Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of surface mount component tray technology, specifically a surface mount component tray for convenient X-ray automatic counting machine. Background Technology

[0002] A part counter, also known as a parts counting machine, uses photoelectric sensing to accurately determine the number of SMD parts by utilizing the correspondence between the guide holes on the part carrier tape and the parts. It can achieve convenient and fast counting, and is especially helpful for the material issuance and disbursement operations in outsourced processing.

[0003] The utility model patent application with publication number CN217037837U includes a tray with grooves of various sizes for placing different components. This application's solution improves the loading efficiency of a pick-and-place machine.

[0004] In the prior art, including the aforementioned patents, existing X-ray component counting machines typically require conveying equipment (such as mechanical grippers and robotic arms) to transfer trays containing component components to designated locations during the component counting process. To ensure efficient transfer, the trays need to be stacked. However, existing trays are stacked by simply placing adjacent trays individually, making it difficult to lock them together. Trays without effective self-locking can accidentally slip or tip over during stacking, causing damage or loss of components, and potentially even personal injury. Furthermore, trays lacking a self-locking mechanism require more careful handling during stacking and transfer to avoid relative sliding or misalignment between trays, which increases transportation time and labor costs. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a convenient tray for surface mount components in an X-ray automatic counting machine, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a convenient X-ray automatic counting machine for surface mount components, comprising a first tray and a second tray, wherein the first tray is disposed on top of the second tray, both the first tray and the second tray are provided with self-locking components, and both the first tray and the second tray are provided with buffer components inside.

[0007] The self-locking assembly includes two top plates fixed on the first material tray. The first material tray has a snap-fit ​​groove. A reset plate is slidably disposed on the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove. A reset spring is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the reset plate, and the bottom end of the reset spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove. Multiple plug-in blocks are fixedly disposed at the bottom end of each top plate. The snap-fit ​​plate on the second material tray has multiple plug-in holes that match the multiple plug-in blocks on the first material tray.

[0008] Furthermore, the two top plates are arranged in a ring array on the first material tray. Both the first and second material trays have two slots, which are intersected with the two top plates. Both slots are connected to the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0009] Furthermore, both the first and second material trays are provided with grooves that match each reset plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the buffer assembly includes an inner rubber ring fixed to the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove, and an outer rubber ring is fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0011] Furthermore, the outer rubber ring is located outside the inner rubber ring, and the top ends of both the inner and outer rubber rings are in contact with the bottom end of the snap-fit ​​plate.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the convenient and reasonable tray for surface mount components in an X-ray automatic counting machine has the following advantages:

[0013] (1) This utility model can lock the first and second material trays by driving mechanical grippers and cooperating with the two self-locking components on the first and second material trays. The self-locking mechanism can ensure that the material trays are tightly connected during the stacking process, preventing the material trays from falling off due to vibration or improper operation, thereby avoiding damage or loss of components. Furthermore, through self-locking, the material trays can remain stable during the transfer process, reducing safety hazards caused by shaking or tilting, ensuring the safety of materials. Moreover, the self-locking mechanism simplifies the stacking and disassembly process of the material trays, and operators can easily complete the stacking without using additional tools or methods, thus improving work efficiency.

[0014] (2) By setting a reset spring and cooperating with the buffer assembly, this utility model can buffer and reduce the impact force generated during the stacking of the first and second material trays. The buffer function can effectively reduce the collision caused by the impact force during the stacking and transfer of adjacent material trays, thereby avoiding damage to the surface mount components. At the same time, the buffer function can also reduce the friction and wear between material trays, thereby extending the service life of the material trays and reducing the frequency and cost of replacing material trays. It also helps to reduce production interruptions caused by material tray damage. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-7 The technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0027] Example 1:

[0028] In this embodiment, a convenient X-ray automatic counting machine for surface mount components includes a first tray 1 and a second tray 11. The first tray 1 is disposed on top of the second tray 11. Both the first tray 1 and the second tray 11 are provided with a self-locking component 2. Both the first tray 1 and the second tray 11 are provided with a buffer component 3 inside.

[0029] The self-locking assembly 2 includes two top plates 21 fixed on the first material tray 1. The first material tray 1 has a snap-fit ​​groove. A reset plate 22 is slidably arranged on the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove. A reset spring 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the reset plate 22, and the bottom end of the reset spring 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove. Each top plate 21 has multiple plug-in blocks 25 fixedly arranged at its bottom end. The snap-fit ​​plate 24 located on the second material tray 11 has multiple plug-in holes that match the multiple plug-in blocks 25 on the first material tray 1.

[0030] Two top plates 21 are arranged in a ring array on the first material tray 1. Two slots are opened on both the first material tray 1 and the second material tray 11, and the two slots are intersected with the two top plates 21. Both slots are connected to the snap-fit ​​slot.

[0031] Both the first tray 1 and the second tray 11 are provided with sliding grooves that match each reset plate 22;

[0032] When stacking the first tray 1 and the second tray 11, the first tray 1 can be clamped by a mechanical gripper, so that the two locking plates 24 on the first tray 1 are respectively positioned above the two slots opened on the second tray 11. Then, the mechanical gripper is driven to push the first tray 1 downward, so that the bottom of the two locking plates 24 on the first tray 1 simultaneously contacts the top of the reset plate 22 on the second tray 11. As the first tray 1 is continuously pushed, the reset plate 22 can continuously slide inside the locking groove, compressing the reset spring 23 fixed between the reset plate 22 and the inner wall of the locking groove. When the first tray 1 is stacked, the reset plate 22 is stacked downward. When the bottom ends of the two locking plates 24 on the first material tray 1 are flush with the plug-in blocks 25 on the second material tray 11, the first material tray 1 can be rotated 90 degrees by driving the mechanical gripper. When the two locking plates 24 on the first material tray 1 are completely below the two top plates 21 on the second material tray 11, the first material tray 1 can be raised by driving the mechanical gripper. At this time, the reset plate 22 can slide upward under the elastic force of the reset spring 23, and at this time, the multiple plug-in blocks 25 on the second material tray 11 can be inserted into the multiple plug-in holes opened on the surface of the plug-in blocks 25 on the first material tray 1, thereby achieving the purpose of self-locking.

[0033] In this embodiment, the buffer assembly 3 includes an inner rubber ring 31 fixed to the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove, and an outer rubber ring 32 fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0034] The outer rubber ring 32 is located outside the inner rubber ring 31, and the tops of both the inner rubber ring 31 and the outer rubber ring 32 are in contact with the bottom of the snap-fit ​​plate 24.

[0035] During the stacking of the first tray 1 and the second tray 11, the two plug-in blocks 25 on the first tray 1 can contact the reset plate 22 on the second tray 11 with the cooperation of the two self-locking components 2. During this process, the inner rubber ring 31 and the outer rubber ring 32 on the second tray 11 can buffer the downward pressure of the two plug-in blocks 25. At the same time, the reset spring 23 on the second tray 11 can play a buffering role.

[0036] Working principle: During use, when stacking the first tray 1 and the second tray 11, the first tray 1 is gripped by a mechanical gripper, causing the two locking plates 24 on the first tray 1 to be positioned above the two slots on the second tray 11. The mechanical gripper is then driven to push the first tray 1 downwards, causing the bottoms of the two locking plates 24 on the first tray 1 to simultaneously contact the top of the reset plate 22 on the second tray 11. As the first tray 1 continues to be pushed, the reset plate 22 slides continuously inside the locking slots. During the contact between the two insertion blocks 25 on the first tray 1 and the reset plate 22 on the second tray 11, the inner rubber ring 31 and outer rubber ring 32 on the second tray 11 buffer the downward pressure of the two insertion blocks 25. With the cooperation of the reset spring 23 on the second tray 11, it can play a buffering role. Then, the sliding of the reset plate 22 can compress the reset spring 23 fixed between the reset plate 22 and the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove. When the bottom ends of the two snap-fit ​​plates 24 on the first tray 1 are flush with the plug-in blocks 25 on the second tray 11, the first tray 1 can be rotated 90 degrees by driving the mechanical gripper. When the two snap-fit ​​plates 24 on the first tray 1 are completely below the two top plates 21 on the second tray 11, the first tray 1 can be lifted by driving the mechanical gripper. At this time, the reset plate 22 can slide upward under the elastic force of the reset spring 23, and at this time, the multiple plug-in blocks 25 on the second tray 11 can be inserted into the multiple plug-in holes opened on the surface of the plug-in blocks 25 on the first tray 1.

[0037] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
