Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of lens copper pillar crimping machine technology; and discloses a waste collection device for lens copper pillar crimping machine, including a mounting box. This utility model folds the mounting strap so that it adheres tightly to the outer surface of the crimping machine equipment. Simultaneously, the mounting strap is inserted into the moving groove, and pulling the mounting strap upwards causes the positioning groove to move on the outer surface of the locking plate. The spring's elasticity supports the locking plate, allowing it to automatically move towards the mounting strap. This allows the locking plate's wedge-shaped block to automatically engage with the wedge-shaped groove of the positioning groove. Through the mutual engagement of the positioning groove's wedge-shaped groove and the locking plate's wedge-shaped block, the positioning groove will not automatically move downwards when pulled upwards. Therefore, by tightening the mounting strap, the mounting box can be quickly positioned on the appropriate outer surface of the crimping machine, and the air pump can then be started to collect the waste generated during the crimping process using a suction head.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of lens copper pillar crimping machines; more specifically, it relates to a waste collection device for lens copper pillar crimping machines. Background Technology

[0002] The lens copper pillar crimping machine is a high-precision automated device specifically designed for camera module assembly. It uses precise pressure to firmly crimp the copper pillars to the circuit board, ensuring optical center stability and reliable electrical connections, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality.

[0003] The waste generated by the lens copper pillar crimping machine mainly comes from the deformation of the copper pillar and plastic debris caused by size or position deviations during the crimping process, as well as occasional damage to the PCB board solder pads.

[0004] Currently, existing lens copper pillar crimping machines generate copper powder and granules as waste during the crimping process. These fine waste particles adhere to the lens or other precision components, potentially causing defects or even damage, rendering the parts unusable. Furthermore, the metal dust can negatively impact worker health, reducing the equipment's practicality. When the waste collection device is full, the current equipment typically needs to stop crimping, replace it, and continue. Frequent start-ups and shutdowns can affect production efficiency and further reduce the equipment's usability. Therefore, a waste collection device for lens copper pillar crimping machines is urgently needed to address these issues. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a waste collection device for a lens copper column crimping machine to solve the problems existing in the background art.

[0006] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a waste collection device for a lens copper pillar crimping machine, comprising:

[0007] The mounting box contains an air pump, and an adjustment tube is fixedly connected to the outer surface of one side of the mounting box. A suction head is connected to the outer surface of the adjustment tube. Mounting structures are provided on the outer surfaces of both ends of the mounting box, and an exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the other side of the mounting box. A collection structure is provided inside the exhaust pipe. The mounting structure includes mounting straps, positioning grooves, mounting blocks, moving grooves, operating grooves, locking plates, pull rods, and springs. Two sets of mounting straps are provided, and the two sets of mounting straps are fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of certain two sides of the mounting box. The collection structure includes an exhaust port, a control tube, a control block, a turntable, and a collection tank. The exhaust port is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the lower end of the exhaust pipe.

[0008] Preferably, the adjusting tube is made of a stretchable corrugated tube, and the suction head is conical. This design allows for adjustment of the position and direction of the suction head by utilizing the stretchability of the adjusting tube material, making the suction head more flexible.

[0009] Preferably, the positioning groove is provided in multiple sets, and the multiple sets of positioning grooves are respectively opened on the outer surface of one end of the two sets of mounting strips. The outer surfaces of both sides of the other end of the mounting box are fixedly connected to mounting blocks, and the inner surface of one end of the outer surface of the two sets of mounting blocks is provided with a moving groove, and the inner surface of the other end of the two sets of mounting blocks is provided with an operating groove. The inner surface of the two sets of operating grooves is fitted with a locking plate. The outer surface of the locking plate is fixedly connected with a pull rod, and the outer surface of the pull rod is fitted with a spring. This design can bind and connect the mounting box and the crimping machine through the mounting strips.

[0010] Preferably, the positions of the two sets of mounting strips correspond to the positions of the two sets of moving slots, and the external dimensions of the mounting strips are adapted to the internal dimensions of the moving slots. This design allows the mounting strips to be inserted into the moving slots and to be more stable inside the moving slots.

[0011] Preferably, the positioning groove has multiple sets of wedge grooves inside, and the outer surface of the inner end of the locking plate has multiple sets of wedge blocks. The internal dimensions of the wedge grooves are adapted to the external dimensions of the wedge blocks. This design allows the locking plate to engage inside the positioning groove, and the locking plate can be more stable when engaged.

[0012] Preferably, the two ends of the spring are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the outer end of the locking plate and the inner wall surface of the operating groove, respectively. This design can support the locking plate through the elasticity of the spring itself, so that the locking plate can automatically move towards the positioning groove and automatically lock into the inside of the positioning groove.

[0013] Preferably, the control tube is fixedly connected to the inside of the exhaust pipe, and a control block is engaged inside the control tube. A turntable is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the upper end of the control block, and a collection tank is threadedly connected to the lower outer surface of the exhaust pipe on the outer side. This design allows for the collection of waste materials through the collection tank.

[0014] Preferably, the outer surface of the lower end of the exhaust port is provided with a filter screen, the control tube is a spherical groove, the control block is a spherical block, and the internal dimensions of the spherical groove are adapted to the external dimensions of the spherical block. Furthermore, a connecting groove is provided inside the control block, and the internal dimensions of the connecting groove are adapted to the internal dimensions of the exhaust pipe. This design allows the internal connection of the exhaust pipe to be opened and closed by rotating the control block.

[0015] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: By folding the mounting strap, the mounting strap is made to fit tightly against the outer surface of the crimping machine. At the same time, the mounting strap is inserted into the inside of the moving groove. Pulling the mounting strap upward causes the positioning groove to move on the outer surface of the locking plate. The elasticity of the spring itself can support the locking plate, allowing the locking plate to move automatically towards the mounting strap. This allows the wedge-shaped block of the locking plate to automatically engage with the inside of the wedge-shaped groove of the positioning groove. Through the mutual engagement between the wedge-shaped groove of the positioning groove and the wedge-shaped block of the locking plate, the positioning groove will not move downward automatically when pulled upward. Thus, by tightening the mounting strap, the mounting box can be quickly positioned on the outer surface of the crimping machine at a suitable position. The air pump can then be started, and the waste generated during the crimping process can be collected through the suction head, avoiding the adverse consequences caused by the accumulation of metal powder and improving the practicality of the equipment to a certain extent.

[0016] Waste can be collected through the collection tank. When the collection tank is full, the turntable can be rotated, which will cause the control block to rotate inside the control tube. This will prevent the connecting groove inside the control block from communicating with the inside of the exhaust pipe, thus closing the inside of the exhaust pipe. The collection tank can then be rotated and disassembled. This allows the collection tank to be replaced directly without stopping the pressing process, ensuring the efficiency of the pressing operation and improving the practicality of the equipment to a certain extent. Moreover, its overall structure is simple and reasonable in design, highly practical, and easy to promote and apply. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the forms of the various structures described in the following embodiments are merely illustrative. The lens copper column crimping machine involved in this utility model is not limited to the structures described in the following embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0023] Example 1, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment proposes a waste collection device for a lens copper pillar crimping machine, comprising:

[0024] The mounting box 1 contains an air pump 2, and an adjusting pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of one side of the mounting box 1. The outer surface of the adjusting pipe 3 is connected to a suction head 4. Mounting structures 5 are provided on the outer surfaces of both ends of the mounting box 1, and an exhaust pipe 6 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the other side of the mounting box 1. A collection structure 7 is provided inside the exhaust pipe 6. The adjusting pipe 3 is made of a stretchable corrugated pipe, and the suction head 4 is conical. This design allows for adjustment of the position and direction of the suction head 4 through the stretchability of the adjusting pipe 3, making the use of the suction head 4 more flexible. At the same time, the conical design of the suction head 4 improves the efficiency of waste absorption.

[0025] The mounting structure 5 includes a mounting strip 51, a positioning groove 52, a mounting block 53, a moving groove 54, an operating groove 55, a locking plate 56, a pull rod 57, and a spring 58. There are two sets of mounting strips 51, and the two sets of mounting strips 51 are fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of certain two sides of the mounting box 1. There are multiple sets of positioning grooves 52, and the multiple sets of positioning grooves 52 are respectively opened on the outer surface of one end of the two sets of mounting strips 51. The outer surfaces of both sides of the other end of the mounting box 1 are fixedly connected to the mounting blocks 53, and the inner surface of the outer surface of one end of the two sets of mounting blocks 53 is provided with a moving groove 54. The positions of the two sets of mounting strips 51 correspond to the positions of the two sets of moving grooves 54, and the external dimensions of the mounting strips 51 are adapted to the internal dimensions of the moving grooves 54. This design allows the mounting strips 51 to be inserted into the inside of the moving grooves 54, and the mounting strips 51 are more stable inside the moving grooves 54.

[0026] Furthermore, each of the two sets of mounting blocks 53 has an operating groove 55 inside its other end, and each of the two sets of operating grooves 55 has a locking plate 56 inside. The positioning groove 52 has multiple sets of wedge grooves inside, and the outer surface of the inner end of the locking plate 56 has multiple sets of wedge blocks. The internal dimensions of the wedge grooves are adapted to the external dimensions of the wedge blocks. This design allows the position of the locking plate 56 to correspond to the position of the positioning groove 52 when the mounting belt 51 is inside the moving groove 54. The locking plate 56 can be locked inside the positioning groove 52, and the locking plate 56 can be more stable when locked inside the positioning groove 52. At the same time, the support of the outer surface of the wedge block to the inner wall surface of the wedge groove prevents the mounting belt 51 inside the moving groove 54 from moving downward automatically.

[0027] A pull rod 57 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the outer end of the locking plate 56, and a spring 58 is sleeved on the outer surface of the pull rod 57. The two ends of the spring 58 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the outer end of the locking plate 56 and the inner wall surface of the operating groove 55, respectively. This design supports the locking plate 56 through the elasticity of the spring 58 itself, which can drive the locking plate 56 to move automatically in the direction of the mounting belt 51, so that the locking plate 56 can automatically lock into the inside of the positioning groove 52.

[0028] Example 2, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, based on the same concept as the above embodiments, this embodiment also proposes:

[0029] The collection structure 7 includes an exhaust port 71, a control pipe 72, a control block 73, a turntable 74, and a collection tank 75. The exhaust port 71 is threaded to the outer surface of the lower end of the exhaust pipe 6. The control pipe 72 is fixedly connected to the inside of the exhaust pipe 6, and the control block 73 is engaged inside the control pipe 72. The turntable 74 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the upper end of the control block 73. The collection tank 75 is threaded to the outer surface of the lower end of the outer side of the exhaust pipe 6. A filter screen is provided on the outer surface of the lower end of the exhaust port 71. The control pipe 72 is a spherical groove, and the control block 73 is a spherical block. The internal dimensions of the spherical groove are adapted to the external dimensions of the spherical block. A connecting groove is provided inside the control block 73, and the internal dimensions of the connecting groove are adapted to the internal dimensions of the exhaust pipe 6.

[0030] In this embodiment, the design allows air to be discharged from inside the exhaust pipe 6 through the exhaust port 71, while also filtering waste to prevent it from being discharged through the exhaust port 71. The waste is collected by the collection tank 75. Rotating the turntable 74 causes the control block 73 to rotate inside the control tube 72, and the rotation of the control block 73 is more stable. The rotation of the control block 73 controls the connection between the connecting groove and the inside of the exhaust pipe 6.

[0031] The air pump 2 in this application is a common electromechanical device, and it is a product that can be purchased directly on the market. Its principle, connection method and control method are all existing technologies known to those skilled in the art, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0032] The mounting band 51, the locking plate 56, and the control block 73 in this application, as well as all movable parts, require regular cleaning and maintenance, including but not limited to dust removal and lubrication.

[0033] Working principle: When using the equipment, first, attach the mounting box 1 to the outer surface of the crimping machine to be used. Then, pull the mounting strap 51 to attach to and surround the outer surface of the crimping machine, insert the mounting strap 51 into the moving groove 54, and pull the mounting strap 51 upward, causing it to move upward inside the moving groove 54 and tighten on the outer surface of the crimping machine. Through the elasticity of the spring 58, the locking plate 56 can automatically move towards the mounting strap 51, causing the wedge block to automatically engage inside the wedge groove. Continuously pulling the mounting strap 51 until it presses firmly against the outer surface of the crimping machine allows for rapid crimping of the mounting box 1. After installation, adjust the regulating pipe 3 so that the direction and position of the suction head 4 are as close as possible to the location where waste is generated. Then start the air pump 2 to collect the waste. After the waste inside the collection tank 75 is full, rotate the turntable 74 to drive the control block 73 to rotate inside the control pipe 72, so that the connecting groove and the inside of the exhaust pipe 6 are misaligned, thus closing the inside of the exhaust pipe 6. At this time, the collection tank 75 can be rotated to disassemble and replace it. Then rotate the turntable 74 in the opposite direction to reconnect the connecting groove and the inside of the exhaust pipe 6. Thus, the collection tank 75 can be replaced without affecting the collection of waste. The above is the complete working principle of this utility model.

[0034] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections. "Up", "down", "left", "right", etc. are only used to indicate relative positional relationships. When the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may change.

[0035] Secondly: The accompanying drawings of the embodiments disclosed in this utility model only involve the structures involved in the embodiments disclosed in this utility model. Other structures can refer to the general design. In the absence of conflict, the same embodiment and different embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0036] In conclusion, the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
