Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はプリント配線基板の接続構造及び該接続構造を有する光学機器に関し、更に詳細には、フレキシブルプリント基板(以下にはフレキと略記する)と他のプリント配線基板(フレキもしくはリジッド基板)との接続部分の厚みが大きくならず且つ剥離する恐れのない良好な接続を行うことのできるプリント配線基板接続構造と、該接続構造を備えた光学機器に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
フレキとリジッド基板とを電気的に接続する場合やフレキ同士を電気的に接続する方法として、▲1▼コネクタを使用するコネクタ利用接続方法と、▲2▼コネクタを使用せずに両者の接続端子を直接に溶融接合してしまう直接接続方法と、が知られている。
【0003】
図4は一眼レフカメラ用レンズ鏡筒における電気実装において実施されているフレキ41とリジッド基板44との直接接続構造の要部の断面を示した図である。同図において、42はフレキ41に形成された接続端子パターン、45は不図示の位置決め穴の周囲に形成した補強用パターン、46はフレキ41のカバーレイ、44は該フレキ41と接続されるべきリジッド基板、43は該リジッド基板44の面に形成された接続端子パターン、である。両者の接続端子パターン42及び43は公知のようにハンダメッキされており、上記の直接接続方法では両者を互いに圧接させるとともに加熱して該パターンのハンダを溶融させることにより両パターン42及び43を互いに接合させてフレキ41とリジッド基板44との電気的接続を行っている。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
上述した▲1▼及び▲2▼の方法には次のような問題点があった。
【0005】
(1) ▲1▼のコネクタ利用接続構造では、コネクタの厚みが大きいので二つの基板の電気的接続部の厚みが大きくなってしまうため、両基板の電気的接続部の厚みを大きくすることができない構造の機器においては実施できない。また、コネクタに挿入するべき方の基板がフレキであった場合(多くの場合そうなるが)、該フレキのコネクタ挿入部分には硬質の絶縁板を裏打ちしておかなければ挿入が難しくなるので、該絶縁板の裏打ちにコストがかかるという問題点がある。
【0006】
(2)二つのプリント配線基板の接続端子を互いに加熱溶融接合してしまう上記▲2▼の方法では次のような問題点があった。
【0007】
1)両基板のそれぞれの接続端子を互いに正確に合致させるように位置決めするためには精度の高い位置決め作業を要求される。
【0008】
2)フレキ41とリジッド基板44のそれぞれの接続端子が配置されている接続端子配置部の平坦度が必要であるが、補強パターンを周囲に形成してある位置決め穴はカバーレイ46及び補強パターン45の厚みだけ接続端子配置部の厚みよりも厚くなってしまうため、該位置決め穴を該接続端子配置部からかなり離れた位置に設ける必要があった。このため相互接合部の必要面積が大きくなってしまい、機器の大型化を招くことになってしまう。その上、該両基板を接合のために加熱した時に接合部全体を均一の温度に加熱することがができなくなり、加熱時の温度が低かった部分では接合後に剥離が生じる危険性が高かった。
【0009】
同様に、接続端子の数が多い場合にも接続端子配置部の面積が大きくなるので機器の大型化を招くばかりでなく該接続端子配置部全体を均一温度にすることが難しくなり、上記と同様に接合後に剥離を生じる危険性があった。
【0010】
3)両基板の相互接合部の面積を小さくするために該位置決め穴を接続端子配置部のすぐ横に配置した場合には、上記のように該位置決め穴の周囲の部分の厚みが該接続端子配置部の厚みよりもかなり厚いため、両基板の接合のために加熱した時に厚みの薄い部分と厚みの厚い部分とで温度差が生じ、該位置決め穴の周囲における接合強度が著しく悪くなり、この部分から剥離が生じる危険性が高かった。そこで、該位置決め穴の周囲の部分のハンダを充分に溶融させるために加熱温度を高くすると、接続端子のハンダが必要以上に流動化して隣接接続端子との間でハンダブリッジを形成して隣接接続端子間で短絡を生じさせてしまうという問題が起こってくる危険性があった。
【0011】
【発明の目的】
請求項1の発明の目的は、二つのプリント配線基板の接続端子を直接に溶融接合することによって該両基板を電気的に接続する接続構造において該位置決め穴を該接続端子配置部に近い位置に設けることにより加熱加圧面積を小さくすることによって均一な接合が可能となる改善された接続構造を提供することである。
【0012】
さらに、請求項の発明の目的は、該位置決め穴において生じる可能性のある破断を未然に防止するために該位置決め穴の周囲に補強パターンを形成し、また、接合時に該接続端子配置部の平坦度をよくすることができる接続構造を提供することである。
【0013】
請求項の発明の目的は、該両基板の該接続端子同士を接合した後に該接合部の剥離が生じないように高い接合強度を以て両基板が接合される接続構造を提供することである。
【0014】
請求項の発明の目的は、該両基板の該接続端子同士を接合した際に隣接接続端子間にハンダブリッジによる短絡が生じないようにすることができる接続構造を提供することである。
【0015】
請求項の発明の目的は、プリント配線基板とフレキシブルプリント基板のそれぞれの接続端子を直接に溶融接合する接続構造を有している光学機器において両基板の接合部分の面積が大型化せずに該接続端子の接合強度を大きくすることができる接続構造を有した光学機器を提供することである。
【0016】
さらに、請求項の発明の目的は、プリント配線基板とフレキシブルプリント基板のそれぞれの接続端子を直接に溶融接合する接続構造を有している光学機器において該接続端子近傍に設けた位置決め穴周辺で破断を生じない接続構造を有した光学機器を提供することである。
【0017】
請求項の発明の目的は、プリント配線基板とフレキシブルプリント基板のそれぞれの接続端子を直接に溶融接合する接続構造を有している光学機器において接合強度が高い接続構造を有した光学機器を提供することである。
【0018】
請求項の発明の目的は、プリント配線基板とフレキシブルプリント基板のそれぞれの接続端子を直接に溶融接合する接続構造を有している光学機器において接合時にハンダブリッジによる短絡を生じないようにすることができる接続構造を有した光学機器を提供することである。
【0019】
【課題を解決するための手段】
前記目的を達成するために、請求項1の発明は、「第一及び第二のプリント配線基板のそれぞれの接続端子互いに加熱溶融接合することにより該両プリント配線基板相互に電気的に接続するプリント配線基板の接続構造において、該第一のプリント配線基板は、多数の第一の接続端子と、該第一の接続端子の両端の半径方向外側位置に形成された第一の位置決め穴を有し、該第二のプリント配線基板はフレキシブルプリント基板として構成されており該第一の接続端子に重ね合わされる多数の第二の接続端子と、該第二の接続端子の両端の半径方向外側位置に形成されていて該第一の位置決め穴に重ね合わされる第二の位置決め穴を有しており、該第二の位置決め穴の周囲には接合強度増大用の補強パターンが形成され、該第二の位置決め穴の周囲の補強パターンと該第二の接続端子とが、単一のカバーレイ無被覆領域として露出されていることを特徴とするプリント配線基板の接続構造」を提供する。
【0020】
本発明によれば、該位置決め穴が該接続端子の両端の半径方向外側位置に配置されているので該両基板の接合の際に加熱及び加圧する面積を小さくすることができ、従って両基板の接合部分をほぼ均一温度に加熱することができるため、接合後に接合部分の強度の低下を防止することができる。また、該フレキシブルプリント基板では該接続端子と該位置決め穴の周囲とがカバーレイ無被覆領域として露出しているので接合されるべき部分の平坦度が高くなるため接合後に剥離を生じにくい接合を行うことができる。
【0022】
さらに、本発明によれば、該接続端子と該補強パターンとが同一平面をなしているので接合時の加圧状態での圧力分布が均一となるので接合強度が高くて剥離を生じる恐れのない接続構造が提供される。
【0023】
前記目的を達成するために請求項の発明は、「請求項のプリント配線基板の接続構造において、該第一の接続端子配置部の長手方向の両端位置と該第二の接続端子配置部の長手方向の両端位置には接合強度増大用の第一、第二の補強端子が形成されており、該第二の補強端子は該補強パターンに連なって形成されていることを特徴とするプリント配線基板の接続構造」を提供する。
【0024】
本発明によれば、該補強パターンが該第二の補強端子に連なって形成されているので、該両接続端子を互いに溶融圧着した時に該両補強端子の過剰な溶融ハンダが該補強パターンの方に流れるため、隣接接続端子間でのハンダブリッジが生じる恐れがなく、また該両補強端子のハンダ量が少ない場合には、補強パターンから溶融ハンダが流れてくるので精度のよい接合状態と高い接合強度が得られる。
【0025】
前記目的を達成するために請求項の発明は、「請求項1のプリント配線基板の接続構造において、該第二の接続端子(すなわちフレキではない方のプリント配線基板の接続端子)の長さは該第一の接続端子(フレキの接続端子)の長さよりも長いことを特徴とするプリント配線基板の接続構造」を提供する。
【0026】
本発明によれば、該両接続端子を互いに溶融圧着した時に過剰な溶融ハンダが該第二の接続端子に沿って流れるので該第一の接続端子においてハンダブリッジを生じる恐れがなく、良好な接続を行うことができる。
【0027】
前記目的を達成するために請求項の発明は、「第一及び第二のプリント配線基板を内蔵し、該第一及び第二のプリント配線基板はそれぞれの接続端子を互いに加熱溶融接合することにより電気的に接続され、該両プリント配線基板のうちの少なくとも一方のプリント配線基板がフレキシブルプリント基板である光学機器において、該第一のプリント配線基板は、多数の第一の接続端子と、該第一の接続端子の両端の半径方向外側位置に形成された第一の位置決め穴を有し、該第二のプリント配線基板は、該第一の接続端子に重ね合わされる多数の第二の接続端子と、該第二の接続端子の両端の半径方向外側位置に形成されていて該第一の位置決め穴に重ね合わされる第二の位置決め穴を有しており、該第二の位置決め穴の周囲には接合強度増大用の補強パターンが形成され、該第二の位置決め穴の周囲の補強パターンと該第二の接続端子とが、単一のカバーレイ無被覆領域として露出ていることを特徴とする光学機器」を提供する。
【0028】
本発明によれば、フレキとリジッド基板もしくはフレキ同士を互いに直接に接合することによって両者を電気的に接続する接続構造を有した光学機器において、接続端子配置部両端の半径方向外側位置に位置決め穴を設けたので両者を接合する時の加熱加圧面を小さくすることができ、従って、接合強度が高くて剥離が生じにくい接続構造を有した光学機器を提供できる。
【0030】
さらに、本発明によれば、フレキの接続端子と該補強用パターンとが同一平面になるため該フレキと該プリント配線基板との接合時に接合部の平面部分が大きくなるので強度の高い接合部を有した光学機器が提供される。
【0031】
前記目的を達成するために請求項の発明は、「請求項の構成を有する光学機器において、円弧形状を有する該接続端子配置部の長手方向の両端部には他方のプリント配線基板との接合強度を大きくするための補強用端子が配置されており、該補強用端子は該補強用パターンに連なって形成されていることを特徴とする光学機器」を提供する。
【0032】
本発明によれば、該補強パターンが該補強端子に連なって形成されているので、該両接続端子を互いに溶融圧着した時に該補強端子の過剰な溶融ハンダが該補強パターンの方に流れるため、隣接接続端子間でのハンダブリッジが生じる恐れがなく、また補強端子のハンダ量が少ない場合には、補強パターンから溶融ハンダが流れてくる為精度のよい接合状態と高い接合強度の接続構造を有した光学機器が提供される。
【0033】
前記目的を達成するために請求項の発明は、「請求項の構成を有する光学機器において、フレキシブルプリント基板ではない方のプリント配線基板の接続端子の長さはフレキシブルプリント基板の接続端子の長さよりも長いことを特徴とする光学機器」を提供する。
【0034】
本発明によれば、フレキシブルプリント基板ではない方のプリント配線基板の接続端子が長いので接合時にフレキシブルプリント基板の接続端子の溶融ハンダが該プリント配線基板の接続端子に沿って流れるためハンダブリッジが生ぜず、従って短絡の生じない接続構造を有した光学機器を提供できる。
【0035】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下に図1〜図3を参照して本発明の一実施形態について説明する。
【0036】
図1〜図3は本発明を適用して構成されたプリント配線基板の接続構造と該接続構造を有した光学機器としての一眼レフカメラ用レンズ鏡筒とを示したものである。
【0037】
図3に示したレンズ鏡筒は像ぶれ防止装置(防振装置)を内蔵した防振機能付きズームレンズ鏡筒として構成されている。同図において、該鏡筒の中心軸線より上の図は該鏡筒の画角が広角状態(ワイド)に設定されている場合の断面図、中心軸線より下側の図は該鏡筒の画角が望遠状態(テレ)に設定されている場合の断面図、である。
【0038】
同図において、1は1群レンズL1を保持して光軸方向に沿って移動しつつ回転する1群レンズ保持筒、2は1群レンズ保持筒1とヘリコイド係合していてカメラ使用者の手により回転操作される回転のみ可能なマニュアル操作リング、3は外周面にカメラ使用者の手で操作される把持部を有していて回転のみ可能に該リング2に嵌装されているズームリング、4は鏡筒外装体上に設けられた防振スイッチ、5は同じく鏡筒外装体上に設けられたAF(自動合焦)/MF(手動合焦)切換操作スイッチ、6は該レンズ鏡筒を不図示のカメラボディに装着するための公知のマウント、7は不図示のカメラボディ内の電子回路及び電源と該鏡筒内の電子回路及びモータ類とを接続するために該マウント6に設けられた公知の電気接点ブロック、8は該鏡筒内に設けられた電子回路を構成している回路基板(以下にはメイン基板と略記する)、9は前述の防振装置の一部を構成する振動センサすなわち振動検知装置、10は像ぶれ補正レンズL2を光軸に対して直交する方向に微小移動させて結像面の像ぶれを補正するための像ぶれ補正用アクチュエータユニット、11は該像ぶれ補正用アクチュエータユニット10を制御するための電子回路を搭載している像ぶれ補正用電子回路基板(以下にはサブ基板と略記する)、12はメイン基板8とサブ基板11とに両端を接続されていて両基板上の電子回路間で信号伝達や給電を行うために鏡筒内に配置された後述のフレキ、13は不図示のフレキを介してメイン基板8上の電子回路から制御される絞り装置用電磁アクチュエータ、14はサブ基板11等を鏡筒前面側から覆い隠すために該像ぶれ補正ユニットの前面に取り付けられた円環形の化粧板、L3は第三群レンズ、L4は第四群レンズ、L5は第五群レンズ、L6は第六群レンズ、である。
【0039】
像ぶれ補正レンズL2及び前記アクチュエータユニット10並びにサブ基板11等は公知の像ぶれ補正ユニットを構成している。なお、この公知の像ぶれ補正ユニットの動作は既によく知られているものであるから説明を省略する。
【0040】
図1は上述のレンズ鏡筒におけるフレキ12の先端部と該サブ基板11との接続構造を拡大して示したものである。なお、本図においてサブ基板11はフレキ12との接続面の裏側からの透視図で描かれており、本来見えるべき接続面の裏側の配線パターンや該基板上の電気部品等の図示を省略してある。
【0041】
サブ基板11は像ぶれ補正ユニットを担持した鏡筒の前端部の円環形端板面に接着固定されており、円弧形に構成された接続端子配置部を有している。該接続端子配置部には該配置部の円弧に対して直角方向(すなわち該円弧の曲率中心に関してほぼ放射方向)に伸びる多数の接続端子24が互いに一定間隔毎に且つ櫛歯状に配置され、円弧形の該接続端子配置部の両端位置にはフレキ12との接合強度を高くするための補強端子25(該接続端子24とは電気的に独立している)が形成されている。
【0042】
位置決め穴21及び22と補強端子25と接続端子24は単一の開口領域23内に露出している。
【0043】
また、島状に独立した補強パターン26及び27が形成されており、該補強パターン26及び27によりフレキ12と該基板11との接合強度を更に強化するようになっている。
【0044】
次に、図1及び2を参照して該サブ基板11に接合されるフレキ12について説明する。図2はフレキ12の全体の平面形状を示したものである。フレキ12は該サブ基板11の接続端子配置部に重ね合される円弧形の接続端子配置部38と、前述のメイン基板8に接合される接続端子配置部39と、前述の像ぶれ補正用アクチュエータユニット10に接続される接続端子配置部37と、を有している。サブ基板11の接続端子配置部に重ね合わされる接続端子配置部38は該サブ基板11の接続端子配置部と同じ曲率の円弧形に構成されるとともに同じ周方向長さ及び同じ構成を有している。
【0045】
円弧形に構成された接続端子配置部38には該配置部の円弧に対して直角方向(すなわち該円弧の曲率中心に関してほぼ放射方向)に伸びる多数の接続端子31が互いに一定間隔ごとに且つ櫛歯状に配置され、フレキ12の接続端子31をサブ基板11の接続端子24に接合する時には各接続端子31がサブ基板11の接続端子24に重ね合わされる。該接続端子配置部38の両端にはサブ基板11との接合強度を高くするための補強端子32(該接続端子31とは電気的に独立している)が形成されており、両補強端子32はサブ基板11とフレキ12との接合時にはサブ基板11の補強端子25に重ね合わされる。両補強端子32はそれ自身の位置よりも半径方向外側位置に設けられた位置決め穴33及び34の周囲の補強パターン35及び36と一体に形成されている。位置決め穴33及び34はフレキ12とサブ基板11との接合時にはサブ基板11の位置決め穴21及び22に重ね合わされる位置に形成されている。位置決め穴33及び34は円弧形の接続端子配置部よりわずかに半径方向外側の位置にあるが、該位置決め穴は接続端子31の配置位置よりも円周方向に充分に離れた位置にあるとともに補強パターン35及び36で周囲を補強されているので、フレキ12と該基板11との接合後やフレキ12の取扱作業中に該位置決め穴33及び34の穴縁(ふち)から亀裂を生じる恐れはなく、また、位置決め穴33及び34の穴縁に仮に亀裂が生じたとしても該位置決め穴と接続端子31とは充分に離れているので該亀裂が接続端子31の配置位置に及ぶ危険性はない。位置決め穴33及び34の周囲の補強パターン35及び36とは別に更に補強パターン28及び29が形成されており、該補強パターン28及び29がサブ基板11の補強パターン26及び27に接合されることによりフレキ12とサブ基板11との接合強度を更に強化するようになっている。
【0046】
フレキ12の接続端子部38では図1に示すように二点鎖線で囲まれた領域30がカバーレイ無被覆領域となっており、この領域30内で露出している接続端子31の長さはサブ基板11の接続端子24の長さよりも短くなっている。これは、フレキ12の接続端子31をサブ基板11の接続端子24に重ね合わせて加熱加圧した際に該接続端子31の溶融ハンダがサブ基板11の接続端子24の端子方向に沿って流れるようにすることによりフレキ側において隣接端子間でハンダブリッジが生じないようにするためである。
【0047】
上記の構成を有するフレキ12をサブ基板11に接合する時には、サブ基板11の位置決め穴21及び22に挿入した位置決めピンをフレキ12の位置決め穴33及び34に挿入すればサブ基板11の各接続端子24にフレキ12の各接続端子31が自然に重なり合うので、この状態で領域30と同形の不図示の加熱加圧用治具により両者を挟圧すると同時に加熱して接続端子24及び31を溶融接合せしめるとともに両者の補強端子25及び32を溶融接合し更に両者の補強パターン35、36、26〜29を溶融接合させる。
【0048】
フレキ12の接続端子部とサブ基板11の接続端子部とを重ね合わせて加熱及び加圧した時にフレキ12の接続端子31はサブ基板11の接続端子24よりも当接長さが短いので、該接続端子31の溶融ハンダは隣接接続端子側には流れずに接続端子24の端子方向に流れ、従って、フレキ12の側で接続端子間のハンダブリッジが生じる恐れはない。
【0049】
また、フレキ12の接続端子とサブ基板11の接続端子とを重ね合わせて加熱及び加圧した時に両者の補強端子及び補強パターンも互いに重ね合わされて加熱されるので溶融するが、補強端子は補強パターンと連なって形成されているため、補強端子のハンダ量が少ない場合には補強パターンから溶融ハンダが流れてくるので補強端子における接合強度が不足することはない。
【0050】
なお、フレキ12の接続端子とサブ基板11の接続端子とを重ね合わせて加熱及び加圧した時に接続端子配置部と位置決め穴の周辺とでは温度差が生じるが、位置決め穴は接続端子配置部の両端の外側位置にあって接続端子31とは離れているので、この温度差が接続端子の接合に悪影響をもたらすことはない。
【0051】
なお、前記実施形態では、本発明のプリント基板接続構造を有した光学機器について例を示したが、本発明の接続構造を有する機器は光学機器に限るものではない。
【0052】
【発明の効果】
請求項1の発明によれば、該位置決め穴が該接続端子の両端の半径方向外側位置に配置されているので該両基板の接合の際に加熱及び加圧する面積を小さくすることができ、従って両基板の接合部分をほぼ均一温度に加熱することができるため、接合後に接合部分の強度の低下を防止することができる。また、該フレキシブルプリント基板では該接続端子と該位置決め穴の周囲とがカバーレイ無被覆領域として露出しているので接合されるべき部分の平坦度が高くなるため接合後に剥離を生じにくい接合を行うことができる。

請求項の発明によれば、該補強パターンが該補強端子に連なって形成されているので、該両接続端子を互いに溶融圧着した時に該補強端子の過剰な溶融ハンダが該補強パターンの方に流れるため、隣接接続端子間でのハンダブリッジが生じる恐れがなく、また補強端子のハンダ量が少ない場合には、補強パターンから溶融ハンダが流れてくるので、精度のよい接合状態と高い接合強度が得られる。
請求項の発明によれば、該両接続端子を互いに溶融圧着した時に過剰な溶融ハンダが該第二の接続端子に沿って流れるので該第一の接続端子においてハンダブリッジを生じる恐れがなく、良好な接続を行うことができる。

【0056】
さらに、請求項の発明によれば、フレキの接続端子と該補強用パターンとが同一平面になるため該フレキと該プリント配線基板との接合時に接合部の平面部分が大きくなるので強度の高い接合部を有した光学機器が提供される。
【0057】
請求項の発明によれば、該補強パターンが該補強端子に連なって形成されているので、該両接続端子を互いに溶融圧着した時に該補強端子の過剰な溶融ハンダが該補強パターンの方に流れるため、隣接接続端子間でのハンダブリッジが生じる恐れがなく、また補強端子のハンダ量が少ない場合には、補強パターンから溶融ハンダが流れてくるので、精度のよい接合状態と高い接合強度の接続構造を有した光学機器が提供される。
【0058】
請求項の発明によれば、フレキシブルプリント基板ではない方のプリント配線基板の接続端子が長いので接合時にフレキシブルプリント基板の接続端子の溶融ハンダが該プリント配線基板の接続端子に沿って流れるためハンダブリッジが生ぜず、従って短絡の生じない接続構造を有した光学機器を提供できる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a connection structure of a printed wiring board and an optical device having the connection structure, and more particularly, to a connection between a flexible printed board (hereinafter abbreviated as flexible) and another printed wiring board (flexible or rigid board). The present invention relates to a printed wiring board connection structure capable of performing a good connection without increasing the thickness of a connection portion and without the possibility of peeling, and an optical apparatus having the connection structure.
[0002]
[Prior art]
When electrically connecting the flexible board to the rigid board or as a method for electrically connecting the flexible boards, there are two methods: (1) a connector-using connection method using a connector, and (2) a connection terminal between the two without using a connector. And a direct connection method in which they are directly melt-bonded.
[0003]
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a cross section of a main part of a direct connection structure between a flexible board 41 and a rigid board 44 which is implemented in electrical mounting in a lens barrel for a single-lens reflex camera. In the figure, reference numeral 42 denotes a connection terminal pattern formed on the flexible 41, reference numeral 45 denotes a reinforcing pattern formed around a positioning hole (not shown), reference numeral 46 denotes a coverlay of the flexible 41, and reference numeral 44 denotes a connection with the flexible 41. The rigid substrate 43 is a connection terminal pattern formed on the surface of the rigid substrate 44. The connection terminal patterns 42 and 43 of both are solder-plated in a known manner, and in the direct connection method described above, the two patterns 42 and 43 are connected to each other by pressing the two together and heating to melt the solder of the pattern. The electrical connection between the flexible board 41 and the rigid board 44 is performed by bonding.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The above methods (1) and (2) have the following problems.
[0005]
(1) In the connector-using connection structure of (1), since the thickness of the connector is large, the thickness of the electrical connection portion between the two substrates is increased. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the thickness of the electrical connection portion between the two substrates. This cannot be performed for equipment that cannot be used. In addition, when the board to be inserted into the connector is flexible (as is often the case), it becomes difficult to insert the connector into the connector of the flexible board unless it is lined with a hard insulating plate. There is a problem that the backing of the insulating plate is costly.
[0006]
(2) The method (2) in which the connection terminals of the two printed wiring boards are heat-fused to each other has the following problems.
[0007]
1) A highly accurate positioning operation is required to position the connection terminals of both substrates so as to match each other exactly.
[0008]
2) The flatness of the connection terminal arrangement portion where the respective connection terminals of the flexible board 41 and the rigid board 44 are arranged is required. However, the positioning holes around which the reinforcing patterns are formed are covered with the coverlay 46 and the reinforcing patterns 45. Therefore, the positioning hole needs to be provided at a position far away from the connection terminal disposing portion because the thickness becomes larger than the thickness of the connection terminal disposing portion. For this reason, the required area of the interconnecting portion is increased, and the size of the device is increased. In addition, when the two substrates were heated for bonding, the entire bonded portion could not be heated to a uniform temperature, and there was a high risk of peeling after bonding in portions where the temperature during heating was low.
[0009]
Similarly, even when the number of connection terminals is large, the area of the connection terminal arrangement portion becomes large, which not only causes an increase in the size of the device but also makes it difficult to bring the entire connection terminal arrangement portion to a uniform temperature. There was a risk of peeling after bonding.
[0010]
3) When the positioning hole is disposed immediately beside the connection terminal arranging portion in order to reduce the area of the interconnecting portion between the two substrates, the thickness of the portion around the positioning hole is reduced as described above. Since the thickness is much larger than the thickness of the arrangement portion, when heated for bonding the two substrates, a temperature difference occurs between the thin portion and the thick portion, and the bonding strength around the positioning hole is significantly deteriorated. The risk of peeling from the part was high. Therefore, when the heating temperature is increased in order to sufficiently melt the solder around the positioning hole, the solder of the connection terminal fluidizes more than necessary and a solder bridge is formed between the adjacent connection terminal and the adjacent connection. There is a risk that a problem of causing a short circuit between terminals may occur.
[0011]

Claim 2 It is an object of the present invention to provide a connection structure in which both substrates are joined with high joining strength so that the joints are not separated after joining the connection terminals of the two substrates.
[0014]
Claim 3 An object of the present invention is to provide a connection structure capable of preventing a short circuit due to a solder bridge from occurring between adjacent connection terminals when the connection terminals of the two substrates are joined to each other.

[0018]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.
[0036]

Image correction electronic circuit board (hereinafter abbreviated as sub-substrate) on which electronic circuits are mounted, and electronic circuit board 12 having both ends connected to main board 8 and sub-board 11 A flexure 13 described later disposed in the lens barrel for signal transmission and power supply between them, an electromagnetic actuator 13 for a diaphragm device controlled by an electronic circuit on the main board 8 via a flexure (not shown), and a flexure 14 An annular decorative plate attached to the front of the image blur correction unit to cover the substrate 11 and the like from the front of the lens barrel, L3 is a third lens group, L4 is a fourth lens group, and L5 is a fifth lens lens. , L6 is a sixth group lens.
[0039]
The image blur correction lens L2, the actuator unit 10, the sub-substrate 11, and the like constitute a known image blur correction unit. The operation of this known image blur correction unit is already well-known, and therefore the description is omitted.
[0040]
FIG. 1 shows an enlarged view of the connection structure between the tip of the flexible 12 and the sub-substrate 11 in the above-mentioned lens barrel. In this drawing, the sub-substrate 11 is drawn in a perspective view from the back side of the connection surface with the flexible 12, and the illustration of the wiring pattern on the back side of the connection surface that should be originally seen and the electrical components and the like on the substrate are omitted. It is.
[0041]
The sub-substrate 11 is adhered and fixed to an annular end plate surface at the front end of a lens barrel carrying an image blur correction unit, and has a connection terminal arrangement portion formed in an arc shape. A large number of connection terminals 24 extending in a direction perpendicular to the arc of the arrangement portion (that is, substantially in a radial direction with respect to the center of curvature of the arc) are arranged at regular intervals and in a comb-like shape in the connection terminal arrangement portion, Reinforcement terminals 25 (which are electrically independent of the connection terminals 24) for increasing the bonding strength with the flexible 12 are formed at both ends of the arc-shaped connection terminal arrangement portion.
[0042]
The positioning holes 21 and 22, the reinforcing terminals 25, and the connection terminals 24 are exposed in a single opening region 23.
[0043]
In addition, independent reinforcing patterns 26 and 27 are formed in an island shape, and the reinforcing patterns 26 and 27 further strengthen the bonding strength between the flexible 12 and the substrate 11.
[0044]
Next, the flexible member 12 bonded to the sub-substrate 11 will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 2 shows the entire planar shape of the flexible 12. The flexure 12 has an arc-shaped connection terminal arrangement portion 38 which is superimposed on the connection terminal arrangement portion of the sub-substrate 11, a connection terminal arrangement portion 39 which is joined to the above-mentioned main substrate 8, and an image blur correction device. A connection terminal arrangement portion 37 connected to the actuator unit 10. The connection terminal arranging portion 38 superposed on the connection terminal arranging portion of the sub-substrate 11 is formed in an arc shape having the same curvature as the connection terminal arranging portion of the sub-substrate 11, and has the same circumferential length and the same configuration. ing.
[0045]
A large number of connection terminals 31 extending in a direction perpendicular to the arc of the arrangement portion (that is, in a substantially radial direction with respect to the center of curvature of the arc) are arranged at regular intervals in the connection terminal arrangement portion 38 formed in an arc shape. When the connection terminals 31 of the flexible 12 are joined to the connection terminals 24 of the sub-substrate 11, the connection terminals 31 are superimposed on the connection terminals 24 of the sub-substrate 11. Reinforcing terminals 32 (which are electrically independent of the connecting terminals 31) are formed at both ends of the connecting terminal arrangement portion 38 to increase the bonding strength with the sub-board 11. Is bonded to the reinforcing terminal 25 of the sub-board 11 when the sub-board 11 and the flexible 12 are joined. Both reinforcing terminals 32 are formed integrally with reinforcing patterns 35 and 36 around positioning holes 33 and 34 provided at positions radially outward from their own positions. The positioning holes 33 and 34 are formed at positions where the positioning holes 33 and 34 overlap with the positioning holes 21 and 22 of the sub-substrate 11 when the flexible 12 and the sub-substrate 11 are joined. The positioning holes 33 and 34 are located slightly radially outward from the arc-shaped connection terminal arrangement portion, but the positioning holes are located sufficiently farther in the circumferential direction than the arrangement position of the connection terminals 31. Since the periphery is reinforced by the reinforcing patterns 35 and 36, there is a possibility that a crack may be generated from the hole edges (edges) of the positioning holes 33 and 34 after the connection between the flexible 12 and the substrate 11 or during the handling operation of the flexible 12. Also, even if cracks are formed at the hole edges of the positioning holes 33 and 34, the positioning holes and the connection terminals 31 are sufficiently separated from each other. . Reinforcement patterns 28 and 29 are formed separately from the reinforcement patterns 35 and 36 around the positioning holes 33 and 34, and the reinforcement patterns 28 and 29 are joined to the reinforcement patterns 26 and 27 of the sub-substrate 11. The bonding strength between the flexible substrate 12 and the sub-substrate 11 is further enhanced.
[0046]
In the connection terminal portion 38 of the flexible 12, as shown in FIG. 1, an area 30 surrounded by a two-dot chain line is an uncovered area, and the length of the connection terminal 31 exposed in this area 30 is It is shorter than the length of the connection terminal 24 of the sub-board 11. This is because when the connection terminal 31 of the flexible board 12 is superimposed on the connection terminal 24 of the sub-substrate 11 and heated and pressed, the molten solder of the connection terminal 31 flows along the terminal direction of the connection terminal 24 of the sub-substrate 11. This is to prevent the occurrence of a solder bridge between adjacent terminals on the flexible side.
[0047]
When joining the flexible 12 having the above configuration to the sub-substrate 11, the connection terminals of the sub-substrate 11 can be connected by inserting the positioning pins inserted into the positioning holes 21 and 22 of the sub-substrate 11 into the positioning holes 33 and 34 of the flexible 12. Since each connection terminal 31 of the flexible 12 naturally overlaps with 24, in this state, the connection terminals 24 and 31 are melt-bonded by simultaneously pressing them with a heating / pressing jig (not shown) having the same shape as the region 30 and simultaneously heating them. At the same time, the two reinforcing terminals 25 and 32 are melt-bonded, and Reinforcement pattern 35 , 36, 26 to 29 are melt-bonded.
[0048]
When the connection terminal portion of the flexible 12 and the connection terminal portion of the sub-substrate 11 are overlapped and heated and pressurized, the connection length of the connection terminal 31 of the flexible 12 is shorter than the connection terminal 24 of the sub-substrate 11. The molten solder of the connection terminal 31 does not flow to the adjacent connection terminal side but flows in the terminal direction of the connection terminal 24, and therefore, there is no possibility that a solder bridge between the connection terminals will occur on the flexible 12 side.
[0049]
Further, when the connection terminals of the flexible 12 and the connection terminals of the sub-substrate 11 are superimposed and heated and pressed, the reinforcement terminals and the reinforcement patterns of both are superimposed and heated, so that they are melted. When the solder amount of the reinforcing terminal is small, the molten solder flows from the reinforcing pattern, so that the bonding strength at the reinforcing terminal does not become insufficient.
[0050]
When the connection terminals of the flexible 12 and the connection terminals of the sub-substrate 11 are superimposed and heated and pressurized, a temperature difference occurs between the connection terminal arrangement portion and the periphery of the positioning hole. The temperature difference does not adversely affect the joining of the connection terminals because the temperature difference is located at the outer positions of both ends and is separated from the connection terminal 31.
[0051]
In the above embodiment, an example of the optical device having the printed circuit board connection structure of the present invention has been described, but the device having the connection structure of the present invention is not limited to the optical device.
[0052]
