Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automated processing technology, specifically to a fully automated PP circuit board processing equipment and processing method. Background Technology

[0002] Polypropylene (PP) circuit boards are increasingly used in specific high-frequency communication and flexible electronics fields due to their excellent high-frequency performance, low dielectric constant, and cost advantages. However, PP material itself is relatively soft and has a low heat distortion temperature, making it prone to deformation, burrs, and melting during processing, which places higher demands on processing precision and process control.

[0003] Currently, the processing of PP circuit boards typically employs segmented semi-automated equipment or relies on manual operation. Specifically, the PP rolls are first slit and cross-cut using cutting equipment, a process often handled by independent cutting machines, requiring manual loading, unloading, and positioning, resulting in low efficiency. The cut boards are then manually arranged and stacked by operators, which is not only labor-intensive but also highly susceptible to scratches, contamination, or uneven stacking due to human error, affecting the quality of subsequent processing. In the drilling stage, traditional CNC drilling machines or punch presses are commonly used. While these offer some automation, the lack of effective coordination between machines necessitates manual material transfer after each step, causing production interruptions and limiting overall efficiency. The final unloading and stacking stages also heavily rely on manual labor, making continuous, unmanned production difficult. Summary of the Invention

[0041] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0042] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "horizontal," "vertical," "top," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of describing the invention and for simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations of the invention. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0043] Please see Figures 1 to 17The present invention provides an embodiment of a fully automatic PP circuit board processing equipment and processing method. The PP board enters the cutting device 1 through the unwinding mechanism 11, is first longitudinally slit by the slitting cutting mechanism 12, and then transversely cut by the cross-blade cutting mechanism 13. The cut board enters the stacking device 2 for stacking and separation. Then, the punching device 3 performs positioning punching. Finally, the board is automatically stacked by the unloading device 4 and transported out by the AGV trolley 42, completing the fully automatic processing flow, realizing efficient and stable production, further improving production efficiency and reducing labor costs.

[0044] The cutting device 1 includes a housing 100 and an unwinding mechanism 11, a slitting and cutting mechanism 12, and a cross-cutting mechanism 13, which are sequentially installed inside the housing 100. The cutting directions of the slitting and cutting mechanism 12 and the cross-cutting mechanism 13 are perpendicular to each other. The unwinding mechanism 11 is used to place the roll material. The roll material is pulled to the slitting and cutting mechanism 12, where it is slitting and cutting into several strips of equal width that are continuously conveyed. The strips are continuously pulled to the cross-cutting mechanism 13, where the cross-cutting mechanism 13 cuts the strips simultaneously into independent sheets, thus achieving the division of multiple sheets into boards.

[0045] The unwinding mechanism 11 includes an extension mounting frame 113, a magnetic powder tensioner 111, and an unwinding air shaft 112. One or more unwinding air shafts 112 are mounted on the extension mounting frame 113, and the unwinding air shafts 112 are linked to the magnetic powder tensioner 111. The roll material is inserted into the uninflated unwinding air shaft 112, and the unwinding air shaft 112 is inflated by an inflation system to reach a fully inflated state, thereby fixing the unwinding air shaft 12 to the roll material. The roll material is then pulled to the slitting and cutting mechanism 12. The magnetic powder tensioner 111 generates a magnetic force perpendicular to the traction direction. This magnetic force can offset part of the traction force, causing the unwinding air shaft 112 to rotate slowly, maintaining the tension of the roll material, and preventing the traction speed from being too fast, which would cause the roll material to loosen and stack and lose tension.

[0046] The machine housing 100 is also equipped with a roller traction mechanism (not shown in the figure), which is used to pull the roll material to the slitting and cutting mechanism 12 and continuously convey it to the rear.

[0047] The slitting and cutting mechanism 12 includes a blade holder assembly 122 and an adjustment assembly 121. The blade holder assembly 122 includes a linear sliding module 1221 and several mounting brackets 1222 slidably connected to the linear sliding module 1221. Each mounting bracket 1222 is equipped with a lifting cylinder 1223 and a movable bracket 1224 connected to the movable end of the lifting cylinder 1223. The bottom of the movable bracket 1224 is equipped with an infrared heating module 1225 and a cutting blade 1226. The top of the mounting bracket 1222 is equipped with a insertion hole 1227. The adjustment assembly 121... 1 includes a linear drive module 1211 and an adjusting cylinder 1212 connected to the movable end of the linear drive module 1221. The movable end of the adjusting cylinder 1212 is connected to an insert post 1213, which can be inserted into a insertion hole 1227. The linear drive module 1221 drives the adjusting cylinder 1212 to move left and right, so that the insert post 1213 on the adjusting cylinder 1212 is aligned with the insertion hole 1227 on one of the mounting brackets 1222. The adjusting cylinder 1212 drives the insert post 1213 to move left and right. 13 is inserted into the insertion hole 1227. At this time, the linear transmission module 1221 can simultaneously drive the corresponding mounting bracket 222 to slide along the linear sliding module 1221, realizing the position adjustment of multiple mounting brackets 1222 and controlling the spacing between adjacent mounting brackets 1222. Each mounting bracket 1222 is equipped with a clamping cylinder 1228, and the bottom of the linear sliding module 1211 is also equipped with a clamping plate 1229 for clamping by the clamping cylinder 1228. After the mounting bracket 1222 is adjusted to the preset position, the mounting bracket 122... The clamping cylinder 1228 on the 2 clamps the clamping plate 1229 to fix the position of the mounting frame 1222. After the mounting frame 1222 is fixed, the lifting cylinder 1223 on the mounting frame 1222 drives the movable frame 1224 to move downward. The infrared heating module 1225 approaches the roll material that is pulled to the slitting and cutting mechanism 12 and heats the roll material through the infrared heating module 1225. Then, the cutter 1226 cuts the roll material. After the roll material is heated by the infrared heating module 1225, the cutter 1226 can cut the roll material more easily.

[0048] Multiple unwinding air shafts 112 are installed on the extended mounting frame 113. Each unwinding air shaft 112 is equipped with a roll of material. Multiple rolls of material can be stacked and pulled to the slitting and cutting mechanism 12. The slitting and cutting mechanism 12 cuts multiple rolls of material at the same time, further improving production efficiency.

[0049] Furthermore, the adjustable spacing between the blade holder assemblies 122 allows for adjustment of the cutting width, enabling the cutting of products of different widths from the same roll material, thereby further improving production efficiency.

[0050] Furthermore, the movable end of the linear drive module 1221 is also equipped with a sensor (not shown in the figure), which is used to assist in adjusting the alignment of the embedded post 1213 on the cylinder 1212 with the insertion hole 1227 on the mounting bracket 1222.

[0051] Each movable frame 1227 is equipped with a dust suction hood 1230. The dust suction hood 1230 has a connection interface and a socket opening at its upper and lower ends, respectively. The socket opening fits into the cutter 1226 from top to bottom. The connection interface is used for the vacuum adsorption system. The vacuum adsorption system draws in air, causing the socket opening to generate a negative pressure airflow. The debris cut by the cutter 1226 and the roll material is adsorbed by the negative pressure airflow of the socket opening, preventing debris from adhering to the subsequent strip material and reducing the impact of debris on subsequent processing steps. At the same time, the negative pressure airflow can also cool the heated roll material and prevent the strip material from deforming.

[0052] The machine housing 100 is equipped with an online thickness measuring mechanism 14, which is located between the unwinding mechanism 11 and the slitting and cutting mechanism 12. The online thickness measuring mechanism 14 includes at least a diffuse reflection sensor and a point sensor. The diffuse reflection sensor and the point sensor work together to measure the thickness of the roll material in real time through the reflection parameters.

[0053] The machine housing 100 is also equipped with two edge material winding assemblies 15. The two edge material winding assemblies 15 are installed on both sides of the machine housing 100 and are located behind the slitting and cutting mechanism 12. Each edge material winding assembly 15 includes a rotary motor 151 and a winding roller 152 that is linked to the rotary motor 151. The waste material from the slitting and cutting is wound up by the two winding rollers 152. Furthermore, the winding roller 152 is also equipped with a limiting plate 153, which can limit the position of the winding strip and is more conducive to the winding of the strip material.

[0054] The horizontal cutting mechanism 13 includes a drive motor 131 and a rotating shaft 132 linked to the drive motor 131. At least two cams 133 are sleeved on the rotating shaft 132. Each cam 132 is covered with a movable wheel. The bottom of the movable wheel is connected in sequence with an adjusting screw 135 and an adjusting nut 136. The adjusting screw 135 and the adjusting nut 136 are threaded together. The bottom of several adjusting nuts 136 is connected to an upper fixed plate 137. An upper cutting blade 138 is provided on the upper fixed plate 137. A lower fixed plate 139 is fixedly provided on the machine housing 100. A lower cutting blade 1391 is provided on the lower fixed plate 139. The upper fixed plate 137 and the lower fixed plate 139 are vertically aligned. The drive motor 131 drives the rotating shaft 132 and the cams 133 to rotate, which can make the upper fixed plate 137 and the upper cutting blade 138 reciprocate up and down. The height of the upper fixed plate 137 can be adjusted by rotating the adjusting screw 135 and the adjusting nut 136.

[0055] The upper cutting blade 138 reciprocates up and down, forming a cutting action with the lower cutting blade 1391 to cross-cut the strip material after slitting, producing sheet-shaped finished products.

[0056] The stacking device 2 includes a frame 21 on which a supporting mechanism 22, a distributing mechanism 23, and an alternating transmission mechanism 24 are sequentially arranged. The supporting mechanism 22 and the distributing mechanism 23 are arranged front to back to form a conveying track. The supporting mechanism 22 is connected to the cutting device 1, and the cut sheets are conveyed from front to back in the conveying track. The alternating transmission mechanism 24 includes a first transmission component 241 and a second transmission component 242, which are located on both sides of the conveying track, respectively. The distributing mechanism 23 includes a lifting module 231 and a mounting plate 232. The mounting plate 232 is provided with a fixed plate 233 and two movable plates, wherein the two movable plates cover... It includes movable plate 234 and movable plate 235. Fixed plate 233 is fixedly connected to mounting plate 232. Mounting plate 32 is also provided with two movable frames and two propulsion cylinders 39. The two movable frames include movable frame 237 and movable frame 238. Movable plate 234 and movable plate 235 are movably connected to mounting plate 232 through movable frame 237 and movable frame 238. They are controlled to move in opposite directions or in the opposite direction by two propulsion cylinders (not shown) to adjust the spacing of multiple stacked plates. At the same time, lifting module 231 can drive mounting plate 232 and components set on mounting plate 232 to move up and down.

[0057] The supporting mechanism 22 includes a support frame 221, a movable cylinder 222, and a supporting plate 223. The top end of the support frame 221 is hinged to one end of the supporting plate 223, the movable end of the movable cylinder 222 is hinged to the other end of the supporting plate 223, and the fixed end of the movable cylinder 222 is hinged to the frame 21, thereby realizing the lifting and tilting of the supporting plate 223 and facilitating material conveying.

[0058] The alternating transmission mechanism 24 has two transmission components, namely the first dual-axis motion module 241 and the second dual-axis motion module 242. The first adsorption component 243 and the second adsorption component 244 set on them are composed of several vacuum nozzles 245, which are used to adsorb and move materials. The first adsorption component 243 and the second adsorption component 244 are staggered to avoid interference, realize alternating stacking, and improve stacking efficiency. During the stacking process, the lifting module 231 simultaneously drives the fixed plate 233, the first movable plate 234 and the second movable plate 235 to descend. The fixed plate 233, the first movable plate 234 and the second movable plate 235 are always located on the same horizontal plane, and the number of stacked materials on the fixed plate 233, the first movable plate 234 and the second movable plate 235 is the same.

[0059] Each of the fixed plate 233, movable plate one 234, and movable plate two 235 is equipped with a pressing assembly 25. The pressing assembly 25 includes a lifting cylinder 251 and a rotating cylinder 252. The lifting cylinder 251 drives the rotating cylinder 252 to move up and down. The movable end of the rotating cylinder 252 is connected to the pressing plate 253 to press the material and ensure neat stacking. When stacking, the pressing plate 253 rotates to the outside of the fixed plate 233, movable plate one 234, or movable plate two 235 without affecting the stacking of the plates. When the stacking is completed, the lifting cylinder 251 drives the rotating cylinder 252 to move upward, and then the rotating cylinder 252 rotates the pressing plate 253 so that the pressing plate 253 is located on the material on the fixed plate 233, movable plate one 234, or movable plate two 235. Finally, the lifting cylinder 251 drives the rotating cylinder 252 and the pressing plate 253 to move downward to achieve pressing.

[0060] The fixed plate 233, movable plate one 234 and movable plate two 235 are provided with clearance grooves 26 at their rear ends, which facilitates the receiving equipment of subsequent equipment to clamp materials and drag and transmit materials.

[0061] Furthermore, a transmission mechanism 27 is provided at the bottom of the frame 21, which is used to drive the frame 21 to the drilling device 3.

The feeding mechanism 32 includes a dual-axis motion module 321 and a plurality of clamping cylinders 322 disposed in the dual-axis motion module 321.

[0063] The feeding mechanism 32 is mainly used to clamp and transmit the grouped stacked materials on the stacking device 2 to the punching mechanism 33. The dual-axis motion module 321 works with several clamping cylinders 322. The clamping cylinders 322 clamp multiple groups of stacked materials, and the dual-axis motion module 321 drives the clamping cylinders 322 and the stacked materials to move to the bottom of the punching mechanism 33, and then punching is achieved by the punching mechanism 33.

[0069] In other embodiments, the adapter may have other structures.

[0070] The feeding device 4 includes a machine base 41 on which a bearing component 43, a moving component 44, and a stacking component 45 are mounted.

The AGV trolley 42 is located directly below the fork arm 452. The fork arm 452 carries a pallet, which is used to stack and support soft boards. The second lifting module 451 drives the fork arm 452 to continuously descend. After reaching the preset position, the AGV trolley 42 can lift the pallet and take away the material according to the preset route. Another AGV trolley 42 with an empty pallet moves to the corresponding position of the fork arm 452. The fork arm 452 and the second lifting module 451 lift the empty pallet for the next round of stacking.

[0072] The first moving module 433 includes a lifting module and a propulsion cylinder disposed at the movable end of the lifting module. The pressure plate 34 is connected to the piston rod of the propulsion cylinder and can drive the pressure plate 34 to perform dual-axis movement.

[0073] The moving component 44 includes a second moving module 441 and a clamping cylinder 442 disposed at the movable end of the second moving module 441. The second moving module 441 includes an X-axis transmission module and a lifting cylinder 412 disposed at the movable end of the X-axis transmission module 411. The clamping cylinder 442 is connected to the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 412.

[0074] The position of the stacking assembly 45 corresponds to that of the AGV trolley 42.

[0075] The AGV trolley 42 is located below the fork arm 452, which carries an empty pallet. When material is conveyed to the carrying component 43, the moving component 44 drives the material from the carrying component 43 toward the stacking component 45. Simultaneously, the first moving module 433 performs a dual-axis movement, supporting the material away from the end of the clamping cylinder 442. The second lifting module 451 drives the fork arm 452 to rise, supporting the material and smoothly transferring it onto the pallet. Subsequently, the first moving module 433 is activated, the first lifting cylinder rises first, then the push cylinder pushes the pressure plate 434. Then, the first lifting module drives the pressure plate 434 to descend to an appropriate height, pushing the pressure plate 434 toward the material and pressing it. After precise positioning to ensure the material is in a neat and orderly position, the moving component 44 starts working again. The X-axis transmission module drives the lifting cylinder and clamping cylinder 442 to move above the positioned material. The lifting cylinder descends to clamp the material with the clamping cylinder 442. Then, the lifting cylinder rises again, and the X-axis transmission module transfers the material horizontally above the stacking component 45. Next, the clamping cylinder 442 releases, and the material falls onto the pallet at the workstation of the stacking component 45. The lifting module 432 continues to descend, continuously stacking the material on the pallet. Once fully loaded, the pallet is lifted by the AGV trolley 42 and automatically travels to the next process or storage area. The entire process is automated, achieving precise and efficient material receiving and transfer.
