Description

  The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a rotary electronic component such as a semi-fixed variable resistor.

  Conventionally, among chip-type semi-fixed variable resistors, for example, as shown in Patent Document 1, adjustment of the resistance value of a semi-fixed variable resistor mounted on a mounting substrate is performed on the side opposite to the mounting surface of the mounting substrate. There is a back-side adjustable semi-fixed variable resistor from the back side. FIG. 9 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a back-adjustable semi-fixed variable resistor 500 used for this type of application. The semi-fixed variable resistor 500 includes a ceramic substrate 510, a slider 530 installed on the substrate 510, and a terminal plate 550 installed on the opposite surface of the substrate 510 to which the slider 530 is attached. And a rotating shaft 570 having a head portion 571 and a shaft portion 573 protruding from the head portion 571, and the shaft portion 573 of the rotating shaft 570 is provided in the insertion hole 551 provided in the terminal plate 550 and the substrate 510. The sliding hole 511 and the shaft support hole 531 provided in the slider 530 are inserted and caulked at the tip, and the slider 530 and the rotating shaft 570 are rotated together. The semi-fixed variable resistor 500 is mounted on, for example, the printed wiring board 600, and a driver or the like is provided in a groove 575 provided in the head 571 of the rotating shaft 570 exposed from the adjustment opening 610 provided in the printed wiring board 600. By engaging an adjustment jig (not shown), the rotation shaft 570 and the slider 530 are rotated together, thereby adjusting the resistance value of the semi-fixed variable resistor 500.

  On the other hand, among conventional chip-type semi-fixed variable resistors, a double-sided adjustable type semi-fixed variable resistor that can adjust the resistance value of the semi-fixed variable resistor mounted on the mounting board from both sides of the mounting surface of the mounting board. There is also a fixed variable resistor. FIG. 10 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a double-sided adjustable semi-fixed variable resistor 500-2 used for this type of application. In the figure, the same or corresponding parts as those of the semi-fixed variable resistor 500 shown in FIG. The semi-fixed variable resistor 500-2 is different from the semi-fixed variable resistor 500 only in the structure of the slider 530. That is, in the case of this slider 530, a groove 533 is provided so that an adjustment jig such as a driver can be engaged and adjusted from the front side of the slider 530 (the mounting surface side of the mounting substrate 600). . If comprised in this way, since resistance value can be adjusted from any of a back surface and a front surface, it is suitable. However, in the case of this semi-fixed variable resistor 500-2, since it is necessary to provide the groove 533 for adjusting jig engagement in the slider 530, in order to obtain the depth and strength of the groove 533 for that purpose, the slider The thickness of 530 must be increased, which increases the thickness of the entire semi-fixed variable resistor 500-2. Therefore, conventionally, the back surface adjustment type semi-fixed variable resistor 500 and the double-sided adjustment type semi-fixed variable resistor 500-2 are used properly depending on the application.

However, if the structure of the slider used for the back-side adjustable type and double-sided adjustable type semi-fixed variable resistors is different as described above, separate molds are used to manufacture each slider, and separate manufactures are made. Both have to be manufactured in a process, and the manufacturing process becomes complicated accordingly, and there is a problem that the manufacturing cost cannot be reduced.

A plate storage portion 23 is provided. The terminal plate storage portion 23 has an outer shape substantially the same as the outer shape of the terminal plate 60 and has a depth substantially the same as the thickness of the terminal plate 60.

  7A and 7B are diagrams showing the terminal plate 60, FIG. 7A being a plan view, and FIG. 7B being a side sectional view (cross-sectional view taken along line EE in FIG. 7A). As shown in FIGS. 7, 4, and 5, the terminal plate 60 is formed of a single metal plate (such as a tin-plated iron plate), and has a substantially rectangular connection portion from one side of the outer periphery of the substantially rectangular base portion 61. 71 is protruded. A substantially circular insertion hole 63 penetrating vertically is provided inside (center) of the base 61. From the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole 63, four small locking projections 65 projecting toward the center of the insertion hole 63 are provided at equal intervals. Further, around the insertion hole 63 of the base portion 61, a resilient portion 67 is provided for projecting the head 91 of the rotating shaft 90 described below in a direction to separate it from the substrate 10. The elastic portion 67 is curved and deformed so as to protrude in a direction away from the substrate 10, and in this embodiment, the curved shape is a part of the outer peripheral curved surface of the cylinder. On the other hand, the connection portion 71 has its lower surface slightly lower than the lower surface of the base portion 61 to make the lower surface a contact portion 73, and the tip end side of the connection portion 71 is bent upward to facilitate soldering. A tip bending portion 75 is provided.

  As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the rotation shaft 90 is made of metal (made of brass or the like), and includes a head portion 91 and a shaft portion 97 protruding from the center of one surface of the head portion 91. It is configured. The head 91 is substantially disk-shaped and has a diameter larger than the diameter of the shaft portion 97, and the back surface jig engaging portion formed of a linear groove on the opposite surface protruding from the shaft portion 97. 99 is provided. The shaft portion 97 has a columnar shape, and a circular concave portion is provided at the center of the tip surface thereof, so that the surrounding portion is a cylindrical bent portion 101.

  In order to assemble the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1, the terminal plate 60 is first installed at a predetermined position in FIG. 5, and the terminal plate 60 is rotated from the surface side where the projecting portion 67 protrudes into the insertion hole 63. The shaft portion 97 of the moving shaft 90 is inserted. At this time, the outer peripheral surface of the shaft portion 97 is locked (temporarily fixed) to the locking portion 65 (see FIG. 7A) of the insertion hole 63, and therefore does not fall out of the insertion hole 63. Next, the board | substrate 10 and the slider 40 are mounted on the surface on the opposite side where the elastic part 67 of the terminal board 60 protrudes. At this time, the terminal plate 60 is accommodated in the terminal plate accommodating portion 23 of the substrate 10, and the shaft portion 97 of the rotating shaft 90 is inserted into the locking hole 21 of the substrate 10 and the shaft support hole 45 of the slider 40 to penetrate therethrough. To do. When the bent portion 101 at the tip of the shaft portion 97 is crimped so as to spread outward, the double-sided adjustable semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1 shown in FIG. 4 is completed. Since the outer periphery of the bent portion 101 of the shaft portion 97 crimped at this time is deformed into a substantially rectangular shape in accordance with the shape of the rectangular shaft support hole 45 of the slider 40, the rotating shaft 90 and the slider 40-1 are deformed. Is fixed integrally in the radial direction, and both rotate reliably. Moreover, the slider 40-1 is always pressed against the substrate 10 side by the head 91 of the rotating shaft 90 being ejected by the resilient portion 67, and accordingly, the lower surface of the projecting portion 43 of the slider 40-1. The slidable contact portion 44 contacts the slidable contact pattern 17 of the substrate 10 in a ring shape in a state of being always pressed, and no contact failure occurs between the two.

  4A, the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1 is placed on various mounting boards 200 such as a printed wiring board, and the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1 is connected to the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1. The three terminal patterns 15, 15, and 19 provided are in contact with three terminal connection patterns 201 (only one is shown in FIG. 4A) formed on the mounting substrate 200, and at the same time, contact portions of the terminal plate 60. 73 is brought into contact with one terminal fixing pattern 203 formed on the mounting substrate 200, and at the same time, the head portion 91 of the rotation shaft 90 is inserted into the opening 205 penetrating vertically on the mounting substrate 200. If the terminal patterns 15, 15, 19 and the terminal connection patterns 201 respectively connected thereto and between the terminal plate 60 and the terminal fixing pattern 203 are electrically and mechanically fixed by solder or the like, a semi-fixed variable resistor The implementation of 1-1 is completed.

  Then, an adjustment jig such as a screwdriver is provided on the front jig engaging portion 59 of the slider 40-1 on the front side of the mounting board 200 (the side on which the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1 is attached) from the upper surface side. When the slider 40-1 is rotated by engaging 250 (see FIG. 4B), the sliding contact portion 49 of the slider 40-1 slides on the sliding contact pattern 13. At this time, the slidable contact portion 44 of the slider 40 is slidably contacted on the slidable contact pattern 17 so that they are always in contact with each other. The resistance value changes. On the other hand, adjustment of a screwdriver etc. is carried out to the back surface jig engaging part 99 of the rotating shaft 90 exposed to this back side from the back side (the opposite surface side which attached the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1) of the mounting substrate 200. When the jig 270 (see FIG. 4C) is engaged and the rotating shaft 90 is rotated, the slider 40 rotates integrally therewith, and the sliding contact portion 49 slides on the sliding contact pattern 13. Touch. This also allows the resistance value of the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1 to be changed. In other words, the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1 is a double-sided adjustable type (rear adjustment type / front adjustment type) semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1 whose resistance value can be adjusted from the front side or the back side.

  FIG. 8 is a view showing a back adjustment type semi-fixed variable resistor 1-2 assembled using the slider 40-2 shown in FIG. 2B, and FIG. 8A is a schematic side sectional view. FIG. 8B is a plan view and FIG. 8C is a back view. However, FIG. 8B shows a state where the bent portion 101 of the rotating shaft 90 is not bent. In this semi-fixed variable resistor 1-2, the same or corresponding parts as those of the double-sided adjustable semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1 shown in FIG. Note that matters other than those described below are the same as those of the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1. This semi-fixed variable resistor 1-2 is different from the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1 only in the shape of the slider 40-2, and the shape, structure, and manufacturing method of the other components are all the same. It is. That is, the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-2 also uses the same substrate 10, terminal plate 60, and rotating shaft 90 as the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-1, and only the slider 40-2 is different. is there.

  In the case of this semi-fixed variable resistor 1-2, as shown by a dotted line in FIG. 8A, it is placed on various mounting boards 200 such as a printed wiring board, for example, and three terminal patterns 15, 15, 19 is connected and fixed to three terminal connection patterns 201 (only one is shown in FIG. 8A) by soldering or the like, and at the same time, the contact portion 73 of the terminal plate 60 is connected and fixed to the terminal fixing pattern 203 by soldering or the like. . At the same time, the head 91 of the rotation shaft 90 is inserted into the opening 205 provided in the mounting substrate 200.

  In the case of this semi-fixed variable resistor 1-2, the resistance value cannot be adjusted from the front side of the mounting substrate 200 (the surface side to which the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-2 is attached) (strictly speaking, the concave portion 51). Therefore, it is not impossible to rotate the slider 40 by engaging the adjusting jig with the recess 51. However, since the depth of the recess 51 is shallow, the sliding is performed using only the recess 51 in terms of strength. It is desirable to avoid turning the child 40), and an adjustment jig 250 such as a screwdriver is attached to the back jig engaging portion 99 of the rotary shaft 90 exposed from the back side of the mounting substrate 200 to the back side (see FIG. 8 (b)) is engaged, and the rotary shaft 90 is rotated to rotate the slider 40 integrally therewith, and the sliding contact portion 49 is slidably contacted on the sliding contact pattern 13, thereby The resistance value of the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-2 is adjusted. That is, the semi-fixed variable resistor 1-2 is a back-side adjustable semi-fixed variable resistor 1-2 whose resistance value can be adjusted from the back side.

  The reason why the terminal plate 60 having no electrical function is provided in each of the above embodiments is to increase the strength when the semi-fixed variable resistors 1-1 and 1-2 are mounted on the mounting substrate 200. . Therefore, the terminal board 60 is composed of a strong metal plate. Moreover, in the case of the said embodiment, since the rotation axis | shaft 90 is temporarily fixed to the terminal board 60, and the board | substrate 10 and the slider 40 can be attached on it, the assembly becomes easy. In this embodiment, the terminal plate 60 is a dummy terminal plate by providing the three terminal patterns 15, 15, and 19. However, for example, the terminal pattern 19 is omitted, and the sliding contact is made via the slider 40 instead. The terminal plate 60 electrically connected to the pattern 17 may be used as one of regular terminals (current collector plate). Conversely, the terminal board 60 may be omitted and omitted. Also in this case, the slider 40 can be rotatably mounted on the substrate 10 by inserting the shaft portion 97 of the rotation shaft 90 from the back side of the substrate 10.

  As described above, in the above-described embodiment, the step of installing the slider 40 on one surface of the substrate 10 and the rotation shaft 90 on the other surface of the substrate 10 are provided. The shaft portion 97 protruding from 91 is inserted into the locking hole 21 provided in the substrate 10 and the shaft support hole 45 provided in the slider 40 so that the slider 40 and the rotary shaft 90 rotate together. The rotating electronic component 1-1 having a structure in which the slider 40 is rotated from the back side of the substrate 10 by the back jig engaging portion 99 provided on the head 91 of the rotating shaft 90 by the attaching step. , 1-2, the slider main body 41 having the sliding contact portions 49, 44 which are in sliding contact with the sliding contact patterns 13, 17 formed on the substrate 10 as the slider 40, and the slider main body portion.

When manufacturing the rotary electronic component 1-1, the slider 40-1 manufactured by the process of bending the front jig engaging plate portion 55 of the slider 40 to the upper surface side of the slider main body 41 is used. On the other hand, in the case of manufacturing the back-adjustable rotary electronic component 1-2 in which the slider 40 is rotated from the back side of the substrate 10, the front-side treatment is performed from the slider body 41 of the slider 40. The structure using the slider 40-2 manufactured by the process of separating the tool engaging plate part 55 is disclosed.

  Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the technical idea described in the claims and the specification and drawings. Is possible. It should be noted that any shape, structure, and material not directly described in the specification and drawings are within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention as long as the effects and advantages of the present invention are exhibited.

The front jig engaging portion 59 may be provided only on the driver plate 55. In the above embodiment, the semi-fixed variable resistor is described as an example of the rotary electronic component. However, other rotary variable resistors may be used, and the rotary electronic component can be applied to various other rotary electronic components such as a rotary switch. In addition, it goes without saying that various changes can be made to the shapes and materials of the substrate 10, the slider 40, the terminal plate 60, and the rotating shaft 90 that constitute the above embodiment.
