[0029] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, the present application provides an embodiment of a spring pressing cover fixture for improving the deformation of a shielding frame or a shielding cover. The spring pressing cover fixture for improving the deformation of a shielding frame or a shielding cover includes a tray 100 and a pressing cover 200. The tray 100 includes a tray 100 body. A placing groove 1101 is provided at the central position of the tray 100 body. A plurality of first ventilation holes 1102 are provided in the placing groove 1101. A PCB board 1 is placed in the placing groove 1101. A plurality of pressing cover connectors 120 are provided outside the placing groove 1101. The pressing cover 200 includes a pressing cover body 210. The pressing cover body 210 is in a plate shape. A plurality of second ventilation holes 2101 are provided at the central position of the pressing cover body 210 corresponding to the plurality of first ventilation holes 1102. Vertically downward spring pins 220 are provided outside the edges of the second ventilation holes 2101. The pressing cover body 210 is detachably connected to the pressing cover connectors 120 respectively. The bottom ends of the spring pins 220 are pressed against the four corner positions of the shielding frame or the shielding cover on the PCB board 1 in the placing groove 1101 to prevent the shielding frame or the shielding cover on the PCB board 1 from warping. In the present utility model, by adding the pressing cover connectors 120 on the tray 100 to limit the height of the pressing cover body 210, when the PCB board 1 is placed in the placing groove 1101 on the tray 100 body and the pressing cover 200 is covered, the pressing cover connectors 120 limit the height of the pressing cover 200, and the spring pins 220 apply pressure to the four corners of the shielding frame or the shielding cover. The four corners of the shielding frame or the shielding cover are subjected to the downward pressure of the spring pins 220, and the warped and deformed body is reshaped, and the frame is flat against the pad, and there is no false soldering or floating height during welding. Similarly, during transportation, it can also ensure that the shielding frame or the shielding cover does not deform.
[0030] In this embodiment, the first vent hole 1102 and the second vent hole 2101 are milled empty windows to facilitate the convection of hot air during reflow soldering, so that the PCB board 1 is heated evenly. The placement groove 1101 is a downwardly concave groove, and generally the groove depth is slightly smaller than the thickness of the PCB board 1 to keep the PCB board 1 flat on the surface of the tray 100 body. The middle first vent hole 1102 provides support for each small single board of the PCB board 1 and avoids holes for the fixing feet of the shielding frame, facilitating heat absorption of the PCB board 1 during reflow.
[0031] SMT soldering generally uses the reflow soldering process. A pressure cover 200 is added to the reflow soldering tooling for the mounted shielding frame and shielding cover. The spring pin 220 ensures that the border of each shielding frame or shielding cover is attached to the PCB pad after mounting, preventing problems such as false soldering and floating height during reflow soldering in the furnace.
[0032] As Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, in one embodiment, the spring pin 220 includes a guide sleeve 2202, a spring 2203, a pressure pin 2204, and a fixing screw 2201. A limit hole 230 is provided outside the included angle position of the second vent hole 2101. The guide sleeve 2202 is fitted in the limit hole 230. The spring 2203 is sleeved on the fixing screw 2201. One end of the fixing screw 2201 sleeved with the spring 2203 passes through the guide sleeve 2202 and is connected to the pressure pin 2204. The spring 2203 gives an upward elastic force to the fixing screw 2201 and a downward elastic force to the pressure pin 2204, balancing and stabilizing the force on the entire PCB board 1. The guide sleeve 2202 guides the fixing screw 2201 to keep it vertically up and down, guiding the downward extrusion of the spring pin 220 on the shielding cover or shielding frame to prevent the spring pin 220 from generating downward displacement. When the pressure cover 200 is pressed down, the pressure pin 2204 can effectively press the four corners of the shielding frame or shielding cover under the action of the spring 2203, so that the warping deformation of the shielding frame or shielding cover on the PCB board 1 is corrected. And in this embodiment, the spring pin 220 presses down accurately and the structure of the pressure cover 200 is simple.
[0033] As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in one embodiment, the gland connection member 120 includes a gland height pillar, and a buckle body 1202 fixed to the gland height pillar and protruding outward from the gland height pillar. The buckle body 1202 can rotate around the central axis of the gland height pillar, and the lower end of the buckle body 1202 is pressed against the gland body 210. The buckle body 1202 is a water-drop-shaped plate body. When the gland 200 is assembled onto the tray 100, the buckle body 1202 is rotated so that its protruding part extends above the gland body 210. The gland height pillar controls the downward pressing height of the gland 200. With the cooperation of the spring pin 220 and the buckle body 1202, the gland 200 is fixed. Multiple spring pins 220 form a stable downward pressure on the shielding frame or shielding cover on the PCB board 1 in the lower storage slot 1101, correcting the deformation of the shielding frame or shielding cover and keeping it flat.
[0034] As Figure 1 shown, in one embodiment, the gland height pillar includes a fixed threaded post 1201, a fixed buckle screw 1204, and a buckle cylinder 1203. The fixed threaded post 1201 is fixed to the tray 100 body. The buckle cylinder 1203, the buckle body 1202, and the fixed buckle screw 1204 are sequentially penetrated through the fixed threaded post 1201. The buckle body 1202 is pressed against the buckle cylinder 1203, and the fixed buckle screw 1204 is fixed above the buckle body 1202. The buckle cylinder 1203 is a cylinder with a through hole in the center. Multiple buckle cylinders 1203 are stacked up and down to control the height below the buckle body 1202. The fixed buckle screw 1204 locks the buckle body 1202 to the gland body 210, so that the gland 200 cannot move arbitrarily, so that the buckle body 1202 will not bounce up after pressing down the gland 200, and the pressing pin 2204 remains effective.
[0035] In this embodiment, there are three buckle cylinders 1203, and the heights of the two lower ones are the same, and the height of the uppermost buckle cylinder 1203 is smaller. Different combinations of buckle cylinders 1203 are used to control the height below the buckle body 1202.
[0036] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, in one embodiment, the tray 100 is provided with a plurality of high pins 130, and the gland body 210 is correspondingly provided with a plurality of positioning holes 250. When the gland body 210 is sleeved, the top of the high pin 130 is inserted into the positioning hole 250. In this embodiment, there are four high pins 130, which are respectively fixed in pairs at opposite ends of the tray 100, and the high pins 130 at both ends are asymmetrically arranged. The vertical high pins 130 and the positioning holes 250 cooperate with each other to play a guiding role and facilitate the quick positioning of the spring pin 220. The asymmetric design of the high pins 130 at both ends can position the gland 200 when it is sleeved and prevent the gland 200 from being placed upside down.
[0037] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in one embodiment, on the body of the tray 100, at both ends of the object placing groove 1101, there are also provided object taking grooves 240, and the two object taking grooves 240 are symmetrically arranged. Generally, the groove depth of the object taking groove 240 is greater than that of the object placing groove 1101, which is convenient for grasping the edge of the board after welding to perform the board taking operation.
[0038] As Figure 3 shown, in one embodiment, corresponding to the positions of the two object taking grooves 240, a third ventilation hole is provided on the cover body 210. The third ventilation hole is an empty window, which is beneficial to the convection of hot air during reflow soldering, so that the PCB board 1 is heated evenly.
[0039] In one embodiment, photosensitive paint is applied to the two track edges at the bottom of the tray 100 body. The photosensitive paint facilitates the fixture to be sensed by the processing equipment, which is convenient for automated production and detection. It should be understood that for those of ordinary skill in the art, improvements or transformations can be made according to the above description, and all such improvements and transformations should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims of the present utility model.
[0040] The above has described the patent of the present utility model in an exemplary manner with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the implementation of the patent of the present utility model is not limited by the above methods. As long as various improvements are made by adopting the method concept and technical solution of the patent of the present utility model, or the concept and technical solution of the patent of the present utility model are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the protection scope of the present utility model.
