[0022] Etching equipment is used in the automated production of circuit boards. The circuit boards are driven into the etching equipment by a conveyor. A spray nozzle is set in the etching equipment to spray out etching liquid. The etching liquid contacts the surface of the circuit board to react chemically, thus completing the manufacture of the circuit board. In the related art, the remaining etching liquid after a single circuit board is etched still contains a large amount of effective substances, which can be recycled for secondary use. However, manual recycling increases labor costs, and the etching liquid contains acidic and harmful substances. There are certain safety hazards in the recycling process, which is not conducive to production.

[0023] For this purpose, refer to Figure 1The utility model provides a circuit board etching device with liquid circulation, including an etching box 200, a conveyor 100 and a recovery pool 220. The two sides of the etching box 200 are symmetrically arranged at the opening. The inner wall of the etching box 200 is provided with a plurality of spray nozzles 201, and the plurality of spray nozzles 201 are connected to the top wall of the etching box 200. The upper part of the etching box 200 is provided with a liquid outlet box 210, and the plurality of spray nozzles 201 are all connected to the liquid outlet box 210. The conveyor 100 is arranged in the etching box 200 through the opening, and both ends of the conveyor 100 extend out of the opening. The conveyor 100 includes a plurality of rollers 110, and the plurality of rollers 110 rotate to drive the circuit board to make a linear motion along the length direction of the conveyor 100. The plurality of spray nozzles 201 are all located directly above the rollers 110, and there is a clearance 111 between the rollers 110 to accommodate the etching liquid flowing down. The recovery pool 220 is arranged in the etching box 200 and is located below the avoidance position 111. The recovery pool 220 includes a guide groove 221 and a recovery box 222. The guide groove 221 is conical, and the narrow end of the cone is connected to the recovery box 222. The recovery pool 220 is connected to the liquid outlet box 210 through the conduit 240. It can be understood that the circuit board is placed on the conveying device 100, and as the roller 110 rotates, it is driven into the etching box 200, and the spray nozzle 201 starts to spray the etching liquid, so that the etching liquid fully contacts the surface of the circuit board and reacts chemically. After the etching is completed, the circuit board is driven by the conveying device 100 to leave the etching box 200. During etching, the etching liquid, due to its own gravity, passes through the inner wall of the etching box 200 or the avoidance position 111, and is collected in the recovery pool 220 located below, and then enters the recovery box 222, and enters the liquid outlet box 210 again through the conduit 240, and is recycled and reused, making full use of the effective chemical substances in the etching liquid and improving the utilization rate of the etching liquid. In addition, the etching liquid can be recovered during the etching process without any additional labor cost, and the workers will not come into direct contact with the etching liquid, thus reducing safety hazards.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 It can be understood that the side of the etching box 200 is connected to a replenishing tank 230, and the replenishing tank 230 is connected to the liquid outlet tank 210 through a conduit 240 to replenish new etching liquid. The etching box 200 is also provided with a control device, and an electromagnetic valve is provided between the etching box 200 and the replenishing tank 230, and the control device is electrically connected to the electromagnetic valve. The recovery box 222 is provided with a concentration detector 223, and the concentration detector 223 is electrically connected to the control device. When the etching liquid concentration in the recovery box 222 is lower than the rated value, the control device controls the electromagnetic valve to open. The etching liquid concentration in the recovery box 222 is obtained through the concentration detector 223, and then the controller controls the replenishing tank 230 to replenish the etching liquid stock solution to ensure that the etching liquid concentration sprayed from the spray nozzle 201 meets the standard, thereby ensuring the etching processing effect and optimizing the use.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 The multiple spray nozzles 201 are all inclined or vertically arranged toward the center line direction of the etching box 200 to maximize the contact between the etching liquid and the circuit board and improve the etching effect and efficiency.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The conveying device 100 includes a driving member 120, a driving shaft 130 and a plurality of driven shafts 140. The rollers 110 are arranged at intervals on the driven shafts 140. The plurality of driven shafts 140 are connected to the driving shaft 130. The driving member 120 is connected to and drives the driving shaft 130 to drive the rollers 110 to rotate. The driving member 120 includes a motor 121, a driving wheel 122, a driven wheel 123 and a transmission belt 124. The driving wheel 122 is connected to the output end of the motor 121, and the driven wheel 123 is connected to the driving shaft 130. The driving wheel 122 and the driven wheel 123 are arranged parallel to the axial direction of the driving shaft 130, and the driving wheel 122 and the driven wheel 123 are connected by a transmission belt 124 sleeved on the outside. The motor 121 drives the driving wheel 122 to rotate, and the driving wheel 122 drives the driven wheel 123 to rotate through the transmission belt 124, thereby driving the driving shaft 130 to rotate. Since the driving wheel 122 and the driven wheel 123 are arranged parallel to the axial direction of the driving shaft 130 and connected by the transmission belt 124, the driving wheel 122 and the driven wheel 123 rotate non-coaxially, which can improve the controllability of the rotation speed of the driving shaft 130, thereby improving the reliability of the transmission. The motor 121 can be a servo motor 121, a reduction motor 121 or a synchronous motor 121, etc., as long as it can drive the driving wheel 122 to rotate.

[0027] Reference Figure 2 The driven shaft 140 is arranged orthogonally to the driving shaft 130, and a plurality of driving magnetic wheels 131 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the driving shaft 130, and the driving magnetic wheel 131 is concentrically arranged with the driving shaft 130. One end of the driven shaft 140 close to the driving magnetic wheel 131 is fixedly connected to the driven magnetic wheel 141, and the driven magnetic wheel 141 is concentrically arranged with the driven shaft 140. The rotation of the driving shaft 130 drives the driving magnetic wheel 131 to rotate. The driving magnetic wheel 131 and the driven magnetic wheel 141 are acted upon by magnetic force and inertia, so that the driven magnetic wheel 141 also rotates with the driving magnetic wheel 131, thereby driving the multiple driven shafts 140 to rotate synchronously, thereby causing the circuit boards on the driven shafts 140 to be transported in a direction. Since the driving magnetic wheel 131 and the driven magnetic wheel 141 are not in contact with each other, no friction occurs during the rotation process, thereby reducing wear and tear to extend the service life of the weighing transmission device and reduce operating noise. In addition, by using a driving shaft 130 to simultaneously drive the multiple driven shafts 140 to rotate synchronously, the stability of the synchronous rotation of the driven shafts 140 can be improved, thereby reducing the possibility of displacement or wear of the circuit boards due to the asynchronous rotation of the driven shafts 140.

[0028] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
