Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of flexible circuit board cutting, and in particular to a flexible circuit board cutting system. Background Art
[0002] A printed circuit board (PCB) is one of the core components of electronic devices. It is mainly used to connect electronic components (such as resistors, capacitors, chips, etc.) into a complete circuit system through prefabricated conductive circuits and pads. Its core structure is the substrate, conductive layer, pads, silk screen layer and solder mask layer. The circuit board miniaturizes and visualizes the circuit, and plays an important role in the mass production of fixed circuits and the optimization of electrical appliance layout. Circuit boards are divided into soft boards, hard boards and soft-hard combination boards according to their characteristics. Among them, soft boards usually refer to flexible circuit boards.
[0003] Flexible printed circuits (FPCs) are printed circuits made from a flexible insulating substrate. They feature three-dimensional wiring capabilities and dynamic bending properties, making them a key technology for the miniaturization and wearability of modern electronic products. Flexible circuits offer excellent electrical performance, meeting the demands of smaller and higher-density designs, while also helping to reduce assembly steps and enhance reliability. FPCs are available in single-sided, double-sided, and multi-layer versions. The substrate used is primarily polyimide copper-clad laminate, a material with high heat resistance and excellent dimensional stability. The final product is formed by laminating it with a cover film that provides both mechanical protection and excellent electrical insulation.
[0004] During the production and processing of flexible circuit boards, it is necessary to cut the entire flexible circuit board substrate material through a corresponding cutting processing system to separate the flexible circuit board and scrap waste. However, most of the existing flexible circuit board cutting systems have a single function. Before cutting, it is generally necessary to manually calibrate the position of the substrate material. After cutting, it is also necessary to manually sort the cut flexible circuit boards one by one and pick them out from the scrap waste, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and inefficient. In addition, the traditional single adsorption and fixing method cannot ensure the stability of the substrate material during processing, which easily affects the cutting processing accuracy. The additional limiting structure will cause the structure to be complicated and increase the equipment cost. In addition, the existing flexible circuit board cutting system cannot fully cool the substrate material in time after cutting, which results in a long high-temperature exposure time of the material, further reducing the cutting quality. Therefore, the present invention proposes a flexible circuit board cutting system to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Summary of the Invention

The end of the coolant inlet and outlet pipes 19 away from the cooling adsorption plate 3 passes through the outside of the cutting table 1 and is connected to the external coolant supply and recovery equipment through a quick connector. The coolant is injected into the cooling liquid cavity 5 and discharged through the external coolant supply and recovery equipment, so that the coolant flows in the cooling liquid cavity 5.

[0024] The propulsion mechanism includes a driving frame 24, a servo motor 25 and a screw rod 26, wherein the driving frame 24 is provided with four groups and is respectively fixed to the inner walls of the front, back, left and right sides of the square limit frame 6, the screw rod 26 is rotatably connected to the inside of the driving frame 24 through a bearing and is driven to rotate by the servo motor 25, and a threaded plate 27 located inside the driving frame 24 is threadedly sleeved on the screw rod 26, and a push rod 28 is symmetrically fixed on a side wall of the threaded plate 27 away from the servo motor 25, and one end of the push rod 28 away from the threaded plate 27 slides through the outside of the driving frame 24 and is fixedly connected to the L-shaped correction plate 7.

[0025] A first limiting rod 29 is symmetrically fixed to the top of the limiting pressure plate 9, and the top of the first limiting rod 29 slides through the top of the L-shaped correction plate 7, which limits the limiting pressure plate 9 and makes it more stable during the lifting process. Support blocks are fixed to the outer walls of the left and right sides of the adsorption box 12, and a second limiting rod 30 is fixed on the support block, which slides through the top of the support frame 10, which limits the adsorption box 12 and makes it more stable during the lifting process.

The first slide 32 is fixed between the output end of the first linear module 31 and the support frame 10. It can drive the support frame 10 to move horizontally. By providing two sets of support frames 10, the efficiency of sorting flexible circuit boards is improved. The lateral displacement of the two sets of support frames 10 is sufficient to cover the flexible circuit boards. The X-axis movement mechanism includes a second linear module 33 and a second slide 34, wherein the second linear module 33 is fixed to the top of the cutting cover 2 by bolts and is arranged in a transverse direction.

Through the cooperation of the sleeve 37 and the slide rod 38, the mounting plate 17 is limited, making it more stable during the lifting process.
[0028] The laser cutting assembly consists of a UV laser cutting head 39 and an ultrafast laser cutting head 40, which are respectively mounted on the left and right sides of the bottom end of the mounting plate 17. It integrates a dual light source of UV laser (355nm) and ultrafast laser (femtosecond level). The UV laser performs rough cutting (power 15-30W), followed by edge refinement with the ultrafast laser (pulse width <500fs). The composite wavelength lasers work synergistically to improve precision and reduce the heat-affected zone. An annular nitrogen pipe 41 located at the periphery of the laser cutting assembly is fixed to the bottom end of the mounting plate 17, and four groups of symmetrically distributed nitrogen nozzles 42 are fixed to the bottom end of the annular nitrogen pipe 41. The nitrogen nozzles 42 are tilted and facing the cutting position. An air inlet pipe 43 is symmetrically fixed to the top of the annular nitrogen pipe 41. The top of the air inlet pipe 43 passes through the mounting plate 17 and is fixed with a second air pump 44. The input end of the second air pump 44 is connected to the external nitrogen supply equipment through a pipeline. Nitrogen is ejected through the nitrogen nozzle 42 and focused on the laser spot action area to form a nitrogen protective layer to prevent oxygen from reacting with the substrate material, reduce the degree of oxidation and thermal damage, and thus improve the cutting speed and quality.

Three groups of evenly distributed first dust extraction branches 49 are fixed on the side of the first T-shaped main pipe 47 away from the dust removal pump 46. The end of the first dust extraction branch pipe 49 away from the first T-shaped main pipe 47 passes through the interior of the cutting hood 2 and is fixed with a dust suction hood 50.

Exhaust pipes 53 are fixed to the lower part of the outer walls on both sides of the dust removal and purification box 45, and an exhaust fan is fixed inside the exhaust pipe 53 to assist in discharging the air inside the dust removal and purification box 45.
[0031] When the flexible circuit board cutting system is actually used, the flexible circuit board substrate material to be cut is placed on the cooling adsorption plate 3 inside the square limit frame 6. First, the propulsion mechanism of the four side walls of the square limit frame 6 is used to drive the four groups of L-shaped correction plates 7 to synchronously advance and displace in the direction of the substrate material. During the displacement of the L-shaped correction plates 7, the substrate material is pushed to move synchronously, forming a self-centering mechanism to automatically correct the position of the substrate material. Then, the adsorption component is started to adsorb the substrate material after position correction on the upper surface of the cooling liquid chamber 5. Then, the first cylinder 8 is started to drive the limiting pressure plate 9 to descend and press and fix the edge of the substrate material (which belongs to the position of the scrap corner and will not affect the normal cutting process). Then, the third cylinder 16 is started to drive the mounting plate 17 to drive the laser cutting component to descend to the corresponding position and perform laser cutting on the substrate material. At the same time, the X-axis moving mechanism and the Y-axis moving mechanism are used to drive the hanging plate 15 to move according to the preset path, so as to drive the laser cutting component to move according to the preset cutting path to achieve mobile cutting. During the cutting process, external cooling water is connected to the cooling liquid chamber 5 in the cooling adsorption plate 3 to achieve efficient and timely cooling of the substrate material. After the entire substrate material is cut, the limit pressure plate 9, the L-shaped correction plate 7 and the laser cutting assembly are driven to reset respectively, and the adsorption of the substrate material by the adsorption assembly is released. Then, the support frame 10 is driven to move laterally on the cutting table 1 by the transverse drive mechanism. When it moves to the top of the cut flexible circuit board, the second cylinder 11 is started to drive the adsorption box 12 to descend until the vacuum suction cup 13 contacts the cut flexible circuit board. At this time, the vacuum suction cup 13 is used to adsorb the cut flexible circuit board, and then the adsorption box 12 is driven to rise and reset, and the cut flexible circuit board is The flexible limit plate 6 is raised, and then the support frame 10 is driven by the transverse driving mechanism to move to the top of the finished product storage box 14. At this time, the adsorption of the flexible circuit board is released, so that it falls naturally into the finished product storage box 14. The above operation is repeated until all the flexible circuit boards inside the square limit frame 6 are sorted out, and only scraps remain on the upper surface of the cutting table 1. Finally, it is only necessary to manually collect and clean the scraps remaining on the upper surface of the cutting table 1, which eliminates the need to manually sort out the flexible circuit boards one by one, and completes the efficient cutting processing of the entire flexible circuit board substrate material.
