DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0031] Please refer to Figures 1-4 In the embodiments of the utility model, a soft board testing machine automatic feeding and discharging marking machine,
[0032] The cabinet 1 is internally provided with an upper installation platform 2 and a lower installation platform 3.
[0033] The feeding lifting mechanism 4 and the three-layer receiving mechanism 5 are sequentially arranged along the Y-axis direction on the lower installation platform 3, and the three-layer receiving mechanism 5 is composed of the lower layer NG box linear module 6, the middle layer OK box linear module 7 and the upper layer marking plate linear module 8 which are parallel to each other.
[0034] The XYZ three-axis material taking mechanism 9, the marking mechanism 10 and the Z-axis material grabbing mechanism 11 are sequentially arranged along the Y-axis direction and connected to the upper installation platform 2 and located between the upper installation platform 2 and the lower installation platform 3.
[0035] The cabinet 1 is internally provided with an upper installation platform 2 and a lower installation platform 3.
[0036] The XYZ three-axis material taking mechanism 9 is used to grab the soft board from the feeding lifting mechanism 4 and move it to the line-out testing equipment for detection, and move the detected soft board to the upper layer marking plate linear module 8.
[0037] The upper layer marking plate linear module 8 is used to convey the soft board to the marking mechanism 10 for marking, and then convey it to the grabbing range of the Z-axis material grabbing mechanism 11.
[0038] The NG box linear module or OK box linear module is used to move to the position of the Z-axis grabbing mechanism 11 according to the detection result of the soft board, and receive the soft board grabbed by the Z-axis grabbing mechanism 11, wherein if the test result of the soft board is qualified, the OK box linear module moves to receive the soft board, and if the test result of the soft board is unqualified, the NG box linear module moves to receive the soft board.
[0039] The utility model technical scheme:
[0040] The cabinet 1 is internally provided with an upper installation platform 2 and a lower installation platform 3, and the double-layer structure is the basic framework of equipment layout, the lower installation platform 3 mainly undertakes the initial placement and final classified storage function of materials, and the upper layer is sequentially arranged with a feeding lifting mechanism 4 and a three-layer receiving mechanism 5, the feeding lifting mechanism 4 is responsible for lifting the soft board to be processed to a suitable height, facilitating the grabbing of other mechanisms, and the three-layer receiving mechanism 5 is composed of a lower NG box linear module 6, a middle OK box linear module 7 and an upper marking plate linear module 8, and is used for storing unqualified products, qualified products and soft boards before marking respectively;
[0041] The space between the upper installation platform 2 and the lower installation platform 3 is arranged with an XYZ three-axis material taking mechanism 9, a marking mechanism 10 and a Z-axis grabbing mechanism 11, and these mechanisms are responsible for the transfer, marking and final classified placement of the soft board between processes, and the layered layout clearly divides the functions of feeding, testing, marking and discharging of the equipment, which not only facilitates the independent operation of each mechanism, but also makes the collaborative work between them more smooth, and effectively saves the space occupied by the whole equipment;
[0042] The XYZ three-axis material taking mechanism 9 is like a high-precision mechanical arm, which grabs the soft board from the feeding lifting mechanism 4 of the lower installation platform 3 through the accurate movement in X, Y and Z three axes, and the movement control principle is based on the pre-set program, which clearly shows the movement direction, speed and displacement of each axis and other parameters, through the accurate parameter control, the XYZ three-axis material taking mechanism 9 can accurately position the position of the soft board, then use a specific grabbing device (such as a vacuum suction cup or a mechanical clamp) to grab the soft board and transfer it to the off-line test equipment for detection;
[0043] The soft board detected by the off-line test equipment is synchronously moved to the upper marking plate linear module 8 by the XYZ three-axis taking mechanism 9. The working principle of the upper marking plate linear module 8 is to use a motor as a power source, and the motor drives a screw or a synchronous belt to rotate. When the motor starts, the rotation of the screw or the synchronous belt will drive the marking plate connected thereto to move linearly, so as to stably transport the soft board to the lower side of the marking mechanism 10. After receiving the signal that the soft board is in place, the marking mechanism 10 marks the soft board according to the preset marking content and parameters, so as to ensure the accuracy and clarity of the marking;
[0044] The soft board after marking is continuously transported to the grabbing range of the Z-axis grabbing mechanism 11 by the upper marking plate linear module 8. At this time, the NG box linear module or the OK box linear module will make corresponding actions according to the detection result of the soft board. The sensor inside the equipment will obtain the detection result information of the soft board in real time, and transmit the information to the control system. The control system will issue instructions to control the NG box linear module or the OK box linear module to move to the position of the Z-axis grabbing mechanism 11. After detecting that the corresponding linear module is in place, the Z-axis grabbing mechanism 11 grabs the soft board and places it into the corresponding NG box or OK box, thereby completing the whole discharging process.
[0045] The lower NG box linear module 6 and the middle OK box linear module 7 in the three-layer receiving mechanism 5 are key components for classifying and storing the soft board. They also realize linear motion by motor driving based on the working principle of the linear module. When the control system receives the detection result of the soft board as unqualified (NG), the lower NG box linear module 6 is controlled to move to the lower side of the Z-axis grabbing mechanism 11 to receive the unqualified soft board placed by the Z-axis grabbing mechanism 11. If the detection result is qualified (OK), the middle OK box linear module 7 is controlled to move to receive the qualified soft board. This automatic classification and storage mode according to the detection result greatly improves the efficiency and accuracy of soft board management.
[0046] In summary, through the automatic feeding and discharging function and the efficient operation of each mechanism, the production efficiency is greatly improved. The processing capacity per hour is increased from dozens of pieces in the traditional manual mode to hundreds of pieces or even more, which meets the demand of large-scale production. With precise program control and mechanical structure design, human errors are effectively avoided, and the product quality is improved. The high precision of each mechanism of the equipment ensures the position accuracy and consistency of the soft board processing process, which is beneficial to product quality traceability and sales. The layered layout and reasonable mechanism setting make the equipment structure compact, and the volume is greatly reduced compared with the early semi-automatic equipment, which reduces the cost of site rental and equipment layout. The cooperation of each part is good, which reduces the production jam and improves the overall operation efficiency and prolongs the service life of the equipment. Through accurate marking and classification storage, the traceability of the product is enhanced, which is convenient for enterprises to quickly trace the production link when the product quality problem occurs, optimize the production process, and improve the quality management level.
[0047] The three-layer material receiving mechanism 5 further comprises two fixed side plates 13 installed on the lower layer mounting platform 3 and arranged oppositely, the inner sides of the two fixed side plates 13 are connected with the lower layer NG box linear module 6, the middle layer OK box linear module 7 and the upper layer marking plate linear module 8, and a space for the lower layer NG box linear module 6, the middle layer OK box linear module 7 and the upper layer marking plate linear module 8 to move is formed between the two fixed side plates 13.
[0048] The fixed side plates 13 are installed on the lower layer mounting platform 3 and arranged oppositely, which provides a stable installation basis for the lower layer NG box linear module 6, the middle layer OK box linear module 7 and the upper layer marking plate linear module 8 in the three-layer material receiving mechanism 5, and the linear modules are connected to the inner sides of the fixed side plates 13, so that the whole three-layer material receiving mechanism 5 forms a relatively stable structure system, that is, the linear modules are connected to the corresponding positions of the inner sides of the two fixed side plates 13, and the marking plate, the OK box and the NG box are movably connected between the two linear modules.
[0049] In the embodiment of the utility model, the moving stroke ranges of the lower layer NG box linear module 6, the middle layer OK box linear module 7 and the upper layer marking plate linear module 8 are same.
[0050] The same moving stroke range is helpful for the cooperative work between the linear modules, in the processing flow of the soft plate, whether the NG box linear module receives unqualified soft plates, the OK box linear module receives qualified soft plates or the marking plate linear module conveys the soft plates to the marking mechanism 10 and the Z-axis grabbing mechanism 11, they all move in a relatively consistent space range, which makes the control system of the equipment more convenient to coordinate the movement sequence and time of the linear modules and ensures the fluency and efficiency of the whole soft plate processing flow.
[0051] In the embodiment of the utility model, the marking mechanism 10 comprises a marking X-axis linear module 14 installed on the lower end face of the upper layer mounting platform 2 and at least one marking module 15 connected to the movable end of the marking X-axis linear module 14.
[0052] The marking mechanism 10 realizes the accurate adjustment of the marking position in the X-axis direction through the marking X-axis linear module 14 installed on the lower end face of the upper layer mounting platform 2, the working principle of the marking X-axis linear module 14 is based on motor-driven screw or synchronous belt transmission, which can convert the rotary motion of the motor into linear motion, so as to drive the marking module 15 connected to the movable end to move stably and accurately along the X-axis direction, and such design can ensure that the marking module 15 can be accurately positioned to the position of the soft plate to be marked in the X-axis direction, and meet the marking requirements of different specifications of soft plates.
[0053] At least one marking module 15 is connected to the movable end of the marking X-axis linear module 14, which has strong flexibility, on the one hand, different types of marking modules 15, such as laser marking modules 15 and inkjet marking modules 15, can be selected according to actual production needs and the marking content of the soft plate, so as to meet the requirements of different materials and different marking effects, on the other hand, when the production task is large, the number of marking modules 15 can be increased, and the marking efficiency can be improved by working of multiple marking modules 15 at the same time.
[0054] In the embodiment of the utility model, the movable end of the XYZ three-axis material taking mechanism 9 and the Z-axis material grabbing mechanism 11 is connected with a material grabbing suction disc manipulator 16.
[0055] The material grabbing suction disc manipulator 16 is usually provided with a vacuum generator or connected with an external vacuum system, when the vacuum system is started, a negative pressure environment is formed on the surface of the suction disc in contact with the soft plate, due to the action of atmospheric pressure, the soft plate is tightly adsorbed on the surface of the suction disc, so that the soft plate is grabbed, the adsorption mode can uniformly act on the surface of the soft plate, avoids the local stress concentration of the soft plate, and reduces the risk of damage of the soft plate due to uneven stress in the grabbing process.
[0056] In the embodiment of the utility model, the recess position 17 for placing the separator paper is arranged on the lower layer mounting platform 3 and below the Z-axis material grabbing mechanism 11.
[0057] The recess position 17 is arranged below the Z-axis material grabbing mechanism 11 on the lower layer mounting platform 3, and the main purpose is to temporarily store the separator paper, because the separator paper needs to be placed in the OK box and the NG box in the production process, and the soft plate is alternately layered, the recess position 17 provides a temporary storage area for the separator paper, so that the Z-axis material grabbing mechanism 11 can quickly grab the separator paper and place it on the soft plate in the box after placing the soft plate;
[0058] The recess position 17 is arranged at this position, which is an efficient use of the internal space of the equipment, this position does not interfere with the normal operation of other mechanisms, and the Z-axis material grabbing mechanism 11 can obtain the separator paper in the shortest path during operation, improve the operation efficiency, and fully consider the structural strength of the lower layer mounting platform 3 when designing the recess position 17, so as to realize the temporary storage function of the separator paper without affecting the overall stability.
[0059] It is apparent for a person skilled in the art that the present application is not limited to the details of the above-described exemplary embodiments, but that it can be implemented in other concrete forms without departing from the spirit or the essential characteristics of the present application. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the present application being defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and all changes coming within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.
