[0030] Please see Figures 1-5 A buffer mechanism for a single-track PCB board buffer machine includes a frame 1, on which a buffer assembly is mounted. The buffer assembly includes a drive frame 2 and a placement frame 3. The drive frame 2 is slidably connected to the frame 1, and the placement frame 3 is slidably connected to the drive frame 2. A motor 4 is mounted on the frame 1. A placement plate 5 is detachably mounted on the placement frame 3. Placement slots 6 are evenly distributed on the placement plate 5. A control assembly is provided between the placement frame 3 and the placement plate 5. The control assembly is used to control the locking of the placement plate 5 and the placement frame 3. The control assembly includes a clamping sleeve 7 and a moving ring 8. The clamping sleeve 7 is mounted on the placement frame 3, and the moving ring 8 is slidably connected to the clamping sleeve 7. A first spring 9 is connected between the moving ring 8 and the clamping sleeve 7.

[0031] The output end of the motor 4 is connected to a threaded rod 10, which is threadedly connected to the drive frame 2.

[0032] A guide rod 11 is installed on the frame 1, and the drive frame 2 is slidably connected to the guide rod 11.

[0033] A movable rod 12 is connected to the movable ring 8, a movable block 13 is connected to the movable rod 12, and an abutment block 14 is connected to one end of the movable rod 12.

[0034] A control ring 15 is rotatably connected to the clamping sleeve 7. The control ring 15 has a control groove 16 and a through groove 17. The control groove 16 is connected to the through groove 17. The control groove 16 is adapted to the moving rod 12, and the through groove 17 is adapted to the moving block 13.

[0035] In this embodiment, the plate 24 is slidably installed along the placement groove 6 on the placement plate 5. When it needs to be moved to a higher position, the motor 4 drives the threaded rod 10 at the output end to rotate, thereby driving the drive frame 2 on the threaded rod 10 to slide along the guide rod 11, so that it slides to the appropriate position, completing the movement of the plate 24. Since the plate 24 has different thicknesses, the placement plate 5 needs to be replaced to accommodate plates 24 of different thicknesses. The motor 4 drives the placement frame 3 to descend to the maintenance position. At this time, when the moving block 13 aligns and passes through the groove 17, the moving ring 8 can be axially displaced. After rotating the control ring 15 so that the control groove 16 is engaged with the moving rod 12, the moving ring 8 is axially displaced. Locking, the moving ring 8 is slidably moved along the clamping sleeve 7, so that the first spring 9 between the moving ring 8 and the clamping sleeve 7 is compressed during the sliding movement, causing the moving rod 12, the moving block 13 and the abutment block 14 on it to move. When the moving block 13 passes through the through groove 17, the control ring 15 is rotated, and when the moving block 13 moves away from the through groove 17, the moving ring 8 is released, so that under the action of the elastic potential energy of the first spring 9, one end of the moving block 13 abuts against one end of the control ring 15, thereby completing the fixation of the moving ring 8. When the moving ring 8 is moved, one end of the moving rod 12 is moved out of the control sleeve 18, thereby releasing the fixation of the control sleeve 18.

[0036] Please see Figure 4-5 As a method of implementing a single-track PCB board buffer mechanism for fastening components: a fastening component is provided on the clamping sleeve 7. The fastening component includes a control sleeve 18 and a flow groove 19. The control sleeve 18 is rotatably connected to the clamping sleeve 7. The flow groove 19 is opened on the control sleeve 18. One end of the control sleeve 18 abuts against the abutting block 14. A clamping block 20 is rotatably connected on the clamping sleeve 7. The clamping block 20 is adapted to the flow groove 19. The outer side of the clamping block 20 abuts against the inner side of the control sleeve 18.

[0037] A second spring 21 is provided between the clamping block 20 and the clamping sleeve 7, and a clamping rod 22 is provided on the placement plate 5.

[0038] The clamping rod 22 has a clamping groove 23, which is adapted to the clamping block 20. The plate 24 is placed on the placement groove 6.

[0039] More specifically, after releasing the fixation of the control sleeve 18, the control sleeve 18 is rotated along the clamping sleeve 7. When the control sleeve 18 rotates, the flow groove 19 on the control sleeve 18 is adjusted to be aligned with the clamping block 20, thereby releasing the contact with the clamping block 20. At this time, the clamping sleeve 7 is slid along the clamping rod 22. When the clamping sleeve 7 moves, under the action of the elastic potential energy of the second spring 21, one end of the clamping block 20 is moved out of the clamping groove 23. At this time, the placement rack 3 is slid out along the clamping rod 22. Different placement racks 3 can be slid along the clamping rod 22 to make the placement rack 3 close to the placement plate 5. Then, the above operation is repeated in reverse to complete the fixation of the new placement rack 3.

[0040] In summary, during use or operation of the overall equipment: the plate 24 is slidably moved and installed along the placement groove 6 on the placement plate 5. When it needs to be moved to a higher position, the motor 4 drives the threaded rod 10 at the output end to rotate, thereby causing the drive frame 2 on the threaded rod 10 to slide along the guide rod 11 until it slides to the appropriate position, completing the movement of the plate 24. Since the plate 24 has different thicknesses, the placement plate 5 needs to be replaced to accommodate plates of different thicknesses. The motor 4 drives the placement frame 3 to descend to the maintenance position. At this time, when the moving block 13 aligns and passes through the groove 17, the moving ring 8 can be axially displaced. After rotating the control ring 15 so that the control groove 16 engages with the moving rod 12, the movement is completed. Ring 8 is axially locked. The movable ring 8 slides along the clamping sleeve 7, which compresses the first spring 9 between the movable ring 8 and the clamping sleeve 7 during the sliding movement. This causes the movable rod 12, movable block 13, and abutment block 14 on it to move. When the movable block 13 passes through the through groove 17, the control ring 15 is rotated. When the movable block 13 moves away from the through groove 17, the movable ring 8 is released. Under the action of the elastic potential energy of the first spring 9, one end of the movable block 13 abuts against one end of the control ring 15, thereby fixing the movable ring 8. When the movable ring 8 is moved, one end of the movable rod 12 is moved out of the control sleeve 18, thereby releasing the fixation of the control sleeve 18.

[0041] After releasing the control sleeve 18, rotate the control sleeve 18 along the clamping sleeve 7. When the control sleeve 18 rotates, adjust the flow groove 19 on the control sleeve 18 to be aligned with the clamping block 20, thereby releasing the contact with the clamping block 20. At this time, slide the clamping sleeve 7 along the clamping rod 22. When the clamping sleeve 7 moves, under the action of the elastic potential energy of the second spring 21, drive one end of the clamping block 20 to move out of the clamping groove 23. At this time, slide the placement rack 3 along the clamping rod 22 to move it out. Different placement racks 3 can be slid along the clamping rod 22 to make the placement rack 3 close to the placement plate 5. Then repeat the above operation in reverse to complete the fixing of the new placement rack 3.

[0042] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
