Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of soldering equipment, in particular to an adjustable blowing plate and reflow soldering equipment. Background Art
[0002] In the electronics manufacturing industry, reflow soldering equipment is a key piece of production equipment used to solder electronic components onto printed circuit boards (PCBs). The cooling zone of reflow soldering equipment typically uses a blower to cool the PCB after soldering, ensuring that the solder solidifies quickly and forms strong solder joints.
[0003] Currently, traditional reflow soldering equipment uses flux within the solder during the reflow process. When exposed to high temperatures, the flux evaporates and atomizes. When this evaporating airflow encounters the cool air from the blowholes in the cooling zone, condensation easily forms on the blower tray. If not promptly addressed, this condensation, when it reaches a certain level, can form dripping onto the PCB, resulting in poor appearance and potentially affecting the performance and reliability of electronic components.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the prior art to overcome the above defects. Utility Model Content

[0036] In order to fully understand the present application, detailed steps and detailed structures will be presented in the following description to illustrate the technical solution of the present application. The preferred embodiments of the present application are described in detail below. However, in addition to these detailed descriptions, the present application may also have other implementation methods.
[0037] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the adjustable air blower 1 shown in a preferred embodiment of the present application is suitable for installation in the cooling unit of the reflow soldering equipment for cooling the PCB board. In this embodiment, the reflow soldering equipment includes a preheating unit, a heat preservation unit, a reflow unit and a cooling unit arranged in sequence along a direction.
[0038] Specifically, the preheating unit can preheat the PCB, remove moisture from the surface of the PCB and components, and prevent thermal shock. In this embodiment, the temperature of the preheating unit can be adjusted between 50°C and 150°C, with a heating rate of 2°C / s. In other embodiments, the temperature of the preheating unit can be adjusted according to actual conditions.
[0039] The heat preservation unit is arranged on one side of the preheating unit to keep the temperature of the PCB and the components thereon stable. In this embodiment, the temperature of the heat preservation unit is controlled at 150°C-200°C for 60 seconds.
[0040] The reflow unit heats the PCB to the target temperature, allowing the solder pads on the PCB to connect to the component pins. The reflow unit can reach temperatures between 200°C and 260°C, with the heating rate and holding time adjusted to suit different soldering requirements.
[0041] The cooling unit includes the above-mentioned adjustable air blowing plate 1. After the PCB board is soldered in the reflow unit, it enters the cooling unit for cooling.
[0042] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, two blow trays 1 are connected relative to each other as a set. Each adjustable blow tray 1 comprises a frame 4, a blow plate 3, and a heat-resistant cotton structure 2 positioned below the blow plate 3. The blow plate 3 is mounted on top of the frame 4 and has a plurality of blow holes 31 through which air flows to cool the PCB. The heat-resistant cotton structure 2 is attached to the blow plate 3 and absorbs liquid located at the blow holes 31, preventing condensation on the blow tray 1 caused by the evaporation and atomization of the flux. This prevents condensation from dripping onto the PCB, potentially affecting the appearance and reliability of the electronic components.
[0043] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the diameter of the blowing hole 31 is 2 mm, which can ensure that the airflow is blown out at an appropriate speed and flow rate, so that it will not be too strong to cause damage to the components on the PCB board, and can effectively cool the board; the thickness of the high-temperature protection cotton structure 2 is 3 mm, which can not only achieve the adsorption of condensation near the blowing hole 31, but also meet the cooling requirements of the reflow soldering cooling zone for the PCB board, so that the high-temperature protection cotton structure 2 will not be too thick, which will affect the wind effect and fail to cool the PCB; nor will the high-temperature protection cotton structure 2 be too thin, which will increase the frequency of its replacement.
[0044] In this embodiment, the adjustable blower plate 1 also includes at least one magnetic element. A connecting rod and a connecting rope are protruding from the lower surface of the blower plate 3. The other end of the connecting rope is connected to the magnetic element. When the heat-resistant cotton structure 2 needs to be fixed, the magnetic element is attracted to the blower plate 3, thereby securing the heat-resistant cotton structure 2 between the magnetic element and the blower plate 3. This fixing method is simple and reliable, and it facilitates the installation and replacement of the heat-resistant cotton structure 2.
[0045] In another embodiment, the adjustable blowing tray 1 further includes a mounting plate detachably connected to the blowing plate 3. The mounting plate is provided with a plurality of air holes corresponding one to one with the blowing holes 31. The heat-resistant cotton structure 2 is configured to be clamped between the mounting plate and the blowing plate 3, which can also achieve the fixation of the heat-resistant cotton structure 2, facilitate the replacement and maintenance of the heat-resistant cotton structure 2, and ensure that the blowing tray 1 always maintains good adsorption performance.
[0046] As described above, the blowing plate 3 includes a first end 32 and a second end 33. The first end 32 is hinged to the frame 4. The second end 33 can rotate along the first end 32 under the action of an external force to change the distance between the second end 33 and the bottom of the frame 4, so as to flexibly adjust the blowing angle to adapt to PCB boards of different sizes and shapes, thereby ensuring uniformity and optimal cooling effect.
[0047] In this embodiment, the adjustable blowing plate 1 further includes an adjustment assembly that drives the second end 33 of the blowing plate 3 to move relative to the frame 4 to change the distance between the second end 33 and the bottom of the frame 4, thereby changing the angle of the blowing plate 1 relative to the PCB. Specifically, the adjustment assembly includes a driver 5 and an adjustment rod 6 connected to the driver 5. The driver 5 is capable of driving the adjustment rod 6 to move the first end 32 of the blowing plate 3 up and down, thereby adjusting the blowing angle and distance according to actual needs and improving cooling efficiency. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the driver 5 is a cylinder disposed on the outside of the blowing plate 1.
[0048] Furthermore, the adjustable air blower plate 1 includes a detector for detecting the temperature of the PCB above the air blower plate 3. This detector is connected to the control assembly to transmit real-time temperature information on the PCB to the control assembly, which in turn controls the cylinder's output shaft to move upward a target distance, thereby driving the adjustment rod 6 to move the second end 33 of the air blower plate 1, providing precise cooling control and improving welding quality. This detector can be a temperature sensor.
[0049] In summary, in this embodiment, the cooling unit includes the aforementioned adjustable air blower. After the PCB board passes through the reflow unit for soldering, it enters the cooling unit. The adjustable air blower rapidly cools the PCB board by adjusting the blowing angle and intensity. The anti-high-temperature cotton structure absorbs any condensation that may occur, preventing it from dripping onto the PCB board. The detection component monitors the temperature of the PCB board in real time and stops cooling when the temperature reaches a set value. This ensures that the temperature of the PCB board drops evenly during the cooling process, avoiding soldering defects caused by excessive local temperature differences and preventing condensation dripping from adversely affecting the PCB board.
[0050] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application. Any other improvements made based on the concept of the present application are considered to be within the scope of protection of the present application.
