FORMATION OF EXTERNAL ELECTRODE OF ELECTRONIC COMPONENT

摘要

PURPOSE:To stabilize the configuration of the part where the electrode paste is circulated and prevent the electrode paste from remaining on the board in a method for forming strip type electrodes on the end of an element assembly of an electronic component and the surface extending from it by the rising liquid level of the paste from the slit type through holes of a plate member laid on the electrode paste bath. CONSTITUTION:A plate member to be laid on an electrode paste bath is made a grooved board 4 having the slit type through holes 3 which are formed in parallel to each other in a given width at intervals in accordance with the number of electrodes to be formed and its positions, and also having the groove rectangular to these through holes 3, which is formed in a given width and length good enough to pinch the element assembly of an electronic component with its contact end 6. The paste rises through the part of the through holes confined by the end of the pinched element assembly and the walls of the through holes in order to coat the electrode paste on the end of the element assembly and the surface extending from it.
