[0040] In order to more clearly illustrate the present invention, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with preferred embodiments and accompanying drawings. Similar components in the accompanying drawings are represented by the same reference numerals. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the content specifically described below is illustrative rather than restrictive, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a bracket for making a long creepage optoelectronic coupler, wherein the bracket includes a first sub-bracket and a second sub-bracket, wherein the first sub-bracket includes a plurality of columns of first frames, both sides of each column of the first frames include a plurality of first pins arranged with equal spacing, and the first pins on the first side of both sides of each column of the first frames are staggered with the first pins on the second side; the second sub-bracket includes a plurality of columns of second frames, both sides of each column of the second frames include a plurality of second pins arranged with equal spacing, and the second pins on the first side of both sides of each column of the second frames are staggered with the second pins on the second side, and the second pins on the same side of the second frame and the first frame correspond to the first pins; the first sub-bracket and the second sub-bracket are overlapped, and the corresponding first pins and second pins are overlapped.

[0042] In a specific example, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the bracket includes a first sub-bracket 1 and a second sub-bracket 6, wherein the first sub-bracket 1 includes a plurality of columns of first frames 2, and both sides of each column of the first frames 2 include a plurality of first pins 3 arranged with equal spacing, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first pins 3 on the first side and the first pins 3 on the second side of each column of the first frames 2 are arranged alternately, that is, the positions of the first pins 3 on the two sides of each column of the first frames 2 are staggered.

[0043] The number of first pins on both sides of the first frame 2 may be the same or different. Considering the maximum use of material cost, in a preferred embodiment, the number of first pins 3 included on the first side of the first frame 2 is the same as the number of first pins 3 included on the second side. And the two adjacent first pins 3 on each side of each column of the first frame 2 form a first base island 5 for carrying a light source chip.

[0044] In a preferred embodiment, in view of making full use of the edge structure of the first sub-bracket, the two columns of first frames 2 at the edge of the first sub-bracket 1 respectively include first pins 3 facing the center side of the first sub-bracket 1, that is, the first column of first frames 2 at the edge position in the first sub-bracket 1 only include first pins facing the center side of the bracket, and the last column of first frames 2 only include first pins facing the center side of the bracket.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment, in order to ensure the support and stability of the first sub-bracket, each column of the first frame 2 further includes a third pin 4 .

[0046] Similarly, the second sub-bracket 6 includes a plurality of columns of second frames 7, and both sides of each column of second frames 7 include a plurality of second pins 8 arranged at equal intervals, and the second pins 8 on the first side and the second pins 8 on the second side of each column of second frames 7 are arranged alternately, and the second pins 8 on the same side of the second frame 7 and the first frame 2 correspond to the first pins 3. That is, the structure of the second frame corresponds to the first frame 2, the number of the second pins 8 is the same as the number of the first pins 3, and each column of second frames 7 also includes a third pin 4. And the adjacent two second pins 8 on each side of each column of second frames 7 form a second base island 9 for carrying the photoreceptor chip.

[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, the first sub-bracket 1 and the second sub-bracket 6 are overlapped, and the corresponding first pin 3 and the second pin 8 are overlapped, that is, the corresponding first base island 5 and the second base island 9 are overlapped to form a core structure of a long creepage optoelectronic coupler.

[0048] In this embodiment, the first frame 2 is set as a two-sided structure, and the first pins 3 on both sides are set as a staggered structure, and the first base islands 5 on both sides are set as a staggered structure; the second frame 7 is set as a two-sided structure, and the second pins 8 on both sides are set as a staggered structure, and the first base islands 5 on both sides are set as a staggered structure; when the first sub-bracket 1 and the second sub-bracket 6 are overlapped, the corresponding first base islands 5 and second base islands 9 are overlapped to form a long creepage optoelectronic coupler, and multiple long creepage optoelectronic couplers are formed on the bracket. The above-mentioned setting realizes the intensive production of long creepage optoelectronic couplers on the bracket, improves the output efficiency, and reduces the production cost.

[0049] like Figure 5 As mentioned above, one embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for manufacturing a long creepage optoelectronic coupler using the above-mentioned bracket, comprising:

[0050] S1: Paste the light source and the light receiver on the first base island and the second base island respectively, perform wire welding after pre-curing, weld the light source on the first sub-bracket, and weld the light receiver on the second sub-bracket.

[0051] In a preferred embodiment, in order to protect the relatively fragile light source chip, the manufacturing method further includes:

[0052] S2: using silica gel to solidify the light source on the first base island.

[0053] S3: Overlap the first sub-bracket and the second sub-bracket, and use resin glue to plastic-encapsulate the light source and the light receiver to form a plurality of long creepage photoelectric couplers, such as Figure 6 As shown, further comprising:

[0054] S31: using a first resin glue to encapsulate the light source and the light receiver to form an isolation medium as a light path for the light source and the light receiver; Figure 7 As shown, white resin is injected into the white glue plastic mold as a light path between the input end and the output end and as an isolation medium between the input end and the output end. Then, excess white glue is removed.

[0055] In a preferred embodiment, in order to release the stress generated by the white glue plastic sealing and ensure that the deformation of the frame caused by the stress generated in the black glue plastic sealing is greatly reduced, while maintaining the overall strength of the frame and ensuring that the product bracket can move normally in the glue removal and rib cutting mold, the method also includes:

[0056] S32: Cut off the third pins supporting the first side and the second side of each column of the first frame and the second frame. Figure 8 As shown, ① is the first pin and the second pin that have not been cut off, and ② is the third pin that has been cut off.

[0057] S33: Use a second resin glue to perform secondary plastic sealing on the light source and the light receiver to form a plurality of long creepage photoelectric couplers. Fig. 9 As shown, black resin is injected into the black plastic encapsulation mold to protect the internal structure of the long creepage optocoupler while blocking the influence of external ambient light on the internal optical path of the product, thereby ensuring the creepage distance of the product surface.

[0058] S5: Remove the resin glue from the first sub-bracket and the second sub-bracket and electroplate the first pin and the second pin. First, bake and cure the black glue and the white glue at the curing temperature for a specified time to ensure the completion of the resin cross-linking reaction and the stability of the packaging structure. Secondly, remove the black glue from the bracket after the black glue plastic sealing is cured to ensure that each pin position can be plated with tin in the subsequent electroplating. Finally, electroplate the first pin and the second pin to ensure the solderability of the long creepage optocoupler, such as Fig.10 shown.

[0059] S7: cutting the bracket to separate the plurality of long creepage optocouplers from the bracket and accurately punching the pins to ensure the molding size of the pins of the final product.

[0060] Corresponding to the manufacturing method provided in the above-mentioned embodiments, an embodiment of the present application also provides a long creepage optoelectronic coupler manufactured using the above-mentioned manufacturing method. Since the long creepage optoelectronic coupler provided in the embodiment of the present application corresponds to the manufacturing methods provided in the above-mentioned embodiments, the aforementioned implementation mode is also applicable to the long creepage optoelectronic coupler provided in this embodiment and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0061] like Fig.11 As shown, one embodiment of the present invention provides a long creepage optocoupler, which is manufactured using the above-mentioned manufacturing method.

[0062] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not limitations on the implementation methods of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in the relevant field, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is impossible to list all the implementation methods here. All obvious changes or modifications derived from the technical solution of the present invention are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
