Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass fiber cloth preparation technology, specifically a prepreg cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] Prepreg, also known as "PP sheet," is one of the main materials used in the production of multilayer boards. It is mainly composed of resin and reinforcing materials, which are further divided into several types, such as fiberglass cloth, paper-based materials, and composite materials. The prepregs used in the production of multilayer printed circuit boards mostly use fiberglass cloth as the reinforcing material. The fiberglass cloth is treated, impregnated with resin, and then heat-treated (pre-baked) to bring the resin into the B stage, resulting in a thin sheet material called a prepreg. It softens under heat and pressure and cures upon cooling.

[0003] During the inspection of glass cloth, when defects are encountered, the cloth is usually cut open first, and then spliced ​​using prepreg. Therefore, the workshop regularly cuts prepreg. When cutting PP sheets, customers have certain requirements for the size of the prepreg, especially the width. If traditional manual cutting is used, the size will have obvious errors and will not meet the width requirements.

[0004] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved in this case is: how to solve the problem of significant size errors when cutting PP sheets. Utility Model Content

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] refer to Figures 1 to 4 A prepreg cutting device includes a frame 1, a drive mechanism 2 and a cutting mechanism 3 mounted on the frame 1; the frame 1 has a plurality of size blocks 101; there are gaps between adjacent size blocks 101; the cutting mechanism 3 includes a pressure plate 31 and a blade 32; the lower end face of the blade 32 is provided with cutting edges 321 corresponding to the positions of the plurality of gaps; the drive mechanism 2 is mounted on the frame 1, and the movable end of the drive mechanism 2 is connected to the pressure plate 31 and used to drive the pressure plate 31 to move vertically; the pressure plate 31 is arranged directly below the blade 32 and is slidably connected to the blade 32; the pressure plate 31 has a hollow portion 301;

[0026] When the drive mechanism 2 drives the cutting mechanism 3 to move downward, the pressure plate 31 first contacts and presses the semi-cured sheet a, and then the cutting edge 321 of the blade 32 passes through the cavity 301 and the gap.

[0027] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 2 is a cylinder, which is fixed above the size block 101 by a bracket. In other embodiments, a hydraulic cylinder may also be used. It should be noted that in this embodiment, there are seven size blocks 101 with dimensions of 4cm, 4cm, 5cm, 3cm, and 6cm, corresponding to seven cutting blades 321 in corresponding positions. Of course, in practical applications, additional blades can be used as needed.

[0028] In practical applications, the system also includes a feeding roller 4 and a support roller 5. The feeding roller 4 is disposed on one side of the frame 1 and is used to provide the semi-cured sheet a; the support roller 5 is disposed on the frame 1 and is used to guide the semi-cured sheet a. In this embodiment, there are two support rollers 5, and the upper end face of the support roller 5 overlaps with the upper end face of the dimensional block 101; the feeding roller 4 is disposed below the support roller 5; (Reference) Figure 2In practical applications, the semi-cured sheet a of the feeding roller 4 passes around the support roller 5 and enters the frame 1. Of course, this embodiment only provides one implementation method and does not limit the setting position and method of the feeding roller 4 and the support roller 5.

[0029] In this embodiment, specifically, guide posts 311 are provided around the four sides of the pressure plate 31, with four guide posts 311 respectively located at the four corners of the pressure plate 31. The pressure plate 31 has through holes 302 corresponding to the guide posts 311. The pressure plate 31 is slidably connected to the underside of the blade plate 32 through the guide posts 311 passing through the through holes 302. The above design is mainly to allow the pressure plate 31 to contact the prepreg a on the frame 1 before the blade plate 32, thereby pressing the prepreg a onto the frame 1 and preventing the prepreg a from shifting during the stamping process of the blade plate 32, which would cause dimensional deviations. In addition, in other embodiments, a rough surface can be made on the lower end face of the pressure plate 31 to further prevent the prepreg a from shifting.

[0030] More specifically, in order to prevent the pressure plate 31 from detaching from the blade plate 32, a limiting block 312 is provided on the upper end surface of the guide post 311.

[0031] Preferably, a first spring 313 is sleeved on the guide post 311; the first spring 313 is arranged between the pressure plate 31 and the blade plate 32. In this preferred embodiment, during the continuous downward pressing of the blade plate 32, the first spring 313 is first compressed, applying a vertically downward force to the pressure plate 31, causing the pressure plate 31 to further press the prepreg a, and then the protruding cutting blade 321 passes through the cavity 301 and the gap to complete the cutting of the prepreg a. This method not only further prevents the prepreg a from shifting during the cutting process, but also avoids direct collision between the blade plate 32 and the pressure plate 31.

[0032] More preferably, a second spring 314 is sleeved on the guide post 311; the second spring 314 is arranged between the blade plate 32 and the limiting block 312. Similarly, the function of the second spring 314 is to prevent the blade plate 32 and the limiting block 312 from colliding directly.

[0033] It should be noted that in this embodiment, one end of the first spring 313 is fixed to the pressure plate 31, while the other end is not fixedly connected; one end of the second spring 314 is fixed to the limiting block 312, while the other end is not fixedly connected. That is, the blade plate 32 will not be affected by the first spring 313 and the second spring 314 simultaneously.

[0034] In practical applications, in order to facilitate workers to quickly pull the semi-cured sheet a to the designated position, a baffle 11 for restricting the semi-cured sheet a is provided on one side of the frame 1.

[0035] In summary, the working principle of this embodiment is as follows: the worker pulls the semi-cured sheet a on the feeding roller 4, and after passing the support roller 5, it enters the frame 1. One end of the semi-cured sheet a presses against the baffle 11. After the feeding is completed, the drive mechanism 2 can be started to make the entire cutting mechanism 3 move vertically downward. During the movement, the pressure plate 31 first contacts and presses the semi-cured sheet a, and then the cutting blade 321 of the blade 32 passes through the cavity 301 and the gap in turn to complete the cutting and reset. The worker collects the cut semi-cured sheet a; the above steps are repeated to prepare semi-cured sheets a of various sizes.

[0036] The prepreg cutting device of this embodiment can set different width size blocks 101 according to customer requirements to cut prepreg a of different sizes. It can meet the requirements of multiple sizes at one time during the cutting process. At the same time, it reduces human intervention in the process, makes the cutting size accurate, and reduces the labor intensity of workers.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
