The motor pulley group 707 is provided on each of the clamping frames 705, and the motor pulley group 707 can drive each of the clamping rollers 706 in the same group of the clamping frames 705 to rotate; the adjustment component 8 is symmetrically arranged on each of the guide plates 201, and the adjustment component 8 can adjust the clamping distance between the clamping frames 705 through the mounting frame 704.

[0021] like Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, the adjustment component 8 includes a cylinder 801, a telescopic rod 802 and a spring 803. The front mounting frame 704 is slidably connected to the guide plate 201. The cylinder 801 is symmetrically installed on the lower side of each guide plate 201. The cylinder 801 is connected to the mounting frame 704 through the telescopic rod 802. A spring 803 is arranged between the mounting frame 704 and the clamping frame 705. The cylinder 801 can adjust the interval between the two mounting frames 704 through the telescopic rod 802, so that the clamping roller 706 in the clamping frame 705 can adapt to and clamp circuit boards 100 of different sizes.

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the guide frame 701 is provided with a flip assembly 11, and the flip assembly 11 includes a servo motor 111, a third screw 112, a one-way gear 113 and a rack 114. The servo motor 111 is symmetrically installed at the top of the guide frame 701 at the front and rear positions, respectively. The third screw 112 is rotatably installed inside each guide frame 701. The servo motor 111 is connected to the third screw 112 through a coupling. The third screw 112 is threadedly connected to the clamping member 702.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a width measuring component 12, which includes a mounting frame 121, a width measuring camera 122 and a controller 123. The mounting frame 121 is fixedly installed on the right side of the mounting plate 3. Two width measuring cameras 122 are provided and are respectively installed on the mounting frame 121. The two width measuring cameras 122 can measure the actual width of the circuit board 100. The controller 123 is arranged on the right side of the guide plate 201. The controller 123 is electrically connected to the cylinders 801 at the two locations. After the two width measuring cameras 122 measure the width of the circuit board 100 respectively, the measurement data is transmitted to the external terminal for processing. The processed information will be transmitted to the controller 123. The controller 123 finally controls the telescopic rod 802 of the cylinder 801 to extend and retract, so that the mounting frame 704, the clamping frame 705 and the clamping roller 706 can better adapt to and clamp the circuit board 100.

[0024] When the circuit board 100 screen printing solder mask flipping device is used to perform screen printing solder mask on the circuit board 100, the operator first pushes the circuit board 100 to be processed horizontally to the right side of the bracket 2. At this time, the two width measuring cameras 122 will measure the width of the placed circuit board 100, and the data measured by the width measuring camera 122 will be transmitted to the remote data processing terminal. The signal processed by the data processing terminal will be returned to the controller 123. At this time, the controller 123 that receives the signal will synchronously control the cylinders 801 at the two locations to work. The cylinder 801 drives the front installation frame 704 to move through the telescopic rod 802, and the moving installation frame 704 synchronously drives the clamping frame 705 and the clamping roller 706 to move as a whole. When the circuit board 100 is pushed between the clamping rollers 706 on the front and rear sides, the motor pulley group 707 is activated, and the motor pulley group 707 will drive the multiple clamping rollers 706 at the front and rear to rotate synchronously, so that the inserted circuit board 100 can be transported to a suitable processing position by the multiple clamping rollers 706 on both sides. At this time, under the action of the spring 803, the clamping rollers 706 on both sides can further stably clamp the circuit board 100 that has arrived at a suitable processing position, and then the drag chain slide module 6 is activated, and the drag chain slide module 6 will drive the inkjet machine 5 to translate left and right through the sliding frame 4, so that the inkjet machine 5 can move on the circuit board The painting work is completed on one side of 100. When the other side needs to be painted, the servo motor 111 is activated. The servo motors 111 on the front and rear sides drive the corresponding third screws 112 to rotate through the coupling. The third screws 112 rotating at the front and rear locations drive the sliding block 703 to move down on the corresponding guide frame 701 through the thread. At this time, the sliding block 703 moving down will synchronously drive the clamping member 702, the installation frame 704, the clamping frame 705 and the clamping roller 706 to move downward synchronously as a whole, until the downward one-way gears 113 on the front and rear sides are engaged with the corresponding racks 114, so that the one-way gear 113 drives the clamping member 702, the installation frame 704, the clamping frame 705 and the clamping roller 706 to flip 180 degrees as a whole, and then In this way, the circuit board 100 clamped by the clamping rollers 706 on both sides can be automatically turned over. Similarly, when the servo motor 111 reversely drives the circuit board 100 to rise, the rising one-way gear 113 will not be able to drive the circuit board 100 to turn over after engaging the rack 114, until the servo motor 111 reversely drives the circuit board 100 to rise and reset to the painting processing plane. The drag chain slide module 6 is activated again to drive the inkjet machine 5 to paint the other side of the circuit board 100 after it is turned over. When both sides of the circuit board 100 are sprayed, the clamping roller 706 is driven by the motor pulley group 707 to directly transport the painted circuit board 100 out for subsequent silk screen solder mask processing.

The positioning plate 903 is provided on the surface of the placement plate 902, and the positioning plate 903 is located near the top corner of the right rear side of the placement plate 902. The auxiliary frame plate 904 is placed on the surface of the placement plate 902. The limiting assembly 10 cooperates with the positioning plate 903 to limit the auxiliary frame plate 904, so that the auxiliary frame plate 904 can adapt to and support the circuit board 100 for silk screen solder masking; the auxiliary frame plate 904 is replaceably installed on the placement plate 902, and elastic rubber pads are provided on the clamping surfaces of the clamping rollers 706.

[0026] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the limiting assembly 10 includes a first motor 101, a first screw 102, a first limiting plate 103, a second motor 104, a second screw 105 and a second limiting plate 106, the first motor 101 is installed on the surface of the base plate 1, the first screw 102 is rotatably installed on the base plate 1, the first screw 102 is horizontally arranged on the base plate 1, and the output shaft of the first motor 101 is connected to the first screw 102, the first limiting plate 103 is slidably installed on the placement plate 902, the first limiting plate 103 is threadedly connected to the first screw 102, the placement plate 902 is provided with a sliding groove adapted to the first limiting plate 103, the second motor 104 is also installed on the surface of the base plate 1, the The second screw 105 is rotatably installed on the base plate 1, the first screw 102 is horizontally placed front and back on the base plate 1, and the output shaft of the second motor 104 is connected to the second screw 105, the second limit plate 106 is slidably installed on the placement plate 902, the second limit plate 106 is threadedly connected to the second screw 105, and the placement plate 902 is also provided with a sliding groove adapted to the second limit plate 106, the first motor 101 and the second motor 104 respectively drive the first limit plate 103 and the second limit plate 106 to move on the placement plate 902, so that the first limit plate 103 and the second limit plate 106 can adapt to the positioning plate 903 to limit and clamp the placed auxiliary frame plate 904.

[0027] Before silk-screen solder mask is performed on circuit boards 100 of different sizes, the operator first selects an auxiliary frame plate 904 that matches the size of the circuit board 100 and places it on the placement plate 902, first aligns one vertex of the auxiliary frame plate 904 with the positioning plate 903, and then drives the first screw 102 to rotate through the first motor 101, so that the first screw 102 threadably drives the first limiting plate 103 to be limited to the left side of the auxiliary frame plate 904, and at the same time drives the second screw 105 to rotate through the second motor 104, so that the second screw 105 threadably drives the second limiting plate 106 to be limited to the front side of the auxiliary frame plate 904, thereby limiting the placed circuit board 100 through the first limiting plate 103 and the second limiting plate 106, and at the same time cooperates with the positioning plate 903 to enable the circuit board 100 to be accurately positioned. On the placement plate 902, when the servo motor 111 drives the entire clamping assembly 7 to complete the flipping of the circuit board 100, the placement plate 902 is driven upward by the electric slide rail 901, so that the auxiliary frame plate 904 on the placement plate 902 can rise until the auxiliary frame plate 904 contacts and supports the lower surface of the circuit board 100. The servo motor 111 and the electric slide rail 901 cooperate with each other to enable the auxiliary frame plate 904 to be synchronously supported on the lower surface of the circuit board 100 until the circuit board 100 rises and the plane is processed. Then, the placement plate 902 and the auxiliary frame plate 904 are driven by the electric slide rail 901 to slide down synchronously and reset, ready to support and cooperate with the next flipped circuit board 100, thereby achieving continuous cooperation and separation between the auxiliary frame plate 904 and the circuit board 100.
