[0025] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by this application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for the purpose of explaining this application and are not intended to limit this application. The methods used in this utility model are conventional methods unless otherwise specified; the raw materials and devices used are conventional commercially available products unless otherwise specified.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] Depend on Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, the utility model provides a PCB fixing fixture, which is provided with a fixed base plate 1, and a positioning column 2 is connected to the front of the fixed base plate 1. The fixed base plate 1 is provided with an elongated guide slot 3, and the extension direction of the elongated guide slot 3 is opposite to the positioning column 2. The elongated guide slots 3 are distributed in a circular array with the positioning column 2 as the center; the PCB fixing fixture is also provided with a clamping device, and a clamping device is provided corresponding to each elongated guide slot 3. The clamping device is provided with a linear guide drive device 5, a connecting seat 6, a support plate 7, and a splint 8. The linear guide drive device 5 is installed on the back of the fixed base plate 1, and the telescopic rod of the linear guide drive device 5 is arranged parallel to the elongated guide slot 3. One end of the connecting seat 6 is connected to the telescopic rod of the linear guide drive device 5, and the other end of the connecting seat 6 passes upward through the elongated guide slot 3 and is connected to the support plate 7. The support plate 7 and the splint 8 are arranged on the front of the fixed base plate 1, and the support plate 7 and the splint 8 are connected by a spring 9, and the splint 8 faces the positioning column 2.

[0028] When using, first Figure 6 or Figure 7 The circular PCB board 13 is mounted on the Figure 1 The circular PCB board 13 is placed on the fixed base plate 1 on the positioning column 2 shown in the figure; then all the linear guide drive devices 5 are started, and the telescopic rods of the linear guide drive devices 5 are extended, driving the support plate 7 and the clamping plate 8 to move along the long guide groove 3 toward the positioning column 2 through the connecting seat 6 until the clamping plate 8 rests on the edge of the circular PCB board 13, and the spring 9 plays a role of elastic compression protection. At this time, the linear guide drive device 5 is closed, and the clamping plates 8 of all the clamping devices rest on the edge of the circular PCB board 13, completing the fixation of the circular PCB board 13 and meeting the fixation requirements of the circular PCB board 13.

[0029] In order to increase the contact area of ​​the clamping plate 8 against the edge of the circular PCB board 13 and make the whole fixing process more stable, Figure 4 As shown, the side of the clamping plate 8 facing the positioning column 2 is preferably an arc-shaped structure 4.

[0030] In order to prevent the edge of the circular PCB board 13 from being squeezed and damaged, the entire process of the clamping plate 8 resting on the circular PCB board 13 is made more stable. Figure 4 As shown, the clamping plate 8 is located on the side of the arc structure 4 and is preferably connected to a buffer pad 10. The buffer pad 10 is an existing device and its material can be an elastic material such as rubber.

[0031] In order to facilitate positioning and prevent the circular PCB board 13 placed on the bottom plate from rotating, and to facilitate welding, drilling and other operations after fixing, the Figure 1As shown, the cross section of the positioning post 2 is preferably polygonal. Accordingly, the shape and size of the positioning hole 14 of the circular PCB board 13 match the positioning post 2. Figure 6 or Figure 7 shown.

[0032] Depend on Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, the linear guide drive device 5 of the present invention is preferably an oil cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder, and can also be an electric cylinder.

[0033] Example 2

[0034] Based on the technical solution of the above embodiment 1, Figure 8 As shown, the PCB fixing fixture of the present invention is further provided with a touch sensor 11 , which is arranged between the clamping plate 8 and the support plate 7 , and the touch sensor 11 is spaced apart from the clamping plate 8 , and the touch sensor 11 is connected to the support plate 7 .

[0035] Depend on Figure 9 As shown, the PCB fixture is preferably also provided with an intelligent control system, which includes an intelligent control device 12, which can be a PLC. The intelligent control device 12 is electrically connected to the touch sensor 11 and the linear guide drive device 5 through control circuits. When in use, the telescopic rod of the linear guide drive device 5 extends, driving the support plate 7 and the clamping plate 8 to move along the long guide groove 3 toward the positioning column 2 through the connecting seat 6, until the clamping plate 8 abuts against the edge of the circular PCB board 13. The spring 9 is gradually compressed under the push of the clamping plate 8. When the clamping plate 8 moves backward and touches the touch sensor 11, the touch sensor 11 generates a sensing signal and transmits the sensing signal to the intelligent control device 12 through the control circuit. After receiving the sensing signal, the intelligent control device 12 sends a command to the linear guide drive device 5, and the linear guide drive device 5 stops working after receiving the command. The working principle of all linear guide drive devices 5 is the same and will not be repeated here. Finally, the clamps 8 of all the clamp devices abut against the edges of the circular PCB board 13, completing the fixation of the circular PCB board 13, meeting the fixation requirements of the circular PCB board 13, and realizing automatic control of the fixation of the circular PCB board 13.

[0036] It should be noted that:

[0037] (1) In Example 1, Figure 6 、 Figure 7 As shown, the positioning hole 14 of the circular PCB board 13 is set at the center of the bottom surface of the circular PCB board 13. The difference between the two is that, Figure 6 The positioning hole 14 is a blind hole. Figure 7 The positioning hole 14 is a through hole.

[0038] (2) In Example 2, when the linear guide drive device 5 is a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder, the solenoid valve of the hydraulic cylinder or pneumatic cylinder receives a command from the intelligent control device 12 and performs a corresponding action. When the linear guide drive device 5 is an electric cylinder, the motor of the electric cylinder receives a command from the intelligent control device 12 and performs a corresponding action.
