Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of copper clad laminate measurement technology, and in particular to a copper clad laminate thickness measurement device. Background Technology
[0002] Copper clad laminate (CCL) is a basic material used in the manufacture of printed circuit boards (PCBs). It is made by impregnating electronic fiberglass cloth or other reinforcing materials with resin and covering one or both sides with copper foil, followed by hot pressing. CCL plays a crucial role in the manufacturing process of PCBs, with its main functions including interconnection, insulation, and support. Its performance, quality, as well as the processability, manufacturing level, manufacturing cost, and long-term reliability and stability, largely determine the performance of the PCB.
[0003] Currently, the thickness of copper clad laminates is mostly measured manually using a handheld thickness gauge. This method is inefficient, and the thickness of the copper clad laminate needs to be measured at multiple points. However, manual operation is prone to errors, and it is difficult to ensure that the probe is always perpendicular to the board surface during multi-point measurement, which can easily lead to measurement deviations and impracticality. Therefore, we propose a copper clad laminate thickness measurement device. Utility Model Content

Currently, when measuring the thickness of copper-clad laminates, most measurements are done manually using a handheld thickness gauge. This method is inefficient, and the thickness of the copper-clad laminate requires multiple measurements at multiple points.

[0012] The technical effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the levelness of the base can be adjusted by rotating the adjustable feet, thereby improving the measurement accuracy.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a limiting groove is formed on the front of the housing and around the connecting block, and the connecting block is slidably connected to the limiting groove.
[0014] The technical effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the limiting groove can limit the movement of the connecting block, prevent it from deviating, and improve the stability and measurement accuracy.
[0015] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the moving component includes an electric lead screw, which is fixedly connected to a support base. A connecting slider is sleeved around the electric lead screw and located at the bottom of the housing. The connecting slider is fixedly connected to the housing. The electric lead screw is electrically connected to the control panel.
[0016] The technical effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the electric lead screw can drive the housing to move left and right through the connecting slider, and in conjunction with the electric slider, it can drive the housing to move back and forth, thereby achieving the purpose of comprehensive measurement of copper-clad laminate and improving ease of use.
[0017] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the buffer assembly includes a sleeve, which is fixedly connected to the connecting block. A sliding rod is slidably connected inside the sleeve, and a spring is fixedly connected inside the sleeve and at the top of the sliding rod.
[0018] The technical effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the spring can buffer the retraction of the slide rod, prevent the electric push rod from applying too much pressure, which could damage the copper-clad laminate and the measuring probe, and improve the stability of use.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0020] In this invention, through the design of the base and measuring mechanism, the measuring probe is moved back and forth by an electric slider, and moved left and right by an electric lead screw, thereby achieving the purpose of comprehensive measurement of copper-clad laminate. This replaces the traditional manual handheld measurement method, greatly improving measurement efficiency. Moreover, compared with manual measurement, this device is more stable and can keep the measuring probe perpendicular to the copper-clad laminate, effectively improving practicality.

[0029] Example 1
[0030] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a copper-clad laminate thickness measuring device, including a base 1, a measuring mechanism 2 installed at the top of the base 1, symmetrically arranged sliding grooves 101 on the left and right sides of the base 1, an electric slider 102 slidably connected inside the sliding grooves 101, a support seat 103 installed at the top of the electric slider 102, the measuring mechanism 2 including a housing 201, a moving component 202 installed at the bottom of the housing 201, a thickness gauge 203 installed inside the housing 201 near the back, an electric push rod 204 with its output end facing the bottom installed inside the housing 201 near the front, a connecting block 205 installed at the output end of the electric push rod 204, a buffer component 206 installed at the bottom of the connecting block 205, a measuring probe 207 installed at the bottom of the buffer component 206, the measuring probe 207 being electrically connected to the thickness gauge 203 so as to transmit the measured data to the thickness gauge 203 for analysis.
[0031] Example 2
[0032] like Figure 1-3As shown, a control panel 104 is mounted on the front of the base 1. The electric slider 102, thickness gauge 203, and electric push rod 204 are all electrically connected to the control panel 104. The control panel 104 allows simultaneous operation of the electric slider 102, thickness gauge 203, and electric push rod 204, improving ease of use. The thickness gauge 203, through its electrical connection to the control panel 104, transmits measured data to the control panel 104 for display. Adjustable feet 105 are installed near the four corners of the bottom of the base 1. Rotating the adjustable feet 105 adjusts the levelness of the base 1, improving measurement accuracy. A limit groove 2011 is formed on the front of the housing 201, around the connecting block 205. The connecting block 205 slides in the limit groove 2011, limiting the movement of the connecting block 205 to prevent deviation and improve stability and measurement accuracy. The moving component 202 includes an electric lead screw 2021. The movable lead screw 2021 is fixedly connected to the support base 103. A connecting slider 2022 is sleeved on the periphery of the electric lead screw 2021 and located at the bottom of the housing 201. The connecting slider 2022 is fixedly connected to the housing 201. The electric lead screw 2021 is electrically connected to the control panel 104. The electric lead screw 2021 can drive the housing 201 to move left and right through the connecting slider 2022. In conjunction with the electric slider 102, it can drive the housing 201 to move back and forth, thereby achieving the purpose of comprehensive measurement of the copper-clad laminate and improving ease of use. The buffer assembly 206 includes a sleeve 2061, which is fixedly connected to the connecting block 205. A slide rod 2062 is slidably connected inside the sleeve 2061. A spring 2063 is fixedly connected inside the sleeve 2061 and located at the top of the slide rod 2062. The spring 2063 can buffer the contraction of the slide rod 2062 to prevent the electric push rod 204 from pressing too hard, which could damage the copper-clad laminate and the measuring probe 207 and improve the stability of use.
[0033] The working process of this utility model is as follows: When using a copper-clad laminate thickness measuring device to measure the thickness of a copper-clad laminate, the copper-clad laminate is first placed on the top of the base 1. The control panel 104 controls the electric push rod 204 to push the connecting block 205 to extend, thereby causing the connecting block 205 to drive the measuring probe 207 to be vertically and tightly attached to the surface of the copper-clad laminate for measurement, preventing measurement errors and effectively improving practicality. During the process, the spring 2063 can buffer the pressing force of the electric push rod 204 to prevent damage to the copper-clad laminate and the measuring probe 207. The measured data information is transmitted to the thickness gauge 203 for analysis through the measuring probe 207, and the thickness gauge 203 transmits the analyzed data to the control panel 104 for display, completing the entire measurement process. After one measurement is completed, the electric slider 102 drives the measuring probe 207 to move back and forth, and the electric lead screw 2021 drives the measuring probe 207 to move left and right, which can achieve the purpose of comprehensive measurement of the copper-clad laminate, replacing the traditional manual hand measurement method and greatly improving measurement efficiency.
