[0004] For ease of loading coils, some feeders do not have a fully enclosed outer shell. Also, due to the inherent characteristics of the guide post at the tail of the feeder, the guide post often comes into contact with the slot on the pick-and-place machine during feeder assembly and disassembly, causing impact and potentially leading to guide post breakage. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a reinforcing device for the guide post of the feeder tail of a chip mounter, which aims to improve the strength of the guide post of the feeder tail.

[0011] More preferably, the lower end of the mounting screw is fixed with a self-tapping head.

[0012] More preferably, the lower end of the mounting screw is fixed with a self-tapping head.

[0013] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. The reinforcing block in the reinforcing assembly abuts against the guide column body, when the guide column body is impacted by external force, the impact force is transmitted to the reinforcing block through the guide column body, so that the force borne by the guide column body is shared, thereby greatly increasing the impact force that can be borne by the guide column body.

[0032] When the product is used, it prevents gas from flowing between the side wall of the sealing plate 37 and the inner wall of the cavity 36, affecting the sealing effect in the cavity 36.

[0033] The working principle of the device is as follows:

[0034] First step: Place the reinforcing block 31 on the flying plate 1 and rotate the reinforcing block 31 to make the rear end of the reinforcing block 31 abut against the front side of the guide cylinder 2, and the abutting part 35 is attached to the inclined surface 4, and then vertically press the reinforcing block 31 to make the cavity 36 and the inclined surface 4 form a sealed space through the compressed sealing ring 312.

[0035] Second step: Insert the lower end of the mounting screw 33 into the installation slot 34 and into the threaded slot 32, and then continuously tighten the mounting screw 33 to make the mounting screw 33 continuously move downward until the self-tapping head 331 at the lower end of the mounting screw 33 touches and drills into the flying plate 1.

[0036] Third step: continue to tighten the mounting screw 33, so that the mounting screw 33 screw head continuously moves downwards in the mounting groove 34, and abuts against the rear end of the control rod 39, and continuously presses the rear end of the control rod 39 downwards, so that the control rod 39 rotates along the middle rotating center, and the front end of the control rod 39 rotates upwards, thereby driving the sliding piece 311 arranged in the sliding rail 310 to move upwards along with the rotation of the control rod 39, so that the rear end of the control rod 39 rotates upwards, thereby increasing the volume in the cavity 36 and reducing the pressure in the cavity 36, so that the external air pressure generates a pressure on the cavity 36, at this time, the reinforcing block 31 is pressed and fixed on the flying plate 1 by the atmospheric pressure, until the mounting screw 33 is completely screwed in, the mounting screw 33 screw head abuts against the lower side in the mounting groove 34, and the mounting is completed.
