[0002] For some testing organizations that need to frequently update and replace products, in order to cope with the rapid change of products, their main conduction test components usually need to be frequently replaced, but they need to be well fixed after replacement. The existing fixing method generally uses manual locking with buckles, but manual locking is inconvenient to operate. There are also cylinder connection blocks for locking. However, when the cylinder suddenly fails, the block's restriction on the test component will also be released, further affecting the smooth progress of the test work, which has limitations. Summary of the invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a locking mechanism with a simple structure, good locking effect and self-locking capability.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is: the present invention includes a fixed seat, a driving cylinder, a rotating shaft, a hinged bar, a locking rod and a locking seat, the driving cylinder and the rotating shaft are respectively arranged on both sides of the lower end of the fixed seat and the rotating shaft is rotatably matched with the fixed seat, the output end of the driving cylinder is hinged to the rotating shaft, a connecting block is arranged on the rotating shaft, the locking seat is arranged at the upper end of the fixed seat, the middle part of the locking rod is hinged to the locking seat, the lower end of the hinged bar is hinged to the connecting block, the upper end of the hinged bar passes through the fixed seat and is connected to the rear end of the locking rod; when the output end of the driving cylinder is extended, the hinged bar is in a vertical state, and the front end of the locking rod is parallel to the end face of the locking seat.

[0005] Furthermore, a sensing sheet is disposed at one end of the rotating shaft, and a sensor matching with the sensing sheet is disposed at one end of the fixing base close to the sensing sheet.

[0006] Furthermore, a U-shaped block is arranged on the rotating shaft, the open end of the U-shaped block is connected to the rotating shaft, the closed end of the U-shaped block is arranged with an upward bending section, and the upward bending section is hinged to the output end of the driving cylinder.

[0007] Furthermore, a connecting block is provided at the output end of the driving cylinder, and an engaging groove is opened on the connecting block. One end of the upper bend section is located in the engaging groove and is hinged to the connecting block through a cylindrical pin. The two ends of the cylindrical pin respectively pass through the two ends of the connecting block and are sleeved with limit clamps.

[0008] Furthermore, the number of the driving cylinder, the hinge bar, the locking rod, the locking seat and the connecting block are two and they are symmetrically arranged on the fixing seat and the rotating shaft respectively.

[0009] Furthermore, a mounting groove is provided at the lower end of the fixing seat away from the rotating shaft, a cylinder seat is embedded in the mounting groove, fixing blocks are provided at both ends of the cylinder seat, the fixing blocks are connected to the fixing seat, and the driving cylinder is provided on the cylinder seat.

At this time The locking rod and the hinged bar form a 90° vertical relationship, and when the driving cylinder does not move, the hinge points of the locking rod and the lock seat and the hinge points of the locking rod and the hinged bar act as brakes, and the lower end of the hinged bar abuts against the connecting block, so that the locking rod and the lock seat remain parallel, and the test mechanism components clamped by the locking rod and the lock seat will also be fixed all the time. Even in the case of failure of the driving cylinder, the locking rod cannot be pulled up. At this time, to release the locked state, it is necessary to push the output shaft of the driving cylinder in the opposite direction to retract it; during the retraction process, the rotating shaft rotates, and the connecting block rotates accordingly, thereby driving the hinged bar to move obliquely, thereby breaking the vertical state, so that the front end of the locking rod can be tilted upward, thereby releasing the lock.
