Description

Purify the method and apparatus of printed circuit board (PCB) mask or printed circuit board (PCB)
The present invention relates to remove the method that sticks to adhesive agent on the printed circuit board (PCB) mask surface, relate to and remove the method that sticks to adhesive agent on the printed circuit board surface and relate to removing and stick on the printed circuit board (PCB) mask surface or the device of adhesive agent on the printed circuit board surface.
Electronics or electric circuit have the electric or electronic device that is electrically connected to each other.These cell configuration are on so-called printed circuit board (PCB).Printed circuit board (PCB) has the electrical cable that device is electrically connected mutually.These connecting lines are by printing formation at circuit board.Electrical cable is formed on a side of printed circuit board (PCB).And cell configuration is on a side opposite with printed wire of printed circuit board (PCB), and the connector lug of device passes the through hole on the printed circuit board (PCB).Then with the connector lug soldering on line suitable on the printed circuit board (PCB).
These devices automatically are welded on the printed circuit board (PCB) basically.For this reason, the welding operation that all connector lugs of these devices are welded on the printed circuit board (PCB) is carried out in the known manner basically simultaneously.This welding operation is also referred to as " wave soldering ".
For carrying out the wave soldering that has inserted the printed circuit board (PCB) of these devices on it, earlier all devices are inserted on the printed circuit board (PCB).Make the connector lug of device protrude from the downside of printed circuit board (PCB) partly, make the surface of this downside of the printed circuit board (PCB) that is inserted with device, make the suitable tie point on this scolder contact connector lug and the printed circuit board (PCB) near liquid solder.In the connection that just forms after the solder solidification between device and the printed circuit board (PCB) conductive path.
The prerequisite that adopts this method is that device will be configured on the printed circuit board (PCB) solid and reliablely, makes that when processing is inserted with the printed circuit board (PCB) of device they can not leave the position of its regulation.
With bonding agent device is bonded on the printed circuit board (PCB) and just can accomplishes this point.For this reason, bonding agent is coated in the appropriate section of printed circuit board (PCB).This bonding agent will solidify quite rapidly, to guarantee that above-mentioned device is just stiff after suitable device is inserted printed circuit board (PCB).Can automatically quite at high speed device be inserted printed circuit board (PCB) according to this mode.
As already explained, bonding agent only is coated in the appropriate location of printed circuit board (PCB).Utilize so-called printed circuit board (PCB) mask that bonding agent is coated on the printed circuit board (PCB).The printed circuit board (PCB) mask has perforate, and bonding agent can enter or enter printed circuit board (PCB) by this perforate.
After coating bonding agent on the printed circuit board (PCB), device is inserted printed circuit board (PCB).
Because bonding agent at a good pace solidifies, so there is such problem, promptly remaining bonding agent adheres on the perforated wall of printed circuit board (PCB) mask always, and the result is no longer to guarantee and bonding agent correctly can be coated on the printed circuit board (PCB).In addition, also have such problem, promptly bonding agent may be pulled away from printed circuit board (PCB) when removing the printed circuit board (PCB) mask.
With the solvent clean printed circuit board (PCB) mask that comprises hydrocarbon is well-known, particularly cleans with ethanol.Cleaning operation needs to carry out in specially designed place, because the danger of blast is arranged when cleaning with the solvent that comprises hydrocarbon.Therefore cleaning operation can not be incorporated in the production procedure of circuit.
And bonding agent is coated with to such an extent that incorrect printed circuit board (PCB) also needs to clean, and then turns back in the production procedure of circuit.Still adopt the solvent clean printed circuit board (PCB) that comprises hydrocarbon so far.And, do not wish to adopt the cleaning solvent that comprises hydrocarbon from the viewpoint of contaminated environment yet.
Except that above-mentioned wave soldering and, also adopt so-called Reflow Soldering connection that device is connected in printed circuit board (PCB).For this reason, need solder(ing) paste is coated on the tie point between device and the printed circuit board (PCB).Printed circuit board (PCB) is heat-treated with device and solder(ing) paste, and this solder(ing) paste dissolves in heat treatment.Also can utilize the printed circuit board (PCB) mask to smear solder(ing) paste.Therefore these printed circuit board (PCB) masks also must clean.This cleaning also be applicable on printed circuit board (PCB) solder(ing) paste be coated with the cleaning of incorrect those printed circuit board (PCB)s.
Being used to be coated with the printed circuit board (PCB) mask that adds solder(ing) paste still adopts the solvent of bag house hydrocarbon to clean so far.
Solder(ing) paste also comprises welding agent.Under the situation of welding agent that is corrosive, the printed circuit board (PCB) that also must cleaning have made, otherwise the danger of being corroded is arranged.
Based on above-mentioned situation, main purpose of the present invention provides a kind of adhesive agent of removing, specifically be the method for removing bonding agent, tinol, these adhesive agents stick on the surface printed circuit board (PCB) mask or printed circuit board (PCB), are intended to the solvent without hydrocarbon-containiproducts in this method.Another purpose of method is intended to design a kind of method, makes this method can be incorporated in the production procedure of circuit.Another object of the present invention provides a kind of device that sticks to the lip-deep adhesive agent printed circuit board (PCB) mask or printed circuit board (PCB) of removing, and this device can be safely and removed adhesive agent reliably.This device is predetermined can be incorporated on the production line of circuit.
