Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wave soldering carriers, in particular to a wave soldering carrier for PCB boards. Background Art
[0002] In the field of electronic manufacturing, wave soldering is a widely used process in circuit board assembly, aiming to solder the solder ends or pins of electronic components to the PCB board. There are some limitations in the design of traditional wave soldering carriers, especially in fixing the PCB board, which directly affect the welding quality and efficiency.
[0003] Existing wave soldering carriers for PCB boards usually adopt a carrier plate structure, and a plurality of accommodating positions arranged in an array are provided on the carrier plate. During the welding process, the circuit board is placed in the accommodating position and fixed by screws. However, this fixing method has several significant problems: one-way fixing limitation, the traditional fixing method can only fix the edge of the PCB board. For some larger PCB boards during the furnace passing process, it cannot meet the fixing requirements in the middle of the PCB board, resulting in problems such as the PCB board falling off due to the jitter generated when transporting the carrier or the PCB board deforming due to heat, affecting the processing accuracy; lack of flexibility, for PCB boards of different sizes and shapes, the fixing method of the existing carrier lacks sufficient flexibility. In production, there are a large number of products with different models but similar hardware solutions. The hardware layouts of such products are highly similar, but due to adapting to different housing structures or other reasons, the size of the PCB board and the fixing hole positions are often slightly adjusted. Using the traditional solution requires re-designing the carrier. Especially in R & D and small batch trial production, with continuous experiments, the PCB board is frequently adjusted, and repeated design of the carrier plate wastes a lot of time. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] Aiming at the above problems, the present application provides a wave soldering carrier for PCB boards, which can solve the problem of being unable to flexibly fix the PCB board in multiple directions.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the technical solution provided by the present application is as follows:
[0006] The wave soldering carrier for PCB board includes a tray. On the upper side of the tray, there are several accommodating grooves arranged in an array. At the grooves, there are several wave soldering openings. It also includes a fastening mechanism, a universal locking device that can fix the PCB board position in multiple directions, and a fixing frame arranged above the tray. The fixing frame is provided with a through groove. In the through groove, there are several universal locking devices. The universal locking device is limited in the vertical direction by the through groove and can move along the through groove in the horizontal direction. The fastening mechanism can limit the movement of the universal locking mechanism by squeezing both sides of the fixing frame; The fixing frame has a limiting cavity formed by the through groove, a first concave surface on one side of the through groove, and a second concave surface on the other side of the through groove. Both the first concave surface and the second concave surface are recessed outward; The universal locking device includes a locking mechanism, a fixing rod, and a universal ball arranged in the limiting cavity. The universal ball exposes part of the spherical crown from the openings at both ends of the limiting cavity. The universal ball cooperates with the first concave surface and the second concave surface, can freely rotate around its own spherical center, and can move horizontally along the through groove; The universal ball is provided with a fixing hole passing through the spherical center. The locking mechanism is coaxial with the fixing hole and fixedly connected to the universal ball. The fixing rod passes through the fixing hole and the locking mechanism at the same time and can be locked by the locking mechanism.
[0007] Preferably, the locking mechanism includes a compression tube and a taper nut; At the tail of the compression tube, there are at least two extrusion pieces arranged around the conical surface. There is an external thread on the outer side between the head and the tail of the compression tube. The inner cavity of the taper nut is provided with a corresponding internal thread. At the tail of the taper nut, there is also a conical cavity for locking the extrusion pieces. The fixing rod can pass through the compression tube and be locked by the extrusion pieces.
[0008] Preferably, the fastening mechanism includes a fastening bolt and an annular nut. The fastening bolt horizontally penetrates the fixing frame and passes through the limiting cavity. The tail of the fastening bolt is threadedly connected to the annular nut.
[0009] Preferably, an elastically deformable extrusion block is fixedly arranged at one end of the fixing rod close to the tray.
[0010] Preferably, the fixing frame is slidably connected to the tray. The fixing frame can slide in the horizontal direction and can be restricted from sliding by a positioning bolt.
[0011] Preferably, anti-slip sheets are arranged on both the first concave surface and the second concave surface. On the side of the anti-slip sheet close to the limiting cavity, there are several anti-slip protrusions.
[0012] The above technical solutions have the following advantages or beneficial effects:
[0013] 1. Set up a fastening mechanism, a universal locking device, and a fixing bracket with a through slot. On the one hand, the horizontal initial positioning can be achieved by the movement of the universal locking device along the through slot. On the other hand, the universal locking device can rotate and move the fixing rod up and down to accurately press the PCB board from multiple angles. After pressing, the locking mechanism locks the fixing rod, and the fastening mechanism fixes the universal locking device to fix the PCB board, thus being compatible with PCB boards of different sizes.
[0014] 2. At the same time, due to the ability to press from multiple angles, by changing the pressing angle, it is possible to choose to limit the side of the PCB board to fix it in the horizontal direction, or select a reasonable position on the upper side of the PCB board to press it so that it cannot shift in the vertical direction, further realizing the flexible fixation of the PCB board in multiple directions.
[0015] 3. By setting an elastically deformable extrusion block, while protecting the PCB board, the friction area is increased, making the fixation of the PCB board more firm.
[0016] 4. The fixing bracket is slidably connected to the tray and the sliding is restricted by positioning bolts, which can further accurately determine the pressing position and further improve the flexibility in use to meet complex production requirements.
[0017] 5. By setting anti-slip sheets, the universal ball can be fixed more stably, further improving the stability of fixing the PCB board. Description of the Drawings

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

The universal locking device 3 is limited in the vertical direction by the through groove 21 and can move along the through groove 21 in the horizontal direction. The fastening mechanism 4 can limit the movement of the universal locking device 3 by squeezing both sides of the fixing bracket 2.
[0029] As Figure 1 and Figure 8 shown, the fixing bracket 2 has a limiting cavity 24 formed by the through groove 21, a first concave surface 22 located on one side of the through groove 21, and a second concave surface 23 located on the other side of the through groove 21.

Specifically, as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, both the first concave surface 22 and the second concave surface 23 are recessed outward, capable of surrounding a part of the universal ball 33, thereby limiting the universal ball 33 in the vertical direction.
