[0046] In the related art, conventional electrolytic capacitors mainly include SMD electrolytic capacitors and plug-in electrolytic capacitors. Among them, SMD electrolytic capacitors are usually installed upright on the circuit board, but due to the high body of the SMD electrolytic capacitor, some application scenarios are limited in structure. For example, the application of SMD electrolytic capacitors in remote controls may be space-constrained; in addition, for plug-in electrolytic capacitors, machines cannot be used to grab them during the preparation of the circuit board. Therefore, staff are currently required to manually insert the plug-in electrolytic capacitors into the circuit board, which has poor full automation and manufacturability; in addition, after the conventional plug-in electrolytic capacitors are inserted into the circuit board, they must be fixed by wave soldering, which wastes resources, has many preparation processes, and is complex in process. Quality problems such as continuous soldering and voids may also occur; and during wave soldering, the flux may vaporize and stick to the circuit board, causing the circuit board to be scrapped.

[0047] Based on the above situation, the embodiments of the present application propose an electrolytic capacitor, a circuit board, a remote control, an air-conditioning system and a circuit board preparation process, aiming to reduce the limitations of the electrolytic capacitor due to application scenarios, improve the full automation and manufacturability during circuit board preparation, reduce labor costs, simplify the preparation process, and improve the quality of circuit boards.

[0048] The embodiments of the present application are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 11 is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electrolytic capacitor provided by an embodiment of the present application. In one embodiment, the electrolytic capacitor 1 of the embodiment of the present application is used to be installed on a circuit board 2, and the circuit board 2 is provided with a mounting groove 21.

[0050] The electrolytic capacitor 1 includes but is not limited to an extension pin 11 , and the extension pin 11 is installed in the installation slot 21 .

[0051] It should be understood that the electrolytic capacitor 1 is used to be identified and sucked by a placement machine, and is clamped upside down on the circuit board 2 .

[0052] It should be understood that the mounting slot 21 provided on the circuit board 2 actually includes a pad in contact with the extended pin 11 . Since the extended pin 11 is essentially a pin of the electrolytic capacitor 1 , it needs to have conductive ability to enable the electrolytic capacitor to participate in the normal operation of the circuit board 2 .

[0053] When installing the electrolytic capacitor 1, the chip suction machine will identify the bottom of the electrolytic capacitor 1, suck up the electrolytic capacitor 1 by sucking the bottom of the electrolytic capacitor 1, align the extended pin 11 on the electrolytic capacitor 1 with the position of the installation groove 21, and place it on the circuit board 2 like other surface-mount devices to complete the installation of the electrolytic capacitor 1.

[0054] It should be noted that the size of the pad provided in the mounting groove 21 is varied and may be the following embodiments or other embodiments, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0055] In one embodiment, a solder pad is integrally disposed inside the mounting groove 21 .

In one embodiment, the electrolytic capacitor also includes but is not limited to ordinary pins 12. In this embodiment, one of the two pins of the electrolytic capacitor 1 is an extension pin 11, and the other pin is an ordinary pin 12. Since the extension pin 11 is longer than the ordinary pin 12, the extension pin 11 can be mounted on the mounting slot 21 of the circuit board 2, providing a certain support capacity for the electrolytic capacitor 1, so that the electrolytic capacitor 1 can be stably inverted, and a small part of the ordinary pin 12 will extend out of the bottom 13 of the electrolytic capacitor 1, so that when the electrolytic capacitor 1 is inverted by the extension pin 11, the ordinary pin 12 will be stuck on the pad, and a certain support force is provided by the clamping, so that the ordinary pin 12 can assist the extension pin 11 in supporting, thereby improving the stability of the inversion of the electrolytic capacitor 1 and reducing the cost of the electrolytic capacitor 1.

Figure 5 The rectangle in the figure is used to indicate other patch materials. In one embodiment, the extension pin 11 is bent, and when the electrolytic capacitor 1 is mounted upside down, the electrolytic capacitor 1 will bulge a portion of its height.

In one embodiment, the extension pin 11 is located at the bottom 13 of the electrolytic capacitor 1, one end of the extension pin 11 is connected to the inside of the electrolytic capacitor 1, and the other end protrudes from the edge of the bottom 13 of the electrolytic capacitor 1, and the bottom 13 of the electrolytic capacitor 1 is used to be recognized and sucked by the placement machine.

[0063] like Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7 In one embodiment, one end of the extension pin 11 that contacts the electrolytic capacitor 1 body is located inside the bottom 13 of the electrolytic capacitor 1 , and the other end extends from the bottom 13 and protrudes from the bottom 13 .

[0064] In one embodiment, both pins of the electrolytic capacitor 1 are extended pins 11, one of the extended pins 11 is located at the bottom 13 of the electrolytic capacitor 1, one end of the extended pin 11 is connected to the inside of the electrolytic capacitor 1, and the other end protrudes from the edge of the bottom 13 of the electrolytic capacitor 1; the other extended pin 11 has one end in contact with the body of the electrolytic capacitor 1 and is located inside the bottom 13 of the electrolytic capacitor 1, and the other end extends from the bottom 13 and protrudes from the bottom 13.

[0065] The electrolytic capacitor of the embodiment of the present application is embedded in the mounting groove of the circuit board through an extended pin card, so that the electrolytic capacitor can be mounted inverted on the circuit board, thereby reducing the height of the electrolytic capacitor at the front of the circuit board, and making the electrolytic capacitor suitable for more application scenarios; secondly, since the electrolytic capacitor of the embodiment of the present application can be identified and absorbed by the placement machine and mounted on the circuit board, the full automation and manufacturability are improved; secondly, it can also reduce manual operations and reduce labor and maintenance costs; in addition, since the electrolytic capacitor of the embodiment of the present application is installed on the circuit board by patch method like other patch materials, the wave soldering process generated by the plug-in electrolytic capacitor can be reduced, thereby saving resources and reducing the complexity of the preparation process and process; in addition, since there is no need to go through the wave soldering process during the preparation of the circuit board, the occurrence of quality problems such as continuous soldering and voids can also be avoided, thereby improving the quality of the circuit board.

[0066] Based on the structures of the electrolytic capacitors in the above-mentioned embodiments, multiple embodiments of the circuit board provided by the present application are respectively proposed below.

[0067] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the circuit board 2 includes the electrolytic capacitor 1 as provided in the first aspect, and is provided with a mounting groove 21 for inverted mounting of the extended pin 11 .

[0068] like Figure 8 As shown, Figure 81 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a spring in a circuit board provided by an embodiment of the present application. In one embodiment, the circuit board 2 further includes a spring 22, the spring 22 includes but is not limited to a spring body 221 and an auxiliary platform 222, the spring body 221 is connected to the auxiliary platform 222, the auxiliary platform 222 is installed on the circuit board 2, and the auxiliary platform 222 is used to be recognized and sucked by the placement machine.

[0069] The spring of the embodiment of the present application is provided with an auxiliary platform so that the spring can be identified and absorbed by the placement machine and installed on the circuit board, thereby improving full automation and manufacturability; secondly, it can also reduce manual operations and reduce labor and maintenance costs; in addition, since the spring of the embodiment of the present application can be installed on the circuit board by placement through the auxiliary platform like other patch materials, the wave soldering process caused by manual installation of the spring can be reduced, thereby saving resources and reducing the complexity of the preparation process and process; in addition, since there is no need to go through the wave soldering process during the preparation of the circuit board, it can also avoid the occurrence of quality problems such as continuous soldering and voids, thereby improving the quality of the circuit board.

[0070] The following is an application scenario of the spring embodiment in practice.

[0071] In one embodiment, when the spring 22 needs to be mounted on the circuit board 2, the placement machine identifies the auxiliary platform 222 on the spring, and absorbs the auxiliary platform 222 to absorb the entire spring 22, and places the entire auxiliary platform 222 on the corresponding pad in the circuit board 2 to complete the device placement work, and solders the auxiliary platform 222 and the pad together by soldering, thereby completing the installation of the spring 22.

[0072] In one embodiment, when the spring needs to be clamped on the circuit board 2, the placement machine identifies the auxiliary platform 222 on the spring, and absorbs the auxiliary platform 222 to absorb the entire spring 22, and clamps the auxiliary platform 222 in the corresponding clamping slot on the circuit board 2 to complete the clamping installation of the spring 22.

The spring 22 presses the battery in the battery compartment of the remote control so that the battery can be in close contact with the corresponding battery connecting sheet to form a stable power circuit, thereby ensuring normal power supply of the remote control.

[0075] It should be understood that when the spring 22 is used as a battery spring, the auxiliary platform 222 can be used as a battery positive terminal contact or a battery negative terminal contact.

[0080] In one embodiment, the spring body 221 includes but is not limited to an extension portion 2211 , and the spring body 221 is fixed to the auxiliary platform 222 via the extension portion 2211 .

[0081] Since the spring body 221 is extended by the extension portion 2211 , the spring 22 will not hinder the SMT machine from sucking the auxiliary platform 222 when the SMT machine sucks it.

[0082] It should be understood that the specific manner in which the spring body 221 is fixed to the auxiliary platform 222 via the extension portion 2211 is varied, and the present application does not limit this.

When a certain external force is applied, the SMT material will detach from the pad.

[0105] Step S1130, performing reflow soldering on the circuit board in a reflow furnace so that the patch material is fixed to the circuit board through solder paste.

[0106] The reflow oven will generate high temperature, causing some flux and other additives in the solder paste to volatilize, and the tin powder in the solder paste will melt to form liquid solder. During the cooling process of the reflow oven, the liquid tin solidifies to form tin blocks that stick to the pads on the circuit board, so that the pins and pads of the patch material are fixedly connected, so that the patch material can be fixed to the circuit board.

[0107] In one embodiment, the reflow furnace heats the installation slot 21 where the extension pin 11 of the electrolytic capacitor 1 is located to liquefy the solder paste in the installation slot 21.

[0109] Step S1210, using a chip mounter to absorb the bottom of the electrolytic capacitor and place the extended pins in the mounting groove, so that the electrolytic capacitor is mounted upside down on the circuit board.

[0110] The electrolytic capacitor 1 has an extended pin 11. The placement machine identifies and absorbs the bottom of the electrolytic capacitor 1, and inverts the electrolytic capacitor 1 on the mounting groove 21 of the circuit board. There is a solder pad on the mounting groove 21. The solder pad is coated with solder paste with a certain viscosity through step S1110, so that the electrolytic capacitor 1 can be stably mounted on the circuit board 2 and wait for subsequent welding.

Based on the spring 22, step S1120 includes but is not limited to the following sub-steps.

[0112] Step S1310, using the placement machine to suck the auxiliary platform of the spring and place the spring on the circuit board.

[0113] The auxiliary platform 222 is identified by the placement machine, so that the spring 22 can be sucked by the placement machine and placed at a corresponding position on the circuit board.

[0114] It should be understood that the specific content of the placement here is diverse and can be the following embodiments.

[0115] In one embodiment, the spring 22 is mounted on the circuit board by means of a clamping method. At this time, the mounting machine places the auxiliary platform 222 of the spring 22 at a corresponding clamping position on the circuit board to complete the installation process of the spring 22.

[0118] Step S1410, performing optical inspection, glue dispensing, burning, assembly and testing on the circuit board.

[0119] In one embodiment, the quality of solder on the pads on the surface of the circuit board is detected by optical detection processing to ensure that the patch material is soldered in place.
