AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The closed design of traditional optocoupler tubes makes the inspection of optocoupler product information cumbersome and affects work efficiency.

Method used

The design incorporates a cutout groove on the top of the tube body for observing the markings on the top surface of the optocoupler. A clearance groove is provided at the bottom of the cross-section to accommodate the pins. A limiting component secures the optocoupler to prevent wobbling, and a boss provides elastic cushioning.

🎯Benefits of technology

It enables rapid inspection of optocoupler information, avoids pin deformation and package damage, improves transportation stability and structural reliability, and reduces manufacturing costs.

Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of optocoupler tube technology, and more particularly to an optocoupler tube with a hollowed-out groove. By opening a hollowed-out groove on the top of the tube body, operators can directly observe the laser markings containing information such as model and batch number on the top surface of the optocoupler through the groove. Combined with the limiting component to stably fix the optocoupler, it achieves rapid visual inspection of the markings while ensuring that the optocoupler does not shake. This avoids the risk of damage caused by repeated handling, such as pin bending or the package hitting the tube wall. The bottom clearance groove separately accommodates the pins on both sides of the optocoupler, preventing the pins from being deformed by pressure. The Z-shaped sidewall design of the boss provides elastic buffering capacity, which not only adapts to the dimensional tolerances of the optocoupler package, but also alleviates external squeezing and impact during transportation, preventing rigid contact damage to the internal chip of the optocoupler. This solves the technical problem that currently, when inspecting the markings containing product information on the optocoupler located inside the optocoupler tube, it is necessary to remove the optocoupler from the tube, which is quite cumbersome.
