Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of IGBT module technology, and in particular to a positioning fixture for IGBT modules to prevent pin damage. Background Technology

[0002] IGBT modules, or Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors, are composite fully controllable voltage-driven power semiconductor devices composed of BJTs (Bipolar Junction Transistors) and MOS (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors). They combine the advantages of high input impedance of MOSFETs and low on-state voltage drop of GTRs. When installing IGBT modules, screws are used to install the IGBT module and the PCB board, and then the pins of the IGBT module are soldered.

[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent (application number "202222156334.0") disclosing "a positioning fixture for soldering IGBT modules on a PCB board." This positioning fixture includes a fixture base, a fixture body mounted on the base, a module placement slot on the top surface of the fixture body, and a flip clamp assembly and a quick clamp assembly at opposite ends of the top surface of the fixture body. The flip clamp assembly includes a support fixedly mounted on the outer wall of one end of the fixture body, a flip pressure plate rotatably mounted on the support via a pivot, and several adjusting grooves and several stepped holes on the same side of the flip pressure plate. Several pressure posts are slidably mounted in the adjusting grooves, and a clamping rod assembly is movably mounted in the stepped holes. However, during use, when positioning and installing the IGBT module using this positioning fixture, tightening the screws can easily cause slight shaking of the IGBT module, resulting in damage to the IGBT module's pins, thus reducing its practicality. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention provides a positioning fixture for IGBT modules to prevent pin damage, solving the problem that the positioning fixture proposed in the prior art is prone to slight shaking of the IGBT module when the screws are tightened during positioning and installation, resulting in pin damage and low practicality.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A positioning fixture for an IGBT module to prevent pin damage includes a positioning plate. The bottom of the positioning plate has four connecting mechanisms, each including a connecting rod and a limiting ring. Limiting mechanisms are provided on both sides of the positioning plate. Each limiting mechanism includes a mounting plate bolted to the outer wall of one side of the positioning plate, a lead screw threaded through and screwed to the outer wall of the mounting plate, a limiting plate connected to the outer wall of one end of the lead screw via a bearing, and a connecting post fixed to the outer wall of the top of the limiting plate. The positioning plate also has several fixing mechanisms, each including a fixing plate bolted to the outer wall of the top of the positioning plate, a screw threaded through and screwed to the outer wall of the bottom of the fixing plate, and a fixing block.

[0007] Preferably, two operating holes are opened on the outer walls of both sides of the top of the positioning plate, and two sliding grooves are opened on the outer wall of the top of the positioning plate between the two operating holes.

[0008] Preferably, the connecting rod is bolted to the bottom outer wall of the positioning plate, and the limiting ring is bonded to the lower outer wall of the connecting rod.

[0009] The above method involves placing multiple IGBT modules on a PCB board, then using four connecting rods to pass through the through holes of the IGBT modules on both sides of the PCB board, and simultaneously using four rubber limiting rings to contact the IGBT modules to achieve overall positioning.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting column is slidably installed in the groove, and a limit block is bolted to the outer wall of the top of the connecting column.

[0011] Preferably, the fixing block is connected to the lower outer wall of the screw via a bearing, and a rubber pad is adhered to the outer wall of the fixing block.

[0012] Preferably, two limiting rods are fixed on the top outer wall of the fixing block, and the two limiting rods are respectively inserted through and slidably installed on the top outer wall of the fixing plate.

[0013] The above scheme uses a lead screw to rotate and move a limiting plate. The limiting plate contacts the IGBT module in the middle of the PCB board, so that the through hole on the IGBT module matches the through hole on the PCB board. Then, the screw is rotated to make the fixing block descend and contact the edge of the PCB board, thereby limiting the entire position.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] The lead screw rotates, causing the limiting plate to move. The limiting plate contacts the IGBT module in the middle position on the PCB board, so that the through hole on the IGBT module matches the through hole position on the PCB board. Then, the screw is rotated, causing the fixing block to descend and contact the edge of the PCB board, thereby limiting the overall position. This can fix the IGBT module during positioning and installation, preventing the IGBT module from shaking and damaging the pins when tightening the screws, thus improving practicality.
