Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of vertical interconnection TR component assembly, and particularly relates to a vertical interconnection TR component limiting plugging and unplugging tool. Background Art

[0002] The radar antenna unit is generally integrated and assembled based on the main frame, with the TR array and radiation array integrated forward. When assembling the TR component, the built-in micro-rectangular connector is plugged into the fixed connector on the integrated board component, and a thermal pad is pasted on the contact surface between it and the cold plate to ensure that the heat dissipation channel is unobstructed.

[0003] The antenna TR component is vertically interconnected with the integrated board component through a multi-core connector, and the side is close to the cold plate for heat dissipation. Because there is a phase change thermal pad between the cold plate and the TR component, the TR component needs to be tilted at a certain angle during disassembly and assembly, and it cannot be completely plugged in and out vertically. (1) When inserted vertically during installation, the thermal pad will be rubbed by the TR component and the cold plate, causing it to break and shift, affecting the heat conduction effect; (2) When disassembling, the phase change thermal pad has a large adhesive force, and it is almost impossible to pull it out vertically directly. It is necessary to first bend the TR component and the cold plate horizontally at a certain angle to separate the thermal pad and the TR component, and then pull it out upwards. If the TR component is tilted too much during disassembly, it will cause damage to the connector. The current actual operation does not strictly control its plug-in and pull-out angle. During the assembly process, the connector may be subjected to significant force, resulting in body cracks, pad detachment and other damage, causing product quality risks.

[0004] Therefore, a limited plug-in tooling with auxiliary prying function that can be installed and disassembled under limited protection is needed to meet the actual assembly requirements of such vertically interconnected TR components. At the same time, the limited structure is designed to be adjustable to meet different TR component assembly scenarios. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a vertically interconnected TR component limiting plugging and unplugging tool, the tool comprising an adjustable limiting structure for connecting to the vertically interconnected TR component and a handle arranged on the adjustable limiting structure for assisting plugging and unplugging, the adjustable limiting structure comprising a fixed block, a movable block and a positioning fastener, the fixed block being used to be fixedly connected to the vertically interconnected TR component, a limiting groove being formed between the fixed block and the movable block, the movable block being movable to adjust the size of the limiting groove, and the positioning fastener being used to fix the movable block on the fixed block.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. However, it should be noted that these embodiments are not limitations of the present invention, and any equivalent transformations or substitutions in functions, methods, or structures made by ordinary technicians in this field based on these embodiments are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

For example, they can refer to fixed, detachable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct or indirect connections through an intermediary; and internal communication between two components. A person skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in the present invention based on specific circumstances.

[0028] like Figures 1-8 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a vertical interconnected TR component limiting plugging and unplugging tool 1, which includes an adjustable limiting structure 11 for connecting to the vertical interconnected TR component 2 and a handle 12 arranged on the adjustable limiting structure 11 for assisting plugging and unplugging. The adjustable limiting structure 11 includes a fixed block 111, a movable block 112 and a positioning fastener 113. The fixed block 111 is used to be fixedly connected to the vertical interconnected TR component 2. A limiting groove 115 is formed between the fixed block 111 and the movable block 112. The movable block 112 moves to adjust the size of the limiting groove 115. The positioning fastener 113 is used to fix the movable block 112 on the fixed block 111.

[0029] In the above embodiment, the relative position of the movable block 112 and the fixed block 111 is adjusted to meet the required width of the limit slot 115 of the vertically interconnected TR component 2 in different assembly scenarios, and then fixed with the positioning fastener 113. The set limit slot 115 limits the inclination angle of the vertically interconnected TR component 2 during assembly and disassembly.

[0030] In some embodiments, the fixing block 111 is provided with positioning protrusions 1111 on both ends of the fixing block 111 for engaging with the positioning notches 22 of the vertically interconnected TR assembly 2, as well as prying openings 1112 for assisting in disassembly. The positioning protrusions 1111 on both sides cooperate with the positioning notches 22 to position the auxiliary tooling and the vertically interconnected TR assembly 2, and the prying openings 1112 on both sides are used to assist in prying the vertically interconnected TR assembly 2 during disassembly, thereby ensuring stable separation from the cold plate.

[0031] In some embodiments, the fixing block 111 is provided with a mounting through hole 1113 for connecting with the handle 12 and a positioning groove 1114 for limiting the positioning fastener 113 .

[0032] In some embodiments, the fixing block 111 is fixed to the vertical interconnect TR assembly 2 by a captive screw 114. The micro rectangular connector 21 of the vertical interconnect TR assembly 2 is plugged into the fixed connector 31 on the integrated board assembly 3, forming a vertical interconnect structure.

[0033] In some embodiments, the handle 12 is a T-shaped structure, the upper portion of the T-shaped structure is a hand-held portion, and the length ratio of the left and right ends is not less than 3:1.

[0034] In some embodiments, the handle 12 is a double-pillar handle formed by two T-shaped structures.

[0035] The working principle of the plugging and unplugging tool provided in the above embodiment is as follows:

[0036] like Figure 1 A reasonable adjustable limiting structure 11 is designed on the adjustable limiting plug-in tool 1 of the vertically interconnected TR component to limit the tilt angle of the TR component during assembly and disassembly in different assembly scenarios.

[0037] The maximum deflection angle θ that the connector can withstand is obtained through the connector stress test. The vertical distance H between the connector plug-in position and the bottom of the tooling limit slot is measured. The gap width d = πH·θ / 360° between the side of the tooling limit slot and the cold plate structure can be obtained by calculation, such as Figure 7 As shown. Based on this, the corresponding limit slot width is set according to the cold plate structure in different assembly scenarios. The width requirement is met by adjusting the relative position of the movable block and the fixed block of the limit structure, so that when the side of the limit slot contacts the cold plate structure, the tilt angle X of the TR component is less than the limit deflection angle θ. The limit protection allows the TR component to be disassembled and assembled under the safe force conditions of the connector. The schematic diagram of the limit protection before and after the tooling is used is shown as follows Figure 8 shown.

[0038] The method of using the plugging and unplugging tool provided in the above embodiment is as follows:

[0039] The corresponding limit groove 115 width is set according to the cold plate structure in different assembly scenarios. The relative position of the movable block 112 and the fixed block 111 of the adjustable limit plug-in tooling of the vertical interconnected TR component is adjusted to meet the width requirement, and the positioning fastener 113 is manually tightened to fix it.

[0040] 1. TR assembly installation: Fasten the vertical interconnected TR assembly adjustable limit plug-in fixture 1 with the captive screws 114 on the fixing block 111 to the position shown in the figure. Figure 3 On the TR component to be installed as shown, hold the handle 12 and place the TR component along the TR component installation slot to the position to be plugged in, adjust the angle until the side of the limiting slot of the limiting structure contacts the cold plate structure, maintain the angle and plug the TR component into the fixed connector of the integrated board, push the TR component to make it fit with the cold plate to complete the installation.

[0041] 2. Disassembly of TR components: Fasten the adjustable limit plug-in tool 1 of the vertical interconnected TR components with the captive screws 114 on the fixing block 111 to the position shown in the figure. Figure 3 On the TR assembly to be disassembled as shown, hold the handle 12 and push the TR assembly laterally away from the cold plate (if the thermal pad is too sticky to be pushed away, use a flat-head screwdriver to pry the openings on both sides of the tooling fixing block 111 at the same time to help the TR assembly be stably separated from the cold plate). The tilt angle of the TR assembly is limited by the limiting structure on the tooling. When it is pushed until the side of the tooling limit groove contacts the cold plate structure, it is the maximum tilt angle. After maintaining the angle, pull the TR assembly upward to complete the disassembly.

[0042] The plugging and unplugging tooling provided in the above embodiment meets the following process requirements:

[0043] 1. Reasonable design of tooling structure makes it convenient for operators to disassemble and assemble TR components;

[0044] 2. The tooling should have a quick positioning function to facilitate positioning and connection with TR components;

[0045] 3. The tooling is designed with appropriate prying openings to achieve auxiliary prying function when disassembling TR components;

[0046] 4. Calculate the gap value based on the connector force test and design a reasonable adjustable limit structure to ensure that the tilt angle X during assembly and disassembly of the TR component is less than the limit angle deflection θ in different assembly scenarios;

[0047] 5. Select appropriate tooling materials to ensure that the tooling has sufficient strength and can be used repeatedly;

[0048] 6. The tooling should adopt a connection form that is easy to disassemble and assemble.
