TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of integrated circuit manufacturing, and particularly relates to a soaking device for a PCB. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the production process of a PCB, a plurality of processes for treating the PCB using different reagents are involved, such as pre-impregnation, etching, copper plating, cleaning and the like. However, the equipment and treatment methods used in different processes are significantly different. For example, the etching process and the cleaning process usually use conveying rollers to convey the PCB into a spraying chamber for spraying treatment, while the pre-impregnation process and the copper plating process usually use a hanging basket to place the PCB into a soaking pool for soaking treatment. This results in the need for frequent transfer of the PCB between different equipment in the production process, poor connection between processes, and difficulty in achieving full-process automatic control. In addition, in the existing soaking process, the PCB can only be slightly agitated in the soaking pool by the hanging basket to promote the mutual flow of the reagent around the PCB, thereby increasing the soaking treatment efficiency. However, this results in insufficient flow of the chemical reagent in the through holes and counterbores of the PCB, and low reagent exchange efficiency. When the concentration of the reagent around the PCB decreases with the reaction time, the treatment efficiency of the PCB will also decrease. This problem is particularly prominent in the copper plating process, which not only reduces the efficiency of the copper plating treatment of the PCB, but also affects the overall production efficiency of the PCB.

[0024] Preferably, referring to Figure 4 The soaking pool 4 is provided with a liquid guide surface 402, the liquid guide surface 402 is located at the upper side of the arc-shaped groove 401, the included angle between the liquid guide surface 402 and the horizontal plane is greater than the included angle between the inclined surface where the power roller group 41 is located and the horizontal plane, so as to gradually reduce the distance between the liquid guide surface 402 and the plane where the PCB board is located from bottom to top, so that the pressure of the liquid flowing through the gap between the two gradually increases with the increase of the width of the PCB board, and then the probability of the liquid penetrating the PCB board above the liquid guide surface 402 is improved.
[0025] Preferably, referring to Figure 4 The arc-shaped groove 401 is fixedly connected with longitudinally distributed spacing baffles 44, the spacing between the two adjacent longitudinally distributed spacing baffles 44 is less than half of the length of the PCB board, so as to increase the effect of the longitudinally distributed spacing baffles 44 on hindering the left and right direction flow of the liquid.
[0026] In the above scheme, the limiting piece 42 is used to reduce the volume of the soaking pool 4, so as to plan the flow path of the liquid, increase the utilization rate of the liquid and the efficiency of the liquid replacement near the PCB board, the arc-shaped groove 401 is in an inclined state as a whole, the upper part of the arc-shaped groove 401 and the lower part of the liquid guide surface 402 are connected with each other, and the arc-shaped groove 401 and the liquid guide surface 402 are both located below the power roller group 41, the limiting baffle 43 is used to separate the path of the liquid flowing from the lower side of the power roller group 41 to the back, and the longitudinally distributed spacing baffles 44 are used to block the path of the liquid flowing along the left and right sides, so that the liquid below the PCB board can only flow through the through hole on the PCB board or pass through the liquid guide surface 402 on the upper side of the PCB board to flow to the upper side of the PCB board, and finally enter the liquid storage pool 5.
[0027] Preferably, referring to Figures 3-5The first baffle plate 51 and the second baffle plate 52 are provided with through holes which are distributed at intervals, the first baffle plate 51 is located at the communication position between the soaking pool 4 and the liquid storage pool 5, and the second baffle plate 52 divides the liquid storage pool 5 into a liquid guide cavity 501 and a mixed liquid cavity 502 which are in communication with each other, the liquid guide cavity 501 is in communication with the soaking pool 4 through the first baffle plate 51, the mixed liquid cavity 502 is in communication with the liquid inlet 601, the liquid guide cavity 501 is used for guiding the stable mixing of the liquid medicine entering the liquid storage pool 5, and it is convenient for the staff to detect the concentration of the liquid medicine, the staff supplements the high-concentration liquid medicine into the mixed liquid cavity 502 according to the detection result.
[0028] Preferably, referring to Figures 4-6 The mixed liquid cavity 502 is provided with bubble generators 53, liquid supplementing nozzles 54 and gas-liquid separators 55 which are distributed at intervals, and the positions of the liquid supplementing nozzles 54 and the gas-liquid separators 55 are higher than the position of the communication position between the mixed liquid cavity 502 and the liquid inlet 601.

[0031] Preferably, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figures 7-9The swinging mechanism comprises an electric push rod 10, the electric push rod 10 is electrically connected with the control terminal, the electric push rod 10 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the box body 1, the telescopic end of the electric push rod 10 is fixedly connected with a connecting piece 11, the connecting piece 11 is fixedly connected with a connecting plate 12, the front side of the connecting plate 12 is slidingly connected with a sliding plate 13, the front side of the sliding plate 13 is hingedly connected with a rotating plate 14, the rotating plate 14 is provided with a swinging roller set 15, the swinging roller set 15 is electrically connected with the control terminal, and the swinging roller set 15 is rotationally connected with the box body 1.
[0032] In the above scheme, the swinging roller set 15 is an existing electric control transmission device (its specific structure is similar to that of the power roller set 41, and it is also a double-row transmission roller), and the total stroke of the swinging roller set 15 for conveying the PCB board can be adjusted according to the actual production situation. When the rear side of the swinging roller set 15 swings to the lowermost side, the inclined plane where the swinging roller set 15 is located is the same as the inclined plane where the power roller set 41 is located. When the rear side of the swinging roller set 15 swings to the uppermost side, the horizontal plane where the swinging roller set 15 is located is the same as the horizontal plane where the feeding roller set 2 and the discharging roller set 3 are located. Referring to Figure 1 The initial non-working state of the left swinging roller set 15 is a horizontal state, and the initial non-working state of the right swinging roller set 15 is an inclined state.
[0033] The working principle of the above scheme is as follows: The worker first places the PCB board on the feeding roller set 2 (or conveys it to the feeding roller set 2 from the conveying roller set in other production steps), and then synchronously starts the feeding roller set 2, the discharging roller set 3, the power roller set 41, the motor 7 and the two swinging roller sets 15 through the control terminal. The feeding roller set 2 conveys the PCB board to the left swinging roller set 15 on the right. When the PCB board is completely moved to the swinging roller set 15, the control terminal closes the left swinging roller set 15, and controls the telescopic end of the left electric push rod 10 to shrink downward. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 10 drives the connecting piece 11, the connecting plate 12, the sliding plate 13 and the rotating plate 14 to move downward together. The sliding plate 13 slides forward relative to the connecting plate 12, and the sliding plate 13 and the rotating plate 14 rotate relative to each other. At this time, the left swinging roller set 15 gradually swings downward until the swinging roller set 15 swings to the lowermost side of its stroke (i.e., the inclined plane where the swinging roller set 15 is located is the same as the inclined plane where the power roller set 41 is located). The control terminal closes the electric push rod 10 and starts the left swinging roller set 15. The swinging roller set 15 continues to convey the PCB board to the right, until the PCB board leaves the swinging roller set 15 and enters the power roller set 41. The control terminal controls the telescopic end of the left electric push rod 10 to move upward and reset. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 10 drives the connecting piece 11, the connecting plate 12, the sliding plate 13 and the rotating plate 14 to move and reset together.
[0034] In the above process, if it is required that the swing roller group 15 is always in the starting state during the production process, the total stroke of the swing roller group 15 needs to be increased to ensure that the rightmost side of the PCB board does not move above the power roller group 41 before the swing roller group 15 stops swinging.
[0035] When the PCB board enters the power roller group 41, the power roller group 41 continues to convey the PCB board to the right. Because the PCB board is always in an inclined state, the PCB board gradually moves downward to a position where it contacts the limiting baffle 43. During this process, the motor 7 always drives the rotating roller 8 to rotate. During the rotation of the rotating roller 8, the moving strip 9 thereon is always in contact with the power pool 6 under the action of the first elastic member. At this time, the power pool 6, the rotating roller 8, and the adjacent two moving strips 9 together form a cavity with a volume that changes continuously (the power pool 6, the rotating roller 8, and the moving strip 9 can be regarded as an existing rotary vane pump, and their working principle is the same as that of the existing rotary vane pump). When the cavity is in communication with the liquid inlet 601, as the rotating roller 8 continuously rotates, the volume of the cavity continuously increases, thereby sucking the liquid medicine in the mixing liquid chamber 502 through the liquid inlet 601. When the cavity is in communication with the liquid outlet 602, as the rotating roller 8 continuously rotates, the volume of the cavity continuously decreases, thereby delivering the liquid medicine to the arc-shaped groove 401 through the liquid outlet 602.
[0036] After the liquid medicine enters the arc-shaped groove 401, taking the position of the PCB board as an example, the liquid medicine is just below the PCB board, and because the gap between the limiting baffle 43 and the PCB board is small (or the two are in direct contact), the liquid medicine is blocked from flowing directly to the right. The longitudinal baffle 44 blocks the liquid medicine from flowing to the left and right sides. Therefore, the liquid medicine only has three flow paths: through the gap between the PCB board and the adjacent longitudinal baffle 44, through the through hole on the PCB board, and through the gap between the PCB board and the liquid guide surface 402. Because the flow areas of the three flow paths are limited, the flow pressure of the liquid medicine in the three flow paths increases during the continuous delivery of the liquid medicine from the power pool 6 to the soaking pool 4, thereby increasing the probability of the liquid medicine passing through the through hole on the PCB board and indirectly increasing the flow rate of the liquid medicine flowing outward from the lower side of the PCB board.
[0037] During the above process of the liquid medicine entering the soaking pool 4 from the power pool 6, because the volume of the cavity formed by the power pool 6, the rotating roller 8, and the adjacent two moving strips 9 does not change uniformly, the amount of liquid medicine entering the soaking pool 4 is always in a state of constant fluctuation, which causes the flow pressure of the liquid medicine flowing outward from the lower side of the PCB board to change constantly, and the liquid medicine flows to the lower surface of the PCB board in the form of a wave, thereby causing the liquid medicine on the lower side of the PCB board to mix with each other through the constantly fluctuating liquid, further increasing the replacement speed of the liquid medicine around the PCB board. At the same time, the fluctuating liquid is more likely to enter the counterbore of the PCB board through its flow inertia, thereby increasing the efficiency of copper deposition in the counterbore of the PCB board.
[0038] When the liquid medicine flows out of the lower side of the PCB board, it passes through the gap between the upper side of the PCB board and the limiting piece 42, re-enters the liquid storage pool 5 through the first barrier plate 51. At this time, because the flow area of the through hole on the first barrier plate 51 increases from left to right in turn, the amount of liquid medicine flowing into the liquid storage pool 5 from the left side of the soaking pool 4 is less, and the amount of liquid medicine flowing into the liquid storage pool 5 from the right side of the soaking pool 4 is more. Part of the liquid medicine on the left side needs to flow to the right before it can more easily enter the liquid storage pool 5, so that the liquid medicine on both sides of the soaking pool 4 is more easily mixed together. When the power roller group 41 is started, the staff synchronously starts the bubble generator 53 and the small turbofan 56 through the control terminal, so that the liquid medicine entering the liquid storage pool 5 from the right side is accelerated to the left by the small turbofan 56, further promoting the mutual flow of the liquid medicine in the liquid storage pool 5. The staff controls the sampling detector 57 to extract part of the liquid medicine at regular intervals through the control terminal to detect the concentration of the liquid medicine in the liquid storage pool 5. When the liquid medicine in the liquid guide cavity 501 enters the mixing cavity 502 through the second barrier plate 52, it is also affected by the change of the flow area of the through hole on the mixing cavity 502, and relatively uniformly enters the mixing cavity 502. The bubble generator 53 introduces bubbles into the mixing cavity 502, and the bubbles are finally discharged outward from the gas-liquid separator 55. The staff calculates the amount of high-concentration liquid medicine that needs to be supplemented by sampling the liquid medicine, and then the staff controls the liquid supplementing nozzle 54 to spray the required liquid medicine into the mixing cavity 502 through the control terminal. The liquid medicine in the mixing cavity 502 is rapidly mixed under the action of the bubbles, and finally re-enters the power pool 6 through the liquid inlet 601.
[0039] When the power roller group 41 completely transports the PCB board to the right side of the swing roller group 15, the staff closes the right side of the swing roller group 15 through the control terminal, and controls the extension end of the right side of the electric push rod 10 to extend upward through the control terminal. The extension end of the electric push rod 10 drives the right side of the connecting piece 11, the connecting plate 12, the sliding plate 13 and the rotating plate 14 to move upward, so that the right side of the swing roller group 15 gradually rotates to the horizontal state. Then the staff restarts the right side of the swing roller group 15 through the control terminal, and the swing roller group 15 transports the PCB board to the discharge roller group 3, and the discharge roller group 3 transports the PCB board to the next process. When the PCB board completely leaves the right side of the swing roller group 15, the staff controls the extension end of the right side of the electric push rod 10 to drive the connecting piece 11, the connecting plate 12, the sliding plate 13, the rotating plate 14 and the swing roller group 15 to swing back to the original position through the control terminal.
[0040] When the production of the PCB board is stopped, the staff closes the feeding roller group 2, the discharge roller group 3, the power roller group 41, the motor 7, the swing roller group 15, the bubble generator 53 and the small turbofan 56 through the control terminal.
[0041] Embodiment 2: on the basis of embodiment 1, it is further added that the PCB board to be prepared to enter the soaking pool 4 is cleaned by using the liquid medicine.
[0042] Preferably, referring to Figure 7 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 , a cleaning mechanism for removing the micro-bubbles attached to the PCB board is further included, which is arranged on the left side of the box 1 and between the soaking pool 4 and the left swinging roller group 15, and includes a degassing pool 16 in communication with the soaking pool 4, a transmission roller group 17 arranged on the degassing pool 16 in an inclined manner, the transmission roller group 17 being electrically connected with the control terminal, and the degassing pool 16 being provided with an inclined surface and a plurality of liquid spraying ports 161 arranged on the inclined surface in an alternating manner, the liquid spraying ports 161 being in communication with the liquid outlet 602.
[0043] Preferably, referring to Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the degassing pool 16 is provided with a plurality of auxiliary rotating wheels 18 arranged in an interval manner.
[0044] In the above scheme, the transmission roller group 17 is only a single row of transmission rollers (the specific structure is similar to that of the power roller group 41, the plane where the transmission roller group 17 is located is the same as the plane where the upper transmission rollers of the power roller group 41 are located, and the plane where the auxiliary rotating wheel 18 is located is the same as the plane where the lower transmission rollers of the power roller group 41 are located), which is used to drive the PCB board on the upper side to move, thereby reducing the gap between the PCB board and the bottom surface of the soaking pool 4, increasing the pressure of the liquid medicine sprayed from the liquid spraying port 161 to impact the PCB board, and thereby cleaning the micro-bubbles attached to the PCB board when it is immersed in the liquid medicine, and increasing the efficiency of the subsequent soaking process. The auxiliary rotating wheel 18 is a passive roller, which is used to reduce the probability of the PCB board contacting the bottom of the degassing pool 16.
[0045] The working principle of the above scheme is as follows: When the staff starts the power roller group 41 through the control terminal, the transmission roller group 17 is started synchronously. During the process that the staff transports the PCB board to the right through the left swinging roller group 15, the PCB board enters between the transmission roller group 17 and the adjacent auxiliary rotating wheel 18. In this process, the power pool 6 continuously transports the liquid medicine into the liquid inlet 601, and the liquid medicine in the left liquid inlet 601 gradually enters the staggered liquid spraying ports 161. Subsequently, because the liquid medicine is sprayed out of the liquid spraying port 161, it can only be sprayed out of the gap between the PCB board and the bottom surface of the degassing pool 16, so the flow pressure of the liquid medicine is greater than that of the liquid medicine in the soaking pool 4, which is easy to flush away the micro-bubbles generated on the PCB board when it is immersed in the liquid medicine, thereby increasing the contact efficiency of the liquid medicine and the PCB board, and further increasing the soaking efficiency of the subsequent soaking step. When the PCB board enters the lower side of the transmission roller group 17, the transmission roller group 17 continuously transports the PCB board to the right until the PCB board is transported into the power roller group 41.
[0046] When the worker stops producing the PCB board, the worker closes the driving roller set 41 synchronously with the driving roller set 17 through the control terminal.
[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only the preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application, although the foregoing embodiments of the application are described in detail, for those skilled in the art, it still can be modified, or part of the technical features of the equivalent replacement, within the spirit and principles of the present application, any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc., should be included within the scope of the present application.
