Abstract

PURPOSE:To restrain the air from entering the inside of a heating chamber, by a method wherein a number of shield plates, with which inert gas within the heating chamber is restrained from flowing out at the outside of the title furnace, are formed in inlet and outlet pathways provided at the front and rear parts of the heating chamber, and a horizontal plate part is formed at the top end of each of the shield plates. CONSTITUTION:In the title furnace, circuit boards 19, on each of which electronic part are placed, are carried in and out under the condition that both sides thereof are supported by a chain conveyor. The circuit boards 19 are conveyed through an inlet pathways 15 and an outlet pathway 17 extended at the front and rear parts of a heating chamber 13 equipped with heaters 11, and the electronic parts are soldered on the circuit boards 19. The inside of the title furnace is filled with inert gas such as nitrogen and the inert gas prevents the oxidation of the circuit boards and the electronic parts. In order that this inert gas is prevented from flowing out, a number of shield plates 23 are arranged on the top and bottom of the inside of each of the pathways 15, 17, at regular intervals in the traveling direction of the circuit boards 19. In this case, a horizontal plate part 25 is formed at the top end of each of the shield plates 23 on alternate pieces, and the air is effectively prevented from entering the heating chamber, which trouble is caused with the conveyance of the circuit boards 19.

2. Description of the Related Art When an electronic component is mounted on a circuit board by soldering, the circuit board on which the electronic component is mounted at a predetermined position is passed through a heating furnace to melt the solder for soldering. In this case, the heating furnace is filled with an inert gas such as nitrogen gas to prevent oxidation of the circuit board and electronic components.

Conventionally, in order to fill the inside of the heating furnace with an inert gas, a method of shutting off the inside and outside of the furnace with a shutter has been generally used. However, since this method is poor in workability, recently as shown in FIG. A non-contact seal type heating furnace has been proposed.
This heating furnace has a heating chamber 13 in which a heater 11 is installed.
And an inlet passage 15 and an outlet passage 17, in which a circuit board 19 on which electronic components are mounted is a chain conveyor 21.
This allows the vehicle to run with both sides supported.

The heating chamber 13 is filled with an inert gas for the purpose of preventing oxidation, and this inert gas constantly flows out from the inlet passage 15 and the outlet passage 17 in order to prevent air from entering from the outside. It is kept in a state of working. However, it is uneconomical to constantly discharge the inert gas to the outside,
It is necessary to minimize the outflow. Therefore, in the conventional heating furnace, the upper and lower parts in the inlet passage 15 and the outlet passage 17 are
A large number of shield plates 23 are arranged at a predetermined interval in the traveling direction of the circuit board 19, thereby providing resistance to the inert gas flowing out and suppressing the outflow of the inert gas.

However, in such a structure, the oxygen concentration in the heating chamber can be kept relatively low and stable in the state where the circuit boards are not charged. However, when the circuit boards are sequentially charged, It was found that there was a problem that the oxygen concentration in the heating chamber fluctuated significantly. By the way, when the circuit board is not put in, the oxygen concentration in the heating chamber is about 20.
Although it is about ppm, when the circuit board is put in, the oxygen concentration in the heating chamber fluctuates greatly within the range of several thousand ppm or less.

When the cause of this is investigated, for example, as shown in FIG. 4, when the circuit board 19 passes through the outlet passage 17 (also when passing through the inlet passage 15), the gap between the shield plates 23 is a circuit board 19. Since it is partitioned by the upper and lower sides, the warm gas in the furnace goes out through the upper side of the circuit board 19, and on the lower side of the circuit board 19, on the contrary, outside air is sucked into the furnace. I found out that Due to the intake of the outside air, the oxygen concentration in the furnace fluctuates significantly.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a heating furnace for soldering which solves the above-mentioned problems, and has a structure in which a circuit board on which electronic components are mounted is heated to solder the both. A heating chamber to be attached, an inlet passage for introducing the circuit board into the heating chamber, and an outlet passage for leading out the circuit board from the heating chamber are provided, and the circuit board runs above and below the inlet passage and the outlet passage. In a heating furnace for soldering, in which a large number of shielding plates that suppress the outflow of the inert gas in the heating chamber to the outside of the heating chamber at predetermined intervals are arranged, at least one of the inlet passage and the outlet passage, It is characterized in that a horizontal plate portion is provided at least at the tip of the shield plate arranged on the lower side so that the shield plate has a T-shaped cross section.

By doing so, the air sucked into the furnace from the lower side of the circuit board is trapped in the space between the shield plates by the horizontal plate portion provided at the tip of the shield plate and stays there. The amount of air entering the heating chamber is very small, and the oxygen concentration in the heating chamber can be kept low.

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a heating furnace for soldering according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, the same parts as those of the heating furnace of FIG. 3 described above are designated by the same reference numerals. This heating furnace is different from the heating furnace of FIG. 3 in that a horizontal plate portion 25 is provided at the tip of the shielding plate 23 disposed in the inlet passage 15 and the outlet passage 17 so that the shielding plate has a T-shaped cross section. That is.

When such a horizontal plate portion 25 is provided, as shown in FIG. 4, the air sucked into the furnace from the lower side of the circuit board 19 is caught in the space between the shield plates 23. Since the air stays in the heating chamber 13, it becomes difficult for air to enter the heating chamber 13, and the oxygen concentration in the heating chamber 13 can be kept low.
In addition, since the heated inert gas is easily entangled on the upper side of the circuit board 19, the outflow amount of the inert gas can be reduced.

The horizontal plate 25 is provided with a shield plate 1 as shown in the figure.
It is most effective to provide every other sheet. This is because if all the shield plates 23 are provided with the horizontal plate portions 25, it becomes more difficult for gas to be entrapped, and if two or three shield plates are provided, the horizontal plate portions are too small. This is because the gas entrainment action becomes small.

The shield plate having a T-shaped cross section is a vertical shield plate.
It can be constructed by welding the horizontal plate portion 25 to the tip of 23, but it is also possible to construct it by combining back-to-back shield plates having an L-shaped cross section.

As described above, according to the present invention, the air that is about to enter the furnace from the lower side of the circuit board is generated between the shield plates by the horizontal plate portion provided at the tip of the shield plate. The oxygen concentration in the heating chamber can be kept low and stable because it is caught in the space and stays there, and it is difficult for the heating chamber to enter. Therefore, the circuit board and the electronic component can be satisfactorily soldered without causing defects due to oxidation.
