[0024] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0025] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a probe, wherein the probe 1 includes a probe housing 100 , a probe body 200 and a spiral guide structure 300 .
[0026] The probe housing 100 is cylindrical and has an axially extending cavity 110 therein. The probe housing 100 may be made of high-strength metal material to ensure structural strength and service life. The inner wall of the cavity 110 is precisely processed to ensure that the probe body 200 can slide smoothly therein.
[0027] The probe body 200 is slidably disposed in the cavity 110, and a contact portion 210 for contacting a test point is disposed at the bottom end of the probe body 200. The contact portion 210 is made of a material with good conductive properties, and its surface can be subjected to gold plating or other treatments to improve the conductive properties. When in use, the contact portion 210 extends out of the bottom end of the probe housing 100 for electrically contacting a test point of the workpiece to be tested.
[0028] The spiral guide structure 300 includes a spiral guide groove 310 and a roller assembly 320, wherein the spiral guide groove 310 is arranged on the inner wall of the probe housing 100, extends along the axial direction of the probe housing 100 and surrounds the inner wall of the probe housing 100 for at least one circle, and the groove wall of the spiral guide groove 310 is a wavy structure, and the wavy structure is periodically distributed along the extension direction of the spiral guide groove 310. The wavy structure can generate axial micro-vibration during the compression process of the probe body 200, which is beneficial for the probe 1 to penetrate the oxide layer on the surface of the test point.
[0029] See also Figure 2 The roller assembly 320 includes a central shaft 321, a rolling body 322 and an outer ring 323. The inner end of the central shaft 321 is fixedly connected to the probe body 200, and the outer end thereof is used to support the rolling body 322. The rolling body 322 includes a precision bearing, which is sleeved on the central shaft 321 and can rotate freely around the central shaft 321. The outer ring 323 is fixedly sleeved on the outer periphery of the rolling body 322, and its outer surface is in rolling contact with the groove wall of the spiral guide groove 310.
[0030] When the contact portion 210 is squeezed by an external force, the probe body 200 drives the roller assembly 320 to move upward. Since the outer ring 323 cooperates with the groove wall of the spiral guide groove 310, the probe body 200 will be driven to produce self-rotational motion during the upward movement. At the same time, the wavy structure will cause the probe body 200 to produce axial micro-vibration. This composite motion mode of rotational motion combined with micro-vibration can significantly improve the ability of the probe 1 to penetrate the oxide layer and ensure the reliability of the test.
[0031] In the embodiment of the present application, a special spiral guide structure 300 is provided in the probe housing, the compression motion of the probe 1 is cleverly converted into rotational motion, and micro-vibration is generated through the wave-like structure, which effectively solves the technical problem of insufficient penetration of the existing probe 1 when testing test points with severe pollution or oxidation. At the same time, the roller assembly is used to replace the traditional sliding structure, which significantly reduces the wear between parts and increases the service life of the probe 1.
[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment further discloses the assembly structure of the probe housing 100 and the specific arrangement of the elastic support mechanism on the basis of the first embodiment.
[0033] The probe housing 100 includes a first housing 120 and a second housing 130. The upper housing 120 and the second housing 130 can be detachably connected by threaded connection, which is convenient for the installation and maintenance of the probe 1. Specifically, one end of the first housing 120 is provided with an external thread, and one end of the second housing 130 is provided with an internal thread matching the external thread. The bottom of the second housing 130 is provided with a through hole 131 for the probe body 200 to extend out, and the inner diameter of the through hole 131 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the probe body 200, ensuring that the probe body 200 can slide freely.
[0034] The probe body 200 has a first clamping platform 221 and a second clamping platform 222 disposed at one end thereof, so that the first housing 120 can be securely mounted on the probe body 200. This dual clamping platform design not only enhances the positioning accuracy of the probe body 200, but also provides a reliable installation foundation for the elastic support mechanism.
[0035] Further, specifically, the probe body 200 is relatively provided with a first positioning boss 223 and a second positioning boss 224. The first positioning boss 223 is located at the upper part of the probe body 200, and the second positioning boss 224 is located at the middle part of the probe body 200. The inner wall of the first shell 120 is provided with a step surface adapted to the first positioning boss 223 and the second positioning boss 224, so that the probe body 200 can be accurately positioned. This double boss design not only enhances the positioning accuracy of the probe body 200, but also provides a reliable installation foundation for the elastic support mechanism.
[0036] The probe 1 of this embodiment also includes a first elastic member 410 and a second elastic member 420, which are used to provide the elastic force required for the reciprocating motion of the probe body 200. In the embodiment of the present application, a first mounting step (not shown) is also provided at the bottom of the first shell. One end of the first elastic member 410 is fixedly connected to the first mounting step in the first shell 120, and the other end of the first elastic member 410 is respectively abutted against the first clamping platform 221 and the second clamping platform 222 of the probe body 200. One end of the second elastic member 420 is abutted against the probe body 200, and the other end of the second elastic member 420 is fixedly connected to the probe housing 100. The first elastic member 410 and the second elastic member 420 are used to provide the elastic force required for the reciprocating motion of the probe 1 body.
[0037] When the probe 1 is working, when the probe body 200 is subjected to upward pressure, the first elastic member 410 and the second elastic member 420 are compressed at the same time. Due to the design of the double elastic member, a more uniform and stable elastic support can be provided, effectively preventing the probe body 200 from tilting during the compression process. At the same time, the design of the double elastic member can also optimize the mechanical properties of the probe 1, so that the probe 1 can maintain an appropriate test pressure under different compression degrees.
[0038] In this embodiment, by adopting a split housing structure and a double elastic support mechanism, not only the assembly and maintenance of the probe 1 are facilitated, but also the stability and reliability of the movement of the probe 1 are significantly improved. At the same time, the carefully designed positioning structure ensures that the probe 1 always maintains good coaxiality during use, effectively improving the accuracy of the test.
[0039] In addition, the first elastic member 410 and the third elastic member are disposed at positions corresponding to the first positioning boss 223 and the second positioning boss 224 , forming a stable three-point support structure, further improving the stability and reliability of the movement of the probe 1 .
[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, based on the above-mentioned embodiments, this embodiment further discloses a specific connection structure of the probe body 200 and its protection design.
[0041] The probe body 200 includes a probe core 230, a first connecting portion 240 and a second connecting portion 250. The probe core 230 is cylindrical, and its outer surface is processed with high precision. The first connecting portion 240 and the second connecting portion 250 are respectively fixedly connected to the upper part and the middle part of the probe core 230 to form an integrated structure. The outer diameter of the first connecting portion 240 is larger than the outer diameter of the probe core 230, forming a first positioning boss 223. The outer diameter of the second connecting portion 250 is also larger than the outer diameter of the probe core 230, forming a second positioning boss 224.
[0042] In the embodiment of the present application, the probe 1 further includes a third elastic member,
[0043] Please combine Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first elastic member 410 is fixedly mounted on the first positioning boss 223 and sleeved on the outer periphery of the first connecting portion 240, and the third elastic member is fixedly mounted on the second positioning boss 224 and sleeved on the outer periphery of the second connecting portion 250. This structural design enables a stable connection between the two elastic members and the probe body 200, ensuring that no relative displacement occurs during the reciprocating motion.
[0044] On the outer wall of the probe body 200, a plurality of roller assemblies 320 are evenly arranged along the circumferential direction. In this embodiment, three roller assemblies 320 are preferably arranged, and they are arranged at intervals from each other in the circumferential direction. These roller structures cooperate with the spiral guide groove 310 to form a multi-point support, which effectively prevents the probe body 200 from shaking or eccentricity during movement.
[0045] In order to prevent external impurities from entering the spiral guide structure 300, a sealing ring (not shown) is provided at the bottom of the probe housing 100. The sealing ring (not shown) is made of wear-resistant elastic material, and its inner diameter is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the probe body 200, forming a dynamic seal with the probe body 200. This sealing design not only ensures the free movement of the probe body 200, but also effectively prevents impurities such as dust from entering the interior of the probe 1, thereby extending the service life of the probe 1.
[0046] The outer edge of the sealing ring (not shown) is provided with a positioning structure, which can be firmly installed in the annular groove at the bottom of the probe housing 100. At the same time, the inner edge of the sealing ring (not shown) is designed as a lip-shaped structure, which can automatically adjust the sealing pressure with the movement of the probe body 200 to ensure a good sealing effect.
[0047] This embodiment realizes reliable connection between the various parts of the probe body through reasonable structural design, and significantly improves the operation stability and service life of the probe 1 through multi-point support and effective sealing measures. In particular, the design of the sealing structure solves the problem that the existing probe 1 is easily contaminated during use, making the probe 1 more suitable for use in various harsh environments.
[0048] The embodiment of the present application provides a probe 1, including a probe housing 100, a probe body 200 and a spiral guide structure 300, wherein a cavity 110 is arranged inside the probe housing 100, a contact portion 210 is arranged at one end of the probe body 200, and the probe body 200 is slidably arranged in the cavity 110, and the spiral guide structure 300 includes a spiral guide groove 310 and a roller assembly 320, wherein the spiral guide groove 310 is arranged on the inner wall of the probe housing 200, and one end of the roller assembly is fixed to the probe body 100, and when the contact portion 210 is squeezed by an external force, the other end of the roller assembly 320 generates a self-rotation motion along the spiral guide groove 310. Through the above arrangement, the probe 1 generates vertical compression, self-rotation motion and micro-vibration generated by the spiral guide structure 300 during the test process, and this three-dimensional composite motion can more effectively break through the oxide layer and achieve stable electrical contact, the vertical compression provides the basic test pressure, the rotational motion generates a drilling effect, and the micro-vibration can remove impurities on the contact surface, thereby improving the detection efficiency of the probe.
[0049] The present application also provides a detection device. The specific implementation of the detection device can refer to the above-mentioned probe 1, which will not be described in detail here.
