However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0032] In the description of this application, it should be understood that if terms such as "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" appear, these terms indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0033] Furthermore, where the term "and / or" appears, "and / or" merely describes the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, or B existing alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this document generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship. Where the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features defined with "first" or "second" can explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. In the description of this application, where the term "multiple" appears, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0037] See Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a quick-release component 100, which can be used for the quick assembly and disassembly of the fixture 130, thereby improving production and testing efficiency.

[0038] Continue reading Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the quick-release assembly 100 includes a base 110, a plurality of steel balls 120, and a fixture 130. The base 110 has a receiving cavity 111 inside. Each steel ball 120 is disposed at one end of the base 110, and the steel balls 120 are distributed circumferentially along the central axis of the base 110. One end of the fixture 130 has a groove 131, which engages with each steel ball 120. The fixture 130 can be controlled to extend and retract along the axial direction of the base 110, so that the steel balls 120 are inserted into or disengaged from the groove 131.

[0039] For example, the base 110 has a cylindrical structure, and the steel balls 120 are distributed circumferentially along the central axis of the base 110. When connecting the jig 130 to the base 110, the jig 130 extends into the receiving cavity 111 of the base 110. When the steel balls 120 are embedded in the groove 131 of the jig 130, the jig 130 is fixed to the base 110, thereby achieving quick installation of the jig 130. When the jig 130 needs to be replaced, simply pull the jig 130 away from the base 110. Under the pressure of the wall of the groove 131, the steel balls 120 move outward in the radial direction of the base 110, thereby disengaging from the groove 131. The jig 130 can then be pulled out of the base 110, achieving quick disassembly of the jig 130.

[0040] See Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the groove 131 is arranged in a ring along the axis of the fixture 130.

[0041] For example, the groove 131 has an annular structure, and each steel ball 120 is arranged on the same plane, so that when the fixture 130 is inserted into the base 110, each steel ball 120 can be embedded in the groove 131. The fixture 130 can also rotate arbitrarily along the central axis, making the assembly of the fixture 130 and the base 110 more convenient.

[0042] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the quick-release assembly 100 further includes an elastic sleeve 140, which is sleeved on one end of the base 110 where the steel ball 120 is located, and the steel ball 120 is enclosed in the elastic sleeve 140.

[0043] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, exemplarily, the elastic sleeve 140 can be a rubber sleeve, capable of stretching under external force and returning to its original position based on its own elastic properties. The elastic sleeve 140 covers the outer side of the steel ball 120, thereby applying pressure to the steel ball 120 in the radial direction of the base 110. When the fixture 130 is inserted into the base 110, the steel ball 120 first moves outward under the pressure of the wall surface of the fixture 130, thereby pressing the elastic sleeve 140, allowing the fixture 130 to continue moving inward into the base 110. When it continues to move until the groove 131 of the fixture 130 and the steel ball 120 are on the same plane, the steel ball 120 can elastically return to its original position under the action of the elastic sleeve 140, thereby embedding the steel ball 120 into the groove 131, locking the fixture 130 and the base 110.

[0044] When it is necessary to separate the jig 130 from the base 110, simply pull the jig 130 outwards. The wall of the jig 130 will then press the steel ball 120 outwards again, causing the steel ball 120 to disengage from the groove 131. In this way, the jig 130 can be pulled away from the base 110.

[0045] See Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the base 110 has multiple mounting slots 112, and each steel ball 120 is installed in a corresponding mounting slot 112.

[0046] For example, the mounting groove 112 is a circular hole, and a steel ball 120 is provided in each groove. The mounting grooves 112 are circumferentially distributed along the axis of the base 110, so that the steel ball 120 can move along the axial direction of the mounting groove 112 under the action of the jig 130 and the elastic sleeve 140.

[0047] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the mounting groove 112 is smaller than the outer diameter of the steel ball 120, and the steel ball 120 is located on the side of the mounting groove 112 closer to the elastic sleeve 140. Thus, when the steel ball 120 is placed in the mounting groove 112, it will not fall from the mounting groove 112 into the receiving cavity 111 of the base 110, and is thus confined between the elastic sleeve 140 and the base 110 by the elastic sleeve 140. Moreover, the steel ball 120 has a spherical structure, which, while preventing it from falling out of the mounting groove 112, allows part of its surface to pass through the mounting groove 112, thereby entering the receiving cavity 111 and engaging with the groove 131 of the fixture 130.

[0048] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the quick-release assembly 100 further includes a limiting seat 150, and the fixture 130 is inserted and engaged with the base 110 after passing through the limiting seat 150.

[0049] For example, the middle of the limiting seat 150 is provided with a channel for the jig 130 to pass through. Through the setting of the limiting seat 150, the jig 130 moves along the axial direction within the limiting seat 150, thereby guiding the jig 130 during the insertion process and ensuring the accurate docking of the jig 130.

[0050] Furthermore, the bearing of the limiting seat 150 is provided with a flange surface that protrudes from the surface of the limiting seat 150. When the jig 130 is pulled out of the base 110, the flange surface can be hooked with a finger, which facilitates the operator's application of force.

[0051] In some embodiments, the quick-release assembly 100 further includes an elastic element 160, and the end of the fixture 130 away from the base 110 is provided with an abutment portion 132. The two ends of the elastic element 160 are respectively connected to the abutment portion 132 and the limiting seat 150.

[0052] For example, the elastic element 160 is a helical spring, which is sleeved on the outside of the fixture 130. The outer diameter of the abutment portion 132 is larger than the outer diameter of the spring, thereby confining the spring between the abutment portion 132 and the limiting seat 150. In this way, after the fixture 130 is inserted into the base 110, an elastic force can be applied to the fixture 130, giving the fixture 130 the potential energy to move away from the base 110. This provides elastic buffering when the fixture 130 picks up the workpiece, avoiding rigid contact.

[0053] See Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the fixture 130 is provided with a limiting pin 133, which is distributed along the radial direction of the fixture 130, and the limiting pin 133 is located at the end of the limiting seat 150 away from the abutment portion 132.

[0054] For example, the limiting pin 133 protrudes from the surface of the fixture 130, and the base 110 is provided with a limiting groove 113 corresponding to the end near the fixture 130. Thus, when the fixture 130 and the base 110 are assembled, the operator presses the fixture 130 into the base 110, and when the limiting pin 133 abuts against the limiting groove 113, the fixture 130 reaches the docking position, and the steel ball 120 is inserted into the groove 131 of the fixture 130, ensuring the docking accuracy between the fixture 130 and the base 110.

[0055] Continue reading Figure 6 As shown, embodiments of this application also provide a conveying device 1000, including a quick-release component 100, a conveying component 200 and a bracket 300 as described in any of the above embodiments. The quick-release component 100 is mounted on the bracket 300, and the bracket 300 is connected to the conveying component 200.

[0056] For example, the conveying assembly 200 is equipped with two supports 300, and each support 300 is equipped with a carrier 400. The carrier 400 can rotate on the support 300 under the drive of a motor, and each carrier 400 is equipped with the same number of quick-release components 100 to be able to simultaneously pick up multiple workpieces.

[0057] The end of the quick-release assembly 100 away from the carrier 400 is an adsorption surface for adsorbing the workpiece. Thus, by rotating the two carriers 400, the adsorption surfaces of the two carriers 400 can face each other, and both adsorption surfaces of the two carriers 400 can pick up the workpiece, so as to facilitate the transfer of the workpiece between the two carriers 400.

[0058] This embodiment includes the quick-release component 100 of any of the above embodiments, and therefore has all the beneficial effects of the quick-release component 100 of any of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0059] Embodiments of this application also provide a testing device, including the quick-release assembly 100 or the conveying device 1000 in any of the above embodiments.

[0060] For example, the inspection equipment also includes an inspection device for inspecting the exposed surface of the workpiece. Understandably, the inspection device is positioned above the conveyor 200 to transport the workpiece below it for inspection. Since the bottom side of the workpiece is obscured when it is being held in place, it cannot be detected. Therefore, the workpiece can be flipped over by transferring it between the two carriers 400, allowing both sides of the workpiece to be detected.

[0061] This embodiment includes the quick-release component 100 of any of the above embodiments, and therefore has all the beneficial effects of the quick-release component 100 of any of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0062] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0063] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
