[0024] Example 1
[0025] As per the instruction manual Figure 1As shown, this embodiment provides a barcode scanning fixture suitable for camera modules, including a base 1, a first bracket 2, a second bracket 3, a first barcode scanner 4, and a second barcode scanner 5. The first bracket 2 and the second bracket 3 are both mounted on the base 1. The first barcode scanner 4 is mounted on the first bracket 2, and the second barcode scanner 5 is mounted on the second bracket 3. A camera module mounting base 6 is provided on the base 1, defining a target position for the FPC board and a target position for the motor. The first barcode scanner 4 faces the target position for the FPC board, and the second barcode scanner 5 faces the target position for the motor. In this embodiment, the target position for the FPC board is the location of the QR code on the FPC board, and the target position for the motor is the location of the QR code on the motor. The first barcode scanner can scan the QR code on the FPC board, and the second barcode scanner can scan the QR code on the motor.
[0026] Specifically, when assembling the motors and FPC semi-finished products for the camera module, different motors are configured for each type of FPC semi-finished product depending on the requirements. Each FPC board and motor is configured in a one-to-one correspondence. Production may begin simultaneously. To avoid the risk of mixed materials, two barcode scanners are used to scan and identify the motors and FPC semi-finished products respectively, and then associate them. The first and second barcode scanners are also connected to a computer. If the identified product matches, the motor is bound to the FPC board; if the identified product does not match, it will not be bound and will fail. The motor has a QR code, and the FPC also has a QR code. The barcode scanners can obtain the QR code information and match it with the information entered in the computer to determine whether the motor matches the corresponding FPC board. This avoids mismatch problems caused by human error and ensures the stability and reliability of the final product.
[0027] In an optimized implementation, the base 1 includes a bottom bracket 11 and a mounting plate 12. The mounting plate 12 is disposed on the bottom bracket 11 and is horizontally positioned. The camera module mounting base 6 is disposed on the mounting plate 12. The first bracket 2 is disposed on the mounting plate 12, the second bracket 3 is disposed on the bottom bracket 11, and the camera module mounting base 6 is disposed at one end of the mounting plate 12.
[0028] Specifically, the camera module mounting base 6 is provided with a receiving slot for accommodating the camera module. The dimensions of the camera module mounting base 6 and the receiving slot are set according to the dimensions of the motor and the FPC board. The camera module mounting base 6 is connected to the mounting plate 12 by bolts. To facilitate barcode scanning, the camera module mounting base is provided with an FPC target position clearance slot for exposing the QR code on the FPC board, which facilitates scanning by the first barcode scanner. The camera module mounting base is also provided with a motor target position clearance slot for exposing the QR code on the motor, which facilitates scanning by the second barcode scanner.
[0029] In some embodiments, to accommodate different models of camera modules, different models of camera module mounting brackets can be matched to meet the needs of different models of camera modules, demonstrating strong versatility and good applicability.
[0030] In an optimized implementation, the camera module mounting base 6 is square, having a first side, a second side, a third side, and a fourth side. The QR code on the FPC board extends to the first side of the camera module mounting base 6 and faces downwards. The first bracket 2 is vertically mounted on the base 1 and located on the first side of the camera module mounting base 6. The first barcode scanner 4 is located above the camera module mounting base 6, with its scanning end facing downwards. The QR code on the FPC board is located within the scanning area of the first barcode scanner 4, facilitating scanning of the FPC board. The QR code on the motor faces the second side of the camera module mounting base 6. The second bracket 3 is located on the second side of the camera module mounting base 6. The second barcode scanner 5 is located on one side of the camera module mounting base 6, with its scanning end facing the second side of the camera module mounting base 6. The QR code on the motor is located within the scanning area of the second barcode scanner 5, facilitating scanning of the motor.

[0033] As one specific embodiment, the mounting plate 12 is rectangular, with its length direction as the transverse direction, its width direction as the longitudinal direction, and its perpendicularity to the surface of the mounting plate as the vertical direction, and so on. The first bracket 2 and the second bracket 3 are arranged laterally at intervals and are respectively located on both sides of the camera module mounting base 6. The camera module mounting base 6 is located at one end of the length direction of the mounting plate 12. The first bracket 2 is mounted on the mounting plate 12, and the second bracket 3 is suspended from the bottom bracket 11. The position of the camera module mounting base 6 on the mounting plate 12 is adjustable, and the adjustment direction is parallel to the side wall of the first side of the camera module mounting base 6, that is, parallel to the longitudinal direction of the mounting plate 12, so that the camera module in the camera module mounting base 6 is located in the scanning area to meet the usage requirements of different models of camera modules. The mounting plate 12 is provided with a first mounting hole 13, which is an elongated hole with its length direction parallel to the longitudinal direction. The camera module mounting base 6 can be fixed to a suitable position in the first mounting hole 13 by bolts as needed.
[0034] In an optimized implementation, the position of the first bracket 2 on the base 1 is adjustable, and the adjustment direction is towards or away from the camera module mounting base 6. Specifically, the first bracket can move closer to or further away from the camera module mounting base 6, thereby causing the first barcode scanner 4 to move closer to or further away from the camera module mounting base 6, thus adjusting the position of the scanning area.
[0035] As one embodiment, the mounting plate 12 is provided with a plurality of second mounting holes 14 spaced laterally, and the first bracket 2 is selectively mounted on a set of second mounting holes 14 by bolts.

[0037] In an optimized implementation, the position of the first barcode scanner 4 on the first bracket 2 is adjustable, and the adjustment direction is parallel to the vertical direction. Specifically, the first bracket 2 is provided with a third mounting hole 21, which is an elongated hole with its length direction parallel to the vertical direction. The first barcode scanner 4 can be fixed to a suitable position in the third mounting hole 21 by bolts as needed, thereby adjusting the vertical distance between the first barcode scanner 4 and the camera module mounting base 6.
[0038] In an optimized implementation, one end of the second bracket 3 is connected to the bottom bracket 11, and the other end extends outward from the bottom bracket 11. The second barcode scanner 5 is located at the extended end of the second bracket 3.
[0039] In an optimized implementation, the position of the second barcode scanner 5 on the second bracket 3 is adjustable, and the adjustment direction is towards or away from the camera module mounting base 6. Specifically, the second bracket 3 is provided with multiple sets of fourth mounting holes 31 spaced laterally along its side. The second barcode scanner 5 can be selectively fixed to one set of fourth mounting holes 31 by bolts as needed, thereby adjusting the lateral distance between the second barcode scanner 5 and the camera module mounting base 6.
[0040] In an optimized implementation, the position of the second bracket 3 on the base 1 is adjustable, and the adjustment direction is parallel to the vertical. Specifically, the bottom bracket 11 has multiple sets of fifth mounting holes 16 spaced vertically along its upper edge. The second bracket 3 is selectively connected to one of the sets of fifth mounting holes 16, thereby adjusting the vertical position of the second barcode scanner 5.
[0041] As one specific implementation, the second bracket 3 is an L-shaped bracket, and there are two of them. The two second brackets 3 are respectively connected to both sides of the bottom bracket 11. One arm of the L-shaped bracket is bolted to the fifth mounting hole 16, and the other arm is cantilevered for mounting the second barcode scanner 5. The cantilevered ends of the two L-shaped brackets are connected to support plates 32, and the second barcode scanner 5 is mounted on the support plates. The support plates are selectively connected to a set of fourth mounting holes 31.
[0042] In an optimized implementation, the support plate 32 is provided with a sixth mounting hole 33, which is an elongated hole with its length direction parallel to the longitudinal direction. The second barcode scanner 5 can be fixed to a suitable position in the sixth mounting hole 33 by bolts as needed, thereby adjusting the longitudinal position of the second barcode scanner 5.
[0043] In this application, the relative position between the barcode scanner and the camera module mounting hole can be adjusted by setting each mounting hole, thereby calibrating the scanning area of the barcode scanner, meeting the scanning needs of different models / specifications of camera modules, with strong compatibility and versatility, and contributing to solving major quality abnormalities in mixed production.
[0044] In an optimized implementation, the mounting plate 12 is provided with a first clearance hole 17 and a second clearance hole 18. The first clearance hole 17 is located between the first bracket 2 and the camera module mounting base 6. In this application, the camera module mounting base 6 is located at the end of the mounting plate 12, and the second clearance hole 18 is the area between the second barcode scanner 5 and the camera module mounting base 6.

[0046] Example 2
[0047] This embodiment provides a barcode scanning fixture suitable for camera modules. The barcode scanning fixture has the same structure as that described in Embodiment 1, and will not be repeated here. The QR code patterns on the FPC board and motor of the camera module are small, making accurate scanning difficult and requiring high-performance scanners. Therefore, the barcode scanning fixture further includes a first image amplifier and a second image amplifier. The first image amplifier is mounted on a first bracket 2 and located between the first barcode scanner 4 and the camera module mounting base 6. The first image amplifier is aligned with the QR code image on the FPC board of the camera module to magnify the QR code image. The second image amplifier is mounted on a second bracket 3 and located between the second barcode scanner 5 and the camera module mounting base. The second image amplifier is aligned with the QR code image on the motor of the camera module to magnify the QR code image. The image amplifiers magnify the QR code image, facilitating scanning operations by the barcode scanner. The image display surface of the first image amplifier is parallel to the light-emitting surface of the first barcode scanner, and the image display surface of the second image amplifier is parallel to the light-emitting surface of the second barcode scanner.
[0048] As one specific embodiment, the first image amplifier is a magnifying lens, and / or the second image amplifier is a magnifying lens. The position of the first image amplifier on the first bracket is adjustable, and the adjustment direction is parallel to the vertical direction. The mounting structure of the first image amplifier is the same as the mounting structure of the first barcode scanner, and will not be described again here. This facilitates adjusting the distance between the first image amplifier and the first barcode scanner, and facilitates focused scanning. The position of the second image amplifier on the second bracket is adjustable, and the adjustment direction is parallel to the horizontal direction, which also facilitates focused scanning.
