Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of solder paste coating, and in particular to a solder paste coating device. Background Art
[0002] Solder paste, a new type of soldering material that emerged alongside SMT, is a paste-like mixture of solder powder, flux, and other surfactants and thixotropic agents. It's primarily used in the SMT industry for soldering electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, and integrated circuits on printed circuit boards (PCBs). It's an essential material in the assembly and production of servers and PCs.
[0003] During the assembly and production of servers and PCs, it is common for the thermal paste on the accessory radiators used for assembly to expire due to long storage times. The expired solder paste on the radiators must be replaced and refurbished before they can be reused in assembly and production.
[0004] Currently, the solder paste refurbishment method for radiators involves scraping off the expired solder paste, placing a screen printing jig on the radiator with one hand, and using a spatula with the other hand to scoop solder paste from the can onto the screen printing jig. The spatula is then used to apply the solder paste, and the screen printing jig is then removed. The refurbished radiator is then returned to its original box. However, this method involves many manual steps, making the movements cumbersome and inefficient. Frequent contact with the solder paste can easily cause it to stick to the hands, making it difficult to clean. A contaminated radiator that ends up in the hands of customers can easily lead to complaints. Using commercially available automated application devices is expensive and costly. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to propose and design a solder paste brushing device to address the problems that the solder paste renovation operation of the existing radiator is cumbersome, inefficient, and easy to stick to the hands and contaminate the radiator body.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above technical problems is: a solder paste brushing device, including a base, a carrier plate assembly is provided on the base, the carrier plate assembly is used to place the radiator to limit the radiator, a lifting drive mechanism is installed on the base, the lifting drive mechanism is connected to a pressure spring mechanism and a screen printing assembly, the pressure spring mechanism includes a pressing piston assembly, a solder paste box is installed on the pressing piston assembly, the solder paste box is located in the screen printing assembly, a lower outlet is provided at the bottom of the solder paste box, a self-locking member is provided at the lower outlet of the solder paste box, and the self-locking member A solder paste hole is provided on the top, and the self-locking part can be extended into the inner cavity of the solder paste box. When the self-locking part is extended into the inner cavity of the solder paste box, the solder paste hole is connected to the inner cavity of the solder paste box. When the self-locking part is not extended into the inner cavity of the solder paste box, the lower outlet of the solder paste box is blocked. A screen printing port is provided on the screen printing component at a position corresponding to the lower outlet of the solder paste box, and a scraper is provided at the screen printing port. A scraper driving component is connected to the scraper, and a solder paste through hole is provided on the scraper. The scraper driving component can drive the scraper to move horizontally and connect the lower outlet of the solder paste box with the screen printing port through the solder paste through hole. During use, the radiator is mounted on the carrier assembly, and the pressure spring mechanism and the screen printing assembly move downward under the drive of the lifting drive mechanism. When the pressure spring mechanism drops to the lowest point, the self-locking part pushes upward, and the solder paste hole is connected to the inner cavity of the solder paste box. At this time, it is also connected to the solder paste through-hole on the scraper and the screen printing port. The solder paste in the solder paste box flows out through the solder paste through-hole and fills the radiator coating surface through the screen printing port. After filling, the scraper is driven by the scraper drive assembly to move horizontally, so that the solder paste through-hole on the scraper is staggered and no longer connected, thereby cutting off the solder paste flow. Then it moves upward, and the self-locking part resets and no longer connects to the inner cavity of the solder paste box. The scraper resets and resumes the conductive state. The solder paste holding part of the device is designed with a self-locking device to prevent the solder paste from overflowing. During the operation, no manual contact with the solder paste is required, avoiding the risk of manual contact with the solder paste causing the solder paste to contaminate other parts of the radiator. Only the lifting drive assembly needs to be operated, and a motor or other power device can also be installed to drive it, reducing the cumbersome steps of the original simple jig coating method and greatly improving the operation efficiency.

The extension rod is threadedly connected to the piston rod. The upper portion of the extension rod is provided with a cylindrical step, which moves up and down with the solder paste box lid to reflect the amount of solder paste in the solder paste box so that the solder paste can be replenished in time. It is also used to pull up the solder paste box lid when replacing and replenishing the solder paste box, making it convenient to remove the solder paste box for replenishment. An end cap is mounted on the spring seat, which is threadedly connected to the spring seat. The end cap is provided with an extension rod through hole, through which the extension rod passes. The extension rod and the end cap can move relative to each other. The upper end of the first spring is connected to the end cap, and the lower end of the first spring is connected to the upper end surface of the piston rod. When the solder paste box is filled with solder paste, the solder paste box lid is in an upward position, and the first spring is in a compressed state, which can continuously provide extrusion force to the solder paste box lid to continuously squeeze the solder paste in the solder paste box. When the spring seat moves downward, it can drive the end cap downward, thereby compressing the first spring to provide an extrusion force.
[0008] Furthermore, the self-locking component includes a plugging body, an upper stopper is provided on the upper portion of the plugging body, a lower stopper is provided on the lower portion of the plugging body, the outer diameter of the plugging body is adapted to the lower outlet of the solder paste box, the plugging body has an inner cavity with an upper opening, the solder paste hole is located on the side wall of the plugging body and is connected to the inner cavity of the plugging body, the upper stopper is located in the solder paste box, a second spring is mounted on the outer portion of the plugging body, the lower end of the second spring is connected to the lower stopper, and the upper end of the second spring is connected to the solder paste box.

In this state, the solder paste can flow out of the solder paste hole.
[0009] Furthermore, the screen printing assembly includes a screen printing body, which is provided with a cylindrical groove. The solder paste box is installed in the cylindrical groove. The cylindrical groove is used to precisely limit the solder paste box so that the self-locking part at the bottom of the solder paste box can accurately pass through the self-locking part opening; the bottom of the cylindrical groove is provided with a self-locking part opening and a screen printing hole. The shape of the screen printing hole can be designed into the required shape according to needs, and the thickness of the screen printing hole is the thickness of the solder paste coating; the diameter of the self-locking part opening is larger than the diameter of the screen printing hole, and a scraper groove is provided on the screen printing body. The scraper is installed in the scraper groove, and the scraper groove can guide the translation of the scraper; the scraper groove is located at the self-locking part opening, and the width of the scraper groove is smaller than the diameter of the self-locking part opening, forming a scraper groove step to share the pressure of the self-locking part on the scraper and reduce the friction of the scraper movement. A sink groove is provided at the bottom of the screen printing body for connecting the scraper connecting rod; a guide post hole is also provided on the screen printing body for installation on the guide post for guidance. A third spring is provided at the connection between the screen printing body and the guide post. When the lifting drive mechanism moves downward, the third spring compresses the third spring to apply pressure to the screen printing body, so that the bottom surface of the screen printing hole can fit tightly with the coating surface of the radiator, preventing gaps from overflowing when solder paste is filled.
[0010] Furthermore, the scraper drive assembly includes a scraper connecting rod and a chute slider. The chute slider is provided with a roller groove, which is a chute arranged in a front-to-back tilt. One end of the scraper connecting rod is threadedly connected to the scraper, and the other end of the scraper connecting rod is connected to the roller groove via a roller. By providing a roller groove that is tilted in a front-to-back tilt, the roller moves in the roller groove, allowing the scraper to move back and forth, thereby controlling the disconnection or connection of the channel formed by the screen printing hole and the lower outlet of the self-locking member, achieving linkage with the screen printing assembly and the pressure spring mechanism. The extrusion and cutting of the solder paste can be completed only by the action of the lifting drive mechanism. The scraper connecting rod is provided with a connecting rod fixing block, which is used to limit the scraper connecting rod to only lateral movement. The chute slider is also provided with a connecting rod fixing groove, which is used to connect the scraper assembly connecting rod.
[0011] Furthermore, the lifting drive mechanism includes a slider assembly and a cam assembly, the pressure spring mechanism and the screen printing assembly are both installed on the slider assembly, and the cam assembly is connected to the slider assembly and the scraper drive assembly.

The screen body, spring seat, and chute slider are all assembled on the slider and driven by the slider, allowing a single drive to complete multiple actions.
[0013] Furthermore, the connecting block is provided with a first latch, which is aligned with the notch of the spring seat and is used to lock the pressing piston assembly when replacing the solder paste, facilitating the removal or installation of the solder paste box. The slider is provided with a second latch, which is aligned with the notch of the spring seat and is used to release the pressing piston assembly when replacing the solder paste, allowing the pressing piston assembly to move upward, facilitating the removal or installation of the solder paste box. In normal operation, the second latch is in a state of locking the pressing piston assembly. Both the first and second latches are removable.
[0014] Furthermore, the cam assembly includes a rotating wheel, each of which has a cam groove on its two sides. A scraper assembly connecting rod is connected to one of the cam grooves, and a slider assembly connecting rod is connected to the other cam groove.

A turning handle is installed on the rotating wheel shaft. By shaking the turning handle, the rotating wheel can be driven to rotate, driving the lower ends of the limiting scraper assembly connecting rod and the slider assembly connecting rod to move along the cam groove.
[0015] Furthermore, a spring top piece is installed on the base. The spring top piece is located on one side of the rotating wheel. A V-shaped groove is provided on the circumferential surface of the rotating wheel, and the spring top piece is pressed against the circumferential surface of the rotating wheel. The V-shaped groove serves as the positioning point of the initial position; the spring designed in the spring top piece is in a compressed state, and pressure is continuously applied to the circumferential surface of the rotating wheel through the spring top piece. When the rotating wheel rotates until the spring top piece is aligned with the V-shaped groove, the spring top piece is pushed out and stuck in the V-shaped groove, and the rotation resistance of the rotating wheel increases, so that the rotating wheel will not rotate by itself without external force, thereby achieving the initial position positioning effect. The spring top piece includes a push rod, a spring cavity tube, a cavity tube end cover and a fourth spring. The fourth spring is provided in the spring cavity tube, and one end of the fourth spring is connected to the push rod.

A slider 303 is provided between the two guide pillars 301, and the slider 303 is slidably connected to the guide pillars 301 through an upper connecting arm 306 and a lower connecting arm 307. The guide pillars 301 guide the up and down movement of the slider 303. A vertically arranged slide groove 309 is provided on the slider 303, and the inclined groove slider 701 is installed in the slide groove 309, and the slide groove 309 provides an installation position for the inclined groove slider 701; the spring seat 401 is installed on the upper connecting arm 306, and the screen body 501 is installed on the lower connecting arm 307. A third spring 503 is provided between the screen body 501 and the lower connecting arm 307. The third spring 503 is sleeved on the guide column 301, and one end of the third spring 503 is connected to the screen body 501, and the other end of the third spring 503 is connected to the lower connecting arm 307. By compressing the third spring 503, pressure is applied to the screen body 501, so that the bottom surface of the screen printing hole 505 can be closely fitted with the radiator coating surface. The screen body 501, the spring seat 401, and the inclined groove slider 701 are all assembled on the slider 303 and driven by the slider 303. Only one drive is required to complete multiple actions. Among them, see Figures 21 to 25 The cam assembly includes a rotating wheel 310, each of which has a cam groove 315 on each side. A scraper assembly connecting rod 314 is connected to one cam groove 315, and a slider assembly connecting rod 313 is connected to the other cam groove 315. The two cam grooves 315 are different cam grooves 315, which enable the scraper assembly and the slider assembly to move at different amplitudes. The lower end of the scraper assembly connecting rod 314 is connected to the cam groove 315 via a roller, and the upper end of the scraper assembly connecting rod 314 is connected to the inclined groove slider 701. The lower end of the slider assembly connecting rod 313 is connected to the cam groove 315 via a roller, and the upper end of the slider assembly connecting rod 313 is connected to the slider 303. Linear bearings are installed on both the scraper assembly connecting rod 314 and the slider assembly connecting rod 313. The linear bearings are used to limit the scraper assembly connecting rod 314 and the slider assembly connecting rod 313 to vertical movement. The rotating shaft is connected to a wheel shaft 311, which is connected to the rotating wheel 310 through a keyway and key. A turning handle 312 is mounted on the rotating wheel shaft 311. By shaking the turning handle 312, the rotating wheel 310 is rotated, driving the lower ends of the limiting scraper assembly connecting rod 314 and the slider assembly connecting rod 313 to move along the cam groove 315. A spring top member 9 is mounted on the base 1. The spring top member 9 is located on one side of the rotating wheel 310. The circumferential surface of the rotating wheel 310 is provided with a V-shaped groove 316, and the spring top member 9 presses against the circumferential surface of the rotating wheel 310. See Figure 25The V-shaped groove 316 serves as the initial position positioning point. The spring of the spring top member 9 is in a compressed state. The spring top member 9 continuously applies pressure to the circumferential surface of the rotating wheel 310. When the rotating wheel 310 rotates until the spring top member 9 is aligned with the V-shaped groove 316, the spring top member 9 is pushed out and locked into the V-shaped groove 316. The rotation resistance of the rotating wheel 310 increases, so that the rotating wheel 310 will not rotate on its own without external force, thus achieving the initial position positioning effect. Figure 26 The spring top member 9 includes a top rod 901, a spring cavity tube 903, a cavity tube end cover 904 and a fourth spring 902. The fourth spring 902 is arranged in the spring cavity tube 903. One end of the fourth spring 902 is connected to the top rod 901. The fourth spring 902 is in a compressed state and can give the top rod 901 an outward pushing force.
[0058] See also Figure 2 and Figure 16 In order to facilitate the replacement of the solder paste box 6, a first clip 304 is detachably mounted on the connecting block 302, and the first clip 304 is aligned with the notch 408 of the spring seat 401, and is used to lock the pressing piston assembly when replacing the solder paste, thereby facilitating the removal or installation of the solder paste box 6; a second clip 305 is detachably mounted on the slider 303, and the second clip 305 is aligned with the notch 408 of the spring seat 401, and is used to loosen the pressing piston assembly when replacing the solder paste, so that the pressing piston assembly can move upward, thereby facilitating the removal or installation of the solder paste box 6. In normal state, the second clip 305 is in a state of locking the pressing piston assembly.
[0059] The operating principle is as follows: Turning the knob 312 places the wheel 310 in its initial position. Initially, the solder paste through-holes 801 on the scraper 8 are in contact with the screen printing holes 505 of the screen printing assembly 5. Adjust the adjustment blocks 203 of the two platforms 202 on the slide 204 to match the size of the radiator. Place the two radiators, after removing expired solder paste, on the respective platforms 202. Slide the slide 204 to its leftmost or rightmost end, so that the left or right radiator's coating surface is aligned vertically with the screen printing opening of the screen printing assembly 5. Turning the knob 312 clockwise rotates the wheel 310, driving the slider 303 downward. This also moves the pressure spring mechanism 4 and the screen printing assembly 5 downward. After the screen printing holes 505 of the screen printing assembly 5 contact the radiator's coating surface, the slider 303 continues its downward movement, applying a downward force to the screen printing assembly 5 via the third spring 503, bringing the screen printing holes 505 into close contact with the radiator's coating surface. Continue to turn the handle 312, and after the lower end surface of the self-locking member 402 of the pressure spring mechanism 4 contacts the upper plane of the scraper 8, the pressure spring mechanism 4 continues to move downward. Since the lower end surface of the self-locking member 402 has already pressed against the plane of the scraper 8, the lower outlet 601 of the solder paste box 6 and the self-locking member 402 begin to move relative to each other, and the self-locking member 402 is pushed upward relative to the solder paste box 6. The solder paste hole 4024 on the self-locking member 402 is exposed from the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the solder paste box 6. At this time, the solder paste hole 4024 is aligned with the self-locking member 402. The lower outlet 601 of the lock 402, the solder paste through hole 801, and the screen printing port form a channel. The solder paste in the solder paste box 6 flows along the channel to the radiator coating surface for filling. After the solder paste hole 4024 is completely exposed from the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the solder paste box 6, the pressure spring mechanism 4 moves downward to the lowest point; continue to rotate the handle 312, and the pressure spring mechanism 4 continues to remain at the lowest point under the action of the cam groove 315 on the rotating wheel 310. The scraper 8 begins to move horizontally under the action of the cam groove 315. The solder paste through hole 801 on the scraper 8 is staggered with the screen printing hole 505 of the screen printing assembly 5 and the lower end surface outlet of the self-locking member 402, thereby cutting off the path for the solder paste to flow to the coating surface of the radiator; the handle 312 is continuously rotated, and the scraper 8 continues to maintain the through hole and the screen printing hole 505 staggered under the action of the cam groove 315. The pressure spring mechanism 4 starts to move upward under the drive of the slider 303, and the self-locking member 402 returns to its original state under the action of the spring force, so that the solder paste hole 4024 sinks into the Inside the lower outlet 601 of the solder paste box 6, seal the lower outlet 601 and cut off the solder paste outflow channel; continue to rotate the handle 312, and the scraper 8, under the action of the cam groove 315, moves horizontally to restore the conductive state between the solder paste through-hole 801 and the screen printing hole 505; continue to rotate the handle 312, and the slider 303 drives the pressure spring mechanism 4 and the screen printing assembly 5 upward. When the wheel 310 returns to the initial position, the handle 312 has rotated 360 degrees, completing one solder paste application. Move the slide 204 to the other end, remove the heat sink with the solder paste applied, and then vertically align the coated surface of the other uncoated heat sink with the screen printing hole. Rotate the handle 312 clockwise one full circle to complete the solder paste application.
