[0032] In order to make the contents of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below based on specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Example 1:

[0034] See also Figure 1As shown, the present embodiment provides a cover plate, comprising: a cover plate base body and a hollow accommodating cavity 3 formed in the cover plate base body and penetrating the top end and the low end of the cover plate base body; wherein at least one pair of outer side walls of the cover plate base body and located at the bottom end edge of the cover plate base body are provided with outwardly turned connecting parts 2; and the top end of the cover plate base body and located at the circumferential side of the hollow accommodating cavity 3 is provided with a ring-shaped positioning part 10 suitable for being adsorbed.

[0035] The connecting part 2 is mainly used for subsequent welding cooperation with the PCB plate 9 in the SMT assembly system. The connecting part 2 is outwardly turned relative to the side wall of the cover plate base body, which facilitates visual inspection of the welding condition after the welding with the PCB plate 9 is completed, thereby improving the measurability of the welding result. The surface of the connecting part 2 is first plated with nickel and then plated with tin, and the tin plating process is adopted, thereby effectively ensuring the effectiveness of the welding of the cover plate with the PCB plate 9.

[0036] On the basis of the above structure, it should be noted that the hollow accommodating cavity 3 in the cover plate base body of the present embodiment extends to the top end of the cover plate base body, so that after the cover plate is connected to the PCB plate 9 by subsequent welding in the SMT assembly system, the specifications and models of the electronic components corresponding to the hollow accommodating cavity 3 inside can be inspected through the top end of the cover plate base body by using visual inspection equipment.

[0037] The positioning part 10 is used to facilitate the subsequent adsorption of the suction nozzle 8 to the corresponding position on the PCB plate 9 in the SMT assembly system, thereby improving the convenience of the welding process of the PCB plate 9 with the cover plate.

[0038] Next, an optional implementation case is described in combination with the drawings. The overall cover plate base body has a cuboid structure, the cross section of the hollow accommodating cavity 3 is rectangular, and the heights of the four side plates 1 along the depth direction of the hollow accommodating cavity 3 are consistent. The cover plate base body includes four side plates 1 used to combine to form a cuboid structure, and the positioning part 10 includes a ring-shaped top plate connected to the top ends of the four side plates 1. One pair of oppositely arranged side plates 1 among the four side plates 1 are integrally provided with a connecting part 2 on the outer side wall away from the hollow accommodating cavity 3. For a cover plate with a regular shape, on the one hand, it is convenient for the product to be relatively stacked and stored, thereby avoiding the deformation of the connecting part 2 caused by extrusion, which affects the subsequent welding with the PCB plate 9; on the other hand, it is convenient for processing and forming. In an optional implementation case, each side plate 1 and the ring-shaped top plate are made of stainless steel, thereby preventing the deformation of the cover plate during transportation and circulation, and effectively improving the shielding effect.

[0039] In addition, on the basis of the above structure, the present embodiment further provides a ventilation hole 4 on at least one side plate 1. The design of the ventilation hole 4 facilitates the heat dissipation of the components in the hollow accommodating cavity 3 of the cover plate after the cover plate is welded with the PCB plate 9. In an example described in combination with the drawings, one ventilation hole 4 is provided on each side plate 1.

[0040] In summary, for the cover plate of this embodiment, the connection portion 2 provided on the cover plate base can be used to achieve welding fixation with the PCB board 9, thereby improving the convenience of the mutual fixing operation of the cover plate and the PCB board 9.

[0041] Example 2:

[0042] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, based on the cover plate of Example 1, this embodiment provides a braided feeding assembly, including: a carrier belt 5, a plurality of material troughs 6 with hollow receiving cavities protruding to one side and integrally formed on the carrier belt 5 and arranged at intervals along its length direction, and a cover plate of Example 1 suitable for being one-to-one built into the material trough 6; wherein the trough openings of the plurality of material troughs 6 are on the same end face; and when the cover plate is built into the material trough 6, the positioning portion 10 of the cover plate faces the trough opening of the material trough 6.

[0043] It should be noted that, in an optional embodiment, the sidewalls of the trough 6 are made of a transparent material. Considering the convenience of integrally processing the carrier belt 5, both the carrier belt 5 and the trough 6 are integrally formed from a transparent material. The transparent material used for the trough 6 facilitates visual inspection of the cover plate within the trough 6 during subsequent SMT assembly processing, preventing the cover plate from being missed due to processing errors.

[0044] In addition, a plurality of positioning holes 7 are provided on the carrier belt 5 along the arrangement direction of the plurality of material slots 6. The design of the positioning holes 7 facilitates the precise positioning of the carrier belt 5 in the subsequent SMT assembly system, thereby improving the reliability of the loading process.

[0045] In summary, for the braided loading assembly of this embodiment, placing multiple cover plates in the material slot 6 of the carrier belt 5 and then cooperating with the suction nozzle 8 can realize a series of automated loading, thereby improving the efficiency of the subsequent SMT assembly process.

[0046] Example 3:

[0047] See also Figure 4 As shown, based on the braided feeding component of Example 2, this embodiment provides an SMT assembly system, including: the braided feeding component of Example 2, a suction nozzle 8 for adsorbing the cover plate in the material trough 6, and a PCB board 9 suitable for being welded to the connecting part 2 on the cover plate base.

[0048] It should be noted that, in order to improve the reliability of the solder structure formed by the cover plate and the PCB 9, a solder pad 91 with an area of 2mm or more larger than the connecting part 2 of the cover plate is designed on the PCB 9, so that after soldering, the equipment can check the soldering condition through visual inspection, and the measurability is improved.
