The invention relates to soldering equipment, and can be used in soldering and repair centers or infrared soldering stations, in particular, for soldering chip BGA and other electronic components.

Known devices for soldering or tap chips infrared rays Ersa IR-550, Ersa IR-650, Ersa HR 600, QUICK BGA2015, Jovy Systems, RE-8500, using upper infrared heater that sits just above the center of the chip.

To restrict zone heat (radiation) PCBs currently used two systems.

1. Adjustable aperture (movable shutters)at which the limit of the zone of irradiation (window through which emits infrared heater) with adjustment flat metal sliding shutters.

2. Replacement of diaphragms, which are located under the IR heater, thus supplied with soldering station is a few diaphragms with different dimensions of the window, and as necessary™ these diaphragms are replaced.

The closest analogue of the device can be regarded as a device for soldering or tap a chip on the PCB, including case with mounted therein infrared heater placed in the lower part of the housing with a diaphragm with a hole that is installed with the possibility of accommodation at a given distance from working Desk with a fixed printed Board with brazed chip, disclosed in the patent JP 2010-278248 A1, IPC UK 1/005, 09.12.2010.

The disadvantages of the given systems constraints heating zone, including devices, taken as a prototype, are the following.

1. The scattering of radiation in a large area of the PCB due to the diffusion of radiation heater (full angle of exposure). However during this process, you will need to cover sensitive areas of the PCB reflect infrared rays material.

2. The loss of output due to the overlap shutters or aperture part of the heater surface.

3. The need to bring the heater to the Board at the small distance to reduce space heating, which results in worsening conditions for the visual control of soldering process.

The objective of the invention is to improve the quality of heating by changing the design of the diaphragm with the hub of the infrared rays.

The technical result, which is provided using the proposed device for soldering, is to increase the uniformity and specific power generated IR rays of the temperature field on the surface of the Board and microcircuit due to the reflection of infrared rays from the walls of the hub.

In addition, decreasing the effective angle of heating is an increase in the concentration of IR rays on a smaller area of the Board. Thus, at the constant power infrared heater allocated power is concentrated on a smaller area, leading to increased power density of radiation per unit area of the PCB.

The technical result is achieved due to the fact that the device for soldering or tap a chip on the PCB, including case with mounted it an infrared heater, installed with the possibility of its positioning on the desktop to the circuit Board on the regulated distance, while in the lower part of the body is placed aperture with a hole, limiting the zone the brazed heat circuits, in accordance with the proposed invention referred aperture contains the hub of infrared radiation, located on a path to aperture and made as reflecting element, vertical and/or tilted in the direction from infrared heater, the ratio of the size of the pupil, height and/or fragile tilt reflecting element is selected from the condition of given sizes heating zones and specific power of infrared radiation in the zone brazed chips.

Reflecting the device element can be made in the form of paired inclined and vertical parts.

Reflecting the item or its part may be flat or curved reflecting surface, for example, parabolic or hyperbolic form.

Moreover, reflecting the element or part of it can be made with the possibility of changing the angle of inclination and/or height.

Reflecting element can be made in the form of walls of various height and/or with different angles.

Aperture and the hub of infrared radiation can be in the form of a single structural element, or in the form of separate constructive elements.

Figure 1 shows the construction of the body with infrared heater and flat aperture with the scheme of distribution of infrared radiation, according to the prototype.

The figures 2-5 shows the construction of the body with infrared heater and a hub with a scheme of distribution of infrared radiation, according to the options of the proposed device.

Figure 3 - the hub IR radiation with a reflective surface in the form of inclined planes

Figure 4 - hub-infrared radiation with reflective surfaces in the form of vertical and inclined planes

Figure 5 - the hub of IR radiation with curvilinear reflecting surface (similar to a hub with reflective surfaces in the form of vertical and inclined planes presented on figure 4).

Below indicate the positions used on reported figures.

1. The housing.

2. Infrared heater.

3. Blinds or flat aperture.

4. The chip.

5. Printed circuit Board.

6. The direct rays.

7. The rays reflected from the diaphragm (loss radiation).

8. Effective angle of heating.

9. Full angle of radiation.

10. The hub of IR radiation.

11. The reflected rays.

The proposed device combines limiting diaphragm of the heating zone (exposure) infrared rays with redirection cut off rays in the area soldering due to their reflection from the vertical wall (figure 2), located at the shape of the hole, or reflections from the inclined wall of the diaphragm (figure 3), which leads to an increase in the intensity (power density) heat at constant power infrared heater. The elements mentioned diaphragm form the hub of the infrared rays.

In addition, versions of aperture with complex the hub, shown in figure 4 and figure 5, by the reflection of infrared rays using an inclined plot aperture allows to use the IR rays that in cases in accordance with figure 2-3 did not participate in the heated, which were attributed to the loss of radiation. Such an implementation, further increases the efficiency of heating circuits.

As can be seen from the figure 2-5 schemes, the use of hubs IR rays reduces as full angle of radiation and effective angle of heat, making it close to renounce the use of protective reflecting plates on the free areas of the PCB, sensitive to overheating.

By increasing the power density of radiation conditions are being created to increase the clearance between the motherboard and the bottom of the device, at least from a distance "b" to the distance "A", thus by increasing gap improve conditions for the visual control of the soldering process, and due to the presence visually visible wall simplifies the process of positioning the top infrared heater above the center of the chip.

The shape of the window in the diaphragm may be rectangular, but may be round, oval or any other form depending on the configuration of chip package.

Proposed installation can be used in different types of infrared heaters, including, in the visible and non-visible range of the spectrum of infrared radiation, and even light bulbs.

For the most efficient use of soldering equipment aperture and walls reflecting element is made of a material with a maximum reflection coefficient in the range of infrared waves emitted IR heater.

The concrete sizes of holes diaphragm, height and/or angle of the reflecting element selected calculation or experimentally of the conditions for obtaining the necessary heating parameters depending on the construction and properties of brazed elements.
