Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of PCBA board cleaning technology, and in particular to a magnetic ball flipping mechanism and method for cleaning PCBA boards. Background Technology

[0002] During the reflow or wave soldering process of PCBA boards, tiny solder balls can easily form on the board surface, at the bottom of component leads, or in gaps due to solder paste printing, flux splatter, or improper process parameters. These solder balls can cause short circuits and reduce product reliability. Therefore, removing solder balls is a crucial step before final inspection.

[0003] In the industry, most PCBA solder ball cleaning processes use stripping fixtures, which easily leads to wasted effort, solder ball scattering, and high quality risks. Furthermore, when cleaning solder balls with brushes, solder balls, flux residue, and dust inevitably adhere to and become entangled on the brush bristles during the cleaning process. Over time, the brushes become dirty and brittle, drastically reducing cleaning efficiency. They may even scratch the PCBA board or components due to hard objects on the bristles, requiring the machine to be stopped and the brushes manually disassembled and cleaned by operators. This not only results in low production efficiency but also inconsistent cleaning results and high labor costs. Summary of the Invention

[0017] The present invention proposes a magnetic flipping method for a PCBA board cleaning solder bead magnetic flipping mechanism, comprising the following steps:

[0018] S1: The carrier carrying the PCBA board is transported to the inner wall of the flipping frame by the conveyor belt. After the carrier is moved to the appropriate position by the moving rollers of the flipping frame, the switch of the electromagnet assembly is activated. The electromagnet assembly generates magnetic force and magnetically connects with the outer surface of the blocking block. After the blocking block is fixed, one end of the blocking block is inserted into the inner wall of the flipping frame to block the passage of the carrier in the flipping frame. After turning the handle, one end of the handle slides in the arc groove of the flipping frame and drives the carrier to flip so that the side of the PCBA board on the carrier that needs to be cleaned is facing down.

[0019] S2: After the lifting hydraulic cylinder is started, it drives the push frame to rise. The push frame drives the lifting frame to rise inside the collection frame. After the lifting frame is limited by the inner wall of the collection frame, it drives the collection frame to rise. The connecting spring is stretched, and the brush contacts the lower surface of the PCBA board. At the same time, one end of the rotating roller and one end of the cam assembly are located on one side of the rotating jaw and the fixed jaw.

[0020] S3: The moving hydraulic cylinder on the drive frame starts, pushing the support sleeve and drive housing to move synchronously. The drive housing drives the rotating jaw and fixed jaw to one end of the roller and cam assembly. The dual-axis motor inside the drive housing starts, driving the long gear to rotate. The long gear drives the gear of the drive screw to rotate. The drive screw drives the threaded frame connected to it to move. The threaded frame drives the clamping link to deflect, so that the fixed jaw clamps one end of the cam assembly. At the same time, the output shaft of the other end of the dual-axis motor drives the transmission bevel gear assembly to rotate. After transmission through the synchronous belt and synchronous pulley, it drives the transmission gear to rotate. The transmission gear drives the moving rod to move. The moving rod pulls the moving frame to move. After the drive link deflects, it drives the rotating jaw to deflect and clamp the roller. The rotating motor on the drive housing starts, driving the support ring to rotate through the gear transmission. The support ring drives the roller to rotate through the rotating jaw. At the same time, the moving assembly starts, driving the drive frame to move. The roller moves on the outer surface of the moving guide rail, cleaning the solder balls on the outer surface of the PCBA board.

[0021] S4: After cleaning, the rollers and lifting frame are reset, the electromagnet assembly is de-energized, the handle is rotated, the tilting frame is reset, the manual press of the blocking block is lowered, the reset spring is compressed, so that the channel inside the tilting frame is unobstructed, the manual push of the carrier is moved, so that the cleaned PCBA board can proceed to the next process.

[0022] S5: When cleaning is required, the hydraulic cylinder of the moving component drives the drive frame to descend synchronously with the lifting frame, maintaining the gripping of the rotating and fixed grippers on the roller and cam assembly. The moving hydraulic cylinder continues to push, and after the drive housing is limited by the guide rail on the drive frame, the moving hydraulic cylinder continues to push, pushing the support sleeve to move. After the support sleeve pushes the fixed gripper to move, it pushes the cam assembly in the insertion ring to move, so that the cam part of the cam assembly is located on the outer surface of the push rod. The rotating gripper drives the roller to rotate, so that the push rod of the push plate below is located at the most convex part of the cam. After the push rod pushes the push plate to move downward, the push ring pushes the solder beads or impurities adhering to the outer surface of the connecting sleeve. At the same time, after the suction nozzle and dry ice nozzle are activated, the dry ice nozzle cleans the solder beads, and the suction nozzle sucks up the generated gas, reducing the residue of solder beads and impurities on the brush, thus completing the cleaning of the brush.

[0023] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0024] 1. By setting up a flipping device, the carrier containing the PCBA board can be flipped for easy cleaning, while preventing the solder balls from entering other positions. The flipping frame is driven by rotating the handle, which can also flip the PCBA board. The moving rollers make it easy to push the PCBA directly in. The operation is simple and convenient. When the electromagnet component is powered on, it can block the blocking block to prevent the carrier from falling after flipping, reduce wasted action, eliminate quality risks, and solve the technical problems of existing PCBA cleaning solder ball cleaning that easily causes wasted action and solder ball scattering, resulting in high quality risks.

[0025] 2. By setting up a cleaning device, PCBA boards can be cleaned. The rotation of the brush can clean the solder beads attached to the outer surface of the PCBA board. The rotating roller can be rotated by the rotation of the rotating jaws. In order to clean the brush, after the push rod contacts the cam part of the cam assembly, the push rod pushes the push plate. The push ring on the push plate cleans the solder beads and impurities attached to the outer surface of the connecting sleeve. The dry ice sprayed by the dry ice nozzle can clean the solder beads pushed out by the push ring and the solder beads on the brush, reducing the residue of solder beads. This solves the technical problems of low production efficiency, inconsistent cleaning effect and high labor cost of existing PCBA cleaning. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0039] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

[0040] Reference Figures 1-12A PCBA board cleaning solder ball magnetic flipping mechanism includes a flipping frame 1. A camera 11 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the top plate of the flipping frame 1. The camera 11 can capture the solder balls on the outer surface of the cleaned PCBA board and determine whether the cleaning is qualified. It can also be judged manually by using a magnifying glass. The outer surface of the flipping frame 1 is provided with a flipping device, a cleaning device and a driving device.

[0041] like Figures 2-3 As shown, in order to rotate the PCBA board, the rotating device is located on the outer surface of the rotating frame 1 and rotates the carrier containing the PCBA board. The rotating device includes a rotating frame 2, and the rotation of the rotating frame 2 drives the PCBA board to be cleaned to rotate.

[0042] Specifically, to facilitate the flipping of the flipping frame 2, both ends of the flipping frame 2 are rotatably connected to the outer surface of the flipping frame 1 through bearings. To drive the flipping frame 2 to flip, a handle 21 is fixedly installed at one end of the flipping frame 2. Alternatively, the handle 21 can be replaced with a motor to drive the flipping frame 2 to flip. The appropriate drive method can be changed according to the usage requirements. The outer surface of the handle 21 is slidably inserted into the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove of the flipping frame 1 through rollers, thereby limiting the position of the handle 21. To facilitate the movement of the carrier transported in the previous process on the inner wall of the flipping frame 2, a movable roller 22 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the flipping frame 2. Multiple movable rollers 22 are distributed at equal intervals on the lower surface of the groove of the flipping frame 2.

[0043] Specifically, to prevent the carrier with the PCBA board from falling during rotation, an electromagnet assembly 23 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the rotating frame 2. The electromagnet assembly 23 includes a housing, an electromagnet installed inside the housing, and a control switch. A blocking block 24 is slidably inserted into the inner wall of the electromagnet assembly 23. To facilitate the return of the blocking block 24 after descent, a return spring 25 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the blocking block 24. One end of the return spring 25 is fixedly installed to the inner wall of the rotating frame 2. To facilitate the fixation of the position of the blocking block 24, the outer surface of the electromagnet of the electromagnet assembly 23 is magnetically connected to the outer surface of the blocking block 24. During rotation, after the electromagnet is energized, it can attract the blocking block 24 and fix the position of the blocking block 24. Thus, the blocking block 24 can block the groove channel of the rotating frame 2, preventing the carrier from falling through the groove during rotation. When the carrier moves, when the blocking block 24 is pressed down to descend, the lower end of the blocking block 24 inserts into the lower end of the groove of the rotating frame 2, allowing the carrier to enter the next process through the rotating frame 2.

[0044] like Figures 4-8As shown, in order to quickly clean PCBA boards, the cleaning device is located on the outer surface of the flip frame 1 and cleans the PCBA boards that need to be cleaned of solder balls.

A sliding drawer can be installed inside the collection frame 32 to facilitate the removal of the solder balls collected in the inner collection frame 32 for cleaning, thus eliminating the need to disassemble the collection frame 32. A pusher 35 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the lifting frame 34. One end of the pusher 35 passes through the lower surface of the collection frame 32 and is fixedly installed on one end of the piston rod of the lifting hydraulic cylinder 3.

To facilitate the movement of the push plate 5, a push rod 52 with ball bearings is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the push plate 5. One end of the push rod 52 passes through the inner wall of the rotating roller 41 and extends into it. To prevent the push rod 52 from moving when it does not need to move, a support spring 53 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the push rod 52. One end of the support spring 53 is fixedly installed in the inner wall of the rotating roller 41. The inner wall of the rotating roller 41 is rotated by bearings.

[0048] like Figures 9-12 As shown, in order to facilitate the control and disassembly of the roller brush mechanism, the drive device is located on the outer surface of the flip frame 1 and drives the roller brush mechanism to move and rotate. The drive device includes a rotating gripper 65, and the rotation of the rotating gripper 65 drives the brush 43 to rotate.

[0049] Specifically, in order to drive the rotating gripper 65 to rotate, the drive device also includes a moving component 6.

[0052] The present invention proposes a magnetic flipping method for a PCBA board cleaning solder bead magnetic flipping mechanism, comprising the following steps:

[0053] S1: The carrier carrying the PCBA board is transported to the inner wall of the flipping frame 2 by the conveyor belt. After the carrier is moved to a suitable position by the moving rollers 22 of the flipping frame 2, the switch of the electromagnet assembly 23 is activated. The electromagnet assembly 23 generates magnetic force and magnetically connects with the outer surface of the blocking block 24. After the blocking block 24 is fixed, one end of the blocking block 24 is inserted into the inner wall of the flipping frame 2 to block the passage of the carrier in the flipping frame 2. After the handle 21 is turned, one end of the handle 21 slides in the arc groove of the flipping frame 1 and drives the carrier to flip so that the side of the PCBA board on the carrier that needs to be cleaned is facing down.

[0054] S2: After the lifting hydraulic cylinder 3 is started, it drives the push frame 35 to rise. The push frame 35 drives the lifting frame 34 to rise inside the collection frame 32. After the lifting frame 34 is limited by the inner wall of the collection frame 32, it drives the collection frame 32 to rise. The connecting spring 33 is stretched, and the brush 43 contacts the lower surface of the PCBA board. At the same time, one end of the rotating roller 41 and one end of the cam assembly 55 are located on one side of the rotating gripper 65 and the fixed gripper 71.

[0055] S3: The movable hydraulic cylinder 84 on the drive frame 61 is activated, pushing the support sleeve 7 and the drive housing 62 to move synchronously. The drive housing 62 drives the rotating gripper 65 and the fixed gripper 71 to be located at one end of the rotating roller 41 and the cam assembly 55. The dual-axis motor 8 inside the drive housing 62 is activated, driving the long gear 81 to rotate. The long gear 81 drives the gear of the drive screw 72 to rotate. The drive screw 72 drives the threaded frame 73 connected to it to move. The threaded frame 73 drives the clamping link 74 to deflect, so that the fixed gripper 71 clamps one end of the cam assembly 55. At the same time, the output shaft of the other end of the dual-axis motor 8 drives the transmission bevel gear set. The component 82 rotates, and through the transmission of the synchronous belt and synchronous pulley, it drives the transmission gear 83 to rotate. The transmission gear 83 drives the moving rod 66 to move, and the moving rod 66 pulls the moving frame to move. The driving link 68 deflects, and then drives the rotating jaw 65 to deflect, clamping the rotating roller 41. The rotating motor 64 on the drive housing 62 starts, and through the transmission of the gears, it drives the support ring 63 to rotate. The support ring 63 drives the rotating roller 41 to rotate through the rotating jaw 65. At the same time, the moving component 6 starts, driving the drive frame 61 to move, and driving the rotating roller 41 to move on the outer surface of the moving guide rail 4 to clean the solder balls on the outer surface of the PCBA board.

[0056] S4: After cleaning is completed, the rotating roller 41 and lifting frame 34 are reset, the electromagnet assembly 23 is de-energized, the handle 21 is rotated, the flipping frame 2 is reset, the manual press of the blocking block 24 is lowered, the reset spring 25 is compressed, so that the channel in the flipping frame 2 is unobstructed, the manual push of the carrier is moved, so that the cleaned PCBA board can proceed to the next process.

[0057] S5: When cleaning is required, the hydraulic cylinder of the moving component 6 drives the drive frame 61 to cooperate with the lifting frame 34 to descend synchronously, maintaining the gripping of the rotating jaw 65 and the fixed jaw 71 on the rotating roller 41 and the cam assembly 55. The moving hydraulic cylinder 84 continues to push, and after the drive housing 62 is limited by the guide rail on the drive frame 61, the moving hydraulic cylinder 84 continues to push, pushing the support sleeve 7 to move. After the support sleeve 7 pushes the fixed jaw 71 to move, it pushes the cam assembly 55 in the insertion ring 54 to move, so that the cam assembly 55... The cam part is located on the outer surface of the push rod 52. The rotating jaw 65 drives the roller 41 to rotate, so that the push rod 52 of the push plate 5 located below is located behind the most convex part of the cam. After the push rod 52 pushes the push plate 5 to move downward, the push ring 51 pushes the solder beads or impurities stuck to the outer surface of the connecting sleeve 42. At the same time, after the suction nozzle 57 and the dry ice nozzle 56 are started, the dry ice nozzle 56 cleans the solder beads, and the suction nozzle 57 sucks up the generated gas, reducing the residue of solder beads and impurities on the brush 43, thus completing the cleaning of the brush 43.
