Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of circuit board patch processing and relates to an external clamping fixture for circuit board patches. Background Art

[0002] Surface mount processing of circuit boards refers to installing surface mount components without pins or short leads on the surface of the circuit board, and connecting and assembling the components to the circuit board by welding. For ultra-thin circuit boards, such as ultra-thin PCB boards, when the circuit boards are welded during the patch process, the ultra-thin circuit boards are very likely to be partially warped and deformed under the influence of high temperature, thus causing the circuit boards to be scrapped. In particular, the existing circuit board patch processing positioning fixtures usually clamp and fix the upper and lower surfaces of the circuit board by an upper fixture and a lower fixture, and the fixed space between the upper fixture and the lower fixture is relatively closed, which makes it more difficult for the heat generated during the circuit board patch welding process to dissipate, further causing the problem of thermal deformation of the circuit board.

[0003] Therefore, in order to solve the technical problem that the existing circuit board patch processing fixing fixture is difficult to quickly dissipate the heat of the circuit board, causing the circuit board to easily curl and deform, the utility model discloses an external clamping fixture for circuit board patches.

[0007] The circuit board is placed in the positioning groove at the top of the lower fixture, and the positioning of the circuit board is achieved by matching the positioning groove with the contour of the circuit board. At the same time, the patch position and non-patch position at the bottom of the circuit board are supported and reinforced by the lower boss inside the positioning groove. Then the upper fixture is snap-fitted and installed on the top of the lower fixture, and the upper boss at the bottom of the upper fixture presses the non-patch area at the top of the circuit board downward, thereby achieving the fixation of the circuit board between the upper fixture and the lower fixture, effectively avoiding the movement of the circuit board during the subsequent patch operation. At the same time, a patch opening is provided on the patch area of ​​the upper fixture corresponding to the circuit board to reserve sufficient patch operation space, and the patch device can perform patch operation on the circuit board through the patch opening. At the same time, the upper boss in contact with the top of the circuit board and the lower boss in contact with the bottom of the circuit board can conduct the heat generated by the circuit board during the patch process to the external environment, and the upper fixture and the lower fixture clamp the circuit board, thereby effectively avoiding the circuit board from curling and deforming due to the influence of temperature.

[0008] In order to better realize the utility model, further, an upper mounting opening is provided at the bottom of the upper fixture corresponding to the non-patch area of ​​the circuit board, and an upper boss is installed in the upper mounting opening.

[0014] In order to better realize the utility model, further, an upper magnetic attraction portion is provided at the edge of the upper fixture, and a lower magnetic attraction portion that magnetically attracts the upper magnetic attraction portion is provided at the edge of the lower fixture.

[0029] Embodiment 1:

[0030] An external clamping fixture for a circuit board patch according to this embodiment, such as Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, it includes an upper jig 1 and a lower jig 2 that can be interlocked, the upper jig 1 is provided with a patch opening 3 corresponding to the patch area of ​​the circuit board, and the bottom of the upper jig 1 is provided with an upper boss 4 corresponding to the non-patch area of ​​the circuit board; the top of the lower jig 2 is provided with a positioning groove 5 corresponding to the contour of the circuit board, and the interior of the positioning groove 5 is provided with a lower boss 6 corresponding to the patch position and non-patch position of the circuit board.

[0031] After the upper fixture 1 and the lower fixture 2 are buckled and installed, an inner cavity for clamping and fixing the circuit board is formed between the upper fixture 1 and the lower fixture 2, which prevents the circuit board from moving during the subsequent patch process, thereby ensuring the patch accuracy of the circuit board. The steps for clamping and fixing the circuit board by the upper fixture 1 and the lower fixture 2 are as follows:

[0032] Step 1: Place the circuit board inside the positioning groove 5 at the top of the lower fixture 2. At this time, the outline of the circuit board matches the sidewall outline of the positioning groove 5, thereby realizing the positioning of the circuit board in the lower fixture 2. At the same time, the top of the lower boss 6 protruding upward inside the positioning groove 5 contacts the patch area and non-patch area at the bottom of the circuit board to achieve support and reinforcement of the circuit board. The top of the lower boss 6 protruding upward is higher than the bottom surface of the positioning groove 5, thereby reserving sufficient heat dissipation space at the bottom of the circuit board;

[0033] Step 2, snap-fit ​​the upper jig 1 onto the top of the lower jig 2, so that the upper boss 4 at the bottom of the upper jig 1 presses the non-patch area on the top of the circuit board downward to further fix the circuit board; at this time, the patch opening 3 on the upper jig 1 corresponds to the patch area of ​​the circuit board;

[0034] Step 3, the patch device performs patch operation on the circuit board through the patch opening 3. During the patch operation, the heat generated by the circuit board is conducted to the external environment through the upper boss 4 and the lower boss 6, thereby preventing the circuit board from curling due to excessive temperature.

[0035] Embodiment 2:

[0036] An external clamping fixture for circuit board patch is improved on the basis of embodiment 1, such as Figure 2 As shown, an upper mounting opening 100 is provided at the bottom of the upper fixture 1 corresponding to the non-patch area of ​​the circuit board, and an upper boss 4 is installed in the upper mounting opening 100 .

[0037] The upper mounting opening 100 is a stepped opening, and the upper boss 4 is provided with a stepped boss corresponding to the upper mounting opening 100, so that the upper boss 4 can be detachably positioned and installed inside the upper mounting opening 100. One end of the upper boss 4 extends toward the lower fixture 2 and contacts the non-patch area at the top of the circuit board, and the top of the circuit board is pressed and positioned by the upper boss 4. At the same time, the heat generated during the patch process of the circuit board is conducted to the external environment by the upper boss 4, so as to avoid deformation of the circuit board caused by excessive local temperature of the circuit board.

[0038] Furthermore, the upper boss 4 is made of heat-conducting material, and at least one upper air vent 101 is correspondingly provided on the upper fixture 1 and the upper boss 4. The upper air vent 101 facilitates the circulation of air from the external environment and air inside the fixture, and can dissipate heat on the circuit board to the external environment more quickly.

[0046] The lower mounting opening 200 is a stepped opening, and the lower boss 6 is provided with a stepped boss corresponding to the lower mounting opening 200, so as to realize the detachable positioning installation of the lower boss 6 inside the lower mounting opening 200. One end of the lower boss 6 extends toward the upper fixture 1 and contacts with the non-patch area and the patch area at the bottom of the circuit board, and the bottom of the circuit board is supported and positioned by the lower boss 6. At the same time, the heat generated during the patch process of the circuit board is conducted to the external environment by the lower boss 6, so as to avoid deformation of the circuit board caused by excessive local temperature of the circuit board.

[0047] Furthermore, the lower boss 6 is made of heat-conducting material, and at least one lower vent 201 is correspondingly provided on the lower fixture 2 and the lower boss 6.

[0051] Furthermore, an upper magnetic attraction portion 001 is provided at the edge of the upper jig 1, and a lower magnetic attraction portion 002 that is magnetically attracted to the upper magnetic attraction portion 001 is provided at the edge of the lower jig 2.
