Description

基板移运装置
【技术领域】
本发明涉及一种基板移运装置，特别涉及一种可应用于液晶面板后段模块组装制程以自动化载送不同大小尺寸的LCD（Liquid Crystal Display，液晶显示）面板的基板移运装置。
【背景技术】
TFT-LCD（薄膜晶体管液晶显示器）的液晶面板后段模块组装制程中，LCD面板的周侧粘贴完印刷电路板后，需将LCM（LCD module，液晶显示模块）载送至其他机台或托盘上以进行下一制程作业。目前LCM多采用人工搬送或吸取机构吸取面板的方式。
因LCM的尺寸多样化，人工搬运LCM可适用于不同尺寸的LCM生产线；然而，人工搬运耗时费力，产能无法得到有效提升，加之，较大尺寸的LCM重量较大，人工搬运不堪负荷且搬运过程中易造成产品损伤。
采用吸取机构吸取LCD面板进行搬送可有效提高产能。然而，在此搬送过程中，LCD面板被吸取机构吸取后，由于粘贴于LCD面板周侧的印刷电路板不能被吸取，故载送过程中该印刷电路板呈下垂状；放置LCD面板时易受下垂的印刷电路板阻碍而影响放置的顺畅性。
因此，有必要提供一种基板移运装置，以解决上述问题。
【发明内容】
本发明主要解决的技术问题是提供一种自动化、易于液晶显示模块的基板移送装置。

其中，第一导引装置包括两条第一直线导轨，托持块滑动套设在第一直线导轨上。
其中，第一直线导轨上设置刻度线。
其中，第二导引装置是第二直线导轨，承置块滑动套设在第二直线导轨上。

其中，定位件包括一组第一回路真空吸嘴和一组第二回路真空吸嘴，同一托持块上的第一回路真空吸嘴和第二回路真空吸嘴位于一条直线上，且同一托持块上的第一回路真空吸嘴与第二回路真空吸嘴间隔设置。

为解决上述技术问题，本发明采用的另一个技术方案是：提供一种基板移送装置，包括：承台，用于承载待移送基板，承台设有沿第一水平方向平行设置且间距可调的多个承置块；托架，包括固定块以及沿第一水平方向平行设置在固定块上且间距可调的多个托持块；驱动源，能够驱动托架移动，以使托持块至少部分插入承置块之间的间隙，进而托持且移送待移送基板。

本发明的有益效果是： 与现有技术相比，本发明基板移送装置的承台临时承接待移送的基板，托架在驱动源的驱动下发生位移将承接在承台上的基板抬起并移送至其它位置，该移送过程自动化程度高；且在基板移送过程中液晶显示器器件周侧的电路板亦被托架的托持块承接，故放置基板过程中不会出现电路板下垂阻碍基板放置顺畅性的现象。

【具体实施方式】
下面结合附图和实施例对本发明进行详细说明。
请参照图1， 本发明实施例基板移送装置100包括承台1、托架2和驱动源3。
承台1用来承载待移送的基板4。基板4是液晶显示模块，包括液晶显示器件41和连接至液晶显示器件41周侧的电路板42。承台1包括沿第一水平方向X平行设置的多个承置块11。相邻承置块11之间的间距可以调节。托架2包括固定块20和沿第一水平方向X平行设置在固定块20上的多个托持块21。相邻托持块21之间的间距可以调节。
具体应用中，根据待移送的基板4尺寸，先调节承置块11之间的间距至合适的尺寸，并相应调节固定块20之间的间距，然后将待移送的基板4放置在承台1上，等待基板4进一步的移送动作。
本发明实施例中，承台1作为基板4的临时放置载体，并与托架2互相配合使用。因不同批次的基板尺寸可能不相等。当使用基板移送装置100移送小尺寸基板时，分别调小承置块11之间的间距和托持块21之间的间距，避免发生因承置块11之间的间距或托持块21之间的间距过大基板4承载不稳的现象。当使用基板移送装置100移送大尺寸基板时，分别调大承置块11之间的间距和托持块21之间的间距，使承台1和托架2沿第一水平方向X的宽度尺寸与基板4相匹配，避免因承接基板4的面积过小而在基板4移送过程中发生意外。
驱动源3用来驱动托架2移动，使托持块21的至少一部分插入承置块11之间的间隙，进而将承载在承台1上的基板4托起后移送至其他位置。上述动作过程请一并参照图2至图4。请一并参图5，托持块21进一步包括沿第一水平方向X设置在固定块20上的导引装置22，托持块21相对导引装置22滑动设置。承台1进一步包括沿第一水平方向X设置的导引装置12，承置块11相对导引装置11滑动设置。本实施例中，导引装置12、22均由一对互相平行的直线导轨120、220组成，承置块11、托持块21分别滑动套设在直线导轨120、220上；实际上导引方式是一种相对成熟的技术，使用者完全可以想到其他替代方式，但凡利用任何导引方式调节托持块之间的间距的方式都在本发明的保护范围之内。
导引装置22可以穿设在托持块21沿竖直方向的厚度的中心，如图1至图5所示；亦可以固定在固定块20上或者与固定块20一体成型，位于托持块21的下方，如固定块20和导引装置22之一上设置滑槽、另一设置与滑槽匹配的滑轨（未图示）；以上设置均可以使托持块21相对导引装置滑动，从而达到调节托持块21之间间隙、调整托架2支撑基板4的宽度的目的。
导引装置12优选设置在承置块11上远离托架2的端部；以免托架2的托持块21插入承置块11之间的间隙时碰触到导引装置12使托持块21的操作不顺畅。进一步地，导引装置12优选设置在承置块11上靠近底部的位置处，当承置块11沿竖直方向的厚度大于托持块21沿竖直方向的厚度时，托持块21插入承置块11之间的间隙不会碰触位于承置块11底部的导引装置12。
请一并参照图6A和图6B，为了精确调整承置块11之间的间距和托持块21之间的间距，直线导轨120、220上还进一步设置刻度，方便快速、准确调整承置块11之间的间距和托持块21之间的间距。
移送基板4的过程中，为了减少承载于托架2上的基板4倾斜、坠落的发生几率，托持块21上设置用于定位基板4的定位件211。请参图5，在本实施例中，定位件211包括一组第一回路真空吸嘴212和一组第二回路真空吸嘴213；同一托持块21上的第一回路真空吸嘴212与第二回路真空吸嘴位于一条直线上，且第一回路真空吸嘴212与第二回路真空吸嘴213间隔设置。第一回路真空吸嘴212连接第一抽真空通道（未图示），第二回路真空吸嘴213连接第二抽真空通道（未图示）。
当托架2托起基板4时，通过第一回路真空吸嘴212和第二回路真空吸嘴213共同将基板4的液晶显示器件41吸紧并将其在托架2上定位；使用中，当其中的一组单一回路吸嘴吸力不是很强时，另一组回路吸嘴仍然能够对基板4的液晶显示器件41提供固定基板4所需要的吸力，提高搬运过程中基板4的稳定性，进而减少因基板4倾斜、坠落等导致的停机维护时间，大幅提高设备的生产效率。
请一并参图1至图4，本实施例中驱动源3是机械手臂。驱动源3与托架2的固定块20相连，控制托架2的托持块21进出承置块11之间的间隙并将承置于承置块11上的基板4移送至其它位置。
本发明的有益效果是：本发明基板移送装置100的承台1临时承接待移送的基板4，托架2在驱动源3的驱动下发生位移将承接在承台1上的基板4抬起并移送至其他位置，该移送过程自动化程度高；且在基板移送过程中液晶显示器件41周侧的电路板42亦被托持块21承接，放置基板4过程中不会出现电路板下垂阻碍基板4放置顺畅性的现象。
以上所述仅为本发明的实施例，并非因此限制本发明的专利范围，凡是利用本发明说明书及附图内容所作的等效结构或等效流程变换，或直接或间接运用在其他相关的技术领域，均同理包括在本发明的专利保护范围内。
