[0002] A PCB drilling machine is a specialized piece of equipment used to process PCBs (printed circuit boards). It is mainly used to drill holes in the circuit boards and is a key piece of equipment in the PCB manufacturing process. The cutter head is a key component of the PCB drilling machine, used to install and fix the drill bit to achieve precise drilling on the circuit board.
[0003] In the PCB industry, 50-bit drill bit cutter heads are commonly used in PCB drilling machines for high-precision drilling of PCB boards. With the rapid development of the PCB industry, the requirements for drilling quality and efficiency are becoming increasingly stringent. 50-bit drill bit cutter heads can achieve denser and more precise drilling, but this also places higher demands on their recovery and transportation processes to ensure the integrity of the cutter head and drill bits, thereby improving production efficiency.
[0004] Currently, during the process of recovering the cutter heads to the sorting equipment, the cutter heads are usually picked up manually and stacked in boxes or cartons before being transferred to the sorting equipment for drill bit sorting. However, this method of stacking and boxing the cutter heads is prone to errors during manual operation, causing the drill shanks of the upper and lower layers of drill bits to collide with the cutting edges of the drill bits, damaging the drill bits, which is not conducive to the recovery of the cutter heads and drill bits, and affects production efficiency.

[0027] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,in, Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the cutter head loading basket provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 The cutter head loading basket contains a row of cutter heads.
[0028] The cutter head loading basket of this application embodiment includes: a loading basket body 10, which is a rectangular basket body with a bottom basket portion 11 and a side basket portion 12. The side basket portion 12 is disposed on the bottom basket portion 11 and is the side basket around the loading basket body 10. The top opening of the loading basket body 10 serves as the placement entrance for the cutter head. The bottom basket portion 11 is provided with at least one partition 13 in a first direction (i.e., the length direction of the loading basket body 10). The bottom basket portion 11, the side basket portion 12, and the partition 13 form a plurality of cutter head loading cavities in the loading basket body 10, and each cutter head loading cavity has a plurality of cutter head loading positions.
[0029] In this embodiment, the loading basket 10 can be made of plastic, which has a certain degree of rigidity; the height of the side basket portion 12 of the loading basket 10 can be equal to or higher than the height of the cutter head.
[0030] The length of the partition 13 can be equivalent to or slightly shorter than the length of the side basket portion 12 in the length direction of the loading basket 10; the height of the partition 13 should be able to block the cutter discs placed in adjacent cutter disc loading cavities.
[0031] The cutter head loading cavity is the loading cavity of the loading basket 10 in the length direction. Each cutter head loading cavity has multiple cutter head loading positions. One cutter head loading position corresponds to loading one cutter head. The size of the cutter head loading position matches the size of the cutter head. In the cutter head loading basket, the cutter head is loaded in a flat manner.
[0032] For example, in this embodiment, the bottom basket portion 11 is provided with five spaced partitions 13 in the first direction. The bottom basket portion 11, the side basket portion 12 and the five partitions 13 form six cutter disc loading cavities on the loading basket body 10, and each cutter disc loading cavity has six cutter disc loading positions.
[0033] The cutter head loading basket is equipped with six cutter head loading chambers, each with six cutter head loading positions. This means the cutter head loading basket can hold 6*6 cutter heads, meeting the capacity requirement of 6 cutter heads per processing axis of a PCB drilling machine. This achieves a one-to-one relationship between a single cutter head loading basket and a single PCB drilling machine, which is more conducive to the recycling and management of cutter heads.
[0034] In other embodiments, the cutter head loading basket may be provided with other numbers of cutter head loading cavities and cutter head loading positions, and other numbers of cutter head loading cavities and cutter head loading positions that may be provided with the cutter head loading basket will not be listed here.
[0035] The cutter head loading basket of this application embodiment has a bottom basket portion 11 and a side basket portion 12. The top opening of the loading basket 10 serves as the placement entrance for placing the cutter head in the loading basket. At least one partition 13 is provided on the bottom basket portion 11 of the loading basket 10. The bottom basket portion 11, the side basket portion 12, and the partition 13 form multiple cutter head loading cavities in the loading basket 10. Each cutter head loading cavity has multiple cutter head loading positions, and one cutter head loading position corresponds to loading one cutter head. In use, the cutter head loading basket can load a large number of cutter heads and can be loaded in a flat manner without stacking. This fully protects the drill bit from damage, facilitates the recycling of the cutter head and drill bit, and improves production efficiency.
[0036] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, one side of the loading basket 10 in the first direction is provided as a movable baffle 14. The movable baffle 14 is used to open or close the side opening of the loading basket 10 at the corresponding position. The movable baffle 14 can facilitate the loading and unloading of the cutter disc. For example, when it is necessary to remove the cutter disc loaded in the cutter disc loading basket, the cutter disc loading basket can be tilted on the table, and the side opening of the loading basket 10 can be opened by the movable baffle 14, so that the cutter disc in the cutter disc loading basket slides onto the table.
[0037] In other embodiments, one side basket portion 12 of the loading basket 10, which is configured as a movable baffle 14, may not be configured as a movable baffle 14, and may adopt the same side basket structure as other side basket portions 12.
[0038] In one embodiment, the movable baffle 14 is slidably disposed on the side baskets 12 on both sides of the movable baffle 14. The movable baffle 14, which is slidably disposed on both sides of the movable baffle 14, can facilitate the use and operation of the movable baffle 14.
[0039] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the movable baffle 14 may also adopt other movable structures. For example, it may adopt a movable connection structure that flips and connects with the bottom basket 11. Here, other movable structures that the movable baffle 14 may adopt will not be listed one by one.
[0040] Alternatively, each side basket portion 12 on both sides of the movable baffle 14 is provided with a groove 121 near the end of the movable baffle 14. The movable baffle 14 slides up and down in the groove 121 of the side basket portion 12 on both sides of the movable baffle 14. The structure of the groove 121 makes it easier to use and operate the movable baffle 14. Furthermore, the groove 121 is hidden inside the side basket portion 12 on both sides of the movable baffle 14 and does not use an exposed connection structure, thus maintaining the simplicity of the loading basket 10 structure.
[0041] Preferably, the sliding grooves 121 on both sides of the movable baffle 14 are provided with limiting grooves, and both sides of the movable baffle 14 are provided with locking protrusions 141 that match the limiting grooves. See [reference] Figure 1 The limiting slot and the locking protrusion 141 are cylindrical. It is understood that in other embodiments, the limiting slot and the locking protrusion 141 may also adopt other shapes, such as rectangular prisms or square blocks, as long as the shape and structure of the limiting slot and the locking protrusion 141 can play the role of locking.
[0042] The setting of the limiting slot and the locking protrusion 141 can prevent the movable baffle 14 from accidentally sliding out or opening the side opening due to external force bending during the use of the cutter head loading basket, thereby preventing the cutter head loaded in the cutter head loading basket from slipping or falling off.
[0043] Optionally, a limiting protrusion 111 is provided on the bottom basket 11 at the position corresponding to the movable baffle 14. The upper limit protrusion 111 in the first direction corresponds to the position of the partition 13, that is, the upper limit protrusion 111 in the first direction is flush with the partition 13. The setting of the limiting protrusion 111 can prevent the movable baffle 14 from sliding down completely to the bottom basket 11 of the loading basket 10.
[0044] Preferably, a flow strip 15 is provided on the bottom basket 11 along the first direction. When the cutter disc is loaded into the cutter disc loading basket, the cutter disc is placed on the flow strip 15 of the bottom basket 11 of the loading basket body 10. The flow strip 15 is extremely convenient for loading and unloading the cutter disc, especially for unloading the cutter disc. When it is necessary to remove the cutter disc loaded in the cutter disc loading basket, it is only necessary to tilt the cutter disc loading basket to the table and open the side opening of the loading basket body 10 through the movable baffle 14. Without the action of external force, the cutter disc in the cutter disc loading basket can slide down onto the table.
[0045] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the partition 13 is detachably mounted on the bottom basket 11. The detachable nature of the partition 13 facilitates its replacement and disassembly.
[0046] In one embodiment, at least one handle 16 is provided on the side basket portion 12 of the loading basket 10, and the handle 16 facilitates the use of the cutter head loading basket.
[0047] In one embodiment, the side basket portion 12 of the loading basket 10 is also provided with reinforcing ribs (not shown in the figure). The reinforcing ribs improve the strength of the cutter head loading basket and ensure the loading effect and use effect of the cutter head loading basket.
[0048] In all the above embodiments, "large" and "small" are relative terms, "more" and "less" are relative terms, and "upper" and "lower" are relative terms. The embodiments of this application will not elaborate further on the expression of such relative terms.
