Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of PCB circuit board photography. Background Art

[0002] After the PCB circuit board is produced, it needs to be tested, and manual testing is relatively slow.

[0003] Some companies use PCB cameras to automatically collect pictures and analyze them to draw conclusions. However, there are still the following problems that need to be solved:

[0004] 1. The light source is difficult to adjust;

[0005] 2. The light intensity of the same power is not enough, and the light distribution is not uniform enough;

[0006] 3. PCBs come in different shapes. Therefore, when you encounter a round PCB board, or a special-shaped PCB board with both curved edges and straight edges, it is not easy to fix the PCB board, which reduces work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0015] The camera is fixed to the connecting frame, is arranged on the upper surface of the reflective plate, and faces the upper surface of the movable bed through the light transmission hole;

[0016] The light source group has four adjustable angle light source modules arranged in an array on the circumferential edge of the lower end of the connecting frame, and the light emitted by the LED light-emitting module provided in each light source module irradiates the upper surface of the movable bed;

[0017] A PCB board support module group includes a first support module and a second support module. The first support module is square, and the second support module includes a base and a limit plate arranged at the upper end of the base. The outer wall of the limit plate cooperates with the upper end surface of the base to form four steps. The outer wall position of the limit plate corresponding to at least one of the four steps is a flat surface. The outer wall position of the limit plate corresponding to at least one of the four steps is an arc-shaped surface.

[0018] The controller is electrically connected to the plane moving device, the lifting device, the light source group and the camera.

[0019] The base is fixedly connected with the limiting plate by bolts. The base is square. The limiting plate is provided with four outer side walls, three of which are arc-shaped surfaces and one is a flat surface.

If the area of ​​the PCB board is relatively large, there will be bending in the middle. At this time, the first support module is placed at the lower end of the middle position of the PCB board to prevent / reduce deformation.

[0022] After placing the PCB board on the PCB board support module group, the controller takes pictures through the camera. The controller can drive the plane moving device to adjust the relative position of the PCB board and the camera plane. Secondly, the controller can drive the lifting device to adjust the distance between the camera and the PCB board.
