Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of assembly, and particularly relates to a welding tool for a brick-shaped power module. Background Art

[0002] In power products of board cards, brick-shaped power modules are often used, as shown in Figure 1 . After the power module is welded to the printed circuit board, it is then installed in the reinforcement frame. Since the power module generates a large amount of heat, heat-conducting grease is often applied to the contact surface between the power module and the reinforcement frame to eliminate the air thermal resistance and thus accelerate heat dissipation. This requires that after the power board with the welded power module is installed on the reinforcement frame, the power module and the reinforcement frame are in good contact. However, due to the tolerance in the height of each power module, if the power modules are all welded to the root of the pins, when the printed circuit board is installed in the reinforcement frame, some power modules may not contact the reinforcement frame. To avoid the above problems, in the production process, it is necessary to use the reinforcement frame as a tool to ensure the welding height of the power module, but the efficiency of placing the power module is very low. If there is a slight misalignment, the printed circuit board needs to be picked up, the position of the power module needs to be readjusted, and then the printed circuit board is dropped into the reinforcement frame until all the pins of the power modules can pass through the corresponding pads on the printed circuit board smoothly.

[0012] The present utility model proposes a welding tooling for a brick-shaped power module to improve the welding efficiency and consistency of the brick-shaped power module. As Figure 2 shown, this tooling is a cuboid, with an internal hollowing to form a box body. The hollowing depth is 11.9 mm, and on the bottom surface of the hollowed space, there are left grooves, middle grooves and right grooves with a depth of 1 mm; among them, the left groove is L-shaped, the overall length of the left groove is 59 mm, and the width is 116.5 mm (corresponding to the length and width directions of the overall tooling. All lengths in this article refer to the left and right directions of the screen, and all widths refer to the up and down directions of the screen); the middle groove is rectangular, the overall length of the middle groove is 59 mm, and the width is 113.5 mm; the right groove is rectangular, the overall length of the left groove is 51.8 mm, and the width is 26.3 mm. There are 2 threaded holes on the upper part of this tooling, 1 threaded hole on the left part, 2 threaded holes on the lower part, 1 threaded hole on the right part, and 1 threaded hole in the middle, which are used to connect the printed circuit board after the power module is placed.

[0013] Among them, the length of this tooling is 219 mm, the width is 160 mm, and the thickness is 16.5 mm.

[0014] Among them, this tooling is a special tooling for assembling the brick-shaped power module. For example, Figure 1 the power modules G3 and G5 in are placed in the left groove, the power modules G2 and G4 are placed in the middle groove, and the power module G1 is placed in the right groove.

[0015] Among them, the left groove includes two parts: the upper left groove and the lower right groove. The length of the upper left groove is 59 mm, the width is 56.9 mm, the length of the lower right groove is 38.1 mm, and the width is 59.6 mm.

[0016] Among them, the lower part of the upper left groove is connected to the upper part of the lower right groove, and the distance between the left end of the upper left groove and the left end of the lower right groove is 24 mm.

[0017] Among them, rounded corners with a radius of 1.5 mm are provided at the corners of the left groove, the middle groove and the right groove.

[0018] Among them, the middle threaded hole is located below the right groove and on the right side of the middle groove.

[0019] Among them, the overall material of this tooling is aluminum or steel.

[0020] Among them, the surface of this tooling is treated with rust prevention for easy reuse.

[0021] Among them, the flatness of the bottom surface of this tooling is 0.2, and the parallelism of the top end face relative to the bottom surface is 0.1.

[0022] When welding the brick-type power module, first place 5 power modules in the left groove, the middle groove and the right groove of this tooling, that is, Figure 2 in the groove with a depth of 1 mm, the flange of the power module faces down and touches the groove, and the pins of the power module face up. At this time, the horizontal position of the power module is limited;

[0023] Subsequently, use pan head screws to install the printed circuit board on the top end face of this tooling, that is, Figure 2 (a) On the plane of the front view where the threaded hole is located, by controlling the tolerance of the limiting dimension of the groove, it can ensure that the pins of the power module are accurately and quickly inserted into the solder pads of the printed circuit board; at the same time, through the height dimension from the top end face of this tooling to the groove, that is, Figure 2 the dimension in the cross-sectional view accurately control the distance between the printed circuit board and the power module to eliminate the incoming height tolerance of the power module, ensure that the height dimension of the printed circuit board assembly after welding is consistent, and ensure that the power modules all contact the reinforcement frame well.

[0027] This tooling of the utility model can quickly and accurately position the power module and the printed circuit board at one time, while ensuring high consistency in subsequent welding, and improving the welding efficiency of the brick-type power module. In the production process, it also avoids the risk of damaging the reinforcement frame parts and reduces the protection process of the reinforcement frame; during mass production, it also helps to optimize the production process, facilitates the welding of the product on the machine, and significantly shortens the production cycle of the product.

[0028] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the technical principle of the utility model, several improvements and modifications can be made, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the utility model.
