[0027] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments of this utility model, and not the only embodiments.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the multi-nozzle vacuum pick-and-place module includes a substrate 1, several nozzle pick-and-place modules 2, and a vertical motion drive mechanism 4 that drives each nozzle pick-and-place module 2 to move up and down along the substrate 1. Each nozzle pick-and-place module 2 is slidably connected to the substrate 1 through an independent connecting component 3. The connecting component 3 includes a guide rail 300, a slider 301, and a vertical plate 302. The guide rail 300 is installed on the side of the substrate 1 facing the nozzle pick-and-place module 2. The vertical plate 302 is fixedly connected to the nozzle pick-and-place module 2. The slider 301 is fixedly installed on the side of the vertical plate 302 facing the guide rail 300. The slider 301 slides up and down along the guide rail 300 under the drive of the vertical motion drive mechanism 4, so as to drive the nozzle pick-and-place module 2 to move up and down along the substrate 1. The vertical motion drive mechanism 4 is activated, and the vertical motion drive mechanism 4 drives the corresponding nozzle pick-and-place module 2 to move up and down along the substrate 1, so that the corresponding nozzle pick-and-place module 2 can pick up and place materials.

[0029] It should be noted that in this utility model, each suction nozzle material handling module is independently equipped with a vertical motion drive mechanism 4 and a connecting component 3, so that each suction nozzle material handling module 2 can independently complete the adsorption and handling of materials. When multiple materials need to be adsorbed and handled simultaneously, multiple vertical motion drive mechanisms 4 are activated at the same time to enable the corresponding suction nozzle material handling module 2 to perform the material adsorption and handling action. When it is necessary to specify one or any two, three or more suction nozzle material handling modules 2 to adsorb and handle materials, the corresponding one or any two, three or more vertical motion drive mechanisms 4 are activated to enable the corresponding one or any two, three or more suction nozzle material handling modules 2 to perform the material adsorption and handling action.

[0030] A groove 303 is provided on the vertical side of the upright plate 302 facing the guide rail 300. The slider 301 is fixedly installed in the groove 303, which allows the slider 301 to be stably installed on the upright plate 302, so that the slider 301 can drive the suction nozzle picking and dispensing module 2 to move up and down along the substrate 1.

[0031] The vertical motion drive mechanism 4 includes a drive motor 400, a drive pulley 401, a driven pulley 402, a timing belt 403, a gear block 404, and a lifting column 406. The drive motor 400 is mounted on the bottom of the base plate 1. The drive pulley 401 is mounted on the output shaft of the drive motor 400. The driven pulley 402 is mounted on the base plate 1. The timing belt 403 is wound around the drive pulley 401 and the driven pulley 402 to form a transmission assembly. The gear block 404 is fixedly mounted inside the base plate 1. The rack 405 of the gear block 404 clamps one side of the timing belt 403 and moves up and down along the timing belt 403. The gear block 404 and the lifting column... One end of 406 is fixedly connected, and the other end of the lifting column 406 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the upright plate 302. When the drive motor 400 is started, the transmission group moves up and down, and drives the toothed block 404 to move up and down along the direction of the synchronous belt 403. This drives the lifting column 406 connected to the toothed block 404 to move up and down together, which in turn drives the upright plate 302 connected to the lifting column 406 to move up and down. This drives the slider 301 on the upright plate 302 to move up and down along the guide rail 300 on the base plate 1, and finally drives the suction nozzle picking and unloading module 2 fixedly connected to the upright plate 302 to move up and down.

[0032] A slot 100 is provided on the substrate 1 on one side of the synchronous belt 403. The tooth block 404 slides up and down relative to each other in the slot 100. This prevents the tooth block 404 from occupying the space on the surface of the substrate 1 and does not affect the transmission of the synchronous belt 403. It is beneficial for the synchronous belt 403 to drive the tooth block 404 to move up and down when it is in transmission.

[0033] A sensor 5 for sensing the position of the toothed block 404 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the empty slot 100. When the toothed block 404 moves downward with the synchronous belt 403 to the position sensed by the sensor 5, the synchronous belt 403 stops moving downward, the toothed block 404 also stops moving downward with the synchronous belt 403, and then the suction nozzle picking and discharging module 2 stops moving downward.

[0034] A micro switch 6 is mounted on the substrate 1. The micro switch 6 is located above the sensor 5. When the toothed block 404 moves to the position of the sensor 5 along with the synchronous belt 403, the micro switch 6 is activated, driving the motor 400 to flip, so that the direction of the synchronous belt 403 changes from downward movement to upward movement, thereby causing the toothed block 404 to move upward along with the synchronous belt 403, and then the suction nozzle picking and dispensing module 2 moves upward.

[0035] The suction nozzle loading and unloading module 2 includes a suction nozzle sleeve 200, a vacuum suction nozzle 201, and an adsorption cylinder 202. The suction nozzle sleeve 200 is fixedly connected to the upright plate 302. The body of the vacuum suction nozzle 201 is installed inside the suction nozzle sleeve 200, and the adsorption cylinder 202 is installed at the bottom of the body of the vacuum suction nozzle 201.

[0036] The nozzle sleeve 200 has a closable opening structure. The vacuum nozzle 201 body is installed inside the nozzle sleeve 200 and the opening of the nozzle sleeve 200 is closed by screws, thereby realizing the detachable connection between the vacuum nozzle 201 and the nozzle sleeve 200.

[0037] A protective shell 7 is installed on the bottom of the side of the substrate 1 facing the suction nozzle loading and unloading module 2. The protective shell 7 can protect the substrate 1 and prevent the suction nozzle loading and unloading module 2 from damaging the substrate 1 during operation.

[0038] The working steps of the multi-nozzle vacuum loading and unloading module in this embodiment are as follows:

[0039] S1. Start the drive motor 400, the transmission group drives the gear block 404 to move downward with the synchronous belt 403 on the same side, which drives the lifting column 406 fixedly connected to the gear block 404 to move downward, which drives the vertical plate 302 fixedly connected to the lifting column 406 to move downward, the slider 301 of the vertical plate 302 slides downward along the guide rail 300, and the suction nozzle picking and discharging module 2 moves downward.

[0040] S2, the toothed block 404 moves downwards following the synchronous belt 403 on the same side until it reaches the position sensed by the sensor 5, and then stops moving downwards. The vacuum nozzle 201 of the suction nozzle take-up and feeding module 2 adsorbs the material.

[0041] S3, micro switch 6 is activated, drive motor 400 flips, transmission group transmission direction is opposite to that in S1, tooth block 404 moves upward with synchronous belt 403 on the same side, driving lifting column 406 fixedly connected to tooth block 404 to move upward, driving vertical plate 302 fixedly connected to lifting column 406 to move upward, slider 301 of vertical plate 302 moves upward along guide rail 300 and slides, suction nozzle picking and dispensing module 2 with adsorbed material moves upward, suction nozzle picking and dispensing module 2 transfers adsorbed material to other process positions.

[0042] S4. Repeat steps S1-S3 to perform the adsorption operation for the next material.

[0043] It should be noted that in the above working steps, one of the suction nozzles 2 can be activated to adsorb materials, or multiple suction nozzles 2 can be activated simultaneously to adsorb materials. The specific choice of activating one or multiple suction nozzles 2 to adsorb materials depends on the actual working needs.

[0044] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
