[0048] The embodiments of the present application are described below in detail. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application and cannot be understood as a limitation to the present application; it should be noted that all the technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as understood by the person skilled in the art of the present application unless otherwise defined; the embodiments and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict; many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to fully understand the present application, and the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments.
[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an embodiment of the present application provides a processing equipment 100 which is applied to surface processing of flexible circuit board, such as copper plating, gold plating. In other embodiments, the processing equipment 100 can also be used for surface processing of flexible film capacitor metallization, flexible printed electronic circuit passivation, flexible solar cell panel conductive film preparation, and flexible electronic tag oxidation-resistant coating, etc.
[0050] In the embodiment, the processing equipment 100 includes a suspension assembly 10, a feed roll 20, a take-up roll 30, a plurality of deflection rollers 40, and a plurality of processing tanks 50. The suspension assembly 10 is used to suspend the material and provide guidance for the movement of the material. The feed roll 20 is used to release the material 200, and the take-up roll 30 is used to wind the material 200. The processing tank 50 is used to accommodate the chemical solution which can be used for surface treatment of the material 200.
[0051] The suspension assembly 10 includes a conveying track 11 and a plurality of clamping members 12 movably arranged on the conveying track 11. The conveying track 11 includes a plurality of deflection extension segments 111 connected in sequence, and the extension directions of adjacent two deflection extension segments 111 are different. The clamping member 12 is used to clamp the material 200.
[0052] The plurality of processing tanks 50 are arranged in the vertical direction A with the suspension assembly 10, and each processing tank 50 corresponds to a deflection extension segment 111 in the vertical direction A. The processing tank 50 is used to accommodate and process the material 200.
[0053] The feed roll 20 is arranged apart from the processing tank 50. The take-up roll 30 is arranged apart from the processing tank 50. The take-up roll 30 is drivingly connected to a driving motor, and the driving motor can provide power support for the rotation of the take-up roll 30.
[0054] The deflection rollers 40 are arranged between the material release roll 20 and the material collection roll 30, and each deflection roller 40 is arranged at the end of each adjacent processing groove 50, and the deflection roller 40 is used to guide the deflection of the material 200. The deflection roller 40 is drivingly connected to the driving motor, and provides power support for the movement of the material.
[0055] In specific operation, the material 200 is first released from the material release roll 20, and the material 200 is immediately clamped by the clamping member 12 of the suspension assembly 10. Then, the material collection roll 30 is operated, and the clamping member 12 with the material 200 moves along the multiple deflection extension segments 111 of the conveying track 11 in sequence. Since the extension directions of the adjacent deflection extension segments 111 are different, the material 200 is flexibly transferred in multiple directions on the conveying track 11, which changes the limitation of the traditional linear conveying, thereby facilitating the saving of space occupation of the processing equipment 100 in a certain direction.
[0056] When the material 200 moves into the processing groove 50, it is subjected to the preset processing technology in the processing groove 50, such as chemical plating, surface cleaning, etching, etc. Different processing grooves 50 are configured with different process parameters according to specific production requirements to realize diversified and fine processing of the material 200.
[0057] After completing the processing in one processing groove 50, the material 200 contacts the deflection roller 40 arranged at the outlet, and the deflection roller 40 plays a role in guiding the deflection, so that the material 200 is smoothly deflected into the area corresponding to the next adjacent processing groove 50, and then clamped by the clamping member 12 of the upper suspension assembly 10, and the material 200 is conveyed into the next processing groove 50 for further processing.
[0058] In this way, the material 200 is sequentially conveyed through each processing groove 50, and after completing all the set processing procedures, the material 200 finally reaches the material collection roll 30, and the material collection roll 30 neatly and tightly winds up the processed material 200 according to the set winding parameters, which is convenient for subsequent storage, transportation and further use.
[0059] In the embodiment, the extension directions of the two adjacent turning extension sections 111 are opposite, that is, if the previous turning extension section 111 extends in the horizontal left direction, the next adjacent turning extension section 111 extends in the horizontal right direction; if the previous section extends obliquely upward, the next adjacent section extends obliquely downward, showing the layout feature of two-by-two opposition and mutual reversal. The advantage of such a setting is that it can make the material 200 realize more regular and efficient turning on the conveying track 11, so that the transportation path of the material 200 can form a zigzag or continuous polyline layout in a limited space range, maximally utilize the longitudinal and lateral space of the equipment, avoid the space waste problem caused by the overextension of the traditional straight line conveying mode in a single direction, effectively reduce the overall land occupation of the equipment, and make it more easily adapt to different scale and layout of the production workshop environment.
[0060] In other modes of the application, the extension directions of the two adjacent turning extension sections 111 can be inclined at a certain angle, and the angle can be flexibly determined according to the actual production process requirements, the workshop space layout, and the specific characteristics of the material 200, etc. For example, the included angle of the extension directions of the adjacent turning extension sections 111 can be 30°, 60°, 120°, etc. When such a non-opposite direction setting is adopted, the transfer path of the material 200 on the conveying track 11 becomes more diversified and flexible, and can create more complex and variable space transportation lines according to different processing procedures.
[0061] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiment, the conveying track 11 further includes a connecting section 112 connecting the two most distant turning extension sections 111, so as to close the conveying track 11. In this way, the transportation path of the material 200 on the conveying track 11 forms a complete closed loop, having the ability of circulating transportation. After completing a round of processing through a series of processing grooves 50, the plurality of clamping pieces 12 can enter the next round of processing procedure along the closed conveying track 11 without additional complex transfer operation, greatly improving the continuity and overall efficiency of processing.
[0062] Please refer to Figure 3 In the embodiment, each clamping piece 12 includes a connecting rod 121, a ring-shaped elastic buckle 122 connected to one end of the connecting rod 121, and two clamping portions 123 connected to the ring-shaped elastic buckle 122. The end of the connecting rod 121 away from the ring-shaped elastic buckle 122 is movably arranged on the conveying track 11. The ring-shaped elastic buckle 122 is generally arc-shaped, and includes a first portion 122a and a second portion 122b. The connecting rod 121 is connected between the first portion 122a and the second portion 122b.
[0063] The first part 122a passes through one clamping part 123 and abuts the outside of the one clamping part 123 at one end away from the second part 122b. The second part 122b passes through the other clamping part 123 and abuts the outside of the other clamping part 123 at one end away from the first part 122a. The annular elastic buckle 122 is used to provide a continuous and stable elastic force, so that the two clamping parts 123 maintain the tendency of moving in the same direction, thereby being able to firmly clamp the material 200 and avoiding loosening, slipping and other situations during transportation and subsequent processing of the material 200.
[0064] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the embodiment, the clamping member 12 further includes two guide wheels 124, one of which is arranged on the outside of one clamping part 123, and the other of which is arranged on the outside of the other clamping part 123. The rotation axes of the two guide wheels 124 are arranged substantially parallel to the connecting rod 121. The processing equipment 100 further includes a feeding assembly 60. The feeding assembly 60 includes two first opening and closing rails 61 arranged at intervals, which are arranged substantially parallel to the conveying track 11. That is, the distance between the first opening and closing rails 61 and the conveying track 11 is fixed. Each first opening and closing rail 61 is substantially arc-shaped, and the convex sides of the two first opening and closing rails 61 are arranged opposite to each other, so that the two first opening and closing rails 61 are substantially hyperbolic. That is, the two first opening and closing rails 61 define a first channel 62, the two ends of which are large and the middle part of which is small.
[0065] Please refer to Figure 5 In operation, the clamping member 12 can enter the first channel 62, and each guide wheel 124 can enter one first opening and closing rail 61. Since the ends of the first channel 62 are large, in the process of the clamping member 12 entering the middle part from the ends, the two first opening and closing rails 61 will overcome the elastic force of the annular elastic buckle 122 and push the two guide wheels 124 close to each other, so that the two clamping parts 123 are opened. In this process, as the guide wheels 124 gradually move to the middle part of the channel along the first opening and closing rails 61, the extrusion force exerted by the first opening and closing rails 61 on the guide wheels 124 will continue to increase, thereby overcoming the elastic force of the annular elastic buckle 122 that originally keeps the two clamping parts 123 close, so that the distance between the two clamping parts 123 gradually increases until the material 200 to be processed can be accommodated.
[0066] Conversely, in the process of moving the clamping member 12 from the middle part to the end part, as the guide wheels 124 move along the first open-close rail 61 from the middle part of the passage to the end part where the opening gradually increases, the extrusion force of the first open-close rail 61 on the guide wheels 124 gradually decreases. At this time, the annular elastic buckle 122 starts to play a role by relying on its own elastic restoring force, pushing the two guide wheels 124 away from each other, and then driving the two clamping parts 123 to gradually restore to a close state, and finally clamping the material 200 located between the two clamping parts 123.
[0067] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the embodiment, the processing equipment 100 further comprises a discharging assembly 70, which is substantially the same as the feeding assembly 60. Specifically, the discharging assembly 70 comprises two second open-close rails 71 arranged at intervals, which are arranged substantially parallel to the horizontal plane, and the distance between the conveying rail 11 and the second open-close rail 71 gradually increases. Each second open-close rail 71 is substantially arc-shaped, and the convex sides of the two second open-close rails 71 are arranged opposite to each other, so that the two second open-close rails 71 are substantially hyperbolic. That is, the two second open-close rails 71 define a second passage 72, the two ends of which are large and the middle part of which is small.
[0068] In operation, in the process of moving the clamping member 12 from the middle part of the second passage 72 to the end part, as the guide wheels 124 move along the second open-close rail 71 from the middle part of the second passage 72 to the end part where the opening gradually increases, the extrusion force of the second open-close rail 71 on the guide wheels 124 gradually decreases. At this time, the annular elastic buckle 122 starts to play a role by relying on its own elastic restoring force, pushing the two guide wheels 124 away from each other, and then driving the two clamping parts 123 to gradually restore to a close state. At the same time, since the distance between the conveying rail 11 and the second open-close rail 71 gradually increases, the clamping part 123 is finally separated from the material 200, and the discharging work is completed.
[0069] Please refer to Figure 1 In the embodiment, the processing equipment 100 further comprises a base 80 and a lifting platform 90 arranged side by side with the base 80. The base 80 is provided with a first sliding rail 81, and a plurality of processing grooves 50 are movably arranged on the first sliding rail 81. The lifting platform 90 is provided with a second sliding rail 91, and the first sliding rail 81 can be used to dock the second sliding rail 91.
[0070] Specifically, when the processing tank 50 needs to be maintained or the processing requirements change, the old processing tank 50 can be slid through the first sliding rail 81 and moved to the lifting platform 90 through the second sliding rail 91, and then the new processing tank 50 is reloaded at the position of the old processing tank 50. In this way, while ensuring that the processing tank 50 can be maintained in time and effectively, the downtime of the equipment caused by the maintenance of the processing tank 50 is minimized, and the entire production process will not be delayed. Compared with the traditional processing equipment 100, which needs to be disassembled or stopped for a long time to maintain the processing tank 50, the design in the embodiment significantly improves the maintainability and production efficiency of the equipment, so that the equipment can run more continuously and stably, and meet the needs of large-scale production.
[0071] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In the embodiment, each processing tank 50 is provided with a movable limiting rod 51 on the side facing the base 80, and the base 80 is provided with a limiting groove (not shown in the figure), and the movable limiting rod 51 is movably arranged in the limiting groove. The movable limiting rod 51 moves in the limiting groove and can guide when the processing tank 50 slides or vibrates, ensuring the accurate position of the processing tank 50, so that the material 200 falls accurately into the processing tank 50, and improving the stability of the processing process.
[0072] In the embodiment, each processing tank 50 includes a tank body 52 and a spray pipe 53 arranged in the tank body 52. The spray pipe 53 includes a main spray pipe 531 and a side spray pipe 532 connected to the main spray pipe 531. The side spray pipe 532 is provided with a plurality of liquid spray holes 532a. During processing, the liquid is distributed to the side spray pipe 532 through the main spray pipe 531, and then sprayed to the material 200 at multiple angles and in all directions from the liquid spray holes 532a, ensuring that the processing liquid uniformly covers the surface of the material 200 and improving the processing quality. The number of side spray pipes 532, the size and angle of the liquid spray holes 532a, etc. can also be adjusted as needed to adapt to different materials 200 and process requirements.
[0073] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and not to limit it. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the concept and scope of the present application.
