Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of membrane switch circuit element processing, and more specifically, to membrane switch circuit element mounting equipment. Background Technology

[0002] During the keyboard manufacturing process, silver paste is used to bond components on the bottom of the keyboard. This improves the conductivity of the silver paste, enabling the components to transmit electrical signals. During the dispensing process, the keyboard membrane is delivered to the processing position and then glued. After that, it is dried in an oven to achieve sealing. Finally, it is tested.

[0003] In existing technologies, during the bonding process of keyboard membranes and electronic components, the limited number of reserved positions for existing components, especially LEDs, restricts the variety of lamps and further reduces the processing space during bonding. This undoubtedly reduces the overall component placement efficiency, thus requiring a placement device that can handle more electronic components and a wider variety of components.

[0026] Example 1:

[0027] Please see Figure 1-4 A membrane switch circuit component mounting device includes an electric conveyor belt 1 and an electric conveyor belt 2. A mounting frame 102 is positioned above the electric conveyor belt 1, and a keyboard membrane 101 is placed on the surface of the electric conveyor belt 1. A display screen 3 is fixedly mounted on the front of the mounting frame 102. A dispensing mechanism 4 is positioned below the mounting frame 102 and above the keyboard membrane 101. A mounting frame 201 is positioned above the electric conveyor belt 2, and a display screen 202 is fixedly mounted on the side of the mounting frame 201. An electric dual-axis moving guide rail 203 is positioned below the mounting frame 201 and above the electric conveyor belt 2, and a suction cup mechanism 5 is fixedly mounted inside the electric dual-axis moving guide rail 203. A component sensing and placement mechanism 6 is fixedly mounted on the front of the electric conveyor belt 2.

[0028] It should be noted that the CCD camera, moving guide rail and related control components used in this application are all existing mature technologies. This application aims to solve the problem that the original electronic components and corresponding LED lights 606 can only be placed in a limited variety and quantity, thus limiting the overall equipment mounting efficiency. Therefore, the specific functional steps of other existing mature technologies will not be elaborated in this application.

[0029] The dispensing mechanism 4 includes a vertical telescopic rod 401. A connecting seat 402 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the vertical telescopic rod 401. A horizontal telescopic rod 403 is fixedly installed on the side of the connecting seat 402. A mounting base 404 is fixedly connected to the end of the horizontal telescopic rod 403. A CCD camera 405 is fixedly installed at the top of the mounting base 404. A dispensing tube 407 is fixedly installed on the front of the mounting base 404. One end of the dispensing tube 407 is fixedly connected to a silver paste input tube 406. The CCD camera 405, the vertical telescopic rod 401, and the horizontal telescopic rod 403 are all electrically connected to the display screen 3. The suction cup mechanism 5 includes a guide rail connecting seat 501. The guide rail connecting seat 501 and an electric dual-axis moving guide rail 203 are fixedly connected to each other. A mounting base 502 is fixedly installed on the front of the guide rail connecting seat 501. A CCD camera 503 is fixedly installed at the top of the mounting base 502. A fixing plate 504 is fixedly installed on the front of the component 2. A controller 505 is fixedly installed inside the fixing plate 504. An electric suction nozzle 506 is fixedly installed in the middle of the fixing plate 504. The CCD camera 503 and the controller 505 are electrically connected to each other. The controller 505 and the electric suction nozzle 506 are electrically connected to each other. The CCD camera 503 is also electrically connected to the electric dual-axis moving guide rail 203. The component sensing and placement mechanism 6 includes a mounting base plate 601. A sensing plate 602 is fixedly installed on the inner top surface of the mounting base plate 601. A plurality of sensing slots 603 are fixedly installed on the surface of the sensing plate 602. A plurality of placement slots 604 are opened on the top surface of the mounting base plate 601. A component body 605 is inserted into the placement slot 604. An LED light 606 is fixedly installed on the top of the component body 605. The side of the component body 605 near the sensing plate 602 is electrically connected to the sensing slot 603.

[0030] Specifically, the CCD camera identifies the position signal and then transmits the signal to the control terminal. The control terminal then drives the corresponding moving device, such as the electric dual-axis moving guide rail 203 and the electric conveyor belt 1. Users can observe the image captured by the corresponding CCD camera in real time through the display screen 3 and the display screen 202, which facilitates manual monitoring.

[0031] The component sensing placement mechanism 6 has multiple placement slots 604 that can hold multiple component bodies 605. The internal side of the component body 605 is electrically connected to the sensing slot 603, which allows the LED light 606 to be observed during insertion and bonding to ensure that the LED light 606 is properly sensed. This prevents damaged LED lights 606 from being bonded to the keyboard membrane 101, thus avoiding a drop in product quality. This ensures production quality. Most importantly, the number and types of component bodies 605 that can be placed in multiple placement slots 604 can be greatly increased. This allows the equipment to maintain the bonding speed when installing multiple specifications and quantities of components, thus greatly improving the overall bonding efficiency of the equipment. In addition, the installation requirements of the placement slots 604 increase the operating space of the corresponding mounting frame 201, making bonding more convenient and efficient. It also provides a more convenient space for staff to repair various internal components, further improving the practicality of the overall device.

[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The keyboard membrane 101 moves from the left end of the electric conveyor belt 1 and stops after moving to a suitable position. After the CCD camera 405 identifies the area, it controls the vertical telescopic rod 401 and the horizontal telescopic rod 403 to move together to the corresponding dispensing position for dispensing. After dispensing, the existing drying system inside the mounting bracket 102 is used for drying. Then, the keyboard membrane 101 moves to the electric conveyor belt 2. According to the initially predetermined type and specifications, the electric suction nozzle 506 picks up the corresponding LED light 606 from above the placement slot 604. Then, the entire assembly is moved above the electric conveyor belt 2 by the electric dual-axis moving guide rail 203. After the CCD camera 503 identifies the position of the keyboard membrane 101, it transmits a signal to the controller 505. The controller 505 then controls the electric suction nozzle 506 to place the LED light 606 in the corresponding position.

[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model; however, the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and its improved concept, should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
