[0025] See also Figures 1 to 3The embodiment of the present application provides a welding clamping device, including a lower clamping plate 2 and an upper clamping plate 1. The upper clamping plate 1 includes a main body 11 and an upper clamping arm 12, the main body 11 is provided with a mounting hole, and the main body 11 is connected to the cylinder piston rod through a screw; one end of the upper clamping arm 12 is connected to the main body 11, and the other end of the upper clamping arm 12 is provided with an upper clamping portion 121, and the bottom height of the upper clamping portion 121 is lower than the height of the upper clamping arm 12; the lower clamping plate 2 includes a mounting block 21 and a lower clamping arm 22, the mounting block 21 is provided with a mounting hole, and the mounting block 21 is connected to the piston rod of another cylinder through a screw, one end of the lower clamping arm 22 is connected to the mounting block 21, and the other end of the lower clamping arm 22 is provided with a lower clamping portion 221, the height of the lower clamping portion 221 is higher than the height of the lower clamping arm 22, and the upper clamping portion 121 is aligned with the lower clamping portion 221.

[0026] When the FPC needs to be clamped, the FPC only needs to be placed between the upper clamping portion 121 and the lower clamping portion 221, and the upper clamping plate 1 is pressed downward by the cylinder to press the upper clamping portion 121 and the lower clamping portion 221 together to clamp the FPC. In addition, since the upper clamping portion 121 / lower clamping portion 221 is more prominent than the upper clamping arm 12 and the lower clamping arm 22, when clamping, the pressing point of the lower clamping plate 2 and the upper clamping plate 1 is the area where the upper clamping portion 121 and the lower clamping portion 221 are located, and the two are not in contact at other positions, so as to concentrate the pressing force on the upper clamping portion 121 / lower clamping portion 221 to clamp the FPC.

[0027] In one embodiment, a wave-shaped structure 1211 is provided on the clamping surface of the upper clamping portion 121 and the lower clamping portion 221.
