[0025] The bottom of the suction head 3 extends directly below the mounting pipe 2, the outer wall of the air bag 5 is fixedly provided with an air outlet pipe 8 and an air inlet pipe 12 which are in communication with the inner cavity of the air bag 5, the inner cavities of the air outlet pipe 8 and the air inlet pipe 12 are provided with control components for unidirectional air flow, when the suction head 3 moves to deform the air bag 5, the air inside the air bag 5 is compressed, when the air pressure inside the air bag 5 reaches a certain degree of increase, the control inside the air outlet pipe 8 is opened, the air inside the air bag 5 is quickly exchanged with the outside air through the air outlet pipe 8 to achieve the purpose of pressure relief inside the air bag 5, at the same time, the continuous deformation of the air bag 5 causes the suction head 3 to continuously move towards the inside of the mounting pipe 2, which is beneficial to the soft connection of the suction head 3 with the PCB board and the electrical components, and plays a buffering role when contacting, preventing the PCB board from being broken during pasting, and preventing the bottom of the suction head 3 from deforming to reduce the sealing performance when contacting with the PCB board, reducing the adverse effects on the normal transfer of the PCB board, and improving the working efficiency of the chip mounter.
[0026] Further, when the suction head 3 adsorbs the electrical components, the chip mounter 4 drives the suction head 3 to move towards the PCB board, at this time, the bottom pressing of the suction head 3 disappears, the control component inside the air outlet pipe 8 resets and plays a blocking role on both ends of the air outlet pipe 8, preventing external air from entering the inside of the air bag 5 through the air outlet pipe 8, since the air bag 5 has strong deformation ability, when the air bag 5 resets, the control component inside the air inlet pipe 12 opens and closes, at this time, external air enters the inside of the air bag 5 through the air inlet pipe 12, until the air pressure inside the air bag 5 is the same as the external air pressure after the air bag 5 is completely reset, causing the control component inside the air inlet pipe 12 to reset and block both ends of the air inlet pipe 12.
