A soldering iron including an iron main body; and an iron tip having a leading end configured to fuse solder, the iron tip including an iron tip main body of a thermal conductive material; a heater configured to heat the iron tip main body, and a temperature sensor configured to detect a temperature of the leading end side of the iron tip, wherein, a first hole part accommodating the heater and a second hole part accommodating the temperature sensor are formed independent of each other inside the iron tip main body.

Soldering iron

A soldering iron including an iron main body and an iron tip includes an iron tip main body having a hollow space inside extending along a longitudinal direction; an insulator tube in the hollow space; a heater wire to heat the iron tip main body, and a temperature sensor to detect a temperature of the leading end side of the iron tip, the heater wire includes: an outward route part extending towards a leading end of the iron tip, and a return route part extending towards a base end of the iron tip, while the heater wire folded back at a vicinity of the leading end of the iron tip being wound around the insulator tube, in the insulator tube, a heater wire hole to accommodate the return route part of the heater wire and a sensor wire hole to accommodate a sensor wire are formed independent of each other.

A soldering iron provided with a soldering tip that melts solder at a distal end, having inside said soldering tip a substantially cylindrical insertion fit recess portion extending from a proximal end of the soldering tip to the distal end, opening at the proximal end, and a heater formed into a coil shape and whose surface is covered with an insulating oxide film being fittingly inserted into the insertion fit recess portion.

Method of manufacturing soldering iron

A soldering iron including: a soldering tip that melts solder at a distal end; an iron body to which the soldering tip is fixed; at least one male connecting end provided at a base end of the soldering tip; at least one female connecting end built into the distal end of the iron body and into which the male connecting end is fittingly inserted; and a grip having heat insulating properties provided around the outer periphery of the soldering tip to cover the base end region of the soldering tip.
