Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flux production, and more specifically, to a storage device for flux production and processing. Background Technology
[0002] Flux is a chemical substance that helps and promotes the welding process in welding, while also providing protection and preventing oxidation.
[0003] After flux production, it needs to be stored to facilitate subsequent processing and use, such as in the production of solder wire. The produced flux is often stored in sealed storage tanks. Before using the stored flux, it needs to be stirred to prevent sedimentation and stratification, which would lead to unstable flux activity when poured into the solder wire. Furthermore, flux is susceptible to moisture, and prolonged contact with air or high temperatures can cause oxidation and slow polymerization reactions. Therefore, once the storage tank is opened, the flux in the storage tank needs to be used up quickly to prevent the flux from deteriorating. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0016] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of this utility model, but not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model. In addition, the directional terms mentioned in this utility model, such as "up," "down," "front," "back," "left," "right," "inner," and "outer," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings. The directional terms are used to better and more clearly explain and understand this utility model, and are not intended to indicate or imply the necessary orientation of this utility model. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0017] Examples of embodiments of this utility model Figure 1 As shown, a flux production and processing storage device includes a storage tank 1. A partition 2 is provided inside the storage tank 1, dividing the interior of the storage tank 1 into an upper storage chamber 10 and a lower dispensing chamber 11. A discharge port 20 is provided on the partition 2, and a first sealing valve 21 is provided inside the discharge port 20. A stirring mechanism for stirring the flux in the storage chamber 10 is provided on the storage tank 1. A feed inlet 12 is provided at the top of the storage tank 1, located at the top of the left side wall of the storage tank 1. A second sealing valve 13 is provided inside the feed inlet 12. Preferably, both the first sealing valve 21 and the second sealing valve 13 are solenoid valves. A gas replacement mechanism is provided at the top of the storage tank 1. A temperature and humidity controller 6 is provided on the storage tank 1 to control the temperature and humidity inside the storage chamber 10. Preferably, the temperature and humidity controller 6 is a constant temperature and humidity controller. A dispensing port is provided on the storage tank 1 at the location of the dispensing chamber 10.
[0018] The flux in the storage chamber 10 of the storage tank 1 is stirred by the stirring mechanism to prevent the flux from settling and stratifying. The flux can be used immediately after being taken out of the storage chamber 1 through the discharge port 20. The discharge port 20 and the inlet port 12 are sealed by the first sealing valve 21 and the second sealing valve 13 respectively to prevent the flux from evaporating. At the same time, the gas replacement mechanism replaces the gas in the storage chamber 10 of the storage tank 1 with an inert gas to prevent the flux from oxidizing and undergoing a slow polymerization reaction. The gas replacement mechanism also increases the gas pressure in the storage chamber 10 to facilitate the flux being squeezed out from the discharge port 20 into the take-up chamber 11. The temperature and humidity control machine 6 prevents the flux from getting damp and decomposing at high temperatures.
[0019] Further improvements, such as Figure 1 As shown, the gas replacement mechanism includes a vacuum pump 5 and a filling pump 50 for filling inert gas. Both the vacuum pump 5 and the filling pump 50 are located on the upper surface of the storage tank 1. The vacuum pump 50 removes the air from the storage cavity 10, and the filling pump 50 fills the storage cavity 10 with inert gas, thereby quickly completing the gas replacement in the storage cavity 10 and preventing the flux from oxidizing and undergoing a slow polymerization reaction.
[0020] Further improvements, such as Figure 1 As shown, the storage tank 1 is provided with a protective cover 51 to protect the vacuum pump 5 and the filling pump 50. The vacuum pump 5's suction end extends into the storage cavity 10, and the vacuum pump 5's exhaust end extends out of the protective cover 51. The filling pump 50's inlet end extends out of the protective cover 51, and the filling pump 50's filling end extends into the storage cavity 10. The filling pump 50's inlet end is connected to a gas tank containing inert gas. Preferably, the inert gas is nitrogen.
[0021] Further improvements, such as Figure 1 As shown, the stirring mechanism includes a stirring rod 3 and a drive motor 4. The stirring rod 3 is rotatably disposed in the storage cavity 10, and the drive motor 4 is disposed on the upper surface of the storage tank 1. One end of the stirring rod 3 extends out of the storage tank 1 and is connected to the output end of the drive motor 4. The drive motor 4 drives the stirring rod 3 to rotate, thereby stirring the flux and preventing the flux from settling and separating.
[0022] Further improvements, such as Figure 1 As shown, the stirring rod 3 includes a stirring part 30 and a connecting part 31. The stirring part 30 is located inside the storage chamber 10. The flux in the storage chamber 10 is lower than the feed inlet 12. The stirring part 30 is located below the feed inlet 12 to prevent the flux from splashing into the feed inlet 12 when the stirring part 30 is stirring the flux. The connecting part 31 extends out of the storage tank 1 and is connected to the output end of the drive motor 4.
[0023] Further improvements, such as Figure 1 As shown, the storage tank 1 has a drawer 7 slidably disposed at the feeding port, located directly below the discharge port 20. The drawer 7 receives the flux coming out of the feeding port 20, and the flux can be transported to other processing locations by pulling out the drawer 7, which is very convenient.
[0024] Further improvements, such as Figure 1 As shown, the separator 2 has a funnel-shaped structure, and the discharge port 20 is located in the through hole at the bottom of the separator 2. The funnel-shaped structure of the separator 2 facilitates the flow of flux from the discharge port 20.
[0025] Further improvements, such as Figure 1 As shown, the lower surface of the storage tank 1 is provided with a support foot 8. Preferably, the bottom surface of the support foot 8 is provided with a shock-absorbing pad to reduce the vibration generated when stirring the flux.
[0026] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or modifications based on the above description, and all such improvements and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
