Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to an experimental apparatus for the electronic circuit, especially relates to the improvement of the electronic circuit experiment board.

2. Description of the Prior Art

The currently used experimental apparatus for the electronic circuit has lots of deficiency which is as follows:

1. Experimental Table of Electronic Circuit

The experimental table of the electronic circuit in laboratories has the following demerits.

a. We use four plugs and jacks in experimental table to replace the intersection point of four lines in electrical circuit while using the plug wiring mode of elastic contact. According to experiment rules there is only one potential in the same point, while the different potential often appears because of the contact failure to different extent between four plugs and jacks in actual experiment, which leads to failure of experiments.

b. The design of large mesa structure increase the experiment cost and reduce the teaching effect, because students' practical chance in the based-on-team organization of experiment is insufficient, and the individuation creativity in the procedures and results of the experiment is difficult to exert.

c. Less link points for circuit connection can't support the complex experiment.

d. Special plug and wire cause high cost, and it's impossible to adjust the length of wire, which results in the confusion of wiring system and poor visual impression.

2. The Bread Board

The bread board was introduced from abroad, and has the advantage of high connection speed on wiring access. It has the arrangement of five jacks allocating in a row outside the same interconnect point of the wire, but one spring lamination inside the bread board, which results in the confusion of wiring system and poor visual impression. Furthermore, the phenomenon of simultaneous contact failure of multi-point often appears in the process of inserting some straight or curved wiring with irregular round simultaneously in the same spring lamination because the elastic contact method of the connecting wiring still be used, which increases the difficulty of failure query, and lead to the interruption of experimental procedure finally. In sum, the experimental apparatus for the electronic circuit which adopt the elastic contact method of wiring connection have some weakness of contact failure, lack of vibration-proof ability, and the poor durability.

3. The Experiment Board of Printed Circuit on Double Sides

The experiment board of printed circuit on double sides is mainly prevalent in electronic amateur and electronic scientific research units. It is inconvenient to connect wiring by means of welding, and the method is difficult to use for beginners and students of primary and middle school, which cause the low efficiency of the experiment. Meanwhile, the problems of false welding and short circuit, which frequently encountered in the experiment shorten the service life, because of the confusion of wiring system.

4. Special Experimental Device

The special experimental device which is designed in factory according to the teaching brief and teaching content was used in laboratory of some specialized cademies and vocational schools, but its main defect is apt to be the bad universal use and high investment, so the experimental device will be eliminated once setting new major and renewing contents of the textbook because of the rapid speed of the development of electronic technology, electronic components of new generation and the variation of talents demand along with the development of market economy. Therefore, the service life of general experimental device was very short, which will bring more risks of the investment.

Besides, it has some disadvantages in experiment such as lack of ability in splicing and dilatancy, arranging elements in double sides, and multilayer wiring in the existing experimental equipment and apparatus for the electronic circuit

Therefore, it is quite necessary to provide a new kind of general experimental board for electronic circuit which has the advantages of good contact performance, strong visual impression, high experimental efficiency, long service life and strong ability of growth.

There are circlip grooves 18 in the corner of the base plate 1 for the use of setting bracket to support the base plate in lateral direction or vertical direction. The base plate 1 can be made with organic glass material which has superior performance such as good crack resistance, long age resistance, high optical transmittance, high electrical insulating, dimensional stability, corrosion resistance, and secondary processability. Therefore, the base plate 1 has the advantages of firm and durable performance, stable performance, bright and transparency, low cost in manufacture and use, and long service life.

The square circlip grooves 15 is set with horizontal direction in the position of binding post inserting holes 13 which lies in the upper surface of the lower plate 12. There are circlips 16 of special-shaped stainless steel wire orientation in the circlip grooves. The main effect of the circlips 16 is locking the binding post 2, which stop the binding post 2 slipping into the other side when rotate the screw lever 23 of the binding post from the back of the experimental board. Each side of the circlips 16 lies in the same plane tightening inward in free state, while a section of circlips 16 will insert into the positioning groove 24 of the binding post 2 in labour hour. The apparatus has the advantage of reliable location and accord with the requirements of strength. The material of stainless steel could be selected to make circlips 16, which can prevent the pollution of corrosion in the experiment board, and improve the insulation property.

The metal part of the handling lever 3 is made of stainless steel wire, which has the cylindrical part in the upper, the flat part in the lower, and the isosceles triangle inclined plane 31 in the end of the lower part. The horizontal component generated from the inclined plane 31 will push the circlips 16 open. The tip of the handling lever is blunt after special treatment, which can prevent injury of hands. The juncture of the upper and the lower part make the location role, that is the binding post 2 can be pull out once insert into the right position. The handle part of the handling lever designed to flat streamlined shape with thin section in the upper and thick section in the lower is made of plastic, which is different with screwdriver.

The splicing card 5 includes T-shaped splicing card 51 and cross-shaped splicing card 52. The shape of T-shaped splicing card 51 can disperse the strength of the junction, which has elastic clips 511 in ends, and the structure and effect is the same with the elastic clip in integrated circuit board of the bracket 4. The cross-shaped splicing card 52 includes the upper card 521, the lower card 522, and screw lever 523, and the shape of the upper card 521 is coincident with the lower card 522. For the purpose of increasing intensity, the four-end of the card is narrow and thin, and the shape of the cross section is crux, which is broad and thick in center and cross to the circular platform. The splicing center of four basal plates can be combined together with the upper card 521 and the lower card 522 through the screw lever 523, that is it can put splicing card together to form all kinds of splice plate such as di-splice plate 53, tri-splice plate 54, tetra-splice plate 55 and multi-splice plate (unshown in drawing).

For the purpose of increasing the utility of bracket 4 and splicing card 5, the distance between the binding post inserting holes 13 in surrounding of the base plate 1 and the edge line of the experiment board is equation.

FIG. 7 is the resolving and packing schematic diagram of the component composite board 6 in process of decomposing and assembling. The component composite board 6 includes the plate seat 61, the multipolar component 62, the binding post 63, printed circuit board 64, and connector pin 65. The plate seat 61 is sulciform, which has the runner 611 in both sides. It has the block claw (unlabeled) in two ends of the runner, and the block claw in one side has elasticity, which make the printed circuit board sliding in and out convenient. The space setting in the lower part of the plate seat 61 can accept the solder side of the printed circuit board. The backboard (unlabeled) is under the plate seat, which has the rotundum (unlabeled) placing the screw 66 in the center of the plate seat. The binding post 63 has four inserting holes, and the lower end is a circular cylinder foot. Each electrode of the multipolar component 62 correspond to each binding post 63 with the corresponding numbers respectively. The multipolar component 62 and the binding post 63 are welded in the printed circuit board 64 designed and manufactured before. There are screw holes (unlabeled) matching to the screw 66 in the top of the connector pin 65, and there are ring form location notch 651 in the upper part of the connector pin 65. The depth of the location notch 651 is lower than the radius of the circlips 16 in binding post inserting holes 13, so the location notch 651 matching with the circlips 16 in binding post inserting holes 13 of the experiment board make partly orientating function to the connector pin 65. The connector pin 65 of the component composing board 6 can be set with one or more than according to the demand, and the space of the connector pins is the same with the space of the binding post inserting holes 13 in the experiment board.

With the reference of FIG. 8, the other example of the electronic circuit experiment board in the present invention is that the base plate adopt two pieces of epoxy resin board, and the size of the board and the parameter of the binding post inserting holes and the handling lever holes maintained invariably. There is no circlip groove in the middle of the board, and have no stainless steel circlips, but have a intermediate plate 19 using nylon material. There are nylon circlips 191 closing to the binding post inserting holes 13, which is integrated with the intermediate plate 19, and slightly thinner than the intermediate plate 19. It is that not only reduce the cost, but also reduce the trivial process fixing the circlips and improve the holistic insulation property. The elastic clip 411 of the integrated circuit board 41 of the bracket 4 in this example is changed to plane clip pinning with screw, and the elastic clip 511 of the T-shaped splicing card 51 is changed in the same way. The design of the bracket has no runner, no motion arm 42, but connect the back end of the integrated circuit board 41 with the pedestal bearing. For the purpose of increasing the friction force the junction in the back end of the integrated circuit board 41 is designed to round platform, and the cuboid screw head hide into the groove of the integrated circuit board, but the pedestal bearing maintain the same. The ability of the supporting and inverting in this example is not changed, and flexible function is decreased, which reduce the cost greatly.

With the reference of FIG. 9, another example of the electronic circuit experiment board in this present invention is that the base plate 1 is composed of two pieces of epoxy resin board or organic glass board, and a nylon intermediate plate 19. The size of the board and the binding post holes is the same with the example before, but without handling lever holes. The structure of three pieces of board is different with each other. The lower board 12 only has the binding post inserting holes 13 with the improved strength. The nylon intermediate plate 19 in the middle pass through the nylon locating circlips 161 with protruding in inclined plane by clipping, and the direction of locating circlips 161 is the same with the direction of the diagonal of the binding post inserting holes 13. The shift lever lies in the top of the circlip, so the binding post can be taken out by turning nylon circlip with nail or breaker. When making the binding post inserting holes 13 in the upper board 11, we can make a rectangle circlip hole (unlabeled) in the 45 dimension along the lateral of the binding post inserting holes 13 at the same time. Put the holes together to make the nylon locating circlips 161 inside the circlip holes, and leave activity space 162 behind the shift lever. The position of the toroid positioning groove 24 in the middle of the binding post 2 hug to the positioning ring 25. The toroid positioning groove of the connector pin in the component composite plate 6 is canceling correspondingly(unshown in figure). The integrated circuit board 41 of the bracket 4 in the example is produced with stainless steel by punching and shearing, the T-shaped splicing card 5 is produced in the same way. The elastic clips 411 and elastic clips 511 is changed to the plane clips fixing with screw. Open rotundum in the upper clip, and open screw holes in the lower clip after punching to claw downward. Cancel the sliding groove and the motion arm, and connect the back end of integrated circuit board 41 with the pedestal bearing. The screw hide in the drop pit of the back end punching outward. For the purpose of increasing friction there are hard rubber septum inspissating between the integrated circuit board 41 and the fulcrum bar head of the pedestal bearing, and the pedestal bearing maintain the same.
