A COOLING SYSTEM FOR A REFLOW FURNACE

Abstract:

Disclosed in the present application is a cooling system for a reflow furnace, the reflow furnace comprising a heating zone, and the cooling system being used to regulate a temperature of the heating zone, the cooling system comprising: at least one gas inlet and at least one gas discharge port, the at least one gas inlet and the at least one gas discharge port being disposed on the heating zone; a blowing apparatus; at least one gas intake pipeline, an inlet of the at least one gas intake pipeline being connected to the blowing apparatus, an outlet of the at least one gas intake pipeline being connected to the at least one gas inlet, the at least one gas intake pipeline being able to controllably establish fluid communication between the blowing apparatus and the at least one gas inlet; and at least one gas discharge pipeline, an inlet of the at least one gas discharge pipeline being connected to the at least one gas discharge port, an outlet of the at least one gas discharge pipeline being connected to the outside, and the at least one gas discharge pipeline being able to controllably establish fluid communication between the at least one gas discharge port and the outside. The cooling system of the present application can shorten the time taken for the reflow furnace to change from a higher heating temperature to a lower heating temperature.
