[0043] In the following description, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of this disclosure. Therefore, the drawings and description are to be considered exemplary in nature and not restrictive.

[0044] In some related technologies, the support structure used to clamp workpieces usually has special application scenarios, low universality, and complex structural design and high cost.

[0045] Based on this, the present disclosure provides a bracket that adapts to workpieces of different sizes by sliding a slider on a slide rail, thereby enabling the bracket to provide reliable clamping function for workpieces of different sizes, keeping the workpiece stable during processing and debugging, and preventing vibration or movement.

[0046] Figure 1 ISO views of the brackets according to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the bracket 100 includes: a base 101; a horizontal guide rail 102, which is parallel to a first plane of the base 100; a first slider 103 and a second slider 104, which are located inside the horizontal guide rail 102 and can slide along the horizontal guide rail 102; a first connecting bracket 105 and a second connecting bracket 106, the first end of the first connecting bracket 105 and the first end of the second connecting bracket 106 being connected to the first slider 103 and the second slider 104 respectively; a first fixed guide rail 107, which is connected to the second end of the first connecting bracket 105; and a second fixed guide rail 108, which is connected to the second end of the second connecting bracket 106, wherein both the first fixed guide rail 107 and the second fixed guide rail 108 have clamping grooves extending along the length direction.

[0047] The bracket 100 adjusts the distance between the two connecting brackets and the two fixed guide rails by sliding the first slider 103 and the second slider 104 on the horizontal guide rail 102, which can accommodate workpieces of different sizes and enhance the applicability of the equipment. The clamping groove design of the first fixed guide rail 107 and the second fixed guide rail 108 simplifies the workpiece fixing operation and improves clamping efficiency. The stable support of the base 101 and the horizontal guide rail 102, together with the solid connection between the slider and the connecting bracket, ensures the reliability of the workpiece clamping process.

[0048] Therefore, the bracket 100 can provide reliable clamping function for workpieces of different sizes, keeping the workpiece stable during processing and debugging, and preventing vibration or movement.

[0049] According to some embodiments, the bracket is used to support the target workpiece, wherein the clamping groove of the first fixed guide rail and the clamping groove of the second fixed guide rail are used to clamp the opposite sides of the target workpiece respectively.

[0050] According to some embodiments, the target workpiece includes a PCB board.

[0051] In some embodiments, the target workpiece may also include other plate-type workpieces.

[0052] The bracket provided in this application can be used for clamping and supporting large PCBs, facilitating their functional debugging and soldering modifications, making it easier for engineering debugging personnel to use, and reducing damage to the PCB caused by careless movement during the debugging process.

[0053] By setting clamping grooves on the first and second fixed guide rails, reliable clamping of both sides of the PCB board can be achieved, thereby avoiding displacement or loosening of the PCB board during use and improving the operational stability of the bracket and the processing accuracy of the PCB board.

[0054] According to some embodiments, the bracket 100 further includes a ball bearing 109 for mounting the horizontal guide rail 102 on the base 101, such that the horizontal guide rail 102 can rotate on a first plane of the base 102 using the ball bearing 109.

[0055] By mounting the horizontal guide rail 102 on the base 101 and equipping it with ball bearings 109, the horizontal guide rail 102 can rotate within the first plane of the base 101, significantly improving the flexibility and adjustment range of the bracket 100. This structure facilitates multi-angle adjustment of the guide rail position to meet different working conditions.

[0056] According to some embodiments, the first slider 103 and the second slider 104 are located on both sides of the ball bearing 109. In some examples, the ball bearing 109 is located in the middle of the horizontal guide rail 102. Arranging the first slider 103 and the second slider 104 on both sides of the ball bearing 109 can effectively distribute the load and improve the structural stability of the bracket 100. At the same time, this arrangement further optimizes the sliding performance of the sliders, ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the adjustment process.

[0057] According to some embodiments, the bracket 100 further includes a first hinge mechanism 110 and a second hinge mechanism 111, wherein the first connecting bracket 105 is connected to the first slider 103 through the first hinge mechanism 110, and the second connecting bracket 106 is connected to the second slider 104 through the second hinge mechanism 111.

[0058] By setting a hinge mechanism between the first slider 103 and the second slider 104 and the corresponding connecting bracket, the bracket can provide a certain degree of angle adjustment while supporting the structure. When the bracket is used to support a PCB board, the vertical position of the PCB board can be changed, including rotation and translation, and the PCB board can be fixed at any angle, facilitating related operations by debugging personnel. This design not only improves the adaptability of the bracket but also further optimizes the cooperation effect of various components during clamping.

[0059] According to some embodiments, the bracket 100 further includes a spatial positioning shaft 112 disposed between the first connecting bracket 105 and the second connecting bracket 106.

[0060] By setting a spatial positioning shaft 112 between the first connecting bracket 105 and the second connecting bracket 106, the relative position of the two connecting brackets can be effectively limited during the operation of the bracket 100, ensuring the stability and reliability of the clamping structure, thereby preventing the bracket 100 from deforming or loosening due to external forces.

[0061] According to some embodiments, the spatial positioning shaft 112 includes: a sleeve 112-1, the first end of which is connected to a first connecting bracket 105; a compression spring 112-2 located inside the sleeve 112-1; and an inner shaft 112-3, the first end of which extends through the compression spring 112-2 into the interior of the sleeve 112-1, and the second end of which is connected to a second connecting bracket 106.

[0062] By incorporating a sleeve 112-1, a compression spring 112-2, and an inner shaft 112-3 within the spatial positioning shaft 112, a certain degree of elastic adjustment capability can be provided to the bracket, further mitigating external impacts or vibrations and improving the overall structure's seismic resistance and durability. Furthermore, the compression spring enables the spatial positioning shaft to possess a certain degree of self-adaptive function, making it suitable for connecting brackets of different sizes. This allows the bracket to adapt to workpieces of varying sizes, such as PCBs of different dimensions.

[0063] According to some embodiments, the bracket 100 further includes a third slider 113 and a fourth slider 114. Each of the third slider 113 and the fourth slider 114 has an opening slot on one side for accommodating the first fixed guide rail 107 and the second fixed guide rail 108, respectively. The first fixed guide rail 107 is hinged to the second end of the first connecting bracket 105 via the third slider 113, and the second fixed guide rail 108 is hinged to the second end of the second connecting bracket 106 via the fourth slider 114.

[0064] The hinged design of the third slider 113 and the fourth slider 114 with the fixed guide rail and connecting bracket enables multi-directional adjustment of the two fixed guide rails. In scenarios where the bracket supports a PCB board, the PCB board can rotate at any angle and move on a plane. The slotted openings on the third slider 113 and the fourth slider 114 facilitate quick installation and removal of the fixed guide rails, improving the operability and maintenance convenience of the bracket 100. Simultaneously, the hinged design enhances the overall structural flexibility and adaptability.

[0065] According to some embodiments, the bracket 100 further includes: a support leg ( Figure 1 (Not shown in the image), and is disposed on a second plane of the base 101 that is different from the first plane.

[0066] Adding support legs to the base can significantly enhance the stability of the stand, especially when used on complex terrain or uneven surfaces. The support legs provide additional support to prevent tipping or wobbling, further improving the overall performance of the stand.

[0067] Figure 2 This is a front view of a bracket according to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 3 and Figure 4 These are side and top views of brackets according to some embodiments of this disclosure.

[0068] like Figures 2-4 As shown, the horizontal guide rail 102 is mounted on the base 101 via ball bearings 109. The bracket 100 adjusts the distance between the two connecting brackets 105 and 106 by sliding the first slider 103 and the second slider 104 on the horizontal guide rail 102, thereby accommodating workpieces of different sizes and enhancing the applicability of the equipment. The hinged design of the third slider 113 and the fourth slider 114 with the fixed guide rail and connecting brackets enables multi-directional adjustment of the two fixed guide rails.

[0069] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the use of the bracket according to some embodiments of this disclosure. For example... Figure 5 As shown, the first fixed guide rail 107 and the second fixed guide rail 108 clamp the PCB board 501 using clamping slots. The synergistic effect between the base, horizontal guide rail, slider, connecting bracket and fixed guide rail enables the bracket to flexibly adjust the clamping width while maintaining structural stability, thus meeting the fixing requirements of PCB boards and other components.
