When a printed board is soldered by a dipping method, a great deal of dross is generated on a jet solder tank. The dross is a mixture of melted solder and oxide. A worker takes out the dross from the jet solder tank, and throws it away. Thus, a large amount of the solder is consumed. The present invention relates to a separating device for separating oxide and solder from dross. A container ( ) is provided with a heater ( ). A cover ( ) is set over the container ( ) to be freely attachable or detachable, and further a non-oxidizing gas supplying opening ( ) is made in the cover ( ) or the container ( ). A stirring spatula ( ) for stirring the surface of a melted solder ( ) put into the container ( ) is set near the surface of the melted solder ( ).

Method of separating oxide from dross, device for separating oxide from dross, and jet solder tank

A jet solder bath is comprised of a bath unit which contains a molten solder, a nozzle member provided within the bath unit and constructing a nozzle mouth, a tank provided in at least one side of the nozzle member along the nozzle mouth and temporarily accumulating a solder jetted from the nozzle mouth, and a molten solder outlet provided on the lower portion of the tank and communicating the tank with a molten solder still area provided within the solder bath unit under the liquid level of the molten solder. According to the above-mentioned arrangement, the molten solder can be suppressed from being oxidized as much as possible and the removal of a resultant oxide can be facilitated.
