DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present invention more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this embodiment provides a PCB pad protection system, including a transportation line 1, on which a pad protection device 2 is placed, and the pad protection device 2 includes a magnetic buckle 3; a production line 4 is arranged on one side close to the transportation line 1, and a PCB 5 is placed on the production line 4, and the production line 4 drives the PCB 5 to move; disassembly and assembly mechanisms 6 are respectively arranged at both ends of the production line 4 close to the transportation line 1, and the disassembly and assembly mechanisms 6 are used to change the adsorption state of the magnetic buckle 3 so that the magnetic buckle 3 adsorbs or releases the PCB 5.

[0030] The transport line 1 is an arc-shaped transport line 1, and both ends of the transport line 1 are located below the production line 4. The first end of the transport line 1 is close to the first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6, and the second end of the transport line 1 is close to the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6. The first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 is used to install the pad protection device 2, and the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 is used to disassemble the pad protection device 2. The transport line 1 is responsible for transporting the pad protection device 2 disassembled by the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 from the second end of the transport line 1 to the first end of the transport line 1, so as to provide the pad protection device 2 to the first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 for installation and use, so that the pad protection device 2 can be reused by the PCB 5.

[0031] The production line 4 is provided with a first disassembly and assembly station and a second disassembly and assembly station. The first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 is located above the first disassembly and assembly station, and the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 is located above the second disassembly and assembly station.

[0032] When the production line 4 drives the PCB5 to move to the first disassembly and assembly station, the first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 moves downward until it contacts the magnetic buckle 3 of the pad protection device 2. At this time, power is supplied to the first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6, and the first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 starts to adsorb the magnetic buckle 3 after being powered on, so that the magnetic buckle 3 changes from a state of not being adsorbed to a state of being adsorbed. When the magnetic buckle 3 is in the state of being adsorbed, the position of the magnetic buckle 3 changes, and the magnetic buckle 3 changes from a released state to a retracted state, so that the magnetic buckle 3 can be directly inserted into the PCB5. After the magnetic buckle 3 is inserted into the PCB5, the first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 is powered off, and the first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 no longer adsorbs the magnetic buckle 3 after being powered off, so that the magnetic buckle 3 changes from a state of being adsorbed to a state of not being adsorbed. When the magnetic buckle 3 is in a non-adsorbed state, the position of the magnetic buckle 3 is restored, and the magnetic buckle 3 changes from a retracted state to a released state, so that the magnetic buckle 3 is directly fixed on the PCB5 after being snapped into the PCB5, thereby fixing the pad protection device 2 on the PCB5.

[0033] When the production line 4 drives the PCB5 with the pad protection device 2 fixed to move to the second disassembly and assembly station, the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 moves downward until it contacts the magnetic buckle 3 of the pad protection device 2 fixed on the PCB5. At this time, power is supplied to the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6, and the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 begins to absorb the magnetic buckle 3, and the magnetic buckle 3 changes from the non-absorbed state to the absorbed state, and the magnetic buckle 3 changes from the released state to the retracted state, so that the magnetic buckle 3 is separated from the PCB5. When the magnetic buckle 3 is separated from the PCB5, the power is cut off to the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6, and the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 no longer absorbs the magnetic buckle 3, and the magnetic buckle 3 changes from the absorbed state to the non-absorbed state. Under the action of gravity, the pad protection device 2 falls directly on the second end of the transport line 1, and the transport line 1 transports the pad protection device 2 removed from the second disassembly and assembly station to the first end of the transport line 1 to provide it to the PCB5 on the first disassembly and assembly station for reuse.

[0034] A pad protection system for a PCB in the present embodiment includes a transport line 1, on which a pad protection device 2 is placed, and the pad protection device 2 includes a magnetic buckle 3; a production line 4 is provided on one side close to the transport line 1, on which a PCB 5 is placed, and the production line 4 drives the PCB 5 to move; disassembly and assembly mechanisms 6 are respectively provided on both ends of the production line 4 close to the transport line 1, and the disassembly and assembly mechanisms 6 are used to change the adsorption state of the magnetic buckle 3 so that the magnetic buckle 3 adsorbs or releases the PCB 5. The first end of the transport line 1 is close to the first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6, and the second end of the transport line 1 is close to the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6. The first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 is used to install the pad protection device 2 on the PCB5, and the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 is used to remove the pad protection device 2 from the PCB5. The transport line 1 drives the pad protection device 2 to be transported from the second end of the transport line 1 to the first end of the transport line 1, so that the pad protection device 2 removed from the PCB5 can be reused by the PCB5, which greatly reduces the production cost. When the disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 installs or removes the pad protection device 2 on the PCB5, the disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 is powered on and off to make the disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 absorb or release the magnetic buckle 3 to change the absorption state of the magnetic buckle 3, so that the magnetic buckle 3 can be inserted into the PCB5 or detached from the PCB5, so as to realize the automatic installation and removal of the PCB5 and the pad protection device 2, which greatly improves the production efficiency, and at the same time uses the pad protection device 2 to protect the PCB5 and improve the product quality.

[0042] When the magnetic buckle 3 is adsorbed, the slider 10 moves along the axial direction of the guide column 9 in a direction away from the fixed block 11. When the slider 10 moves, it drives the first connecting rod 13 to move, and the first connecting rod 13 drives the second connecting rod 14 to move until the first connecting rod 13 and the second connecting rod 14 are in the same vertical direction. At this time, the first connecting rod 13 and the second connecting rod 14 are fully stretched, and the slider 10 reaches the maximum movement distance. At this time, the slider 10 is balanced in force and is in a static state. The working state of the magnetic buckle 3 is the adsorption state. The position of the connecting rod assembly 8 changes, and the second connecting end of the first connecting rod 13 and the third connecting end of the second connecting rod 14 are moved from the outside of the buckle shell 12 to the inside of the buckle shell 12, so that the magnetic buckle 3 can pass through the mounting hole of the PCB 5.

[0043] When the magnetic buckle 3 is disconnected from adsorption, the slider 10 moves along the guide column 9 towards the fixed block 11 under the action of gravity, and the slider 10 drives the first connecting rod 13 and the second connecting rod 14 to move until the first connecting rod 13 and the second connecting rod 14 are folded to the minimum angle with each other, and the slider 10 stops moving. The working state of the magnetic buckle 3 is a non-adsorption state, and the position of the connecting rod assembly 8 changes. The second connecting end of the first connecting rod 13 and the third connecting end of the second connecting rod 14 are moved from the inside of the buckle shell 12 to the outside of the buckle shell 12, so that the magnetic buckle 3 is directly fixed on the PCB5 after passing through the mounting hole of the PCB5.

[0044] The magnetic buckle 3 is a columnar structure, and the buckle housing 12 of the magnetic buckle 3 is also provided with a positioning column, which is located on the side of the buckle housing 12 away from the fixing block 11. The protective tooling 15 is provided with a positioning hole, and the positioning column is inserted into the positioning hole, so that the magnetic buckle 3 is fixed on the protective tooling 15. After the magnetic buckle 3 is inserted into the PCB5, the magnetic buckle 3 drives the protective tooling 15 to be fixed on the PCB5, so that the protective tooling 15 protects the pads of the PCB5.

[0045] The magnetic buckle 3 of this embodiment includes a sliding assembly 7 and a connecting rod assembly 8. The sliding assembly 7 is hinged to the connecting rod assembly 8.

The sliding assembly 7 also includes a fixed block 11 and a buckle shell 12, the fixed block 11 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the buckle shell 12, and the guide column 9 passes through the fixed block 11.

After the pad protection device 2 is fixed on the PCB5, the clamping claw cylinder 20 drives the cylinder clamp 19 to move, so that the cylinder clamp 19 releases the pad protection device 2, and then the rising cylinder 22 moves downward and returns to the initial position.

[0063] The production line 4 drives the PCB5 with the pad protection device 2 installed to continue to move forward. When passing through the wave soldering device 27, the wave soldering device 27 performs wave soldering on the pads of the power module on the PCB5, and the pad protection device 2 protects the pad position of the power module of the PCB5. After the PCB5 passes through the wave soldering, the PCB5 continues to move to the second disassembly and assembly station, and the blocking cylinder 28 extends to block the PCB5 from continuing to move, so that the PCB5 stays at the second disassembly and assembly station. The push cylinder 24 of the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 is started, and the push cylinder 24 drives the cylinder mounting plate 25 to move downward until the electromagnet 26 of the cylinder mounting plate 25 contacts the magnetic buckle 3, and the electromagnet 26 is powered. After the electromagnet 26 is powered on, it starts to absorb the magnetic buckle 3, so that the active buckle position of the magnetic buckle 3 changes, and the magnetic buckle 3 is detached from the PCB5. When the magnetic buckle 3 is detached from the PCB 5, the power supply to the electromagnet 26 is stopped, and the electromagnet 26 no longer attracts the magnetic buckle 3. The pad protection device 2 falls on the transportation line 1 under the action of gravity, and the transportation line 1 drives the pad protection device 2 to move to the discharge port 18 to provide it to the first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 for installation and use, so as to realize the reuse of the pad protection device 2.

[0064] The production line 4 of this embodiment is connected to gantry brackets 23 on both sides, and the disassembly mechanism 6 is connected to the gantry bracket 23; the disassembly mechanism 6 includes a push cylinder 24, and the push cylinder 24 is mounted on the gantry bracket 23; the cylinder mounting plate 25 is connected below the push cylinder 24, and an electromagnet 26 is provided on the side of the cylinder mounting plate 25 away from the push cylinder 24. It also includes a wave soldering device 27, through which the production line 4 passes, and the disassembly mechanism 6 is provided on both sides of the wave soldering device 27, and the wave soldering device 27 is used to perform wave soldering on the pads of the power module on the PCB 5. A blocking cylinder 28 is provided above the production line 4, and the blocking cylinder 28 is used to block two adjacent PCBs 5 on the production line 4 to control the flow time interval of the PCB 5. After the PCB5 is blocked by the blocking cylinder 28, the first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 installs the pad protection device 2 on the PCB5, so that when the PCB5 passes through the wave soldering device 27 for wave soldering, the pad protection device 2 protects the pad position of the power module of the PCB5, thereby ensuring the product quality of the PCB5. After the PCB5 passes through the wave soldering, the blocking cylinder 28 blocks the PCB5 again, and the second disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 removes the pad protection device 2 from the PCB5. Under the action of gravity, the pad protection device 2 falls on the transportation line 1, and the transportation line 1 then drives the pad protection device 2 to move to the discharge port 18 to provide it to the first disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 for installation and use, so as to realize the reuse of the pad protection device 2. By energizing and de-energizing the electromagnet 26 of the disassembly and assembly mechanism 6 to change the adsorption state of the magnetic buckle 3, the rapid disassembly and installation of the pad protection device 2 on the PCB5 is realized, which not only reduces the labor cost, but also greatly improves the production efficiency.
