Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of an application of the suction head provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the bottom of the suction head 21 is in a conical structure, the bottom of the suction head 21 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 211 matched with the needle bar 110 of the cantilever probe 100, two ends of the arc-shaped groove 211 extend along a straight line and penetrate through the suction head 21, the suction head 21 is internally provided with a suction channel 212, the suction channel 212 is communicated with the arc-shaped groove 211, the bottom of the needle pressing block 22 is used for abutting against the outer wall of the needle bar 110 of the cantilever probe 100, the suction head 21 and the needle pressing block 22 are arranged on the output end of the swinging table 23 at intervals to swing and adjust the inclination angles of the suction head 21, the needle pressing block 22 and the horizontal plane, the needle pressing block 22 is located between the suction head 21 and the needle tip 120 of the cantilever probe 100, and the transferring unit 1 is used for driving the swinging table 23 to translate and lift in space.
In the transferring device for the cantilever probe provided by the embodiment of the invention, in the transferring process of the cantilever probe 100, firstly, the pin assembly 2 is driven by the transferring unit 1 to horizontally move to the position right above the cantilever probe 100 in the needle dial. Then, the transfer unit 1 drives the pin assembly 2 to be horizontally lowered so that the arc-shaped grooves 211 are matched with the needle bars 110 of the corresponding cantilever probes 100 (the arc-shaped grooves 211 are equal in diameter to the needle bars 110). Next, the suction device is activated, and the suction channel 212 is evacuated, so that the cantilever probe 100 is sucked into the arc-shaped recess 211. Then, according to the position of the cantilever probe 100 on the probe card, the inclination angle of the cantilever needle bar 110 is determined, so that the adsorption head 21 and the needle pressing block 22 are swung to a proper angle through the swing table 23, and the inclination angle of the needle bar 110 of the cantilever probe 100 (i.e. the included angle between the needle bar 110 and the horizontal plane) is consistent with the inclination angle during the needle insertion, thereby realizing the regulation and control of the inclination angle of the needle bar 110 (i.e. the inclination angle alpha of the arc-shaped groove 211). Then, the transfer unit 1 drives the pin assembly 2 to move horizontally and descend, at this time, the tip 120 of the cantilever probe 100 is inserted into the positioning hole on the positioning film of the tip 120, and one end of the needle bar 110 is adsorbed and fixed, and the other end close to the tip 120 is pressed with the needle bar 110 downward through the pressing pin block 22, so that the connection position of the tip 120 corresponding to the tip 120 on the needle bar 110 is not easy to bend in the inserting process. In addition, the needle bar 110 of the cantilever probe 100 is placed on the inclined surface of the inclined wedge or the double-sided adhesive tape, so that the inclined arrangement of the needle bar 110 is completed, and the automatic transfer of the cantilever probe 100 is realized.
That is, the transfer device for the cantilever probe provided by the embodiment of the invention not only can realize automatic transfer of the cantilever probe 100, but also can regulate and control the inclination angle of the needle bar 110, and the connection position of the needle bar 110 corresponding to the needle bar 120 is not easy to bend in the inserting process of the needle bar 120.
It will be readily appreciated that the tilt angle of the pins 110 of each cantilever-probe 100 on a cantilever-probe card is 10-15 deg., the tilt angles of the cantilever-probes 100 of each layer remain the same, while the tilt angles of the pins 110 of the cantilever-probes 100 of different layers are different. In the automatic transferring process of the cantilever probes 100 through the transferring device, the inclined angle of the needle bar 110 of each cantilever probe 100 can be conveniently and conveniently adjusted through the swinging table 23, and the precision and the reliability are higher.
Illustratively, the bottom of the suction head 21 is a tapered wedge, and the bottom surface thereof has a minimum dimension and diameter, which is not only convenient for processing the arc-shaped groove 211, but also can effectively avoid the interference of the bottom surface of the suction head 21 to other cantilever probes 100 during the transferring process. In addition, the cross section of the arc-shaped groove 211 may be a semicircular groove, increasing the contact area with the cantilever probe 100, thereby improving the stability of transportation.
Illustratively, the rotation center of the swing table 23 may be the junction of the needle bar 110 and the needle tip 120, so that the height of the needle bar 110 is not adjusted when the inclination angle of the needle bar 110 is adjusted, thereby controlling the consistency of the descending height of the needle bar 110 during the needle insertion without changing the stroke.
It should be noted that, one end of the needle rod 110 of the cantilever probe 100 is fixedly connected to one end of the needle tip 120, and the two forms a certain included angle.
The transfer device also comprises a mounting base 14, the output end of the transfer unit 1 is in transmission connection with the mounting base 14, and a swing table 23 is arranged on the mounting base 14. The bottom surface of the needle pressing block 22 may be an arc surface, and may be reliably contacted with the needle bar 110.
Referring again to fig. 3, the pin assembly 2 further includes a buffer member 24, the buffer member 24 includes a fixing plate 241, a buffer plate 242 and a spring, the fixing plate 241 is located at an output end of the swing table 23, the buffer plate 242 is slidably matched with the fixing plate 241 in a vertical direction, the spring is vertically clamped between the fixing plate 241 and the buffer plate 242, and the adsorption head 21 and the pin pressing block 22 are located on the buffer plate 242.

Illustratively, when the suction head 21 and the presser finger 22 are in contact with the cantilever probe 100, the spring is gradually compressed, and the fixing plate 241 allows the continued downward movement, so that the buffer plate 242, the suction head 21 and the presser finger 22 do not generate a large downward force to bend the cantilever probe 100.
Illustratively, the suction head 21 is mounted on the buffer plate 242 through the connection block 25. In addition, the buffer plate 242 may have a height adjusting sliding table 26 thereon, where the height adjusting sliding table 26 is used to adjust the height of the needle pressing block 22 in the vertical direction, and the bottom surface of the needle pressing block 22 can just contact the needle bar 110 at the same time after the needle bar 110 is adsorbed, so as to implement pre-pressing of the needle bar 110, thereby reducing the requirement of direct installation precision of the needle pressing block 22.
Further, the fixing plate 241 is provided with a sliding rail 2411 arranged vertically, the buffer plate 242 is provided with a sliding block 2421, and the sliding block 2421 is in sliding fit with the sliding rail 2411.

In addition, the buffer member 24 further includes a guide rod fixed to the fixing plate 241, the buffer plate 242 has a guide hole, one end of the guide rod is movably inserted into the guide hole, and the spring is sleeved on the guide rod.
It is easy to understand that the guide rod can play a role in guiding the compression of the spring, so that the problem that the spring is misplaced or distorted in the compression process is avoided.
