[0038] Such as figure 1 with 2 As shown, the lifting mechanism 1 is fixed to the mechanism frame 2 by a leveling plate 18, and a leveling screw 15 is installed between the leveling plate 18 and the fixture mounting plate 17, and its function is to adjust the level of the lifting mechanism 1 to the circuit board fixture. The circuit board 43 to be tested on 4 is kept parallel, the leveling screw 15 passes through the threaded hole on the fixture mounting plate 17, and the lower end is topped on the leveling plate 18. Adjusting the position of the leveling screw 15 can change the leveling plate 18 and the fixture The relative position of the mounting plate 17 is used for leveling purposes. The nut 16 is used to lock the leveling screw 16 to maintain the current posture of the lifting mechanism 1 after leveling, and fix the leveling plate 18 and the fixture mounting plate 17 together with screws after locking. The cylinder 11 is installed on the fixture mounting plate 17, and the cylinder rod is connected with the pressure plate 19. The linear bearing 14 is installed on the jig mounting plate 17, and the guide shaft 12 passes through the linear bearing 14 and is connected to the pressure plate 19. When the air cylinder 11 moves, the pressure plate 19 is driven to move up and down, and is guided by the guide shaft 12 to improve the positioning accuracy of the test probe 36. The collar 13 is fixed on the linear bearing 14 with an adjustable position, and is used to adjust the stroke of the lifting mechanism 1 to adapt to the height of the circuit board fixture 4.
[0039] Such as image 3 As shown, connecting blocks 110 are respectively installed on both sides under the pressure plate 19 for the purpose of placing the probe tray 31. The connecting block 110 has a rectangular chute, and the width of the rectangular chute is slightly larger than the thickness of the boss on the probe tray 31. It is convenient to insert the probe tray 31 from the side. The connecting block 110 is equipped with a ball plunger 111 for cooperating with the V-shaped grooves on both sides of the probe tray 31 to realize the rough positioning of the probe tray 31 on the lifting mechanism 1. The positioning pin 112 sequentially passes through the pin hole on the pressure plate 19 and the pin sleeve 35 on the probe tray 31, and is used for precise secondary positioning of the probe fixture 3 after being installed on the lifting mechanism 1.
[0040] Mechanism frame 2: The mechanism frame 2 is placed on the ground and used to install the lifting mechanism 1. Its composition can be profile, square steel or other structural forms.
[0041] Probe fixture 3: The probe fixture 3 is installed on the lifting mechanism 1 as a carrier of the probe 36 to assist it in performing the ICT test of the circuit board 43 to be tested. The feature of the probe fixture 3 in this patent is that it can be designed and quickly replaced for multiple/multi-type circuit boards 43 to be tested.
[0042] The two bosses on both sides of the probe tray 31 are used to connect with the two connecting blocks 110 on the lifting mechanism 1. V-shaped grooves are respectively opened in the middle of the outer side of the boss to clamp the ball plunger 111 in the middle of the connecting block 110 to realize the rough positioning of the probe tray 31. The two pin sleeves 35 are located on the probe tray 31 at diagonal angles. The line distribution is used to realize the precise secondary positioning of the probe fixture 3 and the lifting mechanism 1. A test circuit board 32 is installed on the upper surface of the probe tray 31, which is fixed by a fixing block 33; the upper surface of the test circuit board 32 is reserved with a writer connector and a power supply connector, and the cable connector of the ICT test instrument can pass through the lifting mechanism The jig mounting board 17 and the pressing board 19 of 1 are connected with the test circuit board 32 to realize the probe 36 receiving or sending data to the ICT test instrument. The probe 36 is soldered on the test circuit board 32, and the position layout of the probe corresponds to the test points on the circuit board 43 to be tested one to one, and passes through the probe fixing plate 37 and protrudes from the lower surface of the probe tray 31, which is convenient for waiting. The test points on the test circuit board 43 are connected. The probe fixing plate 37 is installed on the lower surface of the probe tray 31 to assist in guiding and fixing the probe 36. Two positioning posts 38 are installed on the lower surface of the probe tray 31 and are used to cooperate with the pin sleeve 44 on the circuit board tray 41 to accurately position the circuit board tool 4 a second time. The handle 34 is installed on the side of the probe tray to facilitate manual replacement of the probe fixture 3.
[0043] Such as Figure 4 with 5 As shown, circuit board fixture 4: The circuit board fixture 4 is placed on the workbench or assembly line, and coarsely positioned before the needle bed test, so that the test point on the circuit board 43 to be tested is as close as possible to the upper probe The probes 36 on the jig 3 correspond one to one. The circuit board 43 to be tested is placed on the circuit board tray 41 with the test point facing upwards and positioned by the stop pin 42. The positioning sleeve 44 is installed on the upper surface of the circuit board tray 41 and cooperates with the positioning post 38 on the probe fixture 3 to accurately position the circuit board fixture 4 a second time.
[0044] The working process is as follows:
[0045] When the production line is switched to production, the cylinder 11 is retracted and the lifting mechanism 1 is raised;
[0046] Manually insert the probe fixture 3 corresponding to the PCB to be tested into the two connecting blocks 110 sliding grooves under the lifting mechanism 1. When the probe fixture 3 is inserted into the connecting block 110, the ball head of the ball plunger 111 installed in the middle of the two connecting blocks 110 is pushed back by the probe fixture; when the V on both sides of the probe tray 31 When the groove slides to the ball plunger 111, the ball head is pushed out under the action of the spring force and stuck in the V-shaped groove on both sides of the probe tray 31 to roughly position the probe fixture.
[0047] Manually insert the two positioning pins 112 through the pin holes on the pressure plate 19 and insert them into the positioning pin sleeve 35 of the probe tray 31 to perform precise secondary positioning of the probe fixture 3. Since step (2) has performed rough positioning of the probe jig 3 through the ball plunger 111, the secondary positioning of this step is easier to implement.
[0048] Pass the cable plug of the ICT test instrument through the fixture mounting plate 17 and the pressure plate 19, and respectively plug them into the corresponding interface of the test circuit board 32 to realize the data transmission and power supply between the probe and the ICT test instrument. At this point, the replacement of the probe fixture is complete.
[0049] Transfer the circuit board fixture 4 to the bottom of the probe fixture 3 and make coarse positioning so that the test points on the circuit board 43 to be tested correspond to the probe 36 on the upper probe fixture 3 as much as possible; the cylinder 11 extends , The probe fixture 3 is lowered, and the two positioning posts 38 on the probe fixture 3 are respectively inserted into the two positioning sleeves 44 on the circuit board tray 41 to accurately position the circuit board fixture 4; The tool 3 continues to descend until the probes 36 respectively contact the test points on the circuit board 43 to be tested.
