Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0025] Example: Reference Figure 1-8 The SMT detection device for a PCB circuit board shown in the figure includes a detection machine body 1, a mobile frame 2, and a placement frame 3. The mobile frame 2 is slidably connected in the detection channel of the detection machine body 1. The mobile frame 2 is controlled to run in the detection channel by a moving component. The mobile frame 2 is moved to under the detection module of the detection machine body 1. In order to save the labor intensity of the staff, the placement frame 3 is rotatably connected to the mobile frame 2. The placement frame 3 cooperates with the limiting mechanism to limit the installation of the circuit board, so that under the drive of the angle positioning mechanism, after the placement frame 3 rotates 180 degrees, the circuit board will not fall off. The steering motor 10 used for the rotation angle is arranged in the detection machine body 1, and the angle positioning mechanism is connected to the steering motor 10.

[0026] The overall structure of the placement frame 3 is a return frame (such as Figure 5 ), a guiding ramp 31 is provided at the right end of the placement frame 3 to assist the staff in placing the circuit board. A limiting mechanism is provided on the inner wall of the placement frame 3. The limiting block 4 of the limiting mechanism is fixed on the inner wall of the placement frame 3. The bottom surface of each group of limiting blocks 4 is provided with a clamping groove 41 for placing a spring 6. The free end of the spring 6 is connected to the clamping block 5. In order to facilitate the insertion of the circuit board and limit it, the clamping block 5 is arc-shaped and made of rubber. Therefore, during use, the wear of the circuit board is reduced.

[0027] In order to assist in taking the circuit board, a guide wheel is hinged on the protrusion of each set of placement frames 3. The guide wheel is made of rubber and cooperates with the pressing block 5 to assist in placing and taking the circuit board when in use.

By controlling the rotation angle of the steering motor 10, the opening direction of the rectangular groove can still be directed toward the slide groove after use, so that the steering block 91 can be docked with the rectangular groove, and both ends of the rectangular groove are transparent, thereby achieving the purpose of rotating the placement frame 3.

[0029] A steering member 7 is provided on the end face of the movable frame 2, and a worm 9 is rotatably connected to its internal space. A coaxial worm wheel 8 is provided on each set of placement frames 3, and the worm wheel 8 and the worm 9 are meshed with each other. Therefore, driven by the steering motor 10, the worm 9 rotates and drives the worm wheel 8 to rotate 180°, and the angle positioning is achieved through the self-locking property of the worm wheel 8 and the worm 9.

[0030] The practical working principle of the present invention is as follows: the circuit board is inserted into the guide ramp 31 of the placement frame 3, and the guiding installation of the circuit board is completed through the guide wheel and the limit mechanism. The clamping block 5 is assisted by the spring 6 in the limit block 4 to realize the positioning of the circuit. Then, driven by the moving component in the detection machine body 1, the moving frame 2 is moved in the detection channel, and then it is detected. After the detection is completed, the moving frame 2 is pushed outward, and then the steering block 91 is matched with the rectangular groove at the end of the connecting piece 11 to complete the docking. Then, driven by the steering motor 10, the worm 9 is driven to rotate in the steering piece 7, and the rotating worm 9 drives the worm wheel 8 to rotate to realize steering, saving the manual flipping time of the staff, and then the detection is continued under the drive of the moving component.
