Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveyor belts, and in particular to a double needle wheel conveyor belt device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of semiconductor packaging and testing, carrier tape delivery systems are core equipment for achieving precise chip transfer, packaging, and testing. As semiconductor technology develops towards higher integration and smaller size, the requirements for the accuracy, stability, and adaptability of carrier tape delivery in chip packaging are becoming increasingly stringent. The performance of this device directly affects chip packaging yield and production efficiency, and its optimization and upgrading are of great significance to the development of the semiconductor manufacturing industry.

[0003] In existing technologies, carrier tape conveying mostly adopts a single-pin wheel drive method, where a single servo motor and reducer drive the pin wheel to rotate, and intermittent transmission is achieved by the pin wheel teeth engaging with the carrier tape positioning holes. The carrier tape sequentially goes through processes such as chip placement, cover tape bonding, and heat sealing, relying on the pin wheel's own braking or servo motor braking to maintain the stopped position, thus completing the chip tape packaging.

[0004] However, the single-pinwheel drive structure relies on a single braking method to maintain position during the stopping phase. The carrier belt is prone to inertial vibration or rebound due to its own elasticity and the gap of the feeding system, which leads to a decrease in chip positioning accuracy and cannot meet the requirements of high-precision packaging. In severe cases, it may also cause chip placement misalignment and packaging failure. Therefore, a dual-pinwheel carrier belt conveyor device is proposed to solve the above problems.

The adjusting bolt 316 passes through the adjusting top plate 315 and is threadedly connected to the adjusting side plate 313. The adjusting base 314 and the like can adjust the X-axis position of the rear needle wheel 37. An inductive proximity switch 317 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner needle wheel rail 39.

[0030] Working principle: The servo motor 12 is started, transmitting power to the reducer 14 via the synchronous belt assembly 15. After reduction, the reducer drives the taping needle wheel 17 to rotate. The adjusting block 16 on the motor connecting block 11 adjusts the tension of the synchronous belt assembly 15, ensuring smooth transmission. The linear slide rail 111 on the needle wheel fixing block 13 cooperates with the adjusting block 113 to move the needle wheel fixing block 112, achieving position adjustment of the taping needle wheel 17 in the X-axis direction. This ensures precise engagement with the carrier belt positioning hole. Driven by the taping needle wheel 17 and limited by the curved rail 24 connected to the right side of the track fixing plate 21 in the track assembly 2, the carrier belt smoothly enters the track assembly 2. After the carrier tape is mounted on the top of the track fixing plate 21, it is transported along the tape tray 22. The track cover plate 23 guides and protects the carrier tape. The chip pickup component 28 on the right side of the track cover plate 23 places the chip onto the tape tray 22 for transport. The cover tape component 27 releases the cover tape to cover the surface of the carrier tape. The heat sealing component 26 heat seals the cover tape and the carrier tape to achieve chip sealing and fixation. Finally, the chip positioning accuracy and carrier tape status are detected by the vision inspection component 25. At the same time, the servo motor 22 starts and transmits power to the reducer 25 through the synchronous belt component 26, driving the rear pin wheel 37 at the output end of the reducer 25 to rotate. The rear needle wheel 37 rotates synchronously with the front braiding needle wheel 17, forming a dual-drive coordinated drive. The needle wheel stop 38 restricts the rear needle wheel 37 between itself and the needle wheel motor mounting base 34 to prevent misalignment. The adjusting bolts 316 on the adjusting base 314, adjusting side plate 313, and adjusting top plate 315 can be used to adjust the X-axis position of the rear needle wheel 37. The motor mounting plate 31 can adjust the Z-axis position of the rear needle wheel 37 to ensure that the two needle wheels are horizontally aligned. At the same time, the inductive proximity switch 317 fixed at the bottom of the inner track 39 of the needle wheel monitors the height between the carrier tape cover plate 311 and the track in real time to avoid the carrier tape jamming or wear due to height deviation. The inner track 39 of the needle wheel is connected to the front. The heat-sealing lower track 310 cooperates with the heat-sealing component 26 of the track assembly 2 to ensure the stable operation of the heat-sealing process. The carrier tape cover plate 311 is connected to the inner track 39 of the pin wheel through the cover plate fixing seat 312 to further protect the carrier tape. The carrier tape continuously completes the transmission and packaging process under the coordinated drive of the dual pin wheels. The curved rail outer cover 18 of the front pin wheel assembly 1 can be quickly opened through the curved rail swing arm shaft 110, which makes it convenient for the staff to deal with the carrier tape feeding jam or deviation in time. The dual pin wheels disperse the stress at the meshing point of the carrier tape and reduce the wear of the carrier tape. The motor cover 33 on the back of the motor mounting plate 31 protects the servo motor 32, and finally realizes high-speed, accurate and stable tape packaging of the chip.

The power supply interface of the electrical equipment in this utility model is connected to the power supply system through a switch (not shown in the figure) and a wire (not shown in the figure) to realize its control. The circuits and controls involved are all prior art and are known in the current field, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
