Flexible board touching and aligning device

Abstract

The invention provides a flexible board touching and aligning device. The flexible board touching and aligning device comprises board touching rods, elastic board touching pieces and a sensor, whereina plurality of elastic board touching pieces are fixed on the board touching rods, the elastic board touching pieces feed back a alignment state of a printed circuit board by making contact with theprinted circuit board, the sensor sends out a control signal according to the alignment state fed back by the elastic board touching pieces, and the board touching rods move according to the control signal sent out by the sensor, when a product is placed on an object storage plate, the board touching rods get close to each other, the elastic board touching pieces make contact with the edge of theprinted circuit board and drives the printed circuit board to move to a preset position, and the elastic board touching pieces trigger the sensor to send out the control signal to control the board touching rods to get away from each other. The flexible board touching and aligning device is accurate in positioning, low in waste board rate, high in working efficiency and suitable for multi-hole multi-notch PCBs.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of automation equipment, in particular to a flexible clapper alignment device. Background technique [0002] Printed Circuit Board (PCB) is an important electronic component, a support for electronic components, and a carrier for electrical connections of electronic components. In the production of printed circuit boards, it is often necessary to switch between different processes, and the functions of the equipment used in each process are different, so the running position of the printed circuit board needs to be adjusted. The traditional processing process generally requires manual assistance to retract and release the circuit boards one by one, and manually arrange and align the circuit boards, which cannot meet the increasing production capacity requirements; performance, and in the process of manual assistance, it is easy to cause problems such as scratches on the surface of the printed circuit board, thereby a...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the way of optical fiber sensing requires that the printed circuit board should not have a gap at the position of the optical fiber sensing point.

However, some special-process printed circuit boards have a gap at the position of the optical fiber sensing point. After the printed circuit board reaches the predetermined position, the optical fiber sensor still detects the gap, and it will mistakenly judge that the printed circuit board has not reached the predetermined position. The clapper lever continues to push the printed circuit board, causing the performance of the printed circuit board to be affected by extrusion, the clapper machine frequently reports errors, and the printed circuit board cannot be positioned, which affects subsequent processes, etc.

[0004] To sum up, the prior art has problems such as high scrap rate, low work efficiency, and inaccurate positioning at the same time or separately.
