Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of low-temperature co-fired ceramics technology, specifically to a ceramic sheet punching machine. Background Technology

[0002] Since its initial development and application in the 1980s, low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) technology has been widely used in wireless communications, automotive electronics, computers, airborne communication and navigation, radar, and satellite fields due to its advantages such as miniaturization, high density, high integration, and high reliability. Among various circuit boards, LTCC not only possesses the excellent high-frequency, high-strength, high-temperature, and high-humidity resistance properties of ceramics, but this technology also combines the advantages of traditional printed circuit boards and thick-film technologies, enabling the one-time packaging of electrode materials, dielectric materials, and passive components.

[0003] Common low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) substrates typically have more than 10 layers. Before the lamination process, the ceramic sheet needs to be punched into individual ceramic substrates. Currently, the punching of ceramic sheets is mostly done manually under pressure, which requires a lot of manpower and places high demands on the physical fitness of the operators.

The ceramic sheet unwinding roller, ceramic sheet conveying mechanism, punching mechanism, and ceramic sheet take-up roller are arranged sequentially along the unwinding direction of the ceramic sheet. A roll of ceramic sheet containing PET film is placed on the ceramic sheet unwinding roller and conveyed by the ceramic sheet conveying mechanism to the ceramic sheet take-up roller for winding. During the unwinding process, the punching mechanism punches the ceramic sheet on the PET film into individual ceramic sheets. After punching, the individual ceramic sheets are picked up and received by the receiving and conveying mechanism.

The material received by the receiving and conveying mechanism is then gripped by the material unloading robot and placed in the material unloading bin.

[0007] Furthermore, the ceramic sheet conveying mechanism includes a support, a drive roller, a conveying motor, a conveying gear set, and a driven roller. The driven roller and the drive roller are arranged vertically on the support and a ceramic sheet conveying gap is formed between them. The conveying motor is arranged on the support and is connected to the drive roller through the conveying gear set. The ceramic sheet roll passes through the ceramic sheet conveying gap and is unwound towards the ceramic sheet take-up roller under the action of the conveying motor.

[0008] Furthermore, the ceramic sheet conveying mechanism also includes a support plate frame, which is disposed on the bracket at the feed end corresponding to the ceramic sheet conveying gap, and sheet blocks are disposed on opposite sides of the support plate frame.

[0009] Furthermore, a material sensor is provided on one side of the support plate frame.

[0010] Furthermore, the punching mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder, an upper die, and a lower die. The output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder faces downward and is connected to the upper die. The upper die is movably located directly above the lower die. A first vacuum adsorption plate is provided at the bottom of the upper die.

[0011] Furthermore, a transmission roller group, a tension roller lifting mechanism, and a transmission roller are sequentially arranged between the punching mechanism and the ceramic sheet winding roller.

[0012] Furthermore, the material receiving and conveying mechanism includes a second vacuum adsorption plate and a lead screw drive module, wherein the second vacuum adsorption plate is connected to the movable plate of the lead screw drive module.

[0013] Furthermore, the unloading bins are provided in a series and are arranged in a straight line on the unloading conveyor belt mechanism, and the conveying direction of the unloading conveyor belt mechanism is perpendicular to the movement direction of the unloading robot.

[0014] Compared to existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: This utility model provides a ceramic sheet punching machine comprising a base and a ceramic sheet unwinding roller, a ceramic sheet conveying mechanism, a punching mechanism, a ceramic sheet take-up roller, a receiving and handling mechanism, a discharging robot, and a discharging bin. In use, a roll of ceramic sheet containing PET film is placed on the ceramic sheet unwinding roller and conveyed by the ceramic sheet conveying mechanism to the ceramic sheet take-up roller for winding. During the unwinding process, the punching mechanism punches the ceramic sheet on the PET film into individual ceramic sheets. After punching, each individual ceramic sheet is picked up and received by the receiving and handling mechanism. The received material is then gripped by the discharging robot and placed in the discharging bin. This ceramic sheet punching machine achieves full automation from loading to punching to unloading, greatly reducing manpower and labor costs, and requiring no physical fitness from the user.

In use, a roll of ceramic sheet containing PET film is placed on the ceramic sheet unwinding roller 2 and conveyed sequentially through the transmission roller group 5, tension roller lifting mechanism 6, and transmission roller 7 by the ceramic sheet conveying mechanism 3. The ceramic sheet is wound up by the ceramic sheet take-up roller 8, and during the unwinding process, the ceramic sheet on the PET film is punched into individual ceramic sheets by the punching mechanism 4. After punching, the individual ceramic sheets are picked up and received by the receiving and conveying mechanism 9. The unloading robot 10 is movably positioned above the receiving and conveying mechanism 9 and the unloading bin 11. The material received by the receiving and conveying mechanism 9 is then grabbed by the unloading robot 10 and placed in the unloading bin 11.

The conveying direction of the unloading conveyor belt mechanism 12 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the unloading robot 10. Under the action of the unloading conveyor belt mechanism 12, the unloading bin 11 moves forward one unit after it is full, and then the next unloading bin 11 is loaded.
