Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of circuit board conveying and connecting equipment, and in particular to a large-capacity buffer connecting device. Background Technology
[0002] Circuit boards are essential electronic components, manufactured through several processes. After electronic components are assembled on a pick-and-place machine, the boards, carried by trays, flow to the final stage of the manufacturing process: a high-temperature reflow oven. The temperature in this oven is high enough to melt solder paste, which firmly bonds the components to the circuit board. Circuit boards exiting the reflow oven, still at a high temperature, need to be cooled in a cooling buffer device before being transported to the next process. Within the buffer frame, the circuit boards are arranged vertically. After sufficient cooling, pushers propel the boards to the next process. To avoid interference between the pushers and adjacent circuit boards, the spacing between them is typically large. This results in a limited capacity without increasing the height of the buffer frame. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a high-capacity buffer connection device to address these issues. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-capacity cache connection device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0005] A high-capacity buffer connection device includes an infeed conveying mechanism, an infeed connection mechanism, a cooling buffer mechanism, and an outfeed connection mechanism. The infeed connection mechanism, the cooling buffer mechanism, and the outfeed connection mechanism are sequentially arranged on the left side of the infeed conveying mechanism. The cooling buffer mechanism includes a lifting drive assembly, a lifting bracket, a first frame, and a second frame. The lifting drive assembly is located between the infeed connection mechanism and the outfeed connection mechanism. The lifting bracket is fixed to the power output end of the lifting drive assembly. The first frame and the second frame are symmetrically installed on the front and rear sides of the lifting bracket.
[0006] The first frame includes a vertical mounting plate, conveyor rollers, a buffer conveyor belt, and a linkage gear. The vertical mounting plate is fixed on the lifting bracket. The conveyor rollers are rotatably mounted on the inner side of the vertical mounting plate. Two sets of conveyor rollers are provided, corresponding to the left and right sides of the vertical mounting plate. The buffer conveyor belt is wrapped around the two sets of conveyor rollers. The linkage gear is fixed on the rotating shaft of the left conveyor roller and corresponds to the outer side of the vertical mounting plate. Multiple sets of conveyor rollers, buffer conveyor belt, and linkage gear are provided along the vertical direction.
[0007] The discharge connection mechanism includes a mounting base, a first conveying component, and a second conveying component. The first and second conveying components are symmetrically fixed on the front and rear sides above the mounting base. The first conveying component includes a mounting plate, a conveying component, a cylinder, a connecting plate, a rotary motor, a drive gear, a first speed-changing gear, and a second speed-changing gear. The lower end of the mounting plate is fixed to the mounting base. The conveying component is fixed to the inner side of the upper end of the mounting plate. The right end of the conveying component is connected to the left end of the buffer conveyor belt. The cylinder is fixed to the outer side of the mounting plate with its power output end facing right. The connecting plate is fixed to the power output end of the cylinder. The rotary motor is fixed to the connecting plate. The drive gear is fixed to the power output end of the rotary motor. The first speed-changing gear and the second speed-changing gear are rotatably mounted on the mounting plate. The first speed-changing gear meshes with the drive gear and the second speed-changing gear, respectively. The second speed-changing gear corresponds to the linkage gear.
[0008] Further description of the present invention: The feeding conveying mechanism includes a feeding conveying component and a barcode scanner. Feeding conveying belts are provided on both the front and rear sides of the feeding conveying component. The barcode scanner is fixed on the feeding conveying component and corresponds to the two sets of feeding conveying belts. Three sets of feeding conveying components and barcode scanners are arranged in the front-rear direction.
[0009] Further description of the present invention: The feeding connection mechanism includes a transverse drive assembly, a connection base, and a connection conveyor belt. The connection base is fixed to the power output end of the transverse drive assembly and is driven by the transverse drive assembly to run in the front-back direction. The connection conveyor belt is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the connection base. Two sets of connection conveyor belts are provided and correspond to the front and rear sides of the connection base. The left end of the connection conveyor belt is connected to the right end of the buffer conveyor belt, and the right end of the connection conveyor belt is connected to the left end of the feeding conveyor mechanism.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the circuit board is fed by the feeding conveyor mechanism and transported to the space between the first frame and the second frame by the feeding docking mechanism. The lifting drive assembly drives the lifting bracket to rise or fall layer by layer, so that the uncooled circuit board is placed in the lifting bracket layer by layer and the cooled circuit board can be discharged layer by layer. When the circuit board of a certain layer is cooled, the layer moves between the discharge docking mechanism and the feeding docking mechanism. Then, the cylinder drives the connecting plate to extend to the right, so that the second speed gear and the linkage gear mesh. The rotary motor drives the first speed gear and the second speed gear to rotate through the drive gear, so as to drive the linkage gear to rotate, so that the buffer conveyor belt rotates and transports the circuit board to the left. At this time, the conveying direction of the feeding docking mechanism and the conveying component is also to the left, so that the cooled buffer conveyor belt is transported to the left onto the conveying component, while the circuit board to be cooled is transported from the feeding docking mechanism to the buffer conveyor belt. The advantage of this design is that by moving the second gear to the right and engaging with the linkage gear, the circuit board can be driven to feed and discharge on the buffer conveyor belt without occupying the space between two adjacent sets of buffer conveyor belts in the vertical direction. This allows the circuit boards to be arranged more densely while keeping the height of the cooling buffer mechanism unchanged, thereby increasing the buffer capacity and reducing the cost of the equipment.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0019] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a large-capacity buffer connection device includes a feeding conveying mechanism 1, a feeding connection mechanism 2, a cooling buffer mechanism 3, and a discharging connection mechanism 4. The feeding connection mechanism 2, the cooling buffer mechanism 3, and the discharging connection mechanism 4 are sequentially arranged on the left side of the feeding conveying mechanism 1. The cooling buffer mechanism 3 includes a lifting drive assembly 31, a lifting bracket 32, a first frame 33, and a second frame 34. The lifting drive assembly 31 is located between the feeding connection mechanism 2 and the discharging connection mechanism 4. The lifting bracket 32 is fixed to the power output end of the lifting drive assembly 31. The first frame 33 and the second frame 34 are symmetrically installed on the front and rear sides of the lifting bracket 32.
[0020] The first frame 33 includes a vertical mounting plate 331, conveying rollers 332, a buffer conveyor belt 333, and a linkage gear 334. The vertical mounting plate 331 is fixed on the lifting bracket 32. The conveying rollers 332 are rotatably mounted on the inner side of the vertical mounting plate 331. Two sets of conveying rollers 332 are provided and correspond to the left and right sides of the vertical mounting plate 331. The buffer conveyor belt 333 is wrapped around the two sets of conveying rollers 332. The linkage gear 334 is fixed on the rotation shaft of the left conveying roller 332 and corresponds to the outer side of the vertical mounting plate 331. Multiple sets of conveying rollers 332, buffer conveyor belt 333, and linkage gear 334 are provided along the vertical direction.
[0021] The discharge connection mechanism 4 includes a mounting base 41, a first conveying assembly 42, and a second conveying assembly 43. The first conveying assembly 42 and the second conveying assembly 43 are symmetrically fixed on the front and rear sides above the mounting base 41. The first conveying assembly 42 includes a mounting plate 421, a conveying component 422, a cylinder 423, a connecting plate 424, a rotary motor 425, a drive gear 426, a first speed-changing gear 427, and a second speed-changing gear 428. The lower end of the mounting plate 421 is fixed to the mounting base 41, and the conveying component 422 is fixed to the inner side of the upper end of the mounting plate 421. The right end of 2 is connected to the left end of the buffer conveyor belt 333. The cylinder 423 is fixed on the outside of the mounting plate 421 with the power output end facing right. The connecting plate 424 is fixed on the power output end of the cylinder 423. The rotary motor 425 is fixed on the connecting plate 424. The drive gear 426 is fixed on the power output end of the rotary motor 425. The first speed gear 427 and the second speed gear 428 are rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 421. The first speed gear 427 meshes with the drive gear 426 and the second speed gear 428 respectively. The second speed gear 428 corresponds to the linkage gear 334.
[0022] The circuit board is fed by the feeding conveyor 1 and transported to the space between the first frame 33 and the second frame 34 by the feeding docking mechanism 2. The lifting drive assembly 31 drives the lifting bracket 32 to lift or lower layer by layer, so that the uncooled circuit boards are placed layer by layer in the lifting bracket 32 and the cooled circuit boards can be discharged layer by layer. When the circuit boards of a certain layer have cooled down, the layer moves between the discharge docking mechanism 4 and the feeding docking mechanism 2. Then, the cylinder 423 drives the connecting plate 424 to extend to the right, thereby causing the second transmission gear to... 428 meshes with the linkage gear 334. The rotary motor 425 drives the first speed-changing gear 427 and the second speed-changing gear 428 to rotate via the drive gear 426, thereby driving the linkage gear 334 to rotate. This causes the buffer conveyor belt 333 to rotate and transport the circuit board to the left. At this time, the conveying direction of the feeding connection mechanism 2 and the conveying component 422 also turns to the left, so that the cooled buffer conveyor belt 333 is transported to the left onto the conveying component 422, while the circuit board to be cooled is transported from the feeding connection mechanism 2 onto the buffer conveyor belt 333. The advantage of this design is that by moving the second speed-changing gear 428 to the right and meshing with the linkage gear 334, the circuit board can be driven to feed and discharge on the buffer conveyor belt 333, without occupying the space between two adjacent sets of buffer conveyor belts 333 in the vertical direction. This allows the circuit boards to be arranged more densely without changing the height of the cooling buffer mechanism 3, thus increasing the buffer capacity and reducing the cost of the equipment.
[0023] The feeding conveying mechanism 1 includes a feeding conveying component 11 and a barcode scanner 12. The feeding conveying component 11 has feeding conveyor belts 111 on both the front and rear sides. The barcode scanner 12 is fixed on the feeding conveying component 11 and corresponds to the two sets of feeding conveyor belts 111. The feeding conveying component 11 and the barcode scanner 12 are arranged in three sets along the front and rear direction.
[0024] The barcode scanner 12 scans the circuit board on the feeding conveyor assembly 11 with a QR code and records its information. The three sets of feeding conveyor assemblies 11 can transport circuit boards on three production lines at the same time, improving the feeding efficiency. Moreover, due to the increased capacity of the cooling buffer mechanism 3, the cooling buffer mechanism 3 can also ensure the cooling time of the circuit boards on three production lines at the same time.
[0025] The feeding and connecting mechanism 2 includes a transverse drive assembly 21, a connecting base 22, and a connecting conveyor belt 23. The connecting base 22 is fixed to the power output end of the transverse drive assembly 21 and is driven by the transverse drive assembly 21 to run in the front-back direction. The connecting conveyor belt 23 is rotatably installed on the upper end of the connecting base 22. Two sets of connecting conveyor belts 23 are provided and correspond to the front and rear sides of the connecting base 22. The left end of the connecting conveyor belt 23 is connected to the right end of the buffer conveyor belt 333, and the right end of the connecting conveyor belt 23 is connected to the left end of the feeding and conveying mechanism 1.
[0026] The transverse drive assembly 21 drives the docking base 22 to move back and forth, so that the docking conveyor belt 23 alternately connects with the feed conveyor belts 111 on the three sets of feed conveyor assemblies 11, thereby orderly conveying the circuit boards on the three production lines to the cooling buffer mechanism 3.
[0027] The above does not limit the technical scope of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of this utility model.
