[0043] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, the first conveying mechanism includes a plurality of first conveying rollers 4 installed on the housing 1.

The axial direction of the guide rods 53 is the same as the arrangement direction of the plurality of second conveying rollers 51, that is, the axial direction of the guide rods 53 extends in the left-right direction. The guide rods 53 are provided with variable pitch thread grooves 531, and the pitch of the variable pitch thread grooves 531 gradually decreases as it moves away from the first clamping frame 31, that is, the pitch of the variable pitch thread grooves 531 gradually increases from left to right. The arrangement direction of the plurality of support rods 54 is the same as that of the plurality of second conveying rollers 51, and the front and rear ends of the support rods 54 are respectively slidably sleeved on the outer peripheral side of the guide rods 53.

The plurality of second conveying rollers 51 are rotatably installed on the plurality of support rods 54 one by one. When the guide rods 53 are controlled to rotate forward, the clamping blocks will move to the right along the variable pitch thread grooves 531 and drive the support rods 54 and the second conveying rollers 51 to move to the right. Since the pitch of the variable pitch thread grooves 531 gradually increases from left to right, when the second conveying rollers 51 move to the right, the distance between adjacent two second conveying rollers 51 will gradually increase. On the contrary, when the guide rods 53 are controlled to rotate reversely, the second conveying rollers 51 will be driven to move to the left, and the distance between adjacent two second conveying rollers 51 will gradually decrease.

[0046] The circuit board 9 applicable to the present invention is: a via hole is provided at a position near one corner of the circuit board 9, and the via hole can be a blind hole or a through hole.

[0047] When loading the circuit board 9, in the initial state, the four clamping frames are in a state of being away from each other, and the multiple conveying rollers 2 51 in the conveying assembly are in a state of being retracted to the left. After the circuit board 9 is transferred to the support plate 2 by the transfer assembly 12, the four corners of the circuit board 9 will be respectively located at the four notches of the support plate 2. At this time, by controlling the driving member 1 to drive the threaded rod 1 63 and the threaded rod 2 64 to rotate, the two sliders 1 61 can be made close to each other and the two sliders 2 62 can be made close to each other, so that the clamping frame 1 31 and the clamping frame 3 33 can be made close to each other, and the clamping frame 2 32 and the clamping frame 4 34 can be made close to each other, until the four corners of the circuit board 9 are respectively inserted into the slots 7 of the four clamping frames, and each slot 7 is provided with a sensor for detecting the conductive hole.

[0048] The following is a specific description taking the conductive hole of a blind hole structure as an example. When the conductive hole is a blind hole, the opening of the conductive hole on the upper part of the circuit board 9 placed horizontally on the support plate 2 may be located on the upper surface near the right rear corner, on the lower surface near the left rear corner, on the upper surface near the left front corner, and on the lower surface near the right front corner. When the via hole is located on the upper surface near the right rear corner, the via hole corresponds to the telescopic end of telescopic member one 311. When the via hole is located on the lower surface near the left rear corner, the via hole corresponds to the telescopic end of telescopic member two. When the via hole is located on the upper surface near the left front corner, the via hole corresponds to the telescopic end of telescopic member three 331. When the via hole is located on the lower surface near the right front corner, the via hole corresponds to the telescopic end of telescopic member four 341.

[0049] When the sensor detects that the via hole is located on the upper surface near the right rear corner of the circuit board 9, the via hole is located in the slot 7 on the clamping frame 1 31. At this time, the telescopic member 1 311 is controlled to extend, and the telescopic end of the lower part of the telescopic member 1 311 is inserted into the via slot. Then the threaded rod 1 63 and the threaded rod 2 64 are controlled to rotate, so that the clamping frame 1 31 and the clamping frame 3 33 are separated from each other, and the clamping frame 2 32 and the clamping frame 4 34 are separated from each other. When the clamping frame 1 31 moves, it will drive the circuit board 9 synchronously. Move until the clamping frame 31 moves to the bottom of the rear conveying frame 52. At this time, the telescopic driving member 81 is controlled to extend, which will drive the clamping frame 31 to move upward until the bottom surface of the circuit board 9 is consistent with the height of the upper end of the conveying roller 51. At this time, the guide rod 53 is controlled to rotate forward to make the conveying roller 51 gradually move to the right. When the conveying roller 51 moves to the bottom of the circuit board 9, the conveying roller 51 is controlled to rotate and the guide rod 53 is controlled to reverse at the same time, so that the circuit board 9 can be conveyed to the left.

[0050] When the sensor detects that the via hole is located on the lower surface near the left rear corner of the circuit board 9, the via hole is located in the card slot 7 on the second clamping frame 32. At this time, the second telescopic member is controlled to extend, and the telescopic end of the upper part of the second telescopic member will be inserted into the conduction slot. Then, the first clamping frame 31 and the third clamping frame 33 are also moved away from each other, and the second clamping frame 32 and the fourth clamping frame 34 are moved away from each other. When the second clamping frame 32 moves, it will drive the circuit board 9 to move synchronously. At the same time, the second driving member 82 is controlled to operate, so that the second clamping frame 32 rotates 180° with the front-rear direction as the axis. After the second clamping frame 32 rotates 180°, the via hole on the circuit board 9 will be located on the upper surface near the right rear corner of the circuit board 9. And as the second clamping frame 32 moves, the circuit board 9 can be moved to the upper part of the first conveying roller 4. Then, the first conveying roller 4 is controlled to rotate self, and the circuit board 9 can be conveyed to the left.

[0051] When the sensor detects that the via hole is located on the upper surface near the left front corner of the circuit board 9, the via hole is located in the card slot 7 on the third clamping frame 33. At this time, the third telescopic member 331 is controlled to extend, and the telescopic end of the lower part of the third telescopic member 331 will be inserted into the conduction slot. Then, the first clamping frame 31 and the third clamping frame 33 are also moved away from each other, and the second clamping frame 32 and the fourth clamping frame 34 are moved away from each other. When the third clamping frame 33 moves, it will drive the circuit board 9 to move synchronously. At the same time, the third driving member is controlled to operate, so that the third clamping frame 33 rotates 180° with the vertical direction as the axis. After the third clamping frame 33 rotates 180°, the via hole on the circuit board 9 will be located on the upper surface near the right rear corner of the circuit board 9. And as the third clamping frame 33 moves, the circuit board 9 can be moved to the upper part of the first conveying roller 4. Then, the first conveying roller 4 is controlled to rotate self, and the circuit board 9 can be conveyed to the left.

[0052] When the sensor detects that the via hole is located on the lower surface near the right front corner of the circuit board 9, the via hole is located in the card slot 7 on the clamping frame four 34. At this time, control the telescopic member four 341 to extend, and the telescopic end of the upper part of the telescopic member four 341 will insert into the conduction slot. Then, similarly, make the clamping frame one 31 and the clamping frame three 33 move away from each other and make the clamping frame two 32 and the clamping frame four 34 move away from each other. When the clamping frame four 34 moves, it will drive the circuit board 9 to move synchronously until the clamping frame four 34 moves to the lower part of the front conveying frame 52. During the above process, control the driving member four 84 to operate, so that the clamping frame four 34 rotates 180° around the left-right direction as the axis. At this time, the via hole on the circuit board 9 will be located on the upper surface near the right rear corner of the circuit board 9. At the same time, control the telescopic driving member two 83 to extend, which will drive the clamping frame four 34 to move upward until it moves to the height where the bottom surface of the circuit board 9 is the same as the upper end of the conveying roller two 51. At this time, control the guide rod 53 to rotate forward, so that the conveying roller two 51 gradually moves to the right. When the conveying roller two 51 moves to the bottom of the circuit board 9, control the conveying roller two 51 to rotate self and at the same time control the guide rod 53 to rotate reverse, that is, the circuit board 9 can be conveyed to the left.

[0053] As can be seen from the above, the present invention can swap the positions of the circuit board 9 transferred to the support plate 2, so that the via holes are all located on the upper surface position near the right rear corner of the circuit board 9. Finally, the circuit board 9 is conveyed to the plug hole machine through the conveying mechanism one and the conveying mechanism two respectively, so that the device can distinguish the front and back sides of the circuit board 9, and at the same time, the circuit board 9 can be adjusted to the set placement position.

[0054] It can be understood that when the via hole is a through hole, the above technical solution can also be used to realize the adjustment and conveying of the circuit board 9.

[0055] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it can be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Those of ordinary skill in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present invention.
