The conveyor component is used to transport the chip tray loaded with chips to a designated position for chip unloading, and then transport the empty tray to the tray placement area after unloading. However, chip trays are prone to warping and deformation after prolonged use, which can easily lead to malfunctions when unloading chips from the tray. Therefore, a solution is needed to address this issue. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a chip tray pressing device and a chip tray conveying mechanism, which mainly solves the technical problem that chip trays are prone to warping and deformation after long-term use, which leads to malfunctions when picking up chips from the chip tray.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model mainly provides the following technical solutions:

[0005] An embodiment of this utility model provides a chip testing pressing device, which includes a chip tray pressing device, comprising a support platform, a positioning mechanism, and an inclined pressing mechanism;

[0006] The support platform has a support surface, which provides support to the bottom of the chip tray. The support platform is provided with a stop and positioning component.

[0007] The positioning mechanism includes a pusher and a positioning drive mechanism. The positioning drive mechanism is used to drive the pusher to move, so that the pusher pushes the chip tray on the support platform to a positioning position where it abuts against the stop positioning member on the side.

[0008] The inclined pressing mechanism includes a pressing member and an inclined pressing driving mechanism. The inclined pressing driving mechanism is used to drive the pressing member to move along a first direction to press or release the side of the chip tray away from the support surface. The angle between the first direction and the center line of the thickness direction of the chip tray is α, where α is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees.

[0009] In some embodiments, the side of the chip tray has a first side, a second side, a third side and a fourth side connected end to end in the circumferential direction, and a first tray angle is formed between the third side and the fourth side;

[0010] The stop positioning component includes a first stop positioning component and a second stop positioning component, wherein the pusher drives the first chip tray on the support platform to move by pushing the first tray corner; and at the positioning position, the first side of the chip tray abuts against the first stop positioning component, and the second side of the chip tray abuts against the second stop positioning component.

[0011] In some embodiments, the pusher is provided with a push groove, the push groove having a first groove side and a second groove side in a V shape, the pusher pushes the first tray corner through the push groove, and the first groove side is used to abut against the third side, and the second groove side is used to abut against the fourth side.

[0012] In some embodiments, the positioning drive mechanism includes a first drive cylinder to drive the pusher to move via the first drive cylinder.

[0013] In some embodiments, the inclined pressure drive mechanism includes a second drive cylinder, a connecting rod, and a limiting structure. One end of the connecting rod is hinged to the output piston of the second drive cylinder, and the other end of the connecting rod is hinged to the pressing member. The second drive cylinder is used to drive the connecting rod to move, so that the connecting rod drives the pressing member to move along the first direction under the limiting of the limiting structure.

[0014] In some embodiments, the other end of the connecting rod is hinged to the pressing member via a hinge shaft; the pressing member is fixedly connected to the hinge shaft, and the other end of the connecting rod is rotatable relative to the hinge shaft;

[0015] The limiting structure includes a limiting groove disposed on the support platform, the limiting groove extending along the first direction, the hinge shaft being inserted into the limiting groove, the hinge shaft being provided with a limiting plane, the limiting plane being used to slide and engage with the groove wall of the limiting groove to prevent the hinge shaft from rotating within the limiting groove.

[0016] In some embodiments, the chip tray pressing device further includes a lifting mechanism;

[0017] The lifting mechanism includes a lifting block and a lifting drive mechanism. The lifting block is disposed on the support platform. When the pressing member moves along the first direction to an extreme position away from the chip tray, the lifting drive mechanism can drive the lifting block to move, so that the lifting block drives the chip tray on the support platform to rise and fall.

[0018] In some embodiments, the lifting drive mechanism includes a motor, a gear, and a rack, with the rack disposed on the lifting block and the gear meshing with the rack;

[0019] The motor is used to drive the gear to rotate, so that the gear drives the lifting block to move through the rack.

[0021] By employing the above technical solutions, the chip tray pressing device and chip tray conveying mechanism of this utility model have at least the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. Because the pressing component presses against the side of the chip tray that is away from the aforementioned support surface, the warping deformation of the chip tray can be reduced, which is beneficial for subsequent chip removal from the chip tray and reduces the occurrence of failures during chip removal.

[0023] 2. The chip tray on the support platform is raised and lowered by the lifting block, which makes it easy to pick up and put down the tray.

If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.

[0032] Furthermore, if the embodiments of this utility model involve descriptions such as "first" or "second," these descriptions are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, features defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them.

[0033] like Figure 1-3As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides a chip tray pressing device, which includes a support platform 100, a positioning mechanism, and an inclined pressing mechanism. The support platform 100 has a support surface 1001, which provides support for the bottom of the chip tray 10. A stop positioning member is provided on the support platform 100. The positioning mechanism includes a pusher 2 and a positioning drive mechanism 1. The positioning drive mechanism 1 drives the pusher 2 to move, so that the pusher 2 pushes the chip tray 10 on the support platform 100 to a positioning position where its side abuts against the stop positioning member, thereby achieving the positioning of the chip tray 10.

[0034] The inclined pressing mechanism includes a pressing member 6 and an inclined pressing drive mechanism. The inclined pressing drive mechanism is used to drive the pressing member 6 to move along a first direction n to press or release the side of the chip tray 10 opposite to the aforementioned support surface 1001. Wherein, the first direction n is a straight line direction, and the angle between the first direction n and the center line m of the thickness direction of the chip tray is α, where α is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees.

[0035] In the above example, the positioning drive mechanism 1 first drives the pusher 2 to move, so as to push the chip tray 10 to the positioning position. Then, the inclined pressure drive mechanism drives the pressing member 6 to move, so that the pressing member 6 presses against the side of the chip tray 10 away from the aforementioned support surface 1001. Since the pressing member 6 presses against the side of the chip tray 10 away from the aforementioned support surface 1001, the warping deformation of the chip tray 10 can be reduced, which is beneficial for the subsequent chip picking on the chip tray 10 and reduces the occurrence of failures during picking.

[0036] To achieve positioning of the chip tray 10, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the aforementioned chip tray 10 has a first side 10a, a second side 10b, a third side 10c, and a fourth side 10d connected sequentially along its circumferential direction. A first tray angle 10e is formed between the third side 10c and the fourth side 10d. The aforementioned stop positioning members include a first stop positioning member 4 and a second stop positioning member 5. The pusher 2 moves the first chip tray 10 on the support platform 100 by pushing the first tray angle 10e. In the positioning position, the first side 10a of the chip tray 10 abuts against the first stop positioning member 4, and the second side 10b of the chip tray 10 abuts against the second stop positioning member 5.

[0037] In the above example, by pushing the first tray corner 10e of the chip tray 10, the first side 10a and the second side 10b opposite to the first tray corner 10e are pushed against the first stop positioning member 4 and the second stop positioning member 5 respectively, thereby achieving the positioning of the side of the chip tray 10.

[0038] In some implementations, such as Figure 1As shown, the aforementioned pusher 2 may be provided with a push groove 3, which has a V-shaped first groove edge 31 and a second groove edge 32. The pusher 2 pushes the first tray angle 10e through the push groove 3, and the first groove edge 31 is used to abut against the third edge 10c, and the second groove edge 32 is used to abut against the fourth edge 10d.

[0039] In the above example, by designing a V-shaped push groove 3 on the pusher 2, the pusher 2 can easily push against the first tray corner 10e of the chip tray 10.

[0040] In some embodiments, the aforementioned positioning drive mechanism 1 may include a first drive cylinder to drive the pusher 2 to move. The first drive cylinder may be a pneumatic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder, etc.

[0041] To achieve the function of the aforementioned oblique pressure drive mechanism, in some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the aforementioned inclined pressure drive mechanism may include a second drive cylinder 7, a connecting rod 8, and a limiting structure. One end of the connecting rod 8 is hinged to the output piston of the second drive cylinder 7, and the other end of the connecting rod 8 is hinged to the pressing member 6. The second drive cylinder 7 is used to drive the connecting rod 8 to move, so that the connecting rod 8 drives the pressing member 6 to move along the aforementioned first direction n under the limiting of the limiting structure.

[0042] In the above example, the second drive cylinder 7, the connecting rod 8, and the limiting structure work together to achieve the technical effect of the inclined pressure drive mechanism driving the pressing part 6 to move along the first direction n.

[0043] To achieve the function of the aforementioned limiting structure, in some embodiments, the other end of the aforementioned connecting rod 8 is hinged to the pressing member 6 via a hinge shaft 9. The pressing member 6 is fixedly connected to the hinge shaft 9, and the other end of the connecting rod 8 can rotate relative to the hinge shaft 9. The aforementioned limiting structure includes a limiting groove 100a provided on the support platform 100, which extends along the aforementioned first direction n. The hinge shaft 9 is inserted into the limiting groove 100a, and a limiting plane 91 is provided on the hinge shaft 9. The limiting plane 91 is used to slide against the groove wall of the limiting groove 100a to prevent the hinge shaft 9 from rotating within the limiting groove 100a.

[0044] In the above example, the hinge shaft 9 cooperates with the groove wall of the limiting groove 100a to limit the pressing member 6, so that the pressing member 6 can only move along the first direction n, thereby realizing the function of the aforementioned limiting structure to limit the pressing member 6.

[0045] In some implementations, such as Figure 3As shown, the aforementioned chip tray pressing device may further include a lifting mechanism. This lifting mechanism includes a lifting block 11 and a lifting drive mechanism, with the lifting block 11 mounted on the support platform 100. When the pressing member 6 moves along the first direction n to its extreme position away from the chip tray 10, the lifting drive mechanism drives the lifting block 11 to move, causing the lifting block 11 to lift the chip tray 10 on the support platform 100.

[0046] In the above example, the lifting block 11 can first rise to receive the chip tray 10 loaded with chips; then the lifting block 11 descends to place the chip tray 10 on the support surface 1001 of the support platform 100; then the positioning mechanism and the inclined pressing mechanism cooperate to position and press the chip tray 10; after all the chips in the chip tray 10 are removed, the positioning mechanism and the inclined pressing mechanism release the chip tray 10, and the lifting block 11 drives the chip tray 10 to rise to facilitate the removal of the chip tray 10.

[0047] To achieve the functions of the aforementioned lifting drive mechanism, in some embodiments, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the aforementioned lifting drive mechanism may include a motor 12, a gear 13, and a rack 14. The rack 14 is mounted on the lifting block 11 and can remain relatively fixed to the lifting block 11. The gear 13 meshes with the rack 14. The motor 12 drives the gear 13 to rotate, causing the gear 13 to drive the lifting block 11 to move via the rack 14, thereby realizing the function of the lifting drive mechanism to drive the lifting block 11 to rise and fall.

[0048] This utility model also provides a chip tray conveying mechanism, which includes the chip tray pressing device described above. Because the chip tray conveying mechanism uses the aforementioned chip tray pressing device, the pressing member 6 presses against the side of the chip tray 10 facing away from the aforementioned support surface 1001, thereby reducing the warping deformation of the chip tray 10. This facilitates subsequent chip removal from the chip tray 10 and reduces the occurrence of malfunctions during chip removal.

[0049] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
