Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of mounting fixtures for electronic products, and more particularly to a fixture for mounting multiple IGBT transistors and rectifier diodes. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of new energy technologies, IGBTs are continuously evolving towards higher voltage, higher power, and higher integration. Heat dissipation has become a major factor affecting the efficiency and safety of IGBTs, typically requiring a heat dissipation system composed of heat sinks, ceramic substrates, and other components. However, in practical applications, ceramic substrates often need to be used in conjunction with multiple IGBTs and rectifier diodes, which complicates IGBT installation. Manual installation can easily lead to misalignment of the IGBT or rectifier diode leads with the solder notches on the PCB. Therefore, to ensure installation accuracy, specialized positioning fixtures must be used to complete the installation process.

[0003] However, there are currently a variety of tooling options for positioning or fixing IGBTs and rectifier diodes. Most of these options use snap-fit ​​or multiple tooling combinations, which leads to complex tooling structures, significantly increased manufacturing costs, and inconvenient operation. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this application is to provide a fixture for mounting multiple IGBT transistors and rectifier diodes, aiming to solve the problems of existing fixtures being complex in structure, high in manufacturing cost, and inconvenient in operation.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides a fixture for mounting multiple IGBT transistors and rectifier diodes onto a heat sink. The fixture includes a first limiting plate and a second limiting plate. The first limiting plate has multiple first adapter slots formed from top to bottom on its top surface. A portion of these first adapter slots have a first two-pin mating slot at the bottom, while the remaining slots have a first three-pin mating slot at the bottom. A first heat sink adapter slot is also formed on one side of the top surface of the first limiting plate. The second limiting plate has multiple second adapter slots formed from top to bottom on its top surface. A portion of these second adapter slots have a second two-pin mating slot at the bottom, while the remaining slots have a second three-pin mating slot at the bottom. A second heat sink adapter slot is also formed on one side of the top surface of the second limiting plate. The first and second limiting plates are fitted together, and the first and second heat sink adapter slots are combined to form a single heat sink adapter slot.

[0006] Optionally, each of the first adapter slots and each of the second adapter slots are staggered.

[0007] Optionally, the first two-pin mating slot and the first three-pin mating slot on the first limiting plate are arranged in pairs; the second two-pin mating slot and the second three-pin mating slot on the second limiting plate are arranged in pairs.

[0008] Optionally, the first limiting plate and the second limiting plate are detachably connected.

[0009] Optionally, both the first limiting plate and the second limiting plate are made of Q235 material.

[0010] Optionally, the tooling further includes a base, wherein the base is disposed at the bottom of the first limiting plate and the second limiting plate.

[0011] Optionally, the base includes: an upright plate and a horizontal plate, wherein the upright plate is connected to the outside of the first limiting plate or the outside of the second limiting plate; the horizontal plate is connected to one end of the upright plate and is parallel to the horizontal plane.

[0012] Optionally, the upright plate is connected to the first limiting plate or the second limiting plate by a pin.

[0013] Optionally, the surfaces of the first limiting plate and the second limiting plate are chrome plated.

[0014] This application provides a fixture for mounting multiple IGBT transistors and rectifier diodes. When mounting the IGBT transistors and rectifier diodes on one side of a heat sink, the heat sink is first placed in a heat sink adapter slot. Then, the IGBT transistor is positioned within a first adapter slot with a first three-pin mating slot, and the rectifier diode is positioned within a first adapter slot with a first two-pin mating slot. The IGBT transistor and rectifier diode are then fixed to one side of the heat sink. Similarly, when mounting the IGBT transistors and rectifier diodes on the other side of the heat sink, the IGBT transistor is positioned within a second adapter slot with a second three-pin mating slot, and the rectifier diode is positioned within a second adapter slot with a second two-pin mating slot. The IGBT transistor and rectifier diode are then fixed to the other side of the heat sink. This completes the mounting of the IGBT transistors and rectifier diodes. The assembled structure can then be removed from the fixture and soldered onto a PCB board. The entire mounting process is simple, and the fixture itself consists of a first limiting plate and a second limiting plate, resulting in a simple structure and low manufacturing cost.

[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This application provides a fixture for mounting multiple IGBT transistors and rectifier diodes, used to mount IGBT transistor 1 and rectifier diode 2 onto a heat sink 3. The fixture may include a first limiting plate 4 and a second limiting plate 5. The first limiting plate 4 has multiple first adapter slots 401 formed from top to bottom on its top. A portion of the first adapter slots 401 have a first two-pin mating slot 402 formed downwards at the bottom, while the remaining first adapter slots 401 have a first three-pin mating slot 403 formed downwards at the bottom. A first heat sink adapter slot 404 is also provided on one side of the top of the position plate 4; a plurality of second adapter slots 501 are provided on the top of the second limiting plate 5 from top to bottom, a portion of the second adapter slots 501 have a second two-pin mating slot 502 with the bottom of the slot facing downward, and the bottom of the remaining second adapter slots 501 have a second three-pin mating slot 503 with the bottom of the slot facing downward. A second heat sink adapter slot 504 is also provided on one side of the top of the second limiting plate 5; wherein, the first limiting plate 4 and the second limiting plate 5 are attached together, and the first heat sink adapter slot 404 and the second heat sink adapter slot 504 are combined to form a heat sink adapter slot 6.

[0025] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to install IGBT 1 and rectifier diode 2 on one side of heat sink 3, firstly, heat sink 3 is placed in heat sink adapter slot 6. Then, IGBT 1 is confined in the first adapter slot 401 with a first three-pin mating slot 403, and rectifier diode 2 is confined in the first adapter slot 401 with a first two-pin mating slot 402. IGBT 1 and rectifier diode 2 are then fixed to one side of heat sink 3. Similarly, when installing IGBT 1 and rectifier diode 2 on the other side of heat sink 3, it is only necessary to confine IGBT 1 in the second adapter slot 501 with a second three-pin mating slot 503, and rectifier diode 2 in the second adapter slot 501 with a second two-pin mating slot 502. IGBT 1 and rectifier diode 2 are then fixed to the other side of heat sink 3. At this point, the installation of IGBT 1 and rectifier diode 2 is complete. The assembled structure can be removed from the fixture and soldered onto the PCB board. The entire installation process is simple to operate, and the main body of the installation fixture consists of the first limiting plate 4 and the second limiting plate 5. The structure is simple and the manufacturing cost is low.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 Each first adapter slot 401 and each second adapter slot 501 are staggered.

[0027] The first adapter slot 401 and the second adapter slot 501 are staggered, so that the IGBT tubes 1 or rectifier diodes 2 on both sides of the heat sink 3 are also staggered, which makes it easier to fix the IGBT tubes 1 or rectifier diodes 2 on both sides of the heat sink 3 onto the heat sink 3.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 The first dual-pin mating groove 402 and the first triple-pin mating groove 403 on the first limiting plate 4 are arranged in pairs; the second dual-pin mating groove 502 and the second triple-pin mating groove 503 on the second limiting plate 5 are arranged in pairs.

[0029] Specifically, please refer to Figure 3 Rectifier diodes 2 are installed in paired first two-pin mating slots 402 on the first limiting plate 4, and the two rectifier diodes 2 are fixed to one side of the heat sink 3 by a clamping plate. IGBT transistors 1 are installed in paired first three-pin mating slots 403 on the first limiting plate 4, and the two IGBT transistors 1 are also fixed to one side of the heat sink 3 by a clamping plate. Rectifier diodes 2 are installed in paired second two-pin mating slots 502 on the second limiting plate 5, and the two rectifier diodes 2 are fixed to the other side of the heat sink 3 by a clamping plate. IGBT transistors 1 are also installed in paired second three-pin mating slots 503 on the second limiting plate 5, and the two IGBT transistors 1 are also fixed to the other side of the heat sink 3 by a clamping plate.

[0030] It should be noted that the pressure plate and the heat sink 3 are connected by bolts.

[0031] Furthermore, the first limiting plate 4 and the second limiting plate 5 are detachably connected.

[0032] The first limiting plate 4 and the second limiting plate 5 can be connected together by bolts. The connection structure is simple, easy to disassemble and assemble, and beneficial to the later maintenance of the tooling.

[0033] Furthermore, both the first limiting plate 4 and the second limiting plate 5 are made of Q235 material.

[0034] In this embodiment, by setting both the first limiting plate 4 and the second limiting plate 5 to Q235 material, the service life of the tooling can be effectively extended.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 The tooling may also include: a base 7, wherein the base 7 is disposed at the bottom of the first limiting plate 4 and the second limiting plate 5.

[0036] Specifically, by setting a base 7 at the bottom of the first limiting plate 4 and the second limiting plate 5, the stability of the tooling during use is ensured.

[0037] Please see Figure 3 The base 7 may include a vertical plate 701 and a horizontal plate 702, wherein the vertical plate 701 is connected to the outside of the first limiting plate 4 or the outside of the second limiting plate 5; the horizontal plate 702 is connected to one end of the vertical plate 701 and is parallel to the horizontal plane.

[0038] The base 7 is designed with an "L" shape, which not only makes it easier to manufacture but also provides better stability.

[0039] Furthermore, the upright plate 701 is connected to the first limiting plate 4 or the second limiting plate 5 by a pin.

[0040] Of course, the upright plate 701 can also be connected to the first limiting plate 4 or the second limiting plate 5 by bolts, as long as the base 7 can be securely fixed on the tooling.

[0041] Optionally, the surfaces of the first limiting plate 4 and the second limiting plate 5 are chrome plated.

[0042] In this embodiment, the surfaces of the first limiting plate 4 and the second limiting plate 5 are chrome-plated to prevent wear and tear on the tooling during long-term use and effectively extend the service life of the tooling.

[0043] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and do not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this application's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this application.
