[0024] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0025] Embodiment

[0026] As Figure 1 、 2 、Figure 3 shows, including a placement base plate 10, and at least two clamping components 20 on the top of the placement base plate 10. The clamping component 20 includes a moving support pillar 21 on the top of the placement base plate 10, a first fixture 22 on the inner wall top of the moving support pillar 21, and a second fixture 23 that is hinged and located on the inner wall top of the moving support pillar 21.

[0027] The second fixture 23 has the same structure as the first fixture 22. The second fixture 23 and the first fixture 22 are arranged at an angle and are respectively located in two sector-shaped grooves 24 embedded in the inner wall top of the moving support pillar 21.

[0028] It should be noted that in this embodiment, during the process of reducing the range of the clamping component 20 by adjusting the screw block, two return springs 241 on the side walls of the first fixture 22 and the second fixture 23 are compressed to adjust the angle between the first fixture 22 and the second fixture 23 in the sector-shaped groove 24. At the same time, the return springs 241 react on the first fixture 22 and the second fixture 23, so that the first fixture 22 and the second fixture 23 can better clamp the circuit board, increasing the clamping stability.

[0029] Furthermore, the side wall of the circuit board is embedded in the inner wall of the limit groove 224. One clamping component 20 has two workpiece grippers 223, and the two workpiece grippers 223 limit the four side walls of the circuit board. When the clamped circuit board is rectangular, the circuit board can be clamped by continuously reducing the clamping range.

[0030] As Figure 2 、 5, as shown in Figures 6, it includes a placement base plate 10, and at least two clamping components 20 on the top of the placement base plate 10. The clamping component 20 includes a moving pillar 21 on the top of the placement base plate 10, a first clamp 22 at the top inner wall of the moving pillar 21, a second clamp 23 that is hinged and located at the top inner wall of the moving pillar 21, and the bottom of the workpiece gripper 223 is slidably connected to the top of the placement block 221 and the top of the first clamp 22; a limiting groove 224 is embedded in the side wall of the workpiece gripper 223;

[0031] One end of the first clamp 22 is hingedly arranged at the top inner wall of the moving pillar 21. An arrangement block 221 is provided at the other end of the first clamp 22. An adjusting motor 222 is arranged inside the arrangement block 221, and a workpiece gripper 223 is provided at the top execution end of the adjusting motor 222;

[0032] It should be noted that in this embodiment, when the clamped circuit board is not a regular shape, by controlling the adjusting motor 222 inside the arrangement block 221, the execution end of the adjusting motor 222 drives the workpiece gripper 223 to rotate. According to the side wall angle of the special-shaped circuit board, the angle of the workpiece gripper 223 at the corresponding position is adjusted accordingly, so that the limiting groove 224 on the side wall of the workpiece gripper 223 can better clamp and support the circuit board.

[0033] Similarly, the four workpiece grippers 223 can all be adjusted to better adapt to and fit the side wall of the circuit board, achieving the best clamping effect.

[0034] Such as Figure 1 、 3 , as shown in Figures 4, it includes a placement base plate 10, and at least two clamping components 20 on the top of the placement base plate 10, and two sector-shaped grooves 24 embedded in the top inner wall of the moving pillar 21; a return spring 241 is arranged on one side of the sector-shaped groove 24 and embedded in the top inner wall of the moving pillar 21; one end of the two return springs 241 is on the inner wall of the moving pillar 21, and the other ends are respectively on the side walls of the first clamp 22 and the second clamp 23;

[0035] A horizontal limiting groove 11 is arranged on one side of the top of the placement base plate 10, and a vertical limiting groove 12 is arranged at one end of the top of the placement base plate 10. The bottom of the moving pillar 21 is slidably connected to the top of the placement base plate 10; the bottom of the moving pillar 21 is driven by the screw block connection at the bottom of the placement base plate 10.

[0036] It should be noted that in this embodiment, according to the approximate size of the circuit board to be processed, the moving pillar 21 is driven to move through the screw block connection at the bottom of the placement base plate 10, so as to drive the two clamping components 20 to approach each other. The horizontal limiting groove 11 and the vertical limiting groove 12 on the top of the placement base plate 10 limit the moving pillar 21 horizontally and vertically. By continuously approaching the two clamping components 20, the clamping area is reduced, and the side wall of the circuit board is clamped.

[0037] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows:

[0038] First, according to the approximate size of the circuit board to be processed on behalf of others, the screw block connection at the bottom of the placement base plate 10 drives the moving support column 21 to move, so as to drive the two clamping components 20 to approach each other. The horizontal limiting groove 11 and the vertical limiting groove 12 at the top of the placement base plate 10 limit the horizontal and vertical directions of the moving support column 21. By continuously approaching the two clamping components 20, the clamping area is reduced, and the side wall of the circuit board is clamped.

[0039] Meanwhile, during the process of the range reduction, the two reset springs 241 on the side walls of the first clamp 22 and the second clamp 23 are compressed to adjust the included angle between the first clamp 22 and the second clamp 23 in the sector-shaped groove 24. At the same time, the reset springs 241 act on the first clamp 22 and the second clamp 23 with a reaction force, so that the first clamp 22 and the second clamp 23 can better clamp the circuit board, increasing the clamping stability.

[0040] Further, the side wall of the circuit board is embedded in the inner wall of the limiting groove 224. One clamping component 20 has two workpiece grippers 223, and the two workpiece grippers 223 limit the four side walls of the circuit board. When the circuit board to be clamped is rectangular, the circuit board can be clamped by continuously reducing the clamping range.

[0041] When the circuit board to be clamped is not a regular shape, by controlling the adjustment motor 222 on the inner wall of the placement circular block 221, the execution end of the adjustment motor 222 drives the workpiece gripper 223 to rotate. According to the side wall angle of the special-shaped circuit board, the angle of the workpiece gripper 223 at the corresponding position is adjusted correspondingly, so that the limiting groove 224 on the side wall of the workpiece gripper 223 can better clamp and support the circuit board.

[0042] Similarly, the four workpiece grippers 223 can all be adjusted to better adapt to and fit the side wall of the circuit board, achieving the best clamping effect.

[0043] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical idea of the present utility model, and the protection scope of the present utility model cannot be limited thereby. Any modification made on the basis of the technical solution according to the technical idea proposed by the present utility model falls within the protection scope of the present utility model.
