arm 21. On the other hand, it helps to press the materials down through the lower pressure plate 22, which helps to press the materials on the test station 2013 for testing, thereby preventing the materials from shifting during the test process.
[0097] It is understandable that the above-mentioned adsorption component 23 can be a suction nozzle or a suction cup, etc., and this embodiment does not make any specific limitation to this.
[0098] It is understandable that the material of the transport arm 21 and the lower pressing plate 22 may be stainless steel, alloy steel, iron, etc., and this embodiment does not impose any specific limitation on this.
[0099] Optionally, see Figure 10 The lower pressing plate 22 is provided with a fixing member 221, which is configured to be connected to the adsorption component 23 to fix the adsorption component 23 on the lower pressing plate 22. By providing the fixing member 221, it is helpful to make the adsorption component 23 and the lower pressing plate 22 tightly connected.
[0100] It is understandable that the fixing member 221 may be a snap or threaded connector (such as a bolt and a nut), etc., and this embodiment does not specifically limit this.
[0101] See also Figure 11 , Figure 11 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the test system disclosed in an embodiment of the present application. In a second aspect, the present application further discloses a test system 200, comprising a workbench 201, a testing device 202, and the material handling device 100 described in the first aspect above, the material handling device 100 being disposed above the workbench 201. The workbench 201 has a surface comprising a first material retrieving station 2011, a second material retrieving station 2012, and a testing station 2013. The first material retrieving station 2011 and the second material retrieving station 2012 are configured to place materials, and the testing station 2013 is located between the first material retrieving station 2011 and the second material retrieving station 2012 along a first direction X. One of the transport mechanisms 2 is configured to move along the first direction X between the first material retrieving station 2011 and the testing station 2013, while the other transport mechanism 2 is configured to move along the first direction X between the second material retrieving station 2012 and the testing station 2013. The testing device 202 is disposed at the testing station 2013 and is configured to test the material located at the testing station 2013. By respectively disposing the first and second material retrieving stations 2011, 2012, and the testing station 2013 on the workbench 201, and the testing device 202 disposed in the testing station 2013, the material can be tested. This facilitates the two transport mechanisms 2 to respectively retrieve materials from the first and second material retrieving stations 2011, 2012, and transport the materials to the testing station 2013 for testing, thereby improving the material handling efficiency of the material handling device 100 and, in turn, improving the material testing efficiency.
[0102] It is understandable that the above-mentioned testing device 202 can be an electrical parameter measuring instrument or a chip burning machine, etc. The specific testing device 202 can be selected according to actual testing requirements, and this embodiment does not make any specific limitation on this.
[0103] Among them, the material handling device 100 in the embodiment of the present application can have the same structure as any material handling device 100 in the above embodiments, and can bring the same or similar beneficial effects. For details, please refer to the description in the above embodiments, and the embodiment of the present application will not be repeated here.
[0104] It can be understood that along the first direction X, the distance between the above-mentioned two conveying mechanisms 2 is the same as the distance between the first material retrieving station 2011 or the second material retrieving station 2012 and the testing station 2013, so that when one of the two conveying mechanisms 2 is at the material retrieving station, the other is at the testing station 2013. This helps one conveying mechanism 2 to transport materials from the testing station 2013 to the testing station 2013 and conduct tests, while the other conveying mechanism 2 is retrieving materials at the material retrieving station.
[0105] The following briefly describes the process of material handling using the material handling device 100 of the present application:
[0106] Taking the two transport mechanisms 2 as an example, namely the first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 2, when the connecting member 43 moves along the first direction X, placing the first transport mechanism 2 above the first retrieving station 2011, the first transport mechanism 2 moves downward along the second direction Y to the first retrieving station 2011. After the suction component 23 absorbs the material, the first transport mechanism 2 moves upward along the second direction Y to move out of the first retrieving station 2011. Subsequently, the connecting member 43 moves along the first direction X, placing the first transport mechanism 2 above the testing station 2013. The first transport mechanism 2 moves downward along the second direction Y to the testing station 2013, where the material is tested using the testing device 202 within the testing station 2013. Simultaneously, the second transport mechanism 2 is located above the second retrieving station 2012. The second transport mechanism 2 moves downward along the second direction Y to the second retrieving station 2012. After the suction component 23 absorbs the material, the second transport mechanism 2 moves upward along the second direction Y to move out of the second retrieving station 2012. After the test is completed, the first transport mechanism 2 located at the testing station 2013 moves upward in the second direction Y to remove the first transport mechanism 2 from the testing station 2013. The connector 43 moves along the first direction X to return the first transport mechanism 2 to the first material retrieving station 2011, where the tested material is placed on the workbench 201 and the suction component 23 re-absorbs the material. Simultaneously, the second transport mechanism 2, located above the testing station 2013, moves downward in the second direction Y to the testing station 2013, where the testing device 202 within the testing station 2013 tests the material. These steps are repeated to continuously transport and test the material.
