Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of silver immersion processing of circuit boards, in particular to a silver immersion surface treatment device. Background Art

[0002] The silver immersion treatment on the surface of a circuit board is a common electroplating process, which is used to deposit a layer of silver on the surface of the circuit board to improve its electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. In the chemical reduction method, the circuit board is immersed in a chemical solution containing silver ions, and through a chemical reaction, the silver ions are reduced into a solid silver layer to ensure that a uniform, dense and well-adhered silver layer is obtained on the circuit board.

[0003] The existing silver immersion treatment equipment usually only has a holding frame for holding circuit boards. After the silver immersion treatment of the previous batch of circuit boards is completed, the holding frame needs to be taken out of the silver immersion tank, the circuit boards with good silver immersion are unloaded, and then the next batch of circuit boards are loaded into the holding frame. Subsequently, the holding frame and the circuit boards are placed back into the silver immersion tank again. This results in a long intermittent time for the silver immersion treatment of two batches, making it difficult to ensure the continuity of processing and greatly reducing the silver immersion treatment efficiency. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an efficient silver immersion surface treatment device, which effectively solves the problems raised in the above background art.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions.

Below the suspension, a mounting plate is installed through a first driving mechanism provided on its lower surface. The first driving mechanism is used to drive the mounting plate to move left and right. Along the left-right translation direction, on both sides of the lower surface of the mounting plate, second driving mechanisms are respectively provided. Below the second driving mechanisms on both sides, holding frames are respectively provided. The second driving mechanisms are used to drive the holding frames on the same side to move up and down. The four sides and the bottom of the holding frame are respectively evenly distributed with through holes that penetrate inside and outside.

[0007] Thus, by setting two holding frames and the positions of the two holding frames can be switched back and forth. While one holding frame is placed in the silver immersion tank for silver immersion, the other holding frame is located outside the silver immersion tank, which is convenient for loading and unloading. The switching operation of the two holding frames is realized, greatly reducing the intermittent time for the silver immersion treatment of two batches of circuit boards and improving the silver immersion treatment efficiency of the circuit boards. Along the left-right translation direction, the workstations for loading and unloading are located on both outer sides of the silver immersion tank. Each holding frame is vertically suspended below the mounting plate through a second driving mechanism, with a large operating space, which is convenient for loading and unloading, and the workstation switching speed is fast and efficient.

The rotating threaded rod can drive the nut seat to move left and right in the guide groove, thereby driving the mounting plate to move left and right, providing a stable drive for the position switching of the two containing frames.

[0010] Furthermore, the second driving mechanism includes a fixing seat, a hydraulic cylinder and a connecting arm, the hydraulic cylinder is vertically fixed to the lower surface of the mounting plate through the fixing seat, the connecting arm is fixedly connected to the end of the telescopic rod of the hydraulic cylinder, and the containing frame is correspondingly fixed to the connecting arm.

[0011] The hydraulic cylinder extends and, under the connection of the connecting arm, can drive the containing frame to move downward into the silver sinking pool, facilitating the silver sinking process. The hydraulic cylinder retracts and can drive the containing frame upward and out of the silver sinking pool. In conjunction with the first driving mechanism, the containing frame can be moved to one side of the silver sinking pool, facilitating loading and unloading, and providing a stable drive for the lifting of the containing frame.

[0012] Furthermore, the connecting arm has an inverted U-shaped structural layout, the top of the connecting arm is fixed to the end of the telescopic rod of the hydraulic cylinder, and the bottom ends on both sides of the connecting arm are respectively fixed to the two sides of the top of the containing frame.

[0013] The connecting arm has an inverted U-shaped structure, which is symmetrical with the connection point of the containing frame, thus ensuring the stability of the containing frame. In addition, the connecting arm is arched above the containing frame to make room for easy placement of circuit boards.

[0014] Furthermore, the two sides of the silver sinking pool are respectively provided with collection tanks with openings facing upwards, and the two collection tanks are provided with reflux channels communicating with the interior of the silver sinking pool on the sides close to the silver sinking pool.

[0015] When the containing frame is removed from the silver sinking pool and moved to one side of the silver sinking pool, the solution leaked through the leak hole can fall into the collection tank to achieve the collection effect, and the solution collected in the collection tank can be returned to the silver sinking pool through the reflux channel to achieve solution recovery and avoid waste caused by solution exposure.

[0016] Furthermore, guide rods are fixedly installed on both sides of the guide seat on the lower surface of the suspension through brackets, and sliding blocks are slidably sleeved on the two guide rods, and the lower ends of the sliding blocks are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate.

[0017] Through the sliding fit between the sliding block and the guide rod, a limiting and guiding effect is provided for the mounting plate, which not only ensures that the sliding adjustment of the mounting plate is smooth and stable enough, but also provides stable support for the mounting plate, ensuring the overall firmness of the mounting plate and the structure below it.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , a silver immersion surface treatment device provided by the present invention includes a silver immersion tank 1. Above the silver immersion tank 1, a suspension 2 is fixed through a column 11. Below the suspension 2, a mounting plate 3 is installed through a first driving mechanism 4 provided on its lower surface. The first driving mechanism 4 is used to drive the mounting plate 3 to move left and right. Along the left and right translation direction, second driving mechanisms 6 are respectively provided on both sides of the lower surface of the mounting plate 3.

[0028] When using this device to perform silver immersion treatment on the surface of a circuit board, the first driving mechanism 4 can drive the mounting plate 3 to move left and right, thereby driving the two holding frames 7 to move and respectively align with the silver immersion tank 1, realizing the position switching of the two holding frames 7. By the second driving mechanism 6 working to drive the holding frame 7 aligned with the silver immersion tank 1 to move down, the holding frame 7 can be sent into the silver immersion tank 1 for silver immersion processing. By setting two holding frames 7 in this device and the positions of the two holding frames 7 can be switched back and forth. While one holding frame 7 is placed in the silver immersion tank 1 for silver immersion, the other holding frame 7 is located outside the silver immersion tank 1, which is convenient for loading and unloading, realizing the switching operation of the two holding frames 7, and greatly reducing the intermittent time-consuming between two batches of circuit board silver immersion treatments.

[0029] Specifically, the first driving mechanism 4 includes a guide seat 41, a threaded rod 42, a driving motor 43, and a nut seat 44. The guide seat 41 is fixed on the surface of the suspension 2.

By the driving motor 43 working to drive the threaded rod 42 to rotate in the guide groove 411, the rotating threaded rod 42 can threadedly drive the nut seat 44 to move left and right in the guide groove 411, and then drive the mounting plate 3 to move left and right, providing a stable drive for the position switching of the two holding frames 7.

[0030] Specifically, the second driving mechanism 6 includes a fixed seat 61, a hydraulic cylinder 62 and a connecting arm 63.
