[0002] In the automated production process of electronic products, many small components need to be installed or soldered inside the electronic products. When soldering copper sheets, the copper sheets are supplied in bulk. When employees spot weld the copper sheets, they need to use tweezers to pick up the copper sheets, turn them 180 degrees and place them on the spot welding position of the mobile phone shell. Because the copper sheets are small and have no positioning, the copper sheets are prone to misalignment, which leads to poor copper sheet soldering. Utility Model Content

[0022] The following is for reference. Figures 1 to 6 A copper sheet flipping and positioning device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0023] refer to Figures 1 to 3A copper sheet flipping and positioning device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a flipping module 100, a positioning module 200, a feeding module 300, and a picking module 400. The flipping module 100 includes a first driving mechanism 110 and a first adsorption mechanism 120. The first adsorption mechanism 120 has a suction head 122 for adsorbing copper sheets. The first driving mechanism 110 is drivenly connected to the first adsorption mechanism 120 and is used to drive the first adsorption mechanism 120 to switch between a feeding state and a discharging state. When the first adsorption... When the first adsorption mechanism 120 is in the loading state, the suction head 122 is set downwards; when the first adsorption mechanism 120 is in the unloading state, the suction head 122 is set upwards. The positioning module 200 is provided with a positioning area 200a for positioning the copper sheet. The feeding module 300 is located on one side of the flipping module 100 and is used to convey the copper sheet to the first adsorption mechanism in the loading state. The picking module 400 is located on one side of the flipping module 100 and is used to transfer the copper sheet on the first adsorption mechanism in the unloading state to the positioning area 200a.

[0024] In the operation of the copper sheet flipping and positioning device of this application, the copper sheet is first conveyed to one side of the flipping module 100 by the feeding module 300. At this time, the first driving mechanism 110 of the flipping module 100 drives the suction head 122 of the first suction mechanism 120 to be set downward. Then, the copper sheet is adsorbed by the suction head 122 in the feeding state. Then, the first driving mechanism 110 drives the first suction mechanism 120 to switch from the feeding state to the unloading state. At this time, the suction head 122 of the first suction mechanism 120 drives the copper sheet to be upward. Then, the copper sheet adsorbed by the suction head 122 in the unloading state is transferred to the positioning area 200a of the positioning module 200 by the picking module 400 located on one side of the flipping module 100, thus completing the flipping and positioning of the copper sheet. As can be seen from the above working process, this application realizes the automatic flipping of copper sheets through the flipping module 100, and accurately positions the flipped copper sheets through the positioning area 200a of the positioning module 200, avoiding the misalignment problem caused by manual operation and improving the positioning accuracy of the copper sheets.

[0025] Specifically, the feeding module 300 is a feeder module, which can peel off the carrier tape and transport the copper sheets on the carrier tape to the lower side of the first adsorption mechanism.

[0026] refer to Figures 1 to 3In some embodiments of this utility model, the flipping module 100 further includes a threaded locking member 140 and a mounting bracket 130. The first adsorption mechanism 120 is disposed on the mounting bracket 130. The first drive mechanism 110 includes a first driver 111 and a rotating shaft 112 extending in the horizontal direction. The first driver 111 is used to drive the rotating shaft 112 to rotate. The rotating shaft 112 is provided with an elongated hole 112a extending in its own axial direction. The threaded locking member 140 slidably passes through the elongated hole 112a and is threadedly connected to the mounting bracket 130. It can be understood that since the rotating shaft 112 extends in the horizontal direction, when the first driver 111 drives the rotating shaft 112 to rotate, the rotating shaft 112 drives the mounting bracket 130 to rotate around the horizontal axis, thereby driving the first adsorption mechanism 120 on the mounting bracket 130 to rotate around the horizontal axis, so that the first adsorption mechanism 120 can switch between the loading state and the unloading state. By adjusting the position of the threaded locking member 140 in the elongated hole 112a, the position of the first adsorption mechanism 120 in the horizontal direction can be adjusted so that the first adsorption mechanism 120 can smoothly adsorb the copper sheet on the feeding module 300.

[0027] refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments of this utility model, the first adsorption mechanism 120 further includes a mounting base 121, on which a plurality of suction heads 122 are spaced horizontally. It is understood that the multiple suction heads 122 spaced horizontally on the mounting base 121 of the first adsorption mechanism 120 can simultaneously adsorb multiple copper sheets. The use of multiple suction heads 122 to adsorb multiple copper sheets improves the efficiency of a single operation and is suitable for mass production.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the first adsorption mechanism 120 further includes a horizontal adjustment structure 123 and a vertical adjustment structure 124 connected to each other. The horizontal adjustment structure 123 is used to adjust the position of the mounting base 121 in the horizontal direction, and the vertical adjustment structure 124 is used to adjust the vertical position of the mounting base 121. It can be understood that by adjusting the horizontal position of the mounting base 121 through the horizontal adjustment structure 123, the horizontal position of the first adsorption mechanism 120 is adjusted; and by adjusting the height position of the mounting base 121 through the vertical adjustment structure 124, the vertical position of the first adsorption mechanism 120 is adjusted, thereby ensuring the contact accuracy between the suction head 122 of the first adsorption mechanism 120 and the copper sheet.

[0029] refer to Figures 3 to 5In some embodiments of this utility model, the positioning module 200 includes a second driver 210, a first positioning member 220, and a second positioning member 230. The first positioning member 220 is provided with a first positioning structure, and the second positioning member 230 is provided with a second positioning structure. A positioning area 200a is formed between the first positioning structure and the second positioning structure. The second driver 210 is connected to the first positioning member 220 and is used to drive the first positioning member 220 to move along a preset direction so that the first positioning structure moves closer to or further away from the positioning area 200a. Understandably, the first positioning element 220 is first driven away from the second positioning element 230 in a preset direction by the second driver 210 of the positioning module 200, so that the first positioning structure is away from the second positioning structure. Then, the copper sheet is placed on the positioning area 200a of the second positioning element 230 of the positioning module 200 by the material picking module 400. Then, the first positioning element 220 is driven closer to the second positioning element 230 in a preset direction by the second driver 210 of the positioning module 200, so that the first positioning structure is close to the second positioning structure, so that the copper sheet in the positioning area 200a is clamped and positioned by the first positioning structure and the second positioning structure.

[0030] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the first positioning structure is a first positioning groove 220a provided on the first positioning member 220, the first positioning groove 220a having intersecting first groove wall 221 and second groove wall 222, the second positioning structure is a second positioning groove 230a provided on the second positioning member 230, the second positioning groove 230a having intersecting third groove wall 231 and fourth groove wall 232, the first groove wall 221, the second groove wall 222, the third groove wall 231 and the fourth groove wall 232 together define a positioning area 200a forming a quadrilateral, and the preset direction is parallel to the extension direction of one diagonal of the positioning area 200a. It is understandable that by driving the first positioning member 220 to move along the diagonal direction of the positioning area 200a towards the second positioning member 230 through the second driver 210 of the positioning module 200, the first groove wall 221, the second groove wall 222, the third groove wall 231 and the fourth groove wall 232 can cooperate with each other to limit the four sides of the copper sheet in the positioning area 200a. By driving the first positioning member 220 to move along the diagonal through the second driver 210, the overall structure of the positioning module 200 can be made more compact.

[0031] like Figures 3 to 5As shown, in some embodiments, the first positioning member 220 is provided with a first guide surface 220b extending along a preset direction, and the second positioning member 230 is provided with a second guide surface 230b extending along a preset direction, with the first guide surface 220b abutting against the second guide surface 230b. It can be understood that by having the first guide surface 220b of the first positioning member 220 abut against the second guide surface 230b of the second positioning member 230, the possibility of the first positioning member 220 shifting relative to the second positioning member 230 during movement is reduced, thereby improving the accuracy of repeated positioning.

[0032] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the first groove wall 221 and the third groove wall 231 are distributed facing each other along the first horizontal direction, and the second groove wall 222 and the fourth groove wall 232 are distributed facing each other along the second horizontal direction, which intersects with the first horizontal direction. Two sets of second actuators 210 and first positioning members 220 are provided, with the two first positioning members 220 distributed along the first horizontal direction. Two second positioning structures are provided on the second positioning member 230, distributed along the first horizontal direction, with each second positioning structure corresponding to a first positioning structure. Two second actuators 210 are distributed along the second horizontal direction. It can be understood that by setting two sets of second actuators 210 and first positioning members 220, distributing the two first positioning members 220 along the first horizontal direction, and distributing the two second actuators 210 along the second horizontal direction, and with each second actuator 210 driving the two first positioning members 220 to move along the diagonal of the positioning area 200a, the space occupied by the two first positioning members 220 during movement is reduced, resulting in a more compact overall structure for the positioning module 200.

[0033] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 In some embodiments of this utility model, the material handling module 400 includes a position adjustment mechanism 410 and a second adsorption mechanism 420. The second adsorption mechanism 420 is used to adsorb copper sheets. The position adjustment mechanism 410 is connected to the second adsorption mechanism 420 and is used to drive the second adsorption mechanism 420 to transfer the copper sheets on the first adsorption mechanism 120 in the unloading state to the positioning area 200a. It can be understood that the position adjustment mechanism 410 drives the second adsorption mechanism 420 to move to the first adsorption mechanism 120 in the unloading state and adsorbs the copper sheets adsorbed by the suction head 122 of the first adsorption mechanism 120. Then, the position adjustment mechanism 410 drives the second adsorption mechanism 420 with the adsorbed copper sheets to move to the positioning module 200 and place the copper sheets in the positioning area 200a of the positioning module 200.

[0034] refer to Figure 3In some embodiments of this utility model, the positioning module 200 includes a second driving mechanism 240, a support base 250, and multiple positioning mechanisms 260. The multiple positioning mechanisms 260 are distributed horizontally at intervals on the support base 250. Each positioning mechanism 260 has a positioning area 200a. The second driving mechanism 240 is connected to the support base 250 and can drive the support base 250 to move horizontally, so that the positioning mechanisms 260 sequentially move to the material-picking module 400 to receive the copper sheets placed by the material-picking module 400. It can be understood that by driving the support base 250 to move horizontally through the second driving mechanism, the positioning mechanisms 260 on the support base 250 are moved horizontally, so that the second adsorption mechanism 420 can align with the positioning area 200a of the positioning mechanism 260 and place the copper sheet adsorbed by the second adsorption mechanism 420 into the positioning area 200a of the positioning mechanism 260.

[0035] Specifically, the positioning mechanism 260 includes a second driver 210, a first positioning element 220, and a second positioning element 230.
