Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of Bluetooth sensor detection, specifically to a Bluetooth sensor detection device and its detection method. Background Technology

[0002] Bluetooth is a wireless technology that replaces power cords. Electronic products with Bluetooth functionality must meet various Bluetooth specifications, so it is necessary to test the Bluetooth module.

[0003] According to patent application CN202010881382.9, a Bluetooth module testing device and its operating method are disclosed. The Bluetooth module testing device includes a conveyor belt for transporting multiple Bluetooth modules, a testing device for checking whether the multiple Bluetooth modules are qualified, and an operating device for moving at least two Bluetooth modules at a time. The testing device is located on the side of the conveyor belt, and the operating device is located above the conveyor belt. The operating device is equipped with a CCD camera for positioning and scanning the Bluetooth modules. This application features a conveyor belt capable of transporting multiple Bluetooth modules, an operating device that sequentially picks up at least two Bluetooth modules, and a testing device capable of testing multiple Bluetooth modules simultaneously, achieving automated operation, improving work efficiency, and enabling mass production.

[0004] The aforementioned Bluetooth module testing equipment can test multiple Bluetooth modules at the same time, achieving automated operation and improving work efficiency. However, traditional Bluetooth module testing equipment often uses clamping blocks to directly fix the delivered Bluetooth sensors. The clamping effect is easily affected by the stability of the clamping blocks holding the Bluetooth sensors, and there is a lack of sensor positioning. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides a Bluetooth sensor detection device and detection method to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background section.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:

[0007] A Bluetooth sensor detection device includes a workbench, one end of which is connected to a conveyor belt, a code verification mechanism is connected to the upper surface of the workbench near the conveyor belt, a testing mechanism is connected to the upper surface of the other end of the workbench, and a transport mechanism is provided between the testing mechanism and the code verification mechanism.

[0008] The testing mechanism includes a shielded box mounted on the upper surface of the workbench, a firmware burning tester connected inside the shielded box, and a fixture connected to one side of the firmware burning tester.

[0009] The fixture includes a lifting and conveying component located inside the shielding box, multiple support rods with one end mounted on the outer surface of the firmware burning tester and the other end mounted on the inner wall of the shielding box, and two first electric telescopic rods mounted on the upper surface of the support rods and located at the bottom end of the support rods, with a clamping block connected to the actuating end of the first electric telescopic rods;

[0010] The lifting and conveying component includes a plurality of second electric telescopic rods arranged in a straight line array on the inner surface of the shielded box, and a conveyor belt connected to the actuating end of the second electric telescopic rods.

[0011] Furthermore, a plurality of first air rods are installed at the bottom end of one side surface of the clamping block near the other clamping block. A buffer plate is installed on the side surface of the first air rod away from the clamping block. A stop ring is installed on the outer surface of one end of the first air rod extending into the clamping block. A spring sleeved on the outside of the first air rod is abutted on one side of the stop ring. In this invention, the spring pushes the stop ring to make the first air rod extend so that the first air rod drives the buffer plate on it to contact the sensor.

[0012] Furthermore, a second air rod is connected to the top of the clamping block. The second air rod is connected to the first air rod through a pipe. One end of the second air rod is connected to a pressure plate. In this invention, the pressure plate is pushed down by the second air rod to press the clamped sensor, thereby improving the tightness of the connection between the Bluetooth sensor and the firmware burning tester.

[0013] Furthermore, a test computer is connected to one side surface of the workbench, and a programmable power supply is electrically connected between the test computer and the firmware burning tester. In this invention, the programmable power supply powers the Bluetooth sensor under test and reads the current value of the sensor under test.

[0014] Furthermore, the handling mechanism includes two robotic arms mounted on the upper surface of the workbench. The two robotic arms are symmetrically arranged with the conveyor belt as the central axis. The execution end of the robotic arms is connected to a suction cup. In this invention, the robotic arms drive the suction cup back and forth between the discharge end of the conveyor belt and the shielding box, and the suction cup adsorbs the Bluetooth sensor under test to assist in the handling of the sensor.

[0015] Furthermore, the code verification mechanism includes a support frame mounted on the upper surface of the workbench and a code verification gun mounted inside the support frame. In this invention, the support frame provides support for the code verification gun, and the code verification gun scans the code affixed to the surface of the sensor to obtain the Bluetooth sensor SN code.

[0016] Furthermore, the top of the shielding box is connected to a box cover via a hinge. First rotating seats are installed on both sides of the box cover. A third electric telescopic rod is rotatably connected to the side of the first rotating seat away from the shielding box via a rotating shaft. A second rotating seat is rotatably connected to the end of the third electric telescopic rod away from the first rotating seat via a rotating shaft. The second rotating seat is installed on the outer surface of the shielding box. In this invention, the box cover can be automatically opened by the extension of the third electric telescopic rod and the angular displacement between the third electric telescopic rod and the first and second rotating seats.

[0017] Based on the above technical solution of a Bluetooth sensor detection device, a Bluetooth sensor detection method will also be provided, including the following steps:

[0018] Step 1: Label the Bluetooth sensor using a labeling machine, and transport the labeled Bluetooth sensor via a conveyor belt.

[0019] Step 2: Scan the Bluetooth sensor delivered in Step 1 with a code scanner to obtain the initial SN code;

[0020] Step 3: The robotic arm moves the suction cup close to the Bluetooth sensor that has been verified in Step 2. The suction cup is used to attract the Bluetooth sensor. The robotic arm carries the Bluetooth sensor into the shielded box and clamps it with a fixture so that the fixture can be connected to the firmware burning tester.

[0021] Step 4: Close the shielding box and perform Bluetooth sensor detection using a firmware burning tester. The Bluetooth sensor detection includes a first test and a second test.

[0022] Furthermore, the first test in step four includes a drop voltage test, an advertising test, an advertising broadcast current test, and a dormant current test.

[0023] Furthermore, the second test in step four includes the following sub-steps:

[0024] Step 1: Perform Test 1 and save the test data. Test 1 includes recording the MAC ID and testing the battery voltage drop.

[0025] Step 2: The Bluetooth sensor tested in Step 1 is transported via a conveyor belt. The Bluetooth sensor is then removed and moved to the conveyor belt by a robotic arm and suction cups to retrieve the Bluetooth sensor.

[0026] Step 3: Repeat steps one through three for the Bluetooth sensor extracted in step 2 to perform test two. Test two includes recording the MAC ID, completing the test, and outputting the test data to the test computer.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0028] Firstly, this invention can locate the Bluetooth sensor while reducing the excessive force applied to the sensor due to direct contact between the clamping block and the sensor, thus preventing damage to the sensor. Specifically, the first electric telescopic rod drives the clamping block closer to the Bluetooth sensor. During the clamping process, the buffer plate comes into contact with the sensor first. The extension and retraction of the first pneumatic rod connected to the buffer plate provides buffering for the clamping of the Bluetooth sensor, reducing the excessive force applied to the sensor due to direct contact between the clamping block and the sensor, thus preventing damage to the sensor.

[0029] Secondly, when the first air rod retracts in this invention, the gas inside the first air rod enters the second air rod connected to it through a pipe, so that the second air rod extends, thereby pushing the pressure plate down through the second air rod, so that the pressure plate presses down on the clamped sensor, thereby improving the tightness of the connection between the Bluetooth sensor and the firmware burning tester.

[0030] The present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Attached Figure Description

[0040] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, a more comprehensive description of the present invention will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate several embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described in the text. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the present invention more thorough and complete.

[0041] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this document are for illustrative purposes only.

[0042] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly associated with those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein in the specification of this invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments and is not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0043] For the implementation examples, please refer to the appendix. Figure 1-8 A Bluetooth sensor detection device includes a workbench 10, one end of which is connected to a conveyor belt 20. A code verification mechanism 30 is connected to the upper surface of the workbench 10 near the conveyor belt 20. A testing mechanism 40 is connected to the upper surface of the other end of the workbench 10. A conveying mechanism 50 is provided between the testing mechanism 40 and the code verification mechanism 30.

[0044] The testing mechanism 40 includes a shielded box 41 installed on the upper surface of the workbench 10, a firmware burning tester 42 connected inside the shielded box 41, and a clamp 43 connected to one side of the firmware burning tester 42.

[0045] The clamp 43 includes a lifting and conveying component 431 disposed inside the shielding box 41, a plurality of support rods 432 with one end mounted on the outer surface of the firmware burning tester 42 and the other end mounted on the inner wall of the shielding box 41, and two first electric telescopic rods 433 mounted on the upper surface of the support rods 432 and located at the bottom end of the support rods 432, wherein the actuating end of the first electric telescopic rods 433 is connected to a clamping block 434;

[0046] The lifting and conveying component 431 includes a plurality of second electric telescopic rods 4311 arranged in a straight line array on the inner surface of the shielding box 41, and a conveyor belt 4312 connected to the actuating end of the second electric telescopic rods 4311.

[0047] For details, please refer to the appendix. Figure 4 and 5 A plurality of first air rods 4341 are installed at the bottom end of one side surface of the clamping block 434 near another clamping block 434. A buffer plate 4342 is installed on the side surface of the first air rod 4341 away from the clamping block 434. A stop ring 4346 is installed on the outer surface of one end of the first air rod 4341 that extends into the clamping block 434. A spring 4343 sleeved on the outside of the first air rod 4341 is abutted on one side of the stop ring 4346.

[0048] The top end of the clamping block 434 is connected to a second air rod 4344, and the second air rod 4344 is connected to the first air rod 4341 through a pipe. One end of the second air rod 4344 is connected to a pressure plate 4345.

[0049] A test computer 11 is connected to one side surface of the workbench 10, and a programmable power supply 12 is electrically connected between the test computer 11 and the firmware burning tester 42.

[0050] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the first electric telescopic rod 433 drives the clamping block 434 to approach the Bluetooth sensor. During the process of clamping the Bluetooth sensor by the clamping block 434, the buffer plate 4342 comes into contact with the sensor first. Thus, the extension and retraction of the first air rod 4341 connected to the buffer plate 4342 provides buffer for the clamping of the Bluetooth sensor, reducing the excessive force applied to the sensor due to the direct contact between the clamping block 434 and the sensor, which could damage the sensor.

[0051] The spring 4343 pushes the termination ring 4346 to extend the first air rod 4341 so that the first air rod 4341 can drive the buffer plate 4342 on it to contact the sensor.

[0052] Furthermore, when the first air rod 4341 retracts, the gas inside the first air rod 4341 enters the second air rod 4344 connected to it through the pipe, so that the second air rod 4344 extends, thereby pushing the pressure plate 4345 down through the second air rod 4344, so that the pressure plate 4345 presses down on the clamped sensor, thereby improving the tightness of the connection between the Bluetooth sensor and the firmware burning tester 42.

[0053] Furthermore, the Bluetooth sensor under test is powered by the programmable power supply 12, and the current value of the sensor under test is read.

[0054] For details, please refer to the appendix. Figure 7 and 8 The conveying mechanism 50 includes two robotic arms 51 mounted on the upper surface of the workbench 10. The two robotic arms 51 are symmetrically arranged with the conveyor belt 20 as the central axis. The execution end of the robotic arms 51 is connected to a suction cup 52.

[0055] The code verification mechanism 30 includes a support frame 31 installed on the upper surface of the workbench 10, and a code verification gun 32 installed inside the support frame 31.

[0056] The top of the shielding box 41 is connected to the box cover 411 by a hinge. The two sides of the box cover 411 are each equipped with a first rotating seat 412. The side of the first rotating seat 412 away from the shielding box 41 is rotatably connected to a third electric telescopic rod 413 by a rotating shaft. The end of the third electric telescopic rod 413 away from the first rotating seat 412 is rotatably connected to a second rotating seat 414 by a rotating shaft. The second rotating seat 414 is installed on the outer surface of the shielding box 41.

[0057] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the robotic arm 51 drives the suction cup 52 back and forth between the discharge end of the conveyor belt 20 and the shielding box 41, and the suction cup 52 adsorbs the Bluetooth sensor under test to assist in the handling of the sensor.

[0058] Furthermore, the support frame 31 provides support without the code verification gun 32, and the code verification gun 32 scans the code affixed to the surface of the sensor to obtain the Bluetooth sensor SN code;

[0059] Furthermore, the extension of the third electric telescopic rod 413 and the angular displacement between the third electric telescopic rod 413 and the first rotating seat 412 and the second rotating seat 414 enable the cover 411 to open automatically. Since the longitudinal sections of the shielding box 41 and the cover 411 are both right-angled trapezoids, the cover 411 can be opened quickly.

[0060] like Figure 1-8 As shown, according to the above embodiments, a Bluetooth sensor detection method will also be provided, including the following steps:

[0061] Step 1: Label the Bluetooth sensor using a labeling machine, and transport the labeled Bluetooth sensor via conveyor belt 20.

[0062] Step 2: Scan the Bluetooth sensor delivered in Step 1 with the code scanner 32 to obtain the initial SN code;

[0063] Step 3: The robotic arm 51 drives the suction cup 52 to approach the Bluetooth sensor that has been verified in Step 2. The suction cup 52 adsorbs the Bluetooth sensor, and the robotic arm 51 carries the Bluetooth sensor into the shielded box 41. The sensor is then held by the clamp 43 so that the clamp 43 is connected to the firmware burning tester 42.

[0064] Step 4: Close the shielding box 41 and perform Bluetooth sensor detection using the firmware burning tester 42. The Bluetooth sensor detection includes a first test and a second test.

[0065] Furthermore, the first test in step four includes a drop voltage test, an advertising test, an advertising broadcast current test, and a dormant current test.

[0066] Furthermore, the second test in step four includes the following sub-steps:

[0067] Step 1: Perform Test 1 and save the test data. Test 1 includes recording the MAC ID and testing the battery voltage drop.

[0068] Step 2: The Bluetooth sensor tested in Step 1 is transported via conveyor belt 4312, and the Bluetooth sensor is removed and moved to conveyor belt 20 by robotic arm 51 and suction cup 52 to remove the Bluetooth sensor.

[0069] Step 3: Repeat steps one through three for the Bluetooth sensor taken out in step 2 to perform test two. Test two includes recording the MAC ID, completing the test, and outputting the test data to the test computer 11.

[0070] The specific operation method of this invention is as follows:

[0071] The labeling machine applies labels to the Bluetooth sensor, the conveyor belt 20 transports the labeled Bluetooth sensor, and the code scanner 32 scans the transported Bluetooth sensor to obtain the initial SN code.

[0072] The robotic arm 51 drives the suction cup 52 to approach the Bluetooth sensor that has been verified. The suction cup 52 adsorbs the Bluetooth sensor. The robotic arm 51 carries the Bluetooth sensor into the shielded box 41 and clamps it with the fixture 43 so that the fixture 43 is connected to the firmware burning tester 42.

[0073] After closing the shielding box 41, the Bluetooth sensor is tested by the firmware burning tester 42. The second electric telescopic rod 4311 drives the connected conveyor belt 4312 to descend, and the tested Bluetooth sensor is transported by the conveyor belt 4312 so that the Bluetooth sensor can be moved to the other end of the conveyor belt 4312 for easy gripping by the suction cup 52 on the robotic arm 51 on that side, so as to facilitate uninterrupted testing of the Bluetooth sensor.

[0074] The present invention has been described by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner.
