Substrate pickup tool, substrate assembly station and substrate installation method

A substrate assembly station, used to install a substrate having a through hole onto an assembling part, the substrate assembly station comprising:

• a support device, comprising a support surface and a carrier, wherein the support surface and the carrier are used to support the substrate and the assembling part, respectively;
• a transfer mechanism, disposed on the support device and provided with a movable portion movable relative to the support device;
• and
• a substrate pickup tool, comprising:
• a gripper frame, disposed on the movable portion of the transfer mechanism;
• and
• a flexible gripper, comprising an annular mount portion and a plurality of claw portions, wherein the annular mount portion is mounted on the gripper frame, the plurality of claw portions are connected to the annular mount portion and each has an outer contact surface, the flexible gripper is used to correspond to the through hole of the substrate, and the plurality of claw portions are driven to move relative to the annular mount portion and press against an inner wall surface of the through hole via the outer contact surface of each of the plurality of claw portions for picking up the substrate and moving the substrate onto the assembling part via the transfer mechanism.

A substrate installation method, comprising:

• holding a substrate via at least one outer contact surface of a flexible gripper of a substrate pickup tool;
• lifting up the substrate pickup tool;
• and
• moving the substrate pickup tool to stack the substrate onto an assembling part.
