Fig. 1 is a schematic top view of a component handling apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, with some components not shown. The component handling apparatus 100 may pack the component 200 into the receiving slot 320 in the carrier tape 300. The component 200 may be a small passive component such as a chip. Before packing components 200 into the accommodating groove 320 in the carrier tape 300, the component processing apparatus 100 can also perform electrical performance detection on the components 200, and the component processing apparatus 100 also needs to eliminate the components 200 with abnormal detection and keep detecting normal components.

As shown in fig. 1 to 4, the component processing apparatus 100 includes a machine table 180, a turntable 120 disposed on the machine table 180, a feeding portion 110, a discharging portion 130, an implanting portion 140, and a detecting device (not shown).

For simplicity, only a few grooves 121 are shown in fig. 1 as an example provided on the edge of a portion of the turntable 120, and in practice, the grooves 121 are provided uniformly on all edge portions of the turntable 120.

Fig. 2 is a schematic enlarged side view of a part of the structure of the component processing apparatus 100 in fig. 1, in which only the relevant part of the structure of the material inlet 110 is schematically shown. Fig. 5 is a schematic view of a gas passage structure of the component processing apparatus in fig. 1. As shown in fig. 1, 2 and 5, the feeding portion 110 includes a feeding vacuum nozzle 111 disposed on the machine platform 180, a feeding rail 113 disposed on the machine platform 180, a separating needle 112 and a positioning detector 114. The implantation vacuum nozzle 111 is in communication with a vacuum pump 151 (shown in FIG. 5) via a conduit. The separator pin 112 is controlled to move between a blocking position and an open position. The component 200 on the feeding track 113 is blocked when the separating pin 112 is in the blocking position, as shown in fig. 2, when the separating pin 112 is in the blocking position. When the separating pin 112 is in the open position, the top end of the separating pin 112 is lower than or equal to the track surface of the feeding track 113, the feeding vacuum nozzle 111 sucks the component 200 on the feeding track 113 into the groove 121 at the feeding vacuum nozzle 111 through vacuum suction, and then the separating pin 112 returns to the blocking position from the normally open position. The docking detector 114 is configured to detect whether the component 200 enters the recess 121 at the feeding vacuum nozzle 111. When the turntable 120 rotates, the grooves 121 of the turntable 120 sequentially pass through the feeding vacuum suction nozzle 111, and are matched with the reciprocating motion of the separating needle 112 between the blocking position and the opening position, so that the components 200 are adsorbed into the grooves 121 of the turntable 120 one by one.

With the rotation of the turntable 120, the detection device can sequentially perform electrical performance detection, such as resistance detection or capacitance detection, on the components 200 adsorbed into the grooves 121 of the turntable 120. For the components 200 that are detected to be abnormal to be excluded from the turntable 120, the bin 130 may be configured to perform the operation of excluding the components 200 that are detected to be abnormal. Of course, the placement unit 130 does not perform the removal operation for the component 200 whose inspection is normal, and it is necessary to suck the component 200 whose inspection is normal.

Fig. 3 is a side-view enlarged schematic diagram of a partial structure of the component processing apparatus 100 in fig. 1, in which only a relevant partial structure of the discharging portion 130 is schematically illustrated.

The discharge vacuum nozzle 131 is controlled to selectively communicate with one of the vacuum pump 151 and the evacuation pump 135 via a solenoid valve 133.

For the component 200 with normal detection, the electromagnetic valve 133 enables the discharge vacuum nozzle 131 to communicate with the vacuum pump 151, and the discharge vacuum nozzle 131 adsorbs the component with normal detection in the groove 121 at the discharge vacuum nozzle 131 through vacuum suction. For the abnormal component 200, the electromagnetic valve 133 makes the discharge vacuum nozzle 131 communicate with the air outlet pump 135, the discharge vacuum nozzle 131 blows the abnormal component 200 out of the groove 121 at the discharge vacuum nozzle 131 by the blowing thrust, and the blown component 200 falls into the receiving cavity 132. With the rotation of the turntable 120, the grooves 121 on the edge of the turntable 120 sequentially pass through the discharging vacuum nozzles 131 of the discharging unit 130, and the components 200 detected normally can be retained and the components 200 detected abnormally can be removed by cooperating with the action control of the electromagnetic valve 133.

As shown in fig. 6, in an embodiment, the component processing apparatus 100 may further include: and a communication module 170 for communicating with an upper computer (not shown). The upper computer may be a computer device communicating with the component processing apparatus 100. The communication module 170 may be a wired or wireless module, such as a Wifi wireless communication module, a bluetooth wireless communication module, a USB communication module, an RS485 module, and the like. In one embodiment, the communication module 170 is configured to receive an upper limit range and/or a lower limit range corresponding to each flow meter transmitted by the upper computer.

In one embodiment, the upper computer may generate and update the upper limit range and/or the lower limit range corresponding to each flow meter based on the total flow value of the vacuum pump 151, the equipment type of the component processing apparatus 100, and the component type transmitted by the communication module 170. The upper limit range and/or the lower limit range corresponding to each flow meter are set in association with the total flow rate value of the vacuum pump 151, the type of equipment of the component processing apparatus 100, and the type of component, and it is necessary to combine these factors to set the upper limit range and/or the lower limit range corresponding to each flow meter appropriately. Of course, other factors may be associated with the setting of the upper and/or lower range for each flow meter, and other factors may need to be considered. Of course, in another embodiment, the upper limit range and/or the lower limit range corresponding to each flow meter may also be directly set on the component processing apparatus 100.

In addition, the upper limit range and/or the lower limit range corresponding to each flow meter of the same component processing apparatus 100 are not constant, and they may vary depending on the use of the equipment. Therefore, the upper computer may recalculate the upper limit range and/or the lower limit range corresponding to each flow meter periodically or according to a request, and update the parameters into the component processing apparatus 100.

Preferably, the upper computer may be connected to an artificial intelligence module (AI), and the artificial intelligence module may generate and update an upper limit range and/or a lower limit range corresponding to each flow meter according to production record data of one or more component processing apparatuses 100. The production log data includes real-time measurement values measured by the respective flowmeters during the production process, the type of the component, the type of the equipment of the component processing apparatus 100, and the like. One part of the real-time measured values is a high value, namely the flow value obtained by each path of flow meter in a material-free state, and the other part of the real-time measured values is a low value, namely the flow value obtained by each path of flow meter in a material state. The upper limit range of each flowmeter can be accurately obtained by counting the value range of the high position in the real-time measurement value, and the lower limit range of each flowmeter can be accurately obtained by counting the value range of the low position in the real-time measurement value. And the upper computer is communicated with the artificial intelligence module to obtain the upper limit range and/or the lower limit range of each flowmeter.

The upper computer determines whether to allow the component handling apparatus 100 to normally operate (or be referred to as normal operation) based on the total flow value of the vacuum pump 151 transmitted by the communication module 170 and the total flow value limit value obtained by the fourth flow meter 153.

The upper limit range comprises a highest upper limit value and a lowest upper limit value, if the flow value is between the highest upper limit value and the lowest upper limit value, the flow value is considered to be in the upper limit range, if the flow value is higher than the highest upper limit value, the flow value is considered to be higher than or exceed the upper limit range, and if the flow value is lower than the lowest upper limit value, the flow value is considered to be lower than the upper limit range. Likewise, the lower limit range includes a highest lower limit value and a lowest lower limit value, and if the flow value is between the highest lower limit value and the lowest lower limit value, the flow value is considered to be within the lower limit range, if the flow value is higher than the highest lower limit value, the flow value is considered to be higher than or exceed the lower limit range, and if the flow value is lower than the lowest lower limit value, the flow value is considered to be lower than the lower limit range. For example, if the lowest limit value is 0, the flow rate value is generally not lower than the lower limit range.

Specifically, the first flow meter 115 is provided with a corresponding upper limit range and/or lower limit range, which is an upper limit range and/or lower limit range of the gas flow rate of the material inlet vacuum nozzle 111, the second flow meter 134 is provided with a corresponding upper limit range and/or lower limit range, which is an upper limit range and/or lower limit range of the gas flow rate of the material outlet vacuum nozzle 131, and the third flow meter 143 is provided with a corresponding upper limit range and/or lower limit range, which is an upper limit range and/or lower limit range of the gas flow rate of the material inlet vacuum nozzle 141. In addition, it should be noted that, for each state of each vacuum suction nozzle, a corresponding upper limit range and/or lower limit range is provided, and the upper limit ranges and/or lower limit ranges corresponding to different states may be different or may be the same.

In the invention, the real-time measurement values of the flow meters are collected, so that technical support can be provided for subsequent more accurate analysis, and rich information contained in the real-time measurement values of the flow meters can be extracted. Because the corresponding upper limit range and/or lower limit range is set for the flow value of each flowmeter, the abnormal conditions of various flow values can be distinguished more clearly, so that the reason of the abnormal conditions can be analyzed, the fault removal help is provided for users, the specific conditions of the normal conditions of the flow values can be known, and the health condition of corresponding machine equipment can be evaluated.

The vacuum management scheme employed by the control device 160 is described in detail below.

1) Vacuum management with respect to the feed section 110

When the feeding portion 110 is in a continuous material-free state, if the acquired real-time flow value of the feeding vacuum nozzle 111 is lower than the corresponding upper limit range, the control device 160 determines that the feeding portion vacuum is abnormal. For the first feeding portion vacuum abnormality, the control device 160 may prompt the abnormality cause: one or more of insufficient vacuum of the feeding part 110, blockage of the feeding vacuum suction nozzle 111, blockage of a pipeline of the feeding part 110 and air leakage of a pipeline in front of a flow meter of the feeding part 110. When the feeding portion 110 is in a continuous material-free state, if the collected real-time flow value of the feeding vacuum nozzle 111 is higher than the corresponding upper limit range, the control device 160 determines that the feeding portion vacuum is abnormal of the second type. For the second feeding portion vacuum anomaly, the control device 160 may prompt the anomaly cause as follows: the feeding portion 110 is over-vacuumed.

And under the condition that the feeding part 110 is in a material-existence alternative conversion state, if the high value of the acquired real-time flow value of the feeding vacuum suction nozzle 111 is in the corresponding upper limit range, and the low value of the acquired real-time flow value of the feeding vacuum suction nozzle 111 is higher than the corresponding lower limit range, determining that the feeding part is in vacuum abnormity. For the third vacuum anomaly of the feeding portion, the control device 160 may prompt the anomaly cause: and the rear pipeline of the flow meter of the feeding part leaks air.

The continuous material-free state of the feeding part is provided with a corresponding upper limit range, the material-free state of the feeding part is provided with a corresponding upper limit range and a corresponding lower limit range, and the material-free state of the feeding part is alternately switched to the material-free state of the feeding part, wherein the upper limit range of the continuous material-free state of the feeding part is different from the upper limit range of the material-free state of the feeding part.

Therefore, the user can be helped to quickly find out the fault reason of vacuum abnormity of the feeding part, and the efficiency is improved. In addition, even if the real-time flow value of the feeding part is in the corresponding upper limit range or lower limit range, and the feeding part is normal in vacuum, the health condition of the feeding vacuum suction nozzle 111 of the feeding part can be evaluated according to the real-time flow value of the specific feeding part, and a prompt can be given when the health condition deteriorates to a certain threshold value, so as to avoid abnormal conditions.

The control device 160 is further configured to collect one or more of a rotation signal of the turntable 120, an implanting signal of the implanting portion 140, a feeding signal of the feeding portion 110, and a discharging signal of the discharging portion 130. The feeding motion signal of the feeding portion 110 may include a motion signal of the separation pin 112 of the feeding portion 110 and/or a detection signal of the seating detector 114. The implant operation signal of the implant part 140 may include an operation signal of the implant driving part 142 of the implant part 140. The discharging operation signal of the discharging unit 130 may include a switching signal of the solenoid valve 133 of the discharging unit 130.

The control device 160 can determine whether the feeding portion 110 is in a continuous material-free state and a material-free alternate switching state based on the collected feeding action signal of the feeding portion 110 and/or the collected real-time flow value of the feeding vacuum nozzle 111. Of course, the control device 160 may also determine the state of the material feeding portion 110 according to the rotation signal of the turntable 120.

In one embodiment, the control device 160 can determine that the material feeding portion 110 is in the continuous material-free state when the material feeding portion 110 has no action signal continuously and the collected real-time flow value of the material feeding vacuum nozzle 111 is continuously at the high value continuously for a continuous period of time. When the collected real-time flow value of the feeding vacuum nozzle 111 is alternatively switched between a high value and a low value in cooperation with the collected action signal of the feeding portion 110, the control device 160 may determine that the feeding portion 110 is in a material-presence/absence alternative switching state.

2) Vacuum management for discharge section 130

When the discharging portion 130 is in a continuous material-free state, if the collected real-time flow value of the discharging vacuum nozzle 131 is lower than the corresponding upper limit range, the control device 160 determines that the first discharging portion vacuum is abnormal. For the first discharge portion vacuum anomaly, the control device 160 may indicate the anomaly reason: one or more of insufficient vacuum of the discharge part, blockage of a discharge vacuum suction nozzle, blockage of a pipeline of the discharge part and air leakage of a pipeline in front of a flowmeter of the discharge part.

If the collected real-time flow value of the discharge vacuum nozzle is higher than the corresponding upper limit range under the continuous material-free state of the discharge part, the control device 160 determines that the second type of discharge part vacuum is abnormal. For the second discharging portion vacuum abnormality, the control device 160 may prompt that the abnormality is caused by: one or more of excessive vacuum of the discharging part 130 and air leakage of the rear pipeline of the flowmeter of the discharging part 130

When the discharge part is in a state of material existence and material nonexistence, if the high value and the low value of the collected real-time flow value of the discharge vacuum nozzle are converted too slowly, the control device 160 determines that the third discharge part is abnormal in vacuum. For the third discharging portion vacuum abnormality, the control device 160 may prompt that the abnormality is caused by: one or more of the solenoid valve 133 of the discharge portion 130 is aged and the discharge vacuum nozzle 131 of the discharge portion 130 is clogged.

Wherein, a corresponding upper limit range is set for the continuous material-free state of the discharging part 130.

Therefore, the user can be helped to quickly find out the fault reason of the empty abnormity of the discharging part 130, and the efficiency is improved. In addition, even if the real-time flow value of the discharging part 130 is within the corresponding upper limit range, and the discharging part 130 is normally vacuumized, the health condition of the discharging vacuum suction nozzle of the discharging part 130 can be evaluated according to the real-time flow value of the discharging part 130, and a prompt can be given when the health condition deteriorates to a certain threshold value, so as to avoid abnormal occurrence.

The control device 160 may determine whether the discharging portion 130 is in the continuous material-free state and the material-free state based on the collected discharging action signal of the discharging portion 130 and/or the collected real-time flow value of the discharging vacuum nozzle 131. The control device 160 may also determine the state of the discharging unit 130 in combination with a rotation operation signal of the turntable 120.

In one embodiment, when the discharge portion 130 continues to have no operation signal and the collected real-time flow value of the discharge vacuum nozzle 131 continues to be at the high value for a continuous period of time, the control device 160 may determine that the discharge portion 130 is in the continuous material-free state; when the collected real-time flow value of the discharge vacuum nozzle 131 is matched with the collected action signal of the discharge part 130 and is switched from a low value to a high value, the discharge part 130 is judged to be in a material-existing state and is switched to a material-nonexisting state.

3) Vacuum management with respect to implant 140

In the continuous no-material state of the implant 140, the control device 160 may determine that the implant vacuum is abnormal of a first type if the real-time flow value of the implant vacuum nozzle 141 is collected below a corresponding upper range. For the first implant vacuum abnormality, the control device 160 may indicate the abnormality cause: one or more of insufficient vacuum in the implant, an occlusion of the implant vacuum nozzle, an occlusion of the conduit of the implant, and an air leak in the conduit prior to the flow meter of the implant.

In the material-filled/material-free alternate switching state of the implant 140, if the acquired high value of the real-time flow value of the implant vacuum nozzle 141 is within the corresponding upper limit range and the acquired low value of the real-time flow value of the implant vacuum nozzle 141 is higher than the corresponding lower limit range, the control device 160 may determine that the implant vacuum is abnormal of a second type. For the second type of implant vacuum anomaly, the control device 160 may indicate the anomaly cause: one or more of a breakage of the implanted vacuum nozzle, a wear of the implanted vacuum nozzle, and a leakage of air from the conduit behind the flow meter of the implanted portion.

And under the condition that the implantation part 140 is in a material-free alternate conversion state, if the high value of the acquired real-time flow value of the implantation vacuum suction nozzle 141 is in the corresponding upper limit range, and the low value of the acquired real-time flow value of the implantation vacuum suction nozzle 141 is in the corresponding lower limit range but is close to the upper limit value of the corresponding lower limit range and regularly fluctuates, determining that the implantation part is in a third implantation part vacuum anomaly. For a third type of implant vacuum anomaly, the control device 160 may indicate the anomaly cause: one or more of a half-occlusion of the implanted vacuum nozzle 141, and a single-hole occlusion of the implanted vacuum nozzle 141.

When the implanting part 140 is in the material-filled/material-free alternate switching state, if the high value of the acquired real-time flow value of the implanting vacuum nozzle 141 is within the corresponding upper limit range, and the low value of the acquired real-time flow value of the implanting vacuum nozzle 141 is within the corresponding lower limit range and fluctuates irregularly, the control device 160 may determine that the fourth implanting part is abnormal in vacuum. For the fourth implantation vacuum anomaly, the control device 160 may indicate the anomaly reason: the size of the component is abnormal.

In the event of a fourth implantation vacuum anomaly, the control device 160 can determine the non-standard rate of the components 200 according to the collected real-time flow values of the implantation vacuum nozzles 111 of a predetermined number of components (e.g., 100 or other numbers).

The control device 160 may determine whether the implant 140 is in the continuous material-free state and the material-free alternate transition state based on the collected implant motion signal of the implant 140 and/or the collected real-time flow value of the implant vacuum nozzle 141. The control device 160 can also determine the state of the implantation portion 140 in combination with the rotation signal of the turntable 120.

In one embodiment, the control device 160 may determine that the implant 140 is in the material-free state when the implant 140 continues to have no motion signal and the collected real-time flow value of the implant vacuum nozzle 141 continues to be at the high value for a continuous period of time; when the collected real-time flow value of the implanted vacuum nozzle 141 is alternately switched between a high value and a low value in cooperation with the collected action signal of the implanted part 140, the control device 160 may determine that the implanted part is in a material-to-material alternate switching state.

Wherein, a corresponding upper limit range is set for the continuous material-free state of the implantation part 140, and a corresponding upper limit range and a corresponding lower limit range are set for the material-free and material-free alternating conversion state of the implantation part 140, wherein the upper limit range of the continuous material-free state and the upper limit range of the material-free and material-free alternating conversion state of the implantation part 140 are different.

This helps the user to quickly find the cause of the failure of the vacuum abnormality of the implant 140, thereby improving efficiency. In addition, even if the real-time flow value of the implant part 140 is within the corresponding upper limit range or lower limit range, and the vacuum of the implant part 140 is normal, the health condition of the implant vacuum nozzle of the implant part 140 can be evaluated according to the real-time flow value of the specific implant part 140, and a prompt is given when the health condition deteriorates to a certain threshold value, so as to avoid the generation of abnormality.

In one embodiment, the control device 160 may report the vacuum abnormal conditions of the material inlet portion 110, the material discharge portion 130 and the implantation portion 140 to an upper computer, and the upper computer displays, prompts or alarms. Of course, the component processing apparatus 100 may prompt itself, specifically, the component processing apparatus may prompt through a self-configured display screen, or may display the component processing apparatus through a related indicator light.

Therefore, by combining the real-time flow value acquired by the flowmeter and the action signals of all the action parts, the working conditions of all the vacuum suction nozzles, including abnormal conditions and normal conditions, can be analyzed very accurately. For abnormal conditions, abnormal reason analysis and prompt can be carried out, and for normal conditions, health conditions can be evaluated, and abnormal hidden dangers can be discovered in time.

When arranging the material position and having the material, the material surface can absorb optical signal's energy, and optical signal weakens, and the signal intensity that the optical fiber receiving head received weakens, then controlling means can compare the optical signal who obtains with lower limit scope to judge that it still has material or residue foreign matter etc. to arrange the material position, when arranging material position and not having material or residue foreign matter, optical signal's intensity can not be cut down or cut down the degree and be less than the degree of cutting down on material surface far away, then control system can judge that it does not have foreign matter such as material to arrange the material position this moment.

In one embodiment, if the control device determines that the abnormal component is not discharged after comparing the optical signal obtained from the photoelectric sensor with the lower limit range after the down-regulation, the control device controls the apparatus to stop. If the lower limit range corresponding to the photoelectric sensor is adjusted downwards to a preset value, the detection problem cannot be eliminated, the lower limit range of the photoelectric sensor is adjusted downwards by a certain value in a reasonable range, if the detection problem cannot be eliminated, equipment faults possibly occur, and the discharging part needs to be overhauled and debugged.

Example 3:

with reference to the foregoing embodiment 1 and embodiment 2, the present invention provides a discharge portion monitoring and control system, and based on the foregoing embodiment, the present invention further provides an automatic material packaging apparatus.

Referring to fig. 7, a flow chart of a material handling process is shown, and a packaging process of the automatic material packaging apparatus according to the present invention can be described with reference to fig. 7, where the material packaged in the automatic material packaging apparatus may include various components, and in an embodiment, the material may be used as an instructional work flow chart of a component handling process. The following explains the flowchart shown in fig. 7:

the flowchart shown in fig. 7 can be divided into the following processes: process 1: obtaining a carrier tape for packaging the components through a carrier tape feeding device; step 2, feeding the components through a component feeding device; and (3) a process: implanting components into the carrier tape by a component processing device; and 4, process 4: and packaging the carrier tape implanted with the components through the material packaging device. The sequence of the process 1 and the process 2 is not sequential, and generally, the process 1 and the process 2 are parallel for the production efficiency. One or more detection procedures can be set in the process 1, the process 2 or the process 3 according to the requirements, and the detection procedures are mainly used for detecting the appearance and the electrical performance of the components. Of course, the detection process cannot be set in the process 4, and the defects can be controlled at the front end of production only by detection before packaging, so that the error correction cost is reduced, and the production efficiency is improved.

In one embodiment, process 1 requires that the carrier tape for packaging the components (which can be purchased directly under the support of the budget of production cost) is made by matching the master tape and the lower tape, and the carrier tape has accommodating slots for accommodating the components.

In one embodiment, the process 3 is to implant the components into the storage grooves of the carrier tape one by one, before or after the implantation, the components can be subjected to appearance detection and electrical performance detection, the defects detected before the implantation can be directly discharged, and the defects detected after the implantation can be taken out of the storage grooves.

In an embodiment, the process 4 is to package the carrier tape into which the component is implanted, at this time, a tape can be provided, the carrier tape is packaged by the tape, and the finished product tape is obtained after the packaging is completed.

In order to improve the efficiency of material packaging, automation equipment for each operation step can be developed by starting from the four processing procedures, so that the automation of the operation step is realized. Further, it is necessary to develop a suitable sub-device or mechanism for the sub-step in each step to automate the sub-step. For example, for process 1, since the process includes three sub-steps of supplying a master tape, supplying a lower tape, attaching a lower tape, and the like, it may be necessary to develop three sub-devices or mechanisms for the above three sub-steps. Of course, these automation devices for the individual steps can also be integrated in order to achieve full process automation of the material encapsulation.
