Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of metal foil processing technology, and in particular to a metal foil processing method and processing apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] Embedded resistor foil is a common PCB component used in PCB manufacturing. Through the embedding process, embedded resistor foil can be placed into the inner layers of the PCB. These embedded resistor foils are small in size and their resistance values ​​can be set according to customer requirements. The resulting PCB is identical to a normal PCB, but the inner layers can accommodate a large number of resistors. This design saves considerable space for component placement on the top and bottom layers of the PCB, and therefore it is widely used in various types of PCBs.

[0003] However, the yield rate of embedded resistive metal foil is difficult to guarantee. Currently, a common method involves using a production line system with multiple rollers to transport the foil strip along a predetermined track. As it passes through the deposition chamber, the resistance of the foil strip is altered by immersion and adhesion in the deposition solution. During this process, the resistance value of the deposited foil strip is unpredictable. If the resistance value does not meet the requirements, the embedded resistive metal foil cannot function properly on the PCB board, rendering the entire PCB board unusable and significantly impacting PCB production volume and yield. Therefore, solving the yield rate problem of metal foil is crucial for the future development of this field. Summary of the Invention

A deposition roller is also provided inside the deposition chamber for immersing the foil strip in a deposition solution. The take-up roller is used to recover the foil strip that has passed through the deposition chamber. The monitoring module is located between the deposition chamber and the take-up roller and is used to measure the resistance value of the foil strip that has passed through the deposition chamber.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0038] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0039] Example 1

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a metal foil processing method for processing foil strip 400, including the following steps:

[0041] Step 1: Rotate the feeding roller 110 around the first direction 710 to transport the foil strip 400 wound on the feeding roller 110 to the deposition liquid 500 in the deposition chamber 220 for deposition operation.

[0042] Step 2: After the deposition operation is completed, use the monitoring module 300 to measure the resistance value of the foil strip 400 after the deposition operation. If the resistance value is not within the qualified threshold range, proceed to Step 3; otherwise, proceed to Step 4.

[0043] Step 3: Perform a redeposition operation on foil strip 400, and then proceed to Step 4.

[0044] Step 4: Rotate the take-up roller 130 to retract the foil strip 400 onto the take-up roller 130.

[0045] This metal foil processing method utilizes a feeding roller 110 and a take-up roller 130 to smoothly transport the foil strip 400 and ensure accurate positioning of the foil strip 400 during deposition. By comparing the resistance value of the foil strip 400 measured by the monitoring module 300 with a qualified threshold, foil strips 400 that meet the metal foil resistance requirements can be smoothly wound up, while foil strips 400 that do not meet the requirements can be re-deposited to adjust their resistance value. This process is simple and effective. By detecting and handling the resistance value of the foil strip 400 according to different cases, the deposition effect of the foil strip 400 in the deposition solution 500 is guaranteed, greatly improving the yield of metal foil processing and ensuring that the resistance value of the foil strip 400 meets the assembly requirements of various electronic devices.

[0046] In this embodiment, the monitoring module 300 includes a scanning unit and a calculation unit. Step two includes the following detailed steps: using the scanning unit to detect the volume of the resistive layer formed by the deposition operation; having the calculation unit calculate the resistance value of the resistive layer based on the volume value; comparing the resistance value with a qualified threshold; if the resistance value is not within the qualified threshold range, proceed to step three; otherwise, proceed to step four. By setting up a scanning unit and a calculation unit, the measurement and resistance value calculation of the resistive layer deposited on the surface of the foil strip 400 can be completed. The above structure is simple and reliable, ensuring that the measurement of the resistance value of the foil strip 400 can be completed efficiently and accurately, which can greatly improve the yield and processing efficiency of the foil strip 400 obtained by this metal foil processing method.

[0047] Preferably, the scanning unit and the arithmetic unit are communicatively connected to the control module. The control module can adjust the processing operation of the foil strip 400 by controlling the actions of each component. In this embodiment, the control module, scanning unit, and arithmetic unit are all conventional devices in the art, and their working methods and connection methods are existing technologies in the art and are well known to those skilled in the art, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0048] Further, step three includes the following detailed steps: rotating the feeding roller 110 around the second direction 720, so that the foil strip 400 whose resistance value is not within the qualified threshold range is moved back to be conveyed to the deposition chamber 220; rotating the feeding roller 110 around the first direction 710 again, so that the foil strip 400 is conveyed into the deposition chamber 220 again for deposition operation; after the deposition operation is completed, the monitoring module 300 measures the resistance value of the foil strip 400 after the deposition operation. If the resistance value is not within the qualified threshold range, return to the step of rotating the feeding roller 110 around the second direction 720, otherwise proceed to step four.

[0049] The aforementioned redeposition operation involves retrieving the foil strip 400 whose resistance value is outside the acceptable threshold range and re-entering it into the deposition chamber 220 to redeposit a resistive layer on the surface of the foil strip 400. In this embodiment, by changing the direction of the feed roller 110, the conveying direction of the foil strip 400 can be altered, and the positioning of the foil strip 400 can be maintained while changing direction. This ensures that the foil strip 400 can successfully complete the redeposition operation, thereby guaranteeing the production efficiency and yield of the metal foil.

[0050] Specifically, when the feeding roller 110 rotates around the first direction 710, the feeding roller 110 rotates clockwise; when the feeding roller 110 rotates around the second direction 720, the feeding roller 110 rotates counterclockwise.

[0051] Continue to refer to Figure 2 This embodiment also provides a metal foil processing apparatus that can be applied to the above-mentioned metal foil processing method. The metal foil processing apparatus includes a feeding roller 110, a deposition chamber 220, a take-up roller 130, and a monitoring module 300. The foil strip 400 is wound around the feeding roller 110. When the feeding roller 110 rotates around the first direction 710, the feeding roller 110 drives the foil strip 400 wound around the feeding roller 110 to be output. When the feeding roller 110 rotates around the second direction 720... At this time, the feeding roller 110 drives the foil strip 400, which has detached from the feeding roller 110, to move back onto the feeding roller 110; a deposition roller 120 is also provided in the deposition chamber 220, which is used to immerse the foil strip 400 in the deposition solution 500; a take-up roller 130 is used to recover the foil strip 400 that has passed through the deposition chamber 220; a monitoring module 300 is located between the deposition chamber 220 and the take-up roller 130, and is used to measure the resistance value of the foil strip 400 that has passed through the deposition chamber 220. Specifically, the control module can control the direction of rotation of the feeding roller 110.

[0052] This metal foil processing apparatus utilizes an optimized design where the feeding roller 110 can rotate around a first direction 710 and a second direction 720, making the movement direction of the foil strip 400 adjustable. This improvement eliminates the need for machine stopping and disassembly during direction changes; only the control module needs to adjust the direction of the feeding roller 110. The placement of the deposition roller 120 ensures the foil strip 400 is immersed in the deposition solution 500 while effectively preventing scratches and damage to its outer surface. This design is simple and reliable, efficiently and smoothly implementing the metal foil processing method provided in this embodiment. With the assistance of the control module, the automation level of the metal foil processing apparatus is further improved, ensuring the accuracy of the metal foil processing method and thus increasing the yield of the foil strip 400.

[0053] In this embodiment, the feeding roller 110 is disposed in the feeding cavity 210, and the winding roller 130 is disposed in the winding cavity 230. The feeding cavity 210, the deposition cavity 220, and the winding cavity 230 are sequentially connected, and the monitoring module 300 is disposed between the deposition cavity 220 and the winding cavity 230. The above structural improvement connects the various interconnected cavities sequentially, making the structure of this metal foil processing device simple and space-saving, thereby effectively reducing the production cost of this metal foil processing device. At the same time, it also simplifies the setting method of the foil strip 400 in this metal foil processing device and reduces the risk of positional displacement of the foil strip 400 during processing.

[0054] Furthermore, the feeding chamber 210 is provided with a first guide shaft 610 for raising the foil strip 400 output from the feeding chamber 210 to the conveying height; the deposition chamber 220 is provided with a second guide shaft 620 for raising the foil strip 400 input from the deposition chamber 220 to the conveying height and a third guide shaft 630 for raising the foil strip 400 output from the deposition chamber 220 to the conveying height; the winding chamber 230 is provided with a fourth guide shaft 640 for raising the foil strip 400 input from the winding chamber 230 to the conveying height; the conveying height is higher than the liquid surface of the deposition liquid 500. The above design ensures that the foil strip 400 not in the deposition process is not soaked in the deposition solution 500, thereby avoiding the situation where the foil strip 400 is soaked in the deposition solution 500 in advance and the foil strip 400 that has completed the deposition process cannot be removed from the deposition solution 500 in time. The above settings ensure the quality of the foil strip 400 deposition process, improve the quality of the resistive layer formation, and increase the probability that the foil strip 400 is qualified by the monitoring module 300 after the deposition process, thereby reducing the frequency of the foil strip 400 being returned due to unqualified detection, and thus improving the processing efficiency of the foil strip 400.

[0055] Specifically, the first guide shaft 610, the second guide shaft 620, the third guide shaft 630 and the fourth guide shaft 640 are rotatably connected to the cavity in which they are disposed. The above arrangement effectively avoids scratches and damage to the outer surface of the foil strip 400, ensuring that the foil strip 400 can always be deposited intact, thereby further guaranteeing the yield of the metal foil.

[0056] Example 2

[0057] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the metal foil processing method of this embodiment is basically the same as that of the first embodiment. The difference is that step three includes the following detailed steps: placing the foil strip 400 whose resistance value is not within the qualified threshold range into the deposition liquid 500 in the filling cavity 240, and then proceeding to step four.

[0058] The above steps allow foil strip 400 with resistance values ​​outside the acceptable threshold range to undergo a second deposition operation. This second deposition operation steadily increases the probability that the resistance value of foil strip 400 will be within acceptable limits. Furthermore, this design eliminates the need for the foil strip 400 to stop or slow down during movement, enabling this metal foil processing method to maintain extremely high processing efficiency while improving the yield rate of foil strip 400 deposition operations.

[0059] Continue to refer to Figure 4 This embodiment also provides a metal foil processing apparatus that can be applied to the above-mentioned metal foil processing method. The metal foil processing apparatus includes a feeding roller 110, a deposition chamber 220, a take-up roller 130, a monitoring module 300, and a replenishing chamber 240. The feeding roller 110 is used to drive the foil strip 400 wound on the feeding roller 110 to output. The deposition chamber 220 is also provided with a deposition roller 120, which is used to immerse the foil strip 400 in the deposition liquid 500. The take-up roller 130 is used to recover the foil strip 400 that has passed through the deposition chamber 220. The monitoring module 300 is located between the deposition chamber 220 and the take-up roller 130 and is used to measure the resistance value of the foil strip 400 that has passed through the deposition chamber 220. The replenishing chamber 240 contains the deposition liquid 500 and is also provided with a lifting and lowering pressing unit, which can press the foil strip 400 down into the deposition liquid 500 in the replenishing chamber 240.

[0060] Because this metal foil processing apparatus has a single conveying direction for the foil strip 400, it effectively reduces the probability of the foil strip 400 slowing down or stopping during conveying, thereby greatly improving the processing efficiency of the foil strip 400. The beneficial effect of the deposition roller 120 in Embodiment 2 is the same as that in Embodiment 1, and will not be elaborated here. The design of the pressing unit allows the foil strip 400 whose resistance value is not within the qualified threshold range to be deposited again without reducing its own conveying speed. By utilizing the cooperation between the monitoring module 300 and the replenishment cavity 240, a certain portion of the foil strip 400 can be selectively re-deposited. The above settings avoid the situation where the resistance value of the foil strip 400 within the qualified threshold range is adversely changed due to re-deposition, and also reduce the loss of the deposition liquid 500 in the replenishment cavity 240, reducing the frequency of replenishment of the deposition liquid 500. The above design is simple and reliable, and can efficiently and smoothly realize the metal foil processing method provided in this embodiment. With the cooperation of the control module, the automation level of this metal foil processing device can also be improved, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of the metal foil processing method, and thus improving the processing efficiency and yield of metal foil.

[0061] Specifically, the pressing unit includes a pressing roller 140, a drive unit 241, and a connecting frame 242. The pressing roller 140 is used to press down the foil strip 400, and is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 242. The drive unit 241 is used to drive the connecting frame 242 to move up and down in the vertical direction. Specifically, the control module is communicatively connected to the drive unit 241 and is used to control the raising and lowering of the connecting frame 242.

[0062] In this embodiment, both ends of the deposition roller 120 are coaxially provided with roller shafts 121, which slide on the lifting guide rail 221, which extends vertically. The vertical sliding design of the roller shafts 121 allows the deposition roller 120 to automatically adapt to the downward pressing action of the pressure roller 140 on the foil strip 400, thereby avoiding the foil strip 400 from becoming taut due to deformation under force, which could lead to scraping, friction, or even breakage. The above design is simple and reliable, allowing the metal foil processing device to operate smoothly even when the pressure roller 140 is pressing down, reducing the risk of damage to the foil strip 400, and further ensuring the yield of the foil strip 400 deposition operation.

[0063] Preferably, the feeding roller 110 is disposed within the feeding chamber 210, and the take-up roller 130 is disposed within the take-up chamber 230. The feeding chamber 210, deposition chamber 220, replenishment chamber 240, and take-up chamber 230 are sequentially connected, and the monitoring module 300 is disposed between the deposition chamber 220 and the replenishment chamber 240. By placing the monitoring module 300 between the deposition chamber 220 and the replenishment chamber 240, timely re-deposition of the foil strip 400 whose resistance value is not within the qualified threshold range can be performed without stopping the driving of the foil strip 400. Utilizing the configuration that the replenishment chamber 240 is simultaneously connected to both the deposition chamber 220 and the take-up chamber 230, the foil strip 400 that has completed the re-deposition operation can be directly recycled to the take-up roller 130, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of the re-deposition operation. The above structural improvement sequentially connects the various interconnected chambers, making the structure of this metal foil processing apparatus simple and space-saving, thereby effectively reducing the production cost of this metal foil processing apparatus.

[0064] Preferably, a first guide shaft 610 is rotatably connected inside the feeding chamber 210, a second guide shaft 620 and a third guide shaft 630 are rotatably connected inside the deposition chamber 220, and a fourth guide shaft 640 is rotatably connected inside the winding chamber 230. The positions of the above structures are the same as those of the corresponding components in Embodiment 1, and the conveying height in Embodiment 2 is simultaneously higher than the liquid level of the deposition liquid 500 in the deposition chamber 220 and the liquid level of the deposition liquid 500 in the replenishment chamber 240. The functions of the multiple guide shafts are the same as the beneficial effects described in Embodiment 1, and will not be elaborated further here.

[0065] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
