[0032] In the description of this application, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, and connecting should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0033] At present, the storage boxes commonly used for storing and transporting circuit boards are all of a single specification. Producing circuit board storage boxes of different sizes for circuit boards of different sizes will undoubtedly increase production costs. At the same time, the circuit board storage boxes are not always full of circuit boards. Therefore, when the number of circuit boards to be transported is too small, the range of movement of the circuit boards in the storage box will be too large, and the circuit boards will inevitably be damaged by collision during transportation.

[0034] Based on this, the present application proposes a circuit board storage box. By setting a first protrusion 101 and a second protrusion 111, and also setting an isolation plate 150 to cooperate with the first protrusion 101 and the second protrusion, the space inside the circuit board storage box can be differentiated, thereby enabling the same circuit board storage box to store circuit boards of different sizes at the same time, and also to limit the circuit boards to prevent them from moving over a large range.

[0035] The following references Figure 1 and Figure 4 A circuit board storage box according to an embodiment of the present application is described.

[0036] It can be understood that: the circuit board storage box of the embodiment of the present application includes: a box body and an isolation plate 150, the box body includes a first side wall 100 and a second side wall 110, the first side wall 100 and the second side wall 110 are relative and parallel, the first side wall 100 is provided with a plurality of first protrusions 101, the second side wall 110 is provided with a plurality of second protrusions 111, the plurality of first protrusions 101 are arranged and distributed along the length direction of the first side wall 100, and a gap is formed between two adjacent first protrusions 101, the second protrusions 111 correspond to the first protrusions 101 one by one, and the first protrusions 101 and the corresponding second protrusions 111 are symmetrically distributed along the middle parallel line of the first side wall 100 and the second side wall 110; one end of the isolation plate 150 is provided in the gap, and the other end is provided between the corresponding two second protrusions 111, and the isolation plate 150 is used to partition the box body.

[0037] The beneficial effects of the circuit board storage box of the embodiment of the present application can be manifested as follows: by setting the first protrusion 101, the second protrusion 111 and the isolation plate 150, the isolation plate 150 can partition the space inside the circuit board storage box, and at the same time limit the circuit board to avoid serious collision of the circuit board during transportation. The provision of multiple first protrusions 101 and multiple second protrusions 111 can be used to partition according to the size of the circuit board, so as to facilitate the storage of the circuit board. Therefore, the circuit board storage box of the embodiment of the present application can be used for circuit boards of different sizes, without the need to produce the corresponding circuit board storage box according to the size of the circuit board, thereby reducing the production cost.

[0038] For example, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 1In this embodiment, the first side wall 100 and the second side wall 110 are opposite surfaces, and the first side wall 100 is parallel to the second side wall 110. The first side wall 100 is provided with a plurality of rectangular first protrusions 101, and the second side wall 110 is also provided with a plurality of rectangular second protrusions 111. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the plurality of first protrusions 101 and the plurality of second protrusions 111. The first protrusions 101 and the second protrusions 111 are symmetrically distributed along the parallel line in the middle of the first side wall 100 and the second side wall 110. By providing an isolation plate 150, one end of the isolation plate 150 can be arbitrarily engaged in the gap between any two adjacent first protrusions 101, while the other end can be engaged in the gap between the corresponding second protrusions 111. In this way, the isolation plate 150 can be used to differentiate the areas of the circuit board storage box. There can be multiple isolation plates 150, so the circuit board storage box can be divided into different areas suitable for storing circuit boards of different sizes, thereby reducing production costs. The coordinated use of the first protrusion 101, the second protrusion 111 and the isolation plate 150 also limits the position of the circuit board in the circuit board storage box, avoiding damage to the circuit board during transportation.

[0039] It can be understood that: the first side wall 100 is also provided with a first pad, which is arranged below the first protrusion 101, and the second side wall 110 is also provided with a second pad, which is arranged below the second protrusion 111. Both ends of the isolation plate 150 are stepped, one end of the isolation plate 150 is snap-connected to the gap and abuts against the first pad, and the other end is snap-connected between the corresponding two second protrusions 111 and abuts against the second pad.

[0040] For example, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 4In this embodiment, a first pad is further provided on the side of the first side wall 100 near the second side wall 110. The first pad is positioned below and in contact with the first protrusion 101. The side of the first pad away from the second side wall 110 is recessed. This saves material for manufacturing the circuit board storage box, thereby reducing production costs and reducing the weight of the circuit board storage box, making it easier to transport. Similarly, a second pad is provided on the side of the second side wall 110 near the first side wall 100. The second pad is positioned below and in contact with the second protrusion 111. The side of the second pad away from the first side wall 100 is also recessed. The provision of the first and second pads reduces the required lengths of the first and second protrusions 101, 111, and the area required for the isolation plate 150 is also reduced, thereby reducing production costs without affecting the partitioning effect of the isolation plate 150. The two ends of the isolation plate 150 are set to be stepped to facilitate cooperation with the first protrusion 101, the first pad, the second protrusion 111 and the second pad. The longer step at one end of the isolation plate 150 is engaged and connected with the two adjacent first protrusions 101, and the shorter step is against the first pad. The longer step at the other end of the isolation plate 150 is engaged and connected with the corresponding two adjacent second protrusions 111, and the shorter step is against the second pad, thereby realizing the partitioning effect of the isolation plate 150.

[0041] It can be understood that the box body also includes a third side wall 120 and a fourth side wall 130, the third side wall 120 and the fourth side wall 130 are opposite and parallel, the third side wall 120 is adjacent to the first side wall 100 and the second side wall 110, the fourth side wall 130 is adjacent to the first side wall 100 and the second side wall 110, and a first groove 121 is provided on the side of the third side wall 120 away from the fourth side wall 130, and a second groove 131 is provided on the side of the fourth side wall 130 away from the third side wall 120.

[0042] For example, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 3In this embodiment, the third sidewall 120 and the fourth sidewall 130 are also parallel to each other. The third sidewall 120 is adjacent to and in contact with the first sidewall 100 and the second sidewall 110, and the fourth sidewall 130 is also adjacent to and in contact with the first sidewall 100 and the second sidewall 110. A first groove 121 is defined at the top of the third sidewall 120 on the side away from the fourth sidewall 130. The first groove 121 opens downward. Similarly, a second groove 131 is defined at the top of the fourth sidewall 130 on the side away from the third sidewall 120. The second groove 131 also opens downward. The provision of the first and second grooves 121, 131 facilitates manual or mechanical transport of the circuit board storage box. First brackets 122 are defined at both ends of the first groove 121, and second brackets 132 are defined at both ends of the second groove 131. The first and second brackets 122, 132 serve as reinforcing ribs to secure the first and second grooves 121, 131.

[0043] It can be understood that the first side wall 100, the second side wall 110, the third side wall 120 and the fourth side wall 130 are all provided with sensing holes 160, the sensing holes 160 of the first side wall 100 are opposite to the sensing holes 160 of the second side wall 110, and the sensing holes 160 of the third side wall 120 are opposite to the sensing holes 160 of the fourth side wall 130.

[0044] For example, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 2In this embodiment, the first side wall 100, the second side wall 110, the third side wall 120 and the fourth side wall 130 are each provided with two sensing holes 160, and the sensing hole 160 of the first side wall 100 corresponds to the sensing hole 160 of the second side wall 110. The sensing holes 160 of the first side wall 100 and the second side wall 110 divide the first protrusion 101 and the second protrusion 111 into three parts respectively, so as to ensure the normal realization of the function of the sensing hole 160, and the sensing hole 160 of the third side wall 120 corresponds to the sensing hole 160 of the fourth side wall 130. The arrangement of multiple sensing holes 160 makes it easy for the sensing holes 160 to achieve their function no matter how the isolation plate 150 partitions the circuit board storage box. The setting of the sensing hole 160 is used to observe whether the stacked circuit boards are full. For example, in an automated circuit board loading device, the sensing laser emitter radiates laser light through the sensing hole 160 on the first side wall 100 to the corresponding sensing hole 160 on the second side wall 110, and the sensing laser receiver receives the laser light passing through the sensing hole 160 on the second side wall 110. The sensing laser receiver and the sensing laser emitter are electrically connected to the terminal control system. The terminal control system is used to adjust the height of the sensing laser emitter and the sensing laser receiver. The mechanical clamping arm continuously stores the circuit boards into the circuit board storage box. When the height of the circuit board stack reaches a certain level, the circuit board will block the sensing laser receiver from receiving the laser signal from the sensing laser emitter. At this time, the mechanical clamping arm will stop moving, and the terminal controller drives the conveyor belt to transfer the full circuit board storage box to the next process (such as processing equipment, etc.).

[0045] It can be understood that the box body also includes a bottom plate 140, and the bottom plate 140, the first side wall 100, the second side wall 110, the third side wall 120 and the fourth side wall 130 together form the box body, and the bottom plate 140, the first side wall 100, the second side wall 110, the third side wall 120, the fourth side wall 130, the first protrusion 101 and the second protrusion 111 are an integrated part.

[0046] For example, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 In this embodiment, the one-piece structural design of the first side wall 100, the second side wall 110, the third side wall 120, the fourth side wall 130 and the bottom plate 140 is conducive to improving the production efficiency of the product, while also improving the tightness of the structure. The integrated structure does not require connectors to connect the joints, which to a certain extent reduces the total weight of the circuit board storage box and improves its loading and transportation efficiency. At the same time, the material of the integrated circuit board storage box is plastic, which makes it lighter in terms of overall weight.

[0047] It is understandable that the bottom plate 140 is further provided with a vent hole 141 , and the vent hole 141 is used to maintain the circulation of gas inside and outside the box body.

[0048] For example, in some embodiments, referring to the figure, in this embodiment, the bottom plate 140 is provided with ventilation holes 141 on both sides along the length direction of the first side wall 100. The ventilation holes 141 are long strip-shaped holes, which are used to ensure the flow of gas inside and outside the circuit board storage box to prevent the circuit boards in the circuit board storage box from getting damp.

[0049] It is understandable that a raised frame 142 is provided on a side of the bottom away from the first protrusion 101 , and the raised frame 142 is provided around the bottom plate 140 .

[0050] For example, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 In this embodiment, the raising frame 142 is a reinforcing rib structure. The raising frame 142 is arranged around the bottom and connected to each other. The shape surrounded by the raising frame 142 is a rectangle. The setting of the raising frame 142 is convenient for raising the horizontal height of the bottom plate 140 to prevent the loaded circuit boards from contacting the conveyor belt through the vents 141 during transportation, thereby causing unnecessary wear on the circuit boards.

[0051] It is understandable that a reinforcement frame 143 is provided on a side of the bottom plate 140 away from the first protrusion 101 .

[0052] For example, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 In this embodiment, the reinforcement frame 143 is a reinforcing rib structure. The reinforcement frame 143 is arranged on the side of the bottom plate 140 away from the first protrusion 101. The reinforcement frame 143 is arranged on the part of the bottom plate 140 between the two ventilation holes 141. By setting the reinforcement frame 143, the supporting structure of the bottom plate 140 is made more solid, avoiding the situation of the bottom plate 140 breaking during transportation.

[0053] It is understandable that a buffer pad is provided on a surface of the bottom plate 140 close to the first protrusion 101 .

[0054] For example, in some embodiments, a buffer pad (not shown in the drawings) is provided on one side of the bottom plate 140 close to the first protrusion 101 to reduce damage to the circuit boards caused by bumps when the circuit board storage box is transported.

[0055] The transport device according to the second embodiment of the application includes the circuit board storage box according to the first embodiment of the application.

[0056] According to the transport equipment of the embodiment of the present application, by providing the first protrusion 101, the second protrusion 111 and the isolation plate 150, the isolation plate 150 can partition the space within the circuit board storage box, and at the same time limit the circuit board to avoid serious collisions during transportation. The provision of multiple first protrusions 101 and multiple second protrusions 111 can be used to partition the circuit boards according to their sizes, thereby facilitating the storage of the circuit boards. Therefore, the circuit board storage box of the embodiment of the present application can be used for circuit boards of different sizes, without having to produce corresponding circuit board storage boxes according to the size of the circuit boards, thereby reducing production costs. By using the circuit board storage box of the present application, the cost required for the production and operation of the transport equipment can be reduced.

[0057] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in the technical field without departing from the purpose of the present application.
