[0026] Example 1
[0027] like Figs. 1 to 3 As shown, a printed circuit board with a stable star and moon screw hole structure according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a circuit board body 100, a copper ring 101 provided on the circuit board body 100, a screw hole 102 provided at the center of the copper ring 101, a plurality of grounding holes 103 provided on the copper ring 101, and a stress relief channel 104 provided on the copper ring 101.
[0028] A copper ring 101 is precisely fabricated on the circuit board body 100 using processes such as etching or electroplating. A screw hole 102 is drilled in the center of the copper ring 101. Grounding holes 103 are drilled on the copper ring 101. The grounding holes 103 are ensured to be evenly distributed and of consistent diameter to guarantee good grounding performance. Stress relief channels 104 are fabricated on the copper ring 101 using chemical etching, laser etching, or mechanical processing methods.
[0029] In this embodiment, by setting the stress relief channel 104, the stress generated when the screw is tightened can be dispersed and guided, reducing the damage of stress to the printed circuit board, effectively preventing problems such as peeling and falling off of the copper ring 101 in the screw hole 102, extending the service life of the circuit board, and improving the reliability of the product.
[0030] like Fig. 2 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the stress relief channel 104 extends at one end to the inner edge of the copper ring 101 and at the other end to the outer edge of the copper ring 101.
[0031] In the embodiment, one end of the stress release channel 104 extends to the inner edge of the copper ring 101, and the other end extends to the outer edge of the copper ring 101. The stress release channel 104 penetrates the copper ring 101 and forms a expansion joint on the copper ring 101, so that the copper ring 101 has better deformation ability and releases stress. The copper ring 101 can flexibly adjust its own form when facing stress. Through the expansion joint, the stress is evenly dispersed on the copper ring 101, preventing concentration in a local part to cause damage to the copper ring 101, effectively preventing common problems such as copper ring 101 peeling and falling off of the screw hole 102, prolonging the service life of the circuit board, significantly improving the reliability of the product in actual use, and ensuring the stable operation of the printed circuit board under various working conditions.
[0032] As shown in Fig. 2 In a preferred example, the width of the narrowest part of the stress release channel 104 is 0.5mm-1mm.
[0033] In the embodiment, by limiting the width of the narrowest part of the stress release channel 104, it is ensured that the stress release channel 104 has enough space to deform, thereby effectively releasing the stress generated when the screw is tightened. When the stress is transmitted to the stress release channel 104, the appropriate width allows the stress to be reasonably dispersed, avoiding excessive stress concentration. At the same time, this width does not excessively weaken the overall structural strength of the copper ring 101, ensuring that the copper ring 101 still plays a good role in carrying current and maintaining the stability of the circuit board. If the width is too narrow, the stress release function may not be fully realized, resulting in a risk of damage to the copper ring 101 under a large stress; and if the width is too wide, the electrical and mechanical properties of the copper ring 101 may be damaged, affecting the normal operation of the circuit board. Therefore, by setting the width of the narrowest part of the stress release channel 104 to 0.5mm-1mm, the stress release function is ensured while the overall performance and reliability of the copper ring 101 and the circuit board are taken into account.
[0034] As shown in Fig. 2 In a preferred example, the stress release channel 104 is located in the middle of the adjacent grounding hole 103.
[0035] By setting the stress release channel 104 in the middle of the adjacent grounding hole 103, on the one hand, the stress release channel 104 can release stress, and on the other hand, the integrity of the grounding hole 103 is ensured, and the grounding hole 103 can always maintain good electrical connection to ensure the stability of the grounding, thereby ensuring the stable and reliable electrical performance of the printed circuit board.
[0036] As shown in Fig. 2 In a preferred example, a plurality of stress release channels 104 are provided, and the plurality of stress release channels 104 are evenly distributed on the copper ring 101.
[0037] In this embodiment, by setting multiple stress release channels 104, on the one hand, the deformation ability of the copper ring 101 is improved, and the stress can be released faster. The uniform distribution of the layout makes the stress evenly spread on the copper ring 101, avoiding the emergence of local stress concentration weak points, greatly improving the stress bearing capacity of the copper ring 101. On the other hand, this design strengthens the overall protection of the copper ring 101, so that the copper ring 101 can flexibly cope with stress at all parts, effectively preventing problems such as deformation, peeling, and other problems of the copper ring 101 caused by uneven stress, thereby ensuring the electrical connection stability of the circuit board and improving the reliability and service life of the product.
[0038] As shown in Fig. 2 In a preferred example, the copper ring 101 is provided with a round corner at the stress release channel 104.
[0039] The round corner can disperse stress and avoid excessive stress concentration at sharp corners. Because stress concentration points are easily generated at right angles or sharp corners, leading to premature fatigue damage of the copper ring 101. The presence of a round corner allows stress to gradually spread along a smooth arc, preventing local stress concentration and enhancing the resistance of the copper ring 101 to stress.
[0040] Embodiment 2
[0041] The difference from embodiment 1 is that the stress release channel 104 includes a first channel 105 and a second channel 106, and the first channel 105 and the second channel 106 are provided at least one, the first channel 105 extends to the inner edge of the copper ring 101, and the second channel 106 extends to the outer edge of the copper ring 101.
[0042] The first channel 105 and the second channel 106 have a coincident section 107 in the radial direction of the copper ring 101.
[0043] In this embodiment, the first channel 105 extends to the inner edge of the copper ring 101, and the second channel 106 extends to the outer edge of the copper ring 101, and only extends to one side edge of the copper ring 101, ensuring the integrity of the entire copper ring 101, preventing the weakening of the structural strength caused by the through channel. At the same time, the first channel 105 and the second channel 106 can also quickly release the stress generated at different positions of the copper ring 101. The first channel 105 and the second channel 106 have a coincident section 107 in the radial direction of the copper ring 101, so that the stress release channel 104 is distributed completely in the radial direction of the copper ring 101, ensuring the stress release effect.
[0044] As shown in Fig. 2 In a preferred example, the width of the first channel 105 and the second channel 106 gradually changes, and the width near one end of the edge is greater than the width of the other end.
[0045] When the stress is released, the wider channel can better buffer the stress from the edge of the copper ring 101, so that the stress can be evenly dispersed in the transmission process. The edge stress of the copper ring 101 is large, and the wider near the edge ensures that the channel has sufficient carrying capacity in the key stress area, effectively preventing the copper ring 101 from being damaged due to excessive stress.
[0046] As shown in Fig. 2 In a preferred example, the included angle between the first channel 105, the second channel 106 and the adjacent edge of the copper ring 101 is a rounded angle.
[0047] When the stress is transmitted to these corner parts, the rounded angle can effectively disperse the stress and avoid stress concentration at the sharp corners. Compared with a right angle or an acute angle, the rounded angle allows the stress to be evenly distributed along a smooth arc, thereby reducing the risk of material fatigue and damage caused by stress concentration and helping to enhance the overall structural stability of the copper ring 101.
[0048] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
