Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of communication equipment technology, and more specifically, it relates to a novel optical bonding anti-loosening device. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of optical communication, bonding the fiber optic lens to the fiber optic jumper on a PCBA board is a common process. However, existing optical bonding processes have many problems;
[0003] 1. When bonding products using existing technical solutions, the electronic components on the product are placed on the workbench and come into contact with the table, making them susceptible to damage from bumps and knocks.
[0004] 2. During product baking after adhesive dispensing, gaps may occur between the fiber optic lens and jumper cable bonding components due to adhesive flow, and misalignment may occur between the bonding components due to adhesive expansion. Currently, there is no device to limit the position of the two components during baking after the fiber optic lens and jumper cable are bonded, leading to positional deviations during product baking and affecting subsequent product use. For example, a bonding device disclosed in patent application number 202123268946.0 cannot restrict or fix the fiber optic lens and jumper cable at the bonding station during the bonding process, resulting in gaps between the bonding stations due to adhesive flow during subsequent baking of the optical components, affecting subsequent product use.

[0006] To achieve these objectives and other advantages according to the present invention, a novel optical bonding anti-loosening device is provided, comprising: a base, a worktable disposed on the base for placing a PCBA board, and further comprising: an elbow clamping mechanism disposed on one side of the worktable, and a limiting mechanism for limiting the bonding area on the PCBA board disposed on the other side of the worktable, the limiting mechanism comprising: a fixed platform, an L-shaped limiting block disposed on the side wall of the fixed platform, and a pair of guide rails disposed between the fixed platform and the worktable, the L-shaped limiting block being slidably disposed on the guide rails, and a spring being sleeved on the guide rail between the L-shaped limiting block and the fixed platform;
[0007] The connecting rod of the elbow clamp mechanism passes through the through hole in the middle of the worktable and abuts against the surface of the L-shaped limiting block. The lower surface of the extension of the L-shaped limiting block has a predetermined gap with the upper surface of the worktable, and the height of the gap is adapted to the distance of the adhesive joint protruding from the worktable.
[0008] Preferably, it further includes: an optical fiber clamping mechanism for limiting the optical fiber on the fixed platform, the optical fiber clamping mechanism including: a metal cover plate hinged to one side of the fixed platform, and a magnetic suction part that cooperates with the metal cover plate on the upper surface of the other side of the fixed platform;

[0026] like Figure 1 A novel optical bonding anti-loosening device is shown, comprising: a base 1, a worktable 2 disposed on the base 1 for placing a PCBA board 3, and further comprising: an elbow clamping mechanism 6 disposed on one side of the worktable 2, and a limiting mechanism 7 disposed on the other side of the worktable 2 for limiting the bonding area on the PCBA board 3. The limiting mechanism 7 comprises: a fixed platform 71, an L-shaped limiting block 72 disposed on the side wall of the fixed platform 71, and a pair of guide rails 73 disposed between the fixed platform 71 and the worktable 2. The L-shaped limiting block 72 is slidably disposed on the guide rail 73, and a spring 74 is sleeved on the guide rail 73 between the L-shaped limiting block 72 and the fixed platform 71.
[0027] The connecting rod 63 of the elbow clamp mechanism 6 passes through the through hole in the middle of the workbench 2 and abuts against the surface of the L-shaped limiting block 72. The lower surface of the extension of the L-shaped limiting block 72 has a predetermined gap with the upper surface of the workbench 2. The height of the gap is adapted to the distance of the adhesive part protruding from the workbench 2.
[0028] Working principle:
[0029] At the start of operation, first push up the elbow clamp mechanism 6. The elbow clamp mechanism 6 drives the connecting rod 63, which moves and pushes the L-shaped limiting block 72. The L-shaped limiting block 72 compresses the spring 74, and the extension of the L-shaped limiting block 72 moves away from the worktable 2. At this time, place the PCBA board 3 on the worktable 2 (the protruding part of the bonding area of the PCBA board 3 is the fiber optic end lens 4, and the protrusion height of the fiber optic end lens 4 is adapted to the predetermined gap between the lower surface of the extension of the L-shaped limiting block 72 and the upper surface of the worktable 2). After applying adhesive to bond the fiber optic end lens 4 on the PCBA board 3 to the jumper wire 5 of the external fiber optic cable, push down the elbow clamp mechanism 6, and the connecting rod 63 moves away from the L-shaped limiting block. 72. Spring 74 pushes L-shaped limiting block 72 in the opposite direction. The extension of L-shaped limiting block 72 moves to the top of the bonding station of PCBA board 3 and presses the fiber optic lens 4 and jumper 5 at the bonding station (because the lower surface of the extension of L-shaped limiting block 72 has a predetermined gap with the upper surface of worktable 2 and is adapted to the height of fiber optic lens 4, when the extension of L-shaped limiting block 72 moves to the upper surface of fiber optic lens 4, the position of the bonded fiber optic lens 4 and jumper 5 can be limited). Finally, the glue is baked and shaped. Through the limitation of the extension of L-shaped limiting block 72, the parts will not be misaligned due to glue expansion during the baking process.
[0030] The L-shaped limiting block 72 is slidably mounted on the guide rail 73 via a linear bearing 75.
[0031] The above technical solution also includes: an optical fiber clamping mechanism 8 set on the fixing platform 71 to limit the position of the optical fiber 9. The optical fiber clamping mechanism 8 includes: a metal cover plate 81 hinged to one side of the fixing platform 71, and a magnetic suction part 82 that cooperates with the metal cover plate 81 on the upper surface of the other side of the fixing platform 71; wherein, the surface of the fixing platform 71 is provided with a groove 83 that matches the shape of the external optical fiber connector 91. With this technical solution, the groove 83 on the surface of the fixing platform 71 matches the shape of the optical fiber connector 91, which can accurately limit the position of the optical fiber 9, prevent it from shifting laterally or longitudinally during the bonding process, and ensure the alignment accuracy of the optical fiber 9 with the optical components (such as optical modules and connectors) on the PCBA board. The metal cover plate 81 is tightly attached to the fixing platform 71 through the magnetic suction part 82, generating uniform pressure, avoiding slight shaking of the optical fiber 9 caused by external force, improving bonding stability, and the magnetic suction method facilitates the quick opening and closing of the metal cover plate 81.
[0032] In the above technical solution, the upper surface of the extension of the L-shaped limiting block 72 is provided with a cable placement groove 721 for accommodating the jumper cable 5 of the external optical fiber 9. By adopting this technical solution, during the bonding process, the jumper cable 5 is placed within the cable placement groove 721, avoiding the possibility of manual contact with the jumper cable 5 during bonding and improving the positional accuracy of the bonding.
[0033] In the above technical solution, the elbow clamping mechanism 6 includes: a base 61 disposed on the base 1, a handle 62 hinged to one side of the base 61, and an arc-shaped connecting piece 64 disposed between the connecting rod 63 and the handle 62.
[0034] The two ends of the arc-shaped connector 64 are hinged to the connecting rod 63 and the handle 62, respectively. Using this technical solution, by manually rotating the handle 62, which is hinged to the arc-shaped connector 64, the curved contour of the arc-shaped connector 64 guides the connecting rod 63 to perform horizontal reciprocating motion, converting the rotation of the handle 62 into linear motion of the connecting rod 63. This facilitates the compression or reset of the spring 74 of the clamping mechanism, thereby limiting the bonding portion of the PCBA board 3 by the L-shaped limiting block 72.
[0035] In the above technical solution, the surface of the workbench 2 is provided with a mounting groove 21 for placing the PCBA board 3. A limiting plate 22 that cooperates with the PCBA board 3 is provided in the mounting groove 21 near one end of the elbow clamping mechanism 6. The limiting plate 22 is detachably connected to the mounting position; wherein, one end of the limiting plate 22 is configured as an L-shaped limiting part 23 that is adapted to the shape of the PCBA board 3. In this technical solution, the mounting groove 21 and the L-shaped limiting part 23 form a constraint. After the PCBA board 3 is embedded in the mounting groove 21, its side is held in place by the L-shaped limiting part 23, its bottom is supported by the bottom of the groove, and its top is fixed by a clamping mechanism to prevent the board from shifting during the dispensing process. At the same time, the limiting plate 22 and the mounting position are detachably connected by a bolt assembly. The limiting plate 22 has a countersunk waist-shaped hole. Through the countersunk waist-shaped hole, the limiting plate 22 can move within a small range in the mounting groove 21. The mounting groove 21 can accommodate PCBA boards 3 of different lengths. Meanwhile, the extended end of the L-shaped limiting part 23 is configured with an inclined structure, which can press the PCBA board 3. After the baking of the PCBA board 3 is completed, the other end of the PCBA board 3 can be lifted. The inclined structure of the extended end of the L-shaped limiting part 23 will not interfere with the lifting of the PCBA board 3.

They can be applied to various fields suitable for this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other modifications can be easily made.
