With reference to fig. 1 to 6, the installation apparatus provided in this embodiment includes a positioning mechanism 100, a grabbing mechanism 200, a feeding mechanism 300, a transferring mechanism 400, a conveying mechanism 500, a frame 600, and a CCD camera 700, and the connection relationship and the operation principle of the foregoing structures will be described specifically below according to fig. 1 and 6.

In an embodiment, the mounting apparatus is used to mount electronic components to the carrier 800. As an example, the electronic component may be a printed circuit board, and as mentioned in the background of the present application, the carrier 800 may be opened and closed, and for the convenience of the following description, the structure of the carrier 800 will be briefly described. In an embodiment, the carrier 800 is an existing mechanism, which may include a main body formed with a slot portion to accommodate an electronic component such as the aforementioned printed circuit board, and an elastic clip pivotally mounted to the main body and having a side portion formed as a part of the slot portion, such that when the elastic clip is opened, the printed circuit board is allowed to be placed into the slot portion, and when the elastic clip is closed, the printed circuit board is pressed by the elastic clip to be positioned in the slot portion.

Further, the positioning mechanism 100 includes a positioning assembly and an unlocking assembly, both of which are connected to the rack 600, the positioning assembly is provided with a positioning area, the carrier 800 is positioned in the positioning area, and the unlocking assembly applies force to the carrier 800. The positioning area is used for positioning the carrier 800, so that when the carrier 800 is positioned, the unlocking component applies force to the carrier 800 to open the carrier 800, i.e., open the elastic buckle of the carrier 800, and thus, in this state of the carrier 800, the printed circuit board can be allowed to be placed in the groove of the carrier 800.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 shows a schematic view of a top view of a mounting apparatus, a loading mechanism 300 is connected to a rack 600 and is provided with a storage area where electronic components, i.e., printed circuit boards, are stored. The grasping mechanism 200 is connected to the frame 600, and the grasping mechanism 200 grasps the printed circuit board from the feeding mechanism 300 and mounts the printed circuit board to the carrier 800. As such, when the unlocking assembly releases the force applied to the carrier 800, the carrier 800 is closed.

According to the installation equipment that this embodiment provided, for the scheme that utilizes artifical manual installation electronic components among the prior art for electronic components's installation effectiveness improves greatly, and has reduced the occupation to manpower resources.

Further, the positioning assembly may include a conveying member provided to the frame 600, the conveying member conveying the carrier 800 in a predetermined direction, which may be a left-right direction shown in fig. 1 as an example, referring to fig. 1, and will be described in detail in the following description. The positioning assembly may further include a first clamping member and a second clamping member, which respectively abut against two opposite sides of the carrier 800, so as to position the carrier 800.

Specifically, and referring first to fig. 6, fig. 6 shows a schematic view of an isometric view of the positioning mechanism 100. The first clamping member may be formed, for example, as a positioning plate 170, the positioning plate 170 may be provided to a support 160, described below, included in the conveying member, and the positioning plate 170 may be located above the conveying member and horizontally arranged. The second clamping members may be provided to the frame 600, and although not shown because of the shielding of the carrier 800, the second clamping members may be formed as clamping plates, as an example. In an embodiment, the positioning assembly may further comprise a driving member such as a lifting cylinder (not shown in the figures), at least one of the first clamping member and the second clamping member being connected to the lifting cylinder, for example, as an example, an end of a piston rod of the lifting cylinder being connected to a lower end surface of the aforementioned clamping plate.

Specifically, in addition to the clamping plate, the positioning assembly may be further provided with a first mounting plate and a second mounting plate (both not shown in the drawings), which are in turn disposed below the clamping plate. The second mounting panel that is located the bottommost can be used for installing the cylinder body of above-mentioned lift cylinder, and a plurality of linear bearing can be installed to the first mounting panel that is located the centre. The positioning assembly may further include guide rods corresponding to the number of the linear bearings, the upper ends of the guide rods being connected to the clamping plate, and the lower ends thereof penetrating the first mounting plate and being engaged with the linear bearings.

So, when the grip block was driven by lift cylinder, because guide arm and linear bearing's guide effect, the motion of grip block is more steady and accurate, is favorable to carrying out the accurate positioning to carrier 800. In addition, as an example, the upper end surface of the clamping plate may be formed with a plurality of protrusions, and the protrusions may be inserted into holes previously formed in the carrier 800, thereby further increasing the positioning accuracy. Thus, when the clamping plate is driven up, it eventually lifts the carrier 800 on the conveying member off the conveying member and causes the carrier 800 to be clamped between the clamping plate and the positioning plate 170.

Still referring to fig. 6, the conveying member may include a first conveying portion, a second conveying portion, a fitting portion, and a driving portion. Wherein the first conveying part may be formed as a fixed rail 110 and the second conveying part may be formed as a movable rail 120. In an embodiment, the fixed rail 110 may be fixedly disposed on the frame 600, the movable rail 120 may be disposed side by side with the fixed rail 110, and the extending direction of the fixed rail 110 and the movable rail 120 is the predetermined direction, i.e., the direction in which the carrier 800 is conveyed. In an embodiment, the number of the movable rails 120 may be an odd number, preferably at least three, such as three shown in fig. 6 (certainly, not limited thereto, 1, 5, 7, or 9, etc.). Thus, the fixed rail 110 and the adjacent movable rail 120 form a conveying group for conveying one carrier 800 together, and two adjacent movable rails 120 of the remaining movable rails 120 form a conveying group for conveying one carrier 800 together. The above-mentioned positioning assembly may be disposed between two rails within one conveying group, in other words, two positioning assemblies are included, one of which is disposed between the fixed rail 110 and the movable rail 120 adjacent thereto, and the other of which is disposed between the other two movable rails 120, when viewed in a vertical direction downward.

The specific position between the movable rail 120 and the fixed rail 110 can be adjusted. Before describing this adjustment, the structure of the movable rail 120 and the fixed rail 110 will be described here. Either one of the movable rail 120 and the fixed rail 110 includes a conveyor belt 150 and a support member 160, wherein each support member 160 may be rotatably provided with two wheel portions, the conveyor belt 150 may be sleeved outside the two wheel portions, either one of the foregoing may further include the remaining wheel portions, the conveyor belt 150 may also be sleeved outside the remaining wheel portions, and one of the remaining wheel portions may be driven by the stepping motor 140. After the carrier 800 mounts the pcb, the positioning assembly is reset, the carrier 800 returns to the conveyor 150 again, and the conveyor 150 rotates to convey the carrier 800 along the predetermined direction, thereby achieving the blanking.

Further, the conveying member may include an engaging portion and a driving portion, as an example, the engaging portion may be formed as a nut, the driving portion may be formed as a lead screw, wherein the nut is embedded in the supporting member 160 of the movable rail 120 and is sleeved on an outer side portion of the lead screw, one end of the lead screw is rotatably disposed on the supporting member 160 of the fixed rail 110, and the other end of the lead screw may be driven by a motor, so that the concrete between each movable rail 120 and the fixed rail 110 may be changed by the rotation of the lead screw, thereby adapting to carriers 800 with different widths, and increasing the adaptability of the mounting apparatus.

In addition, in order to make the moving process of the movable rail 120 more stable, the conveying member further includes a guide post 130, one end of the guide post 130 is connected to the fixed rail 110, and the other end thereof penetrates through the supporting member 160 of the movable rail 120, thereby guiding the movement of the movable rail 120. Preferably, a linear bearing is provided between the supporting member 160 of the moving rail 120 and the guide post 130, so as to prevent the guide post 130 from being worn and also reduce the resistance to the movement of the moving rail 120.

Referring to fig. 3 in conjunction with fig. 2 and 3, and in particular to fig. 3, fig. 3 shows, in particular, the detailed structure of the feed mechanism 300 as an enlarged view. Wherein the feeding mechanism 300 includes at least two sets of carrier members and seat members connected to each other, and in fig. 3, two sets of carrier members and seat members are provided as an example, but not limited thereto, and may be three, four, or more sets although not shown in the figure. In an embodiment, the seat member may be formed as a mount 320, and the mount 320 may be formed with a storage area; the carrier member may be formed as a plate, for example, the loading carrier plate 310 provided to the frame 600, and reciprocates with a predetermined stroke.

Referring to fig. 3, in particular, the mounting base 320 may include a base plate disposed on the upper end surface of the loading carrier plate 310 and a limiting member disposed on the upper end surface of the base plate, and the limiting member may be formed in a shape similar to an angle steel, so that a storage area is defined by four limiting members, and substantially strip-shaped printed circuit boards are stored in the storage area in a stacked manner. The loading carrier 310 and the rack 600 may be slidably connected by a slider and a slide rail, where the slider is along a slidable range of the slide rail, i.e. a predetermined stroke, as an example, a nut may be disposed at a lower end of the loading carrier 310, and the loading carrier is driven by a lead screw engaged with the nut to slide. In this manner, two or even more sets of carrier members and seat members may be alternately moved toward the side of the gripping mechanism 200, which allows at least one set of carrier members and seat members storing printed circuit boards to be located on the side of the gripping mechanism 200 for the gripping mechanism 200 to grip the printed circuit boards, while at least one set of carrier members and seat members of holes is located on the side opposite to the side of the gripping mechanism 200 for manually placing the stacked printed circuit boards into the storage area for loading. Therefore, the continuous operation of the installation process is ensured, and the production efficiency is further improved.

Further, the gripping mechanism 200 comprises a robot 210 and suction cup assemblies 220 connected to each other, and the number of the suction cup assemblies 220 is at least two, such as the two suction cup assemblies 220 shown in the present embodiment, but may also be three, four or more. The two chuck assemblies 220 here correspond to the above two transport groups, respectively. Referring to fig. 4 and 5, and particularly to fig. 5, the robot 210 includes a beam disposed at the end, two suction cup assemblies 220 are respectively connected to two ends of the beam through two plates, and a light source assembly 230 is connected to the middle of the beam and located between two adjacent suction cup assemblies 220. The light source assembly 230 can emit light so that in case the chuck assembly 220 sucks the printed circuit board, the robot 210 can control the chuck assembly 220 to observe the printed circuit board through a visible portion, which may be formed as a CCD camera 700 (particularly shown in fig. 2), for example, and the CCD camera 700 may be provided to the frame 600 and used to observe the printed circuit board, thereby implementing precise positioning. In addition, a CCD camera 700 may be provided at the end of the conveying member, i.e., the end away from the second position described below, for observing the engagement of the pcb with the carrier 800.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 1, 2 and 4, the mounting apparatus may further include a reflow line 510, a biaxial module and a robot 520, wherein the reflow line 510 may be disposed in the rack 600 and used to transport the carrier 800, and the carrier 800 may be an empty carrier 800 reflowed from the remaining apparatuses. The two-axis module may be disposed on the frame 600, and the robot 520 may be connected to the two-axis module and configured to grab the carrier 800. In an embodiment, the two-axis module can move along the horizontal direction and drive the manipulator 520 to perform a lifting motion, the horizontal motion can be realized by using a linear motor module, and the vertical motion can be realized by using a cylinder. The robot 520 may include a jaw cylinder and at least two gripping members driven by the jaw cylinder to grip the carrier 800.

The mounting apparatus may further include a transfer mechanism 400, the transfer mechanism 400 may be provided to the rack 600, and the transfer mechanism 400 may reciprocate at a first position and a second position on the rack 600. When the transfer mechanism 400 is in the first position, the robot 520 is configured to grasp the carrier 800 to the first position, and when the transfer mechanism 400 is in the second position, the transfer mechanism 400 interfaces with the positioning assembly. In this manner, when the transfer mechanism 400 is in the second position, the carrier 800 carried by itself can be transported toward the positioning assembly. In an embodiment, the transfer mechanism 400 may include the structure of the transport member as described above, upon which the structure may be disposed on the transfer plate and moved between the first position and the second position via the lead screw and the nut. In other words, the transferring mechanism 400 also includes the fixed rail 110, the movable rail 120 and the conveying set, and the carriers 800 with different widths can be adapted by adjusting the movable rail 120, and the transferring mechanism 400 also includes the above structures such as the conveyor belt 150, which will not be described herein again.
