DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described below.

As a solder alloy containing no lead (Pb), the present inventor made an alloy containing various metals and examined its characteristics. As a result, tin (Sn), bismuth (Bi), and indium (In) were added. A conventional solder containing lead (hereinafter, referred to as a solder alloy containing tin), a solder alloy containing tin (Sn), silver (Ag), and bismuth (Bi).
(Referred to as leaded solder).

Therefore, the present inventor focused on a solder alloy containing Sn, Bi, and In and a solder alloy containing Sn, Ag, and Bi, and changed the content of each composition material to obtain a solder alloy. S showing good properties as a material
A test for determining the composition ratio of n, Bi, and In and the composition ratio of Sn, Ag, and Bi was performed. In addition, Sn, B
A test was conducted to prepare a solder alloy to which other metal elements or non-metal elements were added in addition to i and In, and to examine its characteristics.

First, the solder alloy composed of Sn, Bi, and In will be described.

FIGS. 1 and 2 show test results obtained by testing the solder alloy containing Sn, Bi and In for tensile strength, elongation, rupture time, fracture surface shape and melting point, respectively. I have. FIG. 3 shows a test obtained by testing the tensile strength, elongation, rupture time, fracture surface shape, and melting point of a solder alloy obtained by adding other metal elements or nonmetal elements to Sn, Bi, and In. The results are shown.

Here, a test method and a test apparatus performed by the inventor will be described.

In the test, test pieces made of solder alloys having various composition ratios were prepared, and the test pieces were subjected to a tensile test to obtain tensile strength, elongation, rupture time, Test each item of the fracture surface shape,
The melting point was measured using a thermocouple.

As the shape of the test piece, a JIS No. 7 test piece (cross-sectional area: 40 mm 2, gauge length: 30 mm) is applied. As a method of preparing the test piece, various metals such as Sn, Bi, In and others are used. A metal element or a nonmetal element was blended in a weight ratio, and the mixture was heated and melted in an electric furnace (400 ° C.) and cast in a mold.

As a tensile tester, a model 4206 made by Instron (tensile speed: 0.5 mm / min) was used, and a test piece cast as described above was mounted thereon. Was measured, and the fracture surface shape of the test piece after the fracture was observed.

When measuring the melting point, solder alloys of various composition ratios are heated and melted in an electric furnace (400 ° C.), a thermocouple is inserted, and the melting point (liquid phase) is measured by allowing the temperature profile to be measured while cooling. Line).

In each of the test results shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the rightmost column of the judgment column comprehensively judged the characteristics of tensile strength, elongation, rupture time, fracture surface shape, and melting point. The results are shown. In the case where the solder material can be applied as a solder material (in the case of passing the standard), a mark “○” is given.

In this test, the criteria that can be applied as a solder material are as follows: (1) When the tensile strength is 2 kg / mm2 or more,
(2) The elongation is 30% or more and (3) the melting point is 155 ° C or less. This criterion is equal to or better than that of a conventional leaded solder as a solder material.

Next, the test results obtained by the above-described test method and test apparatus will be considered.

FIG. 1 shows that the Bi content of the Sn—Bi—In ternary eutectic solder alloy was set to be as constant as possible, and that the amount of In added was changed. The characteristics are shown.

From the figure, it is found that the tensile strength satisfies the reference value when the amount of In added is less than 50% by weight, but exceeds the reference value when the amount exceeds 50% by weight as in Comparative Examples 3 and 4. Value will not be satisfied.

As for the elongation, the reference value is not satisfied when the amount of In is less than 0.5% by weight as in Comparative Examples 1 and 2, but the reference value is satisfied when the addition amount is 0.5% by weight or more. . Further, the melting point satisfies the reference value in all the test examples shown in FIG. In the conventional leaded solder, the composition of the leaded solder has been performed with the limit of the heat resistance temperature of the material to be joined (for example, an electronic component or the like) to be soldered set to about 183 ° C.

However, in the case of a solder alloy containing Sn, Bi, and In, the melting point (that is, the liquidus temperature) is low, so that soldering can be performed at a lower temperature than the conventional leaded solder. Damage to the material to be bonded can be reduced, preprocessing of the material to be bonded can be simplified, and the cost of the material constituting the electronic component can be reduced.

From the test results shown in FIG. 1, the melting point tends to decrease as the added amount of In increases. Therefore, the melting point of the solder alloy can be controlled by adjusting the added amount of In. It is. Therefore, even in a case where the joining temperature (for example, a semiconductor device) is diversified as in recent years and the soldering temperature is restricted, it is possible to sufficiently cope with this.

When focusing on the rupture time, Comparative Examples 1 and 2
When the addition amount of In is less than 0.5% by weight as in Comparative Example 3, and when the addition amount of In exceeds 50% by weight as in Comparative Example 3, the rupture time is short and the durability is poor. . However, as shown in Comparative Example 4, even when the amount of In exceeds 50% by weight, the rupture time is within the range of an appropriate value (about 40 min to 60 min). Is Bi
It is considered that the rupture time was prolonged because the amount of addition of the metal was 0 (zero).

When attention is paid to the fracture surface shape, brittle fracture occurs when the amount of In added is 5.0% by weight or less, and ductile fracture occurs when the amount of In exceeds 5.0% by weight. Although this fracture surface shape does not particularly affect the properties of the solder alloy, in terms of mechanical strength, the fracture surface shape is more desirably ductile than brittle.

The above considerations can be summarized from the test results of FIG. 1 when In is added to Sn—Bi eutectic solder alloy in an amount of 0.5% by weight or more and less than 50.0% by weight (Example 1 in FIG. 1). -1 to 1-5), a solder alloy having characteristics suitable as a solder material can be obtained.

In Example 1-5, the tensile strength was satisfied at a value slightly higher than the reference value, but the elongation was greatly improved as compared with the other comparative examples and examples. Therefore, the composition ratio of the solder alloy is set to Sn: about 34.0% by weight, Bi: about 46.0% by weight, In: about 26.0% by weight.
By setting it to 0.0% by weight, it is possible to obtain a solder alloy having an extremely good elongation rate, and particularly to soldering of a portion where a large bending is applied to a solder connection position, such as soldering on a flexible substrate which is flexibly displaced. A great effect can be expected when used.

The composition ratio of Sn, Bi, and In is approximately
The reason why they are set to 34.0% by weight, about 46.0% by weight, and about 20.0% by weight is to include a slight measurement error at the time of preparing the solder alloy (test piece). Is estimated to include an error of ± 1 weight percent for Sn and Bi and ± 0.1 weight percent for In. Therefore, this error is indicated by the word “about”. The same applies to claim 4.

Next, the results of a test performed by the present inventors will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 shows various characteristics of the solder alloy in which the content of In is set to be as constant as possible with respect to the Sn-Bi-In ternary eutectic solder alloy, and the amount of added Bi is changed. ing.

As shown in the figure, the tensile strength satisfies the reference value when the amount of added Bi exceeds 5.0% by weight, but as shown in Comparative Examples 10 and 11, the amount of added Bi is
If the content is less than 5.0% by weight, the standard value will not be satisfied.

As for the elongation, Comparative Examples 12 to 1
The reference value is not satisfied when the amount of Bi added is 60.0% by weight or more, as in 5, but is satisfied when the amount of Bi is less than 60.0% by weight. Furthermore, at the melting point,
Except for Bi 100% shown in Example 15, all the test examples shown in FIG. Therefore, the test results shown in FIG. 2 also demonstrate that the melting point (that is, the liquidus temperature) of the solder alloy containing Sn, Bi, and In can be reduced.

From the test results shown in FIG. 2, the melting point tends to increase as the amount of added Bi increases. Therefore, the melting point of the solder alloy can be controlled by adjusting the amount of added Bi. It is possible.

When focusing on the rupture time, Comparative Example 10,
In the case where the amount of Bi added is 5.0% by weight or less as in Example 11, and the amount of Bi added is 6 as in Comparative Examples 12 to 15.
When the content is 0.0% by weight or more, it can be seen that the breaking time is short and the durability is inferior. Further, focusing on the fracture surface shape, when the amount of Bi added is less than 55.0% by weight, ductile fracture occurs, and when the amount of Bi added is 55.0% by weight or more, brittle fracture occurs. Summarizing the above considerations from the test results in FIG. 2, Bi exceeds 5.0% by weight with respect to the Sn—In eutectic solder alloy, and
When less than 0.0% by weight is added (Examples 2-1 and 2-2 in FIG. 2), a solder alloy having characteristics suitable as a solder material can be obtained.

Further, judging comprehensively from the test results shown in FIG. 1 and the test results shown in FIG. 2, the composition ratio of the solder alloy having characteristics suitable as the solder material is such that the Bi content is 60.0% by weight. , The content of In not more than 50.0% by weight, and the remaining amount of Sn.

Further, the composition of the solder alloy having a good judgment value both when the content of In is changed as shown in FIG. 1 and when the content of Bi is changed as shown in FIG. 2 The ratio is Sn: about 40.0 weight percent, Bi:
About 55.0% by weight, In: about 5.0% by weight. Therefore, the best solder characteristics can be obtained by setting the composition ratio of the solder alloy as described above.

In the above composition ratios of Sn, Bi, and In, the value of each composition ratio is given the word "about".
When the solder alloy (test piece) is prepared, it is estimated that an error of ± 1% by weight for Sn and Bi and ± 0.1% by weight of In is included. The same applies to claim 3.

Next, the results of a test performed by the present inventors will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 shows a result of preparing a solder alloy in which a metal element other than Sn, Bi, and In is added to a Sn-Bi-In ternary eutectic solder alloy, and testing its characteristics. FIG. 3 shows an example in which silver (Ag) and zinc (Zn) are used as added metals.

When Ag and Zn were added to the Sn—Bi—In ternary eutectic solder alloy, as shown in Comparative Examples 21 and 22, the amount of Ag and Zn added was 5.0% by weight or more. At times, the elongation does not satisfy the reference value. However, when the added amount of Ag and Zn is 1.0% by weight or more, the elongation satisfies the reference value.

Further, the melting point satisfies the reference value in all the experimental examples shown in the same figure. Therefore, the experimental results shown in FIG. 3 show that the Sn, Bi, and In ternary eutectic solder alloys have Ag, Zn. It is demonstrated that the melting point (that is, the liquidus temperature) can be reduced even in a solder alloy having a structure in which is added.

Therefore, as shown in Examples 3-1 and 3-2, the solder alloys having the composition ratios of Ag and Zn of 1.0 or more and less than 5.0 satisfy the reference values in all the test items. Satisfy. 3, the contents of Bi and In satisfy the values obtained by comprehensively judging the test results of FIG. 1 and the test results of FIG. That is, the content of Bi is not more than 60.0% by weight, and the content of In is not more than 50.0% by weight. From the experimental results of FIG. 3, the above considerations can be summarized as follows: Bi has a content not exceeding 60.0% by weight, In has a content not exceeding 50.0% by weight, and Ag or Zn has a content of 1.0% or more and less than 5.0% by weight. , And a composition in which the remaining amount is Sn, a solder alloy having characteristics suitable as a solder material can be obtained.

In the test shown in FIG. 3, Sn-B
Although an example in which Ag and Zn are applied as a metal material to be added to the i-In ternary eutectic solder alloy has been described, a metal element such as germanium (Ge) and gallium (Ga) is added instead of Ag and Zn. And the non-metallic element phosphorus (P)
, The characteristics similar to those shown in FIG. 3 can be obtained.

Further, in the test shown in FIG.
Antimony (Sb) may be added as a metal material to the i-In ternary eutectic solder alloy. By adding Sb, an operation and an effect of preventing diffusion to Sn-Pb plating occur. When Pb and Bi are in contact with each other, the metal crystal swells and peels due to the diffusion, and the connection strength with the component is significantly deteriorated. The fact that such diffusion can be prevented by adding Sb is extremely advantageous in terms of the reliability of component bonding. The amount of Sb to be added is 1.0 to 5.
It is desirable to be within the range of 0 weight percent, and the range is determined in consideration of tensile strength and elongation.

Next, a solder alloy composed of Sn, Ag, and Bi will be described.

FIG. 4 shows the test results obtained by testing the solder alloy containing Sn, Ag, and Bi for tensile strength, elongation, rupture time, fracture surface shape, and melting point. The test method and test apparatus performed by the present inventor when obtaining the experimental results shown in FIG. 4 are the same as the test method and test apparatus performed when obtaining the experimental results shown in FIGS. Since they are the same (as described above), description thereof will be omitted.

Similarly to the test results shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, also in FIG. 4, the judgment columns in the rightmost column indicate tensile strength, elongation, rupture time, fracture surface shape, and melting point, respectively. Are shown as a result of comprehensively judging the characteristics of the above. In the case where the material can be applied as a solder material (in the case of passing the standard), a mark “○” is given, and in the case of failing the standard, a mark × is given.

Further, in this test, the criteria applicable as a solder material include (1) a tensile strength of 7 kg / mm 2 or more, (2) an elongation of 7.0% or more, and (3) a melting point of 220 ° C.
It has been decided that: This criterion is based on the aforementioned Sn, B
The value is different from the standard of the solder material composed of i and In.

This is due to the recent diversification of electronic devices,
Although a solder material does not require a high elongation rate, there is a need for a property having a high tensile strength, and a solder alloy composed of Sn, Ag, and Bi described below aims to meet such requirements. This is because it was created as

Consider the test results of FIG.

FIG. 4 shows that each of the Sn—Ag—Bi ternary eutectic solder alloys had the Ag content set as constant as possible, and the Bi addition amount was changed. The characteristics are shown.

As can be seen from the figure, regarding the tensile strength, Sn, A
g and Bi are the same as in Examples 4-1 to 4-1.
It can be seen that the reference value was satisfied in each alloy composition indicated by -6. However, Comparative Example 30, which is a leaded solder,
Comparative Example 31, which is a binary eutectic solder alloy of Sn and Bi,
And Comparative Example 3 which is a binary eutectic solder alloy of Sn and Ag
The tensile strength characteristics of No. 2 are lower than those of the solder alloy composed of Sn, Ag, and Bi, and do not satisfy the reference values.

Further, the elongation percentage satisfies the reference value in all the test examples shown in FIG. It is known that the elongation rate and the tensile strength exhibit contradictory characteristics, and the better the tensile strength property, the lower the elongation rate. As described above, the solder alloy composed of Sn, Ag, and Bi is intended to obtain particularly high tensile strength characteristics, and thus Examples 4-1 to 4-6 have high tensile strength characteristics. On the other hand, with respect to the elongation, Comparative Examples 30 to 32
Is low. Furthermore, at the melting point,
The reference values are satisfied in all the test examples shown in FIG. In particular, Examples 4-1 to 4-6 have a melting point in the range of 139 ° C to 220 ° C. In the conventional leaded solder, the composition of the leaded solder has been performed with the limit of the heat resistance temperature of the material to be joined (for example, an electronic component or the like) to be soldered set to about 183 ° C. However, at present, the melting point of the solder is adjusted by adding a third substance to a leaded solder made of Sn-Pb.
Solders with a temperature of over ℃ are also sold. Therefore,
By appropriately selecting Examples 4-1 to 4-6 having a melting point in the range of 220 ° C., it becomes possible to select and use a solder alloy having good tensile strength characteristics according to the purpose.

When attention is paid to the rupture time, since the rupture time is proportional to the elongation, the rupture time characteristics of Examples 4-1 to 4-6 are lower than those of Comparative Examples 30 to 32. However, as described above, Examples 4-1 to 4-6 have good tensile strength characteristics, and the range of rupture time is about 230 sec to 67
This value is not particularly problematic in mounting using a solder alloy at 0 sec.

Further, when attention is paid to the fracture surface shape, ductile fracture is more desirable than brittle fracture in terms of mechanical strength, but as described above, the solder composed of Sn, Ag, and Bi is used. Since the purpose of the alloy is to obtain high tensile strength characteristics, there is no particular problem even if the fracture surface shape is brittle as shown in Examples 4-1 to 4-6.

The test results shown in FIG. 4 are summarized in Example 4-1.
The solder alloys composed of Sn, Ag, and Bi shown in Nos. 4 to 6 obtain extremely good tensile strength characteristics with respect to the eutectic solder alloys having other compositions shown in Examples 30 to 32. Can be. Regarding the melting point, various values can be set within the temperature range conventionally used for soldering. Therefore, the degree of freedom in selecting the soldering temperature can be improved in accordance with the characteristics of the member to be soldered, and a soldering process having a high tensile strength can be performed. Further, Sn, A shown in Examples 4-1 to 4-6.
When the composition ratio of g, Bi is quantitatively analyzed, Sn, Ag,
As for the composition ratio of each component of Bi, when the value of the constant X is 0 ≦ X <100, the Sn content is 96.5 × (100−X) / 100% by weight, and the Ag content is 3.5 × (100− X) / 100 weight percent, the Bi content can be expressed as X weight percent. Therefore, by appropriately selecting the value of the constant X, a solder alloy having a melting point suitable for the characteristics of the member to be soldered and having a high tensile strength can be obtained.

The inventor of the present invention has noticed that, in the experimental results shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, an embodiment in which the value of the elongation rate is abnormally large with respect to the other embodiments occurs. An experiment was conducted to determine the cause of the occurrence of a solder alloy having an abnormally large value of the rate.

Here, the embodiment in which the value of the elongation is abnormally large refers to the embodiment 1-5 in FIG. 1 and the embodiment 3- in FIG.
2, Example 4-1 in FIG. In addition to the experimental results shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 described above,
In various experiments conducted by the present inventors, it was found that a rapid increase in elongation was frequently observed in a solder alloy containing Sn and Bi.

First, the inventor of the present invention considered that the reason for the occurrence of an embodiment in which the value of the elongation is extraordinarily large as compared with the other embodiments as described above is the mixing of impurities.

The present inventor prepared a test piece using a solder alloy of Sn and Bi by the same preparation method as described above, and measured the elongation. Component analysis. As the analysis method, X-ray fluorescence analysis (using SFT7355 manufactured by SEIKO INSTRUMENTS) and induction plasma emission spectroscopy (ICP) were used in combination.

As a result, it was found that the components of the test piece having an abnormal elongation were Sn and Bi only, and no impurity (third element) was mixed.

Next, the inventor of the present invention considered the reason why the elongation rate was increased due to the difference in the conditions for preparing the test pieces. Specifically, attention was paid to the cooling state when a solder alloy containing Sn and Bi was cast in a mold, and the method of cooling (cooling rate) was variously changed to conduct an experiment for examining the characteristics of the prepared test piece. went. Hereinafter, the experimental results will be described.

FIG. 11 shows the mechanical properties (tensile strength, elongation, rupture time, fracture surface shape) and material properties (surface state, metallographic state) of each specimen when the cooling rate of the specimen was varied. 3) shows the experimental results of the examination. In this experiment, Sn-containing test pieces having a Sn content of 42.0% by weight and a Bi content of 58.0% by weight were used.
Bi binary eutectic solder alloy was used.

Further, in this experiment, three types of cooling conditions were set: natural cooling, water cooling (forced cooling), and slow cooling. Here, the natural cooling is a method in which the molten solder alloy is filled in a mold and then left standing in an ambient temperature atmosphere to cool it (Example 5-1 to Example 5-3). Water cooling is a method in which a mold is filled with a solder alloy and then the mold is forcibly cooled with water (Example 5-4). Further, the slow cooling is a method of filling a mold with a solder alloy and then putting the mold in a heat insulating material to gradually cool the mold (Example 5-5).

By adopting each of the above cooling methods,
The cooling rate of the molten solder alloy can be changed. Furthermore, in natural cooling, the temperature of the mold is set to 200 ° C.
(Example 5-1), 100 ° C. (Example 5-2) and 25 ° C. (Example 5-3), and the same cooling method was adopted by pouring the molten solder alloy. An experiment was also conducted in which the cooling rate was changed while changing the cooling rate.

The mechanical properties of the embodiment 5-1 to the embodiment 5-5 shown in FIG. 11 are not the results of experiments using a single test piece, but are based on the viewpoint of reducing the effects of variations and disturbances. The figure shows the average value of the results of an experiment in which three sample test pieces were prepared and the mechanical properties were determined for each of them.

The experimental results shown in FIG.
25 to FIG. 25 are summarized. Hereinafter, the relationship between the cooling conditions and the mechanical properties of the solder alloy will be considered based on the experimental results shown in FIG.

First, Examples 5-1 and 5-4 and Example 5
Based on -5, attention is paid to the mechanical characteristics when the cooling rate is changed by changing the cooling conditions (natural cooling, water cooling, slow cooling) when the mold temperature is 200 ° C.

According to the experimental results shown in FIG. 11, the elongation rate is lowest (20.44%) in the case of slow cooling, which is the slowest cooling rate, and then naturally cooled (elongation rate is 33.67%) as the cooling rate increases.
%) And water cooling (89.48%). Therefore, by comparing the experimental results of Example 5-1, Example 5-4, and Example 5-5, it is found that the elongation rate increases as the cooling rate increases.

Next, based on Examples 5-1 to 5-3, the cooling conditions were the same (natural cooling), and the mechanical characteristics when the cooling rate was changed by changing the mold temperature were changed. Focus on it.

According to the experimental results shown in FIG. 11, the elongation rate was the lowest when the mold temperature at which the cooling rate was the slowest was 200 ° C. (33.67
%), And then, as the mold temperature decreases, the mold temperature becomes 1
00 ° C (elongation rate 137.50%), mold temperature 25 ° C (elongation rate 21
(8.33%). Therefore, by comparing the experimental results of Example 5-1 to Example 5-3, it can be seen that the elongation rate increases as the cooling rate increases.

Summarizing the above experimental results, it was found that the mechanical properties of the solder alloy changed according to the cooling rate when the composition of the solder alloy was the same, and the elongation increased as the cooling rate increased. did. Accordingly, the higher the cooling rate, the more ductile the fracture surface shape.

Considering the reason why the elongation rate is improved as the cooling rate is higher, the experimental results shown in FIG. 11 show that in Examples 5-2 to 5-4 showing good values of the elongation rates, No scale-like pattern was observed on the surface of the piece (a general Sn42-Bi58 solder alloy that does not quench has a scale-like pattern on the surface). Also, as a result of metallographic observation, Examples 5-2 to Example 5 were performed. In -4, it was found that the Sn tissue was enlarged. Therefore, when estimated from the above-mentioned physical properties, the reason why the elongation rate is improved is considered to be that the Sn tissue is enlarged.

Further, as described above, the rapid increase in elongation rate occurs not only in the solder alloy of Sn and Bi but also in the solder alloy of another composition. It is considered that the rapid increase in the elongation rate also occurred due to the increased cooling rate.

From the experimental results described above, it was found that the higher the cooling rate, the higher the elongation. On the other hand, a solder alloy having a good elongation can be expected to have a great effect when used for soldering a portion where a large bending is applied to a solder connection position, such as soldering, particularly on a flexible substrate that is flexibly displaced. Therefore, by cooling the solder alloy in the soldering process, it becomes possible to perform a soldering process having a good elongation rate, and can withstand a load even when a load is applied to the soldering portion.

Hereinafter, a soldering method and a soldering apparatus based on the above reasons will be described.

FIG. 27 is a process chart showing a case where the soldering method according to one embodiment of the present invention is applied to a soldering process for a printed wiring board. The soldering method according to the present invention is not limited to the soldering process for a printed wiring board, but can be applied to various soldering operations.

In the method of soldering a printed wiring board shown in FIG. 27, first, in step 10, a flux applying step of applying a flux to a soldering position of the printed wiring board is performed. This flux application step is performed to improve the so-called solder wettability, and is selected according to the above-mentioned various solder alloys not containing Pb.

[0125] In the following step 12, a preheating step of preheating the printed wiring board is performed. As described above, by performing preheating on the printed wiring board, it is possible to prevent unevenness of the solder due to partial cooling of the solder alloy.

In the following step 14, a soldering step of arranging a molten solder alloy on the printed wiring board and performing a soldering process is performed. This soldering step is performed, for example, by immersing the printed wiring board in a solder bath in which a solder alloy has been melted. The above-described steps 10 to 14 are steps that are also performed in the conventional method using leaded solder.

In the following step 16, a cooling operation for cooling the soldered portion is performed. This cooling step is a characteristic step of the method of the present invention. By rapidly cooling the solder alloy which has been melted and becomes high temperature in the soldering step of step 14, the elongation rate of the solder alloy is improved as described above. Can be done.

At this time, as a specific method for rapidly cooling the solder alloy, it is conceivable to spray a coolant (for example, a cooling gas or a volatile organic solvent) on the above-mentioned soldered portion. As described above, by using the cooling medium as the cooling means, it is possible to perform local cooling (that is, only for the soldering portion), and the other components and the like provided on the printed wiring board are affected by the cooling. Can be prevented. FIG. 28 shows a soldering apparatus according to one embodiment of the present invention.

The soldering apparatus 20 shown in FIG. 27 corresponds to the soldering method shown in FIG. 27, and is used for soldering a plate-like member (for example, a printed wiring board) as a material to be joined.

Accordingly, in the process of transporting the printed wiring board 26 by the transport conveyor 24, the flux is applied to the soldering position of the printed wiring board 26 by the flux coating device 21, and the preheating device 22 subsequently applies the flux to the printed wiring board 26. A preliminary heating process is performed, and a predetermined soldering process is performed by the subsequent soldering device 23 using the above-described solder alloy not containing Pb.

The printed wiring board 26 subjected to the soldering process as described above is sent to the cooling device 25 by the conveyor 24. The cooling device 25 rapidly cools the solder alloy that has been melted and heated to a high temperature by the soldering device 23. Thereby, the elongation rate of the solder alloy can be improved as described above.

The concrete structure of the cooling device 25 is shown in FIGS.

The cooling gas (nitrogen gas) generated by the vaporizer 28 is supplied to a cooling gas supply pipe 29 to which a cooling gas nozzle 30 is connected, so that the cooling gas is supplied from the cooling gas nozzle 30 to the solder alloy of the printed wiring board 26. It is injected toward the arrangement position. Thereby, the printed wiring board 26
Is rapidly cooled, and the elongation of the solder alloy can be improved.

On the other hand, the cooling device 25B shown in FIG. 30 uses Freon, which is a volatile solvent, as a refrigerant. Freon is filled in a freon tank 31.
The Freon tank 31 has a Freon injection nozzle 30
Is connected to the freon supply pipe 33.

The Freon in the Freon tank 31 flows out to the Freon supply pipe 33. As described above, Freon is a volatile solvent and is vaporized to generate low-temperature Freon gas. This low-temperature freon gas is jetted from the freon jet nozzle 30 through the freon supply pipe 33 toward the solder alloy mounting position of the printed wiring board 26. Thereby, the solder alloy provided on the printed wiring board 26 is rapidly cooled, and the elongation rate of the solder alloy can be improved.

Further, the cooling device 25C shown in FIG. 31 is configured to perform a cooling process on the tubular material to be joined (the pipe material 34 in this embodiment) using the cooling device 25A shown in FIG. It is a thing. Note that the same components as those shown in FIG. 29 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted.

As shown, when the Sn-Bi eutectic solder 39 is melted using a soldering iron 38 and soldered to the pipe material 34, the pipe material 34 is cooled by the cooling pipe of the cooling device 25C. 37. As described above, since the cooling gas nozzle 35 having the plurality of injection ports 36 for injecting the cooling gas (inward) is provided in the cooling pipe 37, the soldered portion of the pipe material 34 is Is cooled by the cooling gas nozzle 35.

As described above, according to the cooling device 25C, even if the material to be joined is the pipe material 34 having a tubular shape,
The arrangement position of the solder alloy can be uniformly cooled, and a soldering process having uniform elongation characteristics can be performed.

The structure of the cooling device 25 is shown in FIGS.
The configuration is not limited to the configuration shown in FIG. 1, and various types of cooling devices can be applied.
