Description

明細書 電铸管の製造方法及び電铸管、 電铸管を製造するための細線材 技術分野  Description Method for manufacturing an electric tube, electric tube, thin wire for manufacturing the electric tube
本発明は、 電気铸造(本明細書では「電鎊」 という)管の製造方法及び電鎢管、 電铸管を製造するための細線材に係り、 更に詳しくは、 微細な内径を有する電铸 管の製造方法及び電铸管に関する。 また、 微細な内径を有する電铸管を製造する ための細線材に関する。 背景技術  The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an electric structure (hereinafter referred to as “electrode”) tube, an electric tube, and a thin wire for manufacturing the electric tube. More specifically, the present invention relates to an electric tube having a fine inner diameter. The present invention relates to a tube manufacturing method and an electric tube. Further, the present invention relates to a thin wire for producing an electrode tube having a fine inner diameter. Background art
従来から L S I等の集積回路を製造する際には、 半導体パターンが設計通りに 出来上がつており、 電気的導通が良好であるかどうかの検査が行われている。 こ の検査は、 多数のコンタクトプローブを備えた装置 (本明細書では 「プロ一ブ装 置」 という) を用い、 コンタクトプローブのピンを形成した各電極に接触させて 行われる。 コンタクトプローブは、 所要長さを有する極細の管の内部にパネが設 けてあり、 ピンを管内に進退可能に設けた構造を有している。  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when manufacturing integrated circuits such as LSI, semiconductor patterns are completed as designed, and inspections are performed to determine whether electrical continuity is good. This inspection is performed by using an apparatus provided with a large number of contact probes (referred to as “probe apparatus” in the present specification) and making contact with each electrode on which the pins of the contact probe are formed. The contact probe has a structure in which a panel is provided inside a very thin tube having a required length, and pins are provided so as to be able to advance and retreat in the tube.
ところで近年の半導体製造技術の進化は目覚ましいものがあり、 集積度はます ます高密度化する傾向にある。 これに伴い電極の電気的導通を検査するプローブ 装置においても最新の集積回路に対応できるように、 コンタクトプローブの数を 増やし (多ピン化)、 線径も細くし (細線化)、 コンタクトプローブ間の間隔もよ り狭く (狭ピッチ化) することが求められている。 現在のコンタクトプローブ用 の管は、 外径が 1 1 0 z m、 内径が 8 8 のものが世界最小とされている (例 えば、 非特許文献 1参照)。  By the way, the progress of semiconductor manufacturing technology in recent years has been remarkable, and the degree of integration tends to be higher and higher. Along with this, the number of contact probes has been increased (to increase the number of pins), the wire diameter has been reduced (to reduce the number of pins), and the distance between contact probes has been increased in order to support the latest integrated circuits even in probe devices that inspect the electrical continuity of electrodes. It is also required that the distance between them be narrower (narrower pitch). At present, the world's smallest tube for a contact probe with an outer diameter of 110 zm and an inner diameter of 8.8 is the world's smallest (for example, see Non-Patent Document 1).
しかしながら、 上記したように半導体製造技術はますます進化しているため、 コンタクトプローブも更に小型化することが必要とされている。  However, as described above, since the semiconductor manufacturing technology is further evolving, it is necessary to further reduce the size of the contact probe.
また、 微細な内径を有する管の必要性は、 半導体産業以外の例えばバイオテク ノロジ一や医療の分野においても高まっている。 In addition, the need for tubes with small internal diameters It is also growing in the fields of medicine and medicine.
つまり、 このような微細な内径を有する管の開発は産業界全体から強く要請さ れている。  In other words, the development of a tube having such a small inner diameter is strongly demanded by the entire industry.
本発明者は、 電铸に関する研究を行っており、 以前に電錶によって径小な管を 製造することに成功している。このときの電铸管は、中空部が断面円形状であり、 内径が 1 2 6 mのものである (例えば、 特許文献 1参照)。 従って、 本発明者は 電铸技術を使えば、 コンタクトプローブ用の微細な内径 (中空部) を有する管も つくれるのではないかとの着想を得た。  The present inventor has been conducting research on electric power, and has previously succeeded in producing a small-diameter tube by electric power. The electrode tube at this time has a hollow section with a circular cross section and an inner diameter of 126 m (for example, see Patent Document 1). Therefore, the present inventor has the idea that the use of the electrode technology may provide a tube having a fine inner diameter (hollow portion) for a contact probe.
そして更に研究を重ねたところ、 直径が 1 0 i mから 8 5 mまでの細線材を 用い、 この細線材の外面に最小 5 mの金属の膜を付着させることに成功した。 そうして、 この金属から上記細線材が除去できれば、 微細な内径 (中空部) を有 する管がつくれることを知見した。  After further research, they succeeded in depositing a metal film with a minimum thickness of 5 m on the outer surface of a thin wire with a diameter of 10 im to 85 m. Then, it was found that if the fine wire could be removed from this metal, a tube having a fine inner diameter (hollow portion) could be made.
しかし、 電着 (析出) させた金属から細線材を除去することは、 電着した金属 が細線材の外面に密着しているので、 容易なことではなかった。  However, removing the fine wire from the electrodeposited (precipitated) metal has not been easy because the electrodeposited metal is in close contact with the outer surface of the fine wire.

As the insulating material, for example, those made of thermosetting resin, thermoplastic resin, engine plastic, synthetic fiber (synthetic fiber, semi-synthetic fiber, regenerated fiber, inorganic fiber) and the like can be used.

(作 用)  (Operation)
本発明によれば、 電铸によって形成された電着物または囲繞物から細線材が除 去できる。 細線材は、 ①電着物または囲繞物を加熱して熱膨張させ、 または細線 材を冷却して収縮させることにより、 電着物または囲繞物と細線材の間に隙間を 形成したり、 ②液中に浸してまたは液をかけることにより、 細線材と電着物また は囲繞物が接触している箇所を滑り易くしたり、 ③一方または両方から引っ張つ て断面積が小さくなるように変形させて、 細線材と電着物または囲繞物の間に隙 間を形成したりして、 掴んで引っ張るか、 吸引するか、 物理的に押し遣るか、 気 体または液体を噴出して押し遣るかのいずれかの方法を用いて除去される。また、 ④熱または溶剤で溶かしても除去できる。 According to the present invention, a thin wire is removed from an electrodeposit or a surrounding object formed by an electrode. You can leave. The fine wire can be formed by (1) heating the electrodeposit or surrounding material to expand it thermally, or cooling and shrinking the thin wire to form a gap between the electrodeposit or surrounding material and the thin wire, or (2) in the liquid. Immersed in or sprayed with a liquid to make it easy to slip the place where the fine wire and the electrodeposit or surrounding object are in contact, or (3) pull it from one or both to deform it to reduce the cross-sectional area, A gap is formed between the fine wire and the electrodeposit or surrounding material, and it is either grasped and pulled, sucked, physically pushed, or ejected by pushing gas or liquid. It is removed using the method described above. It can also be removed by dissolving with heat or a solvent.
細線材の除去に際して、 このような方法を用いれば、 例えば、 直径が 1 0 i m から 8 5 mまでの細線材を用いて、 この細線材の外面に 5 z m以上 5 0 i m以 下の肉厚を有するように形成した電着物または囲繞物からでも、 細線材を除去す ることができる。 従って、 この細線材の除去方法を用いることにより、 例えば、 コンタクトプローブ用の管等として使用可能な微細な内径を有する電铸管が製造 できる。  When such a method is used to remove the thin wire, for example, a thin wire having a diameter of 10 im to 85 m is used, and the outer surface of the thin wire has a thickness of 5 zm or more and 50 im or less. The fine wire can also be removed from the electrodeposit or the surrounding object formed to have the shape. Therefore, by using this method for removing a thin wire, for example, an electrode tube having a fine inner diameter that can be used as a tube for a contact probe or the like can be manufactured.
細線材に形成される端部側の電着物または囲繞物の量を多くして電铸管を製造 する方法によれば、 例えば、 細線材を電着物または囲繞物から引き抜いたり押し 遣ったりして除去する際に、 治具や工具等を電着物または囲繞物の量を多くした 部分の端面等に引っ掛けたりすることができる。 従って、 この場合では、 電着物 または囲繞物を固定した状態にして細線材が除去できるようになるので、 細線材 が除去し易い。  According to a method of manufacturing an electrode tube by increasing the amount of the electrodeposit or the surrounding material on the end portion formed on the thin wire, for example, the thin wire is pulled out or pushed from the electrodeposit or the surrounding material. At the time of removal, a jig or a tool can be hooked on an end face or the like of a portion where the amount of the electrodeposit or the surrounding object is increased. Therefore, in this case, since the thin wire can be removed while the electrodeposit or the surrounding object is fixed, the thin wire can be easily removed.
細線材を外方に引っ張って伸ばしたときの横ひずみの変形量が断面積の 5 %以 上あるようにした電鎢管の製造方法によれば、 細線材と電着物または囲繞物の間 に、 細線材を除去するのに十分な隙間が形成できるので、 細線材が電着物または 囲繞物から支障なく除去できる可能性が高い。 仮に横ひずみの変形量が断面積の 5 %未満しかなかった場合では、 隙間が十分でないので、 除去に際して支障が生 じる場合がある。  According to a method for manufacturing an electrode tube in which the amount of lateral strain when the thin wire is pulled outward and stretched is 5% or more of the cross-sectional area, the distance between the thin wire and the electrodeposited material or the surrounding material is increased. Since a gap enough to remove the fine wire can be formed, there is a high possibility that the fine wire can be removed from the electrodeposit or the surroundings without any trouble. If the transverse strain is less than 5% of the cross-sectional area, the clearance may not be sufficient, which may hinder removal.
外面に導電層が設けられた細線材を用い、 導電層が電鐽管の内面に残るように 1 細線材を除去する電铸管の製造方法によれば、 内面に金メツキ等を設けた電铸管 が製造できる。 このような電铸管は、 例えば、 内面に設ける導電層の材質によつ て電気伝導率が電着物または囲繞物だけのときょり良好にできるので、 この場合 では電気を伝導するのに適した部品として使用できる。 Use a thin wire with a conductive layer on the outer surface so that the conductive layer remains on the inner surface of the tube. 1 According to the method for manufacturing an electrode tube from which a thin wire is removed, an electrode tube provided with a gold plating or the like on the inner surface can be manufactured. Such a tube is suitable for conducting electricity in this case, for example, because the electric conductivity can be improved by the material of the conductive layer provided on the inner surface only when the electrodeposit or the surrounding object is used alone. Can be used as a part.
なお、 内面に電着物または囲繞物とは異なる材質の導電層が設けてある電铸管 や、 外面に、 電着物または囲繞物とは異なる材質の導電層が設けてある細線材に ついても、 同様に電気伝導率が電着物または囲繞物だけのときょり良い電铸管が 形成できる。  It should be noted that even for an electrode tube having a conductive layer made of a material different from that of the electrodeposit or the surrounding material on the inner surface, or a thin wire material having a conductive layer made of a material different from the electrodeposit or the surrounding material on the outer surface, Similarly, when the electric conductivity is only the electrodeposit or the surrounding object, a good electrode tube can be formed.
外面側に材質の異なる導電層が少なくとも二層以上形成してある細線材を用い た電铸管の製造方法によれば、 例えば、 外側の導電層を銅で構成し、 銅と接する 内側の導電層を金で構成して、 電铸によりニッケルが電着物または囲繞物として 形成されるようにできる。この場合では、ニッケルは金よりも銅と密着性が良く、 銅は金とも密着性が良いので、 密着性の良好な電铸管が形成できる。  According to a method for manufacturing an electrode tube using a thin wire material in which at least two or more conductive layers of different materials are formed on the outer surface side, for example, the outer conductive layer is formed of copper, and the inner conductive layer is in contact with copper. The layer can be made of gold so that nickel can be formed as an electrodeposit or enclosure by electrodeposition. In this case, nickel has better adhesion with copper than gold, and copper has better adhesion with gold, so that an electrode tube with good adhesion can be formed.
なお、内面に電着物または囲繞物とは異なる材質の導電層が設けてあり、更に、 電着物または囲繞物と上記導電層との間には、 当該導電層とは異なる材質の導電 層が設けてある電铸管や、 外面に、 電着物または囲繞物とは異なる材質の導電層 が設けてあり、 更に、 細線材基部材と上記導電層との間には、 当該導電層とは異 なる材質の導電層が設けてある細線材についても、 同様に電着物または囲繞物と 導電層との密着性の良好な電铸管が形成できる。  Note that a conductive layer of a material different from that of the electrodeposit or the surrounding object is provided on the inner surface, and a conductive layer of a material different from the conductive layer is provided between the electrodeposit or the surrounding object and the conductive layer. A conductive layer of a material different from that of the electrodeposit or the surrounding object is provided on the electrode tube or the outer surface of the electrode tube, and further, the conductive layer is different between the thin wire base member and the conductive layer. In the case of a thin wire provided with a conductive layer made of a material, an electrode tube having good adhesion between the electrodeposit or the surrounding object and the conductive layer can be similarly formed.
細線材を除去して形成される中空部を複数個備えたものは、 例えば、 中空部が 一つしか設けられていない管を複数並べて製造されていた部品と置き換えて使用 することができる。 この電铸管によれば、 個々の管を並べて設置する手間を無く すことができる。 また、 中空部の間の間隔も電着物または囲繞物で固定されてい るのでずれない。  A tube having a plurality of hollow portions formed by removing a thin wire can be used, for example, by replacing a part manufactured by arranging a plurality of tubes each having only one hollow portion. According to this electric tube, the trouble of arranging the individual tubes side by side can be eliminated. In addition, the gap between the hollow portions does not shift because it is fixed by the electrodeposit or the surrounding object.
中空部の間に、 絶縁体の外面に導電層を設けて形成してある隔壁体を介在させ て、 各中空部の周りを形成する部分ごとに独立して電気伝導ができるようにして あるものは、 各中空部ごとに独立して電気伝導が可能である。 2 両端側に導電層が設けられていない部分がある細線材は、 この導電層が設けら れていない部分を外方に引っ張るようにすることにより、 引張力が導電層に直接 かかり難くなり、 導電層と基線材とが分離し易く、 また、 導電層と電着物または 囲繞物との密着性も損なわれ難い。 図面の簡単な説明 Between the hollows, a partition formed by providing a conductive layer on the outer surface of the insulator is interposed, so that electric conduction can be performed independently for each part around each hollow. Is capable of conducting electricity independently for each hollow part. (2) For a thin wire having a portion where the conductive layer is not provided on both ends, pulling the portion where the conductive layer is not provided outward makes it difficult for tensile force to be directly applied to the conductive layer. The conductive layer and the base wire are easily separated from each other, and the adhesion between the conductive layer and the electrodeposit or the surrounding material is not easily impaired.

まず、 電鎵管を製造する電铸装置について説明する。  First, an electric device for manufacturing an electric tube will be described.

The upper part of the battery tank 10 and the outer tank 11 is open, and the electrolyte (electrolyte) 20 is constantly supplied into the battery tank 10 during operation. In this way, the electrolyte 20 overflows from the upper part of the electrode tank 10 and flows into the outer tank 11. In the present embodiment, as the electrolytic solution 20, for example, a solution obtained by adding a brightener and a bit preventing agent to a nickel sulfamate solution is used.
電铸槽 1 0からあふれ出て外槽 1 1内に流れ込んだ電解液 2 0は、濾過装置(図 示省略) によって濾過され、 再び電錶槽 1 0内に供給されている。 つまり電解液 2 0は、運転時において電铸槽 1 0と外槽 1 1の間を絶えず循環している。なお、 電铸槽 1 0に電解液 2 0を供給する供給手段は、 公知手段が使用できる (図示省 略)。  Electrolyte solution 20 overflowing from battery tank 10 and flowing into outer tank 11 is filtered by a filtration device (not shown) and supplied again into battery tank 10. That is, the electrolytic solution 20 constantly circulates between the electrolytic bath 10 and the outer bath 11 during operation. A known means can be used for supplying the electrolytic solution 20 to the electrolytic cell 10 (not shown).

電鎵槽 1 0の下部には、 水平アジヤス夕一装置 1 3が設けられている。 この水 平アジヤスター装置 1 3は、 電铸槽 1 0を略水平に維持し、 これにより電铸槽 1 0の上部全域に略水平なォ一バーフロー部 1 2が形成され、 オーバ一フロー部 1 2内の各所に電解液 2 0が均一に分布するようにできる。  A horizontal adjuster 13 is provided below the battery tank 10. The horizontal adjuster device 13 maintains the battery tank 10 substantially horizontal, thereby forming a substantially horizontal overflow section 12 over the entire upper portion of the battery tank 10 and forming an overflow section. Electrolyte solution 20 can be distributed uniformly in various places within 12.
符号 4は、 電铸用の型部材 (母材) となる細線材 3 0を保持する保持治具を示 している。 保持治具 4は、 所要長さを有する水平部材 4 0と、 この水平部材 4 0 の両端側に垂下させてある一対の垂設部材 4 1, 4 1を備えている。 保持治具 4 は、 垂設部材 4 1 , 4 1が電铸槽 1 0の側方に位置するように設けられている。 垂設部材 4 1 , 4 1には、 所要の長さを有する棒状の線材固定部材 4 2 , 4 3 が、 それぞれ略水平方向に延びて設けられている。 線材固定部材 4 2 , 4 3は、 垂設部材 4 1 , 4 1に回転可能に設けられている。 一方の線材固定部材 4 2の電 4 铸槽 10側の端部には、 電極 44が設けられている。 また、 他方の線材固定部材 43の電铸槽 10側の端部には、 細線材 30を引っ張るテンション装置 45と、 電極 44が設けられている。 線材固定部材 42, 43には、 細線材 30の一端と 他端がそれぞれ固定されて、 テンション装置 45によって緊張した状態で設けら れる。 Reference numeral 4 denotes a holding jig for holding a thin wire 30 serving as a power mold member (base material). The holding jig 4 includes a horizontal member 40 having a required length, and a pair of hanging members 41, 41 hanging at both ends of the horizontal member 40. The holding jig 4 is provided such that the vertical members 41, 41 are located on the sides of the battery tank 10. The rod members 41, 41 are provided with rod-shaped wire fixing members 42, 43 having a required length, respectively, extending substantially in the horizontal direction. The wire fixing members 42 and 43 are rotatably provided on the vertical members 41 and 41. One wire fixing member 4 2 4 An electrode 44 is provided at the end on the tank 10 side. Further, a tension device 45 for pulling the fine wire 30 and an electrode 44 are provided at an end of the other wire fixing member 43 on the side of the electric cell 10. One end and the other end of the fine wire 30 are fixed to the wire fixing members 42 and 43, respectively, and are provided in a tensioned state by a tension device 45.
垂設部材 41, 41の間には、 回転軸 46が回転可能に架設されている。 符号 47は回転軸 46を駆動させる駆動モータを示している。 回転軸 46は垂設部材 41, 41を貫通しており、 両端側には歯車 480, 481が固着されている。 上記した線材固定部材 42, 43は、 垂設部材 41, 41を貫通して設けてあ る。 垂設部材 41を貫通した線材固定部材 42には、 歯車 482が固着されてい る。 同様に垂設部材 41を貫通した線材固定部材 43には、 歯車 483が固着さ れている。 こうして歯車 480と歯車 482、 歯車 48 1と歯車 483とが嚙み 合わせてある。 従って、 駆動モー夕 47を作動させて、 回転軸 46と共に歯車 4 80, 481を回転させることにより、歯車 482, 483と線材固定部材 42, 43が回転し、 ひいては細線材 30が回転するようにできる。 細線材 30の回転 速度は、 特に限定するものではない。 例えば、 15r. p.m.以下に制御される。 線材固定部材 42, 43の外側の端部には、 それぞれ導電性を有する電極接触 部材 49, 49が設けられている。 電極接触部材 49, 49は、 保持治具 4が電 錶槽 10の上方に配置されたときに、 電铸槽 10と外槽 1 1との間に設けられた 電極部 14, 14と接触する。 電極部 14, 14は電源のマイナス極と接続され ている。 従って、 電極接触部材 49, 49は、 電極部 14, 14と接触した状態 で、 電源のマイナス極と電気的に接続された状態となる。  A rotating shaft 46 is rotatably mounted between the hanging members 41, 41. Reference numeral 47 denotes a drive motor for driving the rotating shaft 46. The rotating shaft 46 penetrates the hanging members 41, 41, and gears 480, 481 are fixed to both ends. The wire fixing members 42 and 43 described above are provided to penetrate the hanging members 41 and 41. A gear 482 is fixed to the wire fixing member 42 penetrating the hanging member 41. Similarly, a gear 483 is fixed to the wire fixing member 43 penetrating the hanging member 41. Thus, the gear 480 and the gear 482, and the gear 481 and the gear 483 are combined. Therefore, by operating the drive motor 47 and rotating the gears 480 and 481 together with the rotating shaft 46, the gears 482 and 483 and the wire fixing members 42 and 43 rotate, and thus the thin wire 30 rotates. it can. The rotation speed of the fine wire 30 is not particularly limited. For example, it is controlled to 15r.p.m. or less. Electrode contact members 49, 49 having conductivity are provided at outer ends of the wire fixing members 42, 43, respectively. The electrode contact members 49, 49 come into contact with the electrode portions 14, 14 provided between the battery tank 10 and the outer tank 11 when the holding jig 4 is disposed above the battery tank 10. . Electrodes 14, 14 are connected to the negative pole of the power supply. Therefore, the electrode contact members 49, 49 are in a state of being electrically connected to the negative pole of the power supply while being in contact with the electrode portions 14, 14.
符号 15は電源のプラス極と電気的に接続された電極部を示している。 電極部 15は、 電錡槽 10の底部に設けられている。 電極部 1 5は、 例えば、 チタン鋼 からなるメッシュ状または穴あきのケース内に電铸用の金属ペレツト (例えば、 ニッケルペレツト) を収納して構成されたもの等が使用できる。  Reference numeral 15 denotes an electrode portion electrically connected to the positive pole of the power supply. The electrode section 15 is provided at the bottom of the battery chamber 10. The electrode portion 15 may be, for example, a structure in which a metal pellet (for example, nickel pellet) for power is accommodated in a mesh or perforated case made of titanium steel.
電铸装置 100を使用した電铸管の製造方法について説明する。 まず、 線材固定部材 4 2, 4 3に細線材 3 0の一端部と他端部をそれぞれ固定 させて、 線材固定部材 4 2, 4 3の間で細線材 3 0を緊張した状態にする。 この とき電解液 2 0は電錶槽 1 0に供給されており、 電铸槽 1 0の上部からあふれ出 して(オーバ一フロ一部 1 2を形成して)、外槽 1 1内に流れ込むようになつてい る。 また、 オーバ一フロー部 1 2は、 水平アジヤス夕一装置 1 3によって電鏡槽 1 0を略水平にし、 各所に電解液 2 0が均一に分布するように調整されている。 本実施の形態で細線材 3 0は、 直径 5 0 mの断面略円形状を有するステンレ ス製で、外方に引っ張る略 1 5 0 O NZmm2の引張力をかけたときに横ひずみの 変形量が断面積の 1 0 %になるものを使用した。 A method for manufacturing an electrode tube using the electrode device 100 will be described. First, one end and the other end of the fine wire 30 are fixed to the wire fixing members 42 and 43, respectively, so that the thin wire 30 is tensioned between the wire fixing members 42 and 43. At this time, the electrolytic solution 20 is supplied to the electric cell 10, overflows from the upper part of the electric cell 10 (forms an overflow part 12), and flows into the outer cell 11. And so on. The overflow unit 12 is adjusted so that the electroscope tank 10 is made substantially horizontal by a horizontal adjuster device 13 so that the electrolytic solution 20 is uniformly distributed in various places. In the present embodiment, the thin wire 30 is made of stainless steel having a substantially circular cross section with a diameter of 50 m, and is deformed by transverse strain when a tensile force of about 150 O NZmm 2 is pulled outward. The amount used was 10% of the cross-sectional area.
次に、 駆動モー夕 4 7を作動させて、 回転軸 4 6と共に歯車 4 8 0, 4 8 1を 回転させる。 これにより歯車 4 8 2, 4 8 3と線材固定部材 4 2 , 4 3が回転し、 細線材 3 0が回転する。  Next, the drive motor 47 is operated to rotate the gears 480 and 481 together with the rotating shaft 46. As a result, the gears 482, 483 and the wire fixing members 42, 43 rotate, and the fine wire 30 rotates.
電極接触部材 4 9 , 4 9を電極部 1 4, 1 4と接触させて、 垂設部材 4 1 , 4 1を電铸槽 1 0の側方に位置させ、 細線材 3 0のみをオーバーフロ一部 1 2中に 浸ける。 電極接触部材 4 9, 4 9が電極部 1 4 , 1 4と接触することにより、 電 極部 1 5が電源のプラス極と電気的に接続されているので、 細線材 3 0が電源の マイナス極と電気的に接続された状態となって電铸が始まる。 こうして細線材 3 0の周りに金属 (本実施の形態で示す電解液 2 0によればニッケル) が電着 (析 出) される。細線材 3 0の周りに電着する金属は電着物(または囲繞物)である。 細線材 3 0を所要時間オーバーフロー部 1 2内に浸け、 電着した金属の外径が 全長にわたり略 7 0 z^ mになるまで電铸する。 目標外径に到達したら、 細線材 3 0をオーバ一フロー部 1 2より取り出して電铸を止める。 金属の電着量 (析出 量)、 つまり細線材に電着する金属の肉厚は、 電流や電圧、 電錶時間等によって予 め制御可能である。  The electrode contact members 49 and 49 are brought into contact with the electrode parts 14 and 14, and the hanging members 41 and 41 are located on the side of the cell 10, and only the fine wire 30 overflows. Soak in part 1 2 When the electrode contact members 49 and 49 come into contact with the electrode portions 14 and 14, the electrode portion 15 is electrically connected to the positive pole of the power supply. Electricity starts with being electrically connected to the poles. In this way, a metal (nickel according to the electrolytic solution 20 shown in the present embodiment) is electrodeposited (deposited) around the thin wire 30. The metal electrodeposited around the thin wire 30 is an electrodeposit (or surrounding object). The thin wire 30 is immersed in the overflow section 12 for a required time, and is heated until the outer diameter of the electrodeposited metal becomes approximately 70 zm over the entire length. When the target outer diameter is reached, remove the thin wire 30 from the overflow section 12 and stop the power supply. The electrodeposition amount (precipitation amount) of the metal, that is, the thickness of the metal electrodeposited on the fine wire can be controlled in advance by current, voltage, electrodeposition time, and the like.
電铸装置 1 0 0では、 各所にて電解液 2 0が均一に分布するようにオーバーフ 口一部 1 2が調整されており、 しかも、 細線材 3 0は回転させているので、 仮に 電解液 2 0内の電流密度に不均一な箇所が発生した場合であっても、 細線材 3 0 における金属の電着状態 (析出状態) にはばらつきが生じ難い。 従って、 細線材 3 0の周囲には、 全長にわたって略均等な肉厚を有するように金属が電着する。 これにより電铸管は、 細線材 3 0を除去するだけで高精度のものが製造できる。 また、 電铸装置 1 0 0は、 オーバ一フロ一部 1 2で電 しており、 あふれ出た 電解液 2 0は再び電錡槽 1 0に戻って循環している。 つまり、 電錶にあたっては オーバ一フロー部 1 2が形成できれば良く、 このため少量の電解液 2 0でも電铸 を行うことが可能である。 In the power supply apparatus 100, the overflow port 12 is adjusted so that the electrolytic solution 20 is uniformly distributed in various places, and the fine wire 30 is rotated. Even if the current density within 20 is uneven, the fine wire 30 In the electrodeposition state (precipitation state) of the metal in the above, variation hardly occurs. Therefore, metal is electrodeposited around the thin wire 30 so as to have a substantially uniform thickness over the entire length. Thus, a high-precision electrode tube can be manufactured only by removing the thin wire 30. In addition, the electric power generation apparatus 100 is electrically powered by the overflow part 12, and the overflowing electrolyte solution 20 is returned to the electric cell tank 10 and circulated again. In other words, it is only necessary to form the overflow portion 12 in the electrolysis, and therefore, it is possible to perform the electrolysis even with a small amount of the electrolytic solution 20.
電铸装置 1 0 0では、 細線材 3 0を固定する線材固定部材 4 2 , 4 3が、 ォー バ一フ口一部 1 2の外側に配置されるので、 線材固定部材 4 2 , 4 3は電解液 2 0に浸からない。 従って、 線材固定部材 4 2 , 4 3等が電解液 2 0と反応して不 純物を発生させるようなことがない。 また、 電解液 2 0が線材固定部材 4 2, 4 3等に付着して持ち出されてしまうこともなく、 電铸槽 1 0から電解液 2 0が無 駄に減ることもない。  In the power supply apparatus 100, the wire fixing members 4 2 and 4 3 for fixing the fine wire 30 are arranged outside the overpass opening part 12 so that the wire fixing members 4 2 and 4 3 is not immersed in the electrolyte 20. Therefore, the wire fixing members 42, 43 and the like do not react with the electrolytic solution 20 to generate impurities. Also, the electrolytic solution 20 does not adhere to the wire fixing members 42, 43, etc. and is taken out, and the electrolytic solution 20 is not unnecessarily reduced from the electrolytic bath 10.
そして、 周りに金属が電着した細線材 3 0を線材固定部材 4 2, 4 3カゝら取り 外し、 最後に形成された電着物 (囲繞物) から細線材 3 0を除去する。  Then, the thin wire 30 around which the metal is electrodeposited is removed from the wire fixing members 42, 43, and the thin wire 30 is removed from the electrodeposit (enclosure) formed last.
細線材 3 0は、 外面に電着物が密着しているので、 単に、 細線材 3 0を掴んで 引っ張ったり、 吸引したり、 物理的に押し遣ったり、 気体または液体を噴出して 押し遣ったりするだけでは除去が困難である。 従って、 細線材 3 0は、 以下に示 す(1) 〜(4) のいずれかの方法を用いて除去される。  Since the thin wire 30 has the electrodeposit adhered to the outer surface, it simply grabs the thin wire 30 and pulls it, sucks it, pushes it physically, or pushes it out by blowing out gas or liquid. It is difficult to remove just by doing. Therefore, the thin wire 30 is removed by using any of the following methods (1) to (4).
(1) 電着物を加熱して熱膨張させ、 または細線材 3 0を冷却して収縮させて、 電 着物と細線材 3 0の間に隙間を形成し、 細線材 3 0を掴んで引っ張るか、 吸引す るか、 物理的に押し遣るか、 気体または液体を噴出して押し遣るかのいずれかの 方法を用いて除去する。  (1) Heating the electrodeposit to expand it thermally, or cooling and shrinking the thin wire 30 to form a gap between the electrodeposit and the thin wire 30 and grasping and pulling the thin wire 30 Remove by aspiration, physical pushing, or by blowing a gas or liquid.
(2) 洗浄剤を溶解させた液体中に浸したり、 この液体をかけたりして、 細線材 3 0と電着物とが接触している箇所を滑り易くする。 そして、 細線材 3 0を掴んで 引っ張るか、 吸引するか、 物理的に押し遣るか、 気体または液体を噴出して押し 遣るかのいずれかの方法を用いて除去する。 (3) 細線材 3 0を一方または両方から引っ張って断面積が小さくなるように変形 させる。 そして、 電着物と細線材 3 0の間に隙間を形成し、 細線材 3 0を掴んで 引っ張るか、 吸引するか、 物理的に押し遣るか、 気体または液体を噴出して押し 遣るかのいずれかの方法を用いて除去する。 (2) By immersing in the liquid in which the cleaning agent is dissolved or by applying the liquid, the portion where the fine wire 30 and the electrodeposit are in contact with each other is easily slipped. Then, the thin wire 30 is removed by using any of the following methods: gripping, pulling, sucking, physically pushing, or ejecting a gas or liquid and pushing. (3) The thin wire 30 is pulled from one or both and deformed to reduce the cross-sectional area. Then, a gap is formed between the electrodeposit and the fine wire 30, and the fine wire 30 is grasped and pulled, sucked, physically pushed, or gas or liquid is ejected and pushed. It is removed using this method.
(4) 細線材 3 0を熱によって溶かしたり、 またはアルカリ性溶液や酸性溶液等の 溶剤によって溶かしたりして除去する。  (4) The fine wire 30 is removed by dissolving it with heat or dissolving it with a solvent such as an alkaline solution or an acidic solution.
こうして細線材 3 0を除去することにより、 残った電着物によって微細な内径 (中空部) を有する電铸管がつくられる。 この電铸管は、 コンタクトプローブ用 の管等として使用可能である。  By removing the thin wire 30 in this manner, an electrode tube having a fine inner diameter (hollow portion) is formed by the remaining electrodeposit. This electrode tube can be used as a tube for a contact probe or the like.
本実施の形態では、 全長にわたって略均等な肉厚を有する電着物から細線材を 除去するようにしたが、 これは限定するものではない。 例えば、 図 2に示すよう に、 電着物 5 0の一端側に外径の大きな径大部 5 0 0を形成して、 細線材 3 0を 引っ張るか、 吸引するか、 物理的に押し遣るか、 気体または液体を噴出して押し 遣るかのいずれかの方法を用いて除去することもできる。 このように径大部 5 0 0を形成することで、 引き抜いたり押し遣ったりする際において、 治具や工具が 径大部 5 0 0の端面に引っ掛けることができる。 従って、 この場合では、 電着物 を固定した状態にして細線材 3 0が除去できるようになるので、 細線材が除去し 易くなる。 なお、 このように一部分の電着量を多くする作業は、 他の電铸装置に 移し替えられて行われることもある。  In the present embodiment, the thin wire is removed from the electrodeposit having a substantially uniform thickness over the entire length, but this is not a limitation. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, a large-diameter portion 500 having a large outer diameter is formed at one end of the electrodeposit 50 to pull, suck, or physically push the thin wire 30. It can also be removed using either a gas or liquid squirting and pushing method. By forming the large-diameter portion 500 in this manner, a jig or a tool can be hooked on the end face of the large-diameter portion 500 when being pulled out or pushed. Therefore, in this case, since the thin wire 30 can be removed with the electrodeposit fixed, the thin wire can be easily removed. The work of increasing the electrodeposition amount of a part in this way may be performed by transferring to another electric device.
また、 上記実施の形態にて細線材 3 0は、 直径 5 0 の断面略円形状を有す るものを使用した。 しかし、 細線材の太さや断面形状はこれに限定するものでは ない。例えば、図 3に示すように断面形状が四角形等の多角形状の細線材 3 1 (角 部に丸みが付けてある実質的に多角形状のものも含む)を使用することもできる。 符号 5 1は電着物である。  In the above embodiment, the thin wire 30 having a diameter of 50 and a substantially circular cross section was used. However, the thickness and cross-sectional shape of the thin wire are not limited to these. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, a thin wire 31 having a polygonal cross section such as a quadrangle (including a substantially polygonal shape having rounded corners) may be used. Reference numeral 51 denotes an electrodeposit.
上記した細線材は、 断面形状が略円形状を有するものでは、 外径が 1 0 以 上 8 5 m以下であれば、 また、 外形状が断面多角形状を有するものでは、 内接 円の直径が 1 0 m以上 8 5 m以下であれば、 微細な内径を有する電铸管の製 造において使用できることが、 本発明者の実験によりわかっている。 The above-mentioned fine wire has an outer diameter of not less than 10 and not more than 85 m when the cross-sectional shape is substantially circular, and the diameter of an inscribed circle when the outer shape has a polygonal cross-sectional shape. If it is 10 m or more and 85 m or less, manufacture of an electrode tube with a fine inside diameter It has been found by experiments of the present inventors that it can be used in fabrication.
また、本実施の形態で示す細線材 3 0は外方に引っ張る略 1 5 0 O N/mm2の 引張力をかけたときに横ひずみの変形量が断面積の 1 0 %になるものを使用し た。 しかし、 細線材の横ひずみの変形量は特に限定するものではない。 本発明者 が実験したところによれば、 少なくとも断面積の 5 %以上の変形量があれば良い ようである。 The thin wire 30 used in the present embodiment is such that when the tensile force of about 150 ON / mm 2 is pulled outward, the deformation of the transverse strain becomes 10% of the cross-sectional area. did. However, the amount of lateral strain deformation of the fine wire is not particularly limited. According to experiments performed by the present inventors, it is sufficient that the deformation amount is at least 5% or more of the cross-sectional area.
本実施の形態では直径 5 0 の断面略円形状を有する細線材 3 0の周りに、 略 1 0 /i mの肉厚で金属を電着させて、 全体として略 7 0 mの外径となるよう に形成したが、 電着させる金属の肉厚は特に限定するものではない。 本発明者が 実験したところによれば、 少なくとも略 5 mの肉厚を有するように細線材 3 0 の周りに電着させることができれば、 細線材 3 0を除去した後でも電铸管が形成 できることがわかっている。  In the present embodiment, a metal is electrodeposited with a thickness of approximately 10 / im around a thin wire 30 having a substantially circular cross section with a diameter of 50, so that the outer diameter becomes approximately 70 m as a whole. However, the thickness of the metal to be electrodeposited is not particularly limited. According to experiments conducted by the present inventor, an electrode tube can be formed even after the thin wire 30 has been removed if it can be electrodeposited around the thin wire 30 so as to have a thickness of at least approximately 5 m. I know I can.
本実施の形態で細線材 3 0はステンレス製のものを使用し、 この細線材 3 0の 周りに金属を直接電着させるようにした。 しかし、 電铸装置 1 0 0で使用可能な 細線材は、導電性を有するようにしてあれば特に限定するものではなく、例えば、 芯部を金属や合成樹脂等でつくり、 その外面に導電層 (メツキ (金属層 (膜)) や 力一ボン等) を設けたもの等を使用することもできる。 このような細線材を使用 することにより、 例えば、 図 4に示すように、 外周面に金メッキ 3 2 1を設けた 細線材 3 2に電着物 5 2を形成した場合では、 金メッキ 3 2 1を電着物 5 2の内 周面に残して、 基線材 3 2 0のみを除去することも可能である。 この場合では、 内周面に金メッキ 3 2 1が施された電铸管が形成できる。  In the present embodiment, the thin wire 30 is made of stainless steel, and a metal is directly electrodeposited around the thin wire 30. However, the thin wire that can be used in the electric device 100 is not particularly limited as long as it has conductivity.For example, the core portion is made of metal or synthetic resin, and a conductive layer is formed on the outer surface. It is also possible to use a material provided with a metal plating (metal layer (film)) or a pressure plate. By using such a thin wire, for example, as shown in FIG. 4, when the electrodeposit 52 is formed on the thin wire 32 provided with the gold plating 321, the gold plating 321 is formed. It is also possible to remove only the base wire 320 while leaving it on the inner peripheral surface of the electrodeposit 52. In this case, an electrode tube in which the inner peripheral surface is plated with gold can be formed.
内周面に金メッキ 3 2 1が施された電铸管は、 金メッキ 3 2 1を設けないとき よりも電気伝導率を良くすることができるので、 例えば、 コンタクトプローブ用 の管等の電気を伝導するのに適した部品として使用できる。  Electrode tubes with gold plating on the inner surface can improve the electrical conductivity compared to when no gold plating is provided. It can be used as a suitable part to do.
更に例えば、 細線材は、 上記したメツキ等による導電層の外周側に、 更にこれ とは材質の異なる他の導電層を設けたものを使用することもできる。 例えば、 電 铸により電着する金属がニッケルであり、 金メッキ 3 3 1の外周側に銅メツキ 3 9 Further, for example, as the thin wire, a material in which another conductive layer of a different material is provided on the outer peripheral side of the conductive layer formed by the above-described method or the like can be used. For example, the metal to be electrodeposited by nickel is nickel, and the copper plating 3 9
3 2が設けられた細線材 3 3の周りに電着物 5 3を形成した場合 (図 5参照) で は、 ニッケルは金よりも銅と密着性が良く、 銅は金とも密着性が良いので、 基線 材 3 3 0のみを除去して、 ニッケルと銅と金が密着性の良好な状態で接着された 電铸管が形成できる。 この電錶管の内周面には金メッキ 3 3 1が露出している。 このように外周部に導電層 (例えば、 金メッキ) が設けられた細線材を、 断面 積が小さくなるように変形させて析出した金属から除去する場合では、 図 6に示 すように細線材 3 4の両端側に導電層 (例えば、 金メッキ 3 4 0 ) を設けない部 分 (マスキング部 3 4 1 , 3 4 1 ) を形成し、 この導電層を設けていない部分を 引っ張るようにすることが好ましい。 このようにすることで引張力が導電層に直 接かかり難くなり、 導電層と基線材とが分離し易く、 また、 導電層と電着物 5 4 との密着性も損なわれ難い。 In the case where the electrodeposit 53 is formed around the thin wire 33 provided with 32 (see Fig. 5), nickel has better adhesion to copper than gold, and copper has better adhesion to gold. By removing only the base material 330, it is possible to form an electrode tube in which nickel, copper, and gold are adhered with good adhesion. Gold plating 331 is exposed on the inner peripheral surface of this tube. In the case where the thin wire having the conductive layer (for example, gold plating) provided on the outer periphery is deformed so as to have a small cross-sectional area and is removed from the deposited metal, as shown in FIG. It is possible to form portions (masking portions 341, 341) not provided with a conductive layer (for example, gold plating 340) on both end sides of 4, and to pull portions not provided with the conductive layer. preferable. By doing so, it is difficult for the tensile force to be directly applied to the conductive layer, the conductive layer and the base wire are easily separated, and the adhesion between the conductive layer and the electrodeposit 54 is not easily impaired.

溝に嵌めた細線材 3 5の他端側は、 上端側と同様に隣接する案内ピン 8 4, 8 4の間を通して、 引張バネ 8 6を固定部材 8 3で止める。 細線材 3 5は、 引張バ ネ 8 6の引張力によって、 細線材 3 5の開口部 8 1と対応した部分が緊張した状 態となつて取り付けられる。  The other end of the thin wire 35 fitted in the groove passes between adjacent guide pins 84, 84 similarly to the upper end, and the tension spring 86 is stopped by the fixing member 83. The fine wire 35 is attached in such a manner that a portion corresponding to the opening 81 of the fine wire 35 is in a tensioned state by the tensile force of the tension spring 86.
なお、 製造用治具 8において細線材 3 5は、 隣り合うものとの間に 1 0 mの 隙間を有して取り付けられているが、 図 8で上記間隔は理解を容易にするために 誇張して表している。  In the jig 8 for manufacturing, the fine wire 35 is attached with a gap of 10 m between adjacent ones, but the above-mentioned interval is exaggerated in FIG. 8 for easy understanding. It is expressed as
符号 8 7は隔壁部材 8 8を取り付けるための保持部材を示している。 保持部材 8 7は、 開口部 8 1の開口形状と略同じ大きさを有する長方形状の板状体で形成 してある。  Reference numeral 87 denotes a holding member for mounting the partition member 88. The holding member 87 is formed of a rectangular plate having substantially the same size as the shape of the opening 81.
隔壁部材 8 8は、 保持部材 8 7の図 8における上下方向の長さと略同じ長さを 有しており、 厚みの薄い帯状形状を有している。 詳しくは隔壁部材 8 8は、 略 8 ; mの厚みを有する絶縁基部材 8 8 0を備え、 絶縁基部材 8 8 0の表裏面に略 2 〜 3 // mの厚みを有するメツキ等による導電層 (膜) 8 8 1が設けられた構造を 有している。 導電層 8 8 1を形成する材質は、 導電性を有していれば良く、 特に 限定するものではない。 しかし、 電铸による電着物と密着性 (接着性) が良好な 性質を有するものが好ましい。 The partition member 88 has substantially the same length as the length of the holding member 87 in the vertical direction in FIG. 8, and has a thin band shape. Specifically, the partition member 8 8 is approximately 8 An insulating base member 880 having a thickness of m is provided, and a conductive layer (film) 881 is provided on the front and back surfaces of the insulating base member 880 by a plating or the like having a thickness of approximately 2 to 3 // m. It has a structured structure. The material forming the conductive layer 881 may be any material as long as it has conductivity, and is not particularly limited. However, a material having good adhesion (adhesion) to an electrodeposit by an electrode is preferable.
隔壁部材 8 8は、 導電層 8 8 1が対向するように所要間隔を設けて複数個 (具 体的には 7個) 並べて、 保持部材 8 7の表面の略中央部に、 図 8の上下方向の全 長に延びて着脱可能に取り付けてある。 本実施の形態で隔壁部材 8 8は、 上記し た細線材 3 5が略 1 0 mの隙間を形成して治具本体 8 0に取り付けられるよう にしたので、 これと対応するように同じく略 1 0 mの間隔で取り付けてある。 隔壁部材 8 8が設けられた保持部材 8 7は、 開口部 8 1を縦断して張設してあ る細線材 3 5間に、 隔壁部材 8 8を側方 (矢印方向) から差し込んで入れ、 細線 材 3 5の張力によって隔壁部材 8 8が狭持されることで治具本体 8 0に取り付け られる。 つまり、 細線材 3 5と隔壁部材 8 8 (詳しくは導電層 8 8 1 ) は接触し ている。  A plurality of (particularly seven) partition members 88 are arranged at a required interval so that the conductive layers 881 face each other, and are substantially arranged at substantially the center of the surface of the holding member 87 so that the upper and lower portions of FIG. It extends all the way in the direction and is detachably attached. In the present embodiment, the partition member 88 is attached to the jig body 80 by forming the above-described thin wire 35 with a gap of about 10 m. Mounted at 10 m intervals. The holding member 87 provided with the partition member 88 is inserted into the thin wire 35 extending longitudinally across the opening 81 by inserting the partition member 88 from the side (in the direction of the arrow). The partition member 88 is clamped by the tension of the fine wire 35, so that the partition member 88 is attached to the jig main body 80. That is, the fine wire 35 and the partition member 88 (specifically, the conductive layer 881) are in contact with each other.
製造用治具 8は、保持部材 8 7を上記したようにして治具本体 8 0に取り付け、 電気が細線材 3 5に流れるように陰極線 6 5 0を接続 (図 8では図示省略) した 後に、 槽部 6 1の治具固定用枠体 7内に収容して、 電解液 2 1中に浸けて電铸す る。 なお、 具体的な説明は省略するが、 製造用治具 8のうち開口部 8 1以外の箇 所には、 電解液 2 1が浸からないようにマスキング処理が施される。  The manufacturing jig 8 is attached to the jig body 80 as described above, and after connecting the cathode wires 65 so that electricity flows to the fine wire 35 (not shown in FIG. 8), Then, it is accommodated in the jig fixing frame 7 of the tank portion 61, immersed in the electrolytic solution 21, and is heated. Although a specific description is omitted, masking processing is performed on portions of the manufacturing jig 8 other than the openings 81 so as to prevent the electrolytic solution 21 from being immersed.
電铸装置 1 0 1によれば、 通電することにより細線材 3 5の周りと導電層 8 8 1の表面に電着物が形成される。 そして、 電着物 5 5により細線材 3 5と隔壁部 材 8 8が、所要の程度囲繞されたところで電铸を止める。電着物 5 5の電着量(析 出量) は、 電流や電圧、 電铸時間等によって予め制御可能である。  According to the electrode device 101, an electrodeposit is formed around the fine wire 35 and on the surface of the conductive layer 881 by energizing. Then, when the thin wire 35 and the partition wall member 88 are surrounded to a required extent by the electrodeposit 55, the electrode is stopped. The electrodeposition amount (deposition amount) of the electrodeposit 55 can be controlled in advance by current, voltage, electrodeposition time and the like.
電铸を止めた製造用治具 8は電解液 2 1から取り出され、 再び、 治具本体 8 0 と保持部材 8 7に分解される。 このとき隔壁部材 8 8は、 析出した電着物 5 5に よって細線材 3 5の間にて固定されているので、 保持部材 8 7から分離される。 その後、 電着物 5 5により一体にされた細線材 3 5と隔壁部材 8 8を治具本体 8 0より取り外す。 The production jig 8 with the power turned off is taken out of the electrolytic solution 21 and again disassembled into a jig main body 80 and a holding member 87. At this time, since the partition wall member 88 is fixed between the thin wires 35 by the deposited electrodeposit 55, it is separated from the holding member 87. After that, the thin wire 35 and the partition member 88 integrated by the electrodeposit 55 are removed from the jig body 80.
そして、 電着物 5 5と隔壁部材 8 8に機械加工を施して形状を整えて (図 9参 照)、 電着物 5 5から細線材 3 5を除去する。 なお、 細線材 3 5の除去は、 上記電 铸装置 1 0 0で製造されたものと同様の方法で行うので、 説明は省略する。  Then, the electrodeposit 55 and the partition wall member 88 are machined to shape them (see FIG. 9), and the thin wire 35 is removed from the electrodeposit 55. The removal of the thin wire 35 is performed by the same method as that manufactured by the above-described power supply apparatus 100, and thus the description is omitted.
こうして中空部が複数個 (具体的には 8個) ある電铸管がつくられる。  Thus, an electrode tube having a plurality of hollow parts (specifically, eight) is produced.
この電铸管は、 細線材 3 5を除去して形成された中空部の間に、 仕切るように 隔壁部材 8 8が介在させてあるので、 各中空部の周りを形成する部分ごとに独立 して電気伝導が可能である。  In this electrode tube, a partition wall member 88 is interposed between the hollow portions formed by removing the fine wires 35 so as to partition, so that each of the portions forming the periphery of each hollow portion is independent. It is possible to conduct electricity.
なお、 電铸装置 1 0 1でも、 芯部を金属や合成樹脂等でつくり、 その外面に導 電層 (メツキ (金属層 (膜)) やカーボン等) が設けられた細線材を使用すること ができる。 更に、 細線材の断面形状等も、 電铸装置 1 0 1で示した細線材と同様 に特に限定するものではない。  In addition, even in the electric equipment 101, the core part is made of metal or synthetic resin, and a thin wire with a conductive layer (metal (metal layer (film)), carbon, etc.) provided on the outer surface must be used. Can be. Further, the cross-sectional shape and the like of the thin wire are not particularly limited as in the case of the thin wire shown in the electrode device 101.
本実施の形態では細線材 3 5の間に隔壁部材 8 8を設けて電铸したが、 これは 限定するものではなく、 例えば、 隔壁部材を設けず、 細線材のみの状態で電铸す ることも可能である。  In the present embodiment, the partition wall member 88 is provided between the thin wires 35, and the electrode is provided.

These dimensions can be set arbitrarily within the range where the range is set.
本実施の形態では、 細線材の外面に電铸による金属を電着させて細線材を覆う ようにしたものを示したが、 これは限定するものではなく、 例えば、 細線材の近 傍に通電可能な導体 (金属等) を設けて、 この導体に電铸による金属を電着させ ることで、 細線材も電着する金属によって覆われるようにして電铸管をつくるこ ともできる。 In the present embodiment, an example is shown in which metal is deposited on the outer surface of the fine wire by means of electrodeposition so as to cover the fine wire. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Provide a possible conductor (metal, etc.) and deposit an electrodeposited metal on this conductor. By doing so, it is possible to make an electrode tube so that the thin wire is also covered with the metal to be electrodeposited.
上記実施の形態において電解液は、 スルファミン酸ニッケルを主成分とするも のを使用したが、 電解液はこれに限定するも;のではなく、 析出させる金属の種類 に応じて選択される。 電着 (析出) する金属としては、 例えばニッケル又はその 合金、 鉄又はその合金、 銅又はその合金、 コバルト又はその合金、 タングステン 合金、 微粒子分散金属等の金属をあげることができる。 また、 上記金属を析出さ せる電解液としては、 例えば塩化ニッケル、 硫酸ニッケル、 スルファミン酸第一 鉄、 ホウフッ化第一鉄、 ピロリン酸銅、 硫酸銅、 ホウフッ化銅、 ゲイフッ化銅、 チタンフッ化銅、 アルカノ一ルスルフォン酸銅、 硫酸コバルト、 タングステン酸 ナトリウムなどの水溶液を主成分とする液、 または、 これらの液に炭化ケィ素、 炭化タングステン、 炭化ホウ素、 酸化ジルコニウム、 チッ化ケィ素、 アルミナ、 ダイヤモンドなどの微粉末を分散させた液が使用される。  In the above embodiment, the electrolytic solution mainly contains nickel sulfamate, but the electrolytic solution is not limited to this; the electrolytic solution is selected according to the type of metal to be deposited.

To create a gap between the fine wire and the electrodeposit or surrounding material, and to grasp, pull, suck, physically push, or eject gas or liquid And removed using either method. It can also be removed by dissolving with heat or a solvent.
細線材の除去に際して、 このような方法を用いれば、 例えば、 直径が 1 0 m から 8 5 x mまでの細線材を用いて、 この細線材の外面に 5 m以上 5 0 m以 下の肉厚を有するように形成した電着物または囲繞物からでも、 細線材を除去す ることができる。 従って、 この細線材の除去方法を用いることにより、 例えば、 コンタクトプローブ用の管等として使用可能な微細な内径を有する電鍀管が製造 できる。  If such a method is used to remove the thin wire, for example, using a thin wire having a diameter of 10 m to 85 xm, the outer surface of the thin wire has a thickness of 5 m or more and 50 m or less. The fine wire can also be removed from the electrodeposit or the surrounding object formed to have the shape. Therefore, by using this method for removing a thin wire, for example, an electrode tube having a fine inner diameter that can be used as a tube for a contact probe or the like can be manufactured.
( b ) 細線材に形成される端部側の電着物または囲繞物の量を多くして電铸管を 製造する方法によれば、 例えば、 細線材を電着物または囲繞物から引き抜いたり 押し遣つたりして除去する際に、 治具や工具等を電着物または囲繞物の量を多く した部分の端面等に引っ掛けたりすることができる。 従って、 この場合では、 電 着物または囲繞物を固定した状態にして細線材が除去できるようになるので、 細 線材が除去し易い。  (b) According to the method of manufacturing an electrode tube by increasing the amount of the electrodeposit or the surrounding material formed on the end side of the fine wire, for example, pulling or pushing the fine wire from the electrodeposit or the surrounding material When removing the jig or tool, the jig or tool can be hooked on the end face of the portion where the amount of the electrodeposit or the surrounding object is increased. Therefore, in this case, since the thin wire can be removed while the electrodeposit or the surrounding object is fixed, the thin wire is easily removed.
( c ) 細線材を外方に引っ張って伸ばしたときの横ひずみの変形量が断面積の 5 %以上あるようにした電铸管の製造方法によれば、 細線材と電着物または囲繞物 の間に、 細線材を除去するのに十分な隙間が形成できるので、 細線材が電着物ま たは囲繞物から支障なく除去できる可能性が高い。 仮に横ひずみの変形量が断面 積の 5 %未満しかなかった場合では、 隙間が十分でないので、 除去に際して支障 が生じる場合がある。  (c) According to the method of manufacturing an electrode tube in which the amount of lateral strain deformation when the thin wire is pulled outward and stretched is 5% or more of the cross-sectional area, the thin wire and the electrodeposited material or the surrounding material are In between, a sufficient gap for removing the fine wire can be formed, so that there is a high possibility that the fine wire can be removed from the electrodeposit or the surroundings without any trouble. If the amount of transverse strain deformation is less than 5% of the cross-sectional area, the clearance may not be sufficient, which may hinder removal.
( d ) 外面に導電層が設けられた細線材を用い、 導電層が電铸管の内面に残るよ うに細線材を除去する電铸管の製造方法によれば、 内面に金メツキ等を設けた電 铸管が製造できる。 このような電铸管は、 例えば、 内面に設ける導電層の材質に よって電気伝導率が電着物または囲繞物だけのときょり良好にできるので、 この 場合では電気を伝導するのに適した部品として使用できる。 (d) According to the method for manufacturing a tube using a thin wire having a conductive layer provided on the outer surface and removing the thin wire so that the conductive layer remains on the inner surface of the tube, a gold plating or the like is provided on the inner surface. Can be manufactured. Such a tube is, for example, suitable for a material of a conductive layer provided on an inner surface. Therefore, the electric conductivity can be improved when only the electrodeposit or the surrounding object is used, and in this case, it can be used as a component suitable for conducting electricity.
なお、 内面に電着物または囲繞物とは異なる材質の導電層が設けてある電铸管 や、 外面に、 電着物または囲繞物とは異なる材質の導電層が設けてある細線材に ついても、 同様に電気伝導率が電着物または囲繞物だけのときょり良い電铸管が 形成できる。  It should be noted that even for an electrode tube having a conductive layer made of a material different from that of the electrodeposit or the surrounding material on the inner surface, or a thin wire material having a conductive layer made of a material different from the electrodeposit or the surrounding material on the outer surface, Similarly, when the electric conductivity is only the electrodeposit or the surrounding object, a good electrode tube can be formed.
( e ) 外面側に材質の異なる導電層が少なくとも二層以上形成してある細線材を 用いた電铸管の製造方法によれば、 例えば、 外側の導電層を銅で構成し、 銅と接 する内側の導電層を金で構成して、 電铸によりニッケルが電着物または囲繞物と して形成されるようにできる。 この場合では、 ニッゲルは金よりも銅と密着性が 良く、 銅は金とも密着性が良いので、 密着性の良好な電铸管が形成できる。  (e) According to a method for manufacturing an electrode tube using a thin wire material in which at least two or more conductive layers of different materials are formed on the outer surface side, for example, the outer conductive layer is made of copper and is in contact with copper. The inner conductive layer to be formed is made of gold, so that nickel can be formed as an electrodeposit or a surrounding by electrolysis. In this case, Nigel has better adhesion to copper than gold, and copper also has better adhesion to gold, so that an electrode tube with good adhesion can be formed.
なお、内面に電着物または囲繞物とは異なる材質の導電層が設けてあり、更に、 電着物または囲繞物と上記導電層との間には、 当該導電層とは異なる材質の導電 層が設けてある電铸管や、 外面に、 電着物または囲繞物とは異なる材質の導電層 が設けてあり、 更に、 細線材基部材と上記導電層との間には、 当該導電層とは異 なる材質の導電層が設けてある細線材についても、 同様に電着物または囲繞物と 導電層との密着性の良好な電铸管が形成できる。  Note that a conductive layer of a material different from that of the electrodeposit or the surrounding object is provided on the inner surface, and a conductive layer of a material different from the conductive layer is provided between the electrodeposit or the surrounding object and the conductive layer. A conductive layer of a material different from that of the electrodeposit or the surrounding object is provided on the electrode tube or the outer surface of the electrode tube, and further, the conductive layer is different between the thin wire base member and the conductive layer. In the case of a thin wire provided with a conductive layer made of a material, an electrode tube having good adhesion between the electrodeposit or the surrounding object and the conductive layer can be similarly formed.
( f ) 細線材を除去して形成される中空部を複数個備えたものは、 例えば、 中空 部が一つしか設けられていない管を複数並べて製造されていた部品と置き換えて 使用することができる。 この電铸管によれば、 個々の管を並べて設置する手間を 無くすことができる。 また、 中空部の間の間隔も電着物または囲繞物で固定され ているのでずれない。  (f) In the case of having a plurality of hollow parts formed by removing thin wires, for example, it is possible to replace and use a part manufactured by arranging a plurality of pipes having only one hollow part. it can. According to this electric tube, the trouble of arranging the individual tubes side by side can be eliminated. Also, the gap between the hollow portions does not shift since it is fixed by the electrodeposit or the surrounding object.
( g ) 中空部の間に、 絶縁体の外面に導電層を設けて形成してある隔壁体を介在 させて、 各中空部の周りを形成する部分ごとに独立して電気伝導ができるように してあるものは、 各中空部ごとに独立して電気伝導が可能である。 ( g ) Between the hollow portions, a partition formed by providing a conductive layer on the outer surface of the insulator is interposed, so that electric conduction can be performed independently for each portion formed around each hollow portion. In each of the hollow parts, electric conduction is possible independently for each hollow part.
( h ) 両端側に導電層が設けられていない部分がある細線材は、 この導電層が設 けられていない部分を外方に引っ張るようにすることにより、 引張力が導電層に 直接かかり難くなり、 導電層と基線材とが分離し易く、 また、 導電層と電着物ま たは囲繞物との密着性も損なわれ難い。 (h) For a thin wire that has a portion without a conductive layer at both ends, pulling the portion without the conductive layer outward will apply a tensile force to the conductive layer. It is difficult to apply directly, the conductive layer and the base wire are easily separated, and the adhesion between the conductive layer and the electrodeposit or the surrounding material is not easily impaired.
