[0028] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the utility model, the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0029] In the description of the present invention, it is necessary to understand that the terms "depth", "thickness", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
[0030] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "install", "connect", "connect", "fix", "set" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0031] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways than those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments of the following disclosure.
[0032] See also Figure 1-2 The embodiment of the utility model provides an FPC bending fixture, comprising: a fixture body 100, a module slot 200 and an FPC slot 300;
[0033] The module card slot 200 is arranged on the front side of the clamp body 100, and the FPC card slot 300 is arranged on the back side of the clamp body 100;
[0034] When the FPC of the module to be bent is bent, the FPC is located in the FPC slot 300 , and the main structure of the module to be bent is located in the module slot 200 .
[0035] Through the setting of the technical scheme of the embodiment of the utility model, when the FPC of the bending module needs to be bent, the main structure part of the bending module can be positioned through the module slot first, and then the FPC is bent according to the FPC slot. The bent FPC is positioned through the FPC slot, thereby realizing precise bending of the FPC, significantly improving the production efficiency, and saving manpower and material resources.
[0036] As a preferred improvement of the present invention, the module slot 200 is connected to the FPC slot 300 and penetrates the fixture body. The penetration setting enables the module to be taken out from one end of the module slot 200 after the FPC is bent.
[0037] As a preferred improvement of the present invention, refer to Figure 1-2 , the shape of the module slot is the plane projection shape of the main structure of the module to be bent and the bent FPC after superposition. Since the FPC of some modules is relatively long or wide, after the FPC is bent, the FPC exceeds the main structure of the module. Therefore, in order to facilitate the removal of the module from one end of the module slot 200 after the FPC is bent, the shape of the module slot is the plane projection shape of the main structure of the module to be bent and the bent FPC after superposition, so that after the bending step is completed, the module can be easily removed by gently pushing the module from the back side of the bending fixture (i.e., the side where the FPC slot is set).
[0038] As a preferred improvement of the present invention, the shape of the FPC slot is the same as the shape of the FPC, which is conducive to the precise bending and alignment of the FPC.
[0039] As a preferred improvement of the utility model, the clamp body is made of bakelite, which has high mechanical strength, good insulation, heat resistance and corrosion resistance, and improves the durability of the bending clamp.
[0040] As a preferred improvement of the present invention, refer to Figure 3 , the module to be bent is a display module;
[0041] The main structure of the display module includes a cover plate and a display screen;
[0042] The module slot 200 includes a cover slot 210 and a display slot 220;
[0043] The depth h1 of the cover plate slot 210 is the same as the thickness of the cover plate of the display module, and the thickness h2 of the display screen slot 220 is the same as the thickness of the display screen. Since the cover plate is usually larger than the display screen, and the two are arranged in a stepped manner, in order to achieve accurate positioning of the display module, the cover plate is placed in the cover plate slot, and the display screen is placed in the display screen slot, so that the main structure does not shake.
[0044] As a preferred improvement of the present invention, the depth h3 of the FPC slot 300 is the same as the thickness of the FPC.
[0045] As a preferred improvement of the present invention, refer to Figure 3 , the thickness of the clamp body 100 is h4=h1+h2+h3.
[0046] As a preferred improvement of the present invention, refer to Figure 4 , the module to be bent is a backlight module;
[0047] The depth h5 of the module slot is the same as the total thickness of the backlight module. Since the backlight module is usually of uniform thickness, the module slot does not include a stepped structure similar to the above, and the depth h5 of the module slot is the total thickness of the backlight module. Preferably, at this time, the thickness of the fixture body can be h4=h3+h5.
[0048] As a preferred improvement of the present invention, the fixture body includes a silk-screen area for silk-screening the model of the module to be bent corresponding to the FPC bending fixture. In order to ensure the precise bending and alignment of the FPC, modules of different models need to be equipped with dedicated FPC bending fixtures. For ease of management and operation, the model of the module to be bent corresponding to the FPC bending fixture can be silk-screened on the fixture body. The position, silk-screening method and effect of the silk-screen area are not limited by the embodiments of the present invention.
[0049] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in other forms. Any technician familiar with the profession may use the technical content disclosed above to change or modify it into an equivalent embodiment with equivalent changes and apply it to other fields. However, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiment based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention still falls within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
