[0034] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. In the case of no conflict, the following embodiments and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0035] The rotary material transferring device of the high-density integrated circuit lead frame in the embodiment comprises a rotary disc 21 and a transposition driving module 22 for driving the rotary disc 21 to rotate step by step. Figures 1 to 8 As shown in the figure, the rotary disc 21 is arranged transversely to the central axis, and the transposition driving module 22 is used for driving the rotary disc 21 to rotate step by step. A plurality of clamping mechanisms 1 are arranged around the central axis of the rotary disc 21, and there are eight clamping mechanisms 1 in total in the figure, and adjacent two groups are arranged at an angle of 45°.

[0036] The rotary disc 21 comprises a first disc body 211, a middle rod 212 and a second disc body 213. The first disc body 211 and the second disc body 213 are fixed to the two end portions of the middle rod 212. An extension rod 214 is fixed at the rotation center of the first disc body 211, and the extension rod 214 is connected with a first bearing seat 215. The transposition driving module 22 comprises a transposition driving motor 221, and the output shaft of the transposition driving motor 221 is connected with the extension rod 214. An extension cylinder 216 is fixed at the rotation center of the second disc body 213, and the extension cylinder 216 is connected with a second bearing seat 217. When in use, the transposition driving motor 221 drives the extension rod 214, the first disc body 211, the second disc body 213, the middle rod 212 and the extension cylinder 216 to rotate as a whole, so as to drive the plurality of clamping mechanisms 1 to switch step by step at different positions around 360°.

[0037] In the embodiment, each set of the material clamping mechanism 1 comprises a support rod 11 and two rotating cylinders 12. The support rod 11 comprises a first rod body 111 and a second rod body 112 arranged side by side and fixed to each other, and the first rod body 111 and the second rod body 112 are provided with a first disc body 211 and a second disc body 213. The two rotating cylinders 12 are rotatably installed outside the first rod body 111 and the second rod body 112 via bearings. The support rod 11 is provided with a clamping and driving module 13 for driving the two rotating cylinders 12 to rotate in opposite directions. The support rod 11 is fixed with a bearing seat 14, and the clamping and driving module 13 is installed on the bearing seat 14. The support rod 11 is provided with a limiting piece 15 for limiting the axial displacement of the rotating cylinder 12 relative to the support rod 11. It can be seen that the relative positions of the support rod 11, the bearing seat 14 and the rotating cylinder 12 in the axial direction are fixed and unchangeable. The two rotating cylinders 12 are respectively provided with outward clamping pieces 16. In use, the clamping and driving module 13 drives the two rotating cylinders 12 to rotate in opposite directions (one in a clockwise direction and the other in an anticlockwise direction) during clamping, thereby driving the clamping pieces 16 on the two rotating cylinders 12 to approach and clamp the lead frame. When it is necessary to release the clamped lead frame, the reverse operation can be performed.

[0038] In the embodiment, the clamping and driving module 13 comprises a clamping and driving finger air cylinder 131 and a connecting rod transmission group 132.

The two output shafts of the clamping and driving finger air cylinder 131 are respectively provided with the connecting rod transmission group 132. The output shaft of each connecting rod transmission group 132 is fixedly connected with the output shaft of the clamping and driving finger air cylinder 131 and the rotating cylinder 12. The stroke of the clamping and driving finger air cylinder 131 determines the rotation amplitude of the rotating cylinder 12 and the clamping degree of the clamping piece 16.

[0039] In the embodiment, the number of the clamping and driving modules 13 of each set of the material clamping mechanism 1 is two, and the two clamping and driving modules 13 move synchronously. In order to reduce the amount of cylinder pipes, the bearing seat 14 is provided with a shunt seat 17. The shunt seat 17 is provided with an air inlet converging channel 171, an air outlet converging channel 172, two air inlet shunt channels 173 and two air outlet shunt channels 174. Each air inlet shunt channel 173 is connected with the air inlet converging channel 171, and each air outlet shunt channel 174 is connected with the air outlet converging channel 172. The air inlet ends of the two clamping and driving finger air cylinders 131 of the same set of the material clamping mechanism 1 are connected with the air inlet shunt channels 173, and the air outlet ends are connected with the air outlet converging channel 172.

[0040] In the embodiment, the second bearing seat 217 is connected with the pneumatic slip ring 23, the second disc body 213 is provided with penetrating holes 2131 near the rotation center, the penetrating holes 2131 are distributed around the rotation center of the second disc body 213, and / or the penetrating holes 2131 are in strip shape. The pneumatic slip ring is a commercially available component, which is used for the rotary connection between two sections of air pipes without knotting, and its principle is known and will not be described here. In use, the pneumatic slip ring 23 is connected with an external air source, and the purpose is to provide compressed air flow to the opening and closing driving finger cylinder 131. The specific pipe connection mode is that the air outlet end of the pneumatic slip ring 23 is connected with the air inlet ends of the opening and closing driving finger cylinders 131 of the two groups of opening and closing driving modules 13 through soft air pipes in sequence via the air inlet manifold 171 and the air inlet branch pipes 173, so as to provide high-pressure air flow to drive the opening and closing driving finger cylinders 131 to open; the air inlet end of the pneumatic slip ring 23 is connected with the air outlet ends of the opening and closing driving finger cylinders 131 of the two groups of opening and closing driving modules 13 through soft air pipes in sequence via the air outlet branch pipes 174 and the air outlet manifold 172, so that the air flow of the opening and closing driving finger cylinders 131 forms a cycle. The soft air pipes pass through the extension cylinder 216 and the penetrating holes 2131, and the air pipe arrangement is more convenient and simple.

[0041] In the embodiment, the clamping piece 16 comprises a piece body 161 and a plurality of clamping strips 162 arranged in parallel and integrally extended from the piece body 161, and the clamping strips 162 of the clamping pieces 16 on the two rotating cylinders 12 are arranged in one-to-one alignment with each other. Each clamping strip 162 is sleeved with a soft protective sleeve 163 to avoid scratching the lead frame. The piece body 161 is bent, and the piece bodies 161 of the clamping pieces 16 on the two rotating cylinders 12 are bent close to each other, so that the contact area with the lead frame is larger during clamping. The outer side of the rotating cylinder 12 is provided with a concave plane 121, and the piece body 161 is fixed by being attached to the concave plane 121.
