Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of LED packaging equipment technology, specifically to a storage box for LED brackets. Background Technology
[0002] In the production process of LED chips, to meet the production requirements of key processes such as die bonding, wire bonding, dispensing, and encapsulation, multiple LED chips are usually designed to be interconnected by thin ribs extending from their supports, forming a plate-like structure. Common plate-like structures are mainly divided into two types: TOP support plates and CHIP support plates. This plate-like design facilitates transfer between processes and storage in material boxes.
[0003] In related technologies, a material box typically has a door panel hinged to one side of its front port. The inner side of this door panel and the front face of the box body are respectively provided with magnetic elements that can attract each other. Longitudinal sliding grooves are respectively formed on the outer surfaces of the two side walls near the rear port of the box body, and a panel is inserted into these grooves, allowing it to move up and down. Clearly, the material box does not affect the size of the opening at the front port, making it convenient for users to quickly place the sheet-like body containing multiple LED bead supports into the box body. However, such traditional material boxes rely on an open cavity without positioning, making the supports prone to displacement, shaking, falling off, and stacking during transportation due to vibration. When the material box is flipped, the supports may fall off, causing surface scratches or deformation. Utility Model Content
[0004] In related technologies, LED brackets stored in material boxes are prone to falling off during transportation, resulting in scratches or deformation on their surfaces.

[0006] The material box body has at least one mounting groove for storing LED brackets on its inner side, and the material box body is provided with a limiting channel along its height direction, and the material box body is provided with an elastic driving component.
[0007] A limiting rod, movably inserted into the limiting channel, has a clamping block extending towards the mounting groove at its middle portion. The top end of the limiting rod abuts against the elastic drive member, and the tail end extends downward along the limiting channel and protrudes from the bottom surface of the material box body. The limiting rod is used to move within the limiting channel to switch the material box between a locking phase and a loading phase.
[0008] When the storage box enters the locking stage, the limiting rod moves downward in the limiting channel under the elastic restoring force of the elastic drive member until the clamping block and the mounting groove maintain a locked fit.
[0009] When the storage box enters the loading stage, the limiting rod moves upward in the limiting channel under the action of external force and compresses the elastic drive member, so that a gap channel is formed between the clamping block and the mounting groove for the LED bracket to enter and exit.
[0010] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one embodiment, the top surface of the material box body is provided with a base groove, the bottom of the base groove is provided with the elastic driving member, and the opening of the base groove is aligned with the limiting channel.
[0011] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one embodiment, the top end of the limiting rod is provided with a limiting block, and the limiting block abuts against the elastic drive member.
[0012] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one embodiment, the contact surface between the limiting block and the elastic drive member is provided with a guide slope.
[0013] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one embodiment, the limiting rod is provided with a plurality of clamping blocks spaced apart along its axial direction at its middle part, the number of clamping blocks corresponding to the number of mounting slots, and the clamping blocks moving in the mounting slots.

[0019] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one embodiment, the main body of the material box is provided with multiple hollowed-out windows.
[0020] The beneficial effects of the technical solutions provided in this application include at least the following:
[0021] This application achieves the locking stage of the LED bracket by the cooperation of the limiting rod and the elastic drive component, so that the limiting rod can maintain the locking stage when there is no external force, thus avoiding the bracket from falling off during the transportation of the material box and causing further scratches or deformation on its surface.

[0031] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0032] In related technologies, LED brackets stored in material boxes are prone to falling off during transportation, resulting in scratches or deformation on their surfaces.
[0033] Firstly, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, this application provides a storage box for an LED bracket, which includes: a box body 1, a limiting rod 2, and an elastic driving member 3; wherein,
[0034] The material box body 1 has at least one mounting groove 11 for storing LED brackets on its inner side, and a limiting channel 12 arranged along its height direction is provided on the material box body 1. An elastic driving member 3 is provided on the material box body 1. A limiting rod 2 is movably inserted through the limiting channel 12. A clamping block 21 extending towards the mounting groove 11 is provided in the middle of the limiting rod 2. The top end of the limiting rod 2 abuts against the elastic driving member 3, and the tail end of the limiting rod 2 extends downward along the limiting channel 12 and protrudes from the bottom surface 13 of the material box body 1. The limiting rod 2 is used to move within the limiting channel 12 to switch the material box between a locking stage and a loading stage.
[0035] When the storage box enters the locking stage, the limiting rod 2 moves downward in the limiting channel 12 under the elastic restoring force of the elastic drive 3 until the pressing block 21 and the mounting groove 11 maintain a locked fit.
[0036] When the storage box enters the loading stage, the limiting rod 2 moves upward in the limiting channel 12 under the action of external force and compresses the elastic drive member 3, so that a gap channel for the LED bracket to enter and exit is formed between the clamping block 21 and the groove of the mounting groove 11.
[0037] It should be noted that "moving upward within the limiting channel 12" refers to movement from the bottom surface of the material box body 1 to its top surface within the limiting channel 12. "Moving downward within the limiting channel 12" refers to movement from the top surface of the material box body 1 to its bottom surface within the limiting channel 12.
[0038] In some alternative embodiments, when the storage box needs to enter the loading stage, the main body 1 of the storage box can be placed upright on the plane. At this time, the main body 1 of the storage box is supported on the plane by the tail end of the limiting rod 2. At the same time, the main body 1 of the storage box sinks under its own gravity, while the limiting rod 2 moves upward within the limiting channel 12 and compresses the elastic drive member 3 under the supporting force of the plane (i.e., the external force mentioned in the above embodiments).
[0039] Optionally, the clamping block 21 can extend 2 mm from the limiting channel 12 into the mounting groove 11 to clamp the bracket.
[0040] Optionally, the elastic drive element 3 can be a spring.
[0041] In the above optional embodiments, the working principle of the storage box includes that the elastic drive member 3 is always in a compressed state. Before storing the LED bracket, an external force can be applied to the tail end of the limiting rod 2 to cause the limiting rod 2 and the main body 1 of the storage box to move relative to each other, thereby compressing the elastic drive member 3. At the same time, during the movement of the limiting rod 2, it will drive the pressing block 21 to move and leave space between it and the groove of the mounting groove 11 for the fixed part of the LED bracket to enter and exit. After the LED bracket has been inserted into the mounting groove 11, the limiting rod 2 can be removed from the external force by picking up the storage box or turning the storage box upside down. At this time, the limiting rod 2 moves in the opposite direction under the elastic restoring force of the elastic drive member 3, and the pressing block 21 moves with the limiting rod 2 to cooperate with the groove of the mounting groove 11 to press the LED bracket, thus locking the LED bracket.
[0042] Understandably, since the tail end of the limiting rod 2 extends beyond the bottom surface of the material box body 1, the material box body 1 can be placed upright on a flat surface. At this time, the tail end of the limiting rod 2 supports the flat surface, and the material box body 1 sinks under gravity, compressing the elastic drive component 3. During this process, although the limiting rod 2 remains stationary under the supporting reaction force provided by the flat surface, the sinking of the material box body 1 causes the limiting rod 2 and the clamping block 21 to move upwards relative to the material box body 1, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the slot of mounting slot 11 is "unlocked".
[0043] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the top surface of the material box body 1 is provided with a base groove 4. And as... Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the elastic drive member 3 is provided at the bottom of the base groove 4, and the groove opening of the base groove 4 is aligned with the limiting channel 12.
[0044] It is understood that the base groove 4 is integrated with the material box body 1. When the material box body 1 is placed upright on a flat surface, the weight of the base groove 4 and the material box body 1 will cause the base groove 4 to sink synchronously, causing the bottom of the base groove 4 to compress the elastic drive member 3 and approach the limiting rod member 2, thereby creating a gap at the opening of the mounting groove 11. Through the above cooperation, the material box of the LED bracket of this application realizes the limit control method based on gravity sensing, which does not require additional manual adjustment during use, thus simplifying the loading and locking steps of the LED bracket.
[0045] In some alternative embodiments, a limiting block 23 is provided at the top of the limiting rod 2, and the limiting block 23 abuts against the elastic driving member 3. Preferably, the limiting block 23 may be cylindrical in shape to match the spring member.
[0046] It is understandable that setting a limiting block 23 at the end of the limiting rod 2 can increase the contact area between the limiting rod 2 and the elastic drive 3, making the cooperation between the limiting rod 2 and the elastic drive 3 more stable and reliable when the limiting rod 2 moves.
[0047] Preferably, the top of the limiting block 23 is provided with a guide slope, which is used to contact the elastic drive member 3.
[0048] It is worth noting that the guide ramp, through its tilt angle design, provides directional guidance for the relative movement of the limit block 23 and the elastic drive member 3, ensuring that the two slide along a predetermined trajectory when moving axially, avoiding jamming or deviation caused by friction of the contact surface.
[0049] In some preferred embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the limiting rod 2 has a plurality of clamping blocks 21 spaced apart along its axial direction in the middle. The number of clamping blocks 21 corresponds to the number of mounting grooves 11, and the clamping blocks 21 can move freely in the mounting grooves 11.
[0050] Furthermore, the tail end of the limiting rod 2 is provided with a support seat 22.
[0051] It is worth noting that when the main body 1 of the material box is placed on the plane, the support base 22 supports the limiting rod 2 and provides a supporting force opposite to the direction of gravity of the main body 1 of the material box.
[0052] Preferably, the support base 22 is in the shape of a frustum conical.
[0053] It should be noted that the support base 22 is tapered at the top and thickened at the bottom, so that the bottom of the support base 22 is used to engage with the bottom opening of the limiting channel 12 (acting as a limiting step), thereby limiting the travel of the limiting rod 2 and preventing excessive deformation of the elastic drive member 3.
[0054] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the main body 1 of the material box is cubic. Further, as... Figure 5 As shown, the two inner walls of the material box body 1 are symmetrically provided with multiple pairs of mounting grooves 11 spaced apart in the height direction.
[0055] In conjunction with the above optional embodiments, in some implementations, a limiting channel 12 is provided at each of the four corners of the top surface of the material box body 1, and the four limiting channels 12 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the center of the material box body 1.
[0056] It is understandable that the limiting channels 12 are set at the four corners of the material box body 1, so that the limiting rods 2 can simultaneously clamp the edges of the LED bracket at the four corners, thereby eliminating single-point stress through four-corner synchronous limiting and protecting the 0.1mm ultra-thin bracket.
[0057] Specifically, the main body 1 of the material box is provided with multiple hollow windows 14.
[0058] It should be noted that the perforated window 14 is used to increase airflow during the dehumidification process when the oven blows air.
[0059] The operating principle of the storage box in this application includes:
[0060] Loading stage: The main body 1 of the material box is placed upright. Under the influence of gravity, the main body 1 of the material box sinks and moves downward, while the limiting rod 2 moves upward relative to the main body 1 under the supporting force of the support base 22, thereby compressing the elastic drive component 3. At this time, a gap appears between the clamping block 21 and the mounting groove 11, allowing the LED bracket to be placed into the main body 1 of the material box without obstruction.
[0061] Locking stage: Pick up the material box body 1. At this time, the base groove 4 no longer presses down on the elastic drive member 3. The elastic drive member 3 releases its elastic force and pushes the limiting rod member 2 downward along the limiting channel 12, thereby locking the edges of the bracket at the four corners of the material box body 1. At this time, rotate the material box body 1 180° and place it in the opposite direction, and the locking state of the bracket will remain in effect.
[0062] In summary, this application, through the cooperation of a limiting rod and an elastic drive component, achieves a locking phase for the LED bracket when no external force is applied, preventing the bracket from falling during material box transportation and further causing surface scratches or deformation. Furthermore, the material box in this application does not require electronic control; instead, it achieves physical self-locking through a gravity-spring dual-mode mechanism. Simultaneously, the material box in this application can achieve synchronous four-corner limiting to eliminate single-point stress on the bracket, protecting the ultra-thin bracket structure.
