- inter-electrode distance adjustment mechanism 8 configured to move at least positive electrode 4 in a vertical direction.
- Ground electrode 5 is grounded.
- Inter-electrode distance adjustment mechanism 8 serves as an exemplary discharge condition adjustment device.
- Object 9 is a target to be disassembled, and is held in liquid 2 between positive electrode 4 and ground electrode 5.
- object 9 is placed on ground electrode 5 but may be supported so as not to make contact with positive electrode 4 or ground electrode 5 by a supporting member.
- Controller 10 is connected with pulse power source 6, electric current meter 7, and inter-electrode distance adjustment mechanism 8. Controller 10 controls inter-electrode distance adjustment mechanism 8 so as to adjust a distance (inter-electrode distance) between positive electrode 4 and ground electrode 5.
- Pulse power source 6 is capable of applying an optional voltage.
- pulse power source 6 may be a Marx generator. Discharging occurs between positive electrode 4 and ground electrode 5. Object 9 held between positive electrode 4 and ground electrode 5 is disassembled through discharging or shock wave induced by the discharging.
- FIG. 1 illustrates an example in which a leading end of positive electrode 4 has a circular cone shape, and ground electrode 5 has a flat plate shape. Since the disassembly proceeds through discharging, these electrodes may have various shapes in accordance with a shape or a material of object 9 or a shape to be achieved after disassembly.
- Ground electrode 5 may have, for example, a reticular shape, a lattice shape, or a spiral shape instead of the flat plate shape.
- positive electrode 4 and ground electrode 5 are disposed facing each other with object 9 interposed therebetween, but positions of the electrodes are not particularly limited because discharging occurs in the liquid as long as at least one positive electrode 4 and one ground electrode 5 are provided and a nearest distance between positive electrode 4 and ground electrode 5 is smaller than 100 mm.
- positive electrode 4 and ground electrode 5 may be placed above object 9.
- a plurality of positive electrodes 4 or a plurality of ground electrodes 5 may be provided, or a plurality of positive electrodes 4 and a plurality of ground electrodes 5 may be provided.
- Directions to which the leading ends of positive electrode 4 and ground electrode 5 point are not limited because generation of discharging is hardly affected by these directions.
- Inter-electrode distance adjustment mechanism 8 is capable of changing the distance between positive electrode 4 and ground electrode 5 by moving the electrodes.
- inter-electrode distance adjustment mechanism 8 is a mechanism capable of changing a height of positive electrode 4 in FIG. 1
- a mechanism capable of changing a height of ground electrode 5 is applicable.
- a movement distance depends on a size of object 9 to be processed or a discharge condition and thus cannot be particularly specified, but an exemplary movement stroke is 100 mm, which is an upper limit allowing generation of pulse discharging in the liquid with the present configuration, so as to deal with a large change in an electric conductivity of liquid 2.
- Exemplary movement accuracy is set to be not larger than 1 mm, which is a thickness of an electric component, so as to follow change in a distance between an electrode and a processed object, which occurs when the electric component is separated from a substrate.
- Object 9 to be disassembled is not particularly limited but is preferably a thin object so that the entire object is equally provided with an effect of the shock wave due to discharge.
- the object include an electrical product such as a cellular phone, a game machine, or a flat-panel television, an electronic substrate, and a solar battery.
- the configuration of the disassembly device for object 9 enables such adjustment that the discharge current measured by electric current meter 7 is maintained constant in accordance with change in the electric conductivity of liquid 2 and change in the shape of object 9 along disassembly.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a process of changing the distance between positive electrode 4 and ground electrode 5 so that a peak value of the discharge current is maintained constant in a predetermined range allowing disassembly of a component on the substrate, from the substrate or object 9 including the substrate, without destroying the component.
- the peak value of the discharge current is a maximum value of current flowing at discharging operation. The maximum value of the current may be set upon removal of a noise component depending on a condition. The peak value of the discharge current allowing disassembly of a component on the substrate without destroying the component from the substrate or object 9 including the substrate will be described in detail later.
- step S001 in which positive electrode 4 or ground electrode 5 is moved to an initial position, an optional discharge voltage, and step S002 in which discharging is performed at a width of the discharge current (hereinafter referred to as a pulse width) that is a time from rise of the discharge current until its return to zero voltage.
- a pulse width a width of the discharge current
- the process further includes step S003 in which controller 10 determines whether a total number of times of discharging after step S002 has reached a predetermined target number of times of discharging, step S004 in which controller 10 determines whether the peak value of the discharge current at the discharging in step S002 is in a predetermined range, and step S005 in which controller 10 determines whether the peak value of the discharge current at the discharging in step S002 is smaller than a predetermined value.
- the process further includes step S006 in which inter-electrode distance adjustment mechanism 8 reduces the inter-electrode distance under control of controller 10 if it is determined in step S005 that the peak value of the discharge current is smaller than the predetermined value, and step S007 in which inter-electrode distance adjustment mechanism 8 increases the inter-electrode distance under control of controller 10 if it is determined in step S005 that the peak value of the discharge current is not smaller than the predetermined value.
- the process includes the above-described seven steps.
- step S001 positive electrode 4 or ground electrode 5 is moved to an initial position.
- the initial position to which the electrode is moved needs to be in such a range that the peak value of the discharge current does not exceed the predetermined value but discharging occurs.
- step S002 discharging is performed at an optional discharge voltage and the width of the discharge current (hereinafter referred to as the pulse width) that is a time from rise of the discharge current until its return to zero voltage.
- the discharge voltage and the pulse width are preferably set in advance based on a material or hardness of a processed object, or a target disassembly state and a target number of times of discharging. In particular, a preferable pulse width will be described in detail later.
- step S003 controller 10 determines whether the total number of times of discharging after step S002 has reached the predetermined target number of times of discharging. If controller 10 determines that the total number of times of discharging has reached the predetermined target number of times of discharging, the process is ended. If controller 10 determines that the total number of times of discharging has not reached the predetermined target number of times of discharging, the process proceeds to step S004.
- the target number of times of discharging is optionally determined but preferably determined in advance as appropriate because an insufficient number of times of discharging results in insufficient disassembly of the substrate or object 9 including the substrate, and an excessive number of times of discharging generates minute dust or the like of the substrate or object 9 including the substrate, which requires, for example, cleaning of the liquid.
- step S004 controller 10 determines whether the peak value of the discharge current at the discharging in step S002 is smaller than the predetermined value, in other words, whether the peak value of the discharge current is in the predetermined range. If controller 10 determines that the peak value of the discharge current is not in the predetermined range, the process proceeds to step S005. If controller 10 determines that the peak value of the discharge current is in the predetermined range, the process returns to step S002.
- step S005 controller 10 determines whether the peak value of the discharge current is smaller than the predetermined value, in other words, whether the peak value of the discharge current is in the predetermined range. If controller 10 determines that the peak value of the discharge current is in the predetermined range, the process proceeds to step S006. If controller 10 determines that the peak value of the discharge current is not in the predetermined range, the process proceeds to step S007.
- inter-electrode distance adjustment mechanism 8 reduces the distance between positive electrode 4 and ground electrode 5 under control of controller 10.
- a resistance along the discharge current is reduced and the peak value of the discharge current increases accordingly, so that the peak value of the discharge current is more likely to be in the predetermined range at subsequent discharging.
- step S006 the process returns to step S002 again, in which discharging is performed.
- Measurement of the peak value of the discharge current may be performed by measuring current flowing through part of a circuit, instead of current between the discharging electrodes, such as current flowing through a wire between the ground electrode and GND.
- step S005 if controller 10 determines that the peak value of the discharge current is not smaller than the predetermined value (is not within the predetermined range), it is determined, based on the determination in step S004 performed before step S005, that the peak value of the discharge current is larger than the predetermined value.
- inter-electrode distance adjustment mechanism 8 increases the inter-electrode distance under control of controller 10. When the inter-electrode distance is increased, a resistance between the electrodes is increased accordingly, thereby reducing the peak value of the discharge current. After step S007, the process returns to step S002 again to perform discharging.
- the peak value of the discharge current can be maintained constant in the predetermined range.
- FIG. 3 illustrates a process of changing the discharge voltage through pulse power source 6 so that the peak value of the discharge current is maintained constant in the predetermined range.
- Pulse power source 6 serves as an exemplary discharge condition adjustment device such as a discharge voltage adjustment mechanism.
- step S005 Processing content in steps S001 to S005 is the same as that in FIG. 2 , and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted. If controller 10 determines that the peak value of the discharge current is smaller than the predetermined value (within the predetermined range) in step S005, step S008 is performed in which pulse power source 6 increases its voltage under control of controller 10. When the voltage is increased, the discharge current is increased at the same inter-electrode distance, thereby increasing the peak value of the discharge current. After step S008, the process returns to step S002 again, in which discharging is performed.
- step S005 pulse power source 6 reduces its voltage under control of controller 10 in step S009 so as to reduce the peak value of the discharge current. Thereafter, the process returns to step S002 again, in which discharging is performed.
- the peak value of the discharge current can be maintained constant in the predetermined range.
