[0002] In the fields of electronic components, semiconductor packaging, and precision manufacturing, the automated transfer of sockets (such as chip carriers and sensor housings) is a critical step in the production process. Traditional socket transfer equipment typically uses mechanical grippers or vacuum suction devices to transfer sockets from dedicated trays (customized trays designed specifically for a particular model) to universal trays (standard trays compatible with multiple models) to meet subsequent testing, packaging, or transportation needs. However, existing technologies suffer from low socket transfer efficiency in practical applications and require manual pre-adjustment of tray positions or reliance on high-cost vision positioning systems. This makes it difficult to achieve rapid adaptive alignment between specific and universal trays, increasing operational complexity and labor costs.

[0026] The technical solutions of some embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] This embodiment discloses a transfer machine for transferring the internal tube seat of the material tray 41, such as... Figures 1-6 As shown, it includes: a substrate 100, on which a first feeding mechanism 4 and a corresponding first feeding worktable 2, a second feeding mechanism 5 and a corresponding second feeding worktable 3 are arranged sequentially along its length. A transfer mechanism 1 is arranged above the first feeding worktable 2 and the second feeding worktable 3. The transfer mechanism 1 includes an XY axis module 11. A bracket 12 is configured on the outside of the XY axis module 11 and can drive the bracket 12 to move laterally and longitudinally in the motion plane. A nozzle seat 15 and a detection camera 18 are arranged sequentially on the bracket 12. Multiple nozzles 16 are installed in the nozzle seat 15. A gas distribution block 13 corresponding to the multiple nozzles 16 is provided on the bracket 12. The gas distribution block 13 is provided with a connector 14 for connecting an external vacuum generator.

[0029] It should be noted that the XY axis module 11 is existing technology. The XY axis module 11 drives the bracket 12 equipped with the suction nozzle 16 to move along the length direction and vertical direction of the substrate 100, so that after the suction nozzle 16 picks up the tube seat, it can drive the tube seat to be placed inside the universal material tray. Similarly, multiple suction nozzles 16 are adapted to the universal material tray, and the tube seat of the universal material tray can be transferred in a single round trip. During the transfer process, the detection camera 18 can locate the position of the transfer mechanism 1 to improve the transfer efficiency.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, ten suction nozzles 16 are specifically configured in a linear arrangement. The ten suction nozzles 16 are used to transfer the tube seat from the material tray 41 to the general material tray.

[0031] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the detection camera 18 is located on the side away from the second feeding worktable 3 and is used to calibrate the position of the suction nozzle 16.

[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, the suction nozzle 16 is provided with a compression spring 17 on its outside, and the support 12 is provided with a spring buckle on its external compression spring 17.

[0033] It should be noted that when the suction nozzle 16 contacts the tube seat, the pressure between the two can be adjusted by compressing the spring 17, thereby quickly completing the suction of the tube seat.

[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the first loading workbench 2 and the second loading workbench 3 adopt a symmetrical structure design, both of which include a linear module 21. The linear module 21 is equipped with a mounting plate 22 on its outside and can drive the mounting plate 22 to make linear displacement along its axis. The top of the mounting plate 22 is provided with a barcode scanner 24, a cylinder 23 and a limit plate 25 in sequence.

[0035] It should be noted that the linear module 21 is existing technology. The linear module 21 can drive the mounting plate 22 to move closer to the first feeding mechanism 4, thereby moving the barcode scanner 24 to the vicinity of the material tray 41 to complete the barcode scanning. It also drives the cylinder 23 to move to the vicinity of the material tray 41, completing the transfer of the material tray 41's position, and the position of the material tray 41 is restricted by the limiting plate 25. During this process, the first feeding mechanism 4 can move vertically to cooperate in completing the transfer of the material tray 41.

[0036] like Figures 2-4 As shown, the barcode scanner 24 is used to identify the detection code on the tray 41.

[0037] like Figures 2-4 As shown, cylinder 23 is equipped with a suction nozzle for picking up material tray 41.

[0038] like Figures 2-4As shown, the limiting plate 25 is used to limit the position of the material tray 41.

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the first feeding mechanism 4 and the second feeding mechanism 5 have the same structure and are used to carry the material tray 41 and the general material tray respectively, and drive them to move in the vertical direction.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the first feeding mechanism 4 and the second feeding mechanism 5 are equipped with a synchronous belt linear module. The linear module is used to drive the material tray 41 and the universal material tray to move axially along the first feeding worktable 2.

[0041] It should be noted that the linear module is existing technology. The first feeding mechanism 4 and the second feeding mechanism 5 drive the tray support of the loading tray 41 to move in the vertical and horizontal directions through the two linear modules, so as to cooperate with the first feeding worktable 2 and the second feeding worktable 3 to complete the transfer of the position of the tray 41.

[0042] Working principle: The material tray 41 and the general material tray are driven to the bottom of the transfer mechanism 1 by the first feeding mechanism 4 and the corresponding first feeding worktable 2, the second feeding mechanism 5 and the corresponding second feeding worktable 3, and then the transfer mechanism 1 realizes the transfer operation of the tube seat from the material tray 41 to the general material tray, which facilitates the subsequent use of the tube seat.

[0043] The various embodiments of this application have been described above. These descriptions are exemplary and not exhaustive, nor are they limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The terminology used herein is chosen to best explain the principles, practical application, or improvement of the technology in the market, or to enable others skilled in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
