[0002] FPC is a highly reliable flexible printed circuit board with the characteristics of high wiring density, light weight and thin thickness. When the FPC needs to be processed, it is usually necessary to fix and tension the flexible board through a loading device, and then transfer it to each process for processing.

[0003] Before processing the FPC soft board, it is necessary to pick up the material. The commonly used picking structure usually adopts a mechanical clamp or an air pump with a suction cup to grab the FPC soft board. The mechanical clamp can only be used to grab from the edge of the flexible board. Since the thickness of the FPC soft board is relatively thin, it is easy to miss during grabbing or grab several FPC soft boards at a time when several FPC soft boards overlap. After the flexible soft board has undergone the gold-plating process, in order to avoid oxidation of the surface of the flexible circuit board, the product is usually placed in water. In this environment, the FPC soft board is grabbed by an air pump with a suction cup. Before the FPC soft board is adsorbed, a large amount of water will flow into the air pump. For this reason, a picking device that is convenient for taking out the FPC soft board in water is proposed. Utility Model Content
