[0002] In the manufacturing process of DCB (Direct Copper Ceramic Substrate), the copper sheet serves as the core conductive layer, and its surface quality directly affects product performance (such as electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and soldering reliability). Currently, in the production process, copper sheets are typically handled manually in stacks of 100 sheets (approximately 13 catties). However, due to the extremely high surface finish requirements for the copper sheets, lateral movement during handling can cause friction between the sheets, resulting in scratches, wrinkles, and other cosmetic defects.
[0003] Therefore, how to avoid swaying during copper sheet handling is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field.
[0004] It should be noted that the information disclosed in this background section is only for understanding the background technology of this application concept, and therefore, the above description is not considered to constitute information related to the technology. Utility Model Content

[0007] In one alternative embodiment, the clamping mechanism includes a horizontal bar that is horizontally arranged and parallel to the tray. Several grippers are provided on the side wall of the crossbar and extend vertically; A baffle is provided on the inner wall of the gripper, and its length is not less than the length of the copper sheet; When the inner wall of the gripper abuts against the outer wall of the tray, the gap is located between the inner wall of the baffle and the copper sheet.
[0008] In one optional embodiment, a gap of 0.5-1.5 mm is provided between the inner wall of the baffle and the copper sheet.
[0009] In one alternative embodiment, the lower end of the gripper protrudes from the baffle, and the protrusion height is not less than the thickness of the tray.
[0010] In one alternative embodiment, the inner wall of the gripper located below the baffle is provided with an inclined surface, which fits tightly against the outer wall of the tray.
[0011] In one alternative embodiment, the inclination angle of the inclined plane is 80±5°.
[0012] In one optional embodiment, a rubber pad is provided on the surface of the tray, the rubber pad having a thickness of 2-5 mm.
[0013] In one optional embodiment, the inner wall surface of the baffle is coplanar with the inner wall surface of the gripper, and a flexible surface is embedded in the inner side surface of the baffle.
[0014] In one alternative embodiment, the horizontal height of the baffle is greater than that of the rubber pad; When the inner wall of the gripper abuts against the outer wall of the tray, the gap is located between the inner wall of the baffle and the rubber pad.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that it provides a copper sheet handling device. Through the cooperation of the clamp body and the clamping mechanism, a gap of 0.5-1.5mm is provided between the inner wall of the baffle and the copper sheet to avoid the copper sheet from swaying left and right.

[0030] The following detailed description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, describes some embodiments of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, at least one embodiment provides a copper sheet handling device, comprising: The clamp body 1 is integrally molded from alloy to reduce overall weight. It includes: a handle 11, an adjusting rod 12 hinged to the end of the handle 11, and a tray 13. The handle 11 has a U-shaped grip structure with a non-slip rubber layer on its surface. A crossbar 21 is fixed to one end of the handle 11; its other end is hinged to the adjusting rod 12, and another crossbar 21 is fixed to the end of the adjusting rod 12. The tray 13 is rectangular, and its length and width are the same as the length and width of the copper sheet 3. A clamping mechanism 2 is symmetrically distributed on both sides of the handle 11 to limit the copper sheet 3. When the adjusting rod 12 is pressed, it rotates away from the tray 13 with the hinge point as the axis. The adjusting rod 12 drives one clamping structure to move towards the other clamping mechanism 2. The two clamping mechanisms 2 move towards each other, clamping the tray 13 from both sides. When the inner bottom wall of the clamping mechanism 2 abuts against the outer wall of the tray 13, a gap is provided between the outer wall of the copper sheet 3 and the inner wall of the clamping mechanism 2. Through the cooperation of the clamp body 1 and the clamping mechanism 2, a gap of 0.5-1.5mm is provided between the inner wall of the baffle 23 and the copper sheet 3 to prevent the copper sheet 3 from swaying left and right; during the process of handling the copper sheet 3, the copper sheet 3 is prevented from directly contacting the clamp 22, and the flexible surface 25 of the inner wall of the baffle 23 further absorbs the impact energy and prevents scratches from being generated.
[0032] Reference Appendix Figure 2 The clamping mechanism 2 includes: a horizontal bar 21, which is horizontally arranged and parallel to the tray 13; a plurality of grippers 22, which are arranged on the side wall of the horizontal bar 21 and extend vertically; and a baffle 23, which is arranged on the inner side wall of the grippers 22 and has a length not less than the length of the copper sheet 3; wherein, when the inner wall of the grippers 22 abuts against the outer wall of the tray 13, the gap is located between the inner wall of the baffle 23 and the copper sheet 3. Figure 2 In this context, H1 represents the distance between the inner wall of the baffle 23 and the copper sheet 3, with a gap of 0.5-1.5mm. When the gripper 22 abuts against the tray 13, a gap is provided between the outer edge of the copper sheet 3 and the baffle 23 to prevent the copper sheet 3 from impacting the baffle 23 during handling. To reduce friction between the baffle 23 and the copper sheet 3, the inner wall surface of the baffle 23 is coplanar with the inner wall surface of the gripper 22, and a flexible surface 25 is embedded in the inner side of the baffle 23.
[0033] Continue to refer to the appendix Figure 2 The lower end of the gripper 22 protrudes from the baffle 23, and the protrusion height is not less than the thickness of the tray 13. The inner wall of the gripper 22 located below the baffle 23 is provided with an inclined surface 24, which is in close contact with the outer wall of the tray 13. Figure 2 In this context, 'a' represents the angle between the inclined plane 24 and the horizontal plane, and the angle 's' is 80±5°.
[0034] Please refer to the attached document again. Figure 2A rubber pad 14 with a thickness of 2-5 mm is provided on the surface of the tray 13. The horizontal height of the baffle 23 is greater than that of the rubber pad 14; wherein, when the inner wall of the gripper 22 abuts against the outer wall of the tray 13, the gap is located between the inner wall of the baffle 23 and the rubber pad 14.
