[0022] The preferred embodiments of the utility model are described in detail below with reference to the drawings, so that the advantages and features of the utility model can be more easily understood by the person skilled in the art, and the protection scope of the utility model is more clearly and explicitly defined.

[0023] Reference is made to the drawings Figs. 1 to 3As shown, the device for CMOS chip appearance detection in the embodiment comprises a feeding conveying mechanism 4 for conveying the carrier plate 6, a detection mechanism 3, and a jacking mechanism 5. The feeding conveying mechanism 4 comprises a mounting bracket one 43 and a mounting bracket two 44 arranged in parallel with each other, and a plurality of magnetic wheels 42 capable of moving the carrier plate 6 to below the detection mechanism 3 are arranged on the mounting bracket one 43 and the mounting bracket two 44. The mounting bracket one 43 and the mounting bracket two 44 are arranged opposite to each other and can support the magnetic wheels 42 arranged thereon, so that the magnetic wheels 42 can rotate and convey the carrier plate 6 placed thereon to the next station.

[0024] Specifically, as to the arrangement of the magnetic wheels 42, the principle is that when one of the magnetic wheels 42 rotates, the magnetic pole position changes, and the adjacent magnetic poles of different natures are used to push the other magnetic wheels 42 to rotate, so as to realize non-contact magnetic transmission of power. The above-mentioned magnetic wheels 42 are used as power bridge to convey the carrier plate 6, which can achieve the effect of non-contact, non-friction and no dust. In some embodiments, the surface of the magnetic wheel 42 is sleeved with a friction-resistant rubber ring, so that the conveying of the carrier plate 6 is smoother.

[0025] The jacking mechanism 5 is located below the carrier plate 6 and comprises a jacking driving part, a lifting plate 56 located at the driving end thereof, and a limiting plate 59 located above the lifting plate 56. A limited space for installing a light source plate 57 is left between the lifting plate 56 and the limiting plate 59. The limiting plate 59 is used to support the carrier plate 6 on which the chips to be detected are placed. When the carrier plate 6 moves to the limiting plate 59, the jacking driving part drives the lifting plate 56 to move upward to push the limiting plate 59 and the carrier plate 6 thereon to move upward, so that the carrier plate 6 approaches the detection camera 32, which facilitates the detection camera 32 to take a photo of the plurality of chips thereon for detection, and can effectively improve the efficiency of chip defect detection.

[0026] The light source plate 57 is a light source device used to ensure that light is emitted from the back of the lifting plate 56. By arranging the light source plate 57, the back of the lifting plate 56 can be illuminated, so that the light source can pass through the light-transmitting hole 511 on the lifting plate 56 to illuminate the lower surface of the chip on the carrier plate 6, so that the subsequent detection camera 32 can more accurately capture and detect the appearance of the chip.

[0027] In some embodiments, the jacking driving part is a jacking cylinder 52. The jacking cylinder 52 can drive the lifting plate 56 to move upward or downward by extending or retracting the piston rod, and in turn drive the carrier plate 6 located on the limiting plate 59 to move toward or away from the detection camera 32.

[0028] The detection mechanism 3 comprises a three-axis driving member 31 and a detection camera 32, and a cleaning mechanism is horizontally arranged on the side of the detection camera 32 close to the feeding direction of the carrier plate 6. The three-axis driving member 31 can drive the detection camera 32 to move in the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis directions, so that the detection camera 32 can completely capture and detect the chips on the carrier plate 6, and the detection efficiency of the chips is effectively improved.

[0029] Preferably, the three-axis driving member 31 is a three-axis driving module.

[0030] In some embodiments, the cleaning mechanism is a plasma gun, which can clean the dust or plasma static electricity attached to the surface of the chip before the chip is captured and detected, so as to ensure the accuracy of the subsequent capturing and detecting.

[0031] In some embodiments, a code reader is further arranged on the side of the detection camera 32, which can identify the two-dimensional code corresponding to each chip on the carrier plate 6 below the detection camera 32, and the two-dimensional code contains the position coordinates of each chip, so that the staff can accurately take out the chips with defects for unified storage.

[0032] The feeding conveying mechanism 4 further comprises driving motors 41 arranged on the sides of the mounting bracket one 43 and the mounting bracket two 44, respectively. The magnetic wheels 42 on the mounting bracket one 43 and the mounting bracket two 44 are arranged in an array along the length direction and one-to-one corresponding. The rotating shaft of the driving motor 41 is connected with any magnetic wheel 42 on the same side to drive the magnetic wheel 42 to rotate. Each driving motor 41 drives the magnetic wheel 42 on the same side to rotate, so that the carrier plate 6 on the magnetic wheel 42 can be moved from the feeding port to the detection mechanism 3, and the automatic feeding of the carrier plate 6 is realized.

[0033] It should be noted that the upper surface of the magnetic wheel 42 abuts against the lower surface of the carrier plate 6, so as to stably convey the carrier plate 6.

[0034] Further comprising an adjusting slide rail 45 arranged perpendicularly to the feeding direction of the carrier plate 6, and the mounting bracket two 44 is slidingly arranged on the adjusting slide rail 45. The mounting bracket two 44 can move along the adjusting slide rail 45 towards the mounting bracket one 43 or away from the mounting bracket one 43, so as to adjust the distance between the two magnetic wheels 42 on the mounting bracket two 44, and the distance can meet the transportation feeding of the carrier plate 6 with different widths, and the applicability of the detection equipment is effectively improved.

When the piston rod of the jacking cylinder 52 is extended, the lifting plate 56 and the limiting plate 59 connected with the lifting plate 56 through the connecting column 58 can be pushed to move upwards. In the process of moving upwards, the limiting pins 510 can be inserted into the corresponding positioning holes on the carrier plate 6, so as to position a plurality of chips on the detection section of the carrier plate 6, and ensure that the carrier plate 6 does not move in the chip detection process, and the accuracy of chip detection is ensured.
