[0058] Example 1
[0059] This embodiment provides a mounting bracket for fixing circuit boards and electronic components, which improves the problem of pin wobbling during the soldering process between electronic components and circuit boards, and improves the soldering quality between electronic components and circuit boards.
[0060] This mounting bracket is used inside a signal light, specifically, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the mounting bracket includes a bracket body 100, a positioning element 200, and a fixing structure 300. The positioning element 200 is mounted on the bracket body 100 and located below the circuit board 10 inside the signal light. The positioning element 200 has a positioning hole 210, which corresponds to a soldering hole 11 on the circuit board 10. The fixing structure 300 is mounted on the bracket body 100 and includes an adjustable mounting space for accommodating electronic components 20 extending from the circuit board 10. One pin 21 of the electronic component 20 extends out of the mounting space and passes through the positioning hole 210 and the corresponding soldering hole 11.
[0061] The mounting bracket provided in this embodiment can fix the circuit board 10 and the electronic component 20 respectively through the positioning member 200 and the fixing structure 300, preventing relative movement between the circuit board 10 and the electronic component 20. Furthermore, the positioning holes 210 on the positioning member 200 can fix the pins 21 of the electronic component 20, preventing poor soldering due to pin displacement during the soldering process between the pins 21 and the circuit board 10. This improves the soldering quality between the circuit board 10 and the electronic component 20, thereby enhancing the reliability of their operation. Moreover, fixing the circuit board 10 and the electronic component 20 with the mounting bracket also reduces the soldering difficulty. Additionally, the adjustable mounting space allows the mounting bracket to be used with electronic components 20 of different sizes, demonstrating high versatility.
[0062] Alternatively, in one possible embodiment, the electronic component 20 can be a resistor with a voltage-dropping function. Resistors of different resistance values have different sizes; therefore, the mounting space can be adjusted to accommodate resistors of different sizes.
[0063] Optionally, see [link to relevant documentation] Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the positioning element 200 is a positioning plate, which is supported under the circuit board 10. The positioning element 200 has a simple structure and is easy to process.
[0064] Further, see also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The installation space and positioning element 200 are spaced apart. This arrangement ensures an electrical clearance between the electronic component 20 and the circuit board 10, which helps protect both the circuit board 10 and the electronic component 20. Furthermore, it avoids direct heat transfer between the electronic component 20 and the circuit board 10, thereby controlling the temperature rise of the circuit board 10 and protecting it.
[0065] Optionally, see [link to relevant documentation] Figure 1 and Figure 2The fixing structure 300 includes a first fixing plate 310 and a second fixing plate 320. The first fixing plate 310 is disposed on the support body 100 and close to the positioning member 200. The first fixing plate 310 has a first notch 311 for accommodating one pin 21 of the electronic component 20. The second fixing plate 320 is disposed on the support body 100 and is positioned close to or away from the first fixing plate 310 to form an adjustable mounting space. The electronic component 20 is disposed between the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320. The second fixing plate 320 has a second notch 321 corresponding to the first notch 311 for accommodating the other pin 21 of the electronic component 20.
[0066] The method for fixing electronic component 20 using the fixing structure 300 is as follows:
[0067] First, move the second fixing plate 320 away from the first fixing plate 310 to ensure that the distance between the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320 is greater than the length of the electronic component 20.
[0068] Then, insert one pin 21 of the electronic component 20 into the positioning hole 210 and the soldering hole 11;
[0069] Then, the main body of the electronic component 20 is placed between the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320, while the pin 21 of the insertion positioning hole 210 is inserted into the first notch 311, and the other pin 21 of the electronic component 20 is inserted into the second notch 321.
[0070] Finally, adjust the position of the second fixing plate 320 so that the second fixing plate 320 and the first fixing plate 310 fix the electronic component 20.
[0071] The electronic component 20 is fixed by a fixing structure 300 formed by the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320. The structure is simple and facilitates the assembly of the electronic component 20.
[0072] It is understandable that by adjusting the distance between the second fixing plate 320 and the first fixing plate 310, the size of the installation space can be adjusted. The structure is simple, the adjustment is convenient, and the effect of fixing the electronic components 20 is better.
[0073] In this embodiment, the first fixing plate 310 and the positioning plate are spaced apart to ensure electrical clearance between the circuit board 10 and the electronic component 20. The distance between the first fixing plate 310 and the positioning plate can be set according to actual needs, and this application does not impose a specific limitation.
[0074] Further, see also Figure 2In one possible embodiment, the first notch 311 may be flared, and a pin 21 of the electronic component 20 enters the first notch 311 through the larger opening end. By setting the first notch 311 to be flared, it is convenient to assemble the pin 21 of the electronic component 20 with the first notch 311.
[0075] In other embodiments, the first notch 311 may also include a flared portion 3211, an interference fit 3212 connected to the flared portion 3211, and a locking portion 3213 connected to the interference fit 3212. When mounting the pin 21 at the other end of the electronic component 20, the pin 21 is squeezed into the interference fit 3212 through the larger opening of the flared portion 3211, and then the pin 21 is pushed further to pass through the interference fit 3212 and enter the locking portion 3213, thus completing the assembly of the pin 21 with the second notch 321. The flared portion 3211 makes it easier for the pin 21 to be squeezed into the interference fit 3212. The interference fit 3212 prevents the pin 21 from coming out of the locking portion 3213, improving the reliability of the connection between the pin 21 and the second notch 321.
[0076] Alternatively, in one possible embodiment, the second notch 321 may also be trumpet-shaped.
[0077] Optionally, see [link to relevant documentation] Figure 2 In other possible embodiments, the second notch 321 may further include a flared portion 3211, an interference fit 3212 connected to the flared portion 3211, and a snap-fit portion 3213 connected to the interference fit 3212. When mounting the pin 21 at the other end of the electronic component 20, the pin 21 is squeezed into the interference fit 3212 through the larger opening of the flared portion 3211, and then the pin 21 is pushed further to pass through the interference fit 3212 and enter the snap-fit portion 3213, thus completing the assembly of the pin 21 with the second notch 321. The flared portion 3211 makes it easier for the pin 21 to be squeezed into the interference fit 3212. The interference fit 3212 prevents the pin 21 from coming out of the snap-fit portion 3213, improving the reliability of the connection between the pin 21 and the second notch 321.
[0078] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the support body 100 includes a first column 110 and a second column 120. One end of the first column 110 is provided with a positioning member 200 and a first fixing plate 310. One end of the second column 120 is provided with a second fixing plate 320, and the other end of the second column 120 is slidably connected to the other end of the first column 110. An elastic member 400 is provided between the first column 110 and the second column 120, with one end connected to the first column 110 and the other end connected to the second column 120.
[0079] The sliding connection between the first column 110 and the second column 120, along with the cooperation of the elastic element 400, allows the distance between the second fixed plate 320 and the first fixed plate 310 to be adjustable. The structure is simple, easy to process, and also facilitates the assembly of electronic components 20.
[0080] It is worth noting that when the elastic member 400 is not subjected to external force, the distance between the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320 should be greater than the length of the main body of the electronic component 20, so that when the electronic component 20 is installed between the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320, the elastic force of the elastic member 400 can clamp the electronic component 20 between the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320.
[0081] Optionally, see [link to relevant documentation] Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first column 110 has a first connecting hole 111 at one end, and the second column 120 has a second connecting hole 121 at the other end. To achieve a sliding connection between the first column 110 and the second column 120, the other end of the first column 110 can be slidably connected to the second connecting hole 121; alternatively, the other end of the second column 120 can be slidably connected to the first connecting hole 111. Furthermore, a first connecting bracket 112 is provided within the first connecting hole 111, and a second connecting bracket 122 is provided within the second connecting hole 121. One end of the elastic element 400 is connected to the first connecting bracket 112, and the other end is connected to the second connecting bracket 122. The first connecting bracket 112 and the second connecting bracket 122 enable the elastic element 400 to connect with the first column 110 and the second column 120, resulting in a simple structure that is easy to assemble.
[0082] Understandably, the elastic element 400 is optional but not limited to a tension spring.
[0083] Further, see also Figure 3 and Figure 4 A first slot 1122 can be provided on the first connecting frame 112, and one end of the elastic member 400 can be hung on the first connecting frame 112 by engaging with one end of the elastic member 400 through the first slot 1122, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the elastic member 400 and the first connecting frame 112. Alternatively, a second slot 1222 can be provided on the second connecting frame 122, and the other end of the elastic member 400 can be hung on the second connecting frame 122 by engaging with the second slot 1222, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the elastic member 400 and the second connecting frame 122.
[0084] Optionally, a first guide slope 1121 can be provided on the first connecting frame 112, and the first guide slope 1121 is inclined toward the first slot 1122. In this way, during the process of inserting one end of the elastic member 400 into the first slot 1122, the first guide slope 1121 can guide one end of the elastic member 400 into the first slot 1122, reducing the assembly difficulty between one end of the elastic member 400 and the first slot 1122.
[0085] Alternatively, a second guide slope 1221 can be provided on the second connecting bracket 122, with the second guide slope 1221 inclined toward the second slot 1222. In this way, during the process of inserting the other end of the elastic member 400 into the second slot 1222, the second guide slope 1221 can guide the other end of the elastic member 400 into the second slot 1222, reducing the assembly difficulty between the other end of the elastic member 400 and the second slot 1222.
[0086] In this embodiment, a first guide slope 1121 is provided on both opposite sides of the first slot 1122, and a second guide slope 1221 is provided on both opposite sides of the second slot 1222.
[0087] Optionally, the first column 110, the positioning member 200, and the first fixing plate 310 can be an integral structure, which facilitates processing and assembly. Similarly, the second column 120 can also be an integral structure with the second fixing plate 320.
[0088] Furthermore, the mounting bracket can simultaneously fix multiple electronic components 20 to meet the installation requirements of the signal light for multiple electronic components 20. Specifically, the first fixing plate 310 is provided with multiple first notches 311, which are spaced apart along the circumference of the first fixing plate 310. The second fixing plate 320 is provided with multiple second notches 321 along its circumference, which are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the first notches 311. Each pair of first notches 311 and second notches 321 is used to fix one electronic component 20. Correspondingly, the positioning member 200 is provided with positioning holes 210 that correspond one-to-one with the first notches 311.
[0089] In this embodiment, the first column 110 is located in the middle of the positioning member 200 and the first fixing plate 310, and the second column 120 is located in the middle of the second fixing plate 320. This arrangement results in a compact structure and a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
[0090] Optionally, see [link to relevant documentation] Figure 1A single-color signal light is generally equipped with two electronic components 20. Therefore, for a one-way signal light, the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320 can be rectangular. The first fixing plate 310 is provided with two first notches 311, which are located at both ends of the length direction of the first fixing plate 310. Correspondingly, the second fixing plate 320 is provided with two second notches 321, which are located at both ends of the length direction of the second fixing plate 320.
[0091] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a dual-color traffic light typically has three electronic components 20. Therefore, for a dual-color traffic light, the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320 can be triangular, with the three sides of the triangle being arc-shaped edges protruding towards the center. The first fixing plate 310 has a first notch 311 at each of its three corners, and the second fixing plate 320 has a second notch 321 at each of its three corners.
[0092] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a three-color traffic light typically has four electronic components 20. Therefore, for a three-color traffic light, the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320 can be quadrilaterals, with the four sides of the quadrilateral being arc-shaped edges protruding towards the center. The first fixing plate 310 has a first notch 311 at each of its four corners, and the second fixing plate 320 has a second notch 321 at each of its four corners.
[0093] Example 2
[0094] This embodiment provides a mounting bracket, which is largely the same in structure as Embodiment 1, with improvements only. Therefore, only the differences between the two are described here; structures identical to those in Embodiment 1 will not be repeated. In this embodiment, the same or corresponding technical features as in Embodiment 1 are referred to by the same reference numerals.
[0095] Specifically, such as Figures 9-11 As shown, in this embodiment, the support body 100 is a connecting column 101. One end of the connecting column 101 is provided with a positioning element 200 and a first fixing plate 310, and the other end of the connecting column 101 is provided with an external thread 1011. The second fixing plate 320 is provided with a threaded hole 322, and the second fixing plate 320 is connected to the part of the connecting column 101 with the external thread 1011 through the threaded hole 322. With this configuration, when it is necessary to adjust the distance between the second fixing plate 320 and the first fixing plate 310, it is only necessary to rotate the second fixing plate 320. The structure is simple and the position of the second fixing plate 320 is easy to adjust. Furthermore, the connection between the connecting column 101 and the second fixing plate 320 is achieved through a threaded connection, which provides better reliability.
[0096] Further, see also Figure 10 Multiple position indicator slots 1012 are provided at the external thread 1011 on the connecting post 101, and the multiple position indicator slots 1012 are spaced apart along the axial direction of the connecting post 101. By providing the position indicator slots 1012, the position of the second fixing plate 320 can be indicated to guide the rotation of the second fixing plate 320. That is, when the second fixing plate 320 is located at different position indicator slots 1012, the specifications of the electronic components 20 that are fixed to the first fixing plate 310 are different.
[0097] In this embodiment, the connecting post 101 is located in the middle of the positioning member 200 and the first fixing plate 310, and the threaded hole 322 is located in the middle of the second fixing plate 320. This arrangement results in a compact structure and a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
[0098] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the mounting bracket can also simultaneously fix multiple electronic components 20 to meet the installation requirements of the signal light for multiple electronic components 20. Specifically, the first fixing plate 310 is provided with multiple first notches 311, which are spaced apart circumferentially along the first fixing plate 310. The second fixing plate 320 is provided with multiple second notches 321, which are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the first notches 311. Each pair of first notches 311 and second notches 321 is used to fix one electronic component 20. Correspondingly, the positioning member 200 is provided with positioning holes 210 that correspond one-to-one with the first notches 311.
[0099] Optionally, see [link to relevant documentation] Figure 9 and Figure 10 A single-color signal light is generally equipped with two electronic components 20. Therefore, for a one-way signal light, the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320 can be rectangular. The first fixing plate 310 is provided with two first notches 311, which are located at both ends of the length direction of the first fixing plate 310. Correspondingly, the second fixing plate 320 is provided with two second notches 321, which are located at both ends of the length direction of the second fixing plate 320.
[0100] like Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, a dual-color traffic light typically has three electronic components 20. Therefore, for a dual-color traffic light, the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320 can be triangular, with the three sides of the triangle being arc-shaped edges protruding towards the center. The first fixing plate 310 has a first notch 311 at each of its three corners, and the second fixing plate 320 has a second notch 321 at each of its three corners.
[0101] like Figure 14 and Figure 15As shown, a three-color traffic light typically has four electronic components 20. Therefore, for a three-color traffic light, the first fixing plate 310 and the second fixing plate 320 can be quadrilaterals, with the four sides of the quadrilateral being arc-shaped edges protruding towards the center. The first fixing plate 310 has a first notch 311 at each of its four corners, and the second fixing plate 320 has a second notch 321 at each of its four corners.
