[0002] In the manufacturing process of electronic products, shaping devices are often used to shape the products. The current shaping process steps are as follows: (1) the product is inspected on the inspection fixture; (2) the product is manually installed onto the shaping device, and the shaping device shapes the product according to the inspection data; (3) the product is taken out from the shaping device and placed on the inspection fixture for inspection. If the data of the product after shaping is found to be unqualified, step (2) is repeated until the shaping requirements are met.

[0036] Detailed Implementation

[0037] To better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0038] It should be understood that the described embodiments are merely some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0039] The terminology used in the embodiments of this utility model is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the utility model. The singular forms “a,” “the,” and “the” used in the embodiments of this utility model and the appended claims are also intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0040] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used in this article is merely a description of the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, and B existing alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.

[0041] This application proposes a shaping device 100.

[0042] Please see Figure 1 For ease of description, the first horizontal direction of the shaping device 100 is defined as the X-axis direction, the second horizontal direction of the shaping device 100 is defined as the Y-axis direction, and the height direction of the shaping device 100 is defined as the Z-axis direction. The X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis directions are all perpendicular to each other.

[0043] The directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," "bottom," "left," "right," "front," and "rear" used in the description of the shaping device 100 in this application are mainly based on the attached description of the shaping device 100. Figure 1 The orientation of the display is described in terms of the positive direction of the Z-axis as "top" or "up", the negative direction of the Z-axis as "bottom" or "down", the positive direction of the X-axis as "right", the negative direction of the X-axis as "left", the positive direction of the Y-axis as "back", and the negative direction of the Y-axis as "front". This does not constitute a limitation on the orientation of the shaping device 100 in the actual application scenario.

[0044] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2In this embodiment of the application, the shaping device 100 includes a fixed base 110 and a positioning mechanism 140, a vision inspection mechanism 150, a shaping mechanism 120, and a driving mechanism 130 disposed on the fixed base 110. The positioning mechanism 140 is used to position the workpiece; the vision inspection mechanism 150 is used to inspect the workpiece; the shaping mechanism 120 is located on one side of the positioning mechanism 140 along the X-axis direction, and includes a pusher 122 movably connected to the fixed base 110, the pusher 122 being adapted to the workpiece; the driving mechanism 130 is electrically connected to the vision inspection mechanism 150, and includes a pushing component 134 that moves linearly along the Z-axis direction. The pushing component 134 extends upward into the shaping mechanism 120 and is used to drive the pusher 122 toward the workpiece according to the detection result of the vision inspection mechanism 150 to shape the workpiece.

[0045] For example, the operation steps of the shaping device 100 are as follows:

[0046] S100. The workpiece is fixed to the fixed base 110 by the positioning mechanism 140;

[0047] S200. The visual inspection mechanism 150 collects the dimensional information of the preset area of ​​the workpiece and calculates the amount of workpiece to be shaped based on the dimensional information.

[0048] S300. The drive mechanism 130 drives the pusher 122 of the shaping mechanism 120 to move and shape the workpiece. The moving distance of the pusher 122 is controlled according to the amount to be shaped calculated in step S200.

[0049] S400. The visual inspection mechanism 150 collects the size information of the preset area of ​​the workpiece again, and calculates the amount of workpiece to be shaped based on the size information.

[0050] If the amount to be shaped is zero, the shaping is complete, and the workpiece can be removed from the shaping device 100.

[0051] If the amount to be shaped is not zero, proceed to step S500;

[0052] S500. Repeat steps S300 and S400.

[0053] The technical solution of this application integrates the positioning mechanism 140, the vision inspection mechanism 150, the shaping mechanism 120 and the driving mechanism 130 into one unit. During the workpiece shaping process, there is no need to repeatedly pick up and place the workpiece and fix it. The degree of automation is high, which helps to save labor costs and improve the product shaping yield.

[0054] Understandably, in this embodiment of the application, the shaping device 100 also includes a control system, which is electrically connected to the vision inspection mechanism 150 and the drive mechanism 130. During operation, the control system receives the detection information from the vision inspection mechanism 150 and calculates the amount to be shaped in the preset area of ​​the workpiece based on the detection information. Then, based on the amount to be shaped, the control system controls the drive mechanism to drive the push head 122 to move an appropriate distance, thereby completing the shaping of the workpiece.

[0055] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the shaping mechanism 120 further includes a connecting block 121, and the pusher 122 is movably connected to the fixed base 110 through the connecting block 121. The connecting block 121 is provided with a receiving cavity for the pushing assembly 134 to extend into. The receiving cavity is provided with a pushing inclined surface 121A on the side near the pusher 122. The driving mechanism further includes a linear drive module 131. The pushing assembly 134 includes a roller 1344. The roller 1344 is rotatably connected to the driving end of the linear drive module 131. The linear drive module 131 is used to drive the roller 1344 to move in the vertical direction, so that the roller 1344 extends into the receiving cavity to push the connecting member and carry the pusher 122 toward the workpiece.

[0056] During operation, the linear drive module 131 lifts the roller 1344 upward, causing the roller 1344 to extend into the receiving cavity and contact the pushing inclined surface 121A. As the roller 1344 continues to rise, it pushes the connecting block 121 and moves towards the workpiece along the X-axis to shape the workpiece. During this process, the roller 1344 rotates, and the contact area between the roller 1344 and the pushing inclined surface 121A continuously changes.

[0057] Please continue reading. Figure 2 In some embodiments, the linear drive module 131 includes a servo motor 1311 and an electric cylinder 1312. The pushing assembly 134 also includes a push rod 1341. The electric cylinder 1312 is located below the connecting block 121. The servo motor 1311 is used to drive the piston rod of the electric cylinder 1312 to move along the Z-axis. The push rod 1341 is located above the electric cylinder 1312, specifically at the top of the piston rod of the electric cylinder 1312. A roller seat 1342 is provided on the top of the push rod 1341. The roller 1344 is rotatably mounted on the roller seat 1342 via a rotating shaft 1343. The axial direction of the rotating shaft 1343 (the direction of the rotation center axis of the roller 1344) is the Y-axis direction.

[0058] In some embodiments, the linear drive module 131 further includes a first pressure sensor 133, which is located at the top of the piston rod of the electric cylinder 1312, and the push rod 1341 is located above the first pressure sensor 133. The first pressure sensor 133 is used to monitor the pressure changes inside the electric cylinder 1312 in real time. The pressure signal fed back by the first pressure sensor 133 can accurately control the movement speed and position of the push rod 1341, improving its control accuracy and stability, and preventing damage caused by overpressure or underpressure.

[0059] In some embodiments, a first slide rail 1372 is provided on the fixed base 110, extending along the Z-axis. A first mounting base is also provided between the roller base 1342 and the push rod 1341, and a first slider 1371 adapted to the first slide rail 1372 is provided on the first mounting base. The first slider 1371 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 1372. During the lifting and lowering process of the push rod 1341 and the roller 1344, the first slide rail 1372 plays a guiding role, which helps to improve the shaping accuracy of the workpiece.

[0060] Please see Figure 4 In some embodiments, the shaping mechanism 120 further includes a first adjusting block 123. A first slide is provided at one end of the connecting block 121 near the positioning mechanism 140. The first adjusting block 123 is mounted on the first slide by a first adjusting bolt 124, so that the position of the first adjusting block 123 in the Y-axis direction is adjustable, thereby improving the shaping accuracy of the workpiece.

[0061] In some embodiments, a second slide rail is provided on the fixed base 110, extending along the X-axis direction. A second slider adapted to the second slide rail is provided at the bottom of the connecting block 121, and the second slider is slidably connected to the second slide rail. During the movement of the push head 122, the second slide rail serves as a guide.

[0062] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the fixing base 110 includes a base plate 111, on which the visual inspection mechanism 150 and the shaping mechanism 120 are both disposed. A first through hole is provided on the base plate 111, located below the receiving cavity of the connecting block 121. The fixing base 110 also includes a third mounting bracket 1113, through which the linear drive module 131 of the drive mechanism 130 is fixed to the base plate 111. Specifically, the third mounting bracket 1113 is... The bottom of the third mounting bracket 1113 is fixed to the top of the cylinder body of the electric cylinder 1312 by bolts. The bottom of the third mounting bracket 1113 is provided with a second through hole. The upper end of the piston rod of the electric cylinder 1312 passes through the second through hole and is connected to the first pressure sensor 133. The bottom of the push rod 1341 is connected to the top of the first pressure sensor 133. The top of the push rod 1341 passes through the first through hole and is rotatably connected to the roller 1344.

[0063] Please see Figure 4 In some embodiments, the positioning mechanism 140 includes an XY-axis positioning module 141, which is disposed on the base plate 111. The XY-axis positioning module 141 includes a support base 1411 for supporting the workpiece, a slide cylinder 1412, and a clamping block 1413. The front side of the support base 1411 is recessed with an opening 1411a, which extends downward from the top of the support base 1411 and is used for the workpiece to extend into. The slide cylinder 1412 is disposed on the front side of the support base 1411. The clamping block 1413 is fixed to the slide cylinder 1412 and is disposed corresponding to the opening 1411a. The slide cylinder 1412 is used to drive the clamping block 1413 to move along the Y-axis direction. The clamping block 1413 is used to cooperate with the support base 1411 to restrict the movement of the workpiece in the horizontal direction.

[0064] During operation, the workpiece is clamped on the support base 1411, and part of the workpiece extends downward into the opening 1411a. The slide cylinder 1412 drives the clamping block 1413 to move toward the workpiece to clamp it, thereby restricting the position of the workpiece in the X-axis and Y-axis directions, that is, restricting the position of the workpiece on the horizontal plane.

[0065] It should be noted that in the above embodiments, when the shape of the workpiece changes, the shapes of the support base 1411 and the clamping block 1413 can be adjusted according to the shape of the workpiece so that the cooperation between the clamping block 1413 and the support base 1411 can restrict the movement of the workpiece in the horizontal direction.

[0066] Please continue reading. Figure 4 In some embodiments, the XY positioning module 141 further includes a pad 1415, which is disposed below the slide cylinder 1412 to adjust the position of the slide cylinder 1412 in the Z-axis direction, thereby making the clamping position of the clamping block 1413 on the workpiece adjustable.

[0067] In the above embodiments, the pad 1415 can be a lifting platform, an adjustable stack of blocks, or other structures with adjustable height that facilitate stable installation of the slide cylinder 1412. This application does not impose any particular limitation on this, and those skilled in the art can make adjustments according to the actual situation.

[0068] Please continue reading. Figure 4In some embodiments, the XY-axis positioning module 141 further includes a stop assembly; the stop assembly includes a mounting base, referred to as a second mounting base 1416, a second adjusting bolt 1418, and a stop block 1417 cooperating with the second adjusting bolt 1418. The stop block 1417 is disposed on the slide cylinder 1412, and the second adjusting bolt 1418 is disposed on the pad block 1415 via the second mounting base 1416. The second adjusting bolt 1418 extends along the Y-axis and is located behind the stop block 1417. The clamping block 1413 has a clamping position for clamping the workpiece. In the clamping position, the front end of the second adjusting bolt 1418 abuts against the stop block 1417. By providing the stop assembly, it is possible to prevent the clamping block 1413 from over-clamping the workpiece and causing the workpiece to be squeezed and deformed when the clamping block 1413 has moved to the clamping position but the slide cylinder 1412 continues to drive the clamping block 1413 toward the workpiece.

[0069] Please continue reading. Figure 4 In some embodiments, the positioning mechanism 140 further includes a Z-axis positioning module 142, which is disposed on the base plate 111. The Z-axis positioning module 142 includes a spinning cylinder 1421, a connecting seat 1422, a spring, and a clamping shaft 1423. The spinning cylinder 1421 is located behind the support base 1411, and the drive shaft of the spinning cylinder 1421 extends along the Z-axis direction. The connecting seat 1422 is located at the top of the drive shaft of the spinning cylinder 1421, and the connecting seat 1422 has a mounting groove inside. The sidewall of the mounting groove has a clamping shaft along the Z-axis direction. The mounting groove 1422a extends in the Z-axis direction. The bottom wall of the mounting groove has an opening. The spring is located in the mounting groove and extends in the Z-axis direction. The upper end of the clamping shaft 1423 extends into the mounting groove and abuts against the lower end of the spring. The side wall of the clamping shaft 1423 has a protruding locking block 14231 that matches the mounting groove 1422a. When the spring is in its natural extension state, the lower end of the clamping shaft 1423 extends out from the opening. The clamping shaft 1423 is used to cooperate with the support seat 1411 to restrict the movement of the workpiece in the Z-axis direction when the vision inspection mechanism 150 inspects the workpiece.

[0070] Specifically, during the operation, before the visual inspection mechanism 150 inspects the workpiece, the workpiece is first positioned by the XY positioning module 141 to restrict the movement of the workpiece in the horizontal direction; then the spin cylinder 1421 drives the clamping shaft 1423 to move above the workpiece and clamp the workpiece to restrict the movement of the workpiece in the vertical direction.

[0071] In the above embodiments, the downward pressure of the Z-axis positioning module 142 is relatively light, which can both restrict the movement of the workpiece in the vertical direction and prevent the workpiece from being deformed due to excessive compression.

[0072] Please see Figure 1In some embodiments, the positioning mechanism 140 further includes a pressing module 143, which is disposed above the support base 1411. The pressing module 143 includes a pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder 1431 and a pressing head 1433. The pressing head 1433 is disposed below the pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder 1431 and is connected to the pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder 1431 via a floating joint 1432. During the workpiece shaping process, the pressing module 143 cooperates with the XY-axis positioning module 141 to position the workpiece. The XY-axis positioning module 141 restricts the horizontal movement of the workpiece, while the pressing module 143 restricts the vertical movement of the workpiece. During the workpiece shaping process, the workpiece is subjected to a large force; therefore, this embodiment selects a pressing module 143 with a large downward force to ensure that the workpiece does not move during the shaping process.

[0073] Please continue reading. Figure 1 In some embodiments, the fixing base 110 further includes a first fixing plate 112 and a second fixing plate 113. The first fixing plate 112 and the second fixing plate 113 are arranged sequentially from bottom to top above the base plate 111. The base plate 111 and the second fixing plate 113 are connected by a guide post 114. The first fixing plate 112 is slidably sleeved on the guide post 114. The visual inspection mechanism 150, the shaping mechanism 120, the XY positioning module 141 and the Z positioning module 142 are arranged on the base plate 111. The gas-liquid booster cylinder 1431 of the pressing module 143 is arranged on the second fixing plate 113. The floating joint 1432 and the pressure head 1433 of the pressing module 143 are arranged on the first fixing plate 112. The floating joint 1432 is located above the first fixing plate 112, and the pressure head 1433 is located below the first fixing plate 112.

[0074] Specifically, a first mounting bracket 1111 and a second mounting bracket 1112 are provided on the base plate 111. The second mounting bracket 1112 is located behind the first mounting bracket 1111. The shaping mechanism 120, the XY positioning module 141 and the Z positioning module 142 are all located on the first mounting bracket 1111.

[0075] In some embodiments, a second pressure sensor is provided on the first mounting bracket 1111 to detect whether the pressure head 1433 of the pressing module 143 has been pressed down to the correct position. During operation, the second pressure sensor detects the downward pressure of the pressing module 1433 in real time. When the downward pressure reaches a preset pressure value, the gas-liquid booster cylinder 1431 stops driving the pressure head 1433 to move downward.

[0076] Please continue reading. Figure 1 In some embodiments, the pressure module 143 further includes a solenoid valve 1434 disposed on the second fixed plate 113. The solenoid valve 1434 is used to realize the reversal of the gas-liquid booster cylinder 1431.

[0077] Please see Figure 1and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the pusher 122 has an initial position away from the support 1411 and a pre-shaping position close to the support 1411. In the pre-shaping position, the pusher 122 contacts the workpiece, and the roller 1344 is located below the pushing inclined surface 121A. The drive mechanism also includes a pen-shaped cylinder 135 and a tension spring 136 extending along the X-axis. Both the pen-shaped cylinder 135 and the tension spring 136 are mounted on the first mounting bracket 1111. The pen-shaped cylinder 135 is located on the side of the connecting block 121 facing away from the pusher 122 and is used to push the pusher 122 from the initial position to the pre-shaping position. One end of the tension spring 136 is fixed to the base plate 111, and the other end is fixed to the connecting block 121. The tension spring 136 is used to return the pusher 122 from the pre-shaping position to the initial position.

[0078] During the operation, after the positioning mechanism 140 fixes the workpiece to the fixed base 110, the pen-shaped cylinder 135 first pushes the pusher 122 from the initial position to the pre-shaping position. Then, the drive mechanism drives the pusher 122 to move towards the workpiece for formal shaping. After shaping, the drive mechanism resets, causing the pusher 122 to return to the pre-shaping position. The piston rod of the pen-shaped cylinder 135 retracts into the cylinder body, and the tension spring 136 resets, driving the pusher 122 back from the pre-shaping position to the initial position.

[0079] In some embodiments, in order to balance the uniformity of force on the front and rear ends of the connecting block 121, the axial direction of the pen-shaped cylinder 135 is directed towards the middle of the left or right side of the connecting block 121, and there are two tension springs 136, which are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the pen-shaped cylinder 135.

The slide 151 has multiple sets of first screw holes along the Y-axis, and the mounting plate 152 has second screw holes. The second screw holes can selectively match one set of the multiple sets of first screw holes. Bolts pass through the matched second and first screw holes to fix the mounting plate 152 and the slide 151. The camera 153 is mounted on the mounting plate 152, with its lens facing forward. By providing multiple sets of first screw holes on the slide 151 that selectively match the first screw holes on the mounting plate 152, the position of the camera 153 in the Y-axis direction is adjustable.

[0082] In some embodiments, a lens holder 11121 is provided on the second mounting bracket 1112 to support the lens of the vision inspection mechanism 150.

[0083] In some embodiments, the visual inspection mechanism 150 further includes a backlight source disposed in front of the XY-direction positioning module 141, for providing backlighting for the workpiece when the camera 153 takes a picture.

[0084] In the above embodiments, the height of the backlight is adjustable. In a specific embodiment, a backlight mounting plate 152 is provided in front of the first mounting bracket 1111 at a position corresponding to the XY-axis positioning module 141. A Z-axis driving cylinder is provided on the backlight mounting plate 152, and the backlight is located at the driving end of the Z-axis driving cylinder.

[0085] Please see Figure 1 In some embodiments, a shaping mechanism 120 is provided on each of the left and right sides of the positioning mechanism 140, and the driving mechanism is correspondingly provided with the shaping mechanism 120. During operation, both sides of the workpiece can be shaped simultaneously, or only the left or right side of the workpiece can be shaped selectively, depending on the actual needs. By providing a shaping mechanism 120 on each of the left and right sides of the positioning mechanism 140, the shaping efficiency of the workpiece can be effectively improved.

[0086] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of this application, those skilled in the art can adjust the number and placement of the shaping mechanism 120 according to actual application needs, and are not limited to the setting method in the above embodiments.

[0087] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
