Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of PCB board production equipment, in particular to an edge grinding machine for PCB boards. Background Art
[0002] Edge grinding is a key step in the PCB manufacturing process, primarily used to remove burrs from the edges of the PCB to ensure dimensional accuracy and appearance quality. Traditional edge grinding machines typically require manual flipping of the PCB to perform edge grinding on all four sides. In response to this, Chinese utility model patent CN205600459U discloses a fully automatic edge grinding machine for PCB edge grinding. The machine comprises four edge grinding units and a transfer unit positioned between adjacent units. The transfer unit is capable of flipping and transferring the PCB, thereby automating the edge grinding process.
[0003] However, the above method requires the installation of four edge grinding units with the same structure, so that the edge grinding process occupies a large amount of processing space, and the equipment cost of the four edge grinding units is relatively high. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model provides an edge grinding machine for a PCB board, so as to solve the problem in the prior art that a plurality of edge grinding units with the same structure need to occupy a large amount of processing space.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is to provide an edge grinding machine for PCB boards, wherein the edge grinding machine for PCB boards includes: a frame, the frame includes a workbench, wherein the workbench is provided with a card plate on one side along a first direction, and the card plates are arranged at intervals along a second direction to form an accommodating space.
[0006] A grinding mechanism, the grinding mechanism including a grinding wheel and a fixed frame located on the workbench, wherein the grinding wheel passes through the fixed frame along the second direction; a flipping mechanism, the flipping mechanism is located in the accommodating space and is respectively engaged with the clamping plates, wherein the flipping mechanism includes a rotating member and a limiting member, the limiting member is arranged on the inner side of the rotating member along the second direction and is used to clamp the PCB board.
[0007] The technical solution provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:
[0008] By arranging a clamping plate on one side of the workbench and forming an accommodating space for placing the flipping mechanism, when the external transmission device transfers the PCB board to the accommodating space, the limiting member of the flipping device can engage with the PCB board under the transmission of the external transmission device and limit the PCB board in the vertical direction, thereby enabling the edge of the PCB board to be polished when the grinding wheel rotates clockwise or counterclockwise.
[0009] When one side of the PCB is polished flat by the grinding wheel, the rotating member of the flipping mechanism flips the limit member, thereby flipping the PCB so that the other side of the PCB can also contact the grinding wheel and be polished.
[0010] In addition, the above structure can be used to transform the existing edge grinding machine so that it can match the turning device, thereby effectively saving the machine tool cost.
[0011] In some embodiments, the flipping mechanism further includes a telescopic guide rail extending along the second direction, wherein the rotating member cooperates with the telescopic guide rail so that the rotating member can be displaced along the second direction.
[0012] With the above technical solution, the flipping mechanism is further provided with a telescopic guide rail, so that the rotating member can be displaced within the accommodating space, thereby enabling the limiting member to match PCB boards of different specifications and sizes for flipping.
[0013] In some embodiments, the workbench is further provided with a dust box, which is located on a side of the fixing frame away from the grinding wheel along the third direction, wherein the length of the dust box along the second direction is greater than that of the grinding wheel.
[0014] With the above technical solution, since a large amount of dust is generated during the polishing process of the PCB board, which is easily accumulated on the workbench, a dust collection box is added to collect the dust during the polishing process, which can effectively ensure the cleanliness of the working area.
[0015] In some embodiments, projections of the dust collecting box along the first direction and the second direction are trapezoidal.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the dust collecting box has a large opening on the side facing the grinding wheel and a small opening on the side away from the grinding wheel, thereby realizing dust collection by the dust collecting box.
[0017] In some embodiments, the frame is further provided with an exhaust duct, which extends along the first direction to the dust box and is in communication with the dust box.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, an exhaust pipe is arranged to be connected to the dust collecting box, so that the dust collecting box constitutes a dust suction device to continuously absorb the dust around the workbench, thereby effectively improving the cleaning effect.
[0019] In some embodiments, the frame further includes a lifting mechanism, which includes a plurality of lifting columns extending along a third direction, the lifting columns being respectively connected to both ends of the grinding wheel and used to drive the grinding wheel to move along the third direction.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, a lifting mechanism is added below the frame, so that the grinding wheel can be displaced along the third direction, thereby adjusting the height of the edge grinding.
[0021] In some embodiments, the fixing frame is further provided with a plurality of dial indicators, which are arranged at intervals along the second direction and are located above the grinding wheel along the third direction.
[0022] Using the above technical solution, the dial indicator (micrometer) is a precision measuring tool. Setting the dial indicator on both sides of the grinding wheel can effectively measure the height difference between the two ends of the grinding wheel, thereby calibrating the grinding accuracy of the grinding wheel.
[0023] In some embodiments, the edge grinding machine is further provided with a positioning assembly, which includes a plurality of positioning pins located on the workbench and a magnetic positioning pin located on the flipping mechanism.
[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the positioning component can effectively ensure the precise position of the PCB board during the grinding process, thereby improving the edge grinding accuracy of the PCB board.
[0025] In some embodiments, the workbench is further provided with a sensor system including a rotary encoder and a position sensor, and the rotary encoder and the position sensor are located in the flipping mechanism.
[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, in order to avoid the situation where there is a gap between the flipped PCB board and the grinding wheel, resulting in no edge grinding or uneven edge grinding, the addition of an in-position sensor and a rotary encoder can effectively determine the rotation angle of the rotating shaft and the edge grinding position of the PCB board.
[0027] In some embodiments, a plurality of pulleys are further provided at the bottom of the frame along the third direction.
[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, the frame can be effectively moved and positioned by adding pulleys, so that it can be matched with an external transmission device to realize an automated edging process. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
