Patent ID: 7240426

Claim:
Equipment for soldering and bonding a flexible printed circuit board on a printed circuit board, wherein the flexible printed circuit board is made of thermoplastic resin, the equipment comprising: a heater head for pressing and heating the flexible printed circuit board on the printed circuit board; a jig for preventing the thermoplastic resin composing the flexible printed circuit board from flowing out in a case where the flexible printed circuit is heated by the heater head; and an electrode for supplying electricity to the heater head, wherein the jig and the heater head have a predetermined positional relationship in such a manner that the jig is to be disposed between the flexible printed circuit board and the heater head when the flexible printed circuit board is pressed and heated by the heater head, wherein the jig includes a thin plate having a base plate and a wing plate, wherein the base plate is parallel to a top surface of the heater head to be sandwiched between the flexible printed circuit board and the heater head, wherein the wing plate is disposed on both sides of the base plate to be bent from the base plate, wherein the printed circuit board is rigid, wherein the thin plate is made of SUS stainless steel, wherein the jig further includes a heat sink made of copper, wherein the wing plate is mounted on the heat sink so that heat of the wing plate is conducted to the heat sink, wherein the heater head is mounted on the electrode, and wherein the jig is movably supported by the electrode through an installation member so that the jig is movable in a direction perpendicular to the base plate.
