Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of integrated circuit boards, specifically to a pin cutting device for testing integrated circuit boards. Background Technology

[0002] An integrated circuit is a miniature electronic device or component. Using specific processes, transistors, resistors, capacitors, inductors, and other components required for a circuit, along with interconnecting wiring, are fabricated on one or several small pieces of semiconductor wafers or dielectric substrates, and then packaged in a casing to form a miniature structure circuit with the required circuit function.

[0003] Currently, integrated circuit board pins are divided into surface mount type and leaded type. Leaded type pins are often used because of their reliable connection and low price. However, when the pins are uniformly cut during the assembly and testing of integrated circuit boards, it is easy to cause inconsistent cutting and loose solder joints. Therefore, a device for uniformly cutting pins to prevent loose solder joints was designed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a pin cutting device for testing integrated circuit boards, which solves the problems of inconsistent pin lengths causing electrostatic discharge and damage to the integrated circuit board during cutting, damage to solder joints due to pressure and shaking during pin cutting, and the inability to cut densely packed pins individually.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a pin shearing device for testing integrated circuit boards, comprising a contact sleeve, an extension tube threadedly connected to the surface of the contact sleeve, a guide ring fixedly connected to the upper end of the extension tube, a broken track ring fixedly connected to the upper end of the guide ring, a rotating ring rotatably connected to the outer side of the broken track ring, a force plate slidably connected to the inner groove of the broken track ring, a limit block fixedly connected to one end of the force plate away from each other, the limit block slidably connected to the broken track ring, a contraction spring fixedly connected to one side of the limit block away from each other, the contraction spring being located in the inner groove of the force plate, the end of the contraction spring away from the limit block being fixedly connected to the rotating ring, a press button fixedly connected to one end of the force plate away from each other, a descending chamber fixedly connected to the upper end of the broken track ring, a guide rail fixedly connected to the outer surface of the descending chamber, the rotating ring rotatably connected to the guide rail, and a housing fixedly connected to the upper end of the descending chamber. A power motor is fixedly connected to the inside of the housing. A toothed bar is fixedly connected to the output end of the power motor. A power bar meshes with the surface of the toothed bar. A cutting body is fixedly connected to the lower end of the power bar. The cutting body is slidably connected to the lowering chamber. The surface of the cutting body is slidably connected to the guide ring. The surface of the cutting body is in contact with the force plate. A positioning clamp is fixedly connected to the inner groove of the housing. A positioning wheel is rotatably connected to the lower end of the positioning clamp. A bevel gear is fixedly connected to the upper end of the positioning wheel. The bevel gear meshes with the toothed bar. A rotating plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the positioning wheel. The surface of the rotating plate is rotatably connected to the housing. Push frames are fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating plate. The lower end of the push frame is engaged with the force plate. The push frame is slidably connected to the guide rail. A toothed column is fixedly connected to the lower end of the positioning wheel. A toothed plate meshes with the outer surface of the toothed column. A stabilizing clamp is fixedly connected to the end of the toothed plate that is far apart from each other. A guide rod is slidably connected to the upper end of the stabilizing clamp. The guide rod is fixedly connected to the housing.

[0006] Preferably, the broken track ring is circular in shape, with two grooves on the circumference of the ring, and a square hole on the circumference of the ring, through which the grooves and the square hole pass.

[0007] Preferably, the center of the gear bar is a cylindrical central shaft, with teeth at both ends of the central shaft, and a bevel gear is fixedly connected in the middle of the central shaft.

[0008] Preferably, the power bar consists of two "U"-shaped grooves, with teeth on one side of the inner side of the "U"-shaped groove that mesh with the toothed bar, and the other side of the inner side of the "U"-shaped groove being a flat surface.

[0009] Preferably, the upper end of the cutting body is a limiting block, which slides inside the lower chamber. The lower end of the limiting block is fixedly connected to a cutting claw. There are three cutting claws in each group. The inner side of the lower end of the cutting claw is fixedly connected to a cutting tooth. The outer side of the cutting claw is arc-shaped and the cutting claw is in contact with the guide ring.

[0010] Preferably, there are two sets of stabilizing clamps. The stabilizing clamps are L-shaped with a round hole at the top. The stabilizing clamps and the cutting body are at a 90-degree angle.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. This integrated circuit board testing pin cutting device directly contacts the circuit board through a contact sleeve to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) from damaging the circuit board caused by external metal. By controlling the pin length through an extension tube, the pins on the circuit board can be of uniform length, thus preventing ESD from being generated during contact. This solves the problem of inconsistent pin lengths and ESD damage to the integrated circuit board during cutting.

[0013] 2. The integrated circuit board test pin cutting device uses a stabilizing clamp to fix the protruding pin, preventing the pin from repeatedly bending and folding during cutting. The cutting body clamps the pin, and the pin is controlled by a pressing key during cutting, achieving the effect of fixing the pin before cutting. This solves the problem of damage to the solder joints due to pressure shaking during pin cutting.

[0014] 3. The integrated circuit board test pin cutting device is directly fitted onto the outside of the pins through a cylindrical shape, allowing the device to be used in confined spaces. By squeezing the cutting body with a force plate, the pin cutting time can be controlled, avoiding the situation where cutting is performed directly without adjusting the height. This achieves the effect of still being applicable even when the pin gap is too small, and solves the problem of pins being too dense to be cut individually. Attached Figure Description
