Detailed Implementation

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments described are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0019] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 The diagram illustrates a carrier storage device according to an embodiment of the present invention. It is primarily used for storing and securing multiple stacked carriers, each containing multiple electronic components. The device mainly comprises a first fixing plate 100 and a second fixing plate 200 arranged opposite each other, which are adjustablely connected together by a connecting rod 300 and a locking member 400 to accommodate different numbers of carriers. Multiple first clamping slots 110 and second clamping slots 210 are respectively provided on both sides of the first fixing plate 100 and the second fixing plate 200 for cooperation with a robotic arm to identify and grasp the first fixing plate 100 and the second fixing plate 200, facilitating the opening and closing of the storage device by the robotic arm.

[0020] The first fixing plate 100 includes a first main body 120 and first connecting portions 130 protruding outwards from both ends of the first main body 120; the second fixing plate 200 includes a second main body 220 and second connecting portions 230 protruding outwards from both ends of the second main body 220. A connecting rod 300 is fixedly connected to each first connecting portion 130. Correspondingly, each second connecting portion 230 has a through hole 270 through which the connecting rod 300 can pass.

[0021] The connecting rod 300 has external threads on at least its upper part. The locking element 400, such as a wing nut or a regular nut, has internal threads that mate with the external threads of the connecting rod 300. Tightening the locking element 400 pulls the second fixing plate 200 closer to the first fixing plate 100, thereby clamping the carrier placed between them; loosening the locking element 400 increases the distance between the two fixing plates, allowing the carrier to be slid in or out from the side of the storage device; removing the locking element 400 from the connecting rod 300 opens the second fixing plate 200, allowing the carrier to be removed from above the storage device.

[0022] Both the first main body 120 and the second main body 220 are quadrilateral (preferably rectangular). Multiple limiting members 500 are vertically connected to the four corners of the first main body 120. These limiting members 500 have an L-shaped cross-section, which not only abuts against the four corners of the second main body 220 from the inside to form a stable frame structure, but more importantly, their L-shaped inner corner areas can be used to abut against the corners of the carrier, preventing the carrier from moving laterally within the device and achieving initial positioning.

[0023] Below the second fixed plate 200, a pressure plate 240 is provided. The second fixed plate 200 and the pressure plate 240 are connected by multiple vertically arranged guide rods 250. The lower end of the guide rod 250 is fixed to the pressure plate 240, and the upper end passes through a hole in the second fixed plate 200 and can slide up and down. An elastic element 260, such as a compression spring, is fitted on each guide rod 250. One end of the elastic element 260 abuts against the upper surface of the pressure plate 240, and the other end abuts against the lower surface of the second fixed plate 200. In its natural state, the elastic force of the elastic element 260 drives the pressure plate 240 to move downward. When the carrier is placed in the device, the pressure plate 240 continuously presses the carrier downward under the action of the elastic element 260, providing a force that automatically adapts to and presses the lower surface of the carrier, preventing damage to the carrier and enhancing the stability of the fixation, especially suitable for irregularly shaped carriers.

[0024] Multiple first clamping slots 110 are provided on the front and rear sides of the first main body 120. A first clamping block 600 is installed in each first clamping slot 110. A first V-shaped opening 610 is provided on the first clamping block 600, which is particularly suitable for clamping by a robotic arm.

[0025] Similarly, multiple second clamping slots 210 are provided on the front and rear sides of the second main body 220. A second clamping block 700 is installed in each second clamping slot 210. The second clamping block 700 has a second V-shaped opening 710, which has the same function as the first V-shaped opening 610.

[0026] To achieve non-destructive gripping of the storage device and provide sufficient friction, the first gripper 600 and the second gripper 700 are preferably made of elastic and wear-resistant materials such as rubber. The first gripper 600 and the second gripper 700 are selected in easily identifiable colors to facilitate gripping by the robotic arm.

[0027] Specifically, the first clamping groove 110 is composed of a first groove 111 and a second groove 112 that are interconnected. The first groove 111 is located on the upper surface of the first main body 120 and has a larger cross-section; the second groove 112 is located on the lower surface of the first main body 120 and has a smaller cross-section. The first clamping block 600 is embedded into the first groove 111 from top to bottom. Because its size is larger than the second groove 112 below, it is reliably confined within the first groove 111 and will not fall out. This "larger at the top and smaller at the bottom" structure facilitates the installation and replacement of the clamping block. Furthermore, the second groove 112 is convenient for accommodating the robotic arm.

[0028] Similarly, the second clamping groove 210 is composed of a third groove 211 and a fourth groove 212 that are interconnected. The third groove 211 is located on the upper surface of the second main body 220 and has a larger cross-section; the fourth groove 212 is located on its lower surface and has a smaller cross-section. The second clamping block 700 is installed in the third groove 211 in the same manner.

[0029] In use, the robotic arm first rotates the locking members 400 at both ends and picks up the two locking members 400. The gripper of the robotic arm cooperates with the second V-shaped opening 710 of the second clamping block 700, and the second fixing plate 200 is removed from the two connecting rods 300 by clamping the second clamping block 700. Then, the carrier is placed layer by layer into the storage space formed by the first fixing plate 100 and multiple limiting members 500, so that its corners are initially limited by the L-shaped limiting members 500. The bottom of the carrier will fall on the first fixing plate 100. After placing a set number of carriers, the robotic arm installs the first fixing plate 100 on the two connecting rods 300, locks the two locking members 400 on the connecting rods 300, and the pressure plate 240, under the action of the elastic member 260, always applies a downward pressure to the carrier, firmly clamping the multi-layer carrier in the fixed space formed by the pressure plate 240, the second fixing plate 200, and the multiple limiting members 500.
