Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of positioning tooling technology, specifically a positioning tooling for drilling circuit boards. Background Technology

[0002] A circuit board, also known as a PCB, is one of the most important carriers of electronic components in the modern electronics industry. To facilitate installation, holes are usually drilled into the PCB; positioning fixtures must be made before drilling.

[0003] Chinese patent CN211806547U discloses a PCB circuit board drilling positioning fixture, including a positioning plate and a clamping plate, with the clamping plate covering the positioning plate. The positioning plate has a fixed support column and at least one movable support column connected to it. Two mutually perpendicular baffles are provided on the fixed support column. A lower guide sleeve is slidably connected to the positioning plate, and an upper guide sleeve is slidably connected to the clamping plate. The upper and lower guide sleeves can slide to be vertically opposite each other. This PCB circuit board drilling positioning fixture can reduce the micro-deformation of the PCB board during drilling, ensuring drilling accuracy.

[0004] While the micro-deformation of the circuit board during drilling can be reduced in the above cases, the positioning fixtures are not suitable for drilling circuit boards of different shapes due to the different PCB shapes. This requires redesigning the fixtures, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Technical problems to be solved

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a positioning fixture for drilling holes in circuit boards, thus solving the aforementioned technical problems.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a positioning fixture for drilling circuit boards, comprising a device platform, a frame arranged on the device platform, a hydraulic telescopic rod mounted on the frame, a drill bit mounted on the actuating output end of the hydraulic telescopic rod, a transmission cavity formed on the device platform, a transmission gear rotatably mounted at the center of the transmission cavity, two sliding strips slidably mounted inside the transmission cavity, transmission racks protruding from the sliding strips and meshing with the transmission gears, a limiting groove formed at the top of the sliding strips, a sliding shaft slidably arranged within the limiting groove, an L-shaped clamping block connected to the top of the sliding shaft, four guide grooves communicating with the outside formed at the top of the transmission cavity, the ends of the four sliding shafts away from the limiting grooves respectively slidably arranged within the four guide grooves, four support columns provided at the bottom of the device platform, and a through hole formed at the center of the device platform.

[0008] Preferably, a threaded rod is rotatably mounted inside the transmission cavity, and one of the sliding bars is threadedly connected to the threaded rod.

[0009] Preferably, one end of the threaded rod extends through the transmission cavity to the outside, and a handwheel is connected to the end of the threaded rod extending to the outside.

[0010] Preferably, a support seat is arranged inside the transmission cavity, and the end of the threaded rod away from the handwheel is rotatably mounted in the support seat.

[0011] Preferably, the transmission cavity is provided with two guide rods, and the two sliding bars are slidably arranged on the two guide rods.

[0012] Preferably, the sliding bar has a notch, the size of which is adapted to the transmission rack.

[0013] Preferably, the sliding bar has a sliding hole with the same diameter as the guide rod.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a positioning fixture for drilling holes in circuit boards, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] This invention utilizes a combination of threaded rods, sliding bars, sliding shafts, and L-shaped clamps to allow the circuit board to be placed on a platform during use. By rotating the threaded rod, one of the sliding bars slides within the transmission cavity through the threaded connection. This allows the transmission rack on the sliding bar to engage with the transmission gear, causing the transmission rack on the other sliding bar to slide horizontally and simultaneously approach each other. As the sliding bars slide horizontally, the sliding shaft connected to the sliding bar slides along the guide groove, causing the four L-shaped clamps to converge towards the center and clamp the circuit board. This allows the platform to clamp and fix circuit boards of different sizes. After fixing, the drill bit can be vertically lowered by the hydraulic telescopic rod on the frame to drill holes in the circuit board. Attached Figure Description

[0023] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4A positioning fixture for drilling circuit boards includes a platform 1, a frame 3 on the platform 1, a hydraulic telescopic rod 4 on the frame 3, a drill bit 5 on the output end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 4, a transmission cavity 16 on the platform 1, a transmission gear 11 rotatably mounted at the center of the transmission cavity 16, two sliding strips 13 slidably mounted inside the transmission cavity 16, a transmission rack 12 protruding from the sliding strips 13 and meshing with the transmission gear 11, a limiting groove 20 on the top of the sliding strips 13, a sliding shaft 19 slidably arranged inside the limiting groove 20, an L-shaped clamp 6 connected to the top of the sliding shaft 19, four guide grooves 7 communicating with the outside on the top of the transmission cavity 16, one end of the four sliding shafts 19 away from the limiting groove 20 respectively slidably arranged in the four guide grooves 7, a threaded rod 9 rotatably mounted inside the transmission cavity 16, one of the sliding strips 13 being threadedly connected to the threaded rod 9, four support columns 2 at the bottom of the platform 1, and a through hole 18 at the center of the platform 1.

[0025] By employing the interplay of components such as the threaded rod 9, sliding bar 13, sliding shaft 19, and L-shaped clamping blocks 6, the circuit board can be placed on the device platform 1 during use. Rotating the threaded rod 9 causes one of the sliding bars 13 to slide within the transmission cavity 16 via the threaded screw thread. This allows the transmission rack 12 on the sliding bar 13 to engage with the transmission gear 11, causing the transmission rack 12 on the other sliding bar 13 to slide horizontally. This enables the two sliding bars 13 to move closer together synchronously. As the sliding bar 13 slides horizontally, the sliding shaft 19 connected to it slides along the guide groove 7, causing the four L-shaped clamping blocks 6 to converge synchronously towards the center and clamp the circuit board. This allows the device platform 1 to clamp and fix circuit boards of different sizes. After fixing, the drill bit 5 can be vertically lowered via the hydraulic telescopic rod 4 on the frame 3 to drill holes in the circuit board.

[0026] Specifically, in this embodiment, one end of the threaded rod 9 extends through the transmission cavity 16 to the outside, and the end of the threaded rod 9 extending to the outside is connected to a handwheel 8.

[0027] The handwheel 8 allows for easy rotation of the threaded rod 9. The handwheel 8 can be replaced with a motor to drive the threaded rod 9 as needed.

[0028] Specifically, in this embodiment, a support seat 10 is arranged inside the transmission cavity 16, and the end of the threaded rod 9 away from the handwheel 8 is rotatably installed in the support seat 10.

[0029] The support seat 10 can support one end of the threaded rod 9, thereby ensuring the stability of the threaded rod 9 during rotation.

[0030] Specifically, in this embodiment, two guide rods 17 are provided in the transmission cavity 16, and two sliding bars 13 are slidably arranged on the two guide rods 17. A sliding hole 14 is provided on the sliding bar 13, and the diameter of the sliding hole 14 is the same as the diameter of the guide rod 17.

[0031] By the cooperation of the sliding hole 14 and the guide rod 17, the sliding bar 13 can slide along the guide rod 17 through the sliding hole 14, thereby guiding the movement direction of the sliding bar 13.

[0032] Specifically, in this embodiment, the sliding bar 13 has a notch 15, the size of which is adapted to the transmission rack 12.

[0033] By providing the notch 15, when the two sliding bars 13 approach each other, the transmission rack 12 on the sliding bar 13 can pass through the notch 15 on the other sliding bar 13, thereby ensuring the range of movement of the two sliding bars 13.

[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
