[0002] Desoldering is a common operation in electronic production, usually used for purposes such as rework and gold removal. Common desoldering methods include using equipment such as desoldering guns, soldering irons, and hot air guns in combination with desoldering tapes. A desoldering gun uses negative pressure to desolder, so the equipment is heavy and has limitations in use on large areas and uneven positions. Soldering irons are similar to hot air guns and both need to be used in combination with desoldering tapes. The biggest drawback of this method is the complex operation. The operator needs to operate the desoldering tape and the soldering iron with both hands respectively and constantly switch to other tools such as tweezers and solder wire, which has a certain impact on production efficiency.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a technical solution to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

Specific Embodiments

[0033] The exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein.

[0034] Figure 1 shows a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a soldering iron with both soldering and desoldering functions provided by the present invention. As Figure 1 shown, a soldering iron with both soldering and desoldering functions includes: a soldering iron tip 1, a handle 2, a desoldering tape 3, a desoldering rod telescopic switch 4, and a desoldering rod 5;

[0035] The soldering iron tip 1 is connected to the handle 2, the desoldering rod telescopic switch 4 is connected to the desoldering tape 3 through the desoldering rod 5, the desoldering rod telescopic switch 4 is slidably connected to the handle 2, and the desoldering rod telescopic switch 4 drives the desoldering tape 3 to approach or move away from the soldering iron tip 1 during the sliding process.

[0036] Among them, the soldering iron tip 1 is used to provide soldering heat. In this embodiment, soldering iron tips with different shapes and sizes can be replaced for soldering different parts.

[0037] Among them, the telescopic switch 4 of the solder sucker rod can trigger two modes, namely: welding mode and solder sucking mode. Figure 1 Corresponding to the welding mode, in the welding mode, the telescopic switch 4 of the solder sucker rod is pulled backward (in the direction away from the soldering iron tip 1). Figure 2 Corresponding to the solder sucking mode, in the solder sucking mode, the telescopic switch 4 of the solder sucker rod is pushed forward (in the direction close to the soldering iron tip 1).

[0038] In an optional manner, it further includes: a solder sucking belt buckle 10;

[0039] The solder sucking belt 3 is wound around the front end of the solder sucker rod 5 and fixed on the solder sucker rod 5 through the solder sucking belt buckle 10.

[0040] In an optional manner, it further includes: a heat insulation cover 6;

[0041] The heat insulation cover 6 is sleeved on the solder sucker rod 5.

[0042] Among them, the heat insulation cover 6 can prevent the operator from being scalded during operation, and at the same time prevent the solder beads on the recycled solder sucking belt 3 from splashing.

[0043] In an optional manner, it further includes: a digital display controller 7;

[0044] The digital display controller 7 is connected to the solder sucking belt 3 and is used to control the conveying speed and direction of the solder sucking belt 3 wound around the solder sucker rod 5.

[0045] Among them, the conveying direction includes: clockwise rotation or counterclockwise rotation. The conveying speed can be adjusted according to actual needs and is not limited here. The digital display controller 7 can specifically determine the conveying speed and direction to be adjusted through the PID control algorithm, combined with the current conveying speed and the target conveying speed, and the current conveying direction and the target conveying direction.

[0046] In an optional manner, the digital display controller 7 is also connected to the soldering iron tip 1 and is used to control the welding temperature of the soldering iron tip 1 and output and display the welding temperature.

[0047] Among them, the connection between the digital display controller 7 and the soldering iron tip 1 can be a wired connection (connecting the soldering iron tip 1 and the digital display controller 7 through a cable to achieve the transmission of electrical signals and power), or a wireless connection (such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, etc. to achieve the connection and control between the soldering iron tip 1 and the digital display controller 7), and is not limited here.

[0048] Specifically: ① A temperature sensor, such as a thermocouple or a thermistor, is built into the soldering iron tip 1. These sensors can sense the temperature change of the soldering iron tip 1 in real time, convert it into an electrical signal, and send it to the digital control display 7. ② The digital display controller 7 converts the analog signal (electrical signal) into a digital signal through an internal analog-to-digital converter (ADC). ③ A dedicated control algorithm (such as a PID control algorithm) runs inside the digital display controller 7, which is used to calculate the required power adjustment amount according to the set target temperature and the actually measured temperature value. ④ According to the calculation result of the PID control algorithm, the digital display controller 7 adjusts the power output to the soldering iron tip 1, which can be specifically achieved by controlling the current or voltage of the heating element (such as a resistance wire or a PTC element) of the soldering iron tip 1. When the temperature is lower than the set value, the digital display controller 7 increases the power output to heat up the soldering iron tip 1; when the temperature is higher than the set value, the digital display controller 7 reduces the power output to cool down the soldering iron tip 1. ⑤ The digital display controller 7 has a digital display function, which can display the current temperature and the target temperature of the soldering iron tip 1 in real time, enabling the user to intuitively understand the working state of the soldering iron tip 1 and make adjustments as needed.

[0049] In an alternative embodiment, it further includes: a solder wick storage box 8;

[0050] The solder wick storage box 8 is used to store the unused solder wick 3 and recycle the used solder wick 3.

[0051] In an alternative embodiment, it further includes: a solder wick conveying switch 9; the solder wick conveying switch 9 is arranged on the handle 2, and the solder wick conveying switch 9 is used to turn on or off the rotation of the solder wick 3.

[0052] In an alternative embodiment, the digital display controller 7 is further connected to the solder wick telescopic switch 4 and the solder wick storage box 8 respectively;

[0053] When the solder wick telescopic switch 4 drives the solder wick 3 to approach the soldering iron tip 1 during sliding and the solder wick conveying switch 9 is turned on, the digital display controller 7 controls the solder wick storage box 8 to release the solder wick 3; when the solder wick telescopic switch 4 drives the solder wick 3 to move away from the soldering iron tip 1 during sliding, the digital display controller 7 controls the solder wick storage box 8 to recycle the solder wick 3 and controls the solder wick conveying switch 9 to turn off.

[0054] Among them, the digital display controller 7 is electrically connected to the solder wick telescopic switch 4. When the solder wick telescopic switch 4 is pushed forward or pulled backward, the digital display controller 7 adjusts to release or tighten a section of the solder wick 3 respectively to ensure the self-tightening of the solder wick 3. For example Figure 3As shown, the solder sucker rod conveying switch 9 is located on the other side of the handle 2 (opposite to the solder sucker rod telescopic switch 4). Pressing the switch can control the rotation of the solder sucker tape 3, and the rotation direction of the solder sucker tape after pressing the switch can be set by the digital display controller 7. When the solder sucker rod telescopic switch 4 is in the rearward pull state, the digital display controller 7 locks the solder sucker rod conveying switch 9 to prevent accidental touch by personnel.

[0055] In an optional manner, when the solder sucker rod telescopic switch 4 drives the solder sucker rod 4 to approach the soldering iron head 1 during the sliding process, the solder sucker tape 3 is in contact connection with the soldering iron head 1.

[0056] In an optional manner, it further includes: an external power supply 11; the external power supply 11 is used to supply power to the soldering iron with both soldering and solder sucking functions.

[0057] As Figure 4 shown, there are two sections of connection between the solder sucker rod telescopic switch 4 and the solder sucker rod 5: one is a rigid connection with a rotating shaft 41, and the other is a flexible connection with a spring 42. The rigid connection is used to enable the solder sucker rod 5 to displace with the forward push and rearward pull of the solder sucker rod telescopic switch 4 relative to the handle 2. The flexible connection is used for the contact between the soldering iron head 1 and the solder sucker rod head 51 during operation. As Figure 5 shown, the solder sucker rod head 51 extends to contact the soldering iron head in the solder sucking mode and retracts into the solder sucker rod 5 in the soldering mode. The solder sucker rod head 51 is a thin metal sheet, which has the characteristics of high strength and fast heat conduction. When the soldering iron head 1 contacts the solder sucker rod head 51, heat can be quickly conducted to the solder sucker rod head 51. The shape of the solder sucker rod head 51 is similar to the projection shape of the soldering iron head 1 to ensure tight fit when the soldering iron head 1 contacts the solder sucker rod head 51 and to ensure the heat transfer efficiency. The solder sucker rod lock 10 can be detached from the solder sucker rod 5, and there are channels in the up and down directions of the solder sucker rod 5. The solder sucker tape 3 can pass through the channels to ensure that the solder sucker tape 3 will not fall off the solder sucker rod 5 during operation.

[0058] It should be noted that the working principle and implementation method of a soldering iron with both soldering and solder sucking functions using this embodiment include:

[0059] ① Install a soldering iron head 1 with a suitable shape, turn on the external power supply 11 and the digital display controller 7, set the working temperature of the soldering iron head 1 and the conveying speed of the solder sucker tape 3, and turn on the heating.

[0060] ② Pull the solder sucker rod telescopic switch 4 rearward to retract the solder sucker rod 5 into the handle 2. At this time, it is in the soldering mode, and soldering operations can be performed according to a conventional soldering iron.

[0061] ③Push the telescopic switch 4 of the solder suction rod forward to push the solder suction rod 5 out of the handle 2. At this time, it is in the solder suction mode, and there is a certain distance between the soldering iron tip 1 and the solder suction rod tip 51. After the solder suction tape 3 is self-tightened by the device, use the solder suction rod tip 51 to press against the solder joint, and then gently press the device downward. Since the solder suction rod 5 has a spring structure, the soldering iron tip 1 can displace relative to the solder suction rod tip 51 under pressure to achieve their contact. Since the solder suction rod tip 51 is made of a high thermal conductivity material, it can heat up rapidly. At this time, the soldering iron tip 1, the solder suction tape 3, the solder suction rod tip 51, and the solder joint are in contact with each other, and heat is conducted backward sequentially from the soldering iron tip 1.

[0062] ④Wait for a few seconds until the solder suction rod 5 has heated up and the solder joint has melted. At this time, while the operator continues to firmly press against the solder joint, turn on the solder suction rod conveyor switch 9 to rotate the solder suction tape 3 forward. At this time, the solder suction tape 3 passes through the heated solder suction rod 5, and the solder on the solder joint can be sucked away. During this process, a new solder suction tape 3 is sent out from the solder suction tape storage box 8, and at the same time, the used solder suction tape 3 is recycled to the solder suction tape storage box 8.

[0063] ⑤After all the solder at the solder joint has been sucked away, turn off the solder suction rod conveyor switch 9, and the solder suction tape 3 stops rotating, completing the solder suction work at this position.

[0064] ⑥Continue to repeat the above operations to perform solder suction on other positions. After the solder suction tape 3 is used up, the solder suction tape 3 can be replaced in the solder suction tape storage box 8.

[0065] The technical solution of this embodiment has the following technical effects:

[0066] ①Retain the properties of a conventional soldering iron, and the soldering iron tip can be freely replaced for welding, solder suction, or gold removal at various positions. It is flexible and widely applicable.

[0067] ②It can semi-automatically convey the solder suction tape and can be operated with one hand, allowing the operator to use more other tools simultaneously, improving efficiency.

[0068] ③It can flexibly switch between the welding mode and the solder suction mode, with flexible operation, saving the time for the operator to switch tools.

[0069] ④It can more precisely control the conveying speed of the solder suction tape, thereby controlling the solder suction time and avoiding thermal stress damage to the solder joint caused by too long solder suction time.

[0070] ⑤The solder suction rod lock can prevent the lateral slip of the solder suction tape. It is better controlled than the traditional method.

[0071] ⑥The solder suction tape can be used continuously, increasing the utilization rate and saving costs.

[0072] ⑦The device integrates most of the control components, the solder suction tape storage box and other peripherals, reducing the weight of the handle and being suitable for large-scale operations.

[0073] ⑧ The design of the heat shield can prevent scalding and avoid the splashing of solder balls during the recycling of the solder sucking tape.

[0074] The technical solution of this embodiment can quickly switch modes for solder sucking operations during the soldering process. The user can operate the soldering iron of this embodiment with one hand, reducing the time for switching tools and greatly improving production efficiency. In addition, during the operation, the user can effectively control the time of the solder sucking process by controlling the conveyance of the solder sucking tape, thereby reducing the occurrence of thermal stress damage, and there is no need for manual holding of the solder sucking tape, avoiding the risk of scalding.
