[0037] The technical solution of the utility model is further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the embodiment of the utility model provides a stamping die for a flexible circuit board, comprising an upper die assembly 1, a lower die assembly 2, a guide assembly 3 and a stacking guide block 4;

[0039] The upper die assembly 1 is located on the top of the lower die assembly 2, and the guide assembly 3 is arranged between the upper die assembly 1 and the lower die assembly 2 to guide and position the upper die assembly 1, thereby ensuring that the upper die assembly 1 can be accurately aligned with the lower die assembly 2 during the stamping process, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the stamping process.

[0041] The fixing plate 12 is arranged at the bottom of the upper die seat 11, the top of the punch head 16 is arranged on the fixing plate 12, the pressing plate 13 is arranged below the fixing plate 12, and the spring 14 is arranged between the fixing plate 12 and the pressing plate 13, and the spring 14 is used to apply a downward elastic force to the pressing plate 13; the pressing plate 13 can press the circuit board substrate on the lower die assembly 2 to avoid position displacement of the flexible circuit board during the stamping process;

At this time, the fixed plate 12 can squeeze the spring 14, prompting the first guide column 15 to slide upward along the first guide hole, so as to avoid deformation caused by excessive pressure on the circuit board substrate.

[0043] The lower die assembly 2 includes a lower die base 21 and a bottom plate 22. The lower die base 21 is arranged on the top of the bottom plate 22. The lower die base 21 and the bottom plate 22 are provided with a punching hole 210 with the same shape as the punching head 16. The punching hole 210 is used to guide and adapt the punching head 16 to punch and move along the hole direction inside it. The punching hole 210 can play a role in positioning and guiding, ensuring that the punching head 16 moves along the correct trajectory during the stamping process, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the stamping operation.

The output shaft of the driving motor 55 is connected to the screw rod 53 to drive the screw rod 53 to rotate. The threaded seat 54 pushes the material moving plate 51 to move along the slide rail 52 as the screw rod 53 rotates, so as to drive the stacked flexible circuit boards to detach from the stacking guide block 4, thereby realizing the regular unloading and conveying of the flexible circuit boards.

[0050] Furthermore, a gap is provided between the stacking guide block 4 and the material moving plate 51 to prevent the material moving plate 51 from rubbing against the stacking guide block 4 during movement, thereby ensuring that the material moving plate 51 can move smoothly during the material unloading process.

[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, further, a pulley avoidance hole 131 is provided at the bottom of the pressing plate 13, and the pulley avoidance hole 131 is used to accommodate the top of the guide pulley 211.

When the mold is stamping, the flexible circuit board to be stamped can be arranged in layers under the guidance of the sliding groove 40, so as to avoid disorderly accumulation of products and affect the subsequent processing of the flexible circuit board; by setting a material unloading conveying mechanism 5 below the stacking guide block 4, the material unloading conveying mechanism 5 can realize automatic unloading and conveying of the flexible circuit board, thereby reducing manual operation, saving time and labor, and effectively improving the production efficiency of the flexible circuit board; the guide pulley 211 set on the lower mold base 21 can guide the circuit board substrate to move along the correct path on the lower mold base 21, so as to avoid position displacement or skewness and cause waste of materials.

[0054] As described above, the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments can still be modified, or some of the technical features can be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the utility model.
