[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0026] refer to Figure 1-5 A punch press frame 1 is set up, and a transmission slide rail 11 is set on the punch press frame 1. The placement structure on the punch press frame 1 can feed materials along the transmission slide rail 11. A feeding end 2 and a punching end 3 are arranged sequentially along the length direction of the transmission slide rail 11. The material is fed through the feeding end 2 and transported to the punching end 3 for processing. After processing, the material is inserted into the external placement plate at the punching end 3 for unloading. A cleaning end 4 is set below the punching end 3. The cleaning end 4 can remove dust from the surface during the punching process.

[0027] refer to Figure 1-5 The stamping end 3 includes a stamping support column 31 and a stamping head 32 disposed above the stamping support column 31. The stamping head 32 has a flat surface and can perform stamping operations on the product. A stamping insert 33 is fixedly connected to the end of the stamping head 32. The surface of the stamping insert 33 is provided with a groove that can fit into the product when the mold is opened, and can drive the product to rise. A stamping cylinder 34 is fixedly connected to the top of the stamping support column 11. The piston rod end of the stamping cylinder 34 is fixedly connected to the stamping head 32. The stamping head 32 is pushed out by the stamping cylinder 34 and pressed onto the product to perform the punching process.

[0028] refer to Figure 1-5A sliding base 21 is slidably connected to the transmission slide rail 11. The sliding base 21 is respectively set at the feeding end 2 and the stamping end 3. A waste recycling port 22 is opened on the sliding base 21 to ensure that the waste on its surface falls to the waste recycling end for recycling. A sliding pressure plate 23 is fixedly connected to the sliding base 21. A positioning support rod 24 is fixedly connected to the waste recycling port 22. Several positioning pins 25 are fixedly connected to the positioning support rod 24. The positioning pins 25 can position the tray. A tray support frame 35 is fixedly connected to one side of the sliding base 21. Several tray positioning blocks 351 are fixedly connected to the tray support frame 35. Several adsorption grooves 352 are opened on the surface of the tray support frame 35. Adsorption nozzles 353 are fixedly connected in the adsorption grooves 352 for adsorption and fixation.

[0029] refer to Figure 1-5 The cleaning end 4 includes a dust suction port 41 located between two stamping support columns 31. The dust suction port 41 is equipped with an external dust suction device. A waste recycling box 42 is located below the punching machine frame 1. Waste generated during the punching process will fall into the waste recycling box 42. The bottom of the waste recycling box 42 is connected to a waste flow line 43. The transmission direction of the waste flow line 43 is perpendicular to the length direction of the transmission slide rail 11. When the waste recycling box 42 is full, it will be transported and unloaded through the waste flow line 43.

[0030] The working principle of this mechanism is as follows: When performing the punching operation of FPC sheet, the sheet is placed on the sliding base 21, and the sheet and the positioning pin 25 on the sliding base 21 are matched and fixed. The sheet is transported to the lower part of the punching end 3 by external electric drive. The punching head 32 of the punching end 3 punches downward and punches the surface of the sheet. During the punching process, the tray is loaded by an external feeding mechanism and loaded onto the tray support frame 35 and fixed by the suction nozzle 353. After the punching is completed, the FPC sheet will be transported to the upper displacement along with the upper die punching head 32. At this time, the position of the lower sliding base 21 is adjusted so that the tray support frame 35 is aligned directly below the punching head 32. The punched FPC sheet is then manually unloaded and placed on the tray to complete the punching process.

[0031] The above embodiments are used to further illustrate the present invention, but do not limit the present invention to these specific embodiments. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be understood as being within the protection scope of the present invention.
