Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of new energy battery technology, and in particular to a PCB board flipping mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] New energy battery PCB board flipping mechanisms are used in automated production to improve the efficiency and accuracy of battery assembly. With the development of new energy battery technology, PCB boards need to be flipped precisely to complete electrical connections and functional tests on different surfaces. Traditional flipping methods have problems such as cumbersome operation and low efficiency. Modern flipping mechanisms, through automated design, have improved flipping speed, stability and accuracy, and are adapted to the needs of large-scale production.

[0003] However, in actual use, the following shortcomings still exist. For example, the existing PCB board flipping mechanism cannot flip the PCB board to different positions. In the PCB board production process, double-sided inspection and processing are common requirements. If the flipping mechanism cannot flexibly flip the PCB board to different positions, it may be necessary to manually adjust or use additional tools to assist in the flipping. This will increase the operation time and reduce the overall efficiency of the production line. Operators need to frequently adjust the flipping mechanism or manually flip the PCB board, which not only increases the difficulty of operation, but may also cause damage to the PCB board or inaccurate positioning due to improper operation.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes a PCB board flipping mechanism to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a PCB board flipping mechanism.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a PCB board flipping mechanism, comprising:

[0007] Base plate;

[0008] A flipping assembly is placed on top of a base plate. The flipping assembly includes a fixed block fixed to the top of the base plate. A limit groove is formed on the fixed block near the top. A support plate is provided in the limit groove. A gear is fixedly connected to the support plate near the limit groove. A first moving block is slidably connected to the base plate near the gear. A rack is fixedly connected to the first moving block near the top. The gear meshes with the rack. A first connecting rod is fixedly connected to the first moving block. A second moving block is fixedly connected to the first connecting rod. The second moving block is slidably connected to the base plate. A first drive motor is provided on one side of the base plate. A first slider is fixedly connected to the output end of the first drive motor. A limit rod is slidably connected in the first slider. A support block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limit rod. A telescopic spring is provided on the limit rod. A second slider is rotatably connected to the support block. A second connecting rod is slidably connected in the second slider. The second connecting rod is fixedly connected to the second moving block.

[0009] A clamping assembly is placed on one side of the bottom of a support plate. The clamping assembly includes a second drive motor installed at the bottom of the support plate. A rotating block is fixedly connected to the output end of the second drive motor. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the rotating block. A clamping plate is rotatably connected to the other end of the rotating rod.

[0010] Furthermore, a limiting block is fixedly connected to the side of the base plate near the first moving block, and the first connecting rod is slidably connected within the limiting block.

[0011] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are: the limiting block is fixed on the side of the base plate near the first moving block to limit the range of motion of the first connecting rod. Through the sliding connection, the first connecting rod can slide within the limiting block, which can ensure the stability and accuracy during the flipping process and avoid equipment damage or operational errors caused by excessive movement.

[0012] Furthermore, one end of the telescopic spring is fixedly connected to the first slider, and the other end of the telescopic spring is fixedly connected to the support block.

[0013] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that one end of the telescopic spring is fixedly connected to the first slider and the other end is fixedly connected to the support block, so that the telescopic spring can provide elastic buffering between the first slider and the support block. When the first drive motor drives the first slider to move up and down, the telescopic spring will extend and retract as needed to adapt to different working states and load changes.

[0014] Furthermore, a support frame is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the base plate, and the first drive motor is mounted on the support frame.

[0015] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the support frame is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the base plate for installing the first drive motor, so that the support frame can provide the necessary support and fixation for the first drive motor, enabling it to work normally and perform its due function.

[0016] Furthermore, a groove is provided on the side of the support plate near the clamping plate.

[0017] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that a sliding groove is provided on the side of the support plate near the clamping plate. This sliding groove is used to guide and fix the clamping plate, ensuring that it can move smoothly and accurately during the flipping process. Through the design of the sliding groove, the clamping plate can slide along the preset trajectory, thereby realizing the precise clamping and flipping of the PCB board.

[0018] Furthermore, the clamping plate is slidably connected within the groove.

[0019] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are: the clamp is slidably connected in the groove on the support plate, so that the clamp can slide smoothly along the groove, thereby achieving precise clamping and flipping of the PCB board. Through the sliding connection, the clamp can be easily moved to the designated position when needed, ensuring that the PCB board will not be displaced or damaged during the flipping process.

[0020] Furthermore, a rubber pad is fixedly connected to the clamp.

[0021] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that, since the clamping plate is fixedly connected with a rubber pad, when the PCB board is clamped, the rubber pad can protect the PCB board and prevent the clamping force from being too large and causing damage to the PCB board.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0023] In this invention, when the first drive motor starts, its output end drives the first slider to move along the limiting rod. Due to the action of the telescopic spring, the connection between the support block and the second slider remains tight, allowing the second slider to move along with the first slider. When the second slider moves, it drives the second connecting rod to move, which in turn drives the second moving block to move. The second moving block then drives the first moving block and the first connecting rod to slide on the base plate. Simultaneously, due to the meshing of the gear and rack, the movement of the second moving block drives the gear to rotate. When the gear rotates, it causes the support plate to rotate along the limiting groove, thereby enabling the PCB board on the support plate to be flipped at different positions.

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0033] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a technical solution: a PCB board flipping mechanism, comprising:

[0034] Base plate 1;

[0035] The flipping assembly 2 is placed on top of the base plate 1. The flipping assembly 2 includes a fixing block 21 fixed to the top of the base plate 1. A limiting groove 22 is formed on the side of the fixing block 21 near the top. A support plate 23 is disposed within the limiting groove 22. A gear 24 is fixedly connected to the side of the support plate 23 near the limiting groove 22. A first moving block 25 is slidably connected to the side of the base plate 1 near the gear 24. A rack 26 is fixedly connected to the side of the first moving block 25 near the top. The gear 24 meshes with the rack 26. A first connecting rod 28 is fixedly connected to the first moving block 25. A second movable block 29 is fixedly connected and slidably connected to the base plate 1. A first drive motor 211 is provided on one side of the base plate 1. A first slider 212 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first drive motor 211. A limit rod 213 is slidably connected inside the first slider 212. A support block 214 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limit rod 213. A telescopic spring 215 is provided on the limit rod 213. A second slider 216 is rotatably connected to the support block 214. A second connecting rod 217 is slidably connected inside the second slider 216. The second connecting rod 217 is fixedly connected to the second movable block 29.

[0036] The clamping assembly 3 is located on one side of the bottom of the support plate 23. The clamping assembly 3 includes a second drive motor 31 mounted on the bottom of the support plate 23. A rotating block 32 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second drive motor 31. A rotating rod 33 is rotatably connected to the rotating block 32. A clamping plate 34 is rotatably connected to the other end of the rotating rod 33. When the first drive motor 211 starts, its output end drives the first slider 212 to move along the limiting rod 213. Due to the action of the telescopic spring 215, the connection between the support block 214 and the second slider 216 remains tight, allowing the second slider 216 to move along with the first slider 212. When the second slider 216 moves, it drives the second connecting rod 217 to move, which in turn drives the second moving block 216. 9. The second moving block 29 drives the first moving block 25 and the first connecting rod 28 to slide on the base plate 1. At the same time, since the gear 24 meshes with the rack 26, the movement of the second moving block 29 will drive the gear 24 to rotate. When the gear 24 rotates, the support plate 23 rotates along the limiting groove 22, thereby realizing the flipping operation of the PCB board on the support plate 23 at different positions. When the second drive motor 31 starts, its output end drives the rotating block 32 to rotate. Since the rotating rod 33 is connected to the rotating block 32, the rotating rod 33 will also rotate with the rotation of the rotating block 32. When the rotating rod 33 rotates, through the connection between the rotating rod 33 and the clamping plate 34, the clamping plate 34 slides in the slide groove 35, so that the clamping plate 34 clamps the PCB board placed on the support plate 23.

[0037] The above solutions also have the problem of not being able to clamp and fix the PVC board when it needs to be flipped. Figures 1-3 As shown: A limiting block 27 is fixedly connected to the side of the base plate 1 near the first moving block 25. The first connecting rod 28 is slidably connected within the limiting block 27. The limiting block 27 is fixed to the side of the base plate 1 near the first moving block 25 to limit the range of motion of the first connecting rod 28. Through the sliding connection, the first connecting rod 28 can slide within the limiting block 27, ensuring stability and accuracy during the flipping process and avoiding equipment damage or operational errors caused by excessive movement. One end of the telescopic spring 215 is fixedly connected to the first slider 212, and the other end of the telescopic spring 215 is fixedly connected to the support block 214. The other end is fixedly connected to the support block 214, so that the telescopic spring 215 can provide elastic buffering between the first slider 212 and the support block 214. When the first drive motor 211 drives the first slider 212 to move up and down, the telescopic spring 215 will extend and retract as needed to adapt to different working states and load changes. A support frame 210 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the base plate 1. The first drive motor 211 is mounted on the support frame 210. The support frame 210 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the base plate 1 for mounting the first drive motor 211, so that the support frame 210 can provide the necessary support and fixation for the first drive motor 211, so that it can work normally and perform its due function.

[0038] like Figure 1 as well as Figure 4 As shown, a groove 35 is provided on the side of the support plate 23 near the clamping plate 34. This groove 35 is used to guide and fix the clamping plate 34, ensuring that it can move smoothly and accurately during the flipping process. Through the design of the groove 35, the clamping plate 34 can slide along a preset trajectory, thereby achieving precise clamping and flipping of the PCB board. The clamping plate 34 is slidably connected in the groove 35 on the support plate 23, allowing the clamping plate 34 to move along the groove 35. The slide 35 slides smoothly, thereby achieving precise clamping and flipping of the PCB board. Through the sliding connection, the clamping plate 34 can be easily moved to the designated position when needed, ensuring that the PCB board will not be displaced or damaged during the flipping process. A rubber pad 36 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 34. Because the rubber pad 36 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 34, the rubber pad 36 can protect the PCB board when clamping it, preventing excessive clamping force from damaging the PCB board.

[0039] Working principle:

[0040] like Figures 1-4 As shown, firstly, the PCB board is placed above the support plate 23. The second drive motor 31 is started, and its output end drives the rotating block 32 to rotate. Since the rotating rod 33 is connected to the rotating block 32, the rotating rod 33 also rotates with the rotating block 32. When the rotating rod 33 rotates, through the connection between the rotating rod 33 and the clamping plate 34, the clamping plate 34 slides in the slide groove 35, so that the clamping plate 34 clamps the PCB board placed on the support plate 23. Subsequently, the first drive motor 211 is started, and its output end drives the first slider 212 to move along the limiting rod 213. Due to the action of the telescopic spring 215, the connection between the support block 214 and the second slider 216 remains tight, so that the first slider 212 moves along the limiting rod 213. The second slider 216 can move along with the first slider 212. When the second slider 216 moves, it causes the second connecting rod 217 to move. The second connecting rod 217 then causes the second moving block 29 to move. The second moving block 29 causes the first moving block 25 and the first connecting rod 28 to slide on the base plate 1. At the same time, since the gear 24 meshes with the rack 26, the movement of the second moving block 29 will cause the gear 24 to rotate. When the gear 24 rotates, the support plate 23 rotates along the limiting groove 22, realizing the flipping operation of the PCB board on the support plate 23 at different positions. After the flipping is completed, the PCB board is released from the clamp, completing the flipping operation of the PCB board.

[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
