[0028] Reference Figure 1 A positioning fixture for LED bead production according to a first aspect embodiment of the present invention is characterized in that it comprises:

[0029] Frame 100; Frame 100 serves as the basic structure of the entire fixture, providing a stable support platform. Its design needs to consider sufficient strength and rigidity to ensure that it will not deform due to external forces during production, thus affecting positioning accuracy.

[0030] The frame 100 is provided with a conveying mechanism 200 in the middle. The conveying mechanism 200 is located in the middle of the frame 100 and is responsible for conveying the LED beads to be inserted to the designated position. The design of the conveying mechanism 200 needs to ensure smooth and continuous transport to reduce production interruptions and improve efficiency. The conveying mechanism 200 is equipped with a clamping plate 300 for inserting LED beads. The clamping plate 300 includes a template 310 and a support plate 320. Several first support columns 321 are provided at the corners of the support plate 320. The template 310 is supported above the support plate 320 via the first support columns 321. Several second support columns 322 are also provided on the support plate 320 within the coverage area of ​​the template 310 and below it. The clamping plate 300 consists of a template 310 and a support plate 320. The template 310 is supported above the support plate 320 via the first support columns 321. This double-layer structure design ensures the stability of the template 310 and facilitates the fixing and adjustment of the support plate 320. The design of the first support columns 321 and the second support columns 322 not only enhances the structural strength of the clamping plate 300, but also... The template 310 provides necessary support to ensure that it will not shift due to weight or external force during production. The template 310 has several arrayed positioning holes 311, each with two symmetrically arranged guide holes 312 at its edge. The guide holes 312 communicate with the positioning holes 311. Both the positioning holes 311 and the guide holes 312 are circular. Each positioning hole 311, when connected to the two guide holes 312, forms an elliptical positioning through-hole. The upper end of the positioning through-hole has a flared structure. The positioning holes 311 and guide holes 312 on the template 310 together form an elliptical positioning through-hole. This design allows LED beads to be smoothly inserted into the positioning holes 311 along the guide holes 312, improving positioning accuracy and ease of operation. The flared structure at the upper end of the positioning through-hole provides a certain amount of space when inserting the LED beads, reducing product damage caused by operational errors.

[0031] A lifting mechanism 400 is provided above the frame 100. The lifting mechanism 400 includes a movable plate 410 that can move up and down, a driver 420 fixedly installed on the top of the frame 100 for driving the movement of the movable plate 410, and a guide device 430 for guiding the movement of the movable plate 410. The movable plate 410 of the lifting mechanism 400 can move up and down, which makes the placement and removal of LED beads more flexible and also provides the possibility for the integration of automated equipment. The driver 420 is responsible for driving the lifting movement of the movable plate 410, while the guide device 430 ensures the accuracy and stability of the movement of the movable plate 410. The coordinated work of the two ensures the efficient operation of the lifting mechanism 400. The side of the movable plate 410 is movably and retractably fitted with a mounting plate 500 for array placement of LED beads to be inserted. The mounting plate 500 on the side of the movable plate 410 is used to array placement of LED beads to be inserted. This design allows for batch processing and improves production efficiency.

[0032] A positioning fixture for LED bead production according to an embodiment of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0033] This embodiment of the invention utilizes the elliptical positioning through-hole formed by the positioning hole 311 and guide hole 312 on the template 310 to achieve precise positioning of the LED beads, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the bead insertion. The first support column 321 at the corner of the support plate 320 and the second support column 322 on the support plate 320 provide a stable support structure, enhancing the overall stability of the fixture and improving reliability during production. The lifting mechanism 400 allows the movable plate 410 to move up and down, facilitating the placement and removal of LED beads and improving operational convenience. The combination of the lifting mechanism 400 and the conveying mechanism 200 provides a foundation for automated production, enabling collaboration with automated equipment to improve production efficiency. The LED bead array placement design on the mounting plate 500 allows for adjustments to the bead arrangement according to different production needs, increasing the flexibility and expandability of the fixture. Precise positioning and a stable structural design reduce errors and rework during production, lowering production costs. The movable, pull-out installation method of the movable plate 410 reduces safety hazards during operation, protecting operator safety. Easy to maintain: The structural design is relatively simple, which facilitates daily maintenance and cleaning and helps to maintain the long-term stable operation of the equipment.

[0034] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the conveying mechanism 200 includes two parallel synchronous belts 210 respectively disposed inside the frame 100, and a synchronous motor driving the synchronous belts 210. The synchronous belt 210 transmission is characterized by high efficiency, low friction loss, and a transmission efficiency typically exceeding 90%. This means that in the LED chip production process, the conveying mechanism 200 can achieve efficient power transmission with minimal energy loss; furthermore, the synchronous motor can provide precise speed and position control, which is crucial for LED chip production requiring precise positioning. The synchronous belt 210 transmission ensures accuracy during the conveying process, contributing to improved product assembly precision and quality. The design of the conveying mechanism 200, through the use of synchronous belts 210 and synchronous motors, achieves high-efficiency, high-precision, and high-stability material conveying, contributing to improved LED chip production efficiency and product quality.

[0035] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the driver 420 includes an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder.

[0036] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the guiding device 430 includes a guide cylinder 431 installed on the top of the frame 100, and a guide post 432 slidably sleeved inside the guide cylinder 431. The lower end of the guide post 432 is fixedly connected to the movable plate 410. The cooperative use of the guide cylinder 431 and the guide post 432 can provide precise guidance for the movable plate 410, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the movable plate 410 during the lifting process. Installing the guide cylinder 431 on the top of the frame 100 and slidably sleeved inside the guide cylinder 431 makes the entire guiding device 430 compact, saves space, and is easy to integrate into existing mechanical structures. Due to the sliding contact between the guide post 432 and the guide cylinder 431, this design facilitates daily maintenance and cleaning, and helps maintain the long-term stable operation of the equipment.

[0037] According to some embodiments of this utility model, at least two parallel guide rails 411 are installed on the bottom of the movable plate 410, and the mounting plate 500 is slidably connected to the guide rails 411 and inserted into the bottom of the movable plate 410. By installing parallel guide rails 411 on the bottom of the movable plate 410 and slidably connecting the mounting plate 500 to them, the smooth movement of the mounting plate 500 on the bottom of the movable plate 410 can be ensured, reducing LED bead positioning errors caused by friction or uneven movement. The design of the guide rails 411 helps to accurately position the mounting plate 500 on the bottom of the movable plate 410, which is crucial for ensuring the accurate placement of the LED beads.

[0038] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the bottom of the mounting plate 500 is provided with a plurality of adsorption devices 510. Each adsorption device 510 includes a vacuum guide groove 511 and a plurality of vacuum suction cups 512 disposed at the bottom of the vacuum guide groove 511 for adsorbing LED beads. The vacuum suction cups 512 can quickly create a vacuum environment, firmly adsorbing the LED beads and ensuring stability during handling, processing, or assembly. Since the vacuum suction cups 512 are typically made of rubber, they will not cause damage to the workpiece during adsorption and placement, making them suitable for precision equipment manufacturing processes. The design of the vacuum suction cups 512 is flexible and can be customized according to different workpiece shapes and sizes. Whether the workpiece is flat, curved, or irregularly shaped, the vacuum suction cups 512 can achieve a tight fit by adjusting the shape and material of the suction cups, ensuring the adsorption effect.
