Abstract

A coverlay processing system includes a processing device and a conveyance device. The conveyance device is configured for moving the coverlay to the process device. The conveyance device includes a pulling member, a first securing member, a detector and a controller. The pulling member is configured for driving the coverlay. The first securing member is configured for stopping moving the coverlay. The detector is configured for detecting a moving state of the coverlay and is connected to the controller. The controller is connected to the processing device for managing the operation of the processing device.

Claims (24)

1. A coverlay processing system for processing a flexible coverlay sheet, the coverlay processing system comprising:

a processing device for machining the flexible coverlay sheet; and

a conveyance device configured for moving the flexible coverlay sheet to the processing device, the conveyance device comprising a pulling member, a first securing member, a detector and a controller, the pulling member configured for driving the flexible coverlay sheet, the first securing member configured for stopping moving the flexible coverlay sheet, the detector comprising an emitter mounted on the pulling member and an accepter mounted on the first securing member, such that the emitter and the accepter cooperate to detect a kinked portion of the flexible coverlay sheet, and the detector being connected to the controller, and the controller being connected to the processing device, such that when the detector detects the kinked portion of the flexible coverlay sheet, the controller stops the processing device from machining the flexible coverlay sheet.

2. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first securing member is arranged between the pulling member and the processing device, and the first securing member is arranged closer to the processing device than to the pulling member.

3. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the emitter emits a light beam to the accepter, and the kinked portion interrupts the light beam.

4. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the controller is connected to the first securing member and the pulling member.

5. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the coverlay processing system further comprises a second securing member for stopping moving the flexible coverlay sheet alone or in combination with the first securing member.

6. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processing device comprises a cutting machine, and the coverlay processing system further comprising a drilling device; and

the drilling device, the pulling member, the first securing member, and the cutting machine are arranged in that order.

7. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first securing member comprises a bottom plate and a top plate movably arranged opposite to the bottom plate, and the top plate and the bottom plate cooperate to clamp the flexible coverlay sheet.

8. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the pulling member comprises a bottom plate and a top plate movably arranged opposite to the bottom plate, and the top plate and the bottom plate cooperate to clamp the flexible coverlay sheet.

9. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 8 , wherein a plurality of through holes are defined in the bottom plate of the pulling member, and one end of each of a plurality of connection poles is received in the corresponding through hole.

10. A coverlay processing system for processing a flexible coverlay sheet, the coverlay processing system comprising:

a cutting machine; and

a conveyance device configured for translating the flexible coverlay sheet to the cutting machine, the conveyance device comprising a pulling member, a first securing member, a detector and a controller, the pulling member configured for driving the flexible coverlay sheet, the first securing member being arranged closer to the cutting device than to the pulling member and configured for stopping moving the flexible coverlay sheet, the detector comprising an emitter mounted on the pulling member and an accepter mounted on the first securing member, such that the emitter and the accepter cooperate to detect a kinked portion of the flexible coverlay sheet, and the detector being connected to the controller, and the controller being connected to the cutting device, such that when the detector detects the kinked portion of the flexible coverlay sheet, the controller stops the cutting device from cutting the flexible coverlay sheet.

11. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the pulling member, the first securing member and the cutting machine are arranged in that order.

12. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the emitter emits a light beam to the accepter, and the kinked portion interrupts the light beam.

13. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the controller is connected to the first securing member and the pulling member.

14. A coverlay processing system for processing a flexible coverlay sheet, the coverlay processing system comprising:

a drilling device;

a cutting machine; and

a conveyance device configured for moving the flexible coverlay sheet to the cutting machine, the conveyance device comprising a pulling member, a first securing member, a detector and a controller;

wherein the drilling device, the pulling member, the first securing member and the cutting machine are arranged in the written order and the first securing member is arranged closer to the cutting machine than to the pulling member, the pulling member configured for driving the flexible coverlay sheet, the first securing member configured for stopping moving the flexible coverlay sheet, the detector comprising an emitter mounted on the pulling member and an accepter mounted on the first securing member, such that the emitter and the accepter cooperate to detect a kinked portion of the flexible coverlay sheet, and the detector being connected to the controller, and the controller being connected to the cutting machine, such that when the detector detects the kinked portion of the flexible coverlay sheet, the controller stops the cutting machine from cutting the flexible coverlay sheet.

15. The coverlay processing system as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the controller is connected to the pulling member and the first securing member.
