JIG FOR SIDE PRINTING OF A CHIP ELEMENT}

The present invention relates to a side printing jig for forming a terminal on the side of the chip component, and more particularly to a side printing jig applicable to chip components of various sizes and various thicknesses.

In general, a ceramic multilayer chip component has to form a terminal on the side of the chip for electrically connecting the circuit inside the component and the external circuit. On the other hand, as the size of the chip becomes smaller, terminals are precisely formed using a screen printing method or the like.

1 is a schematic view showing a conventional method of printing a side of a chip, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view showing an enlarged main part of FIG. 1.

As shown, the conventional side printing method uses a metal jig 1 in which a plurality of chip holes 2 are formed on a flat plate. The side of the chip 3 is inserted into the chip hole 2 of the metal jig 1 so as to face upward. At this time, the horizontal and vertical widths (l ₁ , l ₂ ) of the chip hole (2) should be equal to the length (a) and height (c) of the components of the chip 3, respectively, and the thickness (t) of the metal jig (1) ) Must be equal to the width b of the chip to firmly support the chip 3.

Thus, after inserting the chip 3 component into each chip hole 2 of the metal jig 1, the mask 4 for screen printing in which the terminal pattern was formed is put on it. In the exemplary drawing, three terminal portions 5 for each chip 3 are patterned. The silver paste 6 is filled in the terminal portion 5 of the mask 4 by using a screen printing roller 7 or the like in a state where a conductive material such as silver paste 6 is coated on the mask 4. To dry. On the other hand, the silver paste 6 is filled and dried in the same way on the other side, and the chip 3 component is taken out of the metal jig 1.

However, in the conventional method of printing the side of a chip component using a metal jig, since the chip hole 2 of the metal jig 1 is manufactured to be the same size as the size of the chip 3 part to be printed, the chip is inserted and removed one by one. It is difficult to follow, and in this process, the chip (3) components were damaged.

In addition, in the conventional metal jig 1, the size of the chip hole 2 must also be changed in order to insert the chips 3 of different sizes, so that the cost of the increase in the cost of manufacturing the metal jig 1 according to the size of the chip 3 is increased. The problem follows.

In addition, the chip holes (2) formed in the conventional metal jig (1) are arranged in a row, so that the printing characteristics because the squeegee (squeegee) or the roller (7) is moved in a row unit at a time during the printing operation, the flow occurs in the vertical direction There was a downside to this falling.

Accordingly, the present invention is to solve such a conventional problem, the side printing jig of the chip component that can not only easily insert the chip component into the metal jig, but also can easily remove the chip component from the metal jig after the side printing operation. The purpose is to provide.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a side printing jig of a chip component that can be used for a chip having various sizes and heights by adjusting the size and height of the chip hole of the metal jig.

In addition, another object of the present invention is to provide a side printing jig of a chip component capable of improving printing characteristics by preventing the vertical flow of squeegee or roller during printing.

The present invention for realizing the above object comprises a first plate is arranged a plurality of chip holes of a relatively larger size than the side size of the chip component, a plurality of coupling grooves formed on the edge; In the position corresponding to the plurality of chip holes formed in the first plate, a plurality of chip holes having a larger size than the side size of the chip component are arranged, and horizontal holes are formed in the horizontal direction at the position corresponding to the plurality of coupling grooves at the edges.

3 is an exploded perspective view showing a side printing jig of a chip according to the present invention, Figure 5 is an exploded perspective view showing another side printing jig according to the present invention. Meanwhile, FIGS. 4 and 6 are schematic views for explaining a method of adjusting the side printing jig according to FIGS. 3 and 5.

As shown, the side printing jig for forming the terminal 8 on the side of the chip 3 component according to the invention consists of three or two plates 10, 20, 30, 60, 70. .

First, referring to FIG. 3, the side printing jig according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention has three plates 10, 20, and 30 having a flat plate shape in sequence, and then a coupling hole 14 and a long hole (horizontal hole 24). ) And the vertical hole 24) are integrally mounted and mounted on the screen printing printing apparatus.

As described above, the ceramic multilayer chip 3 component has to form a terminal 8 on the side of the chip 3 for electrically connecting the circuit inside the component with the external circuit, and is generally used by screen printing. (8) is formed.

To this end, a plurality of first chip holes 12 are arranged on the first plate 10, and coupling holes 14 are formed at the square corners of the first plate 10. Here, the size of the first chip hole 12 is formed relatively larger than the side size of the chip 3 component. That is, the lengths of the width A ₁ and the length B _{1 of} the first chip hole 12 are greater than the lengths of the width A and the length B when the side surfaces of the components of the chip 3 face upward. Is relatively large.

Meanwhile, a second chip hole having a size larger than that of the side surface of the chip 3 part at a position corresponding to the plurality of chip holes 12 formed in the first plate 10 on the second plate 20 ( 22) is arranged. In particular, a horizontal long hole 24 is formed at the edge of the second plate 20 in a horizontal direction at a position corresponding to the coupling hole 14. Here, the first chip hole 12 and the second chip hole 22 may be formed in the same size, but need not necessarily be the same.

Meanwhile, a third chip having a size larger than the side size of the component of the chip 3 at a position corresponding to the plurality of first chip holes 12 formed in the first plate 10 also on the third plate 30. The holes 32 are arranged. In particular, a vertical long hole 34 is formed at the edge of the third plate 30 in a vertical direction at a position corresponding to the coupling hole 14. Here, like the first and second chip holes 12 and 22, the third chip hole 32 may be formed to have the same size as the first and second chip holes 12 and 22, but it is not necessarily the same.

Meanwhile, the first, second, and third plates 10, 20, and 30 are sequentially stacked and penetrated through the coupling holes 14, the horizontal holes 24, and the vertical holes 34 using the coupling means 40 such as bolts. Unite integrally.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Fig. 8, since the entire thickness of the side printing jig should be equal to the height H when the chip component is placed on the side, the first to third plates 30 The thickness control plate 50 is inserted between the first plate 10 and the third plate 30 to compensate for the thickness that is different from the thickness of the nested state.

Such a thickness control plate 50 is made of a silicone rubber material can be elastically adjusted according to the degree of fastening of the coupling means 40 in the elastic range.

Meanwhile, the area where the chip holes 12, 22, and 32 are formed in the center portion of the thickness control plate 50, that is, the first to third plates 10 and 30, is opened.

In addition, according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it is preferable that the chip holes 12, 22, 32 are arranged in an oblique direction in order to prevent the vertical flow of the squeegee or roller during printing. As such, when the chip holes 12, 22, and 32 are arranged in an oblique direction, the squeegee or rollers may be continuously contacted without being divided into rows of the chip holes 12, 22, and 32, thereby minimizing vertical flow and printing characteristics. This is improved.

In addition, according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the size of the chip hole 12, 22, 32 of the plate (10, 20, 30) to match the size of the chip 3, the movement of the plate (20, 30) is easy. In order to ensure that the adjustment knobs 16, 26, 36 are preferably installed at one end of the plate (10, 20, 30).

The chip hole size adjustment of the side printing jig of the chip component according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention configured as described above is performed as follows.

Referring to Figures 3 and 4, the first to third plates (10, 20, 30) are nested in sequence with each other, the coupling means 40, the coupling hole 14, the horizontal long hole 24 and the vertical long hole Tighten through 34. At this time, the coupling degree of the coupling means 40 is preliminarily fastened to the extent that the second to third plates 20 and 30 can flow along the long holes 24 and 34. On the other hand, the first to third chip holes 12, 22 and 32 are not completely matched, but remain in roughly matched state. Subsequently, the side of the chip 3 component on which the terminal 8 is to be formed is inserted into the chip holes 12, 22, and 32 with the side facing upward. Since the sizes of the first to third chip holes 12, 22, and 32 are formed to be larger than the side sizes of the chips 3, the first to third chip holes 12, 22, and 32 may be relaxed. In this state, the second plate 20 is moved in the horizontal direction to align the chip 3 component in any one of the left and right directions of the first chip hole 12. In this case, since the second plate 20 has a horizontal long hole 24 formed in the horizontal direction, the second plate 20 may move along the long hole 24 using the coupling hole 14 as a fixed point.

After the chip 3 parts are aligned in the right direction, the third plate 30 is moved in the vertical direction to align the chip 3 parts in one of the up and down directions of the first and second chip holes 2. In this case, since the third plate 30 has a vertical long hole 34 formed in the vertical direction, the long hole 34 is formed using the coupling hole 14 as a fixed point. Along the vertical direction. In this manner, the coupling means 40 preliminarily coupled in the state in which the chip 3 component is aligned at the lower right of the chip holes 12, 22, and 32 are completely engaged.

On the other hand, the height H of the chip 3 component and the total thickness of the first to third plates 10, 20, 30 when the chip 3 component is inserted into the chip hole 2 of the side printing jig. If H) does not coincide with each other, a separate thickness adjusting plate 50 is used. Since the thickness control plate 50 is manufactured to have various thicknesses, the thickness h of the thickness closest to the difference between the height of the chip 3 component and the overall thickness of the first to third plates 10, 20, and 30 is obtained. The control plate 50 is selected and inserted between the plates 10, 20, 30. Since the thickness control plate 50 is made of a silicone rubber material and has elasticity, the thickness control plate 50 can be adjusted according to the fastening degree of the coupling means 40 within the elastic range.

As described above, according to the present invention, the second plate 20 is moved in the horizontal direction according to the side size of the chip component to adjust the size of the chip hole 2 to be equal to the length of the chip 3 component, and the third plate 30. ) Can be vertically moved to match the size of the chip hole 2 to the width of the chip 3 component, and the thickness adjustment plate 50 allows the height of the chip 3 component and the thickness of the side printing jig. Can be adjusted.

Meanwhile, a side printing jig of another embodiment according to the present invention is shown in FIG. 5, and a schematic diagram for explaining the adjusting method is shown in FIG. 6.

5 and 6, the side printing jig according to another embodiment of the present invention is composed of two plates (60, 70) simpler than the structure described above.

The first plate 60 is configured in the same structure as the first plate 10 described above. On the other hand, the second plate 70 is the same as the second chip hole 72 is formed, but the hole 74 in the diagonal direction of the first chip hole 62 at a position corresponding to the plurality of coupling holes 64 There is a difference in that it is formed.

As described above, the long hole 74 formed in the diagonal direction may move the second plate 70 in the diagonal direction with respect to the first plate 60, thereby simultaneously adjusting the aspect ratio of the chip holes 62 and 72. However, there is a disadvantage in that the ratio of aspect ratio is not independently controlled, but there is an advantage of forming a simple structure compared to the above-described embodiment.

Meanwhile, the method of adjusting the chip holes 62 and 72 of the side printing jig according to another embodiment of the present invention is the same as the above-described embodiment, and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted. However, in the above-described embodiment, the length and width of the chip holes 12, 22, and 32 are adjusted by moving the second plate 20 and the third plate 30, respectively. There is only a difference in the point that the plate 70 is moved in the diagonal direction of the chip holes 62, 72 and adjusted at once.

In the above description, it should be understood that those skilled in the art can make modifications and changes to the present invention without changing the gist of the present invention as merely illustrative of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

As described above, according to the present invention, since the chip part is inserted in a state where the chip hole of the side printing jig is relatively wider than the side size of the chip part, it is easy to insert the chip part from the side printing jig after the side printing job. Even when removing, the size of the chip hole can be extracted in a state where the size of the chip hole is larger than the size of the chip component after releasing the coupling means, thereby minimizing damage to the chip component.

In addition, since the chip hole is formed in the diagonal direction, it is possible to prevent the vertical flow of the squeegee or the roller during the printing operation to improve the printing characteristics.
