[0033] See also Figures 2 to 3 The PCB board flipping mechanism also includes a placement plate 2, a semiconductor refrigeration plate, a cooling component and a heat dissipation component; wherein the placement plate 2 is installed on two outer shells 11 and placed in a conveying channel 12, the placement plate 2 is located directly above the conveyor belt 13, and a plurality of accommodating channels are opened on the placement plate 2. The semiconductor refrigeration plate is arranged in the accommodating channel of the placement plate 2 so that the cold end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate faces the conveyor belt 13, and the hot end faces the side away from the conveyor belt 13.

[0034] See also Figure 3 In one embodiment, the cooling assembly configured on the bottom surface of the storage plate 2 can be a cooling fin 31 and a cooling fan 32. The cooling fin 31 is installed on the lower surface of the storage plate 2 and contacts the cold end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate. The cooling fan 32 is installed at the bottom end of the cooling fin 31. The cooling fan 32 can transport the cold source generated by the semiconductor refrigeration plate to the PCB board on the conveyor belt 13 in the form of cold air, so as to achieve rapid heat exchange and cooling of the PCB board.

[0035] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the heat dissipation component configured on the bottom surface of the storage plate 2 can be a heat dissipation fin 41 and a heat dissipation fan 42, wherein the heat dissipation fin 41 is installed on the top surface of the storage plate 2 and connected to the hot end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate, and the heat dissipation fan 42 is installed on the top of the heat dissipation fin 41.

[0036] Embodiment 2:

[0037] As the second embodiment of the present utility model, the components identical or corresponding to those in the first embodiment are marked with the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment, and only the differences between the second embodiment and the first embodiment are described below.

[0038] The second embodiment differs from the first embodiment only in that the structure of the cooling component is different.

[0039] See also Figure 4-Figure 6In the second embodiment, the cooling components are an air intake grille 33 and an air intake fan 34, wherein the air intake grille 33 is arranged on the outer shell 11 of the flap structure 1, the air intake grille 33 is located in the conveying channel 12 and is placed directly below the storage plate 2, the top of the air intake grille 33 is not connected to the bottom surface of the storage plate 2, so that an air flow channel 5 for gas flow is formed between the air intake grille 33 and the storage plate 2, and the air intake fan 34 is installed on the side of the storage plate 2, that is, the air intake fan 34 is above the conveying inlet of the conveyor belt 13 on the storage plate 2, and the air intake fan 34 is directly opposite to the air flow channel 5 formed between the air intake grille 33 and the storage plate 2.

[0040] When cooling the PCB board on the conveyor belt 13, the air intake fan 34 guides the external air to the air flow channel 5. The air flow in the air flow channel 5 is cooled by the heat exchange at the cold end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate to form cold air. The cold air flows toward the PCB board on the conveyor belt 13 through the air intake grille 33, and then the cold air exchanges heat with the PCB board, thereby achieving efficient heat exchange of the PCB board and improving the heat exchange efficiency of the PCB board of the utility model.

[0041] In a specific embodiment, the air intake grille 33 is composed of a first symmetrical portion 331, a second symmetrical portion 332 and a third symmetrical portion 333 in an "eight" shape from outside to inside. In other possible embodiments, the air intake grille 33 also has a fourth symmetrical portion and a fifth symmetrical portion in an "eight" structure.

[0042] See also Figure 5 Three grilles in an "eight" symmetrical structure form a complete air intake grille 33, so that the airflow entering the air intake grille 33 can be guided along a certain path, thereby accelerating the flow rate of the airflow between the PCB board and the air intake grille 33, and then accelerating the cooling efficiency of the PCB board.

[0043] In a specific embodiment, the first symmetrical portion 331 extends from the top of the side away from the air intake fan 34 to the bottom surface of the storage plate 2. Figure 2 Through this arrangement, one side of the air flow channel 5 can be blocked, reducing the probability that the air flow stirred by the air intake fan 34 does not blow toward the PCB board, thereby ensuring the cooling effect of the utility model on the PCB board on the conveyor belt 13.

[0044] In a specific embodiment, the air intake grille 33 is made of any one of pure copper, pure aluminum, copper alloy or aluminum alloy.

[0045] In a specific implementation, an air outlet 6 is formed through the bottom end of the first symmetrical portion 331 .

[0046] See also Figure 4 , Figure 6, the air outlet 6 is arranged toward the air intake fan 34. Through this arrangement, the airflow between the first symmetrical portion 331 and the second symmetrical portion 332 can be partially blown to the air intake fan 34, and the temperature of the airflow blown between the first symmetrical portion 331 and the second symmetrical portion 332 is lower than the temperature of the airflow driven by the air intake fan 34. Through the above arrangement, heat exchange of the airflow driven by the air intake fan 34 can be achieved, the cooling power of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet can be reduced, energy consumption can be saved, and the stability of the airflow temperature in the airflow channel 5 can be guaranteed.

[0047] In a specific embodiment, a polytetrafluoroethylene coating is sprayed on the surface of the air intake grille 33. It should be noted that polytetrafluoroethylene has a certain anti-corrosion effect, reduces the probability of rust on the air intake grille 33, and prolongs the service life of the PCB board flipping machine of the present application.

[0048] The above implementation modes are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the utility model, and their purpose is to allow people familiar with this technology to understand the content of the utility model and implement it. It cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
