Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of semiconductor equipment, and in particular to an assembly equipment and assembly system. Background Technology

[0002] Existing pick-and-place machines are only compatible with wafer products. After wafer dicing, the wafer is placed on the machine via a chip ring, and the chips are then lifted by ejector pins for placement. In some practical scenarios, such as when wafers require baking, the individual chips after dicing need to be placed on a tray for further processing before placement. However, since the tray holding the wafers is not a wafer product, it cannot be directly configured onto existing pick-and-place machines. Therefore, a different approach is needed. Figure 1 The adapter shown is used to match the material tray and the pick-and-place machine. However, currently, the staff needs to manually place the material tray onto the adapter. Therefore, the force applied by the staff needs to be strictly controlled, otherwise there will be certain risks to product quality.

This utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this utility model.

[0039] Please see Figures 1-5It should be noted that the illustrations provided in this embodiment are only schematic representations of the basic concept of this utility model. Therefore, the illustrations only show the components related to this utility model and are not drawn according to the actual number, shape and size of the components in the actual implementation.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides an assembly device, including: an adapter clamp, a tray clamp, and a work platform.

[0042] like Figure 2 As shown, the adapter fixture is located above the work platform and is set on the first side of the work platform. The opposite side of the first side is the first working area, in which the adapter is placed.

[0043] Specifically, in this embodiment, the adapter clamp can achieve automated operation and can be configured with its own motion trajectory, operating force, and operation time as needed. The function of the adapter clamp is to grip the adapter located in the first working area onto the work platform, so as to facilitate the subsequent assembly of the material tray onto the adapter. The first working area and the adapter clamp are set relative to each other based on the work platform to facilitate the operation of the adapter clamp. As an example, the adapter clamp can adopt a gripper structure. In practical applications, the specific structure of the adapter clamp can be selected according to needs and is not limited to this embodiment.

[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, the material tray clamp is located above the work platform and is set on the second side of the work platform. The opposite side of the second side is the second working area, in which the material tray is placed.

[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, the tray clamp can automate operations and can be configured with its own motion trajectory, operating force, and operation time as needed. The tray clamp's function is to grip the tray from the second working area onto the adapter already placed on the work platform and install the tray inside the adapter, achieving automatic assembly of the tray and adapter and avoiding the need for manual placement of the tray onto the adapter. The second working area and the tray clamp are positioned relative to each other on the work platform to facilitate the operation of the tray clamp. As an example, the tray clamp can adopt a gripper structure; in practical applications, the specific structure of the tray clamp can be selected as needed, and is not limited to this embodiment. Furthermore, the adapter clamp and the first working area are positioned in the first direction, and the tray clamp and the second working area are positioned in the second direction, with the first and second directions perpendicular. This is to ensure that the gripping operations of the adapter clamp and the tray clamp cooperate to complete the automatic assembly of the tray and adapter. In practical applications, the specific installation positions of the adapter clamp and the tray clamp can be set as needed, and are not limited to this embodiment.

[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, the work platform includes an adapter blocking strip, which is disposed on the upper surface of the work platform.

[0047] Specifically, in this embodiment, the working platform can automate operations and can rotate to cooperate with the adapter clamp and the tray clamp respectively. The function of the working platform is to provide an operating platform for the adapter clamp and the tray clamp. As an example, the working platform is a rotating disk. In actual applications, the specific shape of the working platform can be set as needed and is not limited to this embodiment. Furthermore, the adapter blocking strip on the working platform is used to fix the adapter on the working platform so that the tray can be installed in the adapter later. Even further, the working platform also includes an adapter positioning pin, which is set on the upper surface of the working platform and is positioned opposite to the adapter blocking strip. The adapter positioning pin is used to position the adapter on the working platform, and when the adapter positioning pin and the adapter blocking strip are positioned opposite each other, the adapter can be further fixed.

[0048] It should be noted that, as an example, the workflow of the assembly equipment is as follows: Figure 2As shown, firstly, the adapter clamp picks up the adapter from the first working area and places it on the work platform according to the adapter positioning pin; secondly, the adapter blocking strip of the work platform pops out from the work platform to fix the adapter; thirdly, the work platform rotates to a set angle to facilitate the subsequent operation of the tray clamp; fourthly, the tray clamp picks up the tray from the second working area and pulls it into the adapter to complete the installation; finally, the adapter clamp grabs the adapter with the tray installed back to the first working area, after which the operator can place the assembled tray onto the pick-and-place machine so that the pick-and-place machine can process the material on the tray.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] like Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides an assembly system, including: a material tray box, an adapter box, and assembly equipment.

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, the adapter box contains stacked adapters and is located in the first work area of ​​the assembly equipment.

[0052] Specifically, in this embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the adapter box can accommodate multiple adapters in layers. The adapter fixture of the assembly equipment picks up the adapters from the adapter box and places them into the work platform. Furthermore, the assembly system also includes a first lifting platform, on which the adapter box is located (the first lifting platform is located within the first working area). That is, the first lifting platform can cooperate with the adapter box to enable the adapter fixture to complete multi-layer clamping work, thereby improving the working efficiency of the assembly equipment.

[0053] like Figure 3 As shown, the material tray box contains stacked material trays, and the material tray box is located in the second working area of ​​the assembly equipment.

[0054] Specifically, in this embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the structure of the tray box can be similar to that of the adapter box, and it can accommodate multiple trays in layers. The tray clamp of the assembly equipment picks up the tray from the tray box and places it into the adapter installed on the work platform. Furthermore, the assembly system also includes a second lifting platform, on which the tray clamp is located (the second lifting platform is located in the second working area). That is, the second lifting platform can cooperate with the tray box to enable the tray clamp to complete multi-layer clamping work, thereby improving the working efficiency of the assembly equipment.

[0055] Specifically, in this embodiment, the assembly system also includes a conveyor belt located on the input side of the second work area. After all the trays in the tray box in the second work area have been assembled, the conveyor belt can continue to input the next tray box into the second work area, enabling the assembly system to complete assembly line operations. Furthermore, the assembly system also includes a transmission component and a gripper. The transmission component is arranged along the movement direction of the tray box and passes through the second work area. The gripper is sleeved on the transmission component and drives the tray box to move. That is, the tray box is input into the second work area by the conveyor belt, and after all the trays in the tray box have been assembled in the second work area, the gripper grips the tray box and outputs it from the second work area, further optimizing the assembly line operation of the assembly system and improving the working efficiency of the assembly system. As an example, the transmission assembly includes a movable lead screw, a first slide rail, and a second slide rail. The first and second slide rails are arranged parallel to each other along the movement direction of the material tray and pass through the second working area. The movable lead screw connects the gripper and the conveyor belt. The movable lead screw can be positioned between the first and second slide rails, and one end of the movable lead screw can be fixed to the conveyor belt, while the other end can be fixed to the gripper. In practical applications, the specific type and location of the transmission assembly can be set as needed, and are not limited to this embodiment.

[0056] In summary, the assembly equipment and system of this utility model include: an adapter clamp, a tray clamp, and a work platform. First, the adapter clamp pulls the adapter onto the work platform and secures it. Second, the tray clamp pulls the tray onto the work platform and installs the tray into the adapter. Finally, the adapter clamp removes the adapter with the tray installed from the work platform. Ultimately, this utility model can automatically assemble the tray and adapter, avoiding the risks of manual assembly. Furthermore, this utility model has the advantages of simple structure and convenient operation. Therefore, this utility model effectively overcomes the various shortcomings of the prior art and has high industrial application value.
