In the manufacturing process of the rf switch 100 of the present invention, the following steps are included, but the applicant should note that the sequence of these steps is not fixed and unique, and can be adjusted appropriately according to the requirement, so that the difference caused by only adjusting the sequence of these steps is still equivalent to the scope of the present invention.

First, the upper case 11, the lower case 12, the movable terminal 31, and the stationary terminal 32 are manufactured by a metal stamping process.

Then, the first insulator 21 and the upper housing 11 are integrally injection-molded to form an upper module. The upper surface of the base 211 of the first insulator 21 is attached to the upper plate portion 111 of the upper case 11, and the cylindrical portion 212 is held in the accommodating space 113 of the abutting cylindrical portion 112. The first boss 1121 and the second boss 2121 are mutually clamped to increase the coupling force.

The second insulator 22 and the lower shell 12 are integrally injection-molded into a single piece and together form a lower mold. The lower surface of the base portion 221 of the second insulator 22 is in contact with the upper surface of the lower plate portion 121. The first recess 222 is correspondingly matched with the first yielding groove 122, and the second recess 223 is correspondingly matched with the second yielding groove 124. The outer surfaces of the two lateral sides of the base 221 are attached to the inner surface of the lower sidewall 126, and the outer surfaces of the four lower protrusions 24 are attached to the inner surface of the lower sidewall 126. The outer edge 27 is held by the front and rear edges of the lower plate portion 121. The outer edge side 29 of the outer edge 27 is held in the holding recess 128, and the engaging piece 71 is held in the notch above the protruding portion 129 between the two lower edge walls 127, so that the holding between the front and rear outer edges of the second insulator 22 and the lower case 12 is more secure. The lower surfaces of the outer edge bottom portions 28 of the outer edge portions 27 arranged in the front-rear direction are flush with the lower surfaces of the first thin plate portion 123 and the second thin plate portion 125, respectively. The first thin plate portion 123 and the second thin plate portion 125 can increase the contact area with the second insulator 22 to make the holding force between them stronger, and in addition, because the lower shell 12 is supported by the lower side of the second insulator 22 in a large area, the second insulator 22 can be better supported by the lower shell 12, and the second insulator 22 is prevented from bending and deforming downwards, so that the stability of elastic fit between the movable terminal 31 and the fixed terminal 32 after the subsequent conductive terminal 30 is assembled can be effectively ensured.

In order to facilitate the process of integrally injection molding the second insulator 22 and the lower shell 12, in some embodiments, a plastic flow is injected from the glue injection hole 51 formed through the lower flat plate portion 121 of the lower shell 12 during injection molding, and the lower surface of the base 221 of the second insulator 22 protrudes downward to form the glue injection portion 52 corresponding to the glue injection hole. The inner edge of the bottom side of the glue injection hole 51 forms an annular inclined surface 511, and the glue injection part 52 correspondingly forms an annular covering part 521 fixedly combined on the annular inclined surface 511 so as to stably combine the second insulator 22 with the lower shell 12 at the glue injection hole 51. The lower surface of the glue injection part 52 does not exceed the lower surface of the lower plate part 121. The injection holes 52 are the preferred injection locations for an injection molding machine (not shown).

Then, the movable terminal 31 and the fixed terminal 32 are assembled between the upper module and the lower module, and the pair of contact spring arms 315 of the movable terminal 31 elastically contact the pair of contact arms 324 of the fixed terminal 32 from bottom to top. Then, the upper module and the lower module are assembled together in the vertical direction. The upper through groove 214 forms a communicating space with the lower through groove 224, the insertion hole 213 and the lower concave space 225.

At this time, the stationary terminal 32 is held at a position rearward between the upper and lower die sets. The second welding portion 321 and the second vertical arm 322 of the fixed terminal 32 are located in the second notch 223. The first and second pressing portions 215 and 216 vertically correspond to the first and second pressing portions 228 and 229 and clamp the second clamped portion 323. A pair of the contact arms 324 are suspended above the recessed space 225. The movable terminal 31 is held between the upper and lower die sets at a position forward. The first welding portion 311 and the first vertical arm 312 of the movable terminal 31 are located in the first notch 222. The elastic portion 313 extends from the first vertical arm 312 to the rear through the space 25, the channel 26 and the recessed space 225. The pair of third pressing portions 217 vertically correspond to the bottom surface of the stopper space 25 and hold the pair of held legs 318 to fix the movable terminal 31. The elastic part 313 is suspended in the limiting space 25 and the concave space 225, so that the part of the elastic part 313 located therein can have a larger space for elastic deformation. The elastic portion 313 is integrally and upwardly elastically contacted to a point on the lateral outer side of the contact arm 324 in a single point contact manner. After the movable terminal 31 and the fixed terminal 32 are assembled to the upper and lower modules, the elastic portion 313 receives upper and lower pressure from the fixed terminal 32 and the lower module, so that the elastic portion 313 is elastically deformed downward to form a non-upward arched shape. During the process of assembling and fixing the upper module and the lower module, the elastic portion 313 may be pressed from an initial configuration to a non-arched shape. At this time, the elastic portion 313 has a tendency of extending backward (or extending backward in a direction inclined from high to low in other embodiments) after being bent from the first vertical arm 312, and the free end of the contact elastic arm 315 abuts against the inclined surface 227 of the blocking wall 226, so that the movable terminal 31 and the stationary terminal 32 have a large elastic contact force.

The outer surface of the lower edge wall 127 of the lower case 12 is in contact with the inner surface of the upper edge wall 115 of the upper case 11. The lower surface of the upper sidewall 114 is higher than the lower surface of the lower plate portion 121. A welding groove 13 is formed at a position between the lower edge of the upper edge wall 115 and the outer surface of the lower edge wall 127. The welding groove 13 is higher than the lower surface of the lower plate portion 121 in the vertical direction.

Finally, welding is performed at the welding groove 13 using a welding process to stably hold the upper case 11 and the lower case 12 together. In some embodiments, the laser spot welding is preferably adopted in the welding process, and the welding spots formed after welding can be in the form of spaced dots or strips, which is within the protection scope of the present invention. In some other embodiments, the outer surfaces of the upper edge wall 115 and the lower edge wall 127 are directly welded from the lateral direction, so as to fix the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12, but both of them may be welded. In addition, in some embodiments, after all the components of the rf switch 100 are assembled, the components are integrally placed on a target circuit board (not shown), and then the components are integrally soldered so that the movable terminal 31 and the fixed terminal 32 are electrically connected to corresponding soldering pads on the circuit board, respectively, and the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12 are soldered at the lower end positions of the lower edge wall 127 and the upper edge wall 115 and are electrically connected to corresponding soldering pads on the circuit board.

In the manufacturing process, the second insulator 22 and the lower shell 12 may be fixed in an assembling manner, besides being integrally injection-molded. When the second insulator 22 and the lower housing 12 are fixed for assembly, the glue injection hole 51 is no longer the injection position of the injection machine, but is used for cooperating and fixing with the glue injection part 52.

Please refer to fig. 9 and 11, after the radio frequency switch 100 is assembled, a dispensing operation needs to be performed, and the upper module and the lower module clamp the movable terminal 31 and the stationary terminal, the first and second vertical arms 312 and 322 respectively form a sol tank 4, the sol tank 4 is formed at the positions of the first and second notches 222 and 223, specifically, the first and second glue limiting portions 218 and 219 at the front and rear ends of the first insulator 21 at least partially surround the front and rear ends of the sol tank 4, and the inner peripheries of the first and second notches 222 and 223 form a stepped portion 2221 and 2231 that is opened downward, so that the opening of the sol tank 4 is larger than the opening at the upper side to facilitate the glue injection and blocking. And the first and second vertical arms 312, 322 are at least partially located in the glue tank 4, when glue is sealed, glue is injected into the glue tank 4 along the inner side, the glue penetrates through the first and second through holes 3121, 3221 of the first and second vertical arms 312, 322 to the upper side of the first and second welding parts 311, 321, namely, the glue penetrates through the lower side of the first and second glue limiting parts 218, 219 on the outer side in the front-back direction, and the glue is scattered and filled in the upper side of the first and second welding parts 311, 321 along the transverse direction after penetrating through the first and second through holes 3121, 3221. The glue has a viscosity such that the flow of glue is such that it fills the glue bath 4 without excessive seepage through the glue bath 4 along the gaps. After injecting glue, the glue is hardened to form a glue block 60 fixed in the glue dissolving tank 4, the existence of the glue block 60 can prevent the first and second welding parts 311 and 321 from climbing tin during welding, specifically, the glue block 60 blocks and wraps the first and second vertical arms 312 and 322, and during welding, the molten solder is blocked by the glue block 60 and cannot climb upwards along the first and second vertical arms 312 and 322, so that the phenomenon that the performance of the product is affected by dirt inside the radio frequency switch 100 due to tin climbing is avoided.

It should be noted that, when dispensing is performed under the condition that the viscosity of the glue is allowed, the radio frequency switch 100 is directly inverted and then a predetermined amount of glue is injected; in other embodiments, the rf switch 100 may be pre-placed in a jig, and the jig seals the front and rear ends of the glue tank 4 and injects glue, so as to reduce the viscosity of the glue.

Referring to fig. 11 to 13, the solid line contact spring arm 315 and the dotted line contact spring arm 315 shown in fig. 11 and 12 are respectively schematic diagrams when the rf switch 100 of the present application is in the initial state and the working state; in the initial state, the contact spring arm 315 is substantially in the horizontal state, and the bottom surface of the support end 3151 is supported on the horizontal surface of the blocking wall 226, and at this time, the end of the support end 3151 is at the position of L1 in the front-rear direction, and the upper surface of the contact spring arm 315 is at the position of H1 in the vertical direction. In an operating state, a probe (not shown) is inserted from the insertion hole 213 from top to bottom and presses the main elastic arm 314 of the movable terminal 31 downward, and the main elastic arm 314 is elastically deformed downward, so that the contact elastic arm 315 is also deformed downward and the supporting end 3151 moves forward to be separated from the contact arm 324. During the downward pressing process of the probe, the elastic part 313 moves downward as a whole, and the supporting end 3151 contacting the elastic arm 315 moves forward a small distance along the horizontal surface of the blocking wall 226 and the inclined surface 227, i.e., the supporting end 3151 moves toward the first welding part 311. At this time, the end of the supporting end 3151 is at the position of L2, the position of L2 is more forward than the position of L1, and the upper surface of the contact elastic arm 315 becomes the upper surface of the thinning portion 3152 of the supporting end 3151 (the inclined surface becomes a horizontal surface), and at this time, the upper surface of the thinning portion 3152 is at the position of H2 in the vertical direction, and the horizontal position of H2 is not higher than the horizontal position of H1. Therefore, in the working state, the relative length of the whole movable terminal in the front-back direction is shorter after being pressed downwards than before being pressed, so that the requirement of miniaturization design of a product is facilitated. When the contact elastic arm 315 is in an operating state, the support end 3151 is provided with the thinning portion 3152, so that the upper surface of the support end 3151 does not exceed the upper surface in the initial state, thereby avoiding a short circuit caused by an excessively small gap with the upper flat plate portion 111 of the upper housing 11 due to the upward tilting of the support end 3151 in the operating state. When the probe is pulled out upwards, the elastic part 313 is shaped and moves upwards to restore the original shape.

As shown in fig. 13, the first clamped portion 316 of the movable terminal 31 is limited in the limiting end 252 of the limiting space 25 in the front-back direction, the surface of the limiting end 252 and the third pressing portion 217 clamp the first clamped portion 316, the third pressing portion 217 is pressed against the upper side of the clamped leg 218, the movable terminal 31 is deformed integrally and generates a forward pushing force during the pressing process of the movable terminal 31, at this time, a hard interference is generated between the limiting end wall 3182 of the clamped leg 318 and the third pressing portion 217, so that the limiting end wall 3182 pierces or scrapes the lower surface of the third pressing portion 217, and a part of the plastic of the third pressing portion 217 sinks into the groove 3181 to prevent the first clamped portion 316 from moving back and forth. At the same time, the stopper end 252 of the stopper space 25 restricts the first gripped part 316 in the front-rear direction. In this way, the clamping force for clamping the first clamped portion 316 between the third upper pressing portion 217 and the upper surface of the second insulator 22 or between the third lower pressing portion 23 or the lower protruding block 24 can be greatly reduced, so as to reduce the internal stress between the first and second insulators 21 and 22, thereby improving the stability of the first and second insulators 21 and 22 in the over-high temperature IR furnace and avoiding the problem of warping caused by the release of the internal stress at high temperature. Meanwhile, the blocking wall 226 and the lateral outer side of the inclined surface 227 are provided with a lower side wall 126 for limiting the contact elastic arm 315, so that the situation that the contact elastic arm 315 shakes is reduced, and the reliability of the contact elastic arm 315 is enhanced.

In another embodiment, the third pressing portion 217 may be provided with a protrusion (not shown) protruding downward at a position corresponding to the groove 3181 to be clamped into the groove 3181 for limiting, and at this time, the limiting end wall 3182 may not need to generate hard interference with the third pressing portion 217.

Referring to fig. 3, 4, 7, and 11, in the radio frequency switch 100 of the present invention, a second boss 2121 is disposed on an outer periphery of the cylindrical portion 212 of the first insulator 21, and a first boss 1121 that is matched with the second boss 2121 is disposed on an inner wall surface of the butt-joint cylindrical portion 112 of the upper housing 11, after injection molding, the first boss 1121 and the second boss 2121 are attached to each other and fixed, so that a coupling force between the cylindrical portion 212 of the first insulator 21 and the butt-joint cylindrical portion 112 of the upper housing 11 can be enhanced, and the first insulator 21 is prevented from being detached from the upper housing 11 downward.

The second insulator 22 is attached to the upper surface of the lower case 12 to be rigidly supported by the lower case 12, thereby increasing the strength of the second insulator 22. Meanwhile, the lateral outer sides of the front and rear ends of the second insulator 22 are provided with outer edge side portions 29, and the corresponding position of the lower shell 12 is provided with a holding concave portion 128, after molding, the holding concave portion 128 is pressed and held above the outer edge side portions 29; a combination block 71 is formed by protruding the middle of the pair of outer edge sides 29 of the second insulator 22 along the lateral outer side, a protruding portion 129 for combining and supporting the combination block 71 is formed between the pair of lower edge walls 127 of the lower shell 12, and the groove structures 72 at the bottoms of the opposite sides of the pair of lower edge walls 127 are filled with the combination block 71 so as to increase the combining force between the second insulator 22 and the lower shell 12. An annular inclined surface 511 is formed at the bottom of the glue injection hole 51 penetrating the lower case 12, and the glue injection part 52 filled in the glue injection hole 51 is filled with the annular inclined surface 511 at the lower side to form an annular covering part 521, so that the second insulator 12 is tightly combined with the lower case 12 without being separated. Therefore, up to 7 buckling points are formed between the second insulator 22 and the lower shell 12, so that the second insulator 22 is firmly attached to the lower shell 12, and the deformation of the second insulator 22 when passing through a high-temperature IR furnace is reduced to the minimum so as not to cause poor products.

The bottom surface of the lower housing 12 is formed with first and second thin plate portions 123, 125 inside the first and second notches 222, 223, and the first and second thin plate portions 123, 125 can increase the supporting surface for supporting the second insulator 22, and the front and rear side surfaces are covered by the glue block 60 to avoid the conductive terminals 30 after being filled. And the bottom surface of the lower plate portion 121 of the lower case 12 is directly soldered to a target circuit board as a solder fillet.
