Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of PCB circuit board technology, and in particular relates to a flexible circuit board clamp. Background Technology

[0002] Circuit board clamps are tools used to fix and support circuit boards, designed to ensure stable positioning during manufacturing, testing, and repair, facilitating various operations. Generally, circuit board clamps have the following characteristics and functions: 1. Precise positioning: Accurately fixes the circuit board, preventing displacement during operation and ensuring accuracy. 2. Good support: Provides uniform support for the circuit board, preventing deformation due to its own weight or external forces. 3. High adaptability: Can adapt to circuit boards of different sizes and shapes, possessing a certain degree of versatility. 4. Easy operation: A reasonable design allows operators to easily place and remove circuit boards from the clamp, improving work efficiency.

[0003] In practical applications, the specific form and structure of circuit board clamps will vary depending on different needs and usage scenarios. For example, clamps used in maintenance settings may prioritize flexibility and portability, and sometimes support feet are needed to support and elevate the circuit board, while those used on production lines need to be removed to secure them to the conveyor line, making them inflexible and less portable.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0040] Specific embodiments, such as Figure 1-3 The illustrated flexible circuit board clamp includes: a clamp body 1 with four rectangularly distributed storage slots 2 at its bottom; support legs 3, one end of each of the four support legs 3 being hinged in a corresponding storage slot 2, and the four support legs 3 being able to flip inward to be stored in the storage slot 2, or flip outward to support the clamp body 1; a support and limiting platform 4, located on one side of the top of the clamp body 1, the support and limiting platform 4 having a placement slot 5 for supporting and placing circuit boards; a circuit board fixing member 6, movably located on the top of the clamp body 1 and positioned opposite to the placement slot 5; and an adjustment mechanism 7, used to drive the circuit board fixing member 6 to move closer to or further away from the support and limiting platform 4 to adjust the distance between the support and limiting platform 4 and the circuit board fixing member 6. In use, the circuit board is placed on the placement slot, and the circuit board is fixed by the support and limiting platform and the circuit board fixing component to achieve circuit board positioning and ensure operational accuracy. The distance between the support and limiting platform and the circuit board fixing component can be adjusted by the movable adjustment mechanism to accommodate circuit boards of different sizes. It has high versatility and strong adaptability. Depending on the maintenance and processing situation, the four support legs can be flipped outward to support and raise the fixture body, or the four support legs can be flipped inward to store in the storage slot, making it suitable for production lines. It is flexible in use and highly portable.

[0041] Specifically, the storage slot 2 is provided with a support limiting protrusion 8, and the support foot 3 can be flipped outward to abut against the support limiting protrusion 8 to support the clamp body 1. The clamp body is supported and lifted by the support limiting protrusion 8 and the support foot.

[0042] In addition, the clamp body 1 is provided with side limiting protrusions 9 on the top and on both sides of the supporting and limiting platform 4. This makes the circuit board positioning more accurate.

[0043] Further, the movable adjustment mechanism 7 includes: an adjustment mounting member 71, on which the circuit board fixing member 6 is disposed; an adjustment guide rail 72, which is disposed on the top of the clamp body 1; an adjustment slider 73, which is movably disposed on the adjustment guide rail 72 and connected to the adjustment mounting member 71; a guide mounting member 74, which is disposed on the top of the clamp body 1 opposite to the supporting and limiting platform 4, and the guide mounting member 74 is provided with a guide groove 75; a guide post 76, one end of which is connected to the adjustment mounting member 71, and the other end of which movably passes through the guide groove 75; and a first elastic member 77, which is sleeved on the guide post 76 and located between the adjustment mounting member 71 and the guide mounting member 74, for driving the guide mounting member 74 to maintain a tendency to move towards the supporting and limiting platform 4. The first elastic element 77 is a reset spring. When fixing the circuit board, the reset spring pushes the guide mounting part 74 to maintain the tendency to move closer to the support limiting platform 4, that is, it drives the circuit board fixing part 6 to move closer to the support limiting platform 4 and cooperate with the support limiting platform 4 to fix the circuit board. The reset spring can be manually compressed to adjust the distance between the support limiting platform 4 and the circuit board fixing part 6, which makes it more versatile.

[0044] More specifically, there are two of each of the adjusting guide rail 72, adjusting slider 73, and guide post 76, and the two adjusting guide rails 72, adjusting sliders 73, and guide posts 76 are respectively arranged opposite to each other. This makes the adjustment more stable and the support more stable, keeping the circuit board stable during processing.

[0045] Furthermore, the clamp body 1 is provided with limiting posts 10 at both ends of the adjusting guide rail 72, and the adjusting slider 73 can move on the adjusting guide rail 72 until it abuts against the limiting posts 10 to restrict the movement of the adjusting slider 73.

[0046] Furthermore, the circuit board fixing component 6 has a silicone layer 11 on the side near the supporting and limiting platform 4 to prevent damage to the circuit board. Specifically, the silicone layer 11 also has an antistatic coating on the side near the supporting and limiting platform 4, which can optionally be made of nylon, polyoxymethylene, polyetheretherketone, etc.

[0047] Specifically, the adjusting mounting component 71 is provided with an adjusting handle 12, making adjustment more convenient.

[0048] More specifically, it also includes an upper fixing assembly 13, which comprises: an upper fixing plate 131, which is movably disposed on the support and limiting platform 4 in a vertical direction, with one end opposite to the placement groove 5; a movable guide sleeve 132, which is disposed on the support and limiting platform 4 in a vertical direction; a movable guide post 133, one end of which is connected to the upper fixing plate 131, and the other end of which movably passes through the movable guide sleeve 132; and a second elastic member 134, which is sleeved on the movable guide post 133 and located between the upper fixing plate 131 and the support and limiting platform 4, for driving the upper fixing plate 131 to maintain a tendency to move closer to the support and limiting platform 4. By pressing down one edge of the circuit board with the upper fixing plate 131, the circuit board is prevented from warping during processing.

[0049] In addition, a torsion spring 14 is provided in the storage slot 2. One end of the torsion spring 14 is connected to the clamp body 1, and the other end is connected to the support leg 3, which is used to keep the support leg 3 rotating inward and stored in the storage slot 2. This enhances portability.

Furthermore, due to different industry naming conventions, it is not limited to the above names or English names.
