Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of metal etching equipment, and in particular relates to a three-channel uninterrupted loading and unloading integrated equipment for copper plate etching. Background Technology
[0002] Copper plate etching technology is a precision processing technique that uses chemical or physical methods to selectively remove material from a copper plate to form specific patterns or raised / recessed effects. Simply put, the design pattern is transferred to a cleaned copper plate through exposure and development, or a resist layer is directly used to protect specific areas. Then, the copper plate is immersed in an etching solution to selectively remove the exposed copper layer, forming a hollow or raised / recessed structure. Finally, the copper plate is cleaned and dried to complete the final product. In the process of copper plate etching, the copper plate needs to be transferred. The traditional manual loading and unloading method is not only slow and inefficient, but also increases the risk of workers coming into contact with harmful substances because the etching process involves corrosive etching solutions. In addition, during the manual transfer of copper plates, positioning deviations are easily caused by fatigue or differences in experience. If the placement position or angle of the copper plate is slightly off, it may lead to uneven etching patterns. Therefore, a three-channel uninterrupted loading and unloading integrated equipment for copper plate etching is needed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this utility model embodiment is to provide a three-channel uninterrupted loading and unloading integrated equipment for copper plate etching, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A three-channel continuous loading and unloading integrated equipment for copper plate etching includes: The main body of the equipment includes a workbench, a pair of electric slide rails, and multiple material frames. The pair of electric slide rails are fixedly installed above the workbench at a predetermined distance. The workbench forms multiple transfer channels with equal intervals. The multiple material frames are spaced apart on the workbench. The transfer device includes multiple sets of suction cups, a conveyor belt, and a transfer frame. Each set of suction cups has multiple suction cups spaced apart. Each set of suction cups is spaced apart and mounted on the transfer frame, with each set of suction cups positioned directly above each material frame. The two ends of the conveyor belt are movably mounted on a pair of electric slide rails, and the transfer frame is vertically movable on the conveyor belt. A further technical solution is provided, wherein the bottom wall of the material frame has a top material groove, and the main body of the equipment also includes multiple top material plates, multiple sets of connecting columns and multiple moving plates. The moving plates are movably arranged below the workbench. The two ends of each set of connecting columns are respectively connected to each top material plate and each moving plate. The moving plates are adapted to the top material groove, and each moving plate is placed directly below each top material groove.
[0005] In a further technical solution, the main body of the equipment also includes multiple positioning components. Each positioning component includes a hook, a drive unit, a mounting bracket, and a sliding frame. The cross-section of the sliding frame is U-shaped. The upper end of the hook is rotatably mounted on the sliding frame. The output shaft of the drive unit is connected to the sliding frame. The hook is rotatably inserted into the mounting bracket. The drive unit is mounted on the mounting bracket. Multiple mounting brackets are spaced apart and mounted on the side of the lower end face of the workbench.
[0006] In a further technical solution, the workbench has multiple material frame channels, each material frame channel being aligned with each transfer channel, and the workbench is provided with multiple spaced fixing posts on the opposite sidewalls of each material frame channel, with the lower end face of the material frame abutting against the fixing posts.
[0007] In a further technical solution, multiple racks are fixedly arranged below the workbench, and the main body of the equipment also includes multiple gears, each gear meshing with each rack, and the gears are rotatably mounted on each of the belt shift plates.
[0008] In a further technical solution, the main body of the equipment also includes multiple pairs of material frame locking assemblies. Each material frame locking assembly includes a locking rod, a rotating rod, and a fixing rod. The locking rod has an L-shaped cross-section and is rotatably mounted on the fixing rod. One end of the locking rod is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating rod. The rotating rod is placed inside the fixing rod. Each pair of fixing rods is disposed opposite to each bottom wall of the material frame channel.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This invention features a transfer device comprising multiple sets of suction cups, a conveyor belt, and a transfer frame. Each set of suction cups is spaced apart on the transfer frame and positioned directly above each material frame. The two ends of the conveyor belt are movably mounted on an electric slide rail, and the transfer frame is vertically movable on the conveyor belt. During loading and unloading, the activated electric slide rail drives the conveyor belt to move back and forth along the axial direction of the electric slide rail. The transfer frame drives the suction cups to move back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the direction of movement of the conveyor belt, thereby transferring the copper plate between the suction cups and the transfer channel. This eliminates the need for manual transfer of the copper plate by workers, improving work efficiency. Furthermore, workers do not need to come into contact with copper plates that may be contaminated with corrosive etching solution, reducing the risk of workers coming into contact with harmful substances and demonstrating the high degree of automation of the equipment. This invention comprises a top plate, connecting columns, and a sliding plate. The sliding plate is vertically movable and positioned below the worktable. Each set of connecting columns is connected at both ends to each top plate and sliding plate, respectively. The sliding plate is adapted to the top trough, and each sliding plate is positioned directly below each top trough. During the process of transferring the copper plate by the suction cup, the sliding plate moves up and down, allowing the top plate, connected to the sliding plate by the connecting columns, to continuously pass through the top trough. This facilitates the suction cup to place the adsorbed copper plate onto the top plate and then onto the material frame, further ensuring that the copper plate placed in the material frame remains horizontal.

[0014] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0015] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a three-channel uninterrupted loading and unloading integrated equipment for copper plate etching, comprising: The main body of the equipment 1 includes a workbench 11, a pair of electric slide rails 12 and multiple material frames 13. The pair of electric slide rails 12 are fixedly installed above the workbench 11 at a predetermined distance. The workbench 11 forms multiple transfer channels 111 with the same intervals. The multiple material frames 13 are spaced apart on the workbench 11. The transfer device 2 includes multiple sets of suction cups 21, a transfer frame 22, and a transfer frame 23. Each set of suction cups 21 is provided with multiple suction cups, and the multiple suction cups 21 are spaced apart. Each set of suction cups 21 is spaced apart and installed on the transfer frame 23. Each set of suction cups 21 is placed directly above each material frame 13. The two ends of the transfer frame 22 are movably mounted on a pair of electric slide rails 12. The transfer frame 23 is movably mounted on the transfer frame 22. In this embodiment, during loading and unloading, the electric slide rail 12, after activation, drives the conveyor belt 22 to move back and forth along the axial direction of the electric slide rail 12; at the same time, the transfer frame 23 drives the suction cup 21 to move back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the conveyor belt 22, so that the copper plate is transferred between the suction cup 21 and the transfer channel 111; by setting multiple sets of suction cups 21 and multiple transfer channels 111, the copper plate does not need to be manually transferred by workers, improving work efficiency, and workers do not need to come into contact with copper plates that may be covered with corrosive etching solution, reducing the risk of workers coming into contact with harmful substances and demonstrating the degree of automation of the equipment; Specifically, the bottom wall of the material frame 13 has a top material groove 131, and the main body of the equipment 1 also includes multiple top material plates 14, multiple sets of connecting columns 15 and multiple moving plates 16. The moving plates 16 are movably arranged below the workbench 11. The two ends of each set of connecting columns 15 are respectively connected to each top material plate 14 and each moving plate 16. The moving plates 16 are adapted to the top material groove 131, and each moving plate 16 is placed directly below each top material groove 131. In this embodiment, during the process of the suction cup 21 transferring the copper plate, the driving device drives the gear 18 to rotate, thereby driving the belt transfer plate 16, which is rotatably connected to the gear 18, to move up and down along the rack 114 axially, so that the top plate 14, which is connected to the belt transfer plate 16 through the connecting column 15, continuously passes through the top groove 131, thereby facilitating the suction cup 21 to place the adsorbed copper plate on the top plate 14 and then place it on the material frame 13, further ensuring that the copper plate placed in the material frame 13 remains in a horizontal state; Specifically, the main body of the equipment 1 also includes multiple positioning components 17. Each positioning component 17 includes a hook 171, a drive component 172, a mounting bracket 173, and a sliding frame 174. The cross-section of the sliding frame 174 is U-shaped. The upper end of the hook 171 is rotatably mounted on the sliding frame 174. The output shaft of the drive component 172 is connected to the sliding frame 174. The hook 171 is rotatably inserted into the mounting bracket 173. The drive component 172 is mounted on the mounting bracket 173. Multiple mounting brackets 173 are spaced apart and mounted on the side of the lower end face of the workbench 11. In this embodiment, the worker moves the trolley carrying the material frame 13 to one side of the workbench 11. After the drive unit 172 is started, it drives the moving frame 174 to move, which in turn drives the hook 171 rotatably connected to the moving frame 174 to rotate. After the hook 171 rotates, it fixes the trolley to one side of the workbench 11, so that the worker can easily transfer the material frame 13 from the trolley to the workbench 11. By setting the positioning component 17, the displacement of the trolley during the transfer of the material frame 13 is avoided. Specifically, the workbench 11 has multiple material frame channels 112, each material frame channel 112 is aligned with each transfer channel 111, and the workbench 11 is provided with multiple spaced fixing posts 113 on the opposite side wall of each material frame channel 112, with the lower end face of the material frame 13 in contact with the fixing post 113. In this embodiment, after the trolley is fixed, the worker pushes the material frame 13 in the trolley into the material frame channel 112 in the workbench 11. During the process of the material frame 13 sliding into the material frame channel 112, the lower end face of the material frame 13 is always in contact with the fixed column 113. By setting the fixed column 113, the friction between the material frame 13 and the bottom wall of the material frame channel 112 is reduced, and the service life of the equipment is extended. Specifically, multiple racks 114 are fixedly installed under the workbench 11, and the main body of the equipment 1 also includes multiple gears 18, each gear 18 meshing with each rack 114, and the gears 18 are rotatably mounted on each belt plate 16; Specifically, the main body of the equipment 1 also includes multiple pairs of material frame locking assemblies 19. Each material frame locking assembly 19 includes a locking rod 191, a rotating rod 192, and a fixing rod 193. The locking rod 191 has an L-shaped cross-section and is rotatably mounted on the fixing rod 193. One end of the locking rod 191 is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating rod 192. The rotating rod 192 is placed inside the fixing rod 193. Each pair of fixing rods 193 is disposed opposite to each bottom wall of the material frame channel 112. In this embodiment, the lower end face of the first material frame 13 placed in the material frame channel 112 abuts against the rotating rod 192, so that the axial direction of the rotating rod 192 is parallel to the axial direction of the fixed rod 193. At this time, the locking rod 191 rotates to abut against the side wall of the material frame 13. By setting the material frame locking assembly 19, it is ensured that the subsequent material frames 13 are always in the material frame channel 112, and the material frames 13 are prevented from slipping.
[0016] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the worker moves the trolley carrying the material frame 13 to one side of the workbench 11. After starting, the drive unit 172 drives the moving frame 174 to move, which in turn drives the hook 171, which is rotatably connected to the moving frame 174, to rotate. After rotating, the hook 171 fixes the trolley to one side of the workbench 11, so that the worker can easily transfer the material frame 13 from the trolley to the workbench 11. By setting the positioning component 17, the displacement of the trolley during the transfer of the material frame 13 is prevented. After the trolley is fixed, the worker pushes the material frame 13 in the trolley into the material frame channel 112 in the workbench 11. During the process of the material frame 13 sliding into the material frame channel 112, the lower end face of the material frame 13 is always in contact with the fixed column 113. By setting the fixed column 113, the friction between the material frame 13 and the bottom wall of the material frame channel 112 is reduced, and the service life of the equipment is extended. Furthermore, the lower end face of the first material frame 13 placed in the material frame channel 112 abuts against the rotating rod 192, making the axial direction of the rotating rod 192 parallel to the axial direction of the fixed rod 193. At this time, the locking rod 191 rotates to abut against the side wall of the material frame 13. By setting the material frame locking assembly 19, it is ensured that the subsequent material frames 13 are always in the material frame channel 112, and the material frames 13 are prevented from slipping. After the material frame 13 is transferred, during loading and unloading, the electric slide rail 12 drives the conveyor belt 22 to move back and forth along the axis of the electric slide rail 12; at the same time, the conveyor belt 23 drives the suction cup 21 to move back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the conveyor belt 22, so that the copper plate is transferred between the suction cup 21 and the transfer channel 111; by setting multiple sets of suction cups 21 and multiple transfer channels 111, the copper plate does not need to be manually transferred by workers, improving work efficiency, and workers do not need to come into contact with copper plates that may be covered with corrosive etching solution, reducing the risk of workers coming into contact with harmful substances and demonstrating the degree of automation of the equipment; In addition, since each set of suction cups 21 is located directly above each material frame 13, the copper plate remains horizontal during the process of suction cups 21 adsorbing and transferring the copper plate, reducing the probability of the copper plate shifting and ensuring smooth subsequent processing. Meanwhile, during the process of the suction cup 21 transferring the copper plate, the drive device drives the gear 18 to rotate, which in turn drives the belt transfer plate 16, which is rotatably connected to the gear 18, to move up and down along the rack 114 axially, so that the top plate 14, which is connected to the belt transfer plate 16 through the connecting column 15, continuously passes through the top groove 131, thereby facilitating the suction cup 21 to place the adsorbed copper plate on the top plate 14 and then place it on the material frame 13, further ensuring that the copper plate placed in the material frame 13 remains in a horizontal state.
[0017] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
