Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of printed circuit board processing, and in particular to a circuit board flattening device. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of the circuit board industry, the electronic components mounted on high-end handheld electronic consumer products are getting smaller and smaller, and the requirements for the flatness of the circuit board surface during the mounting process are getting higher and higher.

[0003] During the production process of printed circuit boards, it is necessary to press together metal aluminum plates and multi-layer aluminum substrates. However, due to the large difference in the properties of metal aluminum and aluminum substrates, the expansion and contraction are inconsistent during pressing, and the internal stacking structure is asymmetrical, which easily causes the seesaw problem. In order to solve the seesaw problem, the circuit board needs to be flattened. The common method of flattening a circuit board is to clamp the corners of the circuit board, and then use a roller to flatten it. The roller rolls on the circuit board, and when it rolls to the corner, it contacts the clamping device. However, the roller is in the shape of a drum. After contacting the clamping device, part of the corner of the circuit board cannot contact the roller, affecting the flattening effect of the roller on the corner of the circuit board. Summary of the invention

The content of this application is not intended to identify the key features or essential features of the technical solution claimed for protection, nor is it intended to limit the scope of the technical solution claimed for protection.

[0005] In order to solve the technical problems mentioned in the above background technology section, some embodiments of the present application provide a circuit board flattening device, including a base, a cylinder fixed on the base, an adjusting mechanism fixed on the base, and a flattening mechanism fixed on the cylinder; the flattening mechanism includes a rotating assembly fixed on the cylinder, a pressing roller assembly fixed on the rotating assembly, and a closing assembly slidably arranged on the rotating assembly. The base is placed on the ground; the cylinder can push the flattening mechanism to move in the vertical direction; the adjusting mechanism is used to limit the flattening mechanism, thereby realizing the function of adjusting the flattening thickness; the rotating assembly can rotate when moving downward, driving the pressing roller assembly to rotate, so that the pressing roller assembly can make a circular motion on the circuit board to flatten the corners of the circuit board; the pressing roller assembly can flatten the corners of the circuit board and can move in the vertical direction; the closing assembly can close the fourth slide groove after the rotating assembly rotates a certain angle, so that the bottom of the second rotating seat forms a plane to flatten the entire circuit board.

[0006] Specifically, the adjustment mechanism includes a placement seat fixed on the base, a first slide groove symmetrically arranged on the placement seat, a first mounting groove symmetrically arranged on the placement seat, a second mounting groove fixed on the placement seat, a limit plate slidably arranged on the first slide groove, and a lifting device arranged on the first mounting groove and the second mounting groove. The placement seat is fixed on the base and is used to place the circuit board; the limit plate is slidably arranged on the first slide groove, and a square through hole is arranged in the middle of the limit plate. The circuit board passes through the through hole and is placed on the placement seat. The lifting device is used to adjust the height of the limit plate, thereby limiting the flattening mechanism, that is, adjusting the flattened thickness of the circuit board.

[0007] Specifically, the lifting device includes a first adjusting rod fixed on the limiting plate and passing through the first mounting groove, a first gear rotatably arranged on the first adjusting rod, a second adjusting rod rotatably arranged on the placement seat, a second gear fixedly arranged on the second adjusting rod, a third gear fixedly arranged on the second adjusting rod, a chain sleeved on the third gear, and a handle fixedly arranged on the second adjusting rod.

[0008] Specifically, the rotating assembly includes a first rotating seat fixed on the cylinder, a plurality of first rotating blocks fixed on the first rotating seat, a plurality of first telescopic rods fixed on the first rotating seat, a second rotating seat rotatably mounted on the first telescopic rod, a second slide groove fixed on the second rotating seat, and a plurality of second rotating blocks fixed on the second rotating seat; the first rotating seat and the second rotating seat are connected by a first spring. The first rotating seat is fixed on the cylinder and cannot rotate, and the first rotating block is provided with an inclined surface; the first telescopic rod is used to connect the first rotating seat and the second rotating seat; in the initial state, the second rotating seat does not contact the first rotating seat, and the second rotating seat is larger than the through hole on the limit plate; the second rotating block is provided with an inclined surface, and the first rotating block and the second rotating block are staggered; one end of the first telescopic rod can slide on the second slide groove; the first spring is a truncated cone volute spring used for resetting the second rotating seat; the cylinder drives the first rotating seat to move downward, and the second rotating seat is fixed on the first telescopic rod, so the second rotating seat will also descend synchronously. When the inclined surface of the first rotating block contacts the inclined surface of the second rotating block, the first rotating block will push the second rotating block to rotate during the downward movement, and then push the second rotating seat to rotate, the first spring is twisted, and the first telescopic rod slides on the second slide groove.

[0009] Specifically, the pressure roller assembly includes a plurality of third slide grooves fixedly arranged on the second rotating seat, a second mounting groove fixedly arranged on the third slide groove, a pressure roller seat slidably arranged on the third slide groove, and a roller rotatably sleeved on the pressure roller seat; the pressure roller seat and the second mounting groove are connected by a second telescopic rod; the pressure roller seat and the second mounting groove are connected by a second spring. The pressure roller seat can slide along the third slide groove; the roller can rotate on the pressure roller seat, and when the second rotating seat rotates, it will drive the pressure roller seat to rotate, thereby causing the roller to roll and flatten the circuit board; the second spring is used to reset the pressure roller seat; the second telescopic rod limits the movement of the pressure roller seat to ensure that the pressure roller seat is always perpendicular to the second rotating seat.

[0010] Specifically, the closing assembly includes a fourth slide fixed on the second rotating seat, a closing plate slidably arranged on the fourth slide, a groove fixed on the second rotating seat, and a limit groove fixed on the second rotating seat; the closing plate and the fourth slide are connected by a third spring; the closing plate and the first rotating seat are connected by a traction rope. The fourth slide is provided with an inclined surface; the limit groove is provided with two inclined surfaces; the closing plate is provided with three inclined surfaces, the inclined surface on the left side can cooperate with the inclined surface on the fourth slide, and the two inclined surfaces on the right side cooperate with the two inclined surfaces on the limit groove; the third spring is a compression spring, which is used to push the closing plate to move and is compressed in the initial state; the traction rope is used to reset the closing plate and is in a tight state in the initial state.

[0011] The cylinder pushes the first rotating seat to move downward, and the second rotating seat is fixed on the first telescopic rod, so the second rotating seat will also descend synchronously. When the roller contacts the circuit board, the first telescopic rod will be squeezed and contracted, the distance between the first rotating seat and the second rotating seat will be shortened, the first spring will be compressed, the traction rope will be relaxed, and the third spring will push the closing plate to slide on the fourth slide groove, but the pressure roller seat has not been retracted at this time, so one end of the closing plate will resist the pressure roller seat, and when the inclined surface of the first rotating block contacts the inclined surface of the second rotating block, the first rotating block will push the second rotating block to rotate during the downward movement, and then push the second rotating seat to rotate, the first spring will be twisted, the first telescopic rod will slide on the second slide groove, and the second rotating seat will drive the pressure roller seat when rotating. The roller rotates together with the roller seat, and the roller itself rotates on the roller seat. During the rotation process, the roller will flatten the corners of the circuit board. After rotating a certain angle, the third spring is compressed to a certain extent, the roller seat and the closing plate are misaligned, and the third spring pushes the closing plate to move. The inclined surface on the right side of the closing plate facilitates the contact between the closing plate and the roller. The third spring pushes the right side of the closing plate to completely enter the limiting groove. At this time, the inclined surface on the left side of the closing plate also fully fits the inclined surface on the fourth slide. At the same time, the second spring will also apply a downward force to the roller seat. This force is transmitted to the closing plate through the roller, so that the closing plate is more closely attached to the limiting groove, and then the bottom surface of the second rotating seat forms a plane, flattening the circuit board as a whole. When resetting, the cylinder drives the first rotating seat to move upward, the first spring will reset and drive the second rotating seat to rotate in the opposite direction to reset, and at the same time, the traction rope is stretched, driving the closing plate back to the fourth slide, the third spring is compressed, and the second spring resets and pushes the roller seat to move downward to reset.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0013] (1) The circuit board is not clamped, which avoids the problem that a part of the corners of the circuit board cannot contact the roller, resulting in the corners of the circuit board cannot be flattened.

[0014] (2) Compared with a single roller, the present invention can flatten the edges and corners of the circuit board synchronously, and the flattening is more uniform.

[0015] (3) After flattening the corners, the roller can be automatically retracted, so that the bottom of the second rotating seat is a completed plane, and the circuit board can be flattened as a whole. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
