Compared with the use of a hydraulic cylinder, a uniform reciprocating motion rate can be applied to the pressure workpiece 31, making the overall compressive fatigue test more controllable.

The screw-in adjustment arm is used as an adjustment device for the X-axis clamp block 51 and the Y-axis clamp block 52, and the minute progress of the X-axis clamp block 51 and the Y-axis clamp block 52 can be magnified to the number of rotations of the screw-in adjustment arm, thereby achieving the need for fine adjustment.

[0036] The main control terminal 7 is provided with a fatigue test control module and a probe lifting control module, the fatigue test control module is connected to the pressurized servo motor 321, and the probe lifting control module is connected to the probe servo motor 6221. The main control mechanical components in the mechanical fatigue test assembly and the probe performance test assembly are connected to the main control terminal 7, and visual control is achieved by setting the fatigue test control module and the probe lifting control module, thereby achieving fine control and automated operation of the detection process, facilitating the overall detection process control and the summary and analysis of the detection results, and also facilitating the subsequent configuration of the entire set of equipment on the assembly line for automated assembly line detection.

[0038] The working method of using the integrated test device of the probe detection tooling provided by the technical solution to perform performance testing on the probe detection tooling is as follows:

[0039] S1. The probe test tooling to be tested is loaded onto the tooling mounting seat 2. The fatigue test control module on the main control terminal 7 is adjusted to set the stress parameter value and the number of repeated tests required for the compressive fatigue test of the probe test tooling to be tested. After the preset parameters are entered, they are fed back to the pressurizing servo motor 321. The pressurizing servo motor 321 performs a reciprocating pressurizing action, and drives the pressurizing workpiece 31 to perform a reciprocating motion through the pressurizing transmission screw 322, so that the contact plate 312 repeatedly presses the probe test tooling to be tested, so as to realize the compressive fatigue test requirements for the mechanical part of the probe test tooling;

[0040] S2. After the compression fatigue test is completed, the probe detection tooling is unloaded from the tooling mounting seat 2 and transferred to the tooling fixture 5. The probe lifting control module on the main control terminal 7 is adjusted, and the descending process of the probe body 621 is set to control the external stress of the probe body 621 in the probe test tooling to test the probe part. Then the control parameters are sent to the probe servo motor 6221, and the probe servo motor 6221 works to drive the probe body 621 to descend and complete the compression through the probe transmission screw 6222;

[0041] S3. Adjust and tighten the adjusting arm 54 to control the X-axis clamp 51 and the Y-axis clamp 52 to clamp the probe test fixture to be tested. Then, use the two ends of the electric pen device to connect the probe body 621 and the conductive plate 53 respectively, and observe the reading feedback of the electric pen device to determine whether the probe part in the probe test fixture to be tested still maintains a complete connected state after the fatigue test, thereby completing the inspection of the probe test fixture to be tested.

[0042] In the use environment of the probe test tooling, in order to simulate the actual use scenario of the chip, it is also necessary to test the weather resistance of special chips in the field environment, including weather resistance in extreme high temperature environment, extremely low humidity environment and high humidity environment. In order to test such environmental performance, the probe test tooling needs to be loaded in the corresponding simulated environment for chip testing. To meet this requirement, the probe test tooling as a product itself must also adapt to the extreme environment of the test site. Therefore, it is also necessary to test the weather resistance of the tooling itself. To achieve this function, we can set up a corresponding simulated environmental atmosphere on the detection mechanism. In order to avoid destructive damage to the detection mechanism itself caused by the extreme environment, the simulation cabin adapted to the simulated environmental atmosphere can be respectively set up on the first base 1 and the second base 4.

Moreover, the first feature being "above", "above" and "above" the second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. The first feature being "below", "below" and "below" the second feature may mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature. In the description of this specification, the description with reference to the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "example", "specific example" or "some examples" etc. means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention.
