Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chip mounting equipment technology, and in particular to a chip mounting device for a chip mounter. Background Technology
[0002] The placement unit of a pick-and-place machine is a crucial component in modern electronics manufacturing. Its main function is to automatically and precisely place surface mount components (SMTs) onto printed circuit boards (PCBs). With the continuous development of electronic technology, especially in the fields of consumer electronics and communication equipment, the demand for high efficiency and high precision is increasing, making the role of pick-and-place machines increasingly prominent. A pick-and-place unit typically consists of several key components, including a drive system, a conveyor belt, a pick-and-place mechanism, and a vision inspection system. The drive system provides power, enabling the pick-and-place machine to move and position quickly; the conveyor belt ensures smooth movement of the PCB during production; the pick-and-place mechanism precisely picks up components from the tape or cassette and places them in designated positions using methods such as vacuum suction; and the vision inspection system ensures component accuracy and placement quality, avoiding potential production defects.
[0003] In some existing pick-and-place machines, the circuit board is usually placed on a conveyor belt during use. During the placement process, the pick-and-place machine applies downward pressure. Because the conveyor belt is relatively soft, the circuit board is prone to displacement during the pressing process. Therefore, this problem needs to be solved. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a chip mounting device for a chip mounter.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A placement device for a pick-and-place machine includes an operating table. A conveyor belt is rotatably connected to the top of the operating table. A rotating mechanism for rotating the conveyor belt is provided on one side of the conveyor belt. Two reciprocating screws are symmetrically slidably connected to the top of the operating table. A positioning plate is fixedly connected to the end of each of the two reciprocating screws near the conveyor belt. A moving mechanism for moving the reciprocating screws is provided on the surface of each of the two reciprocating screws away from the positioning plate. A gantry is fixedly connected to the top of the operating table. Two hydraulic rods are fixedly connected to the top of the gantry. The bottom of the two hydraulic rods is fixedly connected to the same connecting plate. A pressing mechanism for pressing the circuit board is provided on the bottom side of the connecting plate near the two positioning plates. The positioning plate can prevent the circuit board from being misaligned.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the rotating mechanism has two rollers, both of which are rotatably connected to one side of the operating table. The conveyor belt is fitted onto the surface of the two rollers. A first rotating shaft is rotatably connected to one side of the operating table. Both ends of the first rotating shaft are fitted with missing gears. A motor is fixedly connected to one end of the first rotating shaft, and the motor is fixedly connected to one side of the operating table. A second rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the surface of the operating table near the two missing gears. A first gear is fitted onto the surface of the two second rotating shafts near the missing gears. Both first gears cooperate with the missing gears. A first synchronous pulley is fitted onto the surface of the two second rotating shafts. A second synchronous pulley is fitted onto the end of one of the rollers near the two first synchronous pulleys. The same synchronous belt is fitted onto the surface of the first and second synchronous pulleys. The first gears enable the conveyor belt to rotate.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the moving mechanism includes a second gear, which is rotatably connected to one side of the operating table, and a reciprocating screw is sleeved on one side of the second gear. The second gear and the reciprocating screw are configured to cooperate with each other. Two limiting rods are fixedly connected to the surface of the positioning plate near the second gear, and both limiting rods are slidably connected to one side of the operating table. The second gear cooperates with the missing gear. A support plate is fixedly connected inside the operating table near the conveyor belt. The positioning plate can be moved by the setting of the second gear.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the pressing mechanism includes a slide rod, which is slidably connected to the top of the connecting plate. A pressure plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slide rod. A spring is sleeved on the surface of the slide rod. The top end of the spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate, and the bottom end of the spring is fixedly connected to the top of the pressure plate. A suction cup is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate. By setting the pressure plate, the circuit board can be pressed.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0011] 1. This utility model employs a technical solution of fixing the circuit board with pressure plates, thus preventing displacement of the circuit board during the mounting process. This effectively solves the problem that the circuit board is prone to displacement during pressing due to the softness of the conveyor belt. A suction cup is installed at the bottom of the hydraulic rod, allowing the mounting operation to be performed when the hydraulic rod moves the suction cup downwards. Pressure plates are also installed on both sides of the suction cup, with the pressure plates being the bottom of the suction cup. When the suction cup moves downwards, the pressure plates will contact the circuit board first, thereby fixing the circuit board and preventing displacement during the mounting process.

The motor 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the operating table 1. A second rotating shaft 403 is rotatably connected to the surface of the operating table 1 near the two missing gears 402. A first gear 404 is fitted on the surface of the two second rotating shafts 403 near the missing gears 402. Both first gears 404 cooperate with the missing gears 402. A first synchronous pulley 405 is fitted on the surface of the two second rotating shafts 403. A second synchronous pulley 406 is fitted on the end of one of the rollers 201 near the two first synchronous pulleys 405. The same synchronous belt 407 is fitted on the surfaces of the first synchronous pulleys 405 and the second synchronous pulleys 406. The first gears 404 enable the conveyor belt 2 to rotate.
[0020] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment, the moving mechanism includes a second gear 410, which is rotatably connected to one side of the operating table 1. A reciprocating screw 408 is sleeved on one side of the second gear 410. The second gear 410 and the reciprocating screw 408 are configured to cooperate with each other. Two limiting rods 411 are fixedly connected to the surface of the positioning plate 409 near the second gear 410. Both limiting rods 411 are slidably connected to one side of the operating table 1.

[0021] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In a preferred embodiment, the pressing mechanism includes a slide rod 304, which is slidably connected to the top of the connecting plate 303. A pressure plate 305 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slide rod 304. A spring 306 is sleeved on the surface of the slide rod 304.

A suction cup 302 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 303. The circuit board can be pressed by the setting of the pressure plate 305.
[0022] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects: During use, the motor 4 will start accordingly. A missing gear 402 is installed on the output shaft of the motor 4, so that when the motor 4 starts, the missing gear 402 will rotate synchronously. A first gear 404 and a second gear 410 are respectively fitted on the surface of the missing gear 402. Because the missing gear 402 is set with missing teeth, the missing gear 402 will only cooperate with one of them. A timing belt 407 is installed on one side of the first gear 404, and the other end of the timing belt 407 is installed on one side of the roller 201. So when the missing gear 402 drives the first gear 404 to rotate, the roller 201 will also rotate synchronously. The conveyor belt 2 is sleeved on the surface of the two rollers 201. So when one of the rollers 201 rotates, the conveyor belt 2 will also rotate accordingly, thereby achieving the purpose of transporting the circuit board. After the circuit board moves a certain distance, the missing gear 402 will cooperate with the second gear 410. One side of the conveyor belt 408 is fitted with a reciprocating lead screw 408. Since the reciprocating lead screw 408 is fixed and does not rotate, when the second gear 410 rotates, it can move the reciprocating lead screw 408 forward. A positioning plate 409 is installed at one end of the reciprocating lead screw 408. When the reciprocating lead screw 408 drives the positioning plate 409 to move, the positioning plate 409 can be used to position and calibrate the circuit board to avoid deviations. Since multiple circuit boards are placed at the top of the conveyor belt 2, the positioning plate 409 can then calibrate the circuit boards. While the positioning and calibration are being performed, the hydraulic rod 301 is also activated simultaneously. A suction cup 302 is installed at the bottom of the hydraulic rod 301. When the hydraulic rod 301 moves the suction cup 302 downward, the chip placement operation can be performed. Pressure plates 305 are also installed on both sides of the suction cup 302, and the pressure plates 305 are attached to the bottom of the suction cup 302. When the suction cup 302 moves downward, the pressure plates 305 will contact the circuit board first, thereby fixing the circuit board and preventing the circuit board from shifting during the chip placement process.
