Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of PCB board stacking, specifically a feeding component for an automatic PCB board stacking equipment. Background Technology

[0002] A PCB, or Printed Circuit Board, is an indispensable basic component in modern electronic devices, undertaking the crucial tasks of connecting, supporting, and protecting electronic components.

[0003] PCBs are typically multi-layered, and the materials used in multi-layered PCBs vary. When making high-multilayer PCBs, the PCBs need to be stacked to achieve the desired number of layers.

[0004] When the PCB boards are stacked, the AGV trolley transports the PCB boards to the designated position. The loading section drives the substrate and the PCB boards placed on the substrate to rise to a designated height, so that the stacking assembly can pick up the PCB boards.

[0005] When the loading section performs this action, a lifting unit usually lifts the PCB board on the AGV trolley to the top, where it is then picked up by a suction cup. After the PCB board is picked up, the lifting unit lowers again to load the PCB board on the next AGV trolley. During the process of the suction cup picking up the PCB board, the PCB board is always placed on the loading section. The loading section cannot start the next operation after the PCB board is not picked up, which affects the loading cycle and loading speed of the loading section. Utility Model Content

[0006] Purpose of the utility model: To provide a feeding component for an automatic PCB board stacking equipment to solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art.

[0007] Technical solution: A feeding assembly for an automatic PCB board stacking equipment, comprising:

[0008] Enclosure;

[0009] It also includes a feeding unit and a limiting unit disposed within the housing;

[0010] The limiting unit is designed in two sets, symmetrically installed inside the housing, each set including:

[0011] Two sets of limiting connecting blocks are designed and installed inside the housing;

[0012] A limiting baffle is hinged to the limiting connecting block;

[0013] The driving component is installed inside the housing and hinged to the limiting baffle, driving the limiting baffle to a horizontal or vertical state.

[0014] This invention features a limiting unit designed above the feeding unit. The driving component of the limiting unit drives the limiting baffle to a horizontal position, supporting the PCB board fed by the feeding unit. While supporting the PCB board, the feeding unit can start feeding a new PCB board. During this process, a suction cup adsorbs the PCB board on the limiting unit, completing the feeding. Throughout the process, the feeding unit has a faster feeding cycle and higher efficiency.

[0015] In a further embodiment, the driving element includes a limiting cylinder;

[0016] The limiting cylinder is hinged inside the cover, and the output end of the limiting cylinder is hinged to the side of the limiting baffle near the limiting connecting block.

[0017] By designing a limit cylinder to drive a limit baffle to achieve a horizontal or vertical state, the limit baffle can support the PCB board when it is horizontal. When it is vertical, the feeding unit moves the PCB board above the limit baffle, and the limit baffle changes its state to support the PCB board again, thus completing the feeding process.

[0018] In a further embodiment, the feeding unit is designed in two sets, symmetrically arranged inside the housing, each set including:

[0019] Two sets of feeding guide rods are designed and installed inside the housing;

[0020] The feeding screw is inserted into the cover;

[0021] A feeding motor is installed inside the housing, and its output end is connected to the feeding lead screw.

[0022] The feeding slide plate is sleeved on the feeding screw and the feeding guide rod.

[0023] The PCB board is lifted by a feeding unit to complete the feeding process.

[0024] In a further embodiment, feeding arms are installed at both ends of the feeding slide plate.

[0025] In a further embodiment, the limiting baffle is located at a predetermined height of the feeding screw.

[0026] The length of the limiting baffle is less than the distance between the two sets of feeding arms, so that the feeding arms can move above the limiting baffle after passing through the limiting baffle.

[0027] Beneficial effects: This utility model discloses a feeding component for an automatic PCB board stacking equipment. This utility model designs a limiting unit above the feeding unit. The driving component of the limiting unit drives the limiting baffle to a horizontal state to support the PCB board fed by the feeding unit. While supporting the PCB board, the feeding unit can start feeding a new PCB board. During the process of the feeding unit starting to feed a new PCB board, the suction cup adsorbs the PCB board on the limiting unit to complete the feeding. In the whole process, the feeding unit has a faster feeding cycle and higher efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0034] This application relates to a feeding component for an automatic PCB board stacking equipment, which will be explained in detail below through specific embodiments.

[0035] A feeding assembly for an automated PCB stacking device includes:

[0036] A housing, comprising a feeding unit 31 and a limiting unit 32 disposed within the housing;

[0037] The limiting unit 32 is designed in two sets, symmetrically installed inside the cover, each set including:

[0038] Two sets of limiting connecting blocks 321 are designed and installed inside the housing;

[0039] The limiting baffle 322 is hinged to the limiting connecting block 321;

[0040] The driving component is installed inside the housing and hinged to the limiting baffle 322, which drives the limiting baffle 322 to be in a horizontal or vertical state.

[0041] This invention features a limiting unit 32 above the feeding unit 31. The driving component of the limiting unit 32 drives the limiting baffle 322 to a horizontal position, supporting the PCB board fed by the feeding unit 31. While supporting the PCB board, the feeding unit 31 can start feeding a new PCB board. During this process, a suction cup adsorbs the PCB board on the limiting unit 32, completing the feeding. Throughout the process, the feeding unit 31 has a faster feeding cycle and higher efficiency.

[0042] The driving component includes a limiting cylinder 323;

[0043] The limiting cylinder 323 is hinged inside the cover, and the output end of the limiting cylinder 323 is hinged to the side of the limiting baffle 322 near the limiting connecting block 321.

[0044] By designing a limit cylinder 323 to drive the limit baffle 322 to achieve a horizontal or vertical state, when the limit baffle 322 is horizontal, it can support the PCB board. When the limit baffle 322 is vertical, the feeding unit 31 drives the PCB board to move above the limit baffle 322. The limit baffle 322 changes state and supports the PCB board again, thus completing the feeding work.

[0045] The feeding unit 31 is designed in two sets, symmetrically arranged inside the housing, each set including:

[0046] Two sets of feeding guide rods 311 are designed and installed inside the housing;

[0047] The feeding screw 312 is inserted into the cover;

[0048] The feeding motor 313 is installed inside the housing, and its output end is connected to the feeding screw 312 for transmission.

[0049] The feeding slide plate 314 is sleeved on the feeding screw 312 and the feeding guide rod 311.

[0050] The PCB board is lifted by the feeding unit 31 to complete the feeding of the PCB board.

[0051] The loading slide plate 314 is equipped with loading arms 315 at both ends.

[0052] The limiting baffle 322 is located at a predetermined height of the feeding screw 312.

[0053] The length of the limiting baffle 322 is less than the distance between the two sets of feeding arms 315, so that the feeding arms 315 can move above the limiting baffle 322 through the limiting baffle 322.

[0054] Working principle description: During operation, the limit baffle 322 is in a vertical state. The feeding motor 313 drives the feeding screw 312 to rotate, which in turn drives the feeding slide plate 314 to rise and fall along the feeding guide rod 311. This, in turn, drives the feeding arm 315 to support the PCB board on the AGV trolley, completing the upward movement. When the PCB board is higher than the limit baffle 322, the limit cylinder 323 drives the limit baffle 322 to move to a horizontal state. At this time, when the lifting slide plate descends, the limit baffle 322 supports the PCB board for the suction cup to pick up. At this time, the lifting slide plate can continue to perform the feeding operation.

[0055] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention, various equivalent transformations can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such equivalent transformations fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
