Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of etching fine circuits on circuit boards, in particular to a device for etching fine circuits on the surface of aluminum circuit boards. Background Art
[0002] Aluminum circuit board surface fine line etching equipment is a key equipment used to make fine lines on the surface of aluminum circuit boards. This type of equipment usually has the characteristics of high precision, high stability and high degree of automation.
[0003] Since aluminum circuit boards are often used in high-precision electronic products, the surface circuits are usually fine circuits with high precision requirements. For the etching of its fine circuits, the existing method is mainly through chemical etching, which uses acidic or alkaline chemical liquids to react chemically with the copper exposed on the aluminum circuit board, and the fine circuits are covered with a tin protective layer. After the etching is completed, the tin protective layer is removed to obtain the fine circuit.
[0004] Then, in the existing etching process, chemical etching is performed by spraying liquid, wherein the spraying methods include horizontal spraying and vertical spraying. The vertical spraying is better than the horizontal spraying, and the vertical spraying usually does not have a "pool effect". However, both of them will still produce different degrees of side corrosion. The main reason is that the copper section after etching of both is in contact with the chemical agent for a long time, which makes it difficult to manufacture high-precision fine circuits on the surface of the aluminum circuit board, and the scrap rate in the manufacturing process is high. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a fine circuit etching device on the surface of an aluminum circuit board to solve the problems raised in the background technology.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an aluminum circuit board surface fine line etching device, comprising a shell, an etching mechanism is fixedly installed on the inner side of the shell, a transport mechanism is fixedly installed on the inner side of the shell through a rectangular plate, an adsorption mechanism is movably connected to the transport mechanism, and a drainage mechanism is fixedly installed on the inner bottom of the shell;
[0007] The etching mechanism includes a driving component, a detection component, and a spray component. The driving component is fixedly installed on the inner side of the shell, the spray component is fixedly installed on the side of the driving component close to the transport mechanism, and evenly distributed detection components are fixedly connected on both sides of the driving component and on the outer side of the spray component;
[0008] The spray assembly includes a suction pipe, a spray pipe, a nozzle, and a suction head. The driving assembly is provided with a staggered suction pipe and a spray pipe on one side close to the transport mechanism. The spray pipe is connected to nozzles that are evenly distributed, and the suction pipe is connected to suction heads that are evenly distributed.
[0009] The adsorption mechanism includes an aluminum circuit board, and the aluminum circuit board is sprayed and sucked in an alternating manner through the staggeredly distributed nozzles and suction heads.
[0010] The shape of the liquid medicine sprayed outward by the nozzle is fan-shaped, and at the same time, the suction head draws the residual liquid medicine in the micro-circuit groove in the circuit board, and the circulation shape of the liquid medicine is also fan-shaped, so that the liquid medicine is concentrated from both sides of the micro-circuit groove in the circuit board to the suction head. In addition, because the nozzle and the suction head are staggered and evenly distributed in multiple groups, after multiple staggered spraying and liquid suction operations, and the aluminum circuit board and the spray assembly move towards each other, the contact time between the copper in the middle of the micro-circuit groove and the liquid medicine is increased, and the contact time between the copper on both sides of the micro-circuit groove and the liquid medicine is reduced, and the contact time between the copper in the micro-circuit groove and the liquid medicine is shortened as a whole; thereby effectively reducing the occurrence of side corrosion;
[0011] Furthermore, the transport mechanism includes a track frame, a guide rail, a chain, a sprocket, a motor 1, and a fixed frame. The track frame is arranged on the inner side of the outer shell, one side of the track frame is fixedly connected to the fixed frame, the motor 1 is fixedly mounted on the fixed frame, the four corners of the track frame are rotatably connected to sprockets, one corner of the sprocket is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 1, the outer side of the sprocket is rotatably connected to a rectangular plate, the rectangular plate is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the outer shell, one side of the track frame is fixedly connected to the guide rail, and the sprockets are connected by chain transmission.
[0012] Start motor 1, the output end of motor 1 drives the sprocket at one angle to rotate, and the sprocket at one angle rotates, and at the same time, through the transmission effect of the chain, drives the sprocket at the other angle to rotate synchronously, so that the chain rotates in a circular manner;
[0013] While the chain is rotating in a circular motion, the connecting plate drives the moving plate to roll on the outer side of the guide rail through the roller, so that the aluminum circuit board follows the chain to perform a circular motion.
[0014] Further, the adsorption mechanism includes a connecting plate, a roller, a moving plate, a fixed plate, a mounting frame, an air pump, a suction cup, and an aluminum circuit board.

[0015] An air pump is fixedly connected to the inner side of the mounting frame via a fixed connecting ring, and evenly distributed suction cups are fixedly mounted on the mounting frame. The air pump and the suction cups are connected via a hose, and the suction cups adsorb the aluminum circuit board.
[0016] Start the air pump to pump air into the evenly distributed suction cups through the hose, so that negative pressure is formed in the contact area between the suction cups and the aluminum circuit board, thereby firmly adsorbing the aluminum circuit board;
[0017] Furthermore, the driving assembly includes a workbench, a track plate, a second motor, a threaded rod, a sliding block, and a supporting platform. The inner side of the outer shell is fixedly connected to the workbench via a rectangular plate, the workbench is fixedly connected to the track plate on a side close to the transport mechanism, the upper end of the track plate is fixedly connected to the second motor, the output end of the second motor is fixedly connected to the threaded rod, the other end of the threaded rod is rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the track plate, the track plate is slidably connected to a sliding block, the sliding block is threadedly connected to the threaded rod, and the sliding block is fixedly connected to the supporting platform on a side close to the transport mechanism.
[0018] Furthermore, the detection assembly includes a connecting rod, an electric telescopic rod, an infrared sensor, a fixed block, and a track box. Evenly distributed connecting rods are fixedly connected on both sides of the workbench and on the outside of the spray assembly. The upper end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the track box. The two sides of the track box are fixedly connected to the electric telescopic rod, the other end of the electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the fixed block, and the other end of the fixed block is fixedly connected to the infrared sensor. The two groups of infrared sensors and fixed blocks slide on the inner side of the track box.
[0019] While the aluminum circuit board is gradually sprayed and etched upward, the external control system first controls the electric telescopic rod according to the thickness of the copper plate, and then drives the infrared sensors on both sides to move in the track box, so that the ray spacing between the infrared sensors on both sides is equal to the thickness of the copper plate. The two rays correspond to the two end points of the copper plate cross section. Each fine circuit groove on the aluminum circuit board passes through multiple groups of infrared sensors in turn. When the infrared sensor rays on both sides come into contact with copper, when the infrared sensor rays on both sides come into contact with the copper on the side section of the fine circuit groove at the same time, it proves that no side corrosion occurs.
[0020] When the infrared sensor rays on both sides contact the copper on the side section of the microcircuit groove at different times, the time difference between the contacts can be used to calculate the degree of side corrosion at this time according to the running speed of the aluminum circuit board and the spray assembly, and then the external control system can adjust the suction strength of the suction head in time to control the increase or decrease of the contact time between the copper in the middle of the microcircuit groove and the liquid medicine, and the increase or decrease of the contact time between the copper on both sides of the microcircuit groove and the liquid medicine;
[0021] Furthermore, the spray assembly also includes a connecting frame, a guide pipe, and an injection pipe. The connecting frame is fixedly connected to the side of the support platform close to the transportation mechanism. The connecting frame is fixedly connected to the spray pipe and the suction pipe. The spray pipe is connected to the injection pipe, and the suction pipe is connected to the guide pipe.
[0022] Start the second motor, which drives the threaded rod to rotate, so that the threaded rod drives the sliding block to slide downward along the second motor while rotating, and then drives the spray assembly to move downward synchronously, so that the spray assembly and the aluminum circuit board move toward each other;
[0023] When the aluminum circuit board intersects with the nozzle at the bottom, the external control system starts the external liquid supply device to pass the etching liquid into the injection pipe, so that the nozzle sprays the liquid on the aluminum circuit board in a fan shape. At this time, the aluminum circuit board and the spray assembly move towards each other and proceed at the same time;
[0024] Furthermore, the drainage mechanism includes a drainage component and a gravity component. The drainage component is fixedly installed on the inner bottom of the shell, and the side of the drainage component close to the transportation mechanism is connected to the gravity component.
[0025] Furthermore, the drainage assembly includes a drainage box, a honeycomb panel, a flow channel prosthesis, and a drainage suction cup. The inner bottom of the outer shell is fixedly connected to the drainage box, the inner side of the drainage box is fixedly connected to the honeycomb panel, the upper side of the drainage box is connected to evenly distributed drainage suction cups, the inner side of the honeycomb panel is provided with a flow channel prosthesis, the inner side of the honeycomb panel is provided with a flow channel corresponding to the flow channel prosthesis, and a cavity is provided between the upper inner side of the drainage box and the drainage suction cup.
[0026] Furthermore, the gravity component includes a support frame, a motor three, a wind tube, and a blower impeller.

[0027] Start the motor 3, which drives the impeller to rotate, so that it generates wind from the straight pipe to the wind tube, and then evacuates the air in the guide pipe. While evacuating the air in the guide pipe, a negative pressure is formed at the suction head connected thereto, and then the shell evacuates the residual liquid sprayed in the circuit board;
[0028] Furthermore, the straight-through pipe is connected to the flow guide pipe, and the outer bottom of the shell is connected to a drainage pipe.
[0029] While the guide pipe discharges the liquid medicine through the straight pipe and the wind tube to the bottom of the inner side of the shell, the straight pipe generates suction on the honeycomb panel. Since the straight pipe is connected with the flow channel of the flow channel prosthesis opened in the honeycomb panel, according to the principle of gas flow preferentially along the low-resistance path, the honeycomb panel produces a uniformly distributed downward suction force on the drainage suction cup, and then the drainage suction cup guides the liquid medicine mist generated by the upper spray to flow downward, avoiding the mist from staying on the aluminum circuit board for a long time and having an adverse effect on the circuit etching. The waste liquid medicine at the bottom of the inner side of the shell flows to the external collection device through the discharge pipe.
[0030] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an aluminum circuit board surface fine line etching device, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0031] 1. The aluminum circuit board surface fine circuit etching equipment realizes the purpose of fully automated vertical chemical spray etching of aluminum circuit boards through the cooperation between the transportation mechanism, the adsorption mechanism, the etching mechanism, and the drainage mechanism, which greatly improves the etching efficiency of the aluminum circuit board fine circuits. At the same time, through multiple staggered spraying and liquid suction operations, and the aluminum circuit board and the spray assembly move toward each other, the contact time between the copper in the middle of the fine circuit groove and the liquid is increased, the contact time between the copper on both sides of the fine circuit groove and the liquid is reduced, and the contact time between the copper in the fine circuit groove and the liquid is shortened as a whole; thereby effectively reducing the occurrence of side etching, solving the problem that the copper section after etching has a long contact time with the chemical agent, thereby making it difficult to manufacture high-precision fine circuits on the surface of the aluminum circuit board and the high scrap rate in the manufacturing process.
[0032] 2. The aluminum circuit board surface fine circuit etching equipment can monitor the side corrosion degree in the aluminum circuit board fine circuit groove in real time by detecting the contact between the infrared sensors on both sides of the component and the copper on the side section of the fine circuit groove. Through the real-time side corrosion degree data feedback, the suction strength can be adjusted in time accordingly, thereby controlling the contact time between the copper in the middle of the fine circuit groove and the chemical solution, and the contact time between the copper on both sides of the fine circuit groove and the chemical solution, thereby effectively avoiding the occurrence of side corrosion.
[0033] 3. The aluminum circuit board surface fine line etching equipment can evenly guide the liquid mist generated by the spraying to flow downward through the drainage mechanism, thereby preventing the mist from staying on the aluminum circuit board for a long time and causing adverse effects on the line etching.

Since the straight tube is connected with the flow channel of the flow channel prosthesis 513 opened in the honeycomb panel 512, according to the principle of gas flow preferentially along the low-resistance path, the honeycomb panel 512 produces a uniformly distributed downward suction force on the drainage suction cup 514, and then the drainage suction cup 514 guides the liquid medicine mist generated by the upper spray to flow downward, thereby preventing the mist from staying on the aluminum circuit board 38 for a long time and causing adverse effects on the circuit etching. The waste liquid medicine at the inner bottom of the shell 1 flows to the external collection device through the drainage pipe 6.
[0075] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:
[0076] When in use, firstly, the aluminum circuit board that needs to be etched with high-precision fine circuits is placed on the upper suction cup 37 through an external manipulator. After the placement is completed, the external control system starts the air pump 36, so that the air pump 36 exhausts air from the evenly distributed suction cup 37 through a hose, so that a negative pressure is formed in the contact area between the suction cup 37 and the aluminum circuit board 38, thereby firmly adsorbing the aluminum circuit board 38;
[0077] After the suction cup 37 firmly adsorbs the aluminum circuit board 38, the external control system starts the motor 1 25, and the output end of the motor 1 25 drives the sprocket 24 of one corner to rotate. While the sprocket 24 of one corner rotates, it drives the sprocket 24 of the other triangle to rotate synchronously through the transmission effect of the chain 23, so that the chain 23 rotates in a circular manner;
[0078] While the chain 23 is rotating in a circular motion, the connecting plate 31 is used to drive the moving plate 33 to roll on the outer side of the guide rail 22 through the roller 32, so that the aluminum circuit board 38 is driven to follow the chain 23 to perform a circular motion. When the aluminum circuit board 38 moves to the inner side of the housing 1 and changes its angle to be transported vertically upward;
[0079] The external control system starts the second motor 413, and the second motor 413 drives the threaded rod 414 to rotate, so that the threaded rod 414 drives the sliding block 415 to slide downward along the second motor 413 while rotating, and then drives the spray assembly 43 to move downward synchronously, so that the spray assembly 43 and the aluminum circuit board 38 move toward each other;
[0080] When the aluminum circuit board 38 intersects with the nozzle 436 at the bottom, the external control system starts the external liquid supply device to pass the etching liquid into the injection pipe 435, so that the nozzle 436 sprays the aluminum circuit board 38 with liquid in a fan shape. At this time, the aluminum circuit board 38 and the spray assembly 43 move towards each other and proceed at the same time;
[0081] While spraying, the external control system starts the motor 3 522, and the motor 3 522 drives the blower impeller 524 to rotate, so that it generates wind force from the straight pipe to the wind tube 523, and then evacuates the guide pipe 434. While evacuating the guide pipe 434, a negative pressure is formed at the suction head 437 connected thereto, and then the housing 1 pumps the residual liquid sprayed on the circuit board;
[0082] Since the shape of the liquid medicine sprayed outward by the nozzle 436 is fan-shaped, and the suction head 437 draws the residual liquid medicine in the fine circuit groove in the circuit board, the circulation shape of the liquid medicine is also fan-shaped, so that the liquid medicine is concentrated from both sides of the fine circuit groove in the circuit board to the suction head 437. In addition, since the nozzles 436 and suction heads 437 are staggered and evenly distributed in multiple groups, after multiple staggered spraying and liquid suction operations, and the aluminum circuit board 38 and the spray assembly 43 move towards each other, the contact time between the copper in the middle of the fine circuit groove and the liquid medicine is increased, and the contact time between the copper on the two sides of the fine circuit groove and the liquid medicine is reduced, and at the same time, the contact time between the copper in the fine circuit groove and the liquid medicine is shortened as a whole, thereby effectively reducing the occurrence of side corrosion.
[0083] While the aluminum circuit board 38 is gradually sprayed and etched upward, the external control system first controls the electric telescopic rod 422 according to the thickness of the copper plate, thereby driving the infrared sensors 423 on both sides to move in the track box 425, so that the ray spacing between the infrared sensors 423 on both sides is equal to the thickness of the copper plate, and the two rays correspond to the two end points of the copper plate cross section. Each fine circuit groove on the aluminum circuit board 38 passes through multiple groups of infrared sensors 423 in sequence. When the rays of the infrared sensors 423 on both sides come into contact with copper, when the rays of the infrared sensors 423 on both sides come into contact with the copper on the inner side section of the fine circuit groove at the same time, it is proved that no side corrosion occurs.
[0084] When the infrared sensor 423 rays on both sides do not contact the copper on the side section of the microcircuit groove at the same time, the time difference of the contact can be used to calculate the side corrosion degree at this time according to the running speed of the aluminum circuit board 38 and the spray assembly 43, and then the external control system can timely adjust the suction strength of the suction head 437 to control the increase or decrease of the contact time between the copper in the middle of the microcircuit groove and the liquid medicine, and the increase or decrease of the contact time between the copper on both sides of the microcircuit groove and the liquid medicine;
[0085] While the guide tube 434 discharges the liquid medicine through the straight tube through the wind tube 523 to the inner bottom of the shell 1, the straight tube generates suction on the honeycomb panel 512. Since the straight tube is connected with the flow channel of the flow channel prosthesis 513 opened in the honeycomb panel 512, according to the principle of gas flow preferentially along the low-resistance path, the honeycomb panel 512 produces a uniformly distributed downward suction force on the drainage suction cup 514, and then the drainage suction cup 514 guides the liquid medicine mist generated by the upper spray to flow downward, thereby preventing the mist from staying on the aluminum circuit board 38 for a long time and causing adverse effects on the circuit etching. The waste liquid medicine at the inner bottom of the shell 1 flows to the external collection device through the drainage pipe 6.
