Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method of manufacturing RF slip rings particularly of the co-axial type.
  • Such RF slip rings comprise an outer ring having a pair of parallel grooves formed on the peripheral surface thereof and provided with a noble metal coating extending within the grooves, and an inner core ring having a groove formed in the periphery thereof and also provided with a noble metal coating extending within the groove, sets of brushes engaging in the grooves in the outer and inner ring members.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a method of manufacturing an RF slip ring having an outer ring of plastics material, wherein the plastics material is capable of receiving an electro-less plating which adheres to and is retained effectively on the plastics material.
  • an RF slip ring including the steps of forming an outer ring of plastics material consisting of an epoxy resin containing an alkali filler, e.g. calcium carbonate, machining the ring to expose particles of the alkali filler on at least the outer peripheral surface of the ring, immersing the plastics ring in an etchant containing acid, e.g. hydrochloric acid, such that a reaction occurs between the alkali filler and the acid etchant to cause the peripheral surface of the ring to become pitted, and subjecting the pitted surface of the ring to an electro-less plating step such that the plating keys to the pitted surface of the ring.
  • an etchant containing acid e.g. hydrochloric acid
  • the outer ring of the RF slip ring is formed in two halves each having a semi-circular recess and formed of an alkali-filled epoxy resin.
  • the filler is calcium carbonate ⁇ CaC0 3 ).
  • the peripheral surface of the outer ring is provided with a pair of parallel V-grooves, formed one in each half of the outer ring and the copper/gold coating is required to extend within the grooves.
  • the two halves of the outer ring are machined to expose particles of the calcium carbonate filler.
  • the two halves of the outer ring are then immersed in an etchant preferably comprising 10% hydrochloric acid (HC1) solution with 596 hydrogen peroxide (H 2 0 2 ) added to increase the efficiency.
  • HC1 hydrochloric acid
  • H 2 0 2 hydrogen peroxide
  • the result of the reaction is that a micro pitted surface is formed on the plastics material, the pitting of the surface providing an excellent keying for the electro-less plating material.
  • the two halves are subjected to an electro-less plating operation in which a layer of copper is deposited on the pitted surface, the copper keying to the plastics material by virtue of the micro pitted surface.
  • a layer of a noble metal, e.g. gold is deposited on the copper plating and is deposited on the inner surface of the outer ring, the exposed portion between the two halves of the ring, the outer peripheral surface and the V-shaped grooves formed in the peripheral surface.
  • a support bung is embedded in the plastics material of the outer ring and extends within the circular air space dielectric formed by the semi-circular recess of the two halves of the outer ring.
  • a support wire is carried by the support bung and contacts the base of the inner core ring which is of square cross section.
  • the inner core ring is of square cross section and provided with the copper/gold plating of the outer ring and a V-groove.
  • any suitable alkali filler material may be used provided the filler is capable of supporting a violent reaction with the acid of the etchant sufficient to effect micro pitting of the surface of the epoxy resin to provide for keying of the electro-less plating to the plastics material.
