Definitions
- the present invention relates to the electromagnetic shielding of a printed circuit electronic card mounted on a metal substrate.
- Such electromagnetic shielding is generally carried out by means of a metal cover closed over the substrate.
- the electrical connection of the metal cover to the ground that constitutes the metal substrate is carried out independently of the mechanical fixing of said cover relative to said substrate and to the electronic card.
- the electrical connection to ground can then be made by means such as riveting, screwing, welding or even a welded wire connection.
- the metal cover 5 is mechanically fixed to the substrate by means of an adhesive which is made of an electrically conductive material and which performs the function of electrical connection.
- An object of the invention is to provide a shielding solution which does not have these drawbacks.
- the invention provides an assembly comprising an electronic printed circuit board mounted on a metal substrate, as well as a metal shielding cover electrically connected to the substrate, the substrate having a hollow gutter in which the edge of the cover is received, said edge being crimped onto said substrate in the gutter.
- the invention also provides a method for producing such an assembly, characterized by the following steps: the substrate is stamped to make a gutter, - the electronic card is assembled on said substrate, the cover is positioned on the assembly as well obtained, by placing the edge of said cover in said gutter, - said edge is crimped onto said substrate.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic representation in sectional view illustrating a fixing of a shielding cover according to a possible embodiment for one invention
- FIGs 2a and 2b are schematic representations in top view illustrating two possible crimping modes
- Figures 3 and 4 are schematic representations in sectional view similar to that of Figure 1 illustrating a possible implementation for crimping the metal cover on the substrate.
- FIG. 1 there is shown a metal substrate 1, a printed circuit electronic card 2 and a metal shielding cover 3.
- the substrate 1 has a hollow gutter 4 produced by stamping the material. This gutter 4 extends over said substrate along a contour which corresponds to that of the edge of the metal cover 3.
- This gutter 4 is intended to receive the edge of the metal cover 3.
- the edge of the metal cover 3 is fixed in the gutter 4 by crimping.
- said edge is extended by one or more tabs 5, which form an L-shaped return extending towards the outside of the cover 3.
- Such a tab 5 is received in an area of the gutter 4 which is shaped with a width which coincides with that of said tab 5.
- said tab 5 fits exactly into the hollow shape of the gutter 4.
- the length of such a tab 5 is for example 3 mm, while that of a recessed pattern which receives it is 4 mm.
- the mounting of the cover 3 on the substrate 1 is done as follows. 4
- the substrate 1 is first stamped, so as to produce the gutter 4. There is thereby obtained an excess of material which in this case constitutes the edge of the gutter 4. Then, the electronic card 2 is assembled on the substrate 1.
- the cover 3 is then placed in the gutter 4.
- crimping can be carried out by crushing a fairly short part of the substrate which covers fairly long tabs 5 (FIG. 2a); alternatively, it can be achieved by simultaneously crushing two parts of the substrate covering fairly short tabs 5 (FIG. 2b).
- the mold in which the substrate 1 is stamped can be shaped so that said stamped substrate 1 has at the edge of the gutter 4 a protrusion 7 which constitutes the excess material to be moved during crimping;
- the altitude of this protuberance is adjusted to remain below the upper level of the electronic card 2, so as not to prevent the screen printing of the solder paste for the assembly of the components prior to the installation of the cover 3. 5
- the depth of the gutter 4 is adjusted so that the bottom of said gutter 4 and the return
- the metal substrate remains perfectly waterproof, since it is free of perforations;
- the mechanical rigidity of one assembly is increased; in particular, the gutter made on the entire periphery of the metal substrate constitutes a rib which contributes to this rigidity; this rigidity is also increased by stamping the cover when it is crimped onto the metal substrate; it will be noted that the increase in rigidity obtained makes it possible to reduce the thickness of the metal substrate; also, with the proposed technique, it is possible to dismantle and then reassemble the hood.
- the shielding which has just been described can be used in all fields of electronics where 6 used insulated metal substrates and in particular advantageously in automotive electronics, energy conversion, power supply, power multiplexer, electric motor supply, etc.
