[0013] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an automatic feeding screen printing machine for printed circuit boards, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] (1) This utility model is equipped with a lifting plate. When using the automatic feeding screen printing machine for printed circuit boards, multiple circuit boards are placed on a set of belt conveyors on the left side. The controller is then used to make the two sets of belt conveyors work. When a set of circuit boards moves to the upper part of the lifting plate, the next set of circuit boards will push the previous set of circuit boards to move. When the laser sensor detects the gap between two adjacent sets of circuit boards, it will send a signal to the controller. The controller will then extend the electric telescopic rod and stop the two sets of belt conveyors. The lifting plate can drive a set of circuit boards to move up. During this process, the mounting frame plate can limit the circuit board. When the circuit board contacts the screen printing screen, the controller is used to make the forward and reverse motors work and open and close the solenoid valves. When the output end of the forward and reverse motors drives the wire lever to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, the wire lever and the screw sleeve are engaged with each other. The clockwise and counterclockwise rotating wire lever can push the screw sleeve to move left and right. The lead screw sleeve can drive the moving plate, ink reservoir, and two sets of scrapers to move left and right. The ink inside the ink reservoir can enter the ink reservoir through the connecting hose. The ink is finally sprayed out through multiple sets of nozzles and lands on the screen printing screen. The two sets of scrapers moving left and right can scrape the ink to complete the screen printing process of the circuit board. After screen printing is completed, the controller stops the forward and reverse motors, closes the solenoid valve, and shortens the electric telescopic rod. The lifting plate can drive the screen-printed circuit board to move down. When the lifting plate presses the pressure sensor, it can send a signal to the controller. At this time, the controller makes the two sets of belt conveyors work. The next set of circuit boards can push the screen-printed circuit board to the right, so that it finally lands on the right set of belt conveyors. Repeat the above operation to automatically load and unload multiple sets of circuit boards. With the lifting plate, the loading and unloading of circuit boards can be completed labor-savingly, which improves the practicality of the automatic feeding screen printing machine for printed circuit boards.
[0016] (2) This utility model is equipped with a socket plate. According to the above operation, the controller is used to make the forward and reverse motor work. When the output end of the forward and reverse motor drives the screw lever to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, the clockwise and counterclockwise rotating screw lever can push the screw sleeve to move left and right. The left and right moving screw sleeve can drive the moving plate, ink storage box and two sets of scrapers to move left and right. During this process, the ink storage box can pull the connecting hose. When the ink storage box pulls the connecting hose to the right, the connecting hose can drive the socket plate to move to the right. The right-moving socket plate can squeeze the two sets of telescopic springs. When the ink storage box pulls the connecting hose to the left, the two sets of telescopic springs can push the socket plate under their own elastic force, ensuring that the socket plate can pull the side wall of the connecting hose and preventing the connecting hose from falling onto the screen due to looseness. By setting the socket plate, it is possible to prevent the loose ink discharge pipe from falling onto the screen, which provides a guarantee for the continuous screen printing of the automatic feeding screen printing machine for printed circuit boards.

[0028] In one embodiment, the lead lever 3 and the lead screw sleeve 4 are threadedly engaged to facilitate adjustment of the working position of the lead screw sleeve 4.
[0029] In one embodiment, the inner wall of the socket plate 20 is provided with a threaded through hole 24, and a fastening bolt 23 passes through the inside of the threaded through hole 24. Two sets of crossbars 21 slide through the side wall of the socket plate 20, and the two ends of the two sets of crossbars 21 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner sides of the mounting cover 2. The side walls of the two sets of crossbars 21 are all fitted with telescopic springs 22.

[0030] In one embodiment, the threaded through hole 24 and the fastening bolt 23 are threaded together, which facilitates the adjustment of the position of the fastening bolt 23.
[0031] In one embodiment, a controller is installed on one side of the mounting cover 2, and the controller is electrically connected to the solenoid valve, the forward and reverse motor 12, the electric telescopic rod 13, the pressure sensor 18, the two sets of belt conveyors 17 and the laser displacement sensor 19 via wires. The controller can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art, which is common knowledge in the art. It is only used and not modified, so the control method and circuit connection will not be described in detail.
[0032] In one embodiment, a support frame is installed at the lower part of the groove plate 1, and the support frame serves to support the groove plate 1.
[0033] Working principle:
[0034] In actual use of the automatic PCB feeding screen printing machine, multiple PCBs are placed on a set of conveyor belts 17 on the left side. The controller then operates both sets of conveyor belts 17. When one set of PCBs moves to the top of the lifting plate 14, the next set of PCBs pushes the previous set. When the laser sensor detects the gap between two adjacent sets of PCBs, it sends a signal to the controller. The controller then extends the electric telescopic rod 13 and simultaneously stops both sets of conveyor belts 17. The lifting plate 14 can then move one set of PCBs upwards. During this process, the mounting frame 15 can limit the movement of this set of PCBs. When the PCB contacts the screen printing mesh 9, the controller activates the forward and reverse motors 12, simultaneously opening and closing the solenoid valves. The forward and reverse motors 12 then... When the output end drives the lead lever 3 to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, due to the threaded engagement between the lead lever 3 and the lead screw sleeve 4, the clockwise and counterclockwise rotating lead lever 3 can push the lead screw sleeve 4 to move left and right. The left and right movement of the lead screw sleeve 4 can drive the moving plate 5, the ink storage box 7, and the two sets of scrapers 8 to move left and right. The ink inside the ink box 10 can enter the ink storage box 7 through the connecting hose 11. The ink is finally sprayed out through multiple nozzles and falls onto the screen printing screen 9. The two sets of scrapers 8 that move left and right can scrape the ink to complete the screen printing process of the circuit board. When the screen printing is completed, the controller stops the forward and reverse motor 12, closes the solenoid valve, and shortens the electric telescopic rod 13. The lifting plate 14 can drive the screen-printed circuit board to move down. When pressure sensor 18 is pressed, a signal is sent to the controller. The controller then activates two sets of conveyor belts 17. The next set of circuit boards can be pushed to the right after screen printing, eventually landing on the right-side conveyor belt 17. Repeating this operation allows for automatic loading and unloading of multiple sets of circuit boards. The lifting plate 14 allows for labor-saving loading and unloading of circuit boards, improving the practicality of the automatic board feeding screen printing machine. Furthermore, according to the above operation, the controller activates the reversible motor 12. When the output of the reversible motor 12 drives the lever 3 to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, the clockwise and counterclockwise rotating lever 3 pushes the lead screw sleeve 4 to move left and right. 4 can drive the moving plate 5, ink storage box 7, and two sets of scrapers 8 to move left and right. During this process, the ink storage box 7 can pull the connecting hose 11. When the ink storage box 7 pulls the connecting hose 11 to the right, the connecting hose 11 can drive the socket plate 20 to the right. The right-moving socket plate 20 can squeeze the two sets of telescopic springs 22. When the ink storage box 7 pulls the connecting hose 11 to the left, the two sets of telescopic springs 22 can push the socket plate 20 under their own elastic force, ensuring that the socket plate 20 can pull the side wall of the connecting hose 11 and prevent the connecting hose 11 from falling onto the screen printing screen 9 due to slack. By setting the socket plate 20, it is possible to prevent the slack ink discharge pipe from falling onto the screen printing screen 9, thus ensuring the continuous screen printing of the automatic feeding screen printing machine for printed circuit boards.
