Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of semiconductor device testing equipment technology, and in particular to a flip-type socket automatic loading and unloading device. Background Technology
[0002] In the aging test of chips and semiconductor devices, flip-top sockets are widely used due to their good electrical connection performance and reliability. These sockets are usually designed with a locking knob and a safety latch structure. During operation, the knob must be manually turned off and the latch lifted to open the socket cover. The device under test is placed into the contact cavity, and then the socket cover is closed and the knob is tightened with a specific torque to ensure the reliability of the electrical connection. When unloading, the reverse steps are repeated to remove the tested device. Currently, this process relies heavily on manual operation, which has problems such as low efficiency, inconsistent tightening torque leading to poor contact or device damage, improper operation causing device pin bending or socket contact wear, and frequent human contact increasing the risk of electrostatic discharge. At the same time, labor costs continue to rise and it is difficult to achieve accurate recording and traceability of the operation process, which does not meet the requirements of high-standard quality control and data management.

[0011] Furthermore, the latch pressing part includes a rotatable roller; after the latch lifting part drives the roller to descend and contact the latch, the horizontal movement of the motion platform drives the roller to roll the latch, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the socket.

[0018] The following will clearly and completely describe the concept, specific structure, and technical effects of this utility model in conjunction with embodiments and accompanying drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, features, and effects of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are all within the scope of protection of this utility model. Furthermore, all connections / linkages involved in the patent do not simply refer to direct contact between components, but rather to the ability to form a better connection structure by adding or reducing connecting accessories according to specific implementation conditions. The various technical features in this utility model can be combined interactively without contradicting each other.
[0019] Reference Figure 1-12As shown, this utility model provides an automatic loading and unloading device for flip-type sockets. The core technical solution of the device is that the aging board 300, which is loaded with multiple sets of flip-type sockets 400, is transported to the picking and placing position 212 of the host 200 through the aging board conveying mechanism 100. The aging board 300 is fixed by the positioning mechanism 210 in the host 200. Then, the motion platform 240 of the host 200 drives the execution component 220 to perform horizontal two-dimensional movement above the aging board 300. This causes the knob rotation mechanism 222, the latch opening and closing mechanism 223, and the device picking and placing mechanism 221 in the execution component 220 to correspond to the positions of each socket 400 in sequence, completing the rotation unlocking of the knob 420, the pressing opening and closing of the latch 410, and the device picking and placing on the tray feeding / receiving mechanism 230 and the socket. The transfer operation between 400 enables the mechanization and automation of multiple independent actions such as turning knobs, opening and closing buckles, and placing components in manual operation. At the same time, by coordinating the vertical movement of the actuator 220 with the horizontal movement of the motion platform 240, the same set of actuators can complete the automated loading and unloading of all Socket 400 on the aging board 300 in sequence or in parallel.
[0020] The working principle of this technical solution is as follows: the aging board conveying mechanism 100 is responsible for the conveying and storage of the aging board 300; the positioning mechanism 210 achieves the positioning of the aging board 300 through mechanical lifting and baffle limiting; the motion platform 240 adopts a gantry structure to provide a high-rigidity two-dimensional motion platform; and the execution component 220 integrates three special mechanisms: the knob rotation mechanism 222, the latch opening and closing mechanism 223, and the device picking and placing mechanism 221, which correspond to the three key actions of knob turning, latch opening, and device placement in the operation of the flip-type Socket 400, respectively. This allows the equipment to complete the complete operation process of a single Socket 400 in one working cycle, and to realize the traversal operation of all Socket 400s on the entire aging board 300 through the movement of the motion platform 240.
[0021] Compared to traditional manual operation, this technical solution offers significant advantages. Firstly, in terms of efficiency, the automated operation eliminates time-consuming actions such as manually turning knobs and opening / closing latches, reducing the loading and unloading time for a single aging board 300 from tens of minutes to just a few minutes, greatly increasing the throughput of the testing equipment. Secondly, regarding quality and reliability, the knob rotation mechanism 222 ensures consistency in each locking operation through torque control, avoiding problems such as poor contact or damage from excessive tightening caused by uneven torque during manual tightening. The rolling design of the latch opening / closing mechanism 223 reduces the impact on the Socket 400 structural components, lowering the risk of cover plate breakage and contact wear. The vacuum adsorption method of the device picking and placing mechanism 221 avoids human contact, eliminating the risk of electrostatic discharge damage to precision semiconductor devices. Thirdly, in terms of cost, the equipment significantly reduces labor costs by replacing manual operation, and simultaneously reduces the scrap rate of Socket 400 and devices through control, lowering the unit testing cost. Finally, in terms of traceability, the automated operation of the equipment can record the data for each Socket. The locking torque of 400 and the number of opening and closing cycles meet the high standards of quality control and data management requirements.
[0022] The aging board conveying mechanism 100 is used to realize the automated storage, conveying, and segmented pushing of the aging boards 300, as shown in the reference. Figure 1-3 The mechanism includes a material frame 110, a conveyor chain 120, and a lifting platform 130. The material frame 110 serves as a container for the aging boards 300 and can stack and store multiple aging boards 300. The conveyor chain 120 drives the material frame 110 to move horizontally, transporting the material frame 110 loaded with aging boards 300 from the storage position to the pushing position. The lifting platform 130 works in conjunction with the conveyor chain 120 to adjust the vertical height of the material frame 110, so that the aging boards 300 of different levels in the material frame 110 are aligned sequentially with the pushing height of the pushing mechanism.
[0023] In the specific operation process, the conveyor chain 120 first transports the material frame 110, which is loaded with aging boards 300 to be fed, to the lifting platform 130. The lifting platform 130 gradually rises according to the number of aging boards 300 stacked in the material frame 110, so that the top layer of aging boards 300 is aligned with the pushing height of the pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism pushes the aging boards 300 out of the material frame 110 with horizontal thrust, so that the aging boards 300 enter the moving channel 211 of the positioning mechanism 210. After one aging board 300 is pushed, the lifting platform 130 rises by the thickness of one aging board, so that the next aging board 300 is aligned with the pushing height. This cycle is repeated until all aging boards 300 in the material frame 110 are pushed. This design realizes the continuous automated supply of aging boards 300, ensuring the continuous operation of the main unit 200 without manual intervention.
[0024] For the aging board 300 that has completed loading and unloading operations, the pusher mechanism pushes it back from the host 200 to the material frame 110. The lifting platform 130 lowers to receive the recycled aging board 300. When the material frame 110 is full, the conveyor chain 120 transports it to the storage area or the next work station, realizing the closed-loop circulation of the aging board 300.
[0025] Reference Figure 2 , 5 9. The core function of the positioning mechanism 210 is to provide a stable working platform for the aging board 300. The mechanism forms a moving channel 211 through which the aging board 300 passes. The moving channel 211 connects the aging board conveying mechanism 100 and the pick-and-place position 212, so that the aging board 300 can smoothly enter from the material frame 110 and finally be fixed in the pick-and-place position 212. The positioning mechanism 210 also includes a liftable positioning component 213 and a push-pull component 214. The positioning component 213 achieves the positioning and fixing of the aging board 300 through the lifting movement, while the push-pull component 214 is responsible for the bidirectional transfer of the aging board 300 between the moving channel 211 and the pick-and-place position 212.
[0026] Reference Figure 9 The positioning component 213 includes a lifting drive 2131, a fixing plate 2132, a first baffle 2133, and a second baffle 2134. The fixing plate 2132 extends along the moving direction of the aging plate 300, and its two ends are respectively provided with the first baffle 2133 and the second baffle 2134. The lifting drive 2131 drives the fixing plate 2132 to rise and fall vertically. When the fixing plate 2132 is in the lowered position, the first baffle 2133 and the second baffle 2134 are lower than the moving path of the aging plate 300, and the aging plate 300 can move freely through the moving channel 211. When the aging board 300 reaches the material handling position 212, the lifting drive component 2131 drives the fixed plate 2132 to rise to the rising position. The first baffle 2133 and the second baffle 2134 respectively stop the front and rear ends of the aging board 300. At the same time, the fixed plate 2132 lifts the aging board 300 so that it is separated from the support surface of the moving channel 211, thereby realizing the three-dimensional limiting and fixing of the aging board 300. This design ensures that the aging board 300 maintains a stable position during the operation of the execution component 220 and will not have displacement deviation due to vibration or force.
[0027] Continue to refer to Figure 9The push-pull assembly 214 is disposed within the moving channel 211 and includes a push-pull drive component 2141 and a liftable push-pull plate 2142. When the push-pull plate 2142 is in the lowered position, it is lower than the support surface of the moving channel 211 and does not interfere with the passage of the aging board 300. When the aging board 300 needs to be moved, the push-pull plate 2142 rises to a height flush with the end of the aging board 300. The push-pull drive component 2141 drives the push-pull plate 2142 to move horizontally along the moving channel 211, pushing the aging board 300 from the moving channel 211 into the pick-up and drop-off position 212, or pulling the aging board 300 that has completed its work back from the pick-up and drop-off position 212 to the moving channel 211. Through the liftable design of the push-pull plate 2142, frictional interference between the push-pull plate 2142 and the bottom surface of the aging board 300 is avoided, ensuring the stability of the aging board 300 transfer process.
[0028] When the aging board conveying mechanism 100 pushes the aging board 300 into the moving channel 211, the push-pull plate 2142 of the push-pull assembly 214 rises and pushes forward, accurately delivering the aging board 300 into the pick-up and drop-off position 212. Then, the push-pull plate 2142 descends and exits, and the fixing plate 2132 of the positioning assembly 213 rises. Through the first baffle 2133, the second baffle 2134, and the fixing plate 2132 itself, the aging board 300 is constrained at three points, completing the positioning and fixing. After the execution assembly 220 completes the operation of the entire aging board 300, the positioning assembly 213 descends to release the aging board 300, and the push-pull assembly 214 moves again to push the aging board 300 back into the moving channel 211. Finally, the push-pull mechanism pushes it back into the material frame 110. The entire process can achieve automatic entry and exit and precise positioning of the aging board 300 without manual intervention.
[0029] Reference Figure 2 , 5 6. The motion platform 240 provides the execution component 220 with high-precision horizontal two-dimensional motion capability. It adopts a gantry structure to meet the comprehensive requirements of high rigidity, high speed and high precision. The motion platform 240 includes a gantry frame 241 and a crossbeam 242. The gantry frame 241 is set perpendicular to the conveying direction of the aging board 300 and has two opposing columns 2411. Each column 2411 is equipped with a first linear module 2412. The two first linear modules 2412 are synchronously driven by two motors to ensure that the gantry frame 241 remains parallel during movement. The crossbeam 242 extends along the conveying direction of the aging board 300, spans between the two columns 2411 and can move along the first linear module 2412. A second linear module 2421 is provided on the crossbeam 242. The execution component 220 is installed on the slider of the second linear module 2421. Horizontal two-dimensional positioning is achieved through the orthogonal movement of the first linear module 2412 and the second linear module 2421.
[0030] The dual-servo synchronous drive structure of the gantry 241 enables high-precision motion. The two first linear modules 2412 are driven by independent servo motors. The synchronous controller monitors the position feedback signals of the motors on both sides in real time and dynamically adjusts the drive commands on both sides to keep the two columns 2411 moving synchronously. This design effectively suppresses the torsional deformation of the gantry that may occur during long-stroke motion and ensures the parallelism of the crossbeam 242. Even in high-speed reciprocating motion, it can maintain stable positioning accuracy. Compared with the single-motor drive scheme, the dual-servo synchronous drive has stronger load capacity and faster response speed, which can meet the dynamic performance requirements of the actuator 220 moving quickly and starting and stopping frequently above the aging plate 300.
[0031] The second linear module 2421 on the crossbeam 242 adopts a high-precision ball screw drive. Compared with the gear and rack drive, the ball screw has higher transmission efficiency and positioning accuracy. It can convert the rotational motion of the servo motor into linear motion while maintaining a very small transmission gap. The slider of the second linear module 2421 is fixedly connected to the actuator 220. Through the precise position control of the servo motor, the actuator 220 is accurately positioned in the direction of the crossbeam 242. The self-locking property of the ball screw drive can also keep the position of the actuator 220 from drifting in the power-off state, which improves the safety and reliability of the system.
[0032] Through the orthogonal motion coordination of the first linear module 2412 and the second linear module 2421, the motion platform 240 can precisely move the execution component 220 directly above any Socket 400 on the aging board 300, with a positioning accuracy of ±0.05mm. This meets the positional requirements of precision operations such as device placement, knob rotation, and latch opening and closing. The high rigidity of the gantry structure ensures that the motion platform 240 will not experience significant bending deformation when bearing the execution component 220 and its forces, guaranteeing the stability of positioning accuracy during long-term use. The combination of dual-motor synchronous drive and ball screw transmission achieves the best balance between high speed and high precision for the motion platform 240. It can quickly complete the movement between Socket 400 positions to improve work efficiency, and accurately position itself after reaching the desired position to ensure operational quality.
[0033] Reference Figure 2 , 58. The execution component 220 is the core functional module for realizing the automated operation of Socket 400. It integrates four modules: device pick-and-place mechanism 221, knob rotation mechanism 222, latch opening and closing mechanism 223, and CCD component 224. The integrated structure allows all operating mechanisms to share the horizontal positioning capability provided by the motion platform 240. By moving the motion platform 240, different mechanisms are aligned with the target Socket 400 in sequence to realize the sequential operation of knob unlocking, latch opening and closing, and device transfer. At the same time, each mechanism has independent vertical movement capability relative to the motion platform 240, and can adjust the working height and force according to their respective process requirements. The execution component 220 is installed on the slider of the second linear module 2421 of the motion platform 240. It moves horizontally in two dimensions above the aging board 300 with the motion platform 240, covering the positions of all Socket 400 on the aging board 300.
[0034] The device pick-and-place mechanism 221 is responsible for transferring devices between the tray feeding / receiving mechanism 230 and the Socket 400. This mechanism includes a pick-and-place lifting unit 2211 and a device gripping unit 2212. The pick-and-place lifting unit 2211 drives the device gripping unit 2212 to move vertically through a linear drive device. The device gripping unit 2212 uses vacuum adsorption to grip devices. The device gripping unit 2212 includes multiple suction heads arranged in parallel. Each suction head is independently controllable and adsorbs devices through vacuum negative pressure. The pick-and-place lifting unit 2211 can drive multiple suction heads to move synchronously, realizing the parallel pick-and-place operation of multiple devices. This multi-suction head parallel design significantly improves the device transfer efficiency. When a group of Socket 400 needs to place multiple devices, the device gripping unit 2212 can grab the corresponding number of devices from the tray feeding / receiving mechanism 230 at one time, and then move with the motion platform 240 to the top of the Socket 400. The batch placement of devices is completed by releasing multiple suction heads in sequence.
[0035] The operation of the device pick-and-place mechanism 221 embodies a combination of control and flexible operation. During the loading stage, the motion platform 240 first moves the device pick-and-place mechanism 221 above the pick-and-place / feed area 233 of the tray feeding / receiving mechanism 230. The CCD component 224 identifies the position and orientation of the device in the tray 234. Based on the identification result, it adjusts the position of the suction head of the device gripper 2212 to ensure the suction head is accurately aligned with the center of the device. The pick-and-place lifting unit 2211 drives the device gripper 2212 to descend to the set height. After the suction head contacts the device surface, a vacuum negative pressure is activated to complete the adsorption. The pick-and-place lifting unit 2211 then drives the device gripper 2212 to rise, removing the device from the tray 234. The motion platform 240 then moves the device pick-and-place mechanism 221 above the target Socket 400. The CCD component 224 again confirms the position of the Socket 400 cavity. The pick-and-place lifting unit 2211 then drives the device gripper 2212 to descend, placing the device into the Socket. In the 400 cavity, the suction head releases the vacuum negative pressure to complete the placement of the device. The pick-and-place lifting part 2211 drives the device gripping part 2212 to rise and reset. The operation process of the unloading stage is reversed. The device pick-and-place mechanism 221 takes out the tested device from the Socket 400 and places it into the tray 234 of the lower tray area 232 of the tray feeding / receiving mechanism 230.
[0036] Reference Figure 8 , 11 The knob rotation mechanism 222 is specifically designed to automate the rotation of the socket knob 420. This mechanism includes a knob lifting section 2221 and a knob rotating section 2222. The knob lifting section 2221 drives the knob rotating section 2222 to move vertically upwards and downwards via a linear drive device. The knob rotating section 2222 includes a straight insert that mates with the slot 421 of the socket knob 420. The knob 420 is unlocked or locked via rotation. The lower end of the knob rotating section 2222 is connected to the slot of the socket knob 420. The slot 421 is matched with a straight insert. The size and shape of the straight insert are matched with the slot 421 to ensure that the torque can be reliably transmitted after insertion without slippage. The knob lifting part 2221 adopts a closed-loop servo motor and ball screw drive to precisely control the insertion depth of the straight insert, avoiding damage to the knob 420 due to excessive insertion or insufficient torque transmission due to insufficient insertion. The rotation drive of the knob rotating part 2222 also adopts a closed-loop servo motor. By monitoring the rotation angle and rotation torque in real time, precise control of the locking state of the knob 420 is achieved.
[0037] The working process of the knob rotation mechanism 222 embodies a high degree of unity between positioning and control. When the motion platform 240 moves the knob rotation mechanism 222 directly above the Socket knob 420, the CCD component 224 identifies the direction of the slot 421 of the knob 420. Based on the identification result, the rotation angle of the knob rotation part 2222 is adjusted so that the slot 421 is aligned with the direction of the slot 421. The knob lifting part 2221 drives the knob rotation part 2222 to descend, and the slot 421 is inserted into the slot 421 to a preset depth. The rotary motor of the knob rotation part 2222 is started, rotating at a specific angle according to operational requirements. Before loading, the unlock knob 420 needs to be rotated to open the Socket 400. The rotation angle is usually 90 degrees to 180 degrees, depending on the Socket. The design of 400 requires rotating the locking knob 420 after the device is placed to ensure a reliable connection between the device pins and the socket contacts. During the rotation, the rotation torque is monitored in real time. When the torque reaches the preset locking torque value, the rotation stops to avoid over-tightening and damage to the knob 420 or socket 400. At the same time, it ensures the consistency of torque for each locking operation and eliminates the quality risks of uneven torque in manual operation. After the rotation is completed, the knob lifting part 2221 drives the knob rotating part 2222 to rise, the I-shaped insert retracts from the I-slot 421, and the knob rotating mechanism 222 resets to standby.
[0038] Reference Figure 8 , 11 12. The latch opening and closing mechanism 223 is used to realize the automated pressing and opening operation of the Socket latch 410. The mechanism includes a latch lifting part 2231 and a latch pressing part 2232. The latch lifting part 2231 drives the latch pressing part 2232 to rise and fall vertically through a linear drive device. The latch pressing part 2232 includes a rotatable roller. The roller cooperates with the Socket latch 410 to realize the opening and closing of the latch 410 by pressing. The roller design of the latch pressing part 2232 is the innovation of this mechanism. Compared with the traditional direct pressing method, the roller can rotate freely with the horizontal movement of the motion platform 240 after contacting the latch 410. Rolling friction replaces sliding friction, which significantly reduces the wear on the surface of the latch 410 and extends the service life of the Socket 400. At the same time, the rolling action of the roller makes the opening and closing process of the latch 410 smoother, reduces the impact force on the Socket 400 structural components, and reduces the risk of cover plate breakage and fatigue damage of the connection parts.
[0039] The working process of the latch opening and closing mechanism 223 fully utilizes the motion capability of the motion platform 240. After the motion platform 240 moves the latch opening and closing mechanism 223 to the starting position of the Socket latch 410, the latch lifting part 2231 drives the latch pressing part 2232 to descend. The roller contacts the surface of the latch 410 and applies a preset pressing force. The motion platform 240 then moves horizontally along the lever direction of the latch 410. Under the action of the pressing force, the roller rolls along the surface of the latch 410, pushing the latch 410 from the locked position to the open position or from the open position through the lever principle. When pushed to the locked position, the rolling stroke and rolling pressure are controlled by adjusting the descent depth of the latch lifting part 2231 and the moving distance of the motion platform 240 to ensure that the latch 410 can be fully opened or fully locked. After rolling, the latch lifting part 2231 drives the latch pressing part 2232 to rise, the roller disengages from the latch 410, and the latch opening and closing mechanism 223 resets to standby. Compared with the traditional direct pressing method, this rolling opening and closing method has the advantages of more uniform force, smoother action and less wear, and is particularly suitable for the flip-type Socket 400 application scenario that requires frequent opening and closing.
[0040] Reference Figure 8 The CCD component 224 provides the visual assurance for the precise operation of the actuator 220. The CCD component 224, along with the device pick-and-place mechanism 221, the latch opening and closing mechanism 223, and the knob rotation mechanism 222, are mounted on the motion platform 240. Before operation, the CCD component 224 acquires images of the aging board 300 and identifies the position information of the socket 400 and the devices. The image recognition function of the CCD component 224 includes several aspects: first, identifying the precise position of each socket 400 on the aging board 300 and establishing a coordinate database of the socket 400 positions to provide target coordinates for the movement of the motion platform 240; second, identifying the direction of the slot 421 of the knob 420 within each socket 400 to provide angular information for the alignment of the knob rotation mechanism 222; and third, identifying the socket... The position and lever direction of the latch 410 of 400 provide guidance for the rolling path of the latch opening and closing mechanism 223. Finally, the position and orientation of the device on the tray 234 in the tray feeding / receiving mechanism 230 are identified, providing coordinate and angle information for the precise gripping of the device picking and placing mechanism 221.
[0041] The workflow of CCD component 224 embodies a deep integration of visual guidance and automated control. After the aging board 300 is fixed at the pick-and-place position 212 by the positioning mechanism 210, the motion platform 240 first drives CCD component 224 to scan above the aging board 300. CCD component 224 performs regional image acquisition on the aging board 300 and identifies key information such as the position coordinates of each socket 400, the angle of the slot 421 of the knob 420, and the lever position of the buckle 410 through image processing algorithms. This information is stored in the control system as the reference data for the subsequent execution of the actions of each mechanism of component 220. When the device pick-and-place mechanism 221, the knob rotation mechanism 222, and the buckle opening and closing mechanism 223 perform their respective operations, the motion platform 240 accurately moves the corresponding mechanism to the target position according to the coordinate data provided by CCD component 224. CCD component 224 can also perform secondary confirmation at key operation nodes, such as taking another picture of the socket before placing the device. The placement action is only performed after the 400 cavity image confirms that there are no foreign objects in the cavity and that the position is accurate. This visual guidance mechanism greatly improves the reliability and fault tolerance of automated operation. Even if there is a slight positional deviation of the aging board 300 or individual differences in the Socket 400, the CCD component 224 can perform dynamic compensation through real-time recognition to ensure the accuracy of each operation.
[0042] Reference Figure 2 , 5 7. The pallet feeding / receiving mechanism 230 is responsible for the supply and retrieval of components. It is located within the working range of the motion platform 240. Its position is selected in an area that the motion platform 240 can reach but does not conflict with the material handling position 212 of the aging board 300. The pallet feeding / receiving mechanism 230 includes an upper pallet area 231, a lower pallet area 232, a material handling / feeding area 233, and a pallet 234. The upper pallet area 231 is used to store the pallet 234 loaded with components to be loaded. The lower pallet area 232 is used to store the pallet 234 that has been unloaded. The material handling / feeding area 233 is located between the upper pallet area 231 and the lower pallet area 232. It is the working position for the component handling / receiving mechanism 221 to handle material handling. The pallet 234 flows sequentially between the upper pallet area 231, the material handling / feeding area 233, and the lower pallet area 232 to realize the automatic supply and retrieval of components.
[0043] The integrated design of the pallet feeding / receiving mechanism 230 achieves seamless connection between the loading and unloading processes. The upper pallet area 231 adopts a stacked storage structure, which can accommodate multiple layers of pallets 234. Each layer of pallets 234 is loaded with a certain number of devices to be loaded. The upper pallet area 231 is equipped with a lifting drive device, which can send the bottom layer of pallets 234 out layer by layer to the picking / feeding area 233. After the device picking and placing mechanism 221 removes all devices from the pallets 234, the empty pallets 234 are removed from the picking / feeding area 233. The lifting drive device of the upper pallet area 231 rises and sends the next layer of pallets 234 loaded with devices to the picking / feeding area 233. This cycle repeats until all the pallets 234 in the upper pallet area 231 are used up. The lower pallet area 232 also adopts a stacked storage structure and is used to receive pallets 234 loaded with unloaded devices. In the unloading process, the empty pallets 234 are first placed in the picking / feeding area 233. The device picking and placing mechanism 221 will pick up the devices from the socket. The devices taken out from 400 are placed on tray 234 in sequence. When tray 234 is full, it is moved to the lower tray area 232 for stacking and storage. The lifting drive device of the lower tray area 232 works in conjunction with the stacking of trays 234 to ensure that the spacing between each layer of trays 234 is consistent.
[0044] The pick-up / feed area 233 of the tray feeding / receiving mechanism 230 is a key position for the interaction between the device pick-up / placement mechanism 221 and the tray 234. The height of the pick-up / feed area 233 is precisely designed so that the suction head of the device pick-up / placement mechanism 221 can accurately contact the device in the tray 234 when it descends to the working height. The pick-up / feed area 233 is equipped with a positioning mechanism to ensure that the position of the tray 234 is stable after it is in place. The CCD component 224 performs image recognition on the tray 234 in the pick-up / feed area 233 to obtain the precise position coordinates of each device in the tray 234. The device pick-up / placement mechanism 221 picks up or places the devices in sequence according to these coordinates. The device arrangement of the tray 234 usually adopts a matrix layout, with sufficient spacing between the devices to avoid interference between the suction heads, while maximizing the device capacity of a single tray 234.
[0045] The automated flow mechanism of the pallet feeding / receiving mechanism 230 supports continuous operation of the equipment. The stacking capacity of the pallets 234 in the upper pallet area 231 and the lower pallet area 232 is large enough to meet the loading and unloading needs of multiple aging boards 300 without frequent manual replenishment or emptying of the pallets 234. During equipment operation, operators can replenish new pallets 234 with loaded components before the pallets 234 in the upper pallet area 231 are about to run out, or remove pallets 234 that are full of components before the pallets 234 in the lower pallet area 232 are about to be fully loaded. This design achieves uninterrupted loading and unloading during the process, ensuring the continuous production capacity of the equipment. The standardized design of the pallets 234 makes them compatible with components of different specifications. By replacing different pallets 234, the equipment can be compatible with multiple component types, improving the flexibility and versatility of the equipment.
[0046] The loading process of the equipment is a highly automated continuous operation. First, the aging board 300 to be loaded is loaded into the material frame 110 in the aging board conveying mechanism 100. The socket 400 on these aging boards 300 is in an empty state. The conveyor chain 120 transports the material frame 110 from the storage position to the lifting platform 130. The lifting platform 130 raises the material frame 110 according to the number of stacked layers of aging boards 300 in the material frame 110, so that the uppermost aging board 300 is aligned with the pushing height of the pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism pushes the aging boards 300 out of the material frame 110 piece by piece with horizontal thrust. The aging boards 300 enter the working area of the host 200 along the moving channel 211.
[0047] When the aging board 300 reaches the moving channel 211, the push-pull component 214 of the positioning mechanism 210 is activated. The push-pull drive component 2141 drives the push-pull plate 2142 to rise and push forward, accurately pushing the aging board 300 from the moving channel 211 into the pick-up and drop-off position 212. The push-pull plate 2142 then descends and exits. The lifting drive component 2131 of the positioning component 213 is activated, driving the fixing plate 2132 to rise. The fixing plate 2132 lifts the aging board 300 so that it is separated from the support surface of the moving channel 211. At the same time, the first baffle 2133 and the second baffle 2134 respectively stop the front and rear ends of the aging board 300, realizing the three-dimensional limiting and fixing of the aging board 300. After the aging board 300 is firmly fixed in the pick-up and drop-off position 212, it provides a stable working platform for the subsequent operation of the execution component 220.
[0048] The CCD component 224 moves scanningly above the aging plate 300 along with the motion platform 240, acquiring images and identifying the position of each Socket 400 on the aging plate 300. The identified information includes the position coordinates of the Socket 400, the angle of the slot 421 of the knob 420, the lever position of the buckle 410, and other key information. This information is stored in the control system and a work path is generated. The work path planning takes into account the principle of the shortest travel distance and the highest work efficiency, and determines the operation sequence of the execution component 220 on each Socket 400.
[0049] The execution component 220 begins to operate the first Socket 400. The motion platform 240 first moves the knob rotation mechanism 222 directly above the Socket knob 420. The knob lifting part 2221 drives the knob rotation part 2222 to descend. The straight insert is aligned with and inserted into the straight slot 421 of the knob 420. The rotation motor of the knob rotation part 2222 starts and rotates at a preset angle to unlock the knob 420. During the rotation, the rotation torque is monitored in real time. After confirming that the knob 420 has been fully unlocked, the knob lifting part 2221 drives the knob rotation part 2222 to rise and reset.
[0050] The motion platform 240 then moves the latch opening and closing mechanism 223 to the starting position of the Socket latch 410. The latch lifting part 2231 drives the latch pressing part 2232 to descend. The roller contacts the surface of the latch 410 and applies pressing force. The motion platform 240 moves horizontally along the lever direction of the latch 410. The roller rolls the latch 410 to push it from the locked position to the open position. The cover of the Socket 400 automatically flips open after the latch 410 is opened. The latch lifting part 2231 drives the latch pressing part 2232 to rise and reset.
[0051] The motion platform 240 moves the device pick-up and place mechanism 221 above the pick-up / feed area 233 of the tray feeding / receiving mechanism 230. The CCD component 224 identifies the position of the device in the tray 234. The suction head of the device gripping part 2212 aligns with the device according to the identification result. The pick-up and place lifting part 2211 drives the device gripping part 2212 to descend. After the suction head contacts the device, vacuum negative pressure is activated to complete the adsorption. The pick-up and place lifting part 2211 drives the device gripping part 2212 to rise and remove the device from the tray 234.
[0052] The motion platform 240 moves the device pick-and-place mechanism 221 to directly above the Socket 400. The CCD component 224 confirms the position of the Socket 400 cavity. The pick-and-place lifting unit 2211 drives the device gripping unit 2212 to descend, accurately placing the device into the cavity of the Socket 400. The suction head releases the vacuum negative pressure to complete the device placement. The pick-and-place lifting unit 2211 drives the device gripping unit 2212 to rise and reset. If the Socket 400 needs to hold multiple devices, the device pick-and-place mechanism 221 repeats the above picking and placing actions until the cavity of the Socket 400 is full of devices.
[0053] After a single Socket 400 completes device placement, the motion platform 240 moves the latch opening and closing mechanism 223 to the position of the Socket latch 410 again. The latch lifting part 2231 drives the latch pressing part 2232 to descend, and the roller pushes the latch 410 from the open position to the locked position through the rolling action. The cover of the Socket 400 closes after the latch 410 is locked, and the latch lifting part 2231 drives the latch pressing part 2232 to rise and reset.
[0054] The motion platform 240 moves the knob rotation mechanism 222 to directly above the Socket knob 420. The knob lifting part 2221 drives the knob rotation part 2222 to descend, and the straight insert is inserted into the straight slot 421 of the knob 420. The rotary motor of the knob rotation part 2222 starts and rotates to a preset angle to lock the knob 420. During the rotation, the rotation torque is monitored in real time. When the torque reaches the preset locking torque value, the rotation stops to ensure a reliable connection between the device pin and the Socket contact. The knob lifting part 2221 drives the knob rotation part 2222 to rise and reset, thus completing the complete loading operation of the Socket 400.
[0055] The execution component 220 repeats the above-mentioned operation process of unlocking the knob, opening the latch, placing the device, locking the latch, and tightening the knob on the remaining Socket 400 on the aging board 300 in sequence according to the operation path until all Socket 400 on the entire aging board 300 are loaded. During the continuous operation of multiple Socket 400, the movement path of the motion platform 240 is optimized to reduce idle movement time. Some operations can be performed in parallel to improve efficiency. For example, while placing a device on a Socket 400, the CCD component 224 can confirm the position of the next Socket 400.
[0056] After the entire aging board 300 is loaded, the positioning component 213 of the positioning mechanism 210 is activated, the lifting drive component 2131 drives the fixing plate 2132 to descend, the first baffle 2133 and the second baffle 2134 release their limiting effect on the aging board 300, and the aging board 300 descends to the support surface of the moving channel 211. The push-pull plate 2142 of the push-pull component 214 rises, and the push-pull drive component 2141 drives the push-pull plate 2142 to push backward, pushing the aging board 300 back from the loading / unloading position 212 to the moving channel 211. The aging board conveying mechanism 100 pushes the aging board 300 from the moving channel 211 back to the material frame 110. The lifting platform 130 cooperates with the descent of the material frame 110 to receive the recycled aging board 300. The lifting platform 130 then raises the material frame 110, and the pushing mechanism pushes the next aging board 300 to be loaded into the moving channel 211. The above operations of feeding, positioning, knob unlocking, buckle opening, device placement, buckle locking, and knob tightening are repeated to realize the automated loading operation of multiple aging boards 300 continuously.
[0057] The unloading process and loading process of the equipment are similar in operation logic, but the device transfer direction is opposite. First, the aging board 300 that has completed the aging test is loaded by the material frame 110 in the aging board conveying mechanism 100. The Socket 400 on these aging boards 300 is in a full state. The conveyor chain 120 transports the material frame 110 to the lifting platform 130. The lifting platform 130 raises the material frame 110 so that the uppermost aging board 300 is aligned with the pushing height of the pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism pushes the aging boards 300 one by one to the moving channel 211.
[0058] The push-pull component 214 of the positioning mechanism 210 pushes the aging board 300 from the moving channel 211 into the material pick-up and drop-off position 212. The positioning component 213, through the cooperation of the lifting fixing plate 2132 and the first baffle 2133 and the second baffle 2134, precisely positions and fixes the aging board 300. The CCD component 224 scans and identifies the Socket 400 on the aging board 300, obtains the position information of each Socket 400, and generates the material unloading operation path.
[0059] The execution component 220 begins the unloading operation of the first Socket 400. The motion platform 240 first moves the knob rotation mechanism 222 to directly above the Socket knob 420. The knob lifting part 2221 drives the knob rotation part 2222 to descend. The straight insert is inserted into the straight slot 421 of the knob 420. The knob rotation part 2222 rotates a preset angle to unlock the knob 420. The knob lifting part 2221 drives the knob rotation part 2222 to rise and reset.
[0060] The motion platform 240 moves the latch opening and closing mechanism 223 to the position of the Socket latch 410. The latch lifting part 2231 drives the latch pressing part 2232 to descend. The roller pushes the latch 410 from the locked position to the open position through the rolling action. The cover of the Socket 400 is opened, and the latch lifting part 2231 drives the latch pressing part 2232 to rise and reset.
[0061] The motion platform 240 moves the device pick-and-place mechanism 221 directly above the Socket 400. The CCD component 224 identifies the position of the device in the cavity of the Socket 400. The suction head of the device gripping part 2212 is aligned with the device. The pick-and-place lifting part 2211 drives the device gripping part 2212 to descend. After the suction head contacts the device, a vacuum negative pressure is activated to complete the adsorption. The pick-and-place lifting part 2211 drives the device gripping part 2212 to rise and remove the device from the Socket 400.
[0062] The motion platform 240 moves the device pick-up and place mechanism 221 above the pick-up / feed area 233 of the tray feeding / receiving mechanism 230. The pick-up and place lifting part 2211 drives the device gripping part 2212 to descend and place the device in the designated position of the tray 234. The suction head releases the vacuum negative pressure to complete the device placement. The pick-up and place lifting part 2211 drives the device gripping part 2212 to rise and reset. If there are multiple devices in the Socket 400, the device pick-up and place mechanism 221 repeats the above pick-up and place-up actions until all devices in the cavity of the Socket 400 are removed.
[0063] After a single Socket 400 device is removed, the motion platform 240 moves the latch opening and closing mechanism 223 to the position of the Socket latch 410. The latch lifting part 2231 drives the latch pressing part 2232 to descend, and the roller pushes the latch 410 from the open position to the locked position. The cover of the Socket 400 closes, and the latch lifting part 2231 drives the latch pressing part 2232 to rise and reset.
[0064] The motion platform 240 moves the knob rotation mechanism 222 to directly above the Socket knob 420. The knob lifting part 2221 drives the knob rotation part 2222 to descend, and the straight insert is inserted into the straight slot 421 of the knob 420. The knob rotation part 2222 rotates to a preset angle to lock the knob 420. The knob lifting part 2221 drives the knob rotation part 2222 to rise and reset, thus completing the complete unloading operation of the Socket 400.
[0065] The execution component 220 repeats the above-mentioned operation process of unlocking the knob, opening the latch, taking out the device, locking the latch and tightening the knob on the remaining Socket 400 on the aging board 300 in sequence according to the operation path until all Socket 400 of the entire aging board 300 is unloaded. The devices taken out from the Socket 400 are placed on the tray 234 of the tray feeding / receiving mechanism 230 in sequence. When the tray 234 is full, it is moved to the lower tray area 232 for storage. The empty tray 234 is sent to the picking / feeding area 233 to continue to receive unloaded devices.
[0066] After the entire aging board 300 is unloaded, the positioning mechanism 210 releases its fixation on the aging board 300, the push-pull assembly 214 pushes the aging board 300 back to the moving channel 211, and the push plate mechanism of the aging board conveying mechanism 100 pushes the aging board 300 back to the material frame 110. The lifting platform 130, in coordination with the lifting of the material frame 110, sends in the next aged aging board 300. The above operations of board feeding, positioning, knob unlocking, buckle opening, component removal, buckle locking, and knob tightening are repeated to realize the automated unloading operation of multiple aging boards 300 continuously.
