Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of filters, and more particularly to a notch filter. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of society and economy, a notch filter is a resonant circuit, or an automatic switching sensor. Its principle is that it is an LC oscillator. When its coil is close to another resonant circuit and the oscillation frequency is close to the resonant frequency of the circuit being measured, the oscillation energy is absorbed and the oscillation weakens. By changing the oscillation frequency of the notch filter until the oscillation weakens to the lowest point, the oscillation frequency is the resonant frequency of the circuit being measured. In antenna engineering, it can automatically extend or shorten the length of the antenna according to the frequency of the signal. In radio receivers, it is a filter specially used to eliminate certain unwanted signals to reduce interference with useful signals. It is used in circuits to filter out signals of unwanted frequencies.
[0003] Existing notch filters are machined in one piece, which results in high material costs, long processing time, and high overall costs. The inner shell sidewalls and bottom are opened with straight holes, and the inductor coil and inner core are fixed to the inner shell by insertion and welding through the straight holes. However, this hole-fixing method results in a small contact area between the inductor coil and inner core and the hole surface. The welding joint is a flat surface, which is prone to solder run-through, causing quality problems such as cold solder joints and poor solder joints. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a notch filter in light of the current state of the technology.

[0006] Preferably, the opening unit includes a first opening on the inner shell sidewall and a second opening on the inner shell bottom, the arc surface unit includes a first arc surface connecting the first opening and the inner shell sidewall through a smooth arc, and the arc surface unit also includes a second arc surface connecting the second opening and the inner shell bottom surface through a smooth arc.
[0007] Preferably, the protrusion unit includes a first protrusion protruding into the inner shell from the first opening, and the protrusion unit also includes a second protrusion protruding into the inner shell from the second opening. The end of the inductor coil passes through the first arc surface, the first opening and the first protrusion in sequence. The outer wall of one end of the inductor coil passing through the first protrusion is tightly fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first protrusion. The portion of the inductor coil arranged in the first arc surface is tightly fixedly connected to the first arc surface.

[0009] Preferably, the first arc surface is a first molten solder bath for the flow of solder to make the inductor coil weld more firmly. The solder flows in from the first molten solder bath and enters the first protrusion through the first opening. The solder fills the space between the inner wall of the first protrusion and the outer wall of the inductor coil. After fixing, the solder fills the first molten solder bath.
[0010] Preferably, the second arc surface is a second molten solder bath for the flow of solder to make the inner core weld more firmly. The solder flows in from the second molten solder bath and enters the second protrusion through the second opening. The solder fills the space between the inner wall of the second protrusion and the outer wall of the inner core. After fixing, the solder fills the second molten solder bath.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: the openings on the side and bottom of the inner shell are all made by non-material removal punching process, so that a raised ring is formed around the opening to form a raised unit, which increases the connection surface of the connected parts. At the same time, an arc-shaped unit is formed on the outside of the opening to form a solder bath, so that the solder will not flow to other positions, ensuring that the solder and the connected parts are well covered, thereby ensuring good welding and making it less likely to have cold solder joints or false solder joints.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model provides a notch filter, including a housing 1 and an inner housing 2 disposed inside the housing 1. An inner core 3 and an inductor coil 4 are fixedly connected to the inner housing 2. An opening unit for fixing the inner core 3 and the inductor coil 4 is provided on the inner housing 2. Specifically, an arc surface unit is formed between the opening unit and the outer wall of the inner housing 2. The opening unit extends into the inner housing 2 to form a protruding unit. The opening unit connects the arc surface unit and the protruding unit.
[0023] The inner shell 2 is made of free-cutting iron material and is formed by stretching. The side walls and bottom surface of the inner shell 2 are punched using a non-material removal process, which makes a raised ring around the opening unit to form a raised unit. This increases the connection surface between the inner core 3 and the inductor coil 4 and the inner wall of the inner shell 2. In addition, the surface of the inner shell 2 is silver-plated, which saves materials and improves processing efficiency.
[0024] The opening unit includes a first opening 5 on the side wall of the inner shell 2 and a second opening 6 on the bottom of the inner shell 2; specifically, the arc surface unit includes a first arc surface 7 that connects the first opening 5 and the side wall of the inner shell 2 through a smooth arc, and the arc surface unit also includes a second arc surface 8 that connects the second opening 6 and the bottom surface of the inner shell 2 through a smooth arc.
[0025] The protruding unit includes a first protrusion 9 protruding into the inner shell 2 from the first opening 5, and the protruding unit also includes a second protrusion 10 protruding into the inner shell 2 from the second opening 6; specifically, the end of the inductor coil 4 passes through the first arc surface 7, the first opening 5 and the first protrusion 9 in sequence, the outer wall of the end of the inductor coil 4 passing through the first protrusion 9 is tightly fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first protrusion 9, and the part of the inductor coil 4 arranged in the first arc surface 7 is tightly fixedly connected to the first arc surface 7.
[0026] The inner core 3 passes through the second protrusion 10, the second opening 6, and the second arc surface 8 in sequence. The outer wall of the inner core 3 passing through the second protrusion 10 is tightly fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second protrusion 10. Specifically, the end of the inner core 3 arranged in the second arc surface 8 is tightly fixedly connected to the second arc surface 8.
[0027] The inner core 3 is made by straightening iron wire and cutting it directly. The surface is silver-plated, which makes the processing simple, efficient, and low in overall cost, and prevents deformation or breakage during the processing.
[0028] The first arc surface 7 is a first solder bath 11 for the flow of solder to make the inductor coil 4 weld more firmly; specifically, the solder flows from the first solder bath 11 and enters the first protrusion 9 through the first opening 5. The solder fills the space between the inner wall of the first protrusion 9 and the outer wall of the inductor coil 4. After fixing, the solder fills the first solder bath 11.
[0029] The second arc surface 8 is a second solder bath 12 for the flow of solder to make the inner core 3 weld more firmly; specifically, the solder flows in from the second solder bath 12 and enters the second protrusion 10 through the second opening 6. The solder fills the space between the inner wall of the second protrusion 10 and the outer wall of the inner core 3. After fixing, the solder fills the second solder bath 12.
[0030] The inner shell 2, inner core 3, and inductor coil 4 are all fixedly connected together by soldering. After inserting the ends of inductor coil 4 and inner core 3 through the first opening 5 and the second opening 6 respectively, the end of inductor coil 4 is arranged in the first protrusion 9, and the end of inner core 3 is arranged in the second protrusion 10. Finally, molten solder is poured in through the first solder bath 11 and the second solder bath 12 respectively, so that the solder flows into the first protrusion 9 through the first opening 5 via the first solder bath 11. The solder fills the space between the outer wall of inductor coil 4 and the inner wall of the first protrusion 9. At the same time, the solder on the outside fills the first solder bath 11. After the solder solidifies, the solder in the first solder bath 11 is flush with the outer wall of the inner shell 2. The solder in the first protrusion 9 fixes the end of inductor coil 4 in the first protrusion 9, making the component weld more secure and the surface smoother. The solder is less likely to flow to other positions, ensuring good solder coverage. The inner protrusion increases the contact surface, thereby ensuring good welding and reducing the likelihood of cold solder joints. The soldering method of the second solder bath 12, the second protrusion 10 and the end of the inner core 3 is the same as the soldering method of the inductor coil 4 in the first opening 5.
[0031] The outer casing 1 is covered with FEP heat-shrinkable tubing for high temperature resistance and insulation on its sides and bottom. The side wall of the outer casing 1 is provided with a notch 13 corresponding to the first molten solder bath 11.
[0032] This utility model of notch filter has a wide notch bandwidth and high suppression, making it suitable for use in products such as filters with lightning protection and high intermodulation requirements.
[0033] The advantages of this utility model are as follows: the openings on the two sides and bottom of the inner shell are all made by non-material removal punching process, so that a raised ring is formed around the opening to form a raised unit, which increases the connection surface of the connected parts. At the same time, an arc-shaped unit is formed on the outside of the opening to form a solder bath, so that the solder will not flow to other positions, ensuring that the solder and the connected parts are well covered, thereby ensuring good welding and making it less likely to have cold solder joints or false solder joints.
