DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0025] Embodiment 1
[0026] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3In the present invention, the upper area of the fixed base plate 1 is used, and the lateral push plate 2 can push the backlight to be tested to move horizontally linearly, and the longitudinal push plate 3 can push the backlight to be tested 12 to move vertically linearly. The side limit baffle 13 forms a side limit for the backlight to be tested, and also forms a guide during the pushing process of the lateral push plate 2. When the lateral push plate 2 pushes the backlight to be tested horizontally, when the exposed pin 19 of the backlight to be tested enters the pin entry sensor side 22 of the pin detection photoelectric sensor module 21, the main processing controller obtains the spacing between the two exposed pins 19 and the longitudinal position occupied by the exposed pin 19 on the pin detection photoelectric sensor module 21. The main processing controller drives the longitudinal displacement device 17 to drive the probe substrate 15 to move longitudinally, and adjusts the qualified test probe combination to a position flush with the exposed pin 19, so that the exposed pin 19 can come into contact with the corresponding test probe 16, thereby realizing the detection of the backlight to be tested.
[0027] Embodiment 2
[0028] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 There is still a certain distance between the test probe 16 and the touch sensing side 24 boundary of the probe detection photoelectric sensor module 23, that is, a sensing detection accuracy of the probe detection photoelectric sensor module 23, for example Figure 3 After entering the touch sensing side 24 of the probe detection photoelectric sensor module 23, the exposed pin 19 first occupies the first sensing detection accuracy position on the inner side of the touch sensing side 24 boundary, that is, after the exposed pin 19 moves forward a distance d, it contacts the test probe 16.
[0029] In actual situations, after the exposed pin 19 enters the touch sensing side 24 and occupies a distance d of sensing detection accuracy, it is too late for the lateral drive device 4 to prepare to stop. In order to solve this contradiction, a test probe 16 with a certain elasticity can be used. Even if there is a certain pressure or slight deformation, it can be restored after the pressure is released. Alternatively, multiple sensing detection accuracy units d are reserved between the test probe 16 and the touch sensing side 24. After the exposed pin 19 occupies the first sensing detection accuracy unit d, the main processing controller performs corresponding parking control on the lateral drive device 4.
[0030] Embodiment 3
[0031] In the present invention, the pin detection photoelectric sensor module 21 and the probe detection photoelectric sensor module 23 are both built with a large number of matrix arrayed photoelectric elements. For example, the arrayed distribution of the photoelectric elements of the pin detection photoelectric sensor module 21 and the probe detection photoelectric sensor module 23 is:
[0032] ...[pin detection photoelectric sensor module coordinate matrix parameters]; ...[Probe detection photoelectric sensor module coordinate matrix parameters];
[0033] The main processing controller performs horizontal and vertical coordinate parameterization on the pin detection photoelectric sensor module 21 and the probe detection photoelectric sensor module 23 according to the arrayed distribution position, and the corresponding XOY two-dimensional parameter coordinates are formed in the main processing controller. The coordinate parameter information in the pin detection photoelectric sensor module 21 and the probe detection photoelectric sensor module 23 is completely aligned, so the main processing controller can obtain the longitudinal coordinates occupied by the two exposed pins 19 and the spacing between the two exposed pins 19. The main processing controller drives the longitudinal displacement device 17 to move the combination of test probes 16 that meets the current spacing between the two exposed pins 19 to the same longitudinal parameter position as the exposed pins 19. Assuming that the pin detection photoelectric sensor module 21 senses that the spacing size between the two exposed pins 19 is Lx, the main processing controller finds the adjacent test probe 16 combination whose spacing size meets the spacing between the two exposed pins 19. Figure 2 Where Ls is the spacing between adjacent test probes 16, that is, looking for an Ls=Lx, or Ls≈Lx [the exposed pins themselves have a certain width. Under the premise that the test probes 16 can touch the exposed pins, the spacing between two test probes 16 is very close to the spacing between two exposed pins 19, and the test operation can also be carried out].
[0034] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, when the outer end of the pin enters the foot-entry sensing side 22 of the pin detection photoelectric sensor module 21, that is, it occupies the first photoelectric sensing accuracy distance on the inner side of the foot-entry sensing side 22 of the pin detection photoelectric sensor module 21, and the distance between the foot-entry sensing side 22 and the touch sensing side 24 is Da, after the exposed pin 19 continues to move forward a distance of Da, the exposed pin 19 will enter the touch sensing side 24 of the probe detection photoelectric sensor module 23, occupy the first photoelectric sensing accuracy distance on the inner side of the touch sensing side 24 of the probe detection photoelectric sensor module 23, and come into contact with the test probe 16.
[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
