Hermetic terminals are widely used in various fields.
An airtight terminal used in a pressure sensor has a structure shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. In the figure,
1 is a metal outer ring made of an iron-nickel-cobalt alloy called Kovar (53% Fe, 28% Ni, 38% Co), with multiple through holes 2 for glass sealing and a transparent hole in the center for pressure transmission. It has a hole 3 and a pipe portion 4 connected to the through hole 3. A lead wire 6 made of Kovar is hermetically and insulatively sealed to each of the through holes 2 via a borosilicate glass 5.

In the airtight terminal with the above configuration, if the metal outer ring 1 and the lead wire 6 are left exposed as they are,
A finishing plating layer is formed because it not only causes rust, but also causes problems in mounting the pressure-sensitive element on the top surface of the metal outer ring 1 and bonding the thin metal wire to the lead wire 6. . That is, conventionally, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the metal outer ring 1
After the lead wires 6 are hermetically and insulatively sealed via the glass 5, finishing plating layers 7 and 8 are formed on the metal outer ring 1 and the exposed portions of the lead wires 6. The finishing plating layers 7, 8 are generally an electric nickel plating layer, a chemical nickel plating layer or a gold plating layer.

However, in order to form the electric nickel plating layer, since the metal outer ring 1 and the lead wire 6 are insulated through the glass 5, the metal outer ring 1 and the lead wire 6 must be connected by wire binding or the like. It is necessary to have the same potential, and the work of tying and removing wires is extremely complicated. Further, when barrel plating is performed, which is easy to manufacture, the lead wire 6 may be bent and the glass 5 may be cracked. Another problem is that the plating layer on the inner surface of the pipe 4 is thinner than on the outer surface. In addition, when forming a chemical nickel plating layer, there is no need for complicated work such as wire binding, and a uniform plating layer is also formed on the inner surface of the pipe section 4. Because it is formed by reduction with salt, there are several ~
It contains over 10% phosphorus, and when heated during the subsequent mounting process of the pressure-sensitive element, its hardness increases, and the coefficient of linear expansion is about 130 x 10 -7 /℃, so the coefficient of linear expansion is Due to the linear expansion coefficient difference with the metal outer ring 1 of 47×10 −7 /° C., cracks tend to occur in the plating layer, and there is a problem in that airtightness leaks from this portion. Furthermore, forming a gold plating layer increases the cost due to high material costs, and if the thickness of the plating is made thinner to reduce costs, there is a problem of rust due to deterioration of corrosion resistance. If a layer is formed, there is a problem that the lead wire 6 is likely to break due to stress corrosion.

Therefore, the main purpose of this invention is to achieve a linear expansion coefficient of 75 in the temperature range of 450℃ or less, such as Kovar.
The metal outer ring made of a material with a temperature of ×10 -7 /℃ or less and the lead wire are sealed in an airtight and insulating manner through borosilicate glass to form an airtight finish plating layer that easily and without causing various problems. An object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a terminal.

FIG. 5 shows a process block diagram for explaining the manufacturing method of the present invention, and FIG. 6 shows an enlarged sectional view of the main part of the airtight terminal manufactured by the above method.
First, lead wires 6 made of Kovar are airtightly inserted through borosilicate glass 5 into each through hole 2 of a metal outer ring 1 made of an iron-nickel-cobalt alloy called Kovar (53% Fe, 28% Ni, 18% Co). After insulatively sealing, an electric nickel plating layer 9 is formed only on the metal outer ring 1, and then chemical nickel plating layers 10 and 11 are formed on the metal outer ring 1 and the lead wire 6.

According to the above manufacturing method, since the electric nickel plating layer 9 is first formed only on the metal outer ring 1, complicated wire binding work is not necessary and can be easily carried out. Furthermore, the chemical nickel plating layers 10 and 11 can be uniformly formed on the metal outer ring 1 and the lead wire 6, which are insulated through the glass 5, without any wire binding work, and especially on the inner surface of the pipe portion 4. It can be formed to a certain thickness. Furthermore, since the chemical nickel plating layer 11 is formed on the metal outer ring 1 with the electric nickel plating layer 9 interposed therebetween, the hardness of the chemical nickel plating layer 11 is reduced during a heating process such as mounting a pressure sensitive element on the metal outer ring 1. Even if stress occurs due to the difference in coefficient of linear expansion with the metal outer ring 1, this stress is absorbed by the flexible electric nickel plating layer 9, so this stress will not cause cracks in the chemical nickel plating layer 11.

In the above embodiment, the pipe portion 4 is connected to the metal outer ring 1.
Although the case has been described in which it is formed integrally with the metal outer ring 1, it may be manufactured separately from the metal outer ring 1 and fixedly integrated with the metal outer ring 1 by resistance welding or brazing. In this case, a finish plating layer may be formed after the metal outer ring 1 and the pipe portion 4 are fixed and integrated, but an electric nickel plating layer is separately formed and then fixed and integrated, and then a chemical nickel plating layer is formed. You may form it. In such a case, there is an advantage that the length dimension of the through hole 3 is substantially reduced, thereby making it easier to form the electrolytic nickel plating layer 9 on the inner surface of the pipe portion 4.

Furthermore, the metal outer ring 1 is made of iron called Kovar.
Not only nickel-cobalt alloys, but also iron-nickel alloys called 42 alloys (58% Fe, 42% Ni, coefficient of linear expansion 52×10 -7 /°C) have a linear expansion coefficient in the temperature range below 450°C. The same method can be used when a metal material having a temperature of 75×10 -7 /°C or less is used.

As described above, this invention provides a metal outer ring made of a material with a linear expansion coefficient of 75×10 -7 /°C or less in a temperature range of 450°C or less, and a lead made of iron-nickel-cobalt alloy via borosilicate glass. In a method for manufacturing an airtight terminal in which a finish plating layer is formed on the metal outer ring and the exposed portion of the lead wire after the wire is hermetically and insulatively sealed, an electric nickel plating layer is first formed only on the metal outer ring as the finish plating layer. However, since a chemical nickel plating layer is then formed on the metal outer ring and the lead wire, the plating work is easier than when forming a conventional electric nickel plating layer. Compared to the case of forming a gold plating layer, there is no problem of hardening of the chemical nickel plating layer in the subsequent heating process and cracking of the chemical nickel plating layer due to stress due to the difference in coefficient of linear expansion with the metal outer ring. This has the effect of significantly reducing costs.
