[0003] In PCB design, via holes are important components that connect different circuit layers. Via holes allow electrical signals to pass between different layers of the circuit board and are key to implementing multi-layer PCB design. However, simply opening via holes cannot connect different layers, so copper needs to be filled on the surface of the PCB circuit board to make the conductivity of the via holes better, reduce resistance, and improve current conduction efficiency.

However, the openings on the PCB circuit board are relatively small, which causes the PCB circuit board to sink into the electroplating tank. Due to the relatively strong surface tension of the liquid in the small holes, the surface tension makes it difficult for the bubbles to break through the hole wall and escape, resulting in poor copper filling effect of the holes on the PCB circuit board.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0045] In the following, the application is further described in conjunction with the drawings and the specific embodiments: Embodiment one:
[0046] According to one aspect of the application, a PCB copper filling device is provided.
[0047] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 6 The disclosed PCB copper filling device comprises a copper cylinder 1 having an electroplating tank 4 at the top for copper filling;
[0048] A floating table 2 is arranged in the electroplating tank 4, and one side of the floating table 2 is recessed to form a placing opening 5 for placing a PCB circuit board, and the placing opening 5 is connected with a de-bubble assembly 6;
[0049] A power unit 3 is connected to the top of the copper cylinder 1 and connected with the floating table 2 through a connecting block 7;
[0050] The de-bubble assembly 6 comprises a clamping sleeve 61, a vibrating table 62 and a vibrating block 63, the inner wall of the placing opening 5 is recessed to form a vibrating groove 8, and the vibrating table 62 is slidingly connected in the vibrating groove 8;
[0051] One side of the vibrating table 62 in the placing opening 5 is provided with a notch 9, and the notch 9 is fixedly connected with the clamping sleeve 61 for clamping the PCB circuit board;
[0052] One of the side walls of the vibration table 62 is provided with a sliding groove 10, a sliding block 11 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 10, springs are fixedly connected between the sliding block 11 and the sliding groove 10, and the side of the sliding block 11 extending out of the sliding groove 10 is fixedly connected with a vibration block 63.
[0053] A positioning groove 12 is formed in the bottom of the vibration table 62, a guide block 13 is slidably connected to the bottom of the positioning groove 12, and the bottom of the guide block 13 is fixedly connected with the inner wall of the vibration groove 8.
[0054] In this embodiment, it can be found that the top of the copper cylinder 1 is provided with a groove containing a copper electrolyte electroplating tank 4, which can be used for sinking a PCB circuit board, and the copper ions are deposited in the holes by using current to fill the holes, thereby realizing the copper filling work of the PCB circuit board. Figure 1 Figure 2 It can be found that the top of the copper cylinder 1 is provided with a power unit 3, the power unit 3 is connected with a floating table 2 through a connecting block 7, then a placing opening 5 for placing the PCB circuit board is formed on one side of the floating table 2, and a clamping sleeve 61 is fixedly connected at the placing opening 5, which can be used for clamping the PCB circuit board, then the connecting block 7 is driven to move downward by the power unit 3, so that the connecting block 7, the floating table 2 and the PCB circuit board move downward, thereby slowly sinking the PCB circuit board into the electroplating tank 4.
[0055] However, due to the small size of the holes of the PCB circuit board, when the PCB circuit board is sunk into the electroplating tank, the surface tension of the liquid in the small holes is relatively strong, and after the bubbles are formed in the holes, the surface tension makes it difficult for the bubbles to break through the hole wall and be discharged, thereby reducing the copper filling effect of the holes of the PCB circuit board.
[0056] Therefore, it can be found that the top of the copper cylinder 1 is provided with a power unit 3, the power unit 3 is connected with a floating table 2 through a connecting block 7, then a placing opening 5 for placing the PCB circuit board is formed on one side of the floating table 2, and a clamping sleeve 61 is fixedly connected at the placing opening 5, which can be used for clamping the PCB circuit board, then the connecting block 7 is driven to move downward by the power unit 3, so that the connecting block 7, the floating table 2 and the PCB circuit board move downward, thereby slowly sinking the PCB circuit board into the electroplating tank 4. Figure 2 Figure 3 It can be found that the top of the copper cylinder 1 is provided with a power unit 3, the power unit 3 is connected with a floating table 2 through a connecting block 7, then a placing opening 5 for placing the PCB circuit board is formed on one side of the floating table 2, and a clamping sleeve 61 is fixedly connected at the placing opening 5, which can be used for clamping the PCB circuit board, then the connecting block 7 is driven to move downward by the power unit 3, so that the connecting block 7, the floating table 2 and the PCB circuit board move downward, thereby slowly sinking the PCB circuit board into the electroplating tank 4.
[0057] When the PCB circuit board is sunk into the electroplating tank 4, the PCB circuit board gradually approaches the electrolyte, so that the electrolyte wets the outer wall of the PCB circuit board, then as the PCB circuit board gradually moves downward, the PCB circuit board gradually presses the electrolyte, so that the electrolyte climbs along the hole wall of the micro hole and squeezes out the air in the micro hole, thereby achieving the effect of removing bubbles.
[0058] However, the efficiency of the electrolyte climbing upward in the micro hole and squeezing out the air will decrease as the hole diameter decreases, which will cause the electrolyte to rapidly spread on the upper surface of the PCB circuit board under the action of tension when the PCB circuit board is completely sunk below the liquid level of the electrolyte, at this time, the electrolyte will rapidly spread on the upper surface of the PCB circuit board, which will cause the air in part of the micro holes to be unable to be completely discharged, thereby reducing the effect of removing bubbles.
[0059] Therefore, it can be found that the top of the copper cylinder 1 is provided with a power unit 3, the power unit 3 is connected with a floating table 2 through a connecting block 7, then a placing opening 5 for placing the PCB circuit board is formed on one side of the floating table 2, and a clamping sleeve 61 is fixedly connected at the placing opening 5, which can be used for clamping the PCB circuit board, then the connecting block 7 is driven to move downward by the power unit 3, so that the connecting block 7, the floating table 2 and the PCB circuit board move downward, thereby slowly sinking the PCB circuit board into the electroplating tank 4. Figure 4 Figure 6 It can be found that the sliding groove 10 is arranged on one side wall of the vibration table 62, the sliding block 11 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 10, the spring is fixedly connected between the sliding block 11 and the sliding groove 10, the sliding block 11 is fixedly connected on one side of the sliding groove 10, and the vibration block 63 is fixedly connected on the side of the sliding block 11 extending out of the sliding groove 10. When the floating table 2 is moved under the driving of the connecting block 7, the PCB circuit board is pressed on the page of the electrolyte and bears a large pressure, the pressure pushes the PCB circuit board to move upward relative to the floating table 2, the vibration block 63 is in contact with the inner wall of the vibration groove 8 to generate vibration, the liquid tension on the surface of the PCB circuit board is changed, the stress condition of the bubbles is changed, the bubbles are shaken off, and the bubble removing effect is further improved.
[0060] Since the vibration table 62 slides up and down in the vibration groove 8, in order to avoid that the vibration table 62 is inclined to affect the vibration effect, it can be found that Figure 6 A positioning groove 12 is arranged at the bottom of the vibration table 62, a guide block 13 is slidably connected in the positioning groove 12, the bottom of the guide block 13 is fixedly connected with the bottom of the vibration groove 8, the vibration table 62 is limited by the guide block 13 when sliding up and down, the movement of the vibration table 62 is more stable, the vibration effect is ensured, and the bubble removing is more stable.
[0061] In the further preferable embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 One side wall of the vibration groove 8 close to the vibration block 63 is gradually close to the vibration block 63 from bottom to top to form an inclined surface 14, the side of the vibration block 63 close to the inclined surface 14 is processed with an inclined angle 15 parallel to the inclined surface 14, and the inclined angle 15 and the inclined surface 14 are both provided with a plurality of protrusions for vibration at intervals from bottom to top.
[0062] In the embodiment, it can be found that Figure 4 and Figure 5 One side wall of the vibration groove 8 close to the vibration block 63 is gradually close to the vibration block 63 from bottom to top to form an inclined surface 14, the side of the vibration block 63 close to the inclined surface 14 is processed with an inclined angle 15 parallel to the inclined surface 14, and then a plurality of protrusions are arranged at the inclined angle 15 and the inclined surface 14 at intervals from bottom to top. When the vibration table 62 moves upward in the vibration groove 8, the inclined angle 15 of the vibration block 63 is in friction with the inclined surface 14 of the vibration groove 8, the protrusions of the vibration block 63 are shaken due to friction with the protrusions of the inclined surface 14, the vibration effect is generated, the effect of shaking off the bubbles is realized.
[0063] At this time, when the PCB circuit board is in contact with the electrolyte, the large pressure between the PCB circuit board and the electrolyte pushes the PCB circuit board to move relative to the floating table 2, so that the vibration table 62 moves from Figure 4 to Figure 5At this state, the protrusions provided on the vibration block 63 will rub and vibrate against the protrusions of the inclined surface 14 to vibrate the PCB circuit board to remove air bubbles, improving the air bubble removal effect.
[0064] When the PCB circuit board completely sinks to the bottom of the electroplating tank 4, at this time, the floating table 2 stops moving, causing the force on the PCB circuit board to disappear. Therefore, the pressure applied to the vibration table 62 disappears. At this time, under the push of the spring, the vibration block 63 squeezes the side wall of the vibration groove 8, and the inclined surface of the inclined surface 14 decomposes the received pressure, so that part of the pressure applied by the extrusion block 63 is converted into a traction force that moves the extrusion block 63 downward, so that the extrusion block 63 moves downward, resetting the vibration table 62. And during the reset process, the vibration block 63 will generate vibrations again, further strengthening the air bubble removal effect.
[0065] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 3 and Figure 6 shown, a plurality of through holes 16 are provided at intervals along the length direction on the top of the guide block 13. The through holes 16 extend downward and penetrate through the floating table 2. A jet hole 17 communicating with the through hole 16 is provided on the outer wall of the vibration table 62. One-way valves 18 are fixedly connected to the opening of the jet hole 17 and the bottom opening of the through hole 16;
[0066] The end of the jet hole 17 away from the through hole 16 gradually slopes upward, so that the axis of the jet hole 17 has an inclination angle with the horizontal plane;
[0067] The floating table 2, the vibration table 62 and the clamping sleeve 61 are all in a C shape.
[0068] In this embodiment, it can be observed that Figure 3 By arranging the floating table 2, the vibration table 62 and the clamping sleeve 61 in a C shape, an installation opening for installing the PCB circuit board can be reserved on one side of the floating table 2, the vibration table 62 and the clamping sleeve 61, which is convenient for installing the PCB circuit board, reduces the installation difficulty of the PCB circuit board, thereby reducing the use difficulty of the copper filling device, and further improving the copper filling efficiency of the PCB circuit board and the production efficiency of the PCB circuit board.
[0069] And observing Figure 6It can be found that, since the vibration platform 62 is in the shape of a Chinese character, the guide block 13 for assisting the vibration platform 62 to slide smoothly is also in the shape of a Chinese character, and a plurality of through holes 16 are arranged on the top of the guide block 13 in the length direction and the bottom of the through holes 16 extends downward and penetrates the floating platform 2, then a jet hole 17 is arranged on the outer wall of the vibration platform 62 and communicates with the through hole 16, and finally a one-way valve 18 is fixedly connected at the opening of the jet hole 17 and the bottom of the through hole 16, at this time, when the vibration platform 62 is forced to move upward, the gap between the positioning groove 12 and the guide block 13 increases, thereby generating negative pressure, then the negative pressure in the through hole 16 increases, the one-way valve 18 at the bottom of the through hole 16 is opened, and then the electrolyte is sucked into the through hole 16 and the gap. After the PCB circuit board is completely immersed in the bottom of the electrolytic tank 4, when the vibration platform 62 is reset, the gap is reduced, the electrolyte in the gap is pressurized, at this time, the one-way valve 18 at the jet hole 17 is opened, and the electrolyte is ejected through the jet hole 17, so as to use the jet to flush the lower surface of the PCB circuit board, disturb the stress distribution of the lower surface of the PCB circuit board, thereby destroying the stress of the bubbles in the micro holes, and further enhancing the bubble removal effect.
[0070] And in Figure 6 It can be found that the end of the jet hole 17 away from the through hole 16 gradually inclines upward, so that the axis of the jet hole 17 has an inclination angle with the horizontal plane, for making the electrolyte in the jet hole 17 fly upward when ejected, so that the electrolyte can flush the lower surface of the PCB circuit board, which can effectively ensure the operation stability of the jet bubble removal.
[0071] In a further preferred embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 3 And Figure 4 The inner wall of the clamping sleeve 61 is concave and forms a clamping groove 19 for clamping the PCB circuit board, and the depth of the clamping groove 19 is greater than the width of the PCB circuit board.
[0072] In this embodiment, in combination with Figure 3 And Figure 4 It can be found that, by arranging the clamping groove 19 on the inner wall of the clamping sleeve 61, the PCB circuit board can be clamped, which makes the installation of the PCB circuit board more convenient and simple, thereby shortening the preparation time of the PCB circuit board during copper filling and improving the copper filling efficiency of the PCB circuit board.
[0073] And by making the depth of the clamping groove 19 greater than the width of the PCB circuit board, the PCB circuit board can be completely inserted into the clamping groove 19 during installation, so that the edges of the PCB circuit board do not protrude outside the clamping sleeve 61, and when the floating platform 2 moves up and down, the PCB circuit board will not be in contact with the tank wall of the electrolytic tank 4, thereby achieving the protection effect of the PCB circuit board, reducing the scrap rate of the PCB circuit board, and thereby reducing the production cost of the PCB circuit board.
