It should be understood that the terms used in this way can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances.

[0027] In order for those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0028] In the related art, in the reflow soldering process, the circuit board assembly needs to undergo high-temperature heating (usually 200-260°C) to melt the solder paste and complete the welding of components. Due to thermal expansion and warping deformation of the circuit board assembly at high temperature, if not effectively fixed and supported by the jig, it may lead to reduced welding quality, component displacement, and even damage to the circuit board assembly. Therefore, the soldering jig plays a key role in fixing the position of the circuit board assembly, suppressing thermal deformation, and ensuring the stability of the welding process during reflow soldering. However, the models and sizes of circuit board assemblies vary greatly (such as different sizes of mainboards, sub-boards, flexible boards, etc.), and traditional jigs need to be designed and manufactured separately for each model, resulting in frequent equipment replacement and low production efficiency.

[0029] To solve the above technical problems, the circuit board assembly soldering jig provided by the embodiments of the present application comprises a rack, a pre-fixing mechanism and a supporting mechanism. When the circuit board assembly needs to be fixed, first move the pre-fixing mechanism so that the size of the pre-fixing mechanism along the first direction matches the size of the circuit board assembly, and clamp the edge of the circuit board assembly to achieve the preliminary fixation of the circuit board assembly. The pre-fixing mechanism is configured to clamp the size along the height direction, which can be changed to match the size along the height direction of the circuit board assembly. The supporting mechanism is moved along the height direction to match the size of the circuit board assembly along the height direction. The supporting mechanism abuts against the internal area of the circuit board assembly to assist in fixing the circuit board assembly, so that the fixation of the circuit board assembly can be completed. In this way, the circuit board assembly soldering jig can be applied to different circuit board assemblies, and has good versatility.

[0030] Figure 1 A cross-sectional view of the circuit board assembly soldering jig provided by the present application. Figure 2 A side view of the circuit board assembly soldering jig provided by the present application.

[0031] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the circuit board assembly soldering jig provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown.

[0032] In some embodiments, the circuit board assembly soldering jig comprises a rack. The rack comprises a first rack 100.

[0033] Specifically, the first rack 100 comprises a fixed plate and at least two lifting rods 110. Exemplarily, the number of lifting rods 110 is two, and the two lifting rods 110 are arranged at intervals, and both of the two lifting rods 110 are connected with the fixed plate 120.

[0034] Figure 3 A top view of the second rack and the pre-fixing mechanism in the circuit board assembly soldering jig provided by the present application. Figure 4 A side cross-sectional view of the second rack and the pre-fixing mechanism in the circuit board assembly soldering jig provided by the present application.

[0035] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the rack includes a second rack 200. The second rack 200 is fixedly connected with the first rack 100.

[0036] Exemplarily, the second rack 200 can be a hollow frame structure, and the second rack 200 includes a top frame, a bottom frame, and four connecting wall plates located between the top frame and the bottom frame. The top frame includes four side columns connected in sequence. The bottom frame includes four side columns connected in sequence.

[0037] In some embodiments, the circuit board assembly welding jig includes a pre-fixing mechanism 300.

[0038] The pre-fixing mechanism 300 includes two clamping assemblies 310. The two clamping assemblies 310 are movably connected with the second rack 200, and the two clamping assemblies 310 are moved relative to each other along a first direction of the first rack 100 to match the size of the circuit board assembly 500 along the first direction. The clamping assembly 310 is used to clamp the edge of the circuit board assembly 500.

[0039] The clamping assembly 310 is configured to clamp the size in the height direction to match the size of the circuit board assembly 500 in the height direction. The clamping assembly 310 can be a spring locking assembly, or the clamping assembly 310 can be a clamping assembly with adjustable opening spacing in the height direction, so as to adapt to circuit board assemblies 500 of different height sizes. The height direction is the direction indicated by the Z axis.

[0040] The pre-fixing mechanism 300 includes two locking assemblies 320. The two locking assemblies 320 are arranged one by one corresponding to the two clamping assemblies 310. The locking assembly 320 is connected with the second rack 200 and the clamping assembly 310 respectively to fix the position of the clamping assembly 310 along the first direction, wherein the first direction is parallel to the horizontal plane. The first direction is the direction indicated by the X axis.

[0041] Specifically, one guide groove is arranged on each of the two connecting walls opposite to each other along a second direction. The guide groove extends along the first direction, and the clamping assembly 310 is slidably connected with the guide groove. The second direction is the direction indicated by the Y axis.

[0042] In some embodiments, the circuit board assembly welding jig comprises a support mechanism 400. Wherein the support mechanism 400 comprises a top support assembly 410 and a bottom support assembly 420. The top support assembly 410 and the bottom support assembly 420 are both movably connected with the first rack 100, the top support assembly 410 is located above the pre-fixing mechanism 300, and the bottom support assembly 420 is located at the bottom of the pre-fixing mechanism 300. The top support assembly 410 and the bottom support assembly 420 are used to abut the inner area of the circuit board assembly 500. It can be understood that the top support assembly 410 abuts the top of the circuit board assembly 500, and the bottom support assembly 420 abuts the top of the circuit board assembly 500. The inner area is the position of the circuit board assembly 500 excluding the edge when viewed from above.

[0043] The top support assembly 410 and the bottom support assembly 420 move along the height direction, and the distance between the top support assembly 410 and the bottom support assembly 420 is adjusted to match the size of the circuit board assembly 500 along the height direction.

[0044] In some embodiments, the circuit board assembly welding jig comprises a drive assembly 430. The top support assembly 410 and the bottom support assembly 420 are both movably connected with the first rack 100, the top support assembly 410 is located above the pre-fixing mechanism 300, and the bottom support assembly 420 is located at the bottom of the pre-fixing mechanism 300. The top support assembly 410 and the bottom support assembly 420 are used to abut the inner area of the circuit board assembly 500.

[0045] The drive assembly 430 drives the top support assembly 410 and the bottom support assembly 420 to move along the height direction, and adjusts the distance between the top support assembly 410 and the bottom support assembly 420 to match the size of the circuit board assembly 500 along the height direction.

[0046] When the circuit board assembly welding jig needs to fix the circuit board assembly 500, first, move the two clamping assemblies 310 so that the size of the two clamping assemblies 310 along the first direction matches the size of the circuit board assembly 500, lock the position of the clamping assembly 310 by using the locking assembly 320, clamp the edge of the circuit board assembly 500 by using the locking assembly 320 to achieve the preliminary fixation of the circuit board assembly 500, drive the top support assembly 410 and the bottom support assembly 420 to move along the height direction by using the driving assembly 430, adjust the distance between the top support assembly 410 and the bottom support assembly 420 to match the size of the circuit board assembly 500 along the height direction, and fix the circuit board assembly 500 by using the top support assembly 410 and the bottom support assembly 420 to abut against the internal area of the circuit board assembly 500, so that the fixation of the circuit board assembly 500 can be completed. In this way, the circuit board assembly welding jig can be suitable for different circuit board assemblies 500, and has good versatility. Moreover, the fixation of the circuit board assembly 500 is realized by cooperation of the top support assembly 410, the bottom support assembly 420 and the clamping assembly 310, and the fixation effect is good when the size of the circuit board assembly 500 is large.

[0047] Figure 5 For Figure 1 A local enlarged view of the middle A.

[0048] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, in some embodiments, the top support assembly 410 includes a first connecting plate 411. The first connecting plate 411 can be in the shape of a rectangular plate.

[0049] The first connecting plate 411 is connected with the driving assembly 430, and the horizontal projection of the clamping assembly 310 is located in the horizontal projection of the first connecting plate 411. In this way, the size of the first connecting plate 411 is large, and can better match the positioning requirements of circuit board assemblies 500 of different sizes.

[0050] The top support assembly 410 includes a plurality of first support pieces 412, which are arrayed at the bottom of the first connecting plate 411.

[0051] The top support assembly 410 includes at least one second support piece 413, the number of the second support pieces 413 is less than the number of the first support pieces 412, and the at least one second support piece 413 is selectively arranged at the bottom of different first support pieces 412, and the second support piece 413 is used for abutting against the circuit board assembly 500. That is, the number and installation position of the second support piece 413 can be selected according to requirements. One second support piece 413 is arranged on one first support piece 412. The second support piece 413 is detachably connected with the first support piece 412.

[0052] It should be noted that in a high temperature environment, the circuit board assembly 500 is prone to thermal expansion and warping. The traditional fixture rigidly fixes the entire periphery of the circuit board assembly 500, which can easily cause damage to both. In the circuit board assembly welding fixture provided in the embodiment, the top support assembly 410 includes a first connecting plate 411, a first support 412, and a second support 413. The second support 413 is selectively arranged at the bottom of different first supports 412, and the second support 413 is used to abut against the circuit board assembly 500. In this way, different positions of the circuit board assembly 500 can be abutted according to requirements, and the force applied to the circuit board assembly 500 by multi-position fixing is more dispersed, so as to avoid damage to the circuit board assembly 500 and the circuit board assembly welding fixture.

[0053] In some embodiments, the number of second supports 413 is at least two. In this way, multi-point support of the circuit board assembly 500 can be achieved, and the reliability of the fixation of the circuit board assembly 500 is improved. Moreover, multi-point distributed support is conducive to reducing the stress concentration of the circuit board assembly 500.

[0054] In some embodiments, the number of second supports 413 is at least two, and the outer wall size of the end of different second supports 413 away from the first support 412 is different.

[0055] Specifically, the second supports 413 of different sizes can be selected according to the size, thickness of the circuit board assembly 500, and the distribution of devices of the circuit board assembly 500, and installed on the first support 412 based on different positions to support the circuit board assembly 500. For example, when the space of the position to be supported is small, the second support 413 with a small outer wall size at the end away from the first support 412 can be selected.

[0056] In some embodiments, the number of second supports 413 is at least two, and the sizes of different second supports 413 in the height direction are different. In this way, the abutting force on the circuit board assembly 500 can be adjusted. For example, different lengths of the second supports 413 are used to abut against the circuit board assembly 500, and shorter second supports 413 are used at positions where the deformation of the circuit board assembly 500 is large, so as to reduce the abutting force on the circuit board assembly 500, and avoid damage to the circuit board assembly 500 and the circuit board assembly welding fixture. Or it can be used to match with different height planes on the circuit board assembly 500.

[0057] In some embodiments, the first support 412 is integrally arranged with the first connecting plate 411. In this way, only the second support 413 needs to be installed on the first support 412, and the installation efficiency is higher.

[0058] Referring to Figure 1 andFigure 5 As shown, in some other embodiments, the top support assembly 410 further comprises a plurality of first connecting structures 414, and the first support 412 is detachably connected with the first connecting plate 411 through the first connecting structures 414. In this way, the second support 413 can be fixed on the first support 412 first, and then the first support 412 and the second support 413 are integrally installed on the first connecting plate 411. The first support 412 and the second support 413 have a large overall size, which is convenient for operation.

[0059] In some embodiments, one first support 412 can be connected with the first connecting plate 411 through two first connecting structures 414. In this way, the reliability of the connection can be improved.

[0060] In some embodiments, the first connecting structure 414 comprises a first elastic member 4141. The bottom of the first connecting plate 411 is provided with a plurality of first connecting grooves 4111 arranged in an array, and the first elastic member 4141 is located in the first connecting groove 4111 and connected with the side wall of the first connecting groove 4111.

[0061] Exemplarily, the first connecting grooves 4111 can be arranged in an array along the first direction and the second direction.

[0062] In some embodiments, the first connecting structure 414 comprises a first locking ball 4142. The first locking ball 4142 is located in the first connecting groove 4111 and connected with the first elastic member 4141. The side wall of the first support 412 is provided with a first recess 4121 matched with the first locking ball 4142. The first support 412 is inserted into the first connecting groove 4111, and the first locking ball 4142 is clamped with the first recess 4121.

[0063] Specifically, the first connecting groove 4111 comprises a first main groove and two first auxiliary grooves located on the opposite sides of the first main groove, and the two first auxiliary grooves are respectively communicated with the first main groove. In the height direction, the two first auxiliary grooves are located at the upper part of the first main groove, and the size of the first auxiliary groove is smaller than that of the first main groove. The two first elastic members 4141 are respectively installed in the two first auxiliary grooves. The inner wall size of the first auxiliary groove is matched with the outer wall size of the first support 412.

[0064] In some embodiments, the inner wall size of the first main groove can be greater than the outer wall size of the first elastic member 4141, and the inner wall size of the first main groove can be smaller than the diameter of the first locking ball 4142.

[0065] When the first support 412 is installed, the first support 412 is inserted into the first main groove, the first support 412 is pushed upward, the first support 412 pushes the first locking balls 4142 on both sides away from each other, until the first locking balls 4142 are clamped in the first recess 4121, thereby completing the connection of the first support 412. When the first support 412 is disassembled, the first support 412 is pulled downward, the first recess 4121 of the first support 412 is disengaged from the first locking ball 4142, thereby completing the disassembly of the first support 412. It can be understood that the first elastic member 4141 and the first locking ball 4142 realize the detachable connection of the first support 412 and the first connecting plate 411, and the connection reliability is high and the operation convenience is high.

[0066] Specifically, the first elastic member 4141 can be a spring or elastic rubber. The first locking ball 4142 can be a steel ball.

[0067] In some embodiments, the top support assembly 410 further comprises a first pressure sensor 415 located between the first locking ball 4142 and the first recess 4121, and the first pressure sensor 415 is configured to detect the pressure on the first locking ball 4142. It can be understood that by setting the first pressure sensor 415, it can be more intuitive to know whether the first support 412 is installed in place. For example, when the pressure sensor detection value is within the preset pressure interval, it means that the first support 412 is installed in place. Specifically, the first pressure sensor 415 can be embedded on the first locking ball 4142, or the first pressure sensor 415 can be pasted on the first locking ball 4142.

[0068] In some embodiments, the first pressure sensor 415 is arranged one-to-one with the first locking ball 4142. In this way, when one first support 412 is connected to the first connecting plate 411 through two first connecting structures 414, the detection values of the two first pressure sensors located in the same first connecting groove 4111 are within the preset pressure interval, indicating that the first support 412 is installed in place. If none of them is within the preset pressure interval, it means that the first support 412 is not installed in place. If one of them is not within the preset pressure interval and the other is within the preset pressure interval, it means that the first pressure sensor 415 fails.

[0069] In other embodiments, the first support 412 is detachably connected to the first connecting plate 411. The second support 413 is integrally arranged with the first support 412. In this way, only the first support 412 and the second support 413 are installed on the first connecting plate 411 as a whole, and the installation efficiency is high.

[0070] In some embodiments, the first support 412 and the second support 413 are made of different materials, and the second support 413 has a smaller hardness than the first support 412. In this way, the damage to the circuit board assembly 500 can be reduced, and the first support 412 is not easily damaged during plugging. The first support 412 and the second support 413 can be detachably connected, and the processing difficulty of both is relatively small. For example, the material of the second support 413 can be rubber or silicone, and the material of the first support 412 can be metal or plastic.

[0071] Figure 6 For Figure 1 a local enlarged view of B in the middle.

[0072] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, the bottom support assembly 420 includes a second connecting plate 421, the second connecting plate 421 is connected with the driving assembly 430, and the orthographic projection of the clamping assembly 310 towards the horizontal plane is located within the orthographic projection of the second connecting plate 421 towards the horizontal plane. In this way, the second connecting plate 421 has a larger size, which can better match the positioning needs of circuit board assemblies 500 of different sizes.

[0073] In some embodiments, the bottom support assembly 420 includes a plurality of third supports 422, and the plurality of third supports 422 are arrayed on the top of the second connecting plate 421.

[0074] In some embodiments, the bottom support assembly 420 includes at least one fourth support 423, the number of the fourth support 423 is less than the number of the third support 422, and the at least one fourth support 423 is selectively arranged on the top of different third supports 422, and the fourth support 423 is used to abut against the circuit board assembly 500. That is, the number and installation position of the fourth support 423 can be selected according to needs. One fourth support 423 is arranged on one third support 422. The third support 422 and the fourth support 423 are detachably connected, for example, the third support 422 and the fourth support 423 can be inserted.

[0075] It should be noted that in a high temperature environment, the circuit board assembly 500 is prone to thermal expansion and warping. The traditional fixture rigidly fixes the entire circuit board assembly 500, which can easily cause damage to both. In the circuit board assembly welding fixture provided in the embodiment, the top support assembly 410 includes a second connecting plate 421, a third support 422, and a fourth support 423. The fourth support 423 is selectively arranged on the top of different third supports 422, and the fourth support 423 is used to abut against the circuit board assembly 500. In this way, the different positions of the circuit board assembly 500 can be abutted according to the needs, and the positions with a larger deformation amount during the welding of the circuit board assembly 500 can be supported, thereby reducing the deformation amount. Moreover, using multiple positions to support can exert a more dispersed force on the circuit board assembly 500, which is less likely to cause damage to the circuit board assembly 500 and the circuit board assembly welding fixture.

[0076] In some embodiments, the number of fourth supports 423 is at least two. In this way, multi-point support of the circuit board assembly 500 can be achieved, and the reliability of the fixation of the circuit board assembly 500 can be improved. A more dispersed force is exerted on the circuit board assembly 500, which is less likely to cause damage to the circuit board assembly 500 and the circuit board assembly welding fixture.

[0077] In some embodiments, the number of fourth supports 423 is at least two, and the outer wall size of the end of each fourth support 423 away from the third support 422 is different.

[0078] Specifically, the fourth supports 423 of different sizes can be selected according to the size, thickness of the circuit board assembly 500, and the distribution of devices of the circuit board assembly 500, and installed on the third support 422 based on different positions to support the circuit board assembly 500. The outer wall size refers to the diameter size.

[0079] In some embodiments, the number of fourth supports 423 is at least two, and the sizes of the fourth supports 423 in the height direction are different.

[0080] In this way, the abutting force on the circuit board assembly 500 can be adjusted. The fourth supports 423 of different lengths are used to abut against the circuit board assembly 500, and shorter fourth supports 423 are used near the positions with a larger deformation amount of the circuit board assembly 500, thereby reducing the abutting force on the circuit board assembly 500, which is less likely to cause damage to the circuit board assembly 500 and the circuit board assembly welding fixture. Alternatively, the fourth supports 423 can abut against the surfaces with different heights of the circuit board assembly 500.

[0081] In some embodiments, the third support 422 is integrally connected with the second connecting plate 421. In this way, only the fourth supports 423 need to be installed on the third support 422, and the installation efficiency is higher.

[0082] In some embodiments, the bottom support assembly 420 further comprises a plurality of second connecting structures 424, the third support 422 is detachably connected with the first connecting plate 411 through the second connecting structures 424. In this way, the fourth support 423 can be fixed on the third support 422 first, and then the fourth support 423 and the third support 422 are integrally installed on the first connecting plate 411. The overall size of the fourth support 423 and the third support 422 is larger, which is convenient for installation.

[0083] In some embodiments, one third support 422 can be connected with the first connecting plate 411 through two second connecting structures 424. In this way, the reliability of the connection can be improved.

[0084] In some embodiments, the second connecting structure 424 comprises a second elastic member 4241. The top of the second connecting plate 421 is provided with a plurality of arrayed second connecting grooves 4211, the second elastic member 4241 is located in the second connecting groove 4211, and the second elastic member 4241 is connected with the side wall of the second connecting groove 4211.

[0085] Exemplarily, the second connecting grooves 4211 can be arrayed along the first direction and the second direction. Exemplarily, the second connecting grooves 4211 and the first connecting grooves 4111 can be arranged one by one, that is, the arrangement modes of the second connecting grooves 4211 and the first connecting grooves 4111 are the same.

[0086] In some embodiments, the second connecting structure 424 comprises a second locking ball 4242, the second locking ball 4242 is located in the second connecting groove 4211, the second locking ball 4242 is connected with the second elastic member 4241, the side wall of the third support 422 is provided with a second recess 4221 matched with the second locking ball 4242, the third support 422 is inserted in the second connecting groove 4211, and the second locking ball 4242 is clamped with the second recess 4221.

[0087] Specifically, the second connecting groove 4211 comprises a second main groove and two first auxiliary grooves located on the opposite sides of the second main groove, and two second auxiliary grooves respectively communicated with the second main groove. In the height direction, the two second auxiliary grooves are located at the upper part of the second main groove, and the size of the second auxiliary groove is smaller than that of the second main groove. The two second elastic members 4241 are respectively installed in the two second auxiliary grooves. The inner wall size of the second auxiliary groove matches the outer wall size of the third support 422.

[0088] When the third support 422 is installed, the third support 422 is inserted into the second main groove, the third support 422 is pushed downward, the two second locking balls 4242 on the two sides are pushed away from each other, until the second locking balls 4242 are clamped in the second recess 4221, so that the connection of the third support 422 is completed. When the third support 422 is disassembled, the third support 422 is pulled upward, the second recess 4221 of the third support 422 is separated from the second locking ball 4242, so that the disassembly of the third support 422 is completed. It can be understood that the second elastic member 4241 and the second locking ball 4242 realize the detachable connection of the third support 422 and the second connecting plate 421, the connection reliability is higher, and the operation convenience is higher.

[0089] Specifically, the second elastic member 4241 can be a spring or elastic rubber. The second locking ball 4242 can be a steel ball.

[0090] In some embodiments, the bottom support assembly 420 further comprises a second pressure sensor 425, the second pressure sensor 425 is located between the second locking ball 4242 and the second recess 4221, and the second pressure sensor 425 is configured to detect the pressure borne by the second locking ball 4242. It can be understood that by setting the second pressure sensor 425, it can be more intuitive to know whether the third support 422 is installed in place. For example, when the pressure sensor detection value is in the preset pressure interval, it means that the third support 422 is installed in place. Specifically, the second pressure sensor 425 can be embedded on the second locking ball 4242, or the second pressure sensor 425 can be pasted on the second locking ball 4242.

[0091] In some embodiments, the second pressure sensor 425 is arranged one by one with the second locking ball 4242. In this way, when one third support 422 is connected to the second connecting plate 421 through two second connecting structures 424, the detection values of the two second pressure sensors located in the same second connecting groove 4211 are in the preset pressure interval, which means that the third support 422 is installed in place. If none of them is in the preset pressure interval, it means that the third support 422 is not installed in place. If one of them is not in the preset pressure interval and the other is in the preset pressure interval, it means that the second pressure sensor 425 fails.

[0092] In some embodiments, the third support 422 and the fourth support 423 are made of different materials, and the hardness of the fourth support 423 is less than that of the third support 422. In this way, it is beneficial to reduce the damage to the circuit board assembly 500. Moreover, the fourth support 423 is not easy to be damaged during installation and disassembly, and the third support 422 and the fourth support 423 are detachably connected, which is convenient for processing of the two.

[0093] Exemplarily, the fourth support 423 can be made of rubber or silicone, and the third support 422 can be made of metal or plastic.

[0094] In some other embodiments, the third support 422 is detachably connected with the second connecting plate 421. The third support 422 is integrally arranged with the fourth support 423. In this way, the third support 422 and the fourth support 423 are integrally installed on the second connecting plate 421, and the installation efficiency is relatively high.

[0111] It can be understood that by setting the positioning member 311, the adjusting structure 312 and the fixing member 313, the spacing between the positioning member 311 and the fixing member 313 can be adjusted, so as to be applicable to circuit board assemblies 500 of different sizes in the height direction.
