Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of SMT tape storage and retrieval technology, and in particular to an automatic SMT tape storage and retrieval device. Background Technology

[0002] SMT tape is an essential component for assembling compressed microelectronic components. It requires no auxiliary tools, saving time and effort, and is easy to operate. When not in use, SMT tape is typically rolled into a roll and placed on a reel. Workers position the reel according to its designated location and manually record the position. When the SMT tape is needed, they locate the corresponding reel based on the recorded position and retrieve the tape for use.

[0003] However, the traditional method involves manual placement and recording, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inconvenient to access. If the paper records are lost or the manual recording is incorrect, a lot of time needs to be spent to find the correct location of the material tape, which greatly affects the production efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to research an automatic SMT tape storage and retrieval device that can improve storage and retrieval efficiency and save time and effort. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the defects of the existing technology and provide an automatic SMT tape storage and retrieval device.

[0006] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] An automatic SMT tape storage and retrieval device includes a storage cabinet; a support column is provided inside the storage cabinet; multiple tray structures are rotatably mounted on the support column, each tray structure holding multiple trolleys wound with SMT tape; each trolley is provided with a barcode for displaying trolley information; each tray structure is connected to a stepper motor for controlling its rotation; a display is provided on the storage cabinet, and a barcode scanner is inserted directly below the display; a control box is provided at the bottom of the storage cabinet; the control box is connected to both the stepper motor and the display; the barcode scanner is wirelessly connected to the control box via a Bluetooth module.

[0008] Furthermore, the pallet structure includes a base, a fixed plate, and a positioning plate arranged sequentially from bottom to top; the fixed plate and the positioning plate are each provided with 29 corresponding storage positions and one standby position; a material tray is placed in each of the storage positions; and an origin sensor is provided on the base.

[0009] Furthermore, the pallet structure is provided with a balancing column for balancing.

[0010] Furthermore, a front protective plate is provided on the front side of the storage cabinet; and a material retrieval port for retrieving the material tray is provided on the front protective plate at each layer of the tray structure.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the storage cabinet is also equipped with casters for movement.

[0012] Furthermore, metal protective plates are installed on both sides of the storage cabinet.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0014] This invention uses a barcode scanner to scan the barcode on the material tray, storing the SMT tape information in the controller. The material tray is then placed in the corresponding storage location. When the material needs to be retrieved, simply scan the barcode on the used, identical material tray with the barcode scanner, and the controller will retrieve the corresponding material tray to the retrieval port. The staff can then retrieve the material tray in time, saving time and effort, and greatly improving the storage and retrieval efficiency of SMT tape. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0030] 1. Storing SMT tape: First, select the storage mode on the display 6.

Then, remove the barcode scanner 7 to scan the barcode 19 on the tray 4. The barcode scanner 7 will transmit the corresponding data to the control box 8 and display the storage quantity of the corresponding layer of tray structure 3 on the display 6. Finally, the operator will place the tray 4 with SMT tape into the corresponding empty storage position 12. After placement, the control box 8 will control the stepper motor 5 to drive the tray structure 3 to automatically return to the standby position 13 and enter the standby state.

[0031] 2. Obtaining SMT tape: First, select the acquisition mode on the display 6. Then, remove the barcode scanner 7 and scan the barcode 19 on the old tray 4 after the SMT tape has been used. The barcode scanner 7 transmits the corresponding data to the control box 8. The control box 8 controls the stepper motor 5 of the corresponding layer to drive the tray structure 3 to rotate, rotating the tray 4 to the picking port 17. The display 6 shows which layer the tray 4 to be acquired is located on. Finally, the operator takes out the tray 4 with the SMT tape within 20 seconds. After taking it out, the control box 8 will control the stepper motor 5 to drive the tray structure 3 to automatically return to the standby position 13 and enter the standby state.

[0032] The preferred embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make numerous modifications and variations based on the concept of this utility model without creative effort.
