Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flexible circuit board technology, specifically to an automatic receiving machine for FPC auxiliary processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) production process, the receiving stage is crucial for ensuring the smooth transition of subsequent processes and product quality. This stage involves the transfer, static elimination, flattening, and orderly storage of FPCs. Currently, the FPC receiving equipment used in the industry has significant shortcomings: traditional receiving methods rely heavily on manual operation, which is not only inefficient but also prone to contamination or static electricity buildup due to human contact, affecting product performance. While some semi-automatic receiving equipment has transfer capabilities, it lacks integrated static elimination and flattening modules, requiring separate equipment and increasing process complexity and production costs. Furthermore, most equipment suffers from poor material positioning flexibility, failing to adapt to the receiving requirements of different FPC specifications. During the receiving process, FPCs are prone to wrinkling and shifting, leading to chaotic storage and failing to meet the receiving demands of large-scale, high-precision FPC production. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic receiving machine for FPC auxiliary processing, so as to solve the problems of low receiving efficiency, lack of integrated anti-static and flattening functions, poor material positioning flexibility, and easy wrinkling and displacement during the receiving process in the existing technology.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an FPC auxiliary processing automatic receiving machine, including a platform base plate, on which two lifting and placing structures are provided. A placing platform and a flattening platform are respectively provided on the lifting and placing structures, and an ionizing air bar is provided between the placing platform and the flattening platform. It includes a first dual-axis moving component and a second dual-axis moving component. The first dual-axis moving component is located between the ionizing air bar and the placing platform, and the second dual-axis moving component is located between the ionizing air bar and the flattening platform. A transfer component is provided at the end of the first dual-axis moving component, and a flattening component is provided at the end of the second dual-axis moving component.

[0005] Furthermore, the transfer assembly includes a top plate, on which a transfer mounting plate is provided via a guide shaft, and suction nozzles are provided at intervals around the periphery of the transfer mounting plate.

[0006] Furthermore, the flattening assembly includes a connecting plate, a suction plate upper plate is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate, a suction and pressing integrated plate is provided at the bottom of the suction plate upper plate, and negative pressure suction holes are provided on the periphery of the suction and pressing integrated plate.

[0007] Furthermore, both the placement platform and the flattening platform are equipped with material limiting structures on their periphery. The material limiting structure includes a rotating seat on the platform base plate, a limiting plate on the rotating seat, an adjusting block on the limiting plate via an extension plate, a pressure plate on the top of the adjusting block via a guide rod, a knob at the end of the guide rod, and a buffer spring on its periphery.

[0008] Furthermore, the lifting and placing structure includes a motor and a commutator at the bottom of the platform base plate, and a lifting shaft is provided at the output end. The lifting shaft is connected to the placing platform and the flattening platform.

[0009] Furthermore, a feeding assembly is provided on the side of the platform base plate, and a protective shell is provided on the outside of the platform base plate and the feeding assembly. An opening is provided on the protective shell corresponding to the position of the feeding assembly and the first placement platform.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. Integrated automatic material collection operation: The equipment integrates feeding, transfer, static removal, flattening and storage functions. The FPC is first placed on the placement platform. The first dual-axis moving component drives the transfer component to grab the FPC. After static removal by the ion air bar, it is transferred to the flattening platform. The second dual-axis moving component drives the flattening component to flatten it. Then it is moved to the feeding component. No manual intervention or switching between multiple devices is required, which greatly improves the material collection efficiency and reduces the production cost.

[0011] 2. Precise Transfer and Flattening with Static Electricity Removal: The transfer assembly ensures smooth lifting and lowering of the transfer mounting plate through the guide shaft, and the spacing of the suction nozzles can stably adsorb the FPC and avoid deviation during the transfer process; the flattening assembly's integrated suction and pressing plate adsorbs the FPC through negative pressure suction holes and simultaneously achieves the flattening function, eliminating FPC wrinkles; the ion air bar can effectively remove static electricity from the FPC surface, preventing static electricity from attracting dust or damaging the FPC, and ensuring product quality.

[0012] 3. Flexible Adaptation and Stable Positioning: The lifting and placing structure, through a motor, commutator, and lifting shaft, allows for adjustment of the height of the placing and flattening platforms, adapting to the material receiving needs of different FPC specifications; the rotating seat of the material limiting structure can adjust the angle of the limiting plate, the adjusting block can move along the extension plate, the knob drives the guide rod to adjust the height of the pressure plate, and the buffer spring prevents the pressure plate from damaging the FPC, achieving flexible positioning and stable storage of the FPC and preventing storage chaos.

[0026] The working principle and specific operation process of this utility model are as follows: Equipment debugging and parameter setting: Turn on the equipment power and check whether the feeding component 11 conveys smoothly and whether the first dual-axis moving component 5 and the second dual-axis moving component 6 move flexibly; according to the specifications of the FPC to be received, start the motor 8 of the lifting and placing structure, and use the commutator 9 to drive the lifting shaft 10 to adjust the height of the placing platform 2 and the flattening platform 3 to match the FPC size; adjust the material limiting structure 7: rotate the rotating seat 72 to determine the angle of the limiting plate 73, move the adjusting block 75 along the extension plate 74 to adjust the lateral position, rotate the knob 78 to drive the guide rod 76 to adjust the height of the pressure plate 77, and compress the buffer spring 79 to a suitable degree to ensure that the pressure plate 77 can stably limit the FPC without causing damage; turn on the ion air bar 4 and set the appropriate static elimination power.

[0027] FPC feeding and transfer static electricity removal: The FPC to be received enters the anti-static platform through the opening on the protective shell 12. The first dual-axis moving component 5 drives the transfer component to move above the FPC. The guide shaft drives the transfer mounting plate 52 to descend. The suction nozzle 53 contacts the FPC and generates negative pressure to adsorb the FPC. The transfer mounting plate 52 rises, and the first dual-axis moving component 5 drives the transfer component to move above the ion air bar 4. When the FPC passes through the ion air bar 4, the static electricity on the surface is removed. Then the transfer component continues to move above the flattening platform 3. The suction nozzle 53 releases the negative pressure, and the FPC is placed on the flattening platform 3. The limiting plate 73 and the pressure plate 77 of the material limiting structure 7 perform initial positioning of the FPC.

[0028] FPC flattening and orderly storage: The second dual-axis moving component 6 drives the flattening component to move above the flattening platform 3, and the suction and pressure integrated plate 63 descends. The suction and pressure integrated plate 63 descends and applies pressure to the FPC while adsorbing under negative pressure to achieve flattening and eliminate FPC wrinkles. After flattening, the second dual-axis moving component 6 drives the component to be placed on the feeding component 11.
