Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of processing and inspection, and in particular to an automatic cover opening and inspection device structure for processing camera lens modules. Background Technology

[0002] As high-precision modules in optical systems, camera modules typically require inspection (such as visual inspection) during processing. However, for modules packaged in full boxes, manual opening of the lid and removal of waste materials (lids) are necessary before inspection. Repeating these actions multiple times often leads to fatigue and reduced overall efficiency. Furthermore, current inspection equipment uses single-threaded workstations, often arranged in a linear layout, resulting in a large production line span, which not only occupies a lot of space but also makes the equipment difficult to manage and maintain.

[0003] In view of this, this technical solution proposes an automatic opening and inspection equipment structure for camera lens module processing. It adopts a "U"-shaped workstation layout structure, which occupies little space and has a multi-axial material transfer and inspection mechanism, which improves the material inspection efficiency. It also has an automatic opening and waste discharge action structure. After one loading (piling) of materials, automatic material transfer and inspection can be carried out without manual supervision, which improves the overall processing efficiency and saves labor. Utility Model Content

[0024] as follows:

[0025] Please see the appendix Figure 1-6 ,

[0026] The main structure includes the main body 1 of the testing equipment, which consists of an automatic loading and unloading mechanism 200 and a U-shaped workstation assembly 2.

[0027] The U-shaped station assembly 2 includes a detection station 20 and a detection camera 21 located on one side of the detection station 20. A first material conveying track 22 is provided on the other side of the detection camera 21. A second material conveying track 23 is provided on one side parallel to the first material conveying track 22. A material transfer robot 24 for transferring materials is provided at the tail of the second material conveying track 23 and the first material conveying track 22. A material distribution station 25 is provided at one end of the second material conveying track 23 near the detection camera 21. A cover-opening station 26 is provided on one side of the material distribution station 25 near the detection station 20. A waste inlet 260 is provided around the cover-opening station 26. The automatic loading and unloading mechanism 200 includes a first lifting guide rail and a second lifting guide rail 2002 respectively provided corresponding to the waste inlet 260 and one side of the detection station 20. A frame for fixing the material tray is provided in the first lifting guide rail and the second lifting guide rail 2002. A material picking head 2004 for picking up materials by moving back and forth on the top of each guide rail is provided above the first lifting guide rail and the second lifting guide rail 2002.

[0028] The working principle is as follows:

[0029] During operation, multiple trays containing camera modules are manually (or automatically) filled into the second lifting guide rail 2002. When the second lifting guide rail 2002 moves upward, it lifts individual materials (the start / stop control motor 2003 can be set to lift a single tray at a time). At this time, the material picking head 2004 on one side moves above the material and moves it to the cap-opening station 26 on the U-shaped station component 2 for cap opening (the material picking head 2004 is equipped with a cap-opening robot). The removed cap... The shell falls into the waste inlet 260 around the cap-opening station 26. The material with the cap removed flows to the inspection station 20 on one side via a robotic arm. After inspection at the inspection station 20, the material is sent to the inspection camera 21 on one side for inspection, and then flows to the material sorting station 25 on one side for sorting, separating OK and NG materials. OK materials continue to flow through the first conveying track 22 and the second conveying track 23 via the material transfer robotic arm 24 to be placed on the first lifting guide rail, while NG materials are discharged behind the first conveying track 22. This solution adopts a U-shaped station layout and sets up intermediate material sorting, cap opening and waste discharge, which further saves equipment space while realizing highly automated inspection and processing operations.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of both the first lifting guide rail and the second lifting guide rail 2002 is provided with a start / stop control motor 2003 for controlling the lifting distance and descent of each guide rail.

[0031] The 2003 start / stop control motor can lift a single pallet of logistics or multiple pallets of materials in a single operation.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the waste inlet 260 is connected to the waste discharge channel 261, and the bottom of the waste discharge channel 261 is connected to a waste box 262.

[0033] After the cover is opened, the waste flows through the waste inlet 260 to the waste discharge channel 261 (the waste discharge channel 261 is set at a downward angle), and then falls into the waste box 262 set at the end of the waste discharge channel 261.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the material handling head 2004 is connected to the multi-axis material transfer mechanism 201. The multi-axis material transfer mechanism 201 includes a lifting cylinder 2010 connected to the top of the material handling head 2004. A first X-axis 2011 is provided on one side of the lifting cylinder 2010. A second X-axis 2012 is slidably provided on the first X-axis 2011. The second X-axis 2012 extends to the vertical side of the first X-axis 2011 and is connected to the lifting cylinder 2010.

[0035] The multi-axis material transfer mechanism 201 is used to realize the lifting and lowering of the material pick-up head 2004 in the Y-axis and various movements in the X-axis.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the material handling head 2004 is a pneumatic gripper structure.

[0037] The pneumatic gripper facilitates the gripping (switching) of different materials with varying force and ensures a smooth material transfer process.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the material sorting station 25 is composed of two movable carrier plates that are respectively connected to the inlet ends of the first material conveying track 22 and the second material conveying track 23.

[0039] The material sorting station 25 mainly consists of two separate movable plates, each equipped with a motor, to achieve alternating material sorting actions.

[0040] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings under the concept of the present utility model, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
