Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a No. 8 high-frequency contact crimping pin crimping pin cable testing device, belonging to the field of electronic product cable testing. Background Art

[0002] The use of No. 8 high-frequency contact crimping pins in aerospace cable products is increasing. The existing methods involved in the detection stage of the No. 8 high-frequency contact cable production link mainly include manual testing methods and imported equipment testing methods. Among them, the manual testing method mainly uses a point-by-point measurement mode for multiple personnel to detect, which has low work efficiency and cannot meet the daily growing production needs. At the same time, the introduction of human factors has led to a surge in uncertainties in the quality detection of No. 8 high-frequency contact cables. The imported equipment detection is mainly to test the path relationship between the twisted pair and the No. 8 crimping pin by selecting the corresponding adapter, which can meet the test needs to a certain extent. However, the equipment can only be used for the path relationship test between the twisted pair and the No. 8 crimping pin, and cannot be used to test whether the shielded wire is connected to the shell or the wire is damaged. The test coverage cannot fully meet the detection requirements. At the same time, the test results are data, which require secondary manual interpretation before a specific test conclusion can be drawn, and comprehensive automated detection has not been fully realized.

[0036] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the embodiments disclosed in the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] The embodiment of the present application discloses a No. 8 high-frequency contact crimping pin crimping pin cable testing device, which is used to detect the tested cable, at least one end of the tested cable is connected to the No. 8 contact, and the contact points of the No. 8 contact are connected to the wires in the cable one by one, such as Figure 1 As shown, the test device includes a switching module, a control module and a power supply module.

[0038] The object under test is connected to the control module through the adapter module, and the control module is used to detect the conductive relationship, assembly position and shielding layer processing quality of the inner pins of the No. 8 high-frequency contact.

[0039] The light-emitting LED diode is used as the basis for interpreting the test results. The test results of the test device are directly interpreted from the light emission of the light-emitting LED diode. If the test is qualified, the corresponding path qualified light will be on. If the test is unqualified, the light of this path will not be on, and the light of the abnormal path will be on.

[0040] The test device adapter module has the function of adapting to various terminal shapes.

[0041] The power module uses a rechargeable lithium battery as the power supply. The battery is supplemented under the control of the charging board. At the same time, the overcurrent protector ensures that there is no over-current damage during the testing process of the pin cable test device.

[0042] Before the test, the test program loop is closed through the adapter of the adapter module itself, and the test device self-detection is started point by point to complete the self-check of the test device of the present invention to confirm that the state is intact.

[0043] Through the adapter module, according to the characteristics of the No. 8 high-frequency contact of the object under test, such as the types of terminals corresponding to single-head and double-head, the corresponding adapter in the conversion module is selected to connect the object under test to the control module to ensure that the test program can be started in a closed loop.

[0044] Through the result interpretation module, the control board is used to test the connection relationship, assembly position, and shielding layer processing quality of the pins (i.e. contacts) in the No. 8 high-frequency contact piece one by one. The test results are intuitively displayed and interpreted through the light-emitting LED diode light results.

[0045] The adapter module includes a path test adapter cable and / or a shielded test adapter cable, one end of the shielded test adapter cable is connected to the shielding layer of the cable under test, and the other end is used to connect to one end of the main line; one end of the path test adapter cable is connected to contact No. 8, and the other end is used to connect to the other end of the main line.

[0046] The control module, power module and result interpretation module are all arranged on the main line.

[0047] The control module includes multiple control branches, each of which is connected with a switch Ki, i being the number of contact points to be tested that is not less than 8 contact pieces, and each switch Ki corresponds one-to-one to a contact point of the 8 contact piece.

[0048] The result reading module includes a resistor connected to the main circuit and an indicator light, and multiple control branches correspond to the indicator light. Figure 2 As shown, for the cable under test with one end connected to contact No. 8 or both ends connected to contact No. 8, when performing a shielding test, the connection method is as follows: one end of the shielding test adapter cable is connected to the end of the main line, and the other end is connected to the shielding layer of the cable under test; one end of the path test adapter cable is connected to the end of the main line, and the other end is connected to a contact No. 8 to be tested. Under normal circumstances, when "switch K1" is closed, the shielding test of the first contact position of contact No. 8 is performed, and the indicator light indicating "shielding abnormality" will not light up. Similarly, close each switch K1 in turn. In an abnormal situation, press "switch K1" and the indicator light will light up. At this time, the shielding is abnormal, indicating that the first contact of contact No. 8 is short-circuited with the shielding layer. And so on. Connect the path test adapter cable to each contact No. 8 to be tested, and perform the above-mentioned tests. As shown Figure 3 As shown, for a cable under test with one end connected to contact No. 8, this result judgment module is also used when conducting a path measurement.

[0049] Alternatively, the result interpretation module includes multiple interpretation branches connected to the main line, each interpretation branch is connected to a resistor and an indicator light Li, and each switch Ki corresponds to an indicator light Li. Figure 4 As shown, when the cable pair under test with both ends connected to contact piece 8 is subjected to path measurement, the result judgment module is used.

[0050] The test method is as follows:

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, for the tested cable with one end connected to contact No. 8, when conducting the path test, the connection method is: one end of the shielded test adapter cable is connected to the end of the main line, and the other end is connected to the shielding layer of the tested cable; one end of the path test adapter cable is connected to the end of the main line, and the other end is connected to contact No. 8. First, perform the shielding test. If there is no abnormality, use a shorting tool to short-circuit the first contact of contact No. 8 and the shielding layer, and close "switch K1". If the indicator light L1 is on, it means that the first contact of contact No. 8 is normal, and so on. In the case of abnormality, close "switch K1". If the indicator light L1 is not on, it means "shielding abnormality", indicating that the first contact of contact No. 8 is mixed with the other contacts of contact No. 8. At this time, continue to close "switch K2", "switch K3"... "switch Ki" in sequence until "switch Kx" is closed, x∈[2, i]. If the corresponding indicator light Lx is on, it is found that the first contact of contact No. 8 is mixed with the xth contact of contact No. 8.

[0052] like Figure 4 As shown, for the cable under test with both ends connected to contact No. 8, when conducting the path measurement, the connection method is as follows: the two ends of the cable under test are end A and end B respectively, one end of a path test adapter cable is connected to the end of the main line, and the other end is connected to contact No. 8 connected to end A; one end of another path test adapter cable is connected to the end of the main line, and the other end is connected to contact No. 8 connected to end B. Under normal circumstances, close "switch K1", that is, indicator light L1 lights up, and so on, continue to close "switch K2", "switch K3" ... "switch Ki" in sequence. In abnormal circumstances, close "switch K1", but indicator light L2 lights up, that is, the first contact of contact No. 8 and the second contact of contact No. 8 are mixed. If "switch K1" is closed, but indicator lights L1 and L2 are both on, it means that there is a short circuit between the first contact of contact No. 8 and the second contact of contact No. 8.
