Abstract

Abstract The present invention is directed to a shielding device of a double-sided printed substrate used in a circuit for processing a high frequency signal such as a television tuner circuit and the like, which is arranged such that a first grounding conductor film (12a) is formed on one side of the substrate (11), a second grounding conductor film (12b) is formed on the other side of the substrate (11), both the conductor films (12a, 12b) are connected by a through-hole conductor (15b), an opening portion of a through hole (15a) at at least one side is covered and closed by a solder resist (16), and the shielding plate (13) is mounted on the conductor film (12a) on the one side and both members are soldered. In particular, when a ceramic substrate is used as the substrate (11), it is arranged so as to obtain reliable soldering and satisfactory shielding effects while ensuring the strength thereof.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 125 words
A shielding device wherein a shielding plate is erected on one side of a substrate and is connected to a grounding conductor film on the other side of said substrate, comprising: grounding conductor films respectively formed on said one side and on said other side of said substrate, said conductor film on said one side being connected to said conductor film on said other side by at least one through-hole conductor applied to at least one through-hole in said substrate, an opening portion of said at least one through-hole on at least one side of said substrate being covered and closed by a solder resist, and said shielding plate being mounted on said grounding conductor film on the at least one side and soldered thereto.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 125 words
A shielding device wherein a shielding plate is erected on one side of a substrate and is connected to a grounding conductor film on the other side of said substrate, comprising: grounding conductor films respectively formed on said one side and on said other side of said substrate, said conductor film on said one side being connected to said conductor film on said other side by at least one through-hole conductor applied to at least one through-hole in said substrate, an opening portion of said at least one through-hole on at least one side of said substrate being covered and closed by a solder resist, and said shielding plate being mounted on said grounding conductor film on the at least one side and soldered thereto.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 54 words
A shielding device according to claim 1, wherein a multiplicity of through-holes are formed so as to be positioned at right and left sides with respect to said shielding plate and alternately to each other along a lengthwise direction of said shielding plate, each of said through-holes being covered by a respective solder resist.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 55 words
A shielding device according to claim 1, wherein solder resists are formed so as to divide said grounding conductor film on the at least one side into a plurality of sections at right and left sides with respect to said shielding plate and alternately to each other along a lengthwise direction of said shielding plate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 16 words
A shielding device as in claim 1 wherein said substrate is formed of a ceramic material.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 109 words
A method of forming a shielding device comprising the steps of: forming grounding conductor films respectively on opposite sides of a substrate; electrically interconnecting the respective grounding conductor films through at least one through-hole formed in said substrate; covering an open portion of said through-hole on at least one side of said substrate with a solder resist; coating the grounding conductor film on said one side of said substrate with a creamy solder; mounting a shielding plate on said grounding conductor film on said one side of said substrate through said creamy solder; and soldering said shielding plate to said conductor film on said one side of said substrate.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 109 words
A method of forming a shielding device comprising the steps of: forming grounding conductor films respectively on opposite sides of a substrate; electrically interconnecting the respective grounding conductor films through at least one through-hole formed in said substrate; covering an open portion of said through-hole on at least one side of said substrate with a solder resist; coating the grounding conductor film on said one side of said substrate with a creamy solder; mounting a shielding plate on said grounding conductor film on said one side of said substrate through said creamy solder; and soldering said shielding plate to said conductor film on said one side of said substrate.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method according to claim 5, wherein said shielding plate is soldered to said grounding conductor film on said one side of said substrate by solder dipping.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method according to claim 5, wherein said shielding plate is soldered to said grounding conductor film on said one side of said substrate by reflow soldering.
