One end of the inclined block 32 close to the cover plate 13 is provided with an inclined surface, and the cover plate 13 is provided with a clamping groove 46 matched with the inclined block 32.

[0115] The second spring 31 is fixed between the connecting plate 16 and the fixed plate 14.

[0116] When the circuit board is electroplated, the U-shaped frame 11 is moved to the side close to the electroplating box 29. The fixed shell 17 on the U-shaped frame 11 first contacts the cover plate 13. During the continuous movement of the U-shaped frame 11, the fixed shell 17 continuously presses the cover plate 13, so that the cover plate 13 and the electroplating box 29 are relatively displaced, and the cover plate 13 is moved to one side from the electroplating box 29. This facilitates the circuit board to enter the electroplating box 29 for electroplating treatment. During the movement of the cover plate 13 to open the electroplating box 29, the first spring 15 is deformed under pressure. When the cover plate 13 completely opens the electroplating box 29, the connecting plate 16 is placed into the clamping groove 46 to prevent the cover plate 13 from rebounding. After the fixed shell 17 is separated from the cover plate 13, the connecting plate 16 is pulled out upward, so that the limit of the inclined block 32 to the cover plate 13 is released. Under the elastic force of the first spring 15, the cover plate 13 moves reversely to reset and cover the electroplating box 29.

[0117] The specific use method of the present application is as follows:

[0118] When it is necessary to punch the circuit board, the circuit board is placed between the two clamping plates 20. The second electric push rod 19 is started to make the second electric push rod 19 shorter, so that the two clamping plates 20 clamp the circuit board.

[0119] Then the first motor 6 is started, the first motor 6 drives the first screw 7 to rotate, and the first screw 7 drives the U-shaped frame 11 to move towards the protective cover 4. When the circuit board is located at the left side position of the first partition plate 5, the first motor 6 is turned off, and the second motor 12 is started. The second motor 12 drives the second screw 18 to rotate, so that the sliding plate 30 moves downward. The sliding plate 30 drives the circuit board to move downward, so that the circuit board is attached to the left side of the first partition plate 5. During subsequent punching work, the first partition plate 5 can support the circuit board.

[0120] After the above work is completed, the punching work is started. The first electric push rod 3 is started, and the first electric push rod 3 pushes the protective cover 4 to move towards the first partition plate 5. During the movement of the protective cover 4 towards the first partition plate 5, the first gear 23 is driven to rotate by the meshing of the first gear 23 and the rack 24. The first gear 23 rotates to drive the connecting shaft 25 to rotate through the meshing of the first bevel gear 22 and the second bevel gear 38. The rotation of the connecting shaft 25 drives the drilling assembly to rotate together. In this way, the air hole can clean the circumference of the drill bit 47.

[0121] When the drill bit 47 contacts the circuit board, the micro motor is started. The micro motor drives the drill bit 47 to rotate to perform the drilling operation on the circuit board.

[0122] The drillings produced by the drill bit 47 will all fall into the collecting hopper 10 through the openings below the groove body 1, and are collected uniformly, so that the drillings can be prevented from accumulating in the groove body 1 and then cleaned manually. After the drilling is completed, the drill bit 47 is retracted away from the circuit board after the drilling is completed by the first electric push rod 3. During the process that the drill bit 47 is retracted away from the circuit board, the connecting shaft 25 drives the drill bit 47 to rotate reversely, and the air hole still blows air to clean the drillings in the guide groove of the drill bit 47 after the drilling is completed.

[0123] When it is necessary to polish the burrs on the surface of the circuit board after the drilling, the second motor 12 is started to drive the sliding plate 30 to move upward and lift the circuit board after the drilling away from the first partition plate 5. Then, the first motor 6 is started to drive the U-shaped frame 11 to move above the two polishing rollers 21. The third motor 33 is started to drive the two polishing rollers 21 to rotate, and at the same time, the second motor 12 is started to drive the circuit board to move downward, so that the surface of the circuit board is polished by the polishing rollers 21 during the process that the circuit board moves downward, so as to remove the burrs on the surface of the circuit board.

[0124] When it is necessary to clean the surface of the circuit board after the polishing is completed, the first motor 6 is started to drive the U-shaped frame 11 to move above the rectangular frame 26. Then, the second motor 12 is started to drive the circuit board to move downward, so that the circuit board is located at the middle position of the rectangular frame 26. During the process that the circuit board moves downward, the water pump 36 is started to pump the liquid in the liquid storage tank 34 out and spray the liquid out through the nozzles 40 arranged on the rectangular frame 26. The front and rear sides of the circuit board are cleaned during the process that the circuit board moves downward, and the water cleaning can ensure that the surface of the circuit board is clean and free of impurities, so as to provide a good environment for electroplating.

[0125] After the cleaning of the circuit board is completed, the second motor 12 is started to drive the circuit board to move upward, and during the process that the circuit board moves upward, the hair dryer 44 is started. Since the hair dryer 44 is arranged on the left and right sides of the U-shaped frame 11, the hair dryer 44 can dry the water remaining on the two sides of the circuit board after the cleaning. The drying treatment can ensure that there is no water remaining on the surface of the circuit board, so as to provide a dry surface for electroplating. The moisture in the circuit board can be quickly converted into water vapor during the high-temperature electroplating process, which can form bubbles and affect the firmness of the welding points and the reliability of the electrical connection. The drying treatment can remove these moisture in advance, which can significantly reduce the risk of welding bubbles.

[0126] The circuit board is then electroplated. The first motor 6 is started, causing the U-shaped frame 11 to move the circuit board closer to the electroplating tank 29. During the movement of the U-shaped frame 11, the fixing shell 17 on the side of the U-shaped frame 11 closest to the electroplating tank 29 first contacts the cover plate 13. As the U-shaped frame 11 continues to move, the fixing shell 17 continuously presses against the cover plate 13, causing a relative displacement between the cover plate 13 and the electroplating tank 29, thus moving the cover plate 13 from the electroplating tank 29 to one side. This opens the opening of the electroplating tank 29.

[0127] When the circuit board is moved as shown in the attached Figure 15 After reaching the indicated position, start the second motor 12 to move the circuit board downwards and immerse it in the electroplating tank 29 for electroplating. After the electroplating is completed, start the second motor 12 again to move the circuit board upwards for resetting. During the resetting process, start the blower 44 to dry the surface of the circuit board. The dried circuit board surface is cleaner and flatter, which is beneficial for subsequent assembly and soldering.

[0128] As the fixed housing 17 pushes the cover plate 13 to move, the first spring 15 is compressed. When the circuit board moves to the attached... Figure 15 After the position is determined, the inclined block 32 enters the slot 46, limiting the position of the cover plate 13. This ensures that the circuit board does not come into contact with the cover plate 13 during the up-and-down movement of the circuit board above the electroplating tank 29, thus protecting the circuit board.

[0129] When the fixed shell 17 is not in contact with the cover plate 13, the connecting plate 16 is pulled upward, causing the inclined block 32 to release its restriction on the cover plate 13. The cover plate 13 will move through the elastic reset of the first spring 15, so that the cover plate 13 automatically closes the top of the electroplating tank 29, thereby preventing dust and impurities from falling into the tank and affecting the plating quality.

[0130] When adding electroplating solution to the electroplating tank 29, the slot 46 on the cover plate 13 can be engaged with the inclined block 32 by manual operation or by pushing the fixed shell 17, thereby limiting the cover plate 13 to facilitate the addition of solution. After the solution is added, the inclined block 32 can be disengaged from the slot 46 by moving the connecting plate 16, thereby sealing the electroplating tank 29.

[0131] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
