Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of printed circuit boards, and in particular to a printing system and a post-printing detection device and method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Screen printing is a common process for printed circuit boards (PCBs) that is used to paste conductive ink or solder paste onto the surface of a circuit board to form a circuit pattern. This method is usually used for component pin locations, connector locations, etc. on printed circuit boards. The existing screen printing equipment for printed circuit boards needs to be equipped with a specific mechanical fixture to fix the position of the printed circuit board to be printed on the bottom of the screen printing equipment. The mechanical fixture usually adopts mechanical structures such as screws and rockers to clamp and release the circuit board by adjusting the position of the screws or rockers. However, as the requirements for the volume and weight of electronic products continue to increase, the thickness of the printed circuit board is usually also reduced. The clamping part of this type of mechanical clamp is usually of fixed thickness, which cannot meet the clamping and positioning requirements of PCB boards of different thicknesses. For example, when the clamping part of the mechanical clamp is thicker than the PCB board, the slurry for screen printing will be smeared onto the upper surface of the clamp, or the screen board will be resisted by the protrusion of the clamp, causing the screen to deform, thereby affecting the printing quality. When the clamping part of the mechanical clamp is thinner than the PCB board, the local stress of the PCB board being clamped will be large, causing the PCB board to deform as a whole, which will also affect the printing quality. The existing clamp design can no longer meet the clamping requirements of thinning printed circuit boards. For this reason, a printing system and a post-printing detection device and method thereof are proposed. Summary of the invention

Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making any creative work shall fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0017] Embodiment 1: The present invention provides a printing system, see Figure 1 - Fig.14 , comprising a frame 1 and a printing module 2, the printing module 2 prints slurry on the surface of a printed circuit board 6 by screen printing technology, the frame 1 is also provided with a circulating feed box 4, the circulating feed box 4 is provided with a supporting plate 3, the supporting plate 3 comprises a lower supporting plate 301 and an upper supporting plate 302, the supporting plate 3 is provided with a plurality of negative pressure holes 33 arranged in an equidistant array and a plurality of centering locking mechanisms 5 arranged in an equidistant array, the centering locking mechanism 5 is used to align the center of the printed circuit board 6 to be printed with the printing center of the printing module 2; The support plate 3 is provided with a negative pressure bin 38 and a positive pressure bin 39 through a partition. A positive pressure air pipe 31 and a negative pressure air pipe 32 are provided on one side of the support plate 3. The positive pressure air pipe 31 is connected to the positive pressure bin 39, and the negative pressure air pipe 32 is connected to the negative pressure bin 38. The negative pressure bin 38 provides negative pressure for the negative pressure hole 33, and the positive pressure bin 39 provides positive pressure for the centering locking mechanism 5. The circulating feed box 4 is used to transport the lower pallet 301 to reciprocate in the horizontal direction. The circulating feed box 4 is also used to transport the upper pallet 302 to perform superimposed reciprocating motions in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction. The circulating feed box 4 continuously and alternately provides the printed circuit board 6 to the bottom of the printing module 2 through the cooperation of the lower pallet 301 and the upper pallet 302. The printed circuit board 6 needs to be cleaned in advance and the surface must be kept flat.
[0018] For details, please refer to Figure 2 - Fig.11 , first sliders 34 are fixed on both sides of the upper support plate 302, and an upper slide rail 44 matching with the first slider 34 is provided on the top of the circulating feed box 4; Slide seats 36 are fixed on both sides of the lower support plate 301, and support seats 35 are provided at the bottom of the slide seats 36. A height guide rail 352 is fixed on the top of the support seat 35, and a slide groove matching the height guide rail 352 is provided on the slide seat 36. A second slider 351 is fixed on the bottom of the support seat 35, and a lower slide rail 45 matching the second slider 351 is provided at the bottom of the circulating feed box 4. A guide wheel 37 is also rotatably connected between the lower support plate 301 and the slide seat 36, and a lower slide rail 45 matching the guide wheel 37 is fixed at the bottom of the circulating feed box 4, and a U-shaped notch is provided on the top of the lower slide rail 45; The inner wall of the circulating feed box 4 is symmetrically connected to a transmission belt 43, which is driven by a reciprocating motor 46 to reciprocate. The upper support plate 302 is fixed to the top belt side of the transmission belt 43, and the support seat 35 on the lower support plate 301 is fixed to the bottom belt side of the first slider 34.
[0019] Since the circulating feeding box 4 drives the transmission belt 43 to reciprocate through the reciprocating motor 46, the upper and lower belts of the transmission belt 43 have different transmission directions, so that the lower support plate 301 and the upper support plate 302 can reciprocate in opposite directions in the horizontal direction, wherein the upper support plate 302 utilizes the cooperation of the first slider 34 and the upper slide rail 44 to achieve running stability; When the lower pallet 301 and the upper pallet 302 meet in the middle of the transmission belt 43, the lower pallet 301 uses the guiding effect of the guide wheel 37 and the guide plate 42 to move the lower pallet 301 downward along the height guide rail 352, maintaining the upper and lower pallet 301 Staggered state, the alternating operation of the lower pallet 301 and the upper pallet 302 can effectively improve the loading and unloading efficiency of the circulating feed box 4.
[0020] See also Figure 4 - Fig.10 Specifically, the centering locking mechanism 5 includes a conduit 54 inserted into the negative pressure chamber 38 and the positive pressure chamber 39, the top inner wall of the conduit 54 is rotatably connected to a rotating column 52, and the top of the rotating column 52 is limitedly slidably connected to a lifting column 51 through a spline groove structure; An eccentric plate 511 is fixed to the top of the lifting column 51, an air guide tube 512 is fixed to the bottom of the lifting column 51, a steering bin 513 is arranged inside the lifting column 51, the top of the air guide tube 512 extends into the steering bin 513, the bottom of the air guide tube 512 extends through the rotating column 52 and is rotatably connected to a push diaphragm 53, and a tension spring 56 is arranged between the push diaphragm 53 and the rotating column 52; A plurality of release ports 514 are provided at the bottom of the steering bin 513, a sealing ridge 522 matching the release ports 514 is provided in the rotating column 52, a plurality of push-swirl air passages 521 arranged at equal angles are provided at the bottom of the rotating column 52, the push-swirl air passages 521 are arranged in a vortex shape, and a plurality of connecting holes 541 arranged at equal angles are provided in the conduit 54 in the negative pressure bin 38, the negative pressure bin 38 is connected to the output end of the push-swirl air passage 521 through the connecting holes 541, and the lower end of the conduit 54 is connected to the positive pressure bin 39.
[0021] In the present application, a manipulator performs loading and unloading operations at one end of the circulating feed box 4 away from the printing module 2. When the manipulator places the printed circuit board 6 on the lower support plate 301 or the upper support plate 302, the approximate printing orientation and position of the printed circuit board 6 are maintained. When the support plate 3 conveys the printed circuit board 6 to the bottom of the printing module 2, a first-level negative pressure is first provided in the negative pressure chamber 38, and the negative pressure is transmitted to the bottom of the printed circuit board 6 through the negative pressure hole 33, so that the printed circuit board 6 is initially fixed and the centering locking mechanism 5 at the bottom of the printed circuit board 6 is pressed. At this time, positive pressure is provided in the positive pressure chamber 39, and the positive pressure enters the steering chamber 513 through the push diaphragm 53 and the air guide tube 512. Since the lifting column 51 at the bottom of the printed circuit board 6 cannot move upward due to the pressure of the printed circuit board 6, the printed circuit board 6 will not be lifted. The lifting column 51 on the side of the printed circuit board 6 is affected by the thrust of the positive pressure on the push diaphragm 53 and the steering bin 513, and the lifting column 51 overcomes the elastic force of the tensioning spring 56 and moves upward. At this time, the sealing convex edge 522 no longer blocks the release port 514, and the positive pressure is transmitted to the push-swirl airway 521 through the release port 514. Since the push-swirl airway 521 is arranged in a vortex shape, it is driven by the positive pressure to push the rotating column 52 to rotate. Since the lifting column 51 is slidably connected to the rotating column 52 through the spline structure, the rotation of the rotating column 52 also drives the lifting column 51 The eccentric plates 511 on the sides of the printed circuit board 6 rotate and contact the sides of the printed circuit board 6. Since the positive pressure values of the centering locking mechanism 5 on the opposite sides of the printed circuit board 6 in the positive pressure chamber 39 are equal, that is, the contact forces of the eccentric plates 511 on the opposite sides of the printed circuit board 6 on the sides of the printed circuit board 6 are equal, the rotation angles of the eccentric plates 511 on both sides of the printed circuit board 6 are kept equal, and the printed circuit board 6 can be finely adjusted forward, backward, left, and right to the center position, and the correct printing position of the printed circuit board 6 is maintained; At this time, a secondary negative pressure is provided in the negative pressure chamber 38 , so that the printed circuit board 6 is completely adsorbed on the upper surface of the supporting plate 3 , thereby achieving complete fixation of the position of the printed circuit board 6 .
[0022] See also Figure 5 - Figure 8 In order to enhance the lifting force of the positive pressure in the positive pressure chamber 39 on the lifting column 51, the push diaphragm 53 is in a bowl-shaped structure, the bowl mouth of the push diaphragm 53 is arranged downward and the bowl mouth of the push diaphragm 53 contacts and seals with the inner wall of the conduit 54; Furthermore, the tensioning spring 56 has an elastic force that drives the lifting column 51 to move downward close to the rotating column 52. When the tensioning spring 56 is in a free state, the top end of the sealing protrusion 522 abuts against the output end of the release port 514, and at this time, the upper end surface of the eccentric shift plate 511 is flush with the upper end surface of the supporting plate 3.
[0023] When the printing position of the printed circuit board 6 is completely fixed, the positive pressure in the positive pressure chamber 39 is removed and the secondary negative pressure in the negative pressure chamber 38 is maintained. At this time, the lifting column 51 in the centering locking mechanism 5 is affected by the elastic force of the tensioning spring 56 and is completely retracted into the guide tube 54, so as to prevent the slurry from adhering to the upper surface of the protruding eccentric plate 511 during the printing process, thereby reducing the loss of slurry and meeting the clamping and centering requirements of printed circuit boards 6 of different thicknesses.
[0024] See also Fig.12 - Fig.14The printing module 2 includes a Z-axis linear module 21 and an assembly frame 23. A Y-axis linear module 22 is fixed on one side of the assembly frame 23. A scraper 221 and a scraper 222 are provided at the output end of the Y-axis linear module 22. A screen plate 7 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the assembly frame 23. It should be noted that the screen plate 7 is made of metal wire or polymer fiber and is processed into a specific pattern and size according to the requirements of circuit board printing design. The structural design of the screen plate 7 being detachably connected to the assembly frame 23 can meet the printing requirements of different circuit boards, and the adaptability is effectively improved. Two groups of symmetrically arranged C-type clamps 24 are provided at the output end of the Z-axis linear module 21. A clamping cylinder 241 is provided on the top of the C-type clamp 24. The clamping cylinder 241 is used to clamp and fix the side of the assembly frame 23 in the C-type clamp 24.
[0025] The Z-axis linear module 21 is also provided with a positive pressure connector 201 that cooperates with the positive pressure air pipe 31, and a negative pressure connector 202 that cooperates with the negative pressure air pipe 32. The input end of the positive pressure connector 201 is connected to the positive pressure device, and the input end of the negative pressure connector 202 is connected to the negative pressure device. Both the positive pressure connector 201 and the negative pressure connector 202 are quick-release connectors. Furthermore, in order to meet the requirement that the negative pressure chamber 38 supplies negative pressure first and the positive pressure chamber 39 supplies positive pressure later, the length of the negative pressure connector 202 is greater than the length of the positive pressure connector 201.
[0026] Since the present invention adopts the method of connecting the negative pressure joint 202 with the negative pressure air pipe 32 to provide negative pressure, compared with the traditional negative pressure clamp, there is no need to continuously supply pressure during the feeding process of the support plate 3, thus avoiding complex pipeline design and reducing the operating energy consumption and cost of the negative pressure equipment.
[0027] During the actual printing process, the Z-axis linear module 21 drives the C-shaped clamp 24 to move up and down in height, thereby adjusting the distance between the screen plate 7 and the upper surface of the circuit board to be printed, and the Y-axis linear module 22 drives the scraper 221 and the scraper 222 to move synchronously, wherein the scraper 222 spreads the slurry evenly on the upper surface of the screen plate 7, and the scraper 221 squeezes the slurry through the screen plate 7 and prints it on the upper surface of the circuit board.
[0028] More specifically, the slurry is a conductive slurry, an insulating slurry or a hardener. It should be noted that since the slurry contains volatile organic compounds, the negative pressure chamber 38 provides negative pressure to the negative pressure hole 33, which can absorb harmful gases at the work station, reduce the concentration of harmful gases in the working environment, and protect the health of the operator.
[0029] The present invention cooperates with the lifting column 51 with the eccentric dial plate 511, the rotating column 52 with the push-rotation airway 521, and the supporting plate 3 with the negative pressure hole 33. When conveying the printed circuit board 6, the centering position of the printed circuit board 6 can be automatically fine-tuned and locked. The lifting column 51 is designed to extend when applying positive pressure and retract when withdrawing positive pressure, so as to ensure the effective contact area between the eccentric dial plate 511 and the printed circuit board 6 to be clamped. In particular, for the printed circuit board 6 with a thinner thickness, it is not easy to produce clamping deformation. The eccentric dial plate 511 close to the side of the printed circuit board 6 is used to perform the centering operation, which effectively improves the accuracy of the printing position of the printed circuit board 6 during the screen printing process. After completing the centering operation, the lifting column 51 retracts to avoid the influence of the height of the lifting column 51 on the printing action of the printing module 2, thereby improving the printing quality. The reciprocating and alternating transportation of the lower supporting plate 301 and the upper supporting plate 302 effectively improves the loading and unloading efficiency of the printed circuit board 6, further improves the printing efficiency, has market prospects, and is suitable for promotion and application.
