[0029] As Figure 1 And Figure 2As shown, the embodiment provides a multi-section suction device for sucking liquid on the surface of a plate, which comprises a negative pressure generating component 1, a pipeline component 2, a suction component 3 and a communication valve 4. The negative pressure generating component 1 is used to generate negative pressure to provide suction force. The suction component 3 is used to directly suck liquid on the surface of the plate and discharge the liquid. The pipeline component 2 is arranged between the negative pressure generating component 1 and the suction component 3. The suction component 3 comprises a normally-on suction cavity 31 and a gated suction cavity. The normally-on suction cavity 31 is provided with a normally-on suction surface at the end thereof and is kept in communication with the negative pressure generating component 1 through the pipeline component 2. The gated suction cavity is provided with a gated suction surface at the end thereof. The normally-on suction surface and the gated suction surface are located in the same plane. When a small plate with a size greater than the normally-on suction surface but less than the sum of the normally-on suction surface and the gated suction surface is processed, only the normally-on suction surface works to completely suck the liquid; when a large plate with a size greater than the sum of the normally-on suction surface and the gated suction surface is processed, the normally-on suction surface and the gated suction surface work together to suck the liquid on the surface of the plate, which can ensure the size of the suction force while having a large suction area. The communication valve 4 is arranged in the pipeline component 2 and is used to control the mutual communication or isolation of the gated suction cavity and the negative pressure generating component 1. The control of the on-off of the communication valve 4 can realize the control of the suction area to adapt to different specifications of the plate and ensure the suction effect.

[0030] Specifically, when the communication valve 4 is opened, the multi-section suction device is in a first working state and is used to process a large PCB plate. When the communication valve 4 is closed, the multi-section suction device is in a second working state and is used to process a small PCB plate. The size of the small PCB plate is greater than the normally-on suction surface but less than the sum of the normally-on suction surface and the gated suction surface. The size of the large PCB plate is greater than the sum of the normally-on suction surface and the gated suction surface.

[0031] Specifically, in the embodiment, the pipeline component 2 comprises a main flow channel 21 and a branch flow channel 22. The main flow channel 21 is connected to the negative pressure generating component 1. The branch flow channel 22 is used to communicate the main flow channel 21 and the suction component 3. The main flow channel 21 is directly communicated with the negative pressure generating component 1. The branch flow channel 22 is further communicated with the main flow channel 21 and the suction component 3, respectively. This avoids the need to arrange multiple different main flow channels 21 to be communicated with each cavity, reduces the overall length of the required pipeline and reduces material consumption. At the same time, the suction force of each cavity is derived from the same main flow channel 21, which can provide uniform suction force to the surface of the PCB plate and ensure the suction effect of the liquid on the PCB plate. It can be understood that the size of the suction force generated by the suction component 3 can be adjusted by changing the model and power of the negative pressure generating component 1 and / or the thickness of the pipeline component 2, which is not limited in the embodiment.

[0032] Specifically, in the embodiment, the gated suction cavities include a first side suction cavity 32 and a second side suction cavity 33 respectively located on both sides of the always-on suction cavity 31 along the length direction of the main flow channel 21. The always-on suction surface of the always-on suction cavity 31 can continuously generate suction force to suck the liquid medicine. When a large-sized PCB needs to be processed, the gated suction surfaces on the first side suction cavity 32 and the second side suction cavity 33 are communicated with the negative pressure generating assembly 1 to generate suction force, and the liquid medicine is sucked together with the always-on suction surface. When a small-sized PCB needs to be sucked, the gated suction surfaces on the first side suction cavity 32 and the second side suction cavity 33 are isolated from the negative pressure generating assembly 1, and only the always-on suction surface sucks the PCB. Further, the first side suction cavity 32 and the second side suction cavity 33 can generate suction force simultaneously or separately to more flexibly adjust the suction area and process PCBs of different sizes. It can be understood that in the PCB production process, the PCB needs to be driven by a transmission device to move to complete each process. During the transmission process, the PCB is usually arranged at the middle position of the conveying belt to avoid the PCB from being separated from the conveying belt during the movement process. Therefore, when the communication valve 4 is closed, the always-on suction surface arranged in the middle can correspond to the liquid on the surface of the small-sized PCB arranged in the middle of the conveying belt; when the communication valve 4 is opened, the always-on suction surface and the gated suction surface correspond to the liquid on the surface of the large-sized PCB arranged in the middle of the conveying belt.

[0033] Further, in the embodiment, the first side suction cavity 32 and the second side suction cavity 33 are symmetrically arranged about the always-on suction cavity 31. The first side suction cavity 32 and the second side suction cavity 33 symmetrically arranged about the always-on suction cavity 31 can make the liquid on the surface of the large-sized PCB placed in the middle be uniformly sucked when the PCB passes through the multi-section suction device, avoiding that the liquid on the end of the surface of the PCB is not processed.

[0034] Further, in the embodiment, the first side suction cavity 32 is located on the side of the always-on suction cavity 31 away from the negative pressure generating assembly 1. The first side suction cavity 32 and the second side suction cavity 33 are connected through a communication pipeline. The first side suction cavity 32 is connected to the main flow channel 21 through the branch flow channel 22. The communication valve 4 is arranged in the pipeline assembly 2 between the always-on suction cavity 31 and the first side suction cavity 32. At this time, only the first side suction cavity 32 and the always-on suction cavity 31 are connected to the main flow channel 21. The second side suction cavity 33 needs to be connected to the main flow channel 21 through the first side suction cavity 32. When the communication valve 4 is closed, the first side suction cavity 32 is isolated from the negative pressure suction assembly 3. At this time, only the always-on suction surface works to suck the liquid on the PCB board, so as to adapt to small PCB boards. When the communication valve 4 is opened, the first side suction cavity 32 is connected to the negative pressure suction assembly 3. At this time, the always-on suction surface and the gated suction surface work together to suck the liquid on the PCB board, so as to adapt to large PCB boards. The arrangement of the first side suction cavity 32, the second side suction cavity 33, the communication pipeline and the communication valve 4 can reduce the demand for the number of communication valves 4. The operator or the control unit only needs to control the communication valve 4 at the first side suction cavity 32 to realize the control of the suction force of the gated suction surface on both sides of the always-on suction surface. The control process is simple and efficient.

[0035] Further, in the embodiment, the first side suction cavity 32 includes a plurality of first isolation cavities arranged along the length direction of the main flow channel 21 and separated from each other. The second side suction cavity 33 includes a plurality of second isolation cavities arranged symmetrically with the plurality of first isolation cavities about the always-on suction cavity. The first isolation cavities and the second isolation cavities symmetrically arranged with each other are connected through a communication pipeline. Each first isolation cavity is connected to the main flow channel 21 through a branch flow channel 22. The main flow channel 21 between adjacent branch flow channels 22 is provided with a communication valve 4. It can be understood that when a certain communication valve 4 is closed, the main flow channel 21 away from the fluidic device is isolated from the negative pressure generating assembly 1. The first isolation cavity corresponding to this communication valve 4 cannot generate suction force. In addition, the second isolation cavity corresponding to the above-mentioned first isolation cavity cannot generate suction force. Therefore, only one communication valve 4 needs to be closed to realize the multi-stage regulation and control of the suction surface at the bottom of the two side isolation cavities, which can be suitable for the suction of liquid on the surfaces of more different specifications and sizes of PCB boards. In some other embodiments, a communication valve 4 can also be arranged on the branch flow channel 22 directly connected to each first isolation cavity. The on-off of each communication valve 4 is controlled according to the demand when switching the working state.

[0036] Further, in the embodiment, the first side suction cavity 32 and the second side suction cavity 33 each have only one cavity. The two cavities are connected through a connection pipeline transversely crossing the always-on suction cavity 31.

[0037] Further, in the embodiment, the second side suction cavity 33 is located at the side of the always-on suction cavity 31 close to the negative pressure generating assembly 1, the first side suction cavity 32 and the second side suction cavity 33 are communicated through the communication pipeline, the second side suction cavity 33 is communicated with the main flow channel 21 through the branch flow channel 22, and the communication valve 4 is arranged in the branch flow channel 22 between the second side suction cavity 33 and the main flow channel 21. At this time, only the second side suction cavity 33 and the always-on suction cavity 31 are communicated with the main flow channel 21, and the first side suction cavity 32 needs to be communicated with the main flow channel 21 through the first side suction cavity 32. When the communication valve 4 is closed, the second side suction cavity 33 is isolated from the negative pressure suction assembly 3, at this time, only the always-on suction surface works to suck the liquid medicine on the PCB board, so as to adapt to the small PCB board; when the communication valve 4 is opened, the second side suction cavity 33 is communicated with the negative pressure suction assembly 3, at this time, the always-on suction surface and the gating suction surface work together to suck the liquid medicine on the PCB board, so as to adapt to the large PCB board.

[0038] Specifically, in the embodiment, the negative pressure generating assembly 1 includes a fluidic device, and the fluidic device is communicated with the end of the main flow channel 21. When the multi-section suction device works, the fluidic device generates directional high-speed fluid, the directional high-speed fluid expels the air in the pipeline assembly 2 and the suction assembly 3, so that the air pressure in the suction assembly 3 is lower than the external air pressure to generate a pressure difference. When the PCB board with liquid medicine attached approaches the always-on suction surface and the gating suction surface, the pressure difference generates corresponding force to drive the liquid medicine to enter the fluidic device through the suction assembly 3 and the pipeline assembly 2 and be expelled by the directional high-speed fluid, so as to avoid the water pool effect on the PCB board.

[0039] When the liquid medicine on the surface of the large PCB board is sucked, the communication valve 4 is opened, and the liquid medicine on the surface of the large PCB board is sucked into the pipeline assembly 2 through the always-on suction surface and the gating suction surface and is taken out by the directional high-speed fluid in the fluidic device.

[0040] When the liquid medicine on the surface of the small PCB board is sucked, the communication valve 4 is opened, and the liquid medicine on the surface of the small PCB board is only sucked into the pipeline assembly 2 through the always-on suction surface and is taken out by the directional high-speed fluid in the fluidic device.

[0041] Specifically, in the embodiment, the fluid direction in the fluidic device is perpendicular to the main flow channel 21. When the PCB board moves to the multi-section suction device, the PCB board is kept in a horizontal state to complete the reaction of the liquid medicine and the board material. At this time, the main flow channel 21 is also horizontally arranged to make the always-on suction surface and the gating suction surface located in the same horizontal plane. At the same time, the fluidic device is vertically arranged and connected with the main flow channel 21, which reduces the horizontal space occupation of the whole multi-section suction device and provides space utilization rate.

[0042] Specifically, in the embodiment, the communication valve 4 is a ball valve. The ball valve is simple in structure, easy to operate, and small in fluid resistance, and can ensure that a large enough suction force is generated at the selected suction surface. In some other embodiments, it can also be a gate valve, a plug valve, etc., which are not limited in the embodiment.

[0043] Obviously, the above embodiments of the utility model are only examples for clearly illustrating the utility model, and are not a limitation on the embodiments of the utility model. For those skilled in the art, various obvious changes, re-adjustments and substitutions can be made without departing from the protection scope of the utility model. Here, all the embodiments need not and cannot be exhausted. Any modification, equivalent substitution and improvement within the spirit and principle of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model claim.
