[0037] Example 1
[0038] See Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the welding positioning fixture provided in this application is used to position the PCB and PCMCIA connector to be welded. When the irregularly shaped PCMCIA connector is welded to the PCB, the welding positioning fixture can be used to fix the two and make them in a relatively stable and close fit, which can ensure that the PCMCIA connector and the PCB being welded are firmly attached during welding.
[0039] Specifically, the welding positioning fixture includes a fixture base 1. The fixture base 1 is the main body of the fixture and is machined entirely from aluminum alloy, so it will not be damaged by the welding torch. When welding personnel are performing manual welding or reworking PCMCIA equipment, setting up the fixture base 1 to fix the circuit board 3 and connector 7 can reduce the welding difficulty and improve the yield of manual welding.
[0040] like Figure 3 and 4As shown, the fixture base 1 has a positioning groove to position the circuit board 3 and the connector 7, ensuring that the circuit board 3 and the connector 7 do not move during soldering, thereby improving the soldering strength. To prevent the irregularly shaped connector 7 from causing its pins to not lie flat on the circuit board 3, the fixture base 1 has a first clearance cavity 8, which is opposite to the protrusion of the connector 7 to accommodate the protrusion. For example, for the PCMCIA connector shown in the figure, the bottom of the PCMCIA connector has a raised edge. Correspondingly, a clearance groove is provided at the bottom of the positioning groove. While ensuring reliable positioning of the connector 7, it allows the connector 7 and the circuit board 3 to fit flat, thereby improving the soldering quality. Of course, for connectors 7 with protrusions located in other positions, the position of the first clearance cavity 8 can be set accordingly.
[0041] The welding positioning fixture provided in this application can position the connector 7 and the circuit board 3. When the connector 7 is welded to the circuit board 3, the connector 7 and the circuit board 3 can be placed stably and their relative positions can be fixed, which can greatly improve the stability during welding, thereby improving the welding yield and the success rate of rework.
[0042] In an optional embodiment, a first support portion is provided in the positioning groove; the first support portion includes a plurality of supporting edges 9 located at the bottom of the positioning groove, the plurality of supporting edges 9 being spaced apart to support the edge of the circuit board 3, and a second clearance cavity 10 is formed between the plurality of supporting edges 9 to accommodate the devices on the circuit board 3.
[0043] In this embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the words "PCMCIA-68 pin" are engraved on the edge of the positioning groove of the fixture base 1 to indicate the purpose of the fixture. For other models and specifications of connectors 7, different markings can be used. The positioning groove consists of two parts. One part is used to position the circuit board 3, and the sidewalls of this part of the positioning groove are adapted to the shape and size of the circuit board 3. A large area is hollowed out at the bottom of this part of the positioning groove, with four first support portions formed by the support edges 9 only at the four corners of the circuit board 3, thus avoiding obstruction of components on the back of the circuit board 3.
[0044] In an optional embodiment, the welding positioning fixture further includes a pressure-applying component. The connector 7 is mounted on the first edge of the circuit board 3. On the second edge of the circuit board 3 away from the connector 7, the positioning groove has an opening. The pressure-applying component is mounted at the opening and continuously applies force toward the side wall of the circuit board 3 to fix the circuit board 3 in the area enclosed by the fixture base 1 and the pressure-applying component, thereby preventing the circuit board 3 from moving.
[0045] Specifically, the pressure-applying components include a first pressure plate 4 and a torsion spring. The first pressure plate 4 is a wrench-shaped part made of stainless steel. The first pressure plate 4 is rotatably mounted on the fixture base 1 by a first screw 5, and the first pressure plate 4 is opposite to the side wall of the circuit board 3. The torsion spring is installed between the first pressure plate 4 and the fixture base 1 so that the first pressure plate 4 applies pressure to the side wall of the circuit board 3. In use, before placing the circuit board 3 into the positioning slot, the first pressure plate 4 should be pulled away from the circuit board 3. After placing the circuit board 3 into the positioning slot, the first pressure plate 4 should be released, and the circuit board 3 is fixed to the fixture base 1 by the elastic force of the torsion spring.
[0046] In an optional embodiment, the positioning groove is provided with two opposing first loading / unloading notches 11, which are located at the third and fourth edges of the circuit board 3, respectively, to expose the sidewalls of the circuit board 3 at corresponding positions. Figure 4 As shown, two first loading / unloading notches 11 are provided in the middle of the tooling base 1, allowing the user to pick up or place the circuit board 3 in the direction indicated by the arrow through the first loading / unloading notches 11. The two first loading / unloading notches 11 are located on the remaining side walls except for the positioning grooves where the connector 7 and the pressure-applying component are located, and do not affect the positioning function of the device for the connector 7 and the circuit board 3.
[0047] Example 2
[0048] The welding positioning fixture in this second embodiment is an improvement on the above embodiments. The technical content disclosed in the above embodiments will not be described again, and the content disclosed in the above embodiments also belongs to the content disclosed in this second embodiment.
[0049] See Figure 4 As shown, in an optional embodiment, a second support is provided within the positioning groove. The second support includes a support platform 12 located at the bottom of the positioning groove, which is opposite to the connector 7 to support the connector 7. The support platform 12 also has a first clearance cavity 8.
[0050] In this embodiment, another part of the positioning groove is used to position the connector 7, and the sidewall of the positioning groove in this part is adapted to the shape and size of the connector 7. In order to stably support the bottom of the connector 7, this part of the positioning groove is provided with a relatively complete support platform 12. The support platform 12 is provided with a first relief cavity 8 only at the position opposite to the protrusion to accommodate the protrusion, so that the connector 7 can be firmly attached to the circuit board 3.
[0051] In an optional embodiment, the welding positioning fixture further includes a second pressure plate 2. The second pressure plate 2 is detachably installed in the slot of the positioning groove, and the second pressure plate 2 is opposite to the connector 7 to apply pressure to the connector 7. Specifically, the second pressure plate 2 is a horizontal strip aluminum alloy sheet, with positioning holes at both ends, and threaded holes 16 are correspondingly provided on the fixture base 1. In use, the second screw 6 is passed through the positioning hole and screwed into the threaded hole 16 to press the second pressure plate 2 onto the connector 7, thereby fixing the connector 7 onto the fixture base 1.
[0052] In an optional embodiment, the positioning groove is provided with a second loading / unloading notch 13 to expose the side of the connector 7 away from the circuit board 3; the second loading / unloading notch 13 is provided at a reference position to mark the middle position of the connector 7.
[0053] In this embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the second loading / unloading notch 13 is a circular hole opened in the middle of the side wall of the positioning groove. When placing the connector 7 into the positioning groove, it is necessary to adjust the position of the connector 7. The user can adjust the horizontal direction of the connector 7 through this circular hole. Moreover, since the second loading / unloading notch 13 is located in the middle of the side wall of the positioning groove, the center of the connector 7 can also be positioned when placing the connector 7, so that the assembly position of the connector 7 and the circuit board 3 is more accurate.
[0054] In an optional embodiment, a third clearance cavity 14 is provided on the side of the positioning groove adjacent to the connector 7, and the third clearance cavity 14 is opposite to the corner of the side of the connector 7 away from the circuit board 3; a fourth clearance cavity 15 is provided on the side wall of the positioning groove corresponding to the circuit board 3, and the fourth clearance cavity 15 is opposite to the protruding device on the side of the circuit board 3.
[0055] In this embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the third clearance cavity 14 is a clearance groove opened in the positioning groove, opposite to the right-angled side of the connector 7, to avoid the right-angled side of the connector 7, thereby avoiding the problem of difficulty in inserting the connector 7 into the positioning groove due to processing errors. In addition, other devices are provided on the side of the circuit board 3 away from the connector 7, and the fourth clearance cavity 15 is a clearance groove opened in the positioning groove corresponding to the device, in order to avoid interference with the device.
