Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of circuit board processing technology, and in particular relates to an automated feeding and palletizing equipment for circuit boards. Background Technology

[0002] Circuit board stacking refers to the process of stacking circuit boards (PCBs) according to certain rules and methods to provide orderly material preparation for subsequent processing, testing, packaging and other processes. For example, in the testing process, stacked circuit boards can be sent into the testing equipment in sequence to improve testing efficiency; in the packaging process, neatly stacked circuit boards facilitate quick counting and packaging operations.

[0003] Circuit boards (PCBs) serve as the support for electronic components and the carrier for electrical connections. During production, with the use of assembly line processing, it's difficult for feeding devices to achieve continuous, uninterrupted feeding of PCBs. Changing hoppers or performing other operations requires pausing the equipment, leading to inefficient production processes and limited overall production efficiency. Furthermore, some devices lack PCB sorting capabilities, resulting in PCBs becoming disorganized during transport and stacking, hindering subsequent processing and handling. Therefore, an automated PCB feeding and stacking system is needed. This system employs an automatic stacking material preparation structure and a dual-hopper, uninterrupted feeding method to achieve continuous feeding and improve the automation level of PCB processing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an automated feeding and stacking material supply device for circuit boards. It adopts an automatic stacking material preparation structure and uses a dual-bin uninterrupted material supply method to achieve uninterrupted continuous material supply, thereby improving the automation level of circuit board processing and solving the above-mentioned technical problems.

A lifting cylinder is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the fixed box, and a lifting seat is fixedly connected to the output end of the lifting cylinder. A protective box is fixedly connected to the top of the surface of the fixed box. A sorting component is provided on the opposite side of the two protective boxes. The sorting component includes two tidying plates. Two fixed seats are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the protective box. A rotating rod is rotatably connected between the two fixed seats on the same side. A rotating arm is fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the rotating rod. The ends of the two rotating arms on the same side away from the fixed seats are fixedly connected to the tidying plates. A conveying component is provided on the right side of the rotating platform.

[0006] Preferably, the protective box is equipped with rotatable electric telescopic rods on both the front and rear sides, and a rotating plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod. The output end of the electric telescopic rod is rotatably connected to the rotating plate.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] In the following description, embodiments of the automated circuit board feeding and palletizing equipment of this utility model will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Figure 1-4This invention illustrates an embodiment of an automated circuit board feeding and palletizing device, comprising a rotating platform 1. A base 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating platform 1. Fixed boxes 3 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the base 2. A lifting cylinder 4 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the fixed box 3. A lifting seat 7 is fixedly connected to the output end of the lifting cylinder 4. A protective box 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the surface of the fixed box 3. A sorting component 6 is provided on each of the two protective boxes 5 facing away from each other. The sorting component 6 includes two tidying plates 61. Two fixed supports are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the protective boxes 5. A rotating rod 65 is rotatably connected between two fixed seats 62 on the same side. Rotating arms 63 are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the rotating rod 65. Rotatable electric telescopic rods 64 are installed on the front and rear sides of the protective box 5. A rotating plate 66 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod 65. The output end of the electric telescopic rod 64 is rotatably connected to the rotating plate 66. Through the cooperation of the electric telescopic rod 64 and the rotating plate 66, the rotating rod 65 is pushed and pulled, allowing it to rotate. Under the transmission action of the rotating arms 63, the rotating rod 65 moves along the alignment plate 61. The opening and closing of the rotating platform 1 ensures that the circuit boards inside the protective box 5 are neatly arranged and protected. The ends of the two rotating arms 63 on the same side, away from the fixed base 62, are fixedly connected to the tidying plate 61. A conveying assembly 8 is located on the right side of the rotating platform 1. The conveying assembly 8 includes a fixed frame 81, with a sliding frame 82 slidably connected to the inner cavity of the fixed frame 81. A horizontal cylinder 85 is fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the fixed frame 81, and the output end of the horizontal cylinder 85 is fixedly connected to the sliding frame 82. Multiple conveying rollers 83 are installed in both the inner cavities of the fixed frame 81 and the sliding frame 82. A conveyor belt is fitted onto the surface of the conveyor roller 83. A stepper motor 84 is installed in the inner cavity of the fixed frame 81. The output shaft of the stepper motor 84 is fixedly connected to the conveyor roller 83 located in the middle. Through the arrangement of the conveyor assembly 8, the stepper motor 84 and the conveyor roller 83 work together to drive the conveyor belt. At the same time, the sliding frame 82 and the horizontal cylinder 85 work together to adjust the conveying position of the circuit board. This allows the sliding frame 82 to avoid the alignment plate 61 during opening and closing, thus preventing the sliding frame 82 from colliding with the alignment plate 61.

[0024] Working Principle: In use, the user rotates the base 2 via the rotating platform 1. The stepper motor 84 and conveyor roller 83 work together to rotate the conveyor belt, transporting the circuit board. The horizontal cylinder 85 pushes the sliding frame 82 forward, allowing the circuit board to reach the inner cavity of the protective box 5 and the top of the lifting seat 7. The arrival information is detected by a photoelectric sensor, and the programmable controller automatically lowers the lifting cylinder 4, causing it to descend intermittently until it retracts to its lowest position. This allows the circuit board to be stacked on top of the lifting seat 7. Then, the horizontal cylinder 85 retracts, driving the sliding frame... 82 is reset into the inner cavity of the fixed frame 81. At this time, the electric telescopic rod 64 is activated and pushes the rotating plate 66, causing the rotating rod 65 to drive the two rotating arms 63 to rotate, thereby causing the alignment plate 61 to cover the side of the protective box 5. At the same time, the circuit boards located in the inner cavity of the protective box 5 are squeezed and aligned. At this time, the rotating platform 1 rotates, causing the two protective boxes 5 to interchange positions, so that the full protective box 5 moves to the left and the empty protective box 5 moves to the right. The lifting cylinder 4 under the full protective box 5 intermittently lifts upward to feed the circuit boards. The circuit boards are picked up by the suction cup robot. The empty protective box 5 is loaded with circuit boards simultaneously.

[0025] In summary, this automated circuit board feeding and palletizing equipment, through the conveying component 8, transports the circuit boards to the top of the lifting seat 7. Then, through the sorting component 6, the circuit boards in the inner cavity of the protective box 5 are neatly arranged. Finally, with the cooperation of the rotating platform 1, the base 2, and the fixed box 3, the positions of the two protective boxes 5 are interchanged, thereby achieving the purpose of automatic stacking and uninterrupted continuous feeding.
