The present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the present invention provides an embodiment of a material management apparatus 1. The material management device 1 contains a plurality of different materials, so that a user can complete material picking and assembling in a one-stop mode, and the material management device 1 also has the function of teaching the user to assemble products. The following description is one by one:

the material management apparatus 1 includes a frame 10, a plurality of containers 11, a display screen 12, an input module 13, a storage unit 14 (shown in fig. 2), and a processing module 15 (shown in fig. 2) electrically connected to the containers 11, the display screen 12, the input module 13, and a conveying module 16.

In the present embodiment, the containers 11 are arranged on the rack 10, the containers 11 are respectively implemented as a plurality of material boxes adapted to accommodate a plurality of different materials, and as shown in fig. 1, the number of the containers 11 in the present embodiment may be, for example, ten, but is not limited thereto.

Referring to fig. 3 and 4, more specifically, each container 11 includes a body 111, a movable cover 112, a light emitting element set 113 disposed on the body 111, and a driving module 117. The body 111 defines a receiving space 114 adapted to receive a material. The cover 112 can be driven by the driving module 117 and can move along the rear direction d shown in fig. 3, so that the container 11 can be switched between the closed state shown in fig. 3 and the open state shown in fig. 4. In this embodiment, the driving module 117 is a pressure cylinder, disposed between the main body 111 and the cover 112, and can be controlled by the processing unit 15 to drive the cover 112 to switch between the closed state and the open state with respect to the main body 111.

Further, as shown in fig. 3, when the container 11 is in the closed state, the cover 112 closes the accommodating space 114, so that a user cannot take the material in the accommodating space 114 from the outside. On the other hand, as shown in fig. 4, when the container 11 is in the open state, the cover 112 opens the accommodating space 114, so that the user can take the material in the accommodating space 114 from the outside. It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the cover 112 may be driven by a motor or other power mechanism, for example, and each container 11 may be implemented in a manner that has a containing space 114 to contain materials, and the shape or structure of the embodiment is not limited.

In this embodiment, the light emitting element group 113 has, for example, three light emitting elements 115 with different colors (e.g., green, yellow, and red), and the light emitting elements 115 can be used to indicate the current working status (e.g., normal, fault, idle, etc.) of the container 11, but not limited thereto.

In addition, referring to fig. 2, in the present embodiment, the input module 13 can be implemented as a keyboard, a plurality of buttons, or a combination thereof, the storage unit 14 can be implemented as a hard disk assembly or other types of data storage, the processing unit 15 can be implemented as a central processing unit, and the storage unit 14 and the processing unit 15 can be computer hosts.

The conveying module 16 is disposed on the frame 10 and located below the container 11, the conveying module 16 is a conveyor belt in this embodiment, and is used for carrying the carrier tray 17, and the conveying module 16 can drive the carrier tray 17 to reciprocate below the container 11.

Referring to fig. 1 and 5, in the present embodiment, the product to be assembled is exemplified by the pcb 1, and the material is exemplified by the component 2 to be assembled on the pcb 1. When the user needs to pick up and assemble the printed circuit board, the user can place the printed circuit board 1 on the tray 17 and start to pick up and assemble the printed circuit board after confirming the specification of the product to be assembled by operating the input module 13 or directly touching the display screen 12.

During operation, each container 11 is controlled to switch to the open state one by one. When the container 11 is switched to the open state, the display screen 12 correspondingly displays the amount of the material to be taken out by the user and the position of the material to be assembled in the product, as shown in fig. 5, after the user finishes taking the amount of the material required in one container 11, the container 11 is switched to the closed state again, here, the number of times that the user's hand is inserted into the accommodating space 114 is detected by the sensing module 116 disposed at the opening position of the body 111 adjacent to the accommodating space 114, so as to sense the amount of the material taken out from the container 11. When the materials are taken to the corresponding amount, the container 11 is switched to the closed state again, and the next container 11 is switched to the open state, so that the user can continuously take the next material, in other words, the containers 11 are opened and closed one by one, the user can only take the materials of a single container 11 and assemble the materials, and the user can open the next container 11 again to take the materials after the assembly is completed.

To facilitate the user's fetching of material, in this embodiment, the containers 11 are all arranged to be inclined downward toward one side of the conveying module 16, facilitating the material to be concentrated in the area inclined downward.

In summary, through the arrangement of the material management apparatus 1, the container 11 of the material management apparatus 1 can be sequentially switched from the closed state to the open state for the user to take the material, and the image displayed by the display screen can cooperate with the container 11 to operatively indicate the position of the material currently taken by the user to the product, so that the material management apparatus 1 can effectively assist the user to obtain the correct material, thereby being beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency of the product, and really achieving the purpose of the utility model.

However, the above embodiments are only examples of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention should not be limited thereto, and all the simple equivalent changes and modifications made according to the claims and the description of the present invention are still included in the scope covered by the present invention.
