[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heating structure technology, and in particular to a uniform heating structure for a reflow oven. Background Technology

[0002] Reflow soldering is a commonly used soldering process in SMT (Surface Mount Technology). Its principle is to remelt the pre-applied solder paste onto the printed circuit board pads, achieving mechanical and electrical connections between the surface mount components' leads and the pads. During reflow soldering, the uniformity of heating within the oven chamber has a crucial impact on the soldering quality.

[0003] Existing reflow oven heating structures have some shortcomings. For example, it is difficult to flexibly adjust the spacing between the heating components and the circuit board, as well as the heating intensity and range, for circuit boards of different sizes. This makes it impossible to achieve uniform heating of circuit boards of various sizes, which can easily lead to poor soldering, such as cold solder joints and short circuits. Therefore, we propose a uniform heating structure for reflow ovens to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0025] This application discloses a uniform heating structure for a reflow oven.

[0026] Reference Figure 1-4 A uniform heating structure for a reflow oven includes an oven shell 101. An insulation plate 102 is installed on the inner wall of the oven shell 101. Multiple guide holes 201 are opened at the top of the oven shell 101. Guide rods 202 are slidably installed in the guide holes 201. A common adjusting plate 203 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the multiple guide rods 202. A heating assembly is provided at the bottom of the adjusting plate 203. The heating assembly includes a vertical rod 401, a main heater 402, a mounting plate 405, and an auxiliary heater 406. The vertical rod 401 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the adjusting plate 203. A common main heater 402 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the multiple vertical rods 401. Mounting plates 405 are provided on both sides of the main heater 402. A rotating mechanism is provided between the mounting plate 405 and the vertical rod 401. The auxiliary heater 406 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting plate 405.

[0027] In this embodiment, the rotating mechanism includes a rotating shaft 403 and a rotating seat 404. The rotating shaft 403 is rotatably mounted between two corresponding vertical rods 401, and the rotating seat 404 is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 403. The rotating seat 404 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 405. This design of the rotating mechanism provides a flexible base for the mounting plate 405 and the auxiliary heater 406 to rotate. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the auxiliary heater 406 to adapt to the heating requirements of different circuit boards, the mounting plate 405 can easily rotate around the rotating shaft 403.

[0028] In this embodiment, a threaded hole 301 is provided on the top inner wall of the furnace shell 101. An adjusting screw 302 is installed in the threaded hole 301, and the bottom end of the adjusting screw 302 is rotatably mounted on the adjusting plate 203. A knob 303 is fixedly installed on the top end of the adjusting screw 302. A rotating groove is provided on the top of the adjusting plate 203, and an annular groove is provided on the inner wall of the rotating groove. An annular seat is fixedly installed on the adjusting screw 302, and the annular seat is rotatably connected to the annular groove. The cooperation between the rotating groove, the annular groove, and the annular seat ensures the stability and smoothness of the adjusting screw 302 during rotation.

[0029] In this embodiment, the bottom of the adjusting plate 203 has two movable slots 501. A movable seat 503 is slidably installed in the movable slots 501. A hinge rod 504 is hinged to the bottom of the movable seat 503, and the bottom end of the hinge rod 504 is hinged to the corresponding mounting plate 405. The movable slots 501 and the movable seat 503 provide the basic structure for the mechanical transmission of the auxiliary heater 406 angle adjustment. When the movable seat 503 moves in the movable slots 501, the hinge rod 504 can stably drive the mounting plate 405 to rotate, thereby adjusting the angle of the auxiliary heater 406.

[0030] In this embodiment, a threaded rod 502 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the two moving slots 501 on opposite sides. The moving seat 503 is threaded onto the threaded rod 502. The threaded rod 502 has two external threads with opposite directions of rotation. The moving seat 503 has an internal threaded hole 301, and the external threads mesh with the internal threaded hole 301. The engagement between the external threads with opposite directions of rotation on the threaded rod 502 and the internal threaded hole 301 of the moving seat 503 allows the two moving seats 503 to move synchronously in opposite directions or towards each other when the threaded rod 502 rotates.

[0031] In this embodiment, a rectangular hole 601 is provided at the top of the adjusting plate 203, and a threaded rod 502 passes through the rectangular hole 601. A rotating gear 602 is fixedly sleeved on the threaded rod 502. A connecting plate 603 is fixedly installed at the top of the furnace shell 101, and a rack 604 is fixedly installed on the front side of the connecting plate 603. The rotating gear 602 meshes with the rack 604. When the adjusting plate 203 moves up and down, the rotating gear 602 moves with the adjusting plate 203 and meshes with the rack 604, thereby achieving rotation and driving the threaded rod 502 to rotate. This ingenious structural design transforms the up and down movement of the adjusting plate 203 into the rotation of the threaded rod 502, realizing the linkage between the angle adjustment of the auxiliary heater 406 and the overall height adjustment of the heating assembly.

[0032] In this invention, when the circuit board is transported to the bottom of the heating assembly, the main heater 402 and the auxiliary heater 406 can heat the circuit board. When the circuit board is of different sizes, by rotating the handwheel and adjusting screw 302, under the action of the threaded hole 301, the adjusting screw 302 can rotate and move at the same time. The adjusting screw 302 can move the adjusting plate 203. The adjusting plate 203 is moved by the vertical rod 401 to the main heater 402 and the auxiliary heater 406, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the distance between the main heater 402, the auxiliary heater 406 and the circuit board. When the adjusting plate 203 moves downward, the rotating gear 602, which follows the adjusting plate 203 downward, rotates under the action of the rack 604. The rotating gear 602 drives the threaded rod 502 to rotate, and the threaded rod 502 drives the two moving seats 503 to move away from each other. The moving seats 503 drive the mounting plate 405 and the auxiliary heater 406 to rotate closer to the main heater 402 through the hinge rod 504, so as to achieve the purpose of centralized heating. By moving the main heater 402 and the auxiliary heater 406 and adjusting the angle of the auxiliary heater 406, circuit boards of different sizes can be heated as needed.

[0033] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
