With the popularity and application of electronic equipment, the application of PCB is becoming more and more wide.

[0003] When the existing device processes the PCB, the PCB needs to be grabbed from the feeding bin and transferred to the processing suction cup for accurate positioning. However, since multiple PCBs are stacked in the feeding bin, and the surface of the PCB is smooth and has high smoothness, the two PCBs are easily vacuum adsorbed. When the surface layer of the PCB is sucked, the second layer of the PCB will be lifted. Since the adsorption of the second layer of the PCB is unstable, the second layer of the PCB will randomly fall off, thereby causing a production accident. Even if the second layer of the PCB does not fall off during the conveying process, the positioning accuracy in the subsequent processing process will not meet the standard, thereby causing problems in processing accuracy and affecting product accuracy.

[0043] PCB (Printed Circuit Board), also known as printed circuit board, is an important electronic component, which is the support of electronic components and the carrier of electrical connection of electronic components. With the popularity and use of electronic devices, the application of PCB is becoming more and more widely.

[0044] The existing PCB to be processed is usually stacked in a feeding bin. Due to the weight of the PCB itself and the smooth and high-finish surface of the PCB material, the PCB materials are easily vacuum-sucked. When the PCBs need to be processed and transported, the vacuum-sucking between the PCBs will cause the upper PCB to take away the lower PCB during the transportation of the upper PCB. However, the suction capacity between the vacuum-sucked PCBs is unstable, which will cause the material to fall during the transportation of the PCBs. Even if the material does not fall, the double-layer PCBs will also cause problems in processing precision during the processing.

[0045] In view of the above technical problems, the present application provides a separating device 100, which separates the PCBs to be transported by setting a first separating assembly 20 and a second separating assembly 40, so as to avoid the problems of material falling and affecting processing precision in the subsequent process.

The separating device 100 is connected to an external lifting mechanism. The lifting mechanism is fastened to the fixing base 10 through screw fasteners penetrating the fixing holes, so that the fixing base 10 is fixedly mounted on the lifting mechanism and moves with the lifting mechanism.

[0048] In this way, since the entire separating device 100 is mounted based on the fixing base 10, the lifting mechanism can drive the separating device 100 to move by fastening the fixing base 10 to the lifting mechanism.

The number of the suction pieces 32 is multiple, and the multiple suction pieces 32 are adjustably mounted in the mounting grooves. In this embodiment, the number of the suction pieces 32 is thirty-six. The thirty-six suction pieces 32 are arrayed in the mounting grooves of the suction base 31, so that the suction assembly 30 can simultaneously suck four PCB boards.

[0056] In this way, the wing nut 324 and the fixing nut 325 clamp the suction base 31, so that the suction member 32 can be fixedly installed on the suction base 31, and the suction member 32 moves with the suction base 31.

[0057] It should be noted that the present application is not limited to the way that the wing nut 324 and the fixing nut 325 are twisted to fix the suction member 32 to the suction base 31, in other embodiments, the suction member 32 can also be fixed to the suction base 31 by buckling, as long as the suction member 32 can be fixedly installed on the suction base 31.

[0058] During the process that the suction assembly 30 sucks the PCB plate, in order to avoid that the suction assembly 30 sucks the mutually adsorbed PCB plates, the first separating assembly 20 is arranged on the fixed base 10, and is used for separating the mutually adsorbed PCB plates, wherein the first separating assembly 20 comprises a first driving member 21 and a connecting member 22, the first driving member 21 is fixedly installed on the fixed base 10, one end of the connecting member 22 is fixedly connected to the fixed base 10, and the other end of the connecting member 22 is fixedly connected to the suction assembly 30, and the first driving member 21 drives the suction assembly to move relative to the fixed base 10 through the connecting member 22.

[0060] In this way, by arranging the first driving member 21 on the fixing base 10 and enabling the first driving member 21 to drive the suction assembly 30 to reciprocate through the connecting member 22, the PCB plates adsorbed by the suction assembly 30 are separated from each other.

[0061] It should be noted that, in order to improve the separating efficiency of the mutually adsorbed PCB plates, the separating device 100 further comprises a sliding member 50 and a guide rail 60, the sliding member 50 is installed on the fixing base 10, the guide rail 60 is installed on the suction assembly 30, and the fixing base 10 and the suction assembly 30 can slide relative to each other through the cooperation of the sliding member 50 and the guide rail 60 by slidingly installing the sliding member 50 to the guide rail 60.
