First, the stacked fluorescent lamp pedestal 110 is composed of a fluorescent lamp pedestal 112 and the moving frame 114. Here, the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112 is a pedestal having a structure in which a plurality of fluorescent lamps can be mounted and aged at regular intervals. Leads (R) formed at both ends of the fluorescent lamp are positioned on the pedestal, and terminal blocks 112a are provided on both sides thereof, and the fluorescent lamp alignment table 130 can pass through the center portion thereof. Passing groove of the alignment table (not shown in the drawing) is formed. The alignment guide passage groove serves as a path through which the fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130 passes in the vertical direction when the fluorescent lamp support is mounted on the fluorescent lamp pedestal. However, when the pedestal passage groove through which the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112 can pass is formed in the center region of the fluorescent lamp alignment stage 130, the alignment pedestal passage groove need not be formed in the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112.

In this case, the stacked fluorescent lamp pedestal refers to a fluorescent lamp pedestal having a structure in which a plurality of fluorescent lamp pedestals are stacked in a vertical direction. Since the arrangement of a plurality of fluorescent lamp pedestals in the horizontal direction increases the area occupied in the clean room, a plurality of fluorescent lamp pedestals 112 are stacked in the vertical direction so that the area occupied in the clean room is not increased. It is to increase the fluorescent lamps aged in the aging device.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, a plurality of fluorescent lamp pedestals 112 are coupled to and stacked in an installation groove (not shown) formed in the moving frame 114. At this time, each of the fluorescent lamp pedestal may be stacked horizontally with the ground, as shown in Figure 4, may be stacked inclined at a predetermined angle toward the operator. When the fluorescent lamp pedestal is installed to be inclined in the worker direction, when the operator performs the mounting operation of the fluorescent lamp, there is an advantage that the fluorescent lamp can be easily mounted on the terminal block that is far from the operator among the terminal blocks. That is, the operator can mount the fluorescent lamp on all the terminal blocks of the fluorescent lamp pedestal without having to bow a lot.

In the stacked fluorescent lamp pedestal 110, a plurality of fluorescent lamp pedestals are stacked very adjacent to each other, so that the operation of mounting the fluorescent lamps in the state in which the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112 is stacked on the moving frame 114 is very important. it's difficult. Therefore, the provision of the fluorescent lamp pedestal in a sliding manner is to move the fluorescent lamp pedestal in the horizontal or slightly inclined direction when discharging the fluorescent lamp pedestal and discharge it to the outside, and then mount the fluorescent lamp to perform the fluorescent lamp mounting work. This is to facilitate the progress.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112 is detachably coupled to the moving frame 114, and a sliding block is provided below. In addition, the sliding unit 160 is coupled to the sliding block to form a sliding rail 160 for sliding the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112 in a horizontal direction or a slightly inclined direction. That is, the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112 is provided on each sliding rail 160 provided to be coupled to the moving frame 114 at predetermined intervals. At this time, each fluorescent lamp pedestal has a structure that can be coupled to the sliding rail and slide. At this time, instead of the sliding block in the lower portion of the fluorescent lamp pedestal, it is also possible to install a plurality of wheels, such as to reduce the friction when sliding to facilitate the sliding.

Of course, it is also possible to access the fluorescent lamp pedestal in a manner other than the slab method.

Next, the vertical driving means 120 is a component for driving the entire stacked fluorescent lamp pedestal 110 in the vertical direction. The vertical driving means 120 drives the fluorescent lamp pedestal 110 in the vertical direction while driving the fluorescent lamp pedestal 110 in a vertical direction so that the fluorescent lamps are mounted on the fluorescent lamp pedestals 112 provided in the stacked fluorescent lamp pedestal 110 in order. In this case, the fluorescent lamps that are matured can be taken out.

At this time, the vertical drive means 120 is a single movement, it is preferable to drive the stacked fluorescent lamp pedestal 110 so as to move by the interval between the adjacent fluorescent lamp pedestal. The reason is that the mounting work of the fluorescent lamp and the carrying out work of the fluorescent lamp are performed for each fluorescent lamp pedestal. In this embodiment, the vertical drive means 120, the vertical movement guide bar 126 coupled to the moving frame 114 to guide the vertical movement direction; A moving part 124 coupled to the vertical movement guide bar 126 to move the moving frame 114 in the vertical direction; It provides power to the moving unit 124, the drive motor 122 provided in the lower portion of the fluorescent lamp ripening apparatus 100; is configured to include. Therefore, the stacked fluorescent lamp pedestal 110 is moved by the power of the driving motor 122 while being guided in the direction of movement while being coupled with the vertical movement guide bar 126.

It is the component that makes it possible. The fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130 has a plate-like shape, and has a size capable of driving up and down through the alignment stand through hole formed in the center of the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112. At this time, a plurality of alignment grooves 132 are formed on the upper surface of the fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130 at the same interval between the adjacent terminal blocks of the terminal block 112a formed on the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112. In addition, a pedestal passage hole having a size through which the fluorescent lamp pedestal may pass may be formed in the center region of the fluorescent lamp alignment unit. In this case, the fluorescent lamp alignment stage is driven downward while accommodating the outer circumference of the fluorescent lamp pedestal through the pedestal passage hole.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 4, the fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130 may further include a fluorescent lamp collection jaw 134 at one end thereof. The fluorescent lamp collection jaw 134 has the same number of fluorescent lamps as the number of the alignment grooves 132 on the fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130 when the plurality of fluorescent lamps are placed on the fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130. Rather than placing it on the mounting groove 132, the number of fluorescent lamps than the number of the alignment grooves 132 on the fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130 and then the operator rolls the fluorescent lamps in the worker direction to the alignment grooves 132 The fluorescent lamps are positioned one by one, and the remaining fluorescent lamps are collected in the fluorescent lamp collection jaw 134, and then the fluorescent lamps are removed to perform the next process.

At this time, the fluorescent lamp alignment table 130 itself, as shown in Figure 7, should be provided to be driven in the vertical direction based on the fluorescent lamp ripening apparatus. That is, in the position where the fluorescent lamp pedestal is taken out, the fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130 may ascend through the alignment stand passage hole formed in the center region of the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112, and the fluorescent lamp pedestal is fluorescence in each alignment groove 132. After the lamp is aligned, the lamp is lowered so that the fluorescent lamp can be driven in the vertical direction so that the fluorescent lamp can be mounted on the terminal block. Here, the vertical driving of the fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130 may be performed manually by an operator, or may be automatically performed by using a separate power.

The third method is to couple the fluorescent lamp alignment table 130 to the predetermined portion of the main frame 140 of the fluorescent lamp ripening apparatus 100 by the hinge 136. At this time, the position where the fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130 is coupled is preferably the lower portion of the position where the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112 is taken out and the fluorescent lamp mounting operation proceeds. In this case, since the fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130 can be rotated by the hinge 136, after the fluorescent lamp pedestal 112 is taken out to the working position, the fluorescent lamp alignment stand 130 is rotated so that the fluorescent lamp alignment stand is rotated. The fluorescent lamps are aligned with the respective alignment grooves by ascending through the alignment hole through holes formed in the central region of the fluorescent lamp pedestal. Then, the fluorescent lamp alignment unit 130 is lowered so that each fluorescent lamp is mounted on the terminal block.

At this time, in the present embodiment, the showbar 150 is further coupled to both left and right ends or one side end of the fluorescent lamp alignment table 130. The other end of the showbar 150 is coupled to a predetermined portion of the main frame 140. Therefore, the fluorescent lamp alignment stage 130 is rotated by the showbar 150. In this case, the driving of the fluorescent lamp alignment unit is performed automatically.

The last method is to mount the fluorescent lamp on the fluorescent lamp pedestal by horizontally moving the fluorescent lamp alignment stage. In this case, the fluorescent lamp pedestal does not have to slide in the horizontal direction. This is because the fluorescent lamp alignment stage moves in the horizontal direction to mount the fluorescent lamp. Therefore, a sliding block is provided at the bottom of the fluorescent lamp alignment stage, and the horizontal movement means is provided to move the fluorescent lamp alignment stage to the upper side of the fluorescent lamp pedestal in combination with the sliding block. In this embodiment, this horizontal movement means is provided as a sliding rail. That is, it is formed in parallel in the direction of the fluorescent lamp pedestal to provide a path for sliding the fluorescent lamp alignment table. When the fluorescent lamp alignment stage is moved horizontally, it is preferable to mount the fluorescent lamp pedestal to the fluorescent lamp pedestal by driving the fluorescent lamp pedestal upward and not to drive the fluorescent lamp pedestal to the lower side to mount the fluorescent lamp pedestal.
