Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of soldering sheet packaging, and in particular to an adjustable flexible clamp and an automatic soldering sheet taping machine. Background Art

[0002] Automatic taping machines are particularly widely used in the electronics industry, for example, packaging electronic components such as SMDs, resistors, and capacitors. They are also widely used in the textile, plastics, and paper industries, where they can weave various materials into tapes for subsequent processing. With the continued development of the electronic component industry and increasing consumer demand for personalization, the market for automatic taping machines is expected to continue to expand. In the future, automatic taping machines will become more intelligent and automated, better able to adapt to changing production line requirements. Furthermore, with the continuous advancement of precision manufacturing technology, automatic taping machines will also achieve higher levels of accuracy, enabling them to meet more stringent production requirements.

[0003] Existing taping machines rely on clamps such as clamps to clamp the carrier tape's grooves for positioning, and rely on heated cutting tools to press down for packaging. The area requiring packaging is usually located at the tape's notch or its center. Because there's no support at the bottom of the tape's grooves, the heat-sealing mark in the center area isn't obvious, resulting in substandard packaging. Adding support to the bottom of the tape's grooves can improve this problem, but adding support blocks to the bottom of the carrier tape's grooves requires controlling the support height. If the support blocks are too high, the carrier tape will bulge upwards; if they are too low, the support force is insufficient and fails to provide support, which can also cause deformation of the carrier tape's heat seal and lead to unstable heat sealing. Due to the varying specifications of taped packaging products, the thickness of the tape's grooves can also vary, requiring the height of the support blocks to be adjusted and debugged along with the carrier tape, which often takes a significant amount of time. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this application is to provide an adjustable flexible clamp and an automatic welding sheet taping machine, aiming to solve the technical problem that the clamp on the existing taping machine cannot adaptively adjust the support height of the carrier tape.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application provides an adjustable flexible clamp, comprising two clamping blocks and two elastic support components, the two clamping blocks are used to clamp the convex groove of the carrier, the two elastic support components are respectively arranged on the first side walls of the two clamping blocks, and the elastic support components are used to contact the bottom surface of the convex groove of the carrier; wherein the first side wall is the side wall where the clamping blocks are close to each other.

[0006] Optionally, the elastic support assembly includes an elastic support member and a support pad. The elastic support member is arranged on the first side wall of the clamping block, and the elastic support member can be deformed in the vertical direction. The support pad is arranged on the top of the elastic support member, and the support pad is supported on the bottom surface of the convex groove of the carrier.

[0007] Optionally, the elastic support assembly further includes a limiting member provided on the first side wall of the clamping block, and the limiting member is used to limit the supporting pad to move up and down only along the first side wall of the clamping block.

[0008] Optionally, the limiting member includes at least two elastic pressing plates, and the second side wall of the clamping block is connected to at least one elastic pressing plate, and the elastic pressing plate is clamped at the side end of the supporting pad; wherein the second side wall is the side wall adjacent to the first side wall.

[0009] Optionally, the elastic pressing plate includes a connecting plate and a pressing plate, the connecting plate is detachably connected to the second side wall of the clamping block, the pressing plate is vertically connected to one side of the connecting plate, and a clamping groove for clamping the support pad is formed between the pressing plate and the first side wall of the clamping block, and the distance between the pressing plate and the first side wall of the clamping block is adjustable.

[0014] The beneficial effects that this application can achieve are as follows:

[0015] The present application includes two clamping blocks and two elastic support components. The two clamping blocks are used to clamp the convex groove of the carrier. The two elastic support components are respectively arranged on the first side walls of the two clamping blocks. The elastic support components are used to contact the bottom surface of the convex groove of the carrier; wherein the first side wall is the side wall where the clamping blocks are close to each other. The clamp structure of the present application can clamp the side walls of the convex groove of the carrier tape by two clamping blocks, thereby clamping the carrier tape, and at the same time, the elastic support component is supported on the bottom surface of the convex groove of the carrier tape. When the heat-sealing tool is pressed down, the convex groove of the carrier tape under pressure can be supported by the elastic support component. At the same time, due to the elastic effect of the elastic support component itself, each downward pressure will reach the limit position of the heat-sealing tool. Therefore, based on its elastic support, excessive heat-sealing pressure will not cause heat-sealing deformation of the carrier tape, and adaptive matching of support height can be achieved to form a flexible support force, thereby solving the problem of insufficient carrier support force or excessive support height during carrier heat sealing. Therefore, it can be adapted to carrier tapes of different sizes and specifications, saving installation and debugging time. The carrier tape heat-sealed by using this clamp as support has an appropriate width and depth, a stable tearing force of the film tape, and good consistency, which ensures good packaging during subsequent transportation. The tearing is stable when the user uses it, reducing the shaking of the carrier tape, and avoiding the soldering piece in the groove from being shaken away. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] Example

[0028] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3This embodiment provides an adjustable flexible clamp, including two clamping blocks 100 and two elastic support components 200. The two clamping blocks 100 are used to clamp the convex groove 310 of the carrier 300. The two elastic support components 200 are respectively arranged on the first side walls of the two clamping blocks 100. The elastic support components 200 are used to contact the bottom surface of the convex groove 310 of the carrier 300; wherein the first side wall is the side wall of the clamping blocks 100 that are close to each other.

[0029] In this embodiment, the two clamping blocks 100 can clamp the side walls of the convex groove 310 of the carrier tape 300, thereby clamping the carrier tape 300. At the same time, the elastic support component 200 is supported on the bottom surface of the convex groove 310 of the carrier tape 300. When the heat sealing tool is pressed down, the convex groove 310 of the carrier tape 300 under pressure can be supported by the elastic support component 200. At the same time, due to the elastic effect of the elastic support component 200 itself, each downward pressure will reach the limit position of the heat sealing tool. Therefore, based on its elastic support, excessive heat sealing pressure will not cause the carrier tape 300 to 00 heat-sealing deformation can realize adaptive matching of support height and form flexible supporting force, thereby solving the problem of insufficient support force or excessive support height of carrier tape 300 during heat-sealing of carrier tape 300. Therefore, it can adapt to carrier tape 300 of different sizes and specifications, saving installation and debugging time. The carrier tape 300 heat-sealed with this clamp has appropriate width and depth, stable tearing force of the film tape and good consistency, which ensures good packaging in the subsequent transportation process. The tearing is stable when the user uses it, reducing the vibration of carrier tape 300, avoiding the welding piece in the groove from being shaken away.

[0030] As an optional embodiment, the elastic support assembly 200 includes an elastic support member 210 and a support pad 220. The elastic support member 210 is arranged on the first side wall of the clamping block 100, and the elastic support member 210 can be deformed in the vertical direction. The support pad 220 is arranged on the top of the elastic support member 210, and the support pad 220 is supported on the bottom surface of the convex groove 310 of the carrier 300.

[0031] In this embodiment, the support pad 220 plays a supporting role for the carrier 300 to ensure that the convex groove 310 of the carrier 300 is stably supported. At the same time, the elastic support member 210 is used as a movable member. When it is squeezed and deformed, the support height of the support pad 220 can be adaptively adjusted, which ensures the stability of the support and has the function of automatically adjusting the support height of the carrier 300. It can effectively avoid the problems of carrier heat sealing deformation, insufficient heat sealing, and intermittent and inconsistent heat sealing of the carrier 300 due to fluctuations in heat sealing pressure and differences in thickness of the carrier 300, thereby improving product quality.

[0032] As an optional embodiment, the elastic support member 210 is a wave spring, which is also called a wave spring. It is an elastic element with several peaks and valleys on a thin metal ring, so that it can adapt to the different pressure changes caused by the thickness difference of the carrier 300. It has strong adaptability and meets the use requirements.

[0033] It should be noted that the support height of the support pad 220 is adjusted by the wave spring. When the wave spring is relaxed, the maximum height of the support pad 220 is always lower than the surface of the clamping block 100. Therefore, the support pad 220 only supports the bottom surface of the groove 310 of the carrier tape 300.

[0034] As an optional embodiment, the elastic support assembly 200 further includes a limiter disposed on the first side wall of the clamping block 100 , and the limiter is used to limit the support pad 220 to move up and down only along the first side wall of the clamping block 100 .

[0035] In this embodiment, the support pad 220 is restricted by a limiter to move up and down only along the first side wall of the clamping block 100. The support pad 220 has only one displacement direction, i.e., up and down movement, so that the support pad 220 will not deviate or tilt left and right when it moves downward under pressure, thereby ensuring the stability of the support.

[0036] As an optional embodiment, the limiting member includes at least two elastic pressing plates 230, and the second side wall of the clamping block 100 is connected to at least one elastic pressing plate 230, and the elastic pressing plate 230 is clamped at the side end of the support pad 220; wherein the second side wall is a side wall adjacent to the first side wall.

[0037] In this embodiment, two elastic pressing plates 230 are used to clamp the support pad 220 from both sides, thereby ensuring that the support pad 220 can always fit the first side wall of the clamping block 100. When the support pad 220 moves downward under pressure, the elastic pressing plate 230 plays a guiding role, allowing it to move downward stably to meet the limit requirements.

[0038] As an optional embodiment, the elastic pressing piece 230 includes a connecting piece 231 and a pressing piece 232. The connecting piece 231 is detachably connected to the second side wall of the clamping block 100, and the pressing piece 232 is vertically connected to one side of the connecting piece 231. The pressing piece 232 and the first side wall of the clamping block 100 form a clamping groove for clamping the support pad 220, and the distance between the pressing piece 232 and the first side wall of the clamping block 100 is adjustable.

[0039] In this embodiment, the elastic pressing piece 230 is connected to the second side wall of the clamping block 100 through the connecting piece 231, and at the same time, the pressing piece 232 and the first side wall of the clamping block 100 form a clamping groove for clamping the support pad 220, and the connecting piece 231 is detachably connected to the second side wall of the clamping block 100, so the distance between the pressing piece 232 and the first side wall of the clamping block 100 can be adjusted, so that it is suitable for clamping support pads 220 of different thicknesses, so as to be suitable for supporting carriers 300 of different specifications, thereby improving versatility.

[0040] It should be noted that a waist-shaped groove or multiple positioning holes can be opened on the second side wall of the clamping block 100, and a mounting hole adapted to the waist-shaped groove or positioning hole is opened on the connecting piece 231. By installing fasteners such as screws through the mounting holes and the waist-shaped grooves or positioning holes at corresponding positions, a detachable connection is achieved, so that the connecting piece 231 can be installed at different positions of the second side wall of the clamping block 100, and the distance between the pressing piece 232 and the first side wall of the clamping block 100 can be adjusted.

[0041] As an optional embodiment, a step groove 110 is opened at the bottom of the clamping block 100, and the elastic support member 210 is arranged on the step groove 110. The step groove 110 can provide support for the bottom of the elastic support member 210.

[0042] As an optional embodiment, both clamping blocks 100 are provided with waist-shaped holes 120 , the length direction of the waist-shaped holes 120 is the direction in which the two clamping blocks 100 approach each other, and the waist-shaped holes 120 are used to install fasteners.

[0043] In this embodiment, since the clamping blocks 100 are mounted on a work platform of a braiding machine (not shown), the work platform is provided with fixing holes adapted to the waist-shaped holes 120. After the two clamping blocks 100 clamp the protruding grooves 310 of the carrier tape 300, fasteners are passed through the waist-shaped holes 120 and the fixing holes to secure the clamping blocks 100. This allows for clamping of protruding grooves 310 of varying widths, further enhancing versatility. It should be noted that the fasteners herein may be locking members such as bolts.
