[0028] A method for using a PCB circuit board spray etcher comprises the following steps: S1. When spray etching is performed on a circuit board, the etching device 101 operates the first motor 1041 to drive the rotating shaft 1044 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 1044 drives the worm 1043 to rotate. The worm 1043 and the worm wheel 1032 drive each other, so that the worm wheel 1032 drives the polygonal cylinder 1031 to rotate, and the polygonal cylinder 1031 drives the conveying wheel 1036 to rotate, so that the conveying wheel 1036 conveys the circuit board to the etching device 101.

The polygonal tube 1031 drives the first spring 1037 to deform. When the convex surface of the cam 1045 moves away from the pulley 1035, the first spring 1037 drives the polygonal tube 1031 to reset.

S3.
