[0028] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be noted that, under the premise of no conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form a new embodiment.

[0029] Please combine Figure 1-9 As shown, a capping jig of this embodiment includes a box body 1, a first through hole 3 is opened on the box body 1, a pressing plate 2 is penetrated through the box body 1, and the pressing plate 2 is slidably connected to the box body 1, a stopper 4 is arranged on the pressing plate 2, the pressing plate 2 can slide along the first direction in the box body 1, so that the stopper 4 at least partially blocks the first through hole 3, and the pressing plate 2 can slide along the second direction in the box body 1, so that the stopper 4 moves away from or close to the first through hole 3. Wherein, taking space as a coordinate system, the first direction is the horizontal direction, i.e., the X-axis direction or the Y-axis direction, and the second direction is the vertical direction, i.e., the Z-axis direction. In this embodiment, the moving direction of the pressing plate 2 has a sequence, first moving along the first direction Y-axis to a position, and then moving along the second direction Z-axis. To return to reset, first move along the second direction, and then move along the first direction to complete the reset action.

[0030] Two ejector pins are inserted into the fixing holes of the rubber cap, and one of them extends outward so that the two ejector pins are parallel to each other. In this way, every two ejector pins are grouped together. When the patch is installed, the mechanical arm of the equipment directly absorbs the rubber cap and places the two extended ejector pin parts on the soldering pad for welding. After welding is completed, the rubber cap at the other end is pulled out from the ejector pin. At this time, one end with the rubber cap extends into the first through hole 3, and the pressing plate 2 is horizontally moved along the first direction so that the stopper 4 is located between the rubber cap and the first through hole 3. The pressing plate 2 is then moved along the second direction to drive the stopper 4 to gradually approach the end of the rubber cap and abut against it. The rubber cap is separated from the ejector pin under the squeezing of the stopper 4, and the rubber cap is quickly removed, which saves time and effort and improves the working efficiency of the equipment when it is in use.

[0031] like Figure 1-2As shown, the box body 1 is made of metal aluminum alloy, and the box body 1 includes a cover plate 11 and a shell 12. The cover plate 11 and the shell 12 are detachably connected to form a receiving cavity 13. The first through hole 3 is set on the cover plate 11. The two sides of the shell 12 have notches 14 connected to the receiving cavity 13, and the pressing plate 2 passes through the receiving cavity 13 and the notch 14. The shell 12 is used to collect the rubber caps that have been removed and removed, so as to facilitate centralized processing; the cover plate 11 can be detachably connected to the shell 12, and the cover plate 11 can be opened to pour out the rubber caps, and the first through hole 3 on the cover plate 11 can be customized and replaced according to different PCB board specifications; the two ends of the pressing plate 2 pass through the notches 14 on both sides to provide force points, and people can hold them with their hands to move the pressing plate 2 and press down the pressing plate 2.

[0032] An elastic structure is provided between the bottom of the housing 12 and the pressing plate 2. An elastic structure is provided between the bottom of the housing 12 and the pressing plate 2, specifically a spring column 7. After the pressing plate 2 is pressed down in the second direction, the stopper 4 removes the rubber cap, and the elastic force of the spring can automatically reset, and then move to the initial position in the first direction, which can save effort.

[0033] Specifically, the number of first through holes 3 is set to be several, and they are arranged in an array on the cover plate 11. The cover plate 11 is provided with several first through holes 3 in an array, and a cap removal area is formed in a concentrated manner. When the PCB board is placed on the cover plate 11, all the rubber caps welded on its surface can enter the first through holes 3, so that all of them can be removed at one time.

[0034] More specifically, the cover plate 11 is further provided with an avoidance opening 15, which is arranged adjacent to the first through hole 3 area on the cover plate 11. In order to increase the welding rate, two PCB boards are placed on a carrier, one positive and one negative. Since there are two boards on the carrier, after the ejector pin is welded, one of the boards does not need to have its rubber cap removed or has already been removed, so when the carrier is inverted on the cover plate 11, one of the boards needs to be avoided. The avoidance opening 15 allows the components on the PCB board in this area to extend into the box body 1 without interference.

[0035] In addition, when the carrier is inverted on the cover 11, it needs to be fixed and positioned. A positioning column 6 is provided on the cover 11. The positioning column 6 is divided into two groups, and there are four groups respectively, which are distributed in the four corner areas of the cover 11 to position the carrier so that the ejector pin of the PCB board can be just aligned with the first through hole 3.

[0036] like Figure 3-9As shown, the block 4 includes a connecting portion 41 and a resisting portion 42. The connecting portion 41 is connected to the pressure plate 2, and the resisting portion 42 is connected to the connecting portion 41. The resisting portion 42 can partially block two adjacent first through holes 3. The first through holes 3 are distributed in an array, and the connecting portion 41 is fixed between adjacent first through holes 3. The other end of the connecting portion 41 is connected to the resisting portion 42. The cross section of the resisting portion 42 is larger than the cross section of the connecting portion 41, so that the resisting portion 42 can simultaneously block two adjacent first through holes 3, with a compact structure and high utilization rate. The resisting portion 42 is used to abut against the end of the rubber cap. In each first through hole 3, the rubber cap is abutted by two resisting portions 42, so that the force is balanced when the rubber cap is removed, and the removal is smoother without causing damage to the ejector pin.

[0037] Furthermore, the pressing plate 2 is provided with a second through hole 5, and the connecting portion 41 is located beside the second through hole 5. The second through hole 5 is connected to the accommodating cavity 13, and the rubber cap can be inserted into the second through hole 5, and can enter the accommodating cavity 13 of the box body 1 when it is removed.

[0038] Furthermore, the number of the second through holes 5 is set to be several, and they are arranged in an array on the pressing plate 2, and at least one connecting portion 41 is arranged next to each second through hole 5. The number of the second through holes 5 is adapted to the first through holes 3, and the connecting portion 41 is arranged on the second through holes 5. In the initial position, the first through hole 3 and the second through hole 5 are partially overlapped and connected. At this time, the stopper 4 is partially blocked by the cover plate 11, and the caliber of the first through hole 3 is the largest. When the rubber cap is inserted and ready to be removed, the pressing plate 2 is moved horizontally, and the stopper 4 is moved to the position of the rubber cap, and then the pressing plate 2 is moved along the second direction, and the stopper 4 abuts against the rubber cap to remove it from the ejector pin, and the rubber cap enters the accommodating cavity 13 of the box body 1 through the second through hole 5 with gravity, and is collected and processed.

[0039] The pressing plate 2 is detachably connected to the box body 1. The pressing plate 2 can also be customized according to the specifications of different PCBs and the distribution of the plastic caps welded thereon, and can be disassembled and replaced according to actual needs later, with wide adaptability.

[0040] The implementation principle of a capping fixture in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: two PCB boards are fixed on the carrier, one facing up and the other facing down, one of which has a newly welded ejector pin, the PCB board is inverted on the cover plate 11, the carrier is positioned by the positioning column 6, the end with the rubber cap extends into the first through hole 3 and the second through hole 5, and the components on the other PCB board extend into the avoidance opening 15. At the initial position, the block 4 is located between the adjacent first through holes 3, and the pressing plate 2 begins to move horizontally downward, the block 4 partially blocks the first through hole 3 and is aligned with the end of the rubber cap, and then the pressing plate 2 is pressed downward in the vertical direction, the stopper 42 of the block 4 gradually approaches the end of the rubber cap and squeezes, the rubber cap is pulled off the ejector pin, and the detached rubber cap enters the accommodating cavity 13 of the box body 1 from the second through hole 5, is collected and processed, and then the pressing plate 2 is reset in the vertical direction under the elastic force of the spring, and then the pressing plate 2 is manually moved horizontally back to the initial position to prepare for the next capping action.

[0041] The above-mentioned implementation modes are only preferred implementation modes of the present invention, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by technicians in this field on the basis of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
