Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of circuit board production equipment, specifically relating to a disassembly device. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of flexible printed circuit boards (FPCBs), experimental tests are required on the in-process or final products to verify specific performance characteristics. Before testing, the FPCBs are typically placed in a carrier, usually consisting of an upper carrier and a lower carrier, with the FPCBs clamped between them. After testing, the FPCBs are generally unusable, while the carrier can be reused. Therefore, the tested carrier needs to be disassembled, a process known as unpacking, and the upper and lower carriers are placed separately, with the discarded FPCBs collected. Currently, the unpacking process is generally done manually. Manual operation is inefficient and cannot be integrated with the production line, potentially impacting the overall production line efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the main purpose of this utility model is to provide a disassembly device that automatically performs disassembly operations.

[0004] To achieve the aforementioned main objectives, this utility model provides a dismantling device, including a frame and a housing. The dismantling device further includes a first conveying device and a first and second dismantling manipulator parallel to each other, both disposed within the housing. The first conveying device conveys products along a first conveying direction. The housing is provided with a first input opening and a first output opening. The carrier to be dismantled enters the first conveying device through the first input opening, and after being dismantled by the first and second dismantling manipulators, the remaining carrier is output outward through the first output opening. The first dismantling manipulator is positioned above the first conveying device and upstream along the first conveying direction, for gripping the carrier to be dismantled. The upper carrier of the carrier includes a first Y-axis moving module and a first Z-axis moving module. The first Z-axis moving module can move horizontally along the first Y-axis moving track of the first Y-axis moving module, and a first gripping mechanism that can move vertically is provided at the bottom. The Y-axis direction is perpendicular to the first conveying direction. The second disassembly robot is arranged above the first conveying device and downstream along the first conveying direction. It is used to grip the circuit board in the carrier and includes a second Y-axis moving module and a second Z-axis moving module. The second Z-axis moving module can move horizontally along the second Y-axis moving track of the second Y-axis moving module, and a second gripping mechanism that can move vertically is provided at the bottom.

[0005] As can be seen from the above scheme, the carrier to be disassembled, including the upper carrier, circuit board, and lower carrier, can enter the first conveying device from the previous production line through the first input opening, and then be conveyed along the first conveying direction. During the conveying process, the first disassembly robot disassembles the upper carrier and collects it as needed, such as placing the upper carrier on a carrier frame for holding the upper carrier that is manually or automatically fed. The second disassembly robot disassembles the circuit board and collects it as needed, such as placing it in a specific position. The lower carrier enters the next production line through the first output opening, thereby realizing the automatic disassembly of the carrier and docking with the production line, improving production efficiency.

[0006] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, the first conveying device includes a first conveying track and a first fixing mechanism and a second fixing mechanism disposed within the first conveying track. Along the first conveying direction, the first fixing mechanism is disposed upstream and the second fixing mechanism is disposed downstream, for fixing and releasing the carrier to be disassembled conveyed in the first conveying device. When the first fixing mechanism fixes the carrier to be disassembled, the first disassembly robot disassembles the carrier. When the second fixing mechanism fixes the carrier to be disassembled, the second disassembly robot disassembles the circuit board.

[0007] As can be seen from the above scheme, by setting the first fixing mechanism and the second fixing mechanism to fix the carrier to be disassembled, it is convenient for the first disassembly robot and the second disassembly robot to disassemble the carrier.

[0008] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, the first fixing mechanism is a first lifting mechanism, and the second fixing mechanism is a second lifting mechanism. When the carrier to be disassembled, which is being transported in the first conveying device, moves to the first position, the first lifting mechanism lifts the carrier to be disassembled, causing it to detach from the first conveying track. When the product to be disassembled without a carrier in the first conveying device moves to the second position, the second lifting mechanism lifts the product to be disassembled, causing it to detach from the first conveying track.

[0009] As can be seen from the above scheme, by setting up a first lifting mechanism and a second lifting mechanism, the carrier to be disassembled is lifted and removed from the first conveying track, so as to facilitate the disassembly of the first and second disassembly manipulators. After disassembly is completed, the lifting mechanism falls back, and the carrier can be placed back on the first conveying track and continue to be conveyed along the first conveying direction.

[0010] According to a specific embodiment of this utility model, the first conveying track further includes a first width adjustment mechanism for adjusting the track width. By setting the width of the first conveying track to be adjustable, it can accommodate various types of carriers to be disassembled, increasing the versatility of the equipment.

[0011] According to a specific embodiment of this utility model, the disassembly equipment further includes a second conveying device for conveying the disassembled upper carrier. The second conveying device further facilitates docking with the production line.

[0012] According to a specific embodiment of this utility model, the second conveying device has two conveying directions: an empty load-bearing frame for carrying the upper carrier is input along the input direction, and a full load-bearing frame with the upper carrier placed on it is output along the output direction. By setting two conveying directions in the second conveying device, the input of the empty load-bearing frame and the output of the full load-bearing frame can share a single opening, saving equipment space.

[0013] According to one specific embodiment of this utility model, the second conveying device includes a second conveying track with adjustable width. By setting the width of the second conveying track to be adjustable, it can accommodate various types of carriers, increasing the versatility of the equipment.

[0014] According to a specific embodiment of this utility model, the dismantling device further includes a lifting platform mechanism for lifting empty load-bearing frames from the second conveying track and placing full load-bearing frames on the second conveying track. By lifting and fixing the load-bearing frames through the lifting platform mechanism, the first dismantling robot can more accurately position itself when placing the carrier onto the load-bearing frames.

[0015] According to a specific embodiment of this utility model, the lifting platform mechanism includes a positioning platform, a support structure, and a drive motor. A guide rail is provided on the support structure, and the drive motor drives the positioning platform to move up and down along the guide rail via a lead screw. The positioning platform is equipped with a positioning structure for positioning the carrier frame. Stable and accurate translation of the positioning platform is achieved through the lead screw and guide rail, and the positioning structure further fixes the carrier frame on the positioning platform, enabling the upper carrier to be accurately positioned on the carrier frame.

[0016] According to a specific embodiment of this utility model, the disassembly device further includes a waste collection section, into which the circuit boards disassembled by the second disassembly robot are placed. The waste collection section facilitates the collection of waste circuit boards.

[0017] To more clearly illustrate the above-mentioned objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Attached Figure Description

[0029] Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, it will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, other possible implementations that can be obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments described herein are all within the scope of protection of this application.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the depaneling device 100 includes a housing 10 and a frame 11. The housing 10 covers the frame 11 to protect the internal structure and has an opening for docking with the production line. The frame 11 includes an outer fixing frame and an upper mounting plate 12 for mounting the first depaneling robot 21, the second depaneling robot 22, and the first conveying device 31, and a lower mounting plate (not shown) for mounting the second conveying device 32 and the lifting platform mechanism 41. The waste collection part 51 is mounted on the upper mounting plate 12, has an opening at the top, and is provided with a downwardly inclined guide surface. The first depaneling robot 21 and the second depaneling robot 22 are located above the first conveying device 31 and along the first conveying direction F, with the first depaneling robot 21 located upstream and the second depaneling robot 22 located downstream.

[0031] The first dismantling robot 21 includes a first Y-axis moving module 211 and a first Z-axis moving module 212, the second dismantling robot 22 includes a second Y-axis moving module 221 and a second Z-axis moving module 222, and the first conveying device 31 includes a first conveying track 311 and a first lifting mechanism 312 and a second lifting mechanism 313 respectively serving as a first fixing mechanism and a second fixing mechanism. The Y-axis direction of the first dismantling robot 21 and the second dismantling robot 22 is perpendicular to the first conveying direction F.

[0032] The following describes the structure of the two dismantling robots in detail, taking the first dismantling robot as an example. The structure of the second dismantling robot is similar to that of the first. The first dismantling robot 21 includes (see [reference]). Figure 4 The first Y-axis movement module 211, and see also Figure 5 The first Z-axis movement module 212. For example... Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first Y-axis moving module 211 includes a first gantry support frame 2111, a first Y-axis moving track 2112, a moving mounting part 2113, and a drive motor 2114. The first Z-axis moving module 212 includes a mounting part 2121, a Z-axis moving part 2122, a quick-change connector 2123, and a suction cup 2124 disposed at the bottom as a first gripping mechanism. The moving mounting part 2113 and the mounting part 2121 are fixed together. The first Z-axis moving module 212 is driven by the drive motor 2114 to move along the first Y-axis moving track 2112. The Z-axis moving part 2122 can drive the suction cup 2124 to move in the vertical direction.

[0033] Figure 6 and Figure 7The first conveying track and the first lifting mechanism of the first conveying device are shown respectively. Two lifting mechanisms, namely the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism, are provided within the first conveying track as fixing mechanisms, corresponding to the first and second positions of the carrier to be disassembled within the conveying track. The structure of the second lifting mechanism may be the same as or similar to that of the first lifting mechanism. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first conveying track 311 includes a conveyor belt 3111 and its drive motor 3113. The adjusting component 3112, serving as the first width adjusting mechanism, can be a motor or cylinder, etc., used to allow the first conveying track 311 to slide along the slide rail 3114 to adjust the width of the track, thereby conveying carriers of different sizes and increasing the versatility of the first conveying device 31. The two ends of the first conveying track 311 correspond to the first input opening and the first output opening on the housing, respectively. The first lifting mechanism 312 includes a lifting positioning plate 3121 and a lifting cylinder 3122. The lifting cylinder 3122 raises and lowers the lifting positioning plate 3121 through multiple guide posts and guide sleeves 3123. Multiple positioning pins can be provided on the lifting positioning plate 3121.

[0034] Figure 8 The structure of the second conveying device is shown. Similar to the first conveying device, it has a second conveying track 321 including a conveyor belt and its drive motor. It may also have a structure such as a motor or cylinder to adjust the width of the track to convey carrier frames of different sizes to carry different types of upper carriers. It has an open end corresponding to the opening on the housing, and the opposite end is inside the housing, corresponding to the lifting platform mechanism. The drive motor that drives the conveyor belt can rotate in both directions to convey empty carrier frames into the housing in the input direction and full carrier frames carrying upper carriers out of the housing in the output direction. Figure 9 The structure of the lifting platform mechanism is shown. The positioning platform 411 is vertically movable and mounted on the support structure 412. The support structure 412 is fixedly mounted on the lower mounting plate and located near the end of the second conveying track 321. The positioning platform 411 extends into the second conveying track 321. The support structure 412 is provided with a guide track 413. A lead screw 414 and a drive motor 415 are used to drive the positioning platform 411 to move up and down along the guide track 413. The support structure is also provided with a blocking member 416. When the carrier frame conveyed by the second conveying device 32 contacts the blocking member 416, the conveying of the carrier frame stops, and the positioning platform 411 rises to lift the carrier frame to receive the upper carrier.

[0035] Figure 10The structure of the waste collection section 51 is shown. The waste collection section 51 is mounted on the upper mounting plate 12. It has an inverted conical opening 511 at the top and an inclined guide surface 512 at the bottom. Circuit boards that enter the waste collection section 51 through the opening 511 pass through the inclined guide surface 512 and further through the opening on the housing to be discharged outside the housing and collected. Figure 11 The structure of the support frame is shown. The support frame 61 has multiple support walls 611, and the top surface 612 is used to support the bottom surface of the upper vehicle. Structures such as pins on the upper vehicle can be located inside the support frame 61, outside the support frame, or partially outside the support frame.

[0036] When disassembling the carrier using this embodiment of the utility model, the carrier to be disassembled enters the first conveying device 31 through the first input opening on the housing 10. After reaching the first position, the first lifting mechanism 312 lifts and fixes the carrier to be disassembled. The first disassembly robot 21 moves along the Y-axis to above the carrier to be disassembled. The first Z-axis moving module 212 drives the suction cup 2124 to move downwards until the suction cup 2124 grabs the upper carrier. Then it moves upwards to disassemble and separate the upper carrier from the carrier to be disassembled. After that, it moves along the Y-axis towards the second conveying device 32. The empty carrier frame 61 enters the housing 10 along the input direction via the second conveying device 32 and is conveyed to contact the blocking member 416. The positioning platform 411 of the lifting platform mechanism 41, driven by the drive motor 415, lifts the empty carrier frame 61 to a certain position and then stops. The suction cup 2124 of the first disassembly robot 21 carrying the upper carrier moves to the top of the carrier frame 61. The first Z-axis moving module 212 drives the suction cup 2124 to move downward until the bottom surface of the upper carrier contacts the top surface of the carrier frame 61, so that the upper carrier is placed on the carrier frame 61. The suction cup 2124 releases the upper carrier and moves upward, and then moves along the Y-axis to the top of the first conveying device 31 to perform the next upper carrier grabbing.

[0037] After the upper carrier is removed, the first lifting mechanism 312 moves downward and places the product to be disassembled, including the circuit board and the lower carrier, back onto the first conveying track 311. The first conveying track 311 further conveys the product along the first conveying direction F to the second position. The second lifting mechanism 313 lifts and fixes the product to be disassembled. The second disassembly robot 22 moves along the Y-axis to above the product to be disassembled. The second Z-axis moving module 222 drives the suction cup, which serves as the second gripping mechanism, to move downward to grip the circuit board. Then, it moves upward and along the Y-axis to above the waste collection section 51. The suction cup releases the circuit board, which enters the waste collection section 51 through the opening 511 and is discharged outside the housing 10 along the inclined guide surface 512 for collection in a container. The waste circuit board is collected outside the housing 10, allowing the collection status to be observed without opening the housing 10. Once the container is full, a new container can be placed without affecting the normal operation of the equipment. Then, it moves along the Y-axis to above the first conveying device 31 for the next circuit board gripping.

[0038] Driven by the drive motor 415, the positioning platform 411 of the lifting platform mechanism 41 lowers the full load frame carrying the upper carrier down onto the second conveying device 32. The motor of the second conveying device 32 rotates in the opposite direction, causing the full load frame to move along the output direction toward the opening of the housing 10 and be collected or docked with the production line.

[0039] After the circuit board is removed, only the downloader remains on the carrier to be disassembled. The second lifting mechanism 313 moves the downloader downward and places it back on the first conveying track 311. The first conveying track 311 further conveys the downloader along the first conveying direction F to the first output opening, where it is collected or connected to the production line.

[0040] It is understood that in other embodiments, the second conveying device may also be configured similarly to the first conveying device, that is, both ends correspond to the openings on the housing, and the mechanism for lifting the carrier frame may not be a lifting platform mechanism but a lifting mechanism set in the middle of the track.

[0041] While the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Any person skilled in the art may make modifications without departing from the scope of the invention; all variations or modifications made in accordance with the present invention shall be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
