Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0035] The tube shell detection mechanism 4 includes a fixed base 41, which is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the mounting platform 12. One side of the fixed base 41 is fixedly connected to the linear module 42, and the other side of the linear module 42 is connected to the connecting block 43. A rotary cylinder 44 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the connecting block 43. The end of the rotary cylinder 44 is fixedly connected to the rotary pressing arm 45. The lower end of the rotary pressing arm 45 is correspondingly set with the chip 48.

[0036] The chip 48 is connected to the upper end of the housing 47, the housing 47 is mounted on the upper end of the fixture platform 46, and the lower end of the fixture platform 46 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting platform 12.

[0037] By adopting the above technical solution, the device integrates multiple functional modules such as material selection, assembly, detection and conveying. Through the coordinated work of components such as material selection arm 2, linear module 42, rotary cylinder 44, chip detection industrial camera 14 and chip detection industrial camera 26, the fully automated operation of the tube shell 47 material selection and conveying process is realized, which greatly reduces manual intervention, lowers labor costs and improves production efficiency.

[0038] In this embodiment, the mounting platform 12 is located inside the chassis 11. A lower mounting bracket 13 is also mounted on the upper surface of the mounting platform 12. A chip detection industrial camera 14 is mounted on the lower mounting bracket 13. A light lamp 15 is connected to the upper end of the chip detection industrial camera 14. The chip detection industrial camera 14 is located on one side of the fixture table 46.

[0039] The upper inner side of the chassis 11 is provided with two light panel boxes 16, which are arranged in an alternating manner. Each of the two light panel boxes 16 is provided with an industrial camera 18, and the upper end of the industrial camera 18 is fixedly installed in its respective upper mounting bracket 17.

[0040] By adopting the above technical solution, the device is equipped with multiple industrial cameras in different positions and with different functions, including chip detection industrial camera 14, industrial camera 18 inside the chassis, and chip detection industrial camera 26. These cameras can detect the assembly status of the housing 47 and the chip 48 from multiple angles. With the help of corresponding illumination lamps and lamp board boxes 16, they can accurately detect minor assembly defects and effectively ensure product quality.

[0041] In this embodiment, one of the industrial cameras 18 is provided with a robotic arm 22 at its lower end. The robotic arm 22 is mounted on the upper end of the mounting base 21, and the lower end of the mounting base 21 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting platform 12. The upper end of the robotic arm 22 is provided with a suction bellows 23, and the head of the suction bellows 23 is connected to the head of the robotic arm 22.

[0042] The robotic arm 22 has a through-type lifting screw 24 at its head. The bottom of the lifting screw 24 is connected to the connecting seat 25.

[0043] The lower end of the connector 25 is connected to the connector 28, and the bottom of the connector 28 is provided with a suction nozzle 29, the lower end of which is connected to the chip 48.

The design of the suction bellows 23 and the suction nozzle 29 enables it to adapt to the picking up and conveying of chips 48 of different specifications, thereby enhancing the versatility and applicability of the device.

[0046] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the tube shell material selection and conveying device is working, the robotic arm 22 uses vacuum suction to pick up the chip 48 from the chip arrangement board 32 through the suction bellows 23 and the suction nozzle 29; the chip arrangement board 32 has multiple chips arranged in a rectangular array, which makes it easy for the robotic arm 22 to select them in sequence according to the program settings.

[0047] After the robotic arm 22 picks up the chip 48, it first performs a preliminary image inspection of the chip 48 by passing above the chip detection industrial camera 14 and the illumination lamp 15. Then, the rotary cylinder 44 drives the rotary pressing arm 45 to rotate 180 degrees. The robotic arm 22 adjusts the height of the connecting seat 25 downward through the lifting screw 24, thereby driving the suction nozzle 29 and the chip 48 to move downward, thus initially connecting the chip 48 to the tube shell 47.

[0048] Next, the rotary cylinder 44 drives the rotary pressing arm 45 to rotate back to its original position. The linear module 42 drives the connecting block 43 and the rotary cylinder 44 to move downward, thereby driving the rotary pressing arm 45 to press down and securely connect the chip 48 to the housing 47.

[0049] Then, the industrial cameras 18 inside the two staggered light panel boxes 16 on the inner side of the upper end of the chassis 11 can perform all-round inspection of the assembled tube shell 47 from different angles to ensure product quality.

[0050] Once the inspection is passed, the robotic arm 22 mounted on the mounting base 21 picks up the chip 48 again through the suction bellows 23 and the suction nozzle 29; the chip inspection industrial camera 26 and the illumination lamp 27 at the head of the robotic arm 22 perform a second inspection on the chip 48, and after ensuring that there are no errors, it is transported to the chip layout board 32 for sorting.

[0051] The device integrates multiple functional modules such as material selection, assembly, testing and conveying. Through the coordinated work of components such as material selection arm 2, linear module 42, rotary cylinder 44, chip testing industrial camera 14 and chip testing industrial camera 26, the fully automated operation of the tube shell 47 material selection and conveying process is realized, which greatly reduces manual intervention, lowers labor costs and improves production efficiency.

[0052] The device is equipped with multiple industrial cameras in different positions and with different functions, including chip inspection industrial camera 14, industrial camera 18 inside the chassis and chip inspection industrial camera 26, which can inspect the assembly of the housing 47 and the chip 48 from multiple angles. With the help of the corresponding illumination lamp and lamp board box 16, it can accurately detect minor assembly defects and effectively ensure product quality.

[0053] The robotic arm 22 can be flexibly adjusted in height via the lifting screw 24. The design of the suction bellows 23 and the suction nozzle 29 enables it to pick up and transport chips 48 of different specifications, enhancing the versatility and applicability of the device.
