Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sintering support technology, specifically a sintering support device for optical module accessories. Background Technology

[0002] Optical module components have complex structures, and traditional machining is inefficient and costly. Utilizing metal injection molding technology to produce high-precision optical module components, through mold forming, can improve production efficiency while reducing processing costs to one-third of machining. The key core process can be divided into four steps: feeding, injection, debinding (or degreasing), and sintering. Both debinding and sintering require the placement and support of the components.

[0003] In kilns for debonding or in sintering furnaces, placing annealed parts on a movable base plate and transferring them into the furnace for annealing is a common practice. However, excessive contact area during placement can hinder the uniform heat transfer to the annealed parts, affecting the annealing quality. Traditional support fixtures are often structurally fixed or use screws for fixation. During sintering, thermal expansion and deformation can affect subsequent assembly and disassembly. To address these issues, a sintering support device for optical module accessories is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-5 In this embodiment, a sintering support device for optical module accessories includes a placement mechanism 1 and four sets of overhead mechanisms 2 disposed on the top of the placement mechanism 1. Several optical module accessory support molds 3 are provided between two adjacent sets of overhead mechanisms 2. A positioning mechanism 4 for fixing the overhead mechanisms 2 to the placement mechanism 1 is installed on the placement mechanism 1; the placement mechanism 1 is a basic bearing component.

[0026] The placement mechanism 1 includes a placement plate 11, handles 12 connected to both sides of the placement plate 11, and a strip groove 13 provided on the placement plate 11; the placement plate 11 provides a stable support surface, and the handles 12 on both sides facilitate the overall handling.

[0027] Each set of the overhead mechanism 2 includes several pads 21 and an extension strip 23 connected to the bottom of the pads 21. The extension strip 23 is placed in the strip groove 13. The extension strip 23 is embedded in the strip groove 13, so that the pads 21 are placed stably, which is conducive to the stable placement of the optical module accessory support module 3 and prevents displacement.

[0028] The positioning mechanism 4 includes a movable strip 41 slidably disposed in the placement plate 11, a connecting strip 42 connected to one side of the movable strip 41, and an insert block 43 connected to one side of the connecting strip 42. The extension strip 23 has an insertion hole 24 corresponding to the insert block 43 on one side, and the placement plate 11 has a limiting member on one side for limiting the horizontal position of the movable strip 41.

[0029] After the pad 21 is placed, the extension strip 23 is placed in the strip groove 13. Pushing the moving strip 41 will cause the connecting strip 42 to drive the insert 43 to be inserted into the socket 24, thus restricting the extension strip 23 within the strip groove 13 and fixing the position of the pad 21.

[0030] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The top of the pad 21 is provided with a limiting groove 22, the inner wall of the limiting groove 22 is in contact with the outer side wall of the optical module accessory support mold 3, and each set of pads 21 is provided with two sets of limiting grooves 22 on the top. The two sets of limiting grooves 22 are symmetrically arranged, and the side of the two sets of limiting grooves 22 that are far apart is connected to the outside. Furthermore, the optical module accessory support mold 3 is provided with an optical module accessory support groove.

[0031] Specifically, the setting of the limiting groove 22 facilitates the stable placement of the optical module accessory support mold 3 and makes it easier to remove later, reducing manual adjustment time and improving operation efficiency. The optical module accessory support groove on the optical module accessory support mold 3 is set according to the actual structure of the optical module accessory, so that the optical module accessory support groove can be partially matched with the optical module accessory, and the optical module accessory can be stably placed in the optical module accessory support groove.

[0032] Furthermore, an overhead cavity is provided between two adjacent sets of overhead structures 2; specifically, the overhead cavity facilitates the flow of hot air.

[0033] Please see Figure 5 The placement plate 11 is provided with a moving groove 14 for the sliding of the moving bar 41. One end of the moving groove 14 is connected to the outside, and a movable groove 15 for the sliding of the connecting bar 42 is provided on one side of the moving groove 14. Specifically, the moving bar 41 can be moved and adjusted laterally within a certain range, thereby driving the connecting bar 42 to adjust its position within the movable groove 15.

[0034] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3The limiting component includes a limiting rod 5. One end of the moving strip 41 extending to the outside of the placement plate 11 is connected to a block 44. The block 44 is provided with a square groove 45 that engages with the limiting rod 5. Two sets of handles 12 located near the side of the block 44 are provided with through holes for the limiting rod 5 to pass through. Specifically, the moving strip 41 can be moved and its position adjusted by pulling the block 44. The insert 43 is inserted into the insertion hole 24, and the through hole corresponds to the square groove 45, so that the limiting rod 5 can pass through and be fixed, thus fixing the position of the block 44.

[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: the placement plate 11 provides a stable support surface, the extension strip 23 is embedded in the strip groove 13 to make the pad 21 stable. The position of the moving strip 41 can be adjusted by pulling the block 44. Pushing the moving strip 41 will cause the connecting strip 42 to drive the insertion block 43 to be inserted into the insertion hole 24, restricting the extension strip 23 in the strip groove 13, thereby fixing the position of the pad 21. The limiting rod 5 can be passed through and fixed to fix the position of the block 44. The optical module accessory support mold 3 is placed on the pad 21, and the corresponding optical module accessories to be sintered are placed in the optical module accessory support groove. The cavity facilitates the circulation of hot air and facilitates the transfer of heat.
