[0040] like Figure 1 , 3As shown in Figures 9 and 10, an embodiment of the present invention provides a PCB board insertion frame device, which is used to place a PCB board 50 in an electroplating process; further, it can be applied to a PCB board electroplating process where the frame thickness is greater than 0.025 mm. Specifically, the PCB board insertion frame device includes an insertion frame body 10, a driving component 20, and a rotating component 30. The insertion frame body 10 is provided with a plurality of placement areas 11 for placing the PCB board 50, and one side of the placement area 11 is provided with an abutment body 12 for abutting against the PCB board 50. The driving component 20 is mounted on the insertion frame body 10, and the driving end of the driving component 20 is connected to the rotating component 30. The driving component 20 drives the rotating component 30 to rotate close to the abutment body 12 to clamp the PCB board 50, or the driving component 20 drives the rotating component 30 to rotate away from the abutment body 12 to loosen the PCB board 50.

[0041] The following is a further description of the PCB board insertion frame device provided by the embodiment of the present invention: When the PCB board insertion frame device of the embodiment of the present invention is in use, the rotating component 30 is first located on a side away from the abutment body 12, and the operator places the PCB board 50 in the placement area 11 so that one side of the PCB board 50 abuts against the abutment body 12, and then the driving component 20 is started to drive the rotating component 30 to rotate, so that the rotating component 30 rotates toward the abutment body 12 until the rotating component 30 abuts against the PCB board 50, thereby clamping the PCB board 50, so that the PCB board 50 can be effectively prevented from shaking during storage; when the PCB board 50 needs to be taken out, the driving component 20 is started to drive the rotating component 30 to rotate, so that the rotating component 30 rotates away from the abutment body 12, which is convenient to use.

[0042] Furthermore, during the electroplating process, the plug-in frame body 10 loaded with the PCB board 50 is extended into the electroplating solution, wherein the portion of the plug-in frame body 10 extending into the electroplating solution does not contain metal, and the portion of the plug-in frame body 10 in contact with the electroplating solution is made of Teflon or fluororubber. The other portions of the plug-in frame body 10 are made of metal and a layer of Teflon material is sprayed on the surface.

[0043] In one embodiment, Figure 1 , 3As shown, the insert frame body 10 includes a bottom frame 13 and two side frames 14 respectively connected vertically to the two ends of the bottom frame 13, and the abutting bodies 12 are arranged on the two side frames 14 along a direction parallel to the bottom frame 13. Specifically, multiple rows of abutting bodies 12 can be arranged on each side frame 14 as needed, and a rotating assembly 30 is correspondingly provided at the position of each abutting body 12 to clamp the side of the PCB board 50. The bottom frame 13 is provided with a supporting groove 132 for supporting the PCB board 50 to support and position the PCB board 50 at the bottom. Among them, the bottom frame 13 includes a plurality of supporting bars 131 arranged side by side, and each supporting groove 132 is provided on the supporting bar 131. The two opposing abutting bodies 12 on the two side frames 14 and the corresponding supporting grooves 132 on the bottom frame 13 form a position for placing the PCB board 50.

[0044] Furthermore, the bottom frame 13 , the two side frames 14 , the driving assembly 20 and the rotating assembly 30 are all coated with Teflon material to protect the PCB board 50 during electroplating.

[0045] Furthermore, if Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the insertion frame body 10 further includes a plurality of connection bars 15 connected between the two side frames 14 , and each connection bar 15 is used to strengthen the structural strength of the connection between the two side frames 14 .

[0046] Furthermore, the abutting body 12 is preferably a Teflon elastomer, which can effectively protect the PCB board 50 during electroplating with the PCB board 50 .

[0047] In one embodiment, Figure 2 , 4 As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the rotating assembly 30 includes a clamping rod 31, one end of which is mounted on the driving end of the driving assembly 20, and the other end of the clamping rod 31 is located in the placement area 11. The driving assembly 20 drives the clamping rod 31 to rotate close to or away from the abutment body 12. Specifically, when the PCB board 50 is placed in the placement area 11, the clamping rod 31 is located at a position away from the abutment body 12, so that there is a wider opening between the clamping rod 31 and the abutment body 12, so that it is easy to place the PCB board 50 in the placement area 11; when clamping the PCB board 50, the driving assembly 20 drives the clamping rod 31 to rotate relative to the abutment body 12, so that the clamping rod 31 is located at one end of the placement area 11 to clamp the PCB board 50, thereby preventing the PCB board 50 from shaking in the placement area and preventing the adjacent PCB boards 50 from affecting the board surface quality due to mutual friction and collision.

[0048] In one embodiment, Figure 2 , 4As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, a buffer ring 32 is sleeved on one end of the clamping rod 31 located in the placement area 11 for contacting the PCB board 50. Specifically, when clamping the PCB board 50, the buffer ring 32 can be sleeved to make flexible contact between the clamping rod 31 and the PCB board 50, thereby preventing the clamping rod 31 from damaging the PCB board 50 during the clamping process, and achieving good use effect.

[0049] Furthermore, the buffer ring 32 is preferably an O-type rubber ring.

[0050] In one embodiment, Figure 2 , 4 As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the rotating assembly 30 further includes a rotating rod 33, which is rotatably mounted on the insert frame body 10, and the clamping rod 31 is mounted on the rotating rod 33. The driving end of the driving assembly 20 is connected to the rotating rod 33 and drives the rotating rod 33 to rotate. Specifically, both ends of the rotating rod 33 are hinged to the side frame 14 and are vertically arranged. The driving assembly 20 drives the rotating rod 33 to freely rotate relative to the side frame 14. During the rotation of the rotating rod 33, the clamping rod 31 is driven to rotate closer to or away from the abutting body 12. By setting a rotating rod 33, each rotating rod 33 corresponds to an abutment body 12. When the side frame 14 is provided with multiple rows of abutment bodies 12 in the vertical direction, each of the abutment bodies 12 corresponds to a plurality of abutment bodies 12 in the same column in the up and down direction. By setting a clamping rod 31 at a position corresponding to the abutment body 12 on the rotating rod 33, the rotating rod 33 can simultaneously drive each clamping rod 31 to rotate closer to or away from each abutment body 12 during the rotation process. Therefore, when the side of the PCB board 50 is clamped at multiple locations, the structure is simple, reliable, and easy to operate.

[0051] In one embodiment, Figure 7 , 8 As shown, the clamping rod 31 is vertically connected to the rotating rod 33. Specifically, by vertically connecting the clamping rod 31 to the rotating rod 33, the rotating rod 33 can drive the clamping rod 31 to rotate toward the PCB board 50 with maximum efficiency, and clamp the PCB board 50 with maximum force, thereby avoiding the component force acting on the PCB board 50 in the vertical direction when the clamping rod 31 is tilted.

[0052] In one embodiment, Figure 5 , 6As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 , the driving assembly 20 includes a push member 21 and a first elastic member 22 , one end of the first elastic member 22 is connected to the insertion frame body 10 , the other end of the first elastic member 22 is connected to one end of the push member 21 , and the other end of the push member 21 is connected to the clamping rod 31 . Specifically, the first elastic member 22 is arranged parallel to the abutment 12 and is located on a side away from the placement area 11. When driving the clamping rod 31 to rotate, by pressing the pressing member 21, one end of the pressing member 21 close to the first elastic member 22 is moved toward the abutment 12, and the end of the pressing member 21 connected to the clamping rod 31 is tilted and moved away from the abutment 12, thereby driving the clamping rod 31 to rotate away from the abutment 12 for placing the PCB board 50; after the PCB board 50 is placed, by canceling the force of pressing the pressing member 21, the elastic member automatically rebounds to drive the end of the pressing member connected to the clamping rod 31 to move toward the abutment 12, thereby driving the clamping rod 31 to rotate toward the abutment 12 to clamp the PCB board 50.

[0053] Furthermore, if Figure 5 , 6 As shown, the first sleeve 16 is provided on the insert frame body 10, the first sleeve 16 is parallel to the first elastic member 22, one end of the first elastic member 22 is installed in the first sleeve 16, and the other end of the first elastic member 22 is connected to the pressing member 21, so that the first sleeve 16 can be provided so that the first elastic member 22 will not be twisted when compressed by pressing the pressing member 21, and the first elastic member 22 is kept to have good resilience all the time. The first elastic member 22 is preferably a long strip spring.

[0054] Furthermore, when pressing the pressing member 21, the PCB board 50 can be manually retracted and released by pressing it manually; or the PCB board frame device can be applied to equipment for automatically producing PCB boards 50, and the pressing member 21 can be pressed by automatic control of the equipment to achieve automatic retraction and release of the PCB board 50.

[0055] In one embodiment, Figure 5 , 6As shown, the PCB board insertion frame device also includes a fixing assembly 40, and the fixing assembly 40 includes a fixing member 41 and a second elastic member 42. One end of the fixing member 41 is hinged to the insertion frame body 10, one end of the second elastic member 42 is connected to the insertion frame body 10, and the other end of the second elastic member 42 is connected to the other end of the fixing member 41. The fixing member 41 is used to clamp the end of the pressing member 21 close to the first elastic member 22. Specifically, when pressing the pressing member 21, the pressing member 21 is pressed to the fixing member 41 for clamping, so as to keep the pressing of the pressing member 21 on the first elastic member 22 and prevent the pressing member 21 from automatically rebounding. In this way, the operator does not need to continuously press the pressing member 21, and can release the pressing member 21 to put the PCB board 50 into the placement area 11. After the PCB board 50 is put in, the fixing member 41 is released from the pressing member 21, which is convenient to use. In the process of clamping the pressing member 21, the fixing member 41 is hinged on the insertion frame body 10 at one end away from the second elastic member 42, so that the end of the fixing member 41 can rotate freely relative to the insertion frame body 10, and the other end of the fixing member 41 is connected to the second elastic member 42. The second elastic member 42 provides tension so that the fixing member 41 can resist the pressing member 21 to achieve the purpose of fixing. Then the operator can press the end of the fixing member 41 close to the second elastic member 42 to squeeze the spring, so that the end of the fixing member 41 clamped with the pressing member 21 is tilted and disengaged from the pressing member 21, thereby releasing the pressing member 21.

[0056] In one embodiment, Figure 5 , 6 As shown, the fixing member 41 includes a pressing body 411 and a clamping body 412 connected to one end of the pressing body 411, the clamping body 412 is hinged on the insert frame body 10, the pressing body 411 is connected to the second elastic member 42, and the clamping body 412 is provided with a clamping tooth 4121 for clamping with the pressing member 21. Specifically, when clamping the pressing member 21, the operator first presses the pressing member 21 so that the pressing member 21 is clamped into the clamping tooth 4121. At this time, the clamping tooth 4121 clamps the pressing member 21 under the action of the second elastic member 42. Then, when the pressing member 21 needs to be released, the pressing body 411 is pressed to compress the second elastic member 42, so that the pressing body 411 drives the clamping body 412 to tilt and rotate away from the pressing member 21, until the clamping tooth 4121 is out of contact with the pressing member 21, and the pressing member 21 is released.

[0057] Furthermore, a second sleeve is provided on the insert frame body 10, the second sleeve is parallel to the first elastic member 22, one end of the second elastic member 42 is installed in the second sleeve, and the other end of the second elastic member 42 is connected to the pressing member 21, so that the second sleeve can be provided so that the second elastic member 42 will not be twisted when compressed by pressing the pressing body 411, and the second elastic member 42 always has good resilience. The second elastic member 42 is preferably a long strip spring.

[0058] In one embodiment, Figure 5 , 6 As shown, the engaging body 412 is provided with a guide slope 4111 for guiding the push member 21 to engage the engaging teeth 4121. Specifically, by providing the guide slope 4111, when the operator presses the push member 21, the push member 21 can be easily engaged with the engaging teeth 4121 along the guide slope 4111, which is easy and labor-saving and convenient to use.
