[0002] During the production and processing of PCBA circuit boards, flipping adjustment is a key link to ensure efficient and accurate processing. The multi-sided processing, component mounting and welding of circuit boards require flipping to put them in the appropriate position. The existing circuit boards can generally only be flipped in a fixed direction when flipped. For example, the Chinese invention patent with publication number CN114313925A discloses a printed circuit board conveying and flipping device and method, which only has the flipping ability in one direction when flipping the circuit board. However, there are usually four states when the circuit board is conveyed, such as Fig.11 As shown in the figure (the letters in the figure are only used to distinguish the states), the flipping in only one direction cannot meet all the flipping requirements of the circuit board, resulting in its poor applicability. Generally, the posture of the circuit board needs to be adjusted twice manually or by adding corresponding devices, which makes the processing efficiency low. Summary of the invention

[0046] In the process of PCBA circuit board production and processing, most of the flipping devices in the prior art can only provide flipping capabilities in a single direction, and can often only complete the flipping of the circuit board in a fixed direction. Such a design may be effective in some cases, but it often has obvious limitations in practical applications. During the transportation of the circuit board, due to factors such as the transportation path, posture, and position, the circuit board usually presents a variety of different posture states, such as Fig.11As shown, the existing flipping device can only handle flipping in a single direction and cannot make corresponding adjustments according to different states of the circuit board. During the production process, manual intervention or additional auxiliary devices are usually required for secondary attitude adjustment. This not only increases the complexity of production and labor costs but also may lead to errors caused by human factors, thereby reducing the stability, processing accuracy, and production efficiency of the production line. For this reason, a flipable PCBA circuit board fixing device is proposed to solve the above problems. To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0047] For the embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 - Fig.13 , a flipable PCBA circuit board fixing device, comprising:
[0048] A fixing mechanism 2 for placing the circuit board. The fixing mechanism 2 is composed of two symmetrically arranged fixing frames 21. A placing groove is provided on the opposite side of the fixing frames 21.
[0049] A flipping mechanism 3 for driving the fixing mechanism 2 to rotate a first angle around the rotation axis to flip the circuit board by 180° or rotate a second angle to tilt the circuit board, where the rotation axis is the connecting line in the middle of the two fixing frames 21.
[0050] A rotating mechanism 4, which includes an annular rotating frame 41. The annular rotating frame 41 is located on the periphery of the fixing frame 21, and the annular rotating frame 41 is connected with a second driving member 42 for driving it to rotate around its own axis. The plane where the annular rotating frame 41 is located coincides with the plane where the fixing frame 21 is located after the fixing mechanism 2 rotates the second angle.
[0051] As Figure 1 shown, the flipable PCBA circuit board fixing device is installed on the workbench 1. A conveying device 11 for inputting the circuit board and another conveying device 11 for outputting the circuit board are also provided on the workbench 1. The two conveying devices 11 are arranged on both sides of the flipable PCBA circuit board fixing device, and the planes for the circuit board to move are aligned. That is, when the two fixing frames 21 of the fixing mechanism 2 are in a horizontal state, the placing grooves on them are flush with the planes where the circuit boards conveyed by the conveying devices 11 on both sides are located, so as to facilitate the connection of the circuit board with the two conveying devices 11 during the conveying process. It should be noted that since the conveying device 11 is a prior art, only an exemplary illustration is made in the figure, and its specific structure and the way of conveying the circuit board are not specifically described here, and it will not cause trouble to this solution based on this field.
[0052] It should be noted that the size of the second angle is generally 10°-30°. Specifically, it is based on not affecting the connection between the conveying device 11 and the fixed frame 21 and not blocking the processing device for processing the circuit board arranged above the fixed frame 21. In this embodiment, exemplarily, the second angle is 20°.
[0053] In one embodiment of the present invention, the flip mechanism 3 includes a first rotating shaft 31 installed on the side away from the two fixing frames 21, and one end of the first rotating shaft 31 is connected to a first driving member 32 for driving it to rotate around its own axis;
[0054] In one embodiment of the present invention, a locking member 5 is provided between the first driving member 32 and the first rotating shaft 31. When the fixing mechanism 2 rotates to the second angle, the first rotating shaft 31 can rotate with the annular rotating frame 41 and connect or disconnect with the first driving member 32.
[0055] In one embodiment of the present invention, the locking member 5 includes two second rotating shafts 51, and the flip mechanism 3 also includes two brackets 52 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fixing mechanism 2. The second rotating shaft 51 is rotatably mounted on the brackets 52, and one end of the second rotating shaft 51 is fixedly connected to a first locking block 53 with a straight groove on one side, and one end of the first rotating shaft 31 is fixedly connected to a second locking block 54, and one side of the second locking block 54 is a straight protrusion and can be matched with the groove of the first locking block 53;
[0056] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first driving member 32 is an electric motor, a pneumatic motor or a hydraulic motor, the output end of the electric motor, the output end of the hydraulic motor or the output end of the pneumatic motor is connected to one of the second rotating shafts 51, and the housing of the electric motor, the hydraulic motor or the pneumatic motor is mounted on the bracket 52;
[0057] The second rotating shaft 51 is driven to rotate by the first driving member 32 . When the first locking block 53 is plugged into the second locking block 54 , the rotation of the second rotating shaft 51 will drive the first rotating shaft 31 to rotate, thereby driving the fixing mechanism 2 to rotate.
[0058] In one embodiment of the present invention, the rotating mechanism 4 further includes two brackets 43, which are fixedly mounted on opposite sides of the two brackets 52, and an inclined track 44 is provided on one side of the bracket 43. An annular slide 45 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the annular rotating frame 41, and the annular slide 45 is slidably connected to the track 44. The first rotating shaft 31 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the annular rotating frame 41.
[0059] The second driving member 42 includes an annular gear plate 421, which is fixedly mounted on the top of the annular rotating frame 41, one side of the annular gear plate 421 is meshedly connected with a gear 422, the middle of the gear 422 is fixedly connected with a third rotating shaft, the third rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on one of the brackets 52, and one end of the third rotating shaft is connected to a rotating member 423 for driving the third rotating shaft to rotate;
[0060] The rotating member 423 is an electric motor, a pneumatic motor or a hydraulic motor, and the output end of the electric motor, the output end of the hydraulic motor or the output end of the pneumatic motor is connected to the third rotating shaft.
[0061] The setting of the annular rotating frame 41 and its inclined posture can enable the circuit board to have the ability to selectively rotate or not rotate at the annular rotating frame 41, while allowing it to avoid the conveying devices 11 that need to be connected on both sides, and avoid the processing device (not shown in the figure) located above the fixing mechanism 2, so that when the circuit board is in a horizontal state, its upward side is not blocked by the annular rotating frame 41.
[0062] In one embodiment of the present invention, a limiting member 6 is provided between the fixed frame 21 and the annular rotating frame 41. When the annular rotating member 423 rotates, the limiting member 6 is used to limit the fixed frame 21 so that the plane where the fixed frame 21 is located is kept in a coincident state with the plane where the annular rotating frame 41 is located.
[0063] In one embodiment of the present invention, the limiting member 6 includes a limiting pin 61 installed on the fixed frame 21 and a limiting block 62 arranged on the annular rotating frame 41. At least two limiting pins 61 and limiting blocks 62 are provided, and they are respectively located at diagonal positions of the two fixed frames 21. A mounting groove 63 is provided on the annular rotating frame 41. The limiting block 62 is slidably installed in the mounting groove 63. A first spring 64 is provided in the mounting groove 63. The elastic force of the first spring 64 acts on the limiting block 62 so that the limiting block 62 has a tendency to move toward the inner side of the annular rotating frame 41. A limiting groove 65 adapted to the end of the limiting pin 61 is provided on the limiting block 62.
[0064] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in order to ensure the stability of the fixed frame 21 and the annular rotating frame 41 in the overlapping state when the annular rotating member 423 rotates, in this embodiment, Figure 2FIG. 2 shows a method of setting four limit pins 61 and limit blocks 62, which are respectively located at the ends of the fixing frame 21. For a circuit board with a lighter weight, the number of limit pins 61 and limit blocks 62 can be reduced to reduce the difficulty of the limit member 6 when it acts. This is because when the limit pin 61 is clamped in the limit groove 65, it needs to overcome part of the elastic force of the first spring 64. The more the number of limit pins 61, the greater the stability of the limit between the fixing frame 21 and the annular rotating frame 41, but it also increases the difficulty of the limit member 6 and requires a certain amount of power input. Therefore, in actual use, it can be appropriately selected according to the weight of the circuit board to be processed. It should be understood that if Figure 3 As shown, the limiting pin 61 is detachably fixed to one side of the fixing frame 21 by bolts, and can be installed and removed according to the actual required quantity and position.
[0065] In one embodiment of the present invention, a use scenario of the reversible PCBA circuit board fixing device is provided, specifically:
[0066] The circuit board to be processed is transported to the placement slot of the fixing frame 21, and the circuit board is flipped and adjusted according to the required processing posture. There are usually four current postures of the circuit board, such as Fig.11 As shown, one of them should be the desired posture. When the posture of the circuit board is the same as the desired posture ( Fig.11 Figure a shows the current posture and the required posture, with the solid and dotted lines of A and B representing the front and back sides, so there is no need to flip the part and the processing can be done directly;
[0067] When the posture of the circuit board is different from the required posture, there are three cases: Fig.11 Figures b, c and d in the figure;
[0068] When the circuit board is in the posture shown in Figure b, the flip mechanism 3 rotates the second angle to tilt the circuit board and connect it to the rotating mechanism 4. Then the rotating mechanism 4 rotates to rotate the circuit board 180°, that is, the circuit board rotates in the plane where the annular rotating frame 41 is located. Finally, the flip mechanism 3 rotates the second angle to make the circuit board horizontal to complete the flipping. Fig.12 The flowchart shown;
[0069] When the posture is shown in Figure c, the flip mechanism 3 can be directly rotated to the first angle (180°);
[0070] When the posture is shown in Figure d, there are two ways to process it. Specifically, one is: first rotate the circuit board through the flip mechanism 3 to make it rotate the second angle, then rotate the circuit board 180° through the rotating mechanism 4, and finally continue to rotate the flip mechanism 3 until the circuit board is horizontal; the other is: first rotate the circuit board by the first angle and then continue to rotate the second angle to tilt the circuit board, then rotate the circuit board 180° through the rotating mechanism 4, and finally rotate the flip mechanism 3 back to the second angle; the above two methods are shown in FIG. Fig.13 The flowchart shown;
[0071] It should be noted that the posture recognition of the circuit board can be performed by a set recognition device before the conveying device is transported to the fixing frame 21. The recognition device is not drawn in the figure and it is a prior art, so it will not be described in detail here.
[0072] In one embodiment of the present invention, the reversible PCBA circuit board fixing device further includes a material moving mechanism 7, which is used to move the circuit board so that the circuit board is moved out of the fixing mechanism 2;
[0073] In one embodiment of the present invention, a specific example of a material moving mechanism 7 is provided. The material moving mechanism 7 is a general manipulator (not shown in the figure), which is arranged on one side of the rotating mechanism 4. When the circuit board is processed, the manipulator moves the circuit board to move it out of the fixing frame 21 of the fixing mechanism 2. Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the removed circuit board will enter the next conveying device 11 for conveying;
[0074] In one embodiment of the present invention, another specific example of a material moving mechanism 7 is provided, the material moving mechanism 7 comprises a material moving rod 71, a material stopping rod 72 and a third driving member 75, the third driving member 75 is used to drive the material moving rod 71 and the material stopping rod 72 to move closer to or away from each other, a material moving block 73 is installed on the top of the material moving rod 71, and a material stopping block 74 is rotatably connected to the material stopping rod 72;
[0075] The third driving member 75 includes a base 7501 and a bidirectional lead screw 7502 rotatably mounted at both ends of the base 7501. The material moving rod 71 and the material blocking rod 72 are both slidably connected to the base 7501. The two ends of the bidirectional lead screw 7502 are respectively sleeved with a first sleeve 7503 and a second sleeve 7504. The surface of the first sleeve 7503 is slidably connected to one end of the material moving rod 71. A trapezoidal plate 7505 is fixedly mounted on the first sleeve 7503. The material moving rod 71 is provided with a slot 7506 for the trapezoidal plate 7505 to move. A push rod 7507 is slidably connected in the material moving rod 71. The lower end of the push rod 7507 is located in the slot 7506. The upper end of the push rod 7507 is fixedly connected to the material moving block 73. A first tension spring 7508 is installed between the material moving block 73 and the material moving rod 71. One end of the bidirectional lead screw 7502 is connected to a motor for driving it to rotate.
[0076] The surface of the second sleeve 7504 is slidably connected to one end of the material blocking rod 72, and a second spring 7509 is sleeved on the end of the second sleeve 7504 away from the first sleeve 7503. The bottom of the blocking block 74 is connected to a ring body 7510, and a rotating column 7511 is fixedly connected to the top of the blocking rod 72. The ring body 7510 is rotatably connected to the rotating column 7511, and a cylindrical cavity 7512 is provided in the ring body 7510. A pin rod 7513 is slidably connected in the cylindrical cavity 7512, and a third spring 7514 is installed in the cylindrical cavity 7512. The elastic force of the third spring 7514 acts on the pin rod 7513 to make it have a tendency to move toward the inside of the ring body 7510. The rotating column 7511 has a first side surface 7515 with a gradually smaller diameter, and the rotating column 7511 is provided with two pin grooves 7516 that match the ends of the pin rod 7513;
[0077] like Figure 8 and Fig.10 As shown, when the pin rod 7513 is located in the two pin grooves 7516, the stop block 74 will be located inside and outside the moving path of the circuit board respectively, and the ring body 7510 is located below the plane where the circuit board is in a horizontal state. When the stop block 74 is subjected to a large thrust, the pin rod 7513 will shrink and disengage from the pin groove 7516 by compressing the third spring 7514, and then the stop block 74 will rotate under the elastic force of the stop block 74 and the third spring 7514, and finally the pin rod 7513 will enter the other pin groove 7516. At this time, the stop block 74 will rotate to the outside of the moving path of the circuit board, so as not to hinder the movement of the circuit board. It should be noted that the resetting (restoring to the vertical state) of the stop block 74 can be achieved by setting a push block. When the material moving rod 71 and the material stopping rod 72 move away from each other to the initial position, the push block pushes the stop block 74 to rotate. The push block can be set at the edge of the conveying device 11 on one side thereof, or the push block can be installed and configured on the workbench 1 and placed on the moving path of the stop block 74. The setting method is conventional means, and the push block is not drawn in the figure.
[0078] In one embodiment of the present invention, an extrusion member 8 is provided at the bottom of the material moving rod 71, and the extrusion member 8 includes an extrusion rod 81, and a slip ring 82 is fixedly connected to the surface of the extrusion rod 81. A slide groove 83 is provided at the bottom of the material moving rod 71, and the slip ring 82 is slidably connected to the slide groove 83. One end of the extrusion rod 81 abuts against the inner wall of the base 7501, and the other end of the extrusion rod 81 abuts against the inclined groove 84 provided on the trapezoidal plate 7505. A fourth spring 85 is installed in the slide groove 83, and the elastic force of the fourth spring 85 acts on the slip ring 82, so that the slip ring 82 has a tendency to move toward the inclined groove 84.
[0079] When the first spring 7509 is pressed against the top of the support frame 7501, the first spring 7503 is pressed against the bottom of the support frame 7501, and the spring 7504 is pressed against the bottom of the support frame 7501, so that the support frame 71 is in a state of rotation and the rotation of the support frame 71 is stable.
[0080] When the material moving rod 71 and the material stopping rod 72 are both in contact with both sides of the circuit board, and they squeeze the two sides of the circuit board to a certain extent, the two-way screw screw 7502 stops rotating, and the circuit board is further fixed in the current position through a certain squeezing effect, to prevent the circuit board from moving in the fixing groove of the fixing frame 21 during processing of the circuit board, and after the processing is completed, the two-way screw screw 7502 is driven to rotate again to make the material moving rod 71 and the material stopping rod 72 closer to each other. At this time, the material stopping block 74 will rotate under the push of the circuit board, compressing the third spring 7514 during rotation, so that The pin rod 7513 disengages from the current pin slot 7516 and moves toward another pin slot 7516, eventually causing the stop block 74 to rotate to the bottom of the circuit board, thereby not hindering the movement of the circuit board. Then, as the material moving rod 71 continues to move, the material moving block 73 pushes the processed circuit board to move to the conveying device 11 on its side; after the currently processed circuit board is removed, the bidirectional lead screw 7502 rotates in the opposite direction, causing the material moving rod 71 and the material moving block 73 thereon and the material stop rod 72 and the material stop block 74 thereon to return to their initial positions to facilitate the next operation.
