Description

Testing and classification equipment for electronic component bearing unit and its application

The invention provides an electronic component placed in a receiving slot of a carrier, and the suction component is shifted to the side through the air flow channel opened on the side of the receiving slot to abut the reference surface inside the receiving slot. An electronic component carrying unit that corrects positioning so that the same batch of electronic components perform preset operations under the same reference conditions, thereby improving the quality of the operation.

At present, electronic components are becoming more and more precise, minute and numerous. Operators must use a carrier mechanism to transport multiple electronic components between different operating devices in order to improve production efficiency. For example, it can be designed according to the needs of the operation of the material transfer tool with a suction nozzle, or the material transfer tool with a suction nozzle and a trough, the material transfer tool and the robot arm to be transferred above the operating device, The material can release the electronic components separately, or the material moving device and the electronic components can be placed on an operating device (such as a dynamic test device) to perform a preset operation.

Please refer to FIGS. 1 and 2. The bearing mechanism 11 is provided with a robot arm 111 capable of displacement in the first, second, and third directions (such as X, Y, and Z directions), and a plurality of robot arms 111 are provided at one end. Extraction pieces 112 of each extraction duct 113. Two sides of the extraction piece 112 are provided with two clamping jaws 114. The two clamping jaws 114 clamp a moving material 115, and the bottom surface of the moving material 115 is provided with a plurality of recesses. Each of the receiving grooves 116 of the electronic component 12 can be received, and each of the receiving grooves 116 is provided with an exhaust hole 117. The plurality of exhaust holes 117 are connected to the exhaust channel 113 of the exhaust member 112 so that the exhaust member 112 can pass through the exhaust channel. 113 and the suction hole 117 to suck the electronic component 12 in the receiving slot 116 for positioning; however, in order to make the electronic component 12 easy to be placed in the receiving slot 116 of the transfer tool 115, the size of the receiving slot 116 is slightly larger than the size of the electronic component 12. However, it causes the electronic component 12 to be easily placed in a slight horizontal angle deflection in the receiving groove 116. Since the exhaust hole 117 is opened on the top surface of the receiving groove 116, whether the electronic component 12 is normally placed or the horizontal angle deflection is placed in the bearing In the groove 116, the exhaust hole 117 directly adsorbs the top surface of the electronic component 12, and positions the electronic component 12 in The material 115 is driven by the robot arm 111 and the electronic component 12 is moved in the X-Y-Z direction. Move to the working device (not shown).

In addition, electronic components must undergo multiple processing processes during the production process. After the production is completed, in order to ensure product quality, the industry conducts testing operations on electronic components with testing institutions to eliminate defective electronic components; micro-sensing Electronic components are used as an example. When they are applied to electronic products, they will perform dynamic angular rotation. Therefore, the industry will make the micro-sensing electronic components perform dynamic test operations. The measured micro-sensing electronic components are placed on the testing mechanism together, and the testing mechanism is used to drive the material moving device and the micro-sensing electronic components to be tested for synchronous angular rotation to perform dynamic testing operations, and then perform dynamic testing operations. At the same time, the placement angles of multiple micro-sensing electronic components in the same batch in the plurality of receiving slots of the material transfer device must also be the same to perform the dynamic test operation under the same reference conditions. Conversely, if multiple micro-sensing The placement angle of the measuring electronic components in the plurality of slots is different, that is, the dynamic test operation cannot be performed under the same reference conditions, which affects Test quality.

Please refer to FIGS. 3 and 4, which are schematic diagrams of the application of the load bearing mechanism 11 to the test mechanism 13.

Pressing fixtures 136 are provided on the sides to clamp the material transfer device 115 and the test base 134 respectively. During operation, the robot arm 111 of the carrier mechanism 11 places the material transfer device 115 and the micro-sensing electronic component 14 on On the test base 134, the contact 141 of the micro-sensing electronic component 14 is electrically connected to the probe set 135 of the test base 134, and the pressing fixture 136 of the test mechanism 13 presses the material transfer tool 115 and the test base 134, and Position the transfer tool 115 and use the probe set 135 of the test base 134 to abut against the micro-sensing electronic component 14. The gripper 114 of the carrier mechanism 11 then releases the transfer tool 115, and the power source 131 of the test mechanism 13 is Can drive the circuit board 133, the test base 134, the transfer tool 115, and the micro sense through the frame base 132 The electronic component 14 synchronously performs angular rotational movement, so that the micro-sensing electronic component 14 performs dynamic testing operations; however, since the exhaust hole 117 of the material transfer tool 115 of the bearing mechanism 11 is opened on the top surface of the receiving groove 116, regardless of the micro-sensing Whether the electronic component 14 is normally placed or placed at a horizontal angle in the receiving groove 116, and the exhaust holes 117 will directly attract the micro-sensing electronic component 14 It is positioned on the top surface. When the plurality of receiving grooves 116 of the transfer tool 115 carry a batch of a plurality of micro-sensing electronic components 14, if some of the micro-sensing electronic components 14 are horizontally deflected and placed in the receiving groove 116, In some cases, the suction hole 117 still directly adsorbs and positions the micro-sensing electronic component 14, which will result in inconsistent positioning angles of the plurality of micro-sensing electronic components 14 in the transfer tool 115, which not only easily causes the probe of the test base 134. The group 135 cannot accurately align the contacts 141 of the micro-sensing electronic components 14, which also makes it impossible for a batch of multiple micro-sensing electronic components 14 to perform dynamic test operations under the same reference conditions, resulting in a lack of varying test quality.
