Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of through silicon via adapter plates, and in particular to a combined through silicon via adapter plate. Background Art

[0002] Through Silicon Via (TSV) is a technology that uses a silicon substrate and realizes vertical interconnection inside it. It is mainly used in the connection of integrated circuit (IC) packaging and microelectronic devices. It creates vias in the silicon substrate so that electrical signals or data can be transmitted vertically from one silicon layer to another. TSV is an important part of three-dimensional integrated circuit (3D IC) technology and is widely used in semiconductor manufacturing, packaging, communication, storage and other fields. TSV is usually integrated into larger systems, such as high-performance computers, servers, storage systems, communication equipment, etc. It is usually part of 3D IC and works with other modules to achieve higher integration and performance. Signal transmission and power management: In the device, the TSV connects the circuits of different layers through internal vias to provide low-latency and high-bandwidth support for signal transmission between chips. At the same time, it is also responsible for providing power and ground connections for each layer to ensure the stable operation of the system. Maintenance and update: During use, the TSV needs to be regularly maintained and inspected to ensure the reliability of electrical connections. At the same time, as technology advances, design updates or upgrades may also be required to adapt to new application requirements.

This not only greatly improves the repair efficiency and reduces the complexity of operation, but also reduces the potential risks and damages during the disassembly process, providing great convenience for the maintenance and management of high-density electronic equipment.

The tension spring A203 can realize the two protective sleeves 2 to be retracted close to each other. At the same time, under the action of the sealing ring 201 and the sealing groove 202, the sealing between the two protective sleeves 2 can be achieved. When the protective cover 2 is opened, the triangular block 208 is not in contact with the TSV adapter board body 1 , so that the mounting legs 205 rotate under their own weight and move out of the protective cover 2 .

[0032] like Figure 6 As shown, the outer wall of the slider 3 is slidably matched with the inner wall of the slide groove 103, and a positioning block 301 is slidably matched with the inner wall of the slider 3.

By rotating the worm 404 connected to the knob 405, the worm 404 can drive the rotating shaft 402 connected to the worm wheel 403 to rotate, so that the rotating shaft 402 can drive the connected connecting rod group 401 to rotate, thereby driving the combination plug 6 on the adjustment plate 5 to move to a suitable position.

[0034] like Figure 7As shown, a connecting block 501 is fixedly connected to the adjusting plate 5 , and the connecting block 501 is rotatably connected to the other end of the connecting rod assembly 401 .

[0035] like Figure 8 As shown, the inner wall of the bottom end of the combination plug 6 is symmetrically structured and slidably equipped with two limit blocks 601, the outer ends of the limit blocks 601 are provided with inclined surfaces, a tension spring B602 is connected and fixedly arranged between the two limit blocks 601, and a contact rod 603 is connected and fixedly arranged on the upper side of the inner ends of the limit blocks 601. Under the action of the tension spring B602, the limit blocks 601 are inserted into the limit ring groove 701 in the combination sleeve 7.

[0036] A pressing block 604 is provided on the inner wall of the top of the combination plug 6 in a sliding manner. A push sleeve 605 is fixedly provided at one end of the pressing block 604 located in the combination plug 6. A conical hole 606 is provided at the bottom of the push sleeve 605. The inner wall of the conical hole 606 is provided in sliding contact with the top of the contact rod 603. The pressing block 604 drives the connected push sleeve 605 to move downward. At this time, the push sleeve 605 contacts and squeezes the contact rod 603 through the conical hole 606, so that the limit block 601 connected to the contact rod 603 is retracted, and then the combination plug 6 is taken out of the combination sleeve 7 by using the adjustment mechanism 4.

[0037] like Figure 5 As shown, a limiting annular groove 701 is provided on the inner wall of the combination sleeve 7 , and the inner wall of the limiting annular groove 701 is arranged in sliding contact with the outer end of the limiting block 601 .

[0038] Working principle: When multiple through silicon via adapter board bodies 1 need to be assembled and used, first pull the two protective covers 2, and then under the action of the spring 302, the positioning block 301 in the slider 3 can be inserted into the positioning hole 104 to limit and fix the slider 3, so that the two protective covers 2 remain in an open state, so that the through silicon via adapter board body 1 is exposed for use;

[0039] At the same time, when the protective cover 2 is opened, the triangular block 208 does not contact the through silicon via adapter board body 1, so that the mounting legs 205 rotate under their own weight and move out of the protective cover 2, which is convenient for installation and fixing;

[0040] Then, the extension distance of the combination plug 6 is adjusted as needed, and the worm 404 connected to the knob 405 is rotated, so that the worm 404 can drive the rotating shaft 402 connected to the worm wheel 403 to rotate, so that the rotating shaft 402 can drive the connected connecting rod group 401 to rotate, thereby driving the combination plug 6 on the adjustment plate 5 to move to a suitable position;

[0041] Then, the combination plug 6 is inserted into the combination sleeve 7 on another through silicon via adapter board body 1. At this time, under the action of the tension spring B602, the limit block 601 is inserted into the limit ring groove 701 in the combination sleeve 7 for combined installation;

[0042] Then, when it is necessary to connect electrical components with wires on the through-silicon via adapter board body 1, a screwdriver is inserted into the corresponding through-hole 101 to push out the silicone plug 102 in the through-hole 101, thereby installing it;

[0043] When one of the TSV adapter board bodies 1 needs to be repaired, the pressing block 604 on one side of the TSV adapter board body 1 and the upper TSV adapter board body 1 is pressed, so that the pressing block 604 drives the connected push sleeve 605 to move downward. At this time, the push sleeve 605 contacts and squeezes the contact rod 603 through the tapered hole 606, so that the limit block 601 connected to the contact rod 603 is retracted, and then the adjustment mechanism 4 is used to remove the combination plug 6 from the combination sleeve 7, and then the TSV adapter board body 1 is moved so that it can be rotated and moved out for maintenance.

[0044] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments.
