Description

Technical Field

[0002] Inkjet printing is a non-contact printing mode. The printing device does not need to be in physical contact with the printing substrate, so the material of the printing substrate is not limited. Commonly, inkjet printing can be applied to paper, wood, glass, crystal, metal plate, plastic (such as circuit board, etc.), etc.

[0003] At present, some printing equipment on the market includes a frame, a feeding module, a printing platform, a transfer module and a printing module. During the printing process, the printing substrate is stacked on the feeding module manually or by an external mechanism. The feeding module transports it to the set position, the printing platform moves to the bottom of the printing substrate, the transfer module grabs the printing substrate onto the printing platform, and the clamp on the printing platform clamps the printing substrate. After that, the printing platform drives the printing substrate to move to the printing station to facilitate the printing module to print. Among them, the same type of printing substrates are often clamped by a fixed displacement clamp.

[0004] During the process of realizing the present invention, the inventors of the present invention found that: in the actual production process, the sizes of the same type of printing substrates are inevitably different. When the size of the printing substrate is small, the clamp cannot be clamped.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the embodiment of the present invention are as follows: Different from the prior art, the embodiment of the present invention is provided with a frame, two first clamp assemblies, two first sensors and a control assembly. Among them, the frame is provided with a detection platform, the detection platform is provided with a detection area, the board to be detected is located in the detection area, the two first clamp assemblies are provided on the detection platform, the two first clamp assemblies are arranged oppositely and spaced apart along a first direction, the first clamp assembly includes a first clamp, the first clamp can move relative to the detection platform along the first direction, the two first clamps can approach each other or move away from each other along the first direction, the two first clamps move synchronously, the detection area is located between the two first clamps, a first sensor is provided on a first clamp, the first sensor can move with the first clamp along the first direction, the first sensor has the same initial position as the first clamp, and the first sensor is used to detect the board to be detected along the first direction.

At this time, the value of K1 is small, and the moving distance of the first clamp 201 from the initial position along the first direction X is small, indicating that the actual width of the PCB board to be detected along the first direction X is large, indicating that the actual width tolerance range of the PCB board to be detected along the first direction X exceeds the range allowed by the detection tolerance d1, and does not meet the standard width range of the PCB board to be detected along the first direction X.
