Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging device technology, specifically a temperature-controlled packaging device for an optical module. Background Technology

[0002] An optical module is an assembly of optoelectronic devices, functional circuits, and optical interfaces. It converts electrical signals into optical signals through photoelectric conversion, and then converts the optical signals back into electrical signals after transmission through optical fiber. In the production of optical module housings, they are usually encapsulated using a housing, which is generally composed of two shells. During encapsulation, the upper and lower shells need to be vertically aligned, and the gaps between the upper and lower shells are sealed with sealant. However, alignment is usually done manually, with workers judging the alignment by direct observation. This can lead to misalignment and affect the encapsulation effect. Existing encapsulation devices generally rely on manual clamping by workers using grippers. This clamping process requires constant holding, and misalignment is easily caused after clamping, resulting in inaccuracies. Furthermore, when existing encapsulation devices use irregular shapes to enhance heat dissipation, the surface of the housing is not regular, which can cause the housing to tilt after clamping. This further leads to uneven force during encapsulation pressing, making it easy for internal circuits to deform and break due to tilted pressing. This is extremely inconvenient to use and prone to producing defective products. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a temperature control packaging device for optical modules, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the inconvenience of clamping the packaging shell and the easy tilting caused by external irregularities.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a temperature-controlled packaging device for an optical module, comprising a base, a guide rod fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the base, motors fixedly mounted on the side surfaces of the base respectively, the heights of the motors being staggered, a screw rotatably mounted inside the base, the thread directions of the two ends of the screw being opposite, a gripper slidably mounted inside the base, the gripper being threadedly connected to the screw and engaging with the base, and a limiting insertion rubber pad inserted into the outer surface of the base, the outer surface of the limiting insertion rubber pad engaging with the outer surface of the optical module housing, the limiting insertion rubber pad being located at the center of the base.

[0005] Preferably, the outer surface of the gripper is marked with numbers, and the numbers are all facing the working position. A special-shaped rubber clamping block is inserted and fixed at one end of the gripper near the limiting insertion rubber pad. The outer surface of the special-shaped rubber clamping block is tightly fitted with the outer surface of the housing, and the outer surface of the special-shaped rubber clamping block is fitted with the outer surface of the optical module housing.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the corresponding irregular rubber clips can be clearly identified by the marked numbers, which facilitates the quick and easy insertion of the corresponding irregular rubber clips. Different irregular rubber clips can be used to adapt to different optical module shells. The fit between the irregular rubber clips and the outer surface of the optical module shell allows the optical module shell to face the pressure block vertically, reducing the damage caused by packaging deformation due to tilting and other reasons, and improving the flexibility and yield rate during use.

[0007] Preferably, the gripper is Z-shaped, and the outer surface of the base near the limiting insertion rubber pad does not have a groove, and the motors are all far away from the work station of the packaging device.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the Z-shaped design of the gripper ensures that there is no groove at the position of the base near the limiting insertion rubber pad, reducing the wear of the screw caused by dust and impurities falling in. It can also further reduce the probability of components such as the encapsulated time module falling into the groove, making it easy to pick up the parts after they fall in, and improving the service life of the screw.

[0009] Preferably, a sliding seat is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the guide rod, and an electric push rod is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the sliding seat. The output end of the electric push rod passes through the outer surface of the sliding seat. A pressure block is fixedly mounted on the output end of the electric push rod, and a soft rubber pad is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the pressure block. The soft rubber pad and the limiting insertion rubber pad are concentrically designed.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the pressure block is moved by the electric push rod, so that the pressure block can carry the soft rubber pad and press it against the optical module shell. The optical module shell and the soft rubber pad make soft contact, which can greatly reduce the occurrence of damage and scratches to the optical module shell.

[0011] Preferably, a viewing window is inlaid on the outer surface of the sliding seat, and the viewing window is elongated.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of the viewing window can effectively improve the comfort of workers when packaging optical modules. Workers can directly look through the viewing window at an angle to check whether the orientation of the lower shell of the optical module and whether the limiting plug rubber pads are properly inserted, without having to bend over frequently to check, which greatly improves the convenience and comfort of the packaging operation.

[0013] Preferably, a barbed sleeve is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the guide rod, and the outer surface of the barbed sleeve is inserted into the sliding seat, and the sliding seat is engaged with one end of the barbed sleeve. A limit plate screw is threadedly mounted on the outer surface of the end of the guide rod away from the base.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the movement position of the sliding seat can be limited by the limit plate screw, so that the sliding seat will not slide out of the guide rod during adjustment. At the same time, when the barb sleeve is worn, it can be disassembled and replaced. When replacing, the barb sleeve can be directly inserted into the sliding seat and fixed by the barb without displacement, which greatly improves the convenience of maintenance and installation. Furthermore, by moving the sliding seat, the electric push rod can be pressed according to the optical module package of different lengths and sizes without being damaged or deformed due to excessive pressing force.

[0015] Preferably, a clamping block is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the barbed sleeve, and the clamping block engages with the sliding seat. Hand-tightening bolts are threaded on both sides of the sliding seat, and one end of the hand-tightening bolt is inserted into the outer surface of the clamping block, and the clamping block is in contact with the outer surface of the guide rod.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the notch in the clamping block makes it easier for the barbed sleeve to be inserted into the sliding seat. The insertion of the barbed sleeve into the outer surface of the hand-tightening bolt effectively positions the barbed sleeve. At the same time, tightening the hand-tightening bolt allows the clamping block to fit tightly against the outer surface of the guide rod, increasing the friction area and ensuring the stability of the sliding seat when the electric push rod presses the optical module. It also ensures the smoothness of the outer surface of the guide rod, improving the smoothness of the sliding seat movement. This makes the sliding seat more secure when fixed and smoother when moved, improving the convenience of use.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the temperature control packaging device for the optical module:

[0018] 1. Different models of optical modules can be installed by replacing the limiting plug rubber pads. By inserting the optical module into the limiting plug rubber pad, the orientation of the optical module can be effectively specified, allowing the optical module shell to stand upright without manual removal and waiting for the jaws to move. This ensures the consistency of the optical module shell's position on the base. During pressing, the limiting plug rubber pad can protect the bottom of the optical module shell, reducing the error after the optical module shell is clamped, and improving the convenience and accuracy of use.

[0019] 2. Simultaneously, according to the irregularly shaped rubber clamps inserted on the outer surface of the gripper, when the irregularly shaped rubber clamps move with the gripper and approach the optical module housing, the irregularly shaped rubber clamps can firmly clamp the optical module housing. With the use of the limiting insertion rubber pad, the optical module housing can be vertically facing the pressure block, so that when the soft rubber pad contacts the optical module housing, it can be pressed vertically, without causing damage or displacement of internal circuits and other components due to the tilting of the optical module housing. This greatly improves the yield rate and can stably clamp optical modules of different sizes and shapes.

[0020] 3. The opening of the viewing window allows for easy viewing of the interior of the optical module housing through the insertion limit rubber pad. The position of the sliding seat on the guide rod can be adjusted by tightening the hand-tightening bolts, ensuring that the clamping block is firmly attached to the outer surface of the guide rod. This improves the stability of the sliding seat during fixation and allows for adjustment of the distance between the pressure block, the soft rubber pad, and the optical module housing. This facilitates the pressing of optical modules of different heights without causing damage or deformation to the optical module housing due to excessive pressure. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-6This utility model provides a technical solution: a temperature control packaging device for an optical module, including a base 1. A guide rod 8 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the base 1. Motors 2 are fixedly installed on the side surfaces of the base 1, and the heights of the motors 2 are staggered. A screw 3 is rotatably installed inside the base 1, and the threads at both ends of the screw 3 are opposite. A gripper 4 is slidably installed inside the base 1, and the gripper 4 is threadedly connected to the screw 3 and engages with the base 1. The gripper 4 has a Z-shaped design, and the outer surface of the end of the base 1 near the limiting insertion rubber pad 7 does not have a groove. The outer surface of the claw 4 is marked with the number 5, and the number 5 is facing the working position. The end of the claw 4 that is close to the limiting insertion rubber pad 7 is inserted and fixed with a special-shaped rubber clamp 6. The outer surface of the special-shaped rubber clamp 6 is in close contact with the outer surface of the outer shell, and the outer surface of the special-shaped rubber clamp 6 is in contact with the outer surface of the optical module shell. The motors 2 are all away from the working position of the packaging device. The limiting insertion rubber pad 7 is inserted and installed on the outer surface of the base 1, and the outer surface of the limiting insertion rubber pad 7 is in contact with the outer surface of the optical module shell. The limiting insertion rubber pad 7 is located at the center of the base 1.

[0030] First, when using the device, simply take the optical module housing and insert it into the other side. Then, you can check the position of the limiting insertion rubber pad 7 and observe the orientation of the optical module housing through the viewing window 10. After that, insert the optical module housing into the limiting insertion rubber pad 7. Then, the rotation of the motor 2 drives the screw 3 to rotate, so that the gripper 4 connected to the screw 3 can move inside the base 1 and bring the special-shaped rubber clamp 6 to the optical module housing for clamping. With the use of the limiting insertion rubber pad 7, the optical module housing can be vertically oriented towards the soft rubber pad 13, ensuring that the optical module parts can be picked up even if they fall during placement. This reduces the time spent waiting for the gripper 4 to move after placing the optical module housing, improves the accuracy and verticality of the gripper 4, and reduces the deformation and damage to internal circuit components caused by the tilt of the optical module housing during pressing. This greatly improves the yield rate of the packaging device and the convenience of use.

[0031] A sliding seat 9 is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the guide rod 8, and an electric push rod 11 is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the sliding seat 9. The output end of the electric push rod 11 passes through the outer surface of the sliding seat 9. A viewing window 10 is embedded in the outer surface of the sliding seat 9, and the viewing window 10 is elongated. A pressure block 12 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the electric push rod 11, and a soft rubber pad 13 is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the pressure block 12. The soft rubber pad 13 and the limiting insertion rubber pad 7 are concentrically designed.

[0032] Secondly, when different models of optical modules need to be packaged, it is only necessary to replace the corresponding irregular rubber clamp 6 and the limiting plug rubber pad 7, and check the marking number 5 on the outer surface of the clamp 4, and insert the corresponding irregular rubber clamp 6 into the inside of the clamp 4. The replacement of the irregular rubber clamp 6 and the limiting plug rubber pad 7 can be completed quickly. After the optical module shell is clamped and fixed, the electric push rod 11 can be activated to push out the pressure block 12, so that the soft rubber pad 13 can approach and contact the optical module shell. With the use of the limiting plug rubber pad 7, the two ends of the optical module shell will not be worn or damaged due to scratches or other reasons, which further improves the practicality of the packaging device.

[0033] A barb sleeve 14 is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the guide rod 8, and the outer surface of the barb sleeve 14 is inserted into the sliding seat 9. The sliding seat 9 is engaged with one end of the barb sleeve 14. A limit plate screw 17 is threadedly mounted on the outer surface of the end of the guide rod 8 away from the base 1. A clamping block 15 is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the barb sleeve 14, and the clamping block 15 is engaged with the sliding seat 9. Hand-tightening bolts 16 are threadedly mounted on both sides of the sliding seat 9, and one end of the hand-tightening bolt 16 is inserted into the outer surface of the clamping block 15, and the clamping block 15 is in contact with the outer surface of the guide rod 8.

[0034] Furthermore, when pressing and encapsulating different models of optical module housings, it is necessary to first adjust the position of the sliding seat 9 on the guide rod 8. By loosening the hand-tightening bolt 16, the clamping block 15 is disengaged from the guide rod 8, and then the sliding seat 9 can be moved freely. The sliding seat 9 can be limited by the limiting plate screw 17. After the sliding seat 9 moves to the corresponding position, the position of the sliding seat 9 can be fixed by tightening the hand-tightening bolt 16 again. This allows the distance between the soft rubber pad 13 and the optical module housing to be flexibly adjusted, so that different models of optical module housings can be pressed without deformation due to excessive pressing force. This further improves the flexibility and convenience of the encapsulation device.

[0035] Working principle: Before encapsulating the optical module, select the corresponding model of irregularly shaped rubber clamp 6 and limiting insertion rubber pad 7, and insert the limiting insertion rubber pad 7 into the outer surface of the base 1. Then, according to the marked number 5, insert the irregularly shaped rubber clamp 6 into the outer surface of the clamp 4 one by one. Then, adjust the position of the sliding seat 9 on the guide rod 8 according to the length of the optical module shell. After moving into place, tighten the hand-tightened bolt 16 to make the clamping block 15 fit tightly against the outer surface of the guide rod 8. With the use of the barbed sleeve 14, the sliding seat 9 can be firmly fixed on the guide rod 8. The optical module housing is pre-assembled and inserted into the limiting rubber pad 7 through the viewing window 10. Then, the screw 3 is driven by the motor 2, which moves the gripper 4 and carries the irregularly shaped rubber clamp 6 to clamp the optical module housing, so that the optical module can be vertically facing the pressure block 12. Then, the electric push rod 11 is activated to push out the pressure block 12 and the soft rubber pad 13 together, so that the electric push rod 11 can press the vertical optical module with appropriate force, which greatly improves the accuracy and convenience of optical module packaging and reduces defective products caused by damage and deformation of optical modules.

[0036] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
