AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During the SMT printing solder paste process, gold fingers are prone to contact with the printing steel mesh, resulting in poor contact and adhesion of the solder paste. The existing methods of manually pasting high-temperature tape increase production labor hours and uncertainty, and the tape may lead to separation of sticky substances and residue after heating.

Method used

A printing fixture was designed, and the gold finger area was reversely etched on the steel mesh template using an etching groove structure to prevent the gold finger from contacting the steel mesh template, and the circuit board was limited through the clamping frame structure to ensure the stability of the connection.

Benefits of technology

It effectively avoids contact between gold fingers and steel mesh templates, reduces the bad bonds of solder paste to gold fingers, improves product quality, reduces manpower operation and material loss, and improves production efficiency.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of printing fixtures, in particular to a printing fixture for protecting the gold fingers of a circuit board. Background Technique

[0002] The gold finger is the connection point between the circuit board and the slot. If there is dust, oil stain or oxidation, it will cause poor contact.

[0003] The gold fingers on the PCB board are not allowed to be adhered with solder paste, which will affect the function and cause defects. When SMT prints solder paste, the gold fingers will contact the printing stencil, resulting in the gold fingers being contaminated with tin. The conventional method is to stick high-temperature tape at the position of the gold fingers to avoid contact between the gold fingers and any substances. However, manually sticking high-temperature tape increases the production man-hours, and manual operation increases the uncertainty. After the tape is heated in the reflow oven, the sticky substance will separate from the tape, and there will be glue residue on the gold fingers when the tape is removed, affecting the connection and transmission on the gold fingers.

[0004] Based on this, a printing fixture for protecting the gold fingers of a circuit board is proposed. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a printing fixture for protecting the gold fingers of a circuit board in order to solve the above problems.

A circuit board body is connected to the printing machine stencil. A gold finger body is connected to the lower end of the circuit board body. The gold finger body is clamped in the etching groove. A limiting mechanism for limiting the circuit board body is connected to the outside of the printing machine stencil.

[0008] Preferably, a connecting pipe is connected to the printing machine stencil, and a thread is opened in the connecting pipe.

[0009] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a clamping frame, a sleeve is connected to the clamping frame, and the sleeve is rotatably connected to the outside of the printing machine stencil through a hinge frame.

[0010] Preferably, a through hole is opened in the printing machine stencil, and a support column and a push rod are connected in the through hole.

[0011] Preferably, the upper end of the support column contacts the upper end of the clamping frame, and the lower end of the push rod contacts the lower end of the clamping frame.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-3 , the present utility model provides a technical solution:

[0023] A printing fixture for protecting the gold fingers of a circuit board, comprising a printing press stencil 1. An etching groove 6 is formed on the printing press stencil 1, and the position of the etching groove 6 corresponds to the position of the gold finger body 5. A circuit board body 3 is connected to the printing press stencil 1. The lower end of the circuit board body 3 is connected to the gold finger body 5, and the gold finger body 5 is clamped in the etching groove 6. The etching depth of the etching groove 6 is 0.05 mm. A limiting mechanism for limiting the circuit board body 3 is connected to the outside of the printing press stencil 1.

[0024] Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, a connecting pipe 2 is connected to the printing press stencil 1. Threads are provided inside the connecting pipe 2, and the connecting pipe 2 can be fixed by bolts to ensure the firm connection of the overall structure of the fixture.

[0025] Specifically, as Figure 3 shown, the limiting mechanism includes a clamping frame 4. The clamping frame 4 is U-shaped. A sleeve 10 is connected to the clamping frame 4. The sleeve 10 is rotatably connected to the outside of the printing press stencil 1 through a hinge frame 11, and the sleeve 10 is rotatably connected to the hinge frame 11.

[0026] Specifically, as Figure 3 shown, a through hole 7 is formed in the printing press stencil 1. A support column 8 and a push rod 9 are connected inside the through hole 7. The formation of the through hole 7 corresponds to the support column 8 and the push rod 9, so that the support column 8 is supported by the through hole 7 and does not fall off.

[0027] Specifically, as Figure 3 shown, the upper end of the support column 8 contacts the upper end of the clamping frame 4, and the lower end of the push rod 9 contacts the lower end of the clamping frame 4. The circuit board body 3 is used to push the support column 8, the support column 8 is used to push the push rod 9, and the push rod 9 is used to push the clamping frame 4.
