Abstract

A screening apparatus (40) comprises a discharge chute (33), a transport table (42), a screening table (43), and at least one air exhaust device (53a), so that it realizes screening of works (15) that are completed in inspection by an inspection apparatus (30). A plurality of work holding spaces (50) are arranged at prescribed pitches therebetween in a circumferential direction of the transport table, wherein a leap inhibiting wall for inhibiting the work from leaping outside is arranged between the discharge chute and the work holding space. As the transport table rotates, the works sequentially transported via the discharge chute are forced to automatically fall into the work holding spaces independently. Then, as the screening table rotates, it receives the works from the transport table so as to discharge them into the corresponding boxes by means of the air exhaust device in response to inspection results thereof.

This application is a request for the right of priority of this patent application No. 2003_46894 " Inner valley of the Hai Shenming case is hereby incorporated into this case for reference. [Prior art] Conventionally, an image processing device using a CCD camera (where "CCD" stands for "electrically coupled element,") is used to perform inspection of the appearance of different work pieces such as a wafer including a capacitor and a sensor. Used in multiple electronic devices. The inspection devices that inspect the appearance of work pieces are equipped with screening (or selection or classification) devices for classifying the work pieces into good products and defective products to reflect the inspection results. An example of this is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-48725. That is, the work piece which operates the screening device to thoroughly check the appearance by the CCD camera is conveyed through an obliquely downwardly elongated conveyance. The path is conveyed to the outer peripheral part of the upper surface of a turntable, where the work pieces are rotated on the turntable when the turntable is rotated. Here, each work piece is directed to a designated position by using a discharge element that generates air blow. Discharge to reflect its inspection results. However, the aforementioned screening device has problems in conveying a work piece to the turntable. The work piece may accidentally fall from the turntable, or it may roll or rotate on the turntable, and it cannot be accurately set to a specified position on the turntable. This results in the reaction check result accurately classifying the work piece as O: \ 87 \ 87925 DOC4 1232297 [Summary of the invention]-The purpose is to provide a work piece for screening completed inspections that can be reliably classified and accurately transported to a designated location to reflect the inspection results. 工作 Workpiece of the present invention The sieve.selection device basically includes a "inclined" slope for continuous delivery, completion of inspection, and an m-sending unit (for example, a transport table) in which a plurality of work pieces maintain a space. Poems temporarily remain from ㈣ Continuously conveyed work pieces are arranged at a specified pitch during these operations. Therefore, these work pieces are continuously conveyed and a runout suppression wall is provided to prevent the work pieces from being accidentally accidentally located at a specified position between the slope and the work piece holding space. Runout, and-the unloading unit is used to transfer each work piece from the transport unit there to a unloading at a designated unloading position in response to a The inspection result produced by the inspection unit. That is, the work piece that has completed the inspection is transferred to the work piece holding space of the conveying unit via the slope, and then it is conveyed and unloaded step by step. In addition, the present invention is characterized by A runout suppression wall is arranged between the work piece holding space of the conveying unit and the work piece to prevent the work piece from unexpectedly bouncing toward the outside. Therefore, even when the work piece is conveyed from the ramp violently, it can be surely and securely held by the work piece. Keeping the work piece in the space will not cause it to bounce outward. The work piece is rotated by the conveying unit, and then the discharge unit is appropriately discharged at the designated discharge position to reflect the inspection result. Therefore , Can be accurately classified and identified between good, products and defective products 0 \ 87 \ 87925.DOC4 1232297

Therefore, the work piece can and can be reliably conveyed toward the auxiliary conveying unit in a proper position. In addition, a gap is arranged between the side surface of the conveying unit and the surrounding surface of the hollow portion, in other words, an opening between the work piece holding space and a portion of the conveying unit for transferring the work piece to the auxiliary conveying unit, thereby When the conveying unit is rotated, the work piece can be caught between the conveying unit and the cover. Due to the aforementioned clearance, the conveying unit can smoothly rotate without directly contacting the surrounding surface of the hollow portion of the housing. In addition, a discharge channel that allows the discharge of work pieces is arranged under the conveying order O: \ 87 \ 87925.DOC4 -9-1232297 "then #for the auxiliary conveying unit to rotate 'so that the helmet method can be conveyed to the auxiliary & Technical leave one ..., unloaded to the outside "early work piece, safely via the discharge channel" as described above 'when the conveying unit cannot convey the work piece to the auxiliary conveyance early work piece so the work piece remains in the work piece When it is in the holding space, it is possible to make a safe piece, ...: unloading from the discharge channel to the outside. That is, it can prevent the work piece that cannot be transported to the auxiliary rotation unit and still remains in the work piece holding space. The introduction of another new work piece from the slope causes no obstacles: entry, the condition in which the work piece is kept in the space, and the avoidance of multiple work and 4 mistakes > entering the same work piece while in the middle of the work piece. Therefore, it can be avoided The incompatibility of the inspection results occurs continuously because the alignment status of the work piece cannot be distinguished and cannot be consistent with the alignment status of the work piece. Furthermore, the conveying unit and the auxiliary conveying unit are in At the designated position of the rendezvous: cooperate with each other at the relative moving speed; and the unloading unit can unload the work pieces transported there from the auxiliary conveying unit. That is, the two positions are generally fixed at the same position. The relative moving fast work piece is positioned at the position of the conveying unit towel and the poem accepting the work piece in the auxiliary conveying unit. Therefore, the work piece can be smoothly and without difficulty transported from the conveying single wheel to the auxiliary rotating unit (that is, (From the conveying table to the screening table).: Invention-The work piece screening method basically includes three steps, that is, the first conveying wheel is continuously produced on the ramp and the work piece is inspected. The second conveying step is used for These work pieces that are continuously delivered from the slope are independently placed into a plurality of work piece holding spaces, which are continuously located near the slope and arranged at a designated pitch therebetween, O: \ 87 \ 87925.DOC4 -10- 1232297 = Two spaces combined with a run-out suppression wall for suppressing the self-space jump of the work piece: and a discharging step for the placement of each work piece at the -designated position 'and its inspection results According to the work piece screening method 1, continuous transfer from the slope to the conveying unit = two pieces, which can be surely and safely maintained at every one piece holding :: within Yui 'will not accidentally jump to the outside of the conveying unit ; Therefore: ―The work piece can be reliably rotated by the conveying unit and accepted for screening. As described above, it is characterized in that the conveying unit moves a time corresponding to a pitch corresponding to the work piece holding space, which is set by ^ Shorter than the time interval for each piece of work to be transferred from the oblique field. That is, 'even when the next work piece is supplied from the slope at the middle position between the holding spaces of adjacent work pieces, it will arrive soon. Work piece holding space for safely holding the next jade piece in it. Because of A, it can be reliably avoided that the work piece cannot be held in the work piece holding space 'or multiple work pieces are erroneously held in The situation where the same work piece remains in space. Also gp, can prevent the guard piece from jumping to the outside of the delivery unit; i can avoid the occurrence of unidentifiable alignment of work pieces because multiple work pieces can be reliably prevented from being held in the same work piece holding space by mistake in. [Embodiment] The present invention will be further described in detail with reference to accompanying drawings via examples. Figure ^ is a front view showing the equipment of a preferred embodiment of the present invention: Screening list S 4G-Appearance inspection device 1G. The lower part of the visual inspection device 10 is constructed by a square plate-shaped base 12, and the track 11 is laid on the base O: \ 87 \ 87925.DOC4 1232297. A work piece supply unit 20, an inspection unit 30, and a screening unit 40 are arranged on the upper surface of the base 12, so that the positions can be freely adjusted along the track 11 in the left-right direction in FIG. The lower part of the work piece supply unit 20 is constructed by a mobile carrier 21 that engages with the road 丨 丨, thereby moving the mobile carrier 21 along the road 丨 丨 to carry out the work The component supply unit 20 is set at an arbitrary position on the base ^. In addition, the mobile carrier 21 can be adjusted in a three-dimensional positioning manner by an adjusting screw (not shown), which can move J in a vertical direction or down, and can move forward and backward in a direction perpendicular to the paper of FIG. 丨 ( /, Zhongyue j side generation 纟 month direction). A vibration generator ^ having a motor is attached to the upper surface of the mobile carrier 21. A feeder 23 for transporting a work piece 15 (see FIG. 5) to the inspection unit 30 is attached to the upper surface of the vibration generator ^. The tip portion of the feeder 23 protrudes and is extended toward the inspection element 30. For temporarily holding work pieces! A funnel 2 of 5 is arranged on the feeder 23 ′, and a supply chute 25 for supplying the work piece 15 held in the funnel 24 to the feeder 23 is arranged at the lower end of the funnel 24 Part 7 is 'when the vibration generator is driven to supply the truck with a feed 23 at the same time as the hopper M system' to vibrate the feeder 23 to cause the work piece pair: the inspection unit 30 to move. Therefore, the work pieces of the-series are linearly moved continuously toward the tip portion of the feeder 23. The 2nd: 7 " 30 is installed in the visual inspection device 10, and the main system for performing 4 double inspections is arranged on the upper surface of the mobile carrier 31, and is merged with the 11 It can be fixed along the track O: \ 87 \ 87925.DOC4 -12-1232297 11 on the base 12 at any position. The upper portion of the moving carrier 31 is slightly bent toward the tip portion of the feeder 23 of the work piece supply unit 20. A flat plate-like bottom plate 32 is attached to the upper end portion of the upper side portion of the mobile carrier 3, so that its upper surface is inclined toward the feeder 23. A discharge chute 33, which is a slope (or a ramp) for removing the work piece 15 for "completion inspection" from the inspection unit 30, is attached to the center area of the bottom plate 32. In addition, a transmission hole 34 is formed to pass through the central area of the bottom plate 32, and an image of the lower surface of the work piece 15 is obtained. … The discharge chute 33 is attached to the surrounding part of the transmission hole _ 34 located on the side of the mobile carrier 3 丨, wherein the surface thereof is configured like a passage, and the branch cross-section thereof is in the shape of a half ring Agree. A cylindrical interconnecting member 35 provided with a plurality of members for obtaining images on individual sides of the work piece 15 is attached to the upper surface of the base plate 32, which constitutes a connection with the feeder-23 and A path interconnected by the discharge chute 33. The four CCD cameras 36a and 36b (for convenience, the figure "shows two cameras; however, four cameras are actually provided) are arranged at equal intervals along the periphery of the interconnecting member 35, In order to obtain an image of the work piece 5 falling from the tip portion of the feeder 23 and its individual sides. In addition, two CCD cameras 36c and 30d are arranged on the side of the interconnecting member 35 and On the lower side, in order to obtain images of the work piece 5 related to its upper and lower surfaces. That is, this specific embodiment is designed to obtain images of the work piece 15 on the six sides. Of course, This specific embodiment can be modified to provide only four CCD cameras 36a and 36b, thus enabling inspection of the four sides of the work piece 15. Alternatively, its' can be modified to O: \ 87 \ 87925 .DOC4 -13-1232297 Combining four CCD cameras 36a and 36b with an additional CCD camera for obtaining an upper surface image or a lower surface image of one of the work pieces 15, thus realizing the five to five sides of the work piece An inspection mirror 38a is The bracket 37a is disposed above the upper surface of the interconnecting member 35. That is, the CCD camera 36c can obtain an image of the upper surface of the work piece 15 by the reflection of the mirror 38a. Similarly, a mirror 38b It is arranged below a lower surface of the base plate 32 via a bracket 37b. Therefore, the CCD camera 36 (1) can obtain the _view image of the lower surface of the work piece 15 by the reflection of the reflecting mirror 38b. Screening unit 40 is controlled by a control device (not shown) based on the image collection results generated by the CCD camera 3, 3, and so on, so that it can be used for the screening work of the work piece 15. Figures 丨 3 and 6 Shown are the details of the screening unit 40, where the screening unit 40 includes a mobile carrier in the side below it, and a conveyor 42, and a station in the side above it. The teacher selects (or classifies) the platform 43. The mobile carrier 41 is in line with the ruling ", 、, b, 月 &bu; ” the ruling on the base 12 can be adjusted to the appropriate position. Specifically, it includes a transmission mechanism 44 having an electric motor, The conveying table 42 is rotatably driven, and a transmission mechanism 45 having an electric motor is rotatably driving the screening table 43. The conveying table 42 is installed in an outer cover 46 and is disposed in the work piece supply unit 20 In the side portion of the upper surface of the mobile carrier, the upper part includes a gear-shaped rotating body having gear teeth and notches 47, and the gear teeth and the notches 47 may be spaced at a specified pitch therebetween. Alternately and peripherally arranged. The center of one of the rotating bodies is connected by 4 R in the coffee / by ^. 8 series and O: \ 87 \ 87925.DOC4 of the electric motor of the transmission mechanism 44 • 14-1232297 transmission shaft 44a, Therefore, once the electric motor is driven, the conveying table 42 is rotated in a clockwise direction "a" (viewed from the side of the screen by the side of the screen). : This constitutes the female notch 47. Its upstream side surface (viewed in the direction of rotation of the conveying table 42) is arranged along one of the diameter directions of the conveying table 42, and its downstream side surface faces downstream of the conveying table 42 Slanted. The ring-shaped hollow portion 49 is formed on the upper surface of the outer cover 46, so that the wheel platform 42 is accommodated in the hollow portion 49 in a rotatable manner. A work piece holding space 50 is surrounded by a peripheral wall of a hollow portion 49 and a bottom portion 49b (see Figs. 4 and 6), and each notch 47 of the conveying table 42, because of this. A plurality of work piece holding spaces defined by the mouth 47 are arranged in the hollow portion 49 around the conveying table 42. Here, the area of a portion of the bottom portion 49b defined by each of the notches 47 is set to be sufficiently larger than a designated area in which a work piece 15 is accommodated. A hole 46a communicating with the lower end portion of the discharge chute 33 is formed at one end portion of the cover 46. That is, the slope of the discharge chute 33 communicates with the inside of the hollow portion 49 (that is, the inside of the work piece holding space 50) via the hole 46 &. _ Occasionally, the surrounding wall 49a of the hollow portion 49 and the conveying table 42 are respectively set to a designated height or a higher position, so as to prevent the drastically driven drivable work piece 15 from the self-unloading chute 33. Run away. A runout suppressing wall 'is constructed in this way to prevent the work piece 15 from jumping unexpectedly. ~ For example, when the designated size of work piece 15 is defined as 1 mm x 0.5 mm x 0.5 mm, the height of the surrounding wall 49a of the hollow portion 49 and the height of the conveying table 42 are preferably set to 20 mm % Or higher. In addition, as shown in FIG. 4B and FIG. 6, the conveying table 42 is arranged inside the hollow portion 49, and O: \ 87 \ 87925 DOC4 -15-1232297 has a gap 49d facing the surrounding wall 49a. 5 The 'specific' gap 49d is accidentally caught between the outer cover μ and the conveyance 42. It is formed at a designated position communicating with the hole 仏. It is close to the periphery of the hollow portion 49 and rotates in the direction 乂. When the table 42 is coupled, the work piece 15 is conveyed toward the screening table 43, so that the conveyed work piece 15 can be reliably prevented from being caught between the outer cover 仏 and the conveyance table 42 accidentally. The gap 49d is formed on the wall, and is located in an area corresponding to at least part of the hole that is closer to the hole; specifically, the gap _ is formed in a region on the wall 49a 'located in the direction "a", which The range is from at least part of the access hole 46 a toward the part approaching the screening stage 43. In this case, m 'is preferable that the height measured between the bottom peach of the hollow portion 49 and the lower end of the gap_ is set to 8 mm or higher. As shown in FIG. 4, the bottom portion of the hollow portion 49 and the opposite portion of 49b disposed opposite to the screening stage 43 are cut to be solitary, and the μ sending stage u partially protrudes from the bottom 49b, and thus is located in the screening Above the stage 43. In addition, a discharge channel # 49c 'where ㈣ is a _㈣ part (or a bypass part) and its tip part is arranged downward (see the left part in FIG. 4) is connected to the rotation of the conveying table 42 The downstream side of the direction is formed along the outer periphery of the truncated portion of the bottom peach. Furthermore, a work piece retrieving part (not shown) is used to retrieve the work 输送 'which is transported there via the discharge passage 49c, and is disposed in an end portion below the discharge passage 49e. Therefore, when the work piece 15 is conveyed through the discharge chute 33 while the conveying table 42 is rotated through the transmission mechanism 44, the work piece 15 is guided into the work piece holding space 50 via the hole technique, and the conveyance is rotated. The table 42 rotates on the bottom _ of the hollow portion M. O: \ 87 \ 87925.DOC4 -16- 1232297 The teacher selection platform 43 is used to drive it through the _ heart correction and transmission mechanism: "5a interconnected. The upper surface of the teacher selection platform 43 and the bottom of the hollow section 4 The Foreign Minister ’s height is reduced, so when the outer part 大 is large ^ the hollow 49 49 is cut off at the bottom 49b, the ㉟ screening platform ^ is in the direction of the arrow, 'b' (that is, from the figure 2 in the counterclockwise direction on the upper side). —The jade workpiece receiving part ... is arranged in the surrounding part on the upper surface of the screening table 43. The workpiece receiving part 43a is made of rubber sheet in order to receive the work piece 15H conveyed by the conveying table 42. The work piece 15 is prevented from sliding on it. The one-position detection sensor 52 is arranged above the screening table 43 and is close to the conveyance. At a designated position of 42, the work piece 15 which is sent to the screening table u is detected. In addition, the four exhaust units 53a, 53b, 53c, and 53d are arranged above and around the portion outside the screening table 43 opposite to the conveying table 42 and along the portion at a specified distance therebetween. Furthermore, a good product storage box and a defective product storage box (not shown) are arranged below the end portion of the screening table 43 and are vertically opposed to the exhaust devices 53a, 53b, 53c, and 53d.丨 The teacher selection platform 43 accepts the work pieces 1 5 continuously conveyed to it by the conveying table 42. Therefore, the work pieces 丨 5 are at a specified distance therebetween, and are arranged around the work piece receiving portion 43a. On the top surface; therefore, they are entered into the aforementioned boxes separately. Specifically, when the work piece 15 is identified as a good product according to the inspection result generated by the inspection unit 30, for example, 'when the work piece 15 passes the good product storage box, the exhaust device 5 3 a is activated for To blow the work piece 15 into the good product storage box. When the work piece 15 is identified as a defective product, for example, when the work piece 15 passes over the defective O: \ 87 \ 87925 DOC4 -17-1232297 defective product storage box, the exhaust device is activated to not Work piece 15 blows into the defective product storage box. Therefore, it is possible to identify such work pieces between the good product and the defective product, which are accurately delivered to the good product storage box and the defective product storage box, respectively. The other exhaust devices 53c and 53d are appropriately activated to blow the work piece 15 into the corresponding product storage box to reflect the degree and type of the defect. ~ The visual inspection device 10 further includes electrical control elements such as a central processing unit (mi) 'read-only memory (axis), and random access memory (RAM), and a ccd camera including the aforementioned electromechanical elements ( For example, 36a)-image processing element. The image processing element performs a processing operation on an image obtained by a camera (for example, the obtained image), thereby identifying the work piece 15 between a good product and a defective product. In addition, the image processing element is equipped with a display The screen is used to zoom in and display six sides of each work piece 15 (or a hexagonal structure); therefore, the operation can view the image to visually judge whether the work piece 15 is a good product or a Defective products. Next, an example of using the aforementioned visual inspection device 10 to inspect a work piece 15 to be inspected (see FIG. 5), such as-capacitor wafers for visual inspection and screening. Prior to inspection, such health The work piece 15 is held in front of the hopper 24 of the work piece supply unit 20; then, a power switch (not shown) of the visual inspection device 10 is turned on, so that the aforementioned units and components are separately activated to perform the specified actions. In the work piece supply unit 20, a specified number of work pieces 15 are supplied from the hopper 24 to the feeder 23 through the supply chute 25. Once the vibration is transmitted,

When the work piece 15 passes through the center portion of the interconnecting member 35 and falls, the CCD cameras 36a to 36d capture images on the respective sides of the work piece 15 and thus do not affect the photographing. Based on the images related to the six sides of the work piece 15, the image processing element is operated to identify whether the work piece 15 is a good product or a defective product. The identification is performed based on specified standards relating to external dimensions, dirt, flaws, and abnormal substances adhered thereto, by photographing, and by work piece 15. In this case, the "magnified image" captured on the six sides of the work piece 15 is displayed on the screen of the image processing element; therefore, the operator can detect defects on any part of the work piece 15. The work piece 15 identified between a good product and a defective product is dropped into the discharge chute 33, descends and then falls through the hole 46a into the work holding space 50 of the screening unit 40. Since the bounce suppression wall is formed around the work holding space 50, even when the work piece 15 falls into the work holding space 50 fiercely, the work piece 15 can be surely placed into the work holding space. After that, the The work piece is conveyed by the conveying platform 42 toward the screening platform 43.
