A transmission gear 802 is provided at the end of the built-in column 801, and teeth 803 are meshed on the outer surface of the bottom of the transmission gear 802. A connecting component 9 for position conversion is installed in the middle of one side of the transmission gear 802, and the connecting component 9 includes a connecting shaft 901, a fixing plate 902 and a connecting plate 903. A fixing plate 902 is installed on the outer surface of the connecting shaft 901, and a connecting plate 903 is provided at the end of the fixing plate 902. The circuit board frame 10 is arranged at the end of the connecting plate 903. The servo motor 14 and the shaft body 12 can rotate the copper-plated frame 1, and the teeth 803 follow the rotation of the copper-plated frame 1, so that the teeth 803 are rotated. 03 will mesh with the transmission gear 802, so that the transmission gear 802 rotates around the built-in column 801, so that the entire connecting component 9 moves with it, which is conducive to the flipping of the circuit board frame 10 with the circuit board placed at the end of the connecting plate 903, wherein the copper plating frame 1 is provided with a conventional copper plating liquid and copper plating electrodes for copper plating the circuit board. During the flipping process of the circuit board frame 10, the copper plating liquid in the copper plating frame 1 can be stirred synchronously, which is conducive to the contact between the copper plating liquid and the circuit boards stacked in the circuit board frame 10, ensuring that the copper plating liquid is in full and uniform contact with the circuit boards in the circuit board frame 10, which is conducive to the uniform thickness of the copper plating of the special-shaped holes in the circuit board.

[0020] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a limiting component 11 for limiting the circuit board is installed inside the circuit board frame 10, and the limiting component 11 includes an internal frame 1101, a threaded rod 1102, a built-in groove 1103 and a positioning plate 1104.

By rotating the threaded rod 1102 clockwise or counterclockwise, the positioning plate 1104 outside the threaded rod 1102 can be controlled to move up or down in the built-in groove 1103, so that the circuit board placed in the internal frame 1101 can be limited. There are multiple groups of positioning plates 1104, and the multiple groups of positioning plates 1104 can be synchronously controlled to move downward by rotating the threaded rod 1102, so as to fix multiple groups of circuit boards with different thicknesses.

The teeth 803 of the copper plating frame 1 rotate and follow, so that the teeth 803 will mesh with the transmission gear 802, so that the transmission gear 802 rotates with the built-in column 801 as the center, so that the entire connecting component 9 follows, which is conducive to the flipping of the circuit board frame 10 with the circuit board placed on the end of the connecting plate 903. By flipping the circuit board frame 10, the circuit board after copper plating can be flipped to the inside of the drying frame 7, and the heating wire tube 15 can be used to dry the circuit board after copper plating. The structure is simple, and there is no need for the user to manually transfer between the copper plating operation area and the drying area.

When the drying frame 7 is used to dry the special-shaped holes of the circuit board, the slider 1603 and the cover plate 1604 can be slid into position through the design of the bottom frame 1602, so that the two groups of cover plates 1604 can seal the opening from the bottom of the drying frame 7, ensuring that the heat will not be dissipated too much when the drying frame 7 dries the copper-plated circuit board. In addition, excess copper plating liquid will fall to the surface of the cover plate 1604 and drip into the copper plating frame 1 through the leak hole 1605, which is convenient for collecting and using the copper plating liquid.

[0022] In summary, the circuit board shaped hole electroless copper plating device with uniform thickness is firstly based on Figure 1-Figure 5 The structure shown in the figure, when in use, by rotating the threaded rod 1102 clockwise or counterclockwise, the positioning plate 1104 outside the threaded rod 1102 can be controlled to move up or down in the built-in groove 1103, so that the circuit board placed in the built-in frame 1101 can be limited, wherein the positioning plates 1104 are provided with multiple groups, and the multiple groups of positioning plates 1104 can be synchronously controlled to move downward by rotating the threaded rod 1102, so as to fix multiple groups of circuit boards of different thicknesses, and then the copper-plated frame 1 can be rotated by the design of the servo motor 14 and the shaft 12, and the copper-plated frame 1 rotates the gear The tooth 803 moves with the gear 803, so that the tooth 803 will mesh with the transmission gear 802, so that the transmission gear 802 rotates with the built-in column 801 as the center, so that the entire connecting component 9 moves with the gear 803, which is conducive to the flipping of the circuit board frame 10 with the circuit board placed at the end of the connecting plate 903. The copper plating frame 1 is provided with a conventional copper plating liquid and a copper plating electrode for chemical copper plating of the special-shaped holes of the circuit board. During the flipping process of the circuit board frame 10, the copper plating liquid in the copper plating frame 1 can be stirred synchronously, which is conducive to the contact between the copper plating liquid and the circuit boards stacked in the circuit board frame 10, ensuring that the copper plating liquid and the electrodes in the circuit board frame 10 are in contact with each other. The circuit board is fully and evenly contacted, which is conducive to the uniform thickness of the copper plating of the special-shaped holes of the circuit board. Then, the copper plating frame 1 can be rotated through the design of the servo motor 14 and the shaft 12, and the teeth 803 of the copper plating frame 1 are rotated, so that the teeth 803 will mesh with the transmission gear 802, so that the transmission gear 802 rotates with the built-in column 801 as the center, so that the entire connecting component 9 follows, which is conducive to the flipping of the circuit board frame 10 with the circuit board placed at the end of the connecting plate 903. By flipping the circuit board frame 10, the circuit board after the copper plating is completed can be flipped to the inside of the drying frame 7, and the heating wire tube 1 can be used. 5 The circuit board after copper plating is dried. The structure is simple and there is no need for the user to manually transfer between the copper plating operation area and the drying area. Finally, when the drying frame 7 is used to dry the special-shaped holes of the circuit board, the slider 1603 and the cover plate 1604 can be slid into position through the design of the bottom frame 1602, so that the two groups of cover plates 1604 can seal the opening from the bottom of the drying frame 7, ensuring that the heat will not be dissipated too much when the drying frame 7 dries the circuit board after copper plating. In addition, the excess copper plating liquid will fall to the surface of the cover plate 1604 and drip into the copper plating frame 1 through the leak hole 1605.
