Background Technology

[0002] A switching power supply is a type of power supply that uses modern power electronics technology to control the on and off time ratio of switching transistors to maintain a stable output voltage. Switching power supplies are generally composed of a pulse width modulation control IC and a MOSFET. With the development and innovation of power electronics technology, switching power supply technology is also constantly innovating. Switching power supplies are widely used in almost all electronic devices due to their small size, light weight and high efficiency. They are an indispensable power supply method for the rapid development of today's electronic information industry.

[0003] However, during the use of switching power supplies, it is necessary to detect the electromagnetic radiation of the power supply in order to understand the radiation parameters. In the current technology, there is no special device for testing the electromagnetic radiation of switching power supplies. Moreover, different models of switching power supplies require different devices for testing. For example, larger switching power supplies require larger devices for testing, and correspondingly, smaller switching power supplies require smaller devices for testing, which is extremely inconvenient to use.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to improve the testing equipment for switching power supplies in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a testing device and method for electromagnetic compatibility radiated interference of switching power supplies. By rotating the drive nut on the drive gear, the drive gear shaft rotates inside the device housing. As the drive gear rotates, the upper and lower detection plates move in opposite directions and protrude from the device housing. The detection antenna is not blocked as the lower detection plate moves away. At the same time, the power switch can also be directly tested through the through slot on the lower detection plate, improving the flexibility of the device and the detection range.

Detailed Implementation

[0036] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.

[0037] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the switching power supply electromagnetic compatibility radiated interference testing device provided in this embodiment includes a device housing 1. A drive gear 5 is rotatably arranged inside the device housing 1. An upper detection plate 2 is slidably arranged on the upper side of the drive gear 5, and a lower detection plate 3 is slidably arranged on the lower side of the drive gear 5. A drive rack 4 is fixedly arranged on the lower side of the upper detection plate 2 and the upper side of the lower detection plate 3. The drive rack 4 is meshed with the drive gear 5. The drive gear 5 is used to push the upper detection plate 2 or the lower detection plate 3 left and right.

[0038] An upper detection plate 2 is located at the top and a lower detection plate 3 is located at the bottom inside the device housing 1. During the counterclockwise rotation of the drive gear 5, the drive gear 5 is rotatably located in the middle of the device housing 1 via a drive gear shaft 502. One of the drive gear shafts 502 passes through the device housing 1 and is connected to a drive nut 501. The drive nut 501 is located on the outside of the device housing 1. By rotating the drive nut 501 on the drive gear 5, the drive gear shaft 502 rotates inside the device housing 1. As the drive gear 5 rotates, the drive racks 4 on the upper detection plate 2 and the lower detection plate 3 mesh with the drive gear 5, and the upper detection plate 2 and the lower detection plate 3 will move in opposite directions. The upper detection plate 2 and the lower detection plate 3 will protrude out of the device housing 1, thereby expanding the detection range.

[0039] Several evenly distributed detection antennas 9 are fixedly installed on the lower side of both the upper detection plate 2 and the lower detection plate 3. A through slot 303 corresponding to the detection antennas 9 on the upper detection plate 2 is opened on the lower detection plate 3.

[0040] The bottom side of the lower detection plate 3 and the bottom side of the upper detection plate 2 are both equipped with detection antennas 9. The detection antennas 9 on the bottom side of the upper detection plate 2 will not be blocked as the lower detection plate 3 is moved away. At the same time, the power switch can also be directly detected through the through slot 303 on the lower detection plate 3, which improves the flexibility of the device and the detection range.

[0041] Each of the upper detection plate 2 and the lower detection plate 3 has a rotatable support foot 7 at one corresponding end. When the support foot 7 is lowered, it supports the device housing 1, preventing direct contact with the switching power supply. The structure is simple, easy to store later, and improves ease of use. Specifically:

[0042] A support foot connecting block 704 is fixedly installed on the support foot 7. The support foot connecting block 704 is fixedly connected to the support foot pivot 705. A telescopic plate housing 701 is fixedly installed below the support foot pivot 705. A telescopic rod inner rod 702 is slidably installed inside the telescopic plate housing 701. An anti-slip pad 703 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the telescopic rod inner rod 702. The upper detection plate 2 and the lower detection plate 3 move in opposite directions. An upper support foot support plate 201 is opened at one end of the upper detection plate 2. An upper support foot rotating groove 202 is fixedly installed at one end of the upper support foot support plate 201. A lower support foot support plate 301 is opened at one end of the lower detection plate 3. A lower support foot rotating groove 302 is fixedly installed on the lower support foot support plate 301.

[0043] The support foot 7 is rotatably mounted inside the upper support foot support plate 201 or the lower support foot support plate 301 via the support foot pivot 705. When the support foot 7 is rotated downward, it can support the device housing 1. During the rotation, the support foot pivot 705 on the support foot connecting block 704 rotates in the upper support foot slot 202, and the support foot connecting block 704 rotates in the upper support foot support plate 201. At the same time, the telescopic rod 702 inside the telescopic plate housing 701 can be pulled down according to the height of the power switch to extend the support foot 7, thereby improving the range of use and flexibility of the device.

[0044] Meanwhile, a first magnet 10 is fixedly installed on the bottom side of the lower detection plate 3, and the first magnet 10 corresponds to the support foot 7 on the lower detection plate 3. A second magnet 11 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the upper detection plate 2, and the second magnet 11 corresponds to the support foot 7 on the upper detection plate 2. When not in use, the inner rod 702 of the telescopic rod is retracted into the interior of the telescopic plate housing 701, and then the support foot 7 is rotated in the opposite direction. After rotation, the support foot 7 on the upper detection plate 2 is attracted by the second magnet 11 on the upper detection plate 2, which fixes the support foot 7. After rotation, the support foot 7 on the lower detection plate 3 is attracted by the first magnet 10 and fixed, which improves the stability of the support foot 7 and facilitates the storage of the device housing 1.

[0045] After folding, a housing handle 8 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the device housing 1. The housing handle 8 is equipped with an anti-slip sleeve, which can be used to carry the device housing 1, thus improving the convenience of use.

[0046] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, sliders 6 are fixedly installed on both sides of the upper detection plate 2 and the lower detection plate 3. A cylindrical slider head 601 is fixedly installed on the slider 6. The inner side of the device housing 1 is provided with a detection plate groove 101 corresponding to the slider 6. The slider 6 is slidably connected to the detection plate groove 101.

[0047] While the upper detection plate 2 and the lower detection plate 3 slide relative to each other, the sliders 6 on the upper detection plate 2 and the lower detection plate 3 slide in the detection plate grooves 101 inside the device housing 1, ensuring the stability of the sliding of the upper detection plate 2 and the lower detection plate 3.

[0048] Meanwhile, a fixing plate 102 is fixedly installed at both ends of the device housing 1. A third magnet 12 is fixedly installed on the outer side of one of the fixing plates 102. The third magnet 12 corresponds to the support foot 7. When the support foot 7 rotates downward, the support foot 7 and the third magnet 12 on the device housing 1 are attracted by the magnetism, which improves the stability of 7.

[0049] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the testing method of the switching power supply electromagnetic compatibility radiated interference testing device provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0050] Step 1: Rotate the drive nut 501 on the drive gear 5 on the device housing 1 according to the width of the power switch, so that the upper detection plate 2 and the lower detection plate 3 slide relative to each other to expand the detection range;

[0051] Step 2: Then rotate the support foot 7 on the upper detection plate 2 downward from the upper side of the upper detection plate 2, and rotate the support foot 7 on the lower detection plate 3 downward to support the device housing 1;

[0052] Step 3: Adjust the height of the two support feet 7 so that the device housing 1 is suspended above the power supply.

[0053] Step 4: Activate the detection antennas 9 on the upper detection board 2 and the lower detection board 3 to test the switching power supply;

[0054] Step 5: After use, push the inner rod 702 of the telescopic rod on the support foot 7 into the inside of the telescopic plate outer shell 701 and make it fit with the first magnet 10 or the second magnet 11. Then rotate the drive gear 5 in the opposite direction.
