Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of circuit board testing, and in particular to a testing device and a testing method. Background Art

[0002] Electronic equipment usually needs to undergo production line testing before leaving the factory. After a product is finished with mass production, the PCB board used in the production line test can usually be reused for testing. During this process, a test device is needed to test the solder joints and other parts of the circuit board.

[0003] Currently, when testing a circuit board, a driving mechanism is mainly used to drive multiple sets of probes to move up and down to test the surface of the circuit board. During the test, in order to prevent the circuit board test position from being inaccurate, the circuit board is generally positioned by a positioning structure.

[0004] In the process of positioning circuit boards, existing circuit board testing devices generally require position sensors or pressure sensors to assist in positioning due to the different sizes of circuit boards. However, in actual testing, the sensors are prone to damage and accuracy loss after long-term use. Since circuit boards are relatively delicate components, the side walls of the circuit boards are often accidentally clamped during the positioning and clamping process, resulting in an increase in the loss rate of circuit board products during the testing process.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0043] Next, the present invention is described in detail with reference to schematic diagrams. For ease of illustration, cross-sectional views of device structures may be partially enlarged and not to scale when describing the embodiments of the present invention. Furthermore, the schematic diagrams are merely illustrative and should not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Furthermore, in actual production, three-dimensional dimensions, including length, width, and depth, should be included.

[0044] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0045] The present invention provides a testing device and a testing method, which replace the traditional positioning method during circuit board testing, thereby avoiding the problem of increased product loss rate due to circuit board mis-clamping caused by component failure during the circuit board testing.

[0046] Figures 1-8 The present invention shows a test device and a test method of the structure of the schematic diagram, please refer to Figures 1-8 This paper gives a detailed introduction to the test device and test method. Example 1

[0047] refer to Figures 1-8 The present invention discloses a testing device, the main body of which includes a platform 100, a positioning mechanism 200, a testing mechanism 300 and a blanking and resetting mechanism 400.

[0048] The platform 100 is used to support the entire device and the circuit board. A mounting frame 110 is provided on the top of the platform 100 to facilitate the installation of the test mechanism 300.

[0049] The positioning mechanism 200 is used to position and clamp the circuit board to be tested during operation. The positioning mechanism 200 is installed on the platform 100 and continuously positions and clamps both sides of the circuit board on the top surface of the platform 100 during operation. When both sides of the circuit board are positioned and clamped to a certain force, the positioning mechanism 200 automatically stops working. When the positioning mechanism 200 clamps both sides of the circuit board to a certain force, the positioning and clamping are completed and the positioning mechanism automatically stops working, thereby adapting to circuit boards of different sizes and providing overload protection for both sides of the circuit board.

[0050] The testing mechanism 300 is used to perform a test on the circuit board during operation. The testing mechanism 300 is mounted on the mounting frame 110. When both sides of the circuit board on the top surface of the platform 100 are clamped to a certain force by the positioning mechanism 200 and the positioning mechanism 200 automatically stops working, the testing mechanism 300 automatically starts working and performs a test on the circuit board on the top surface of the platform 100. When the positioning mechanism 200 completes positioning and clamping of the circuit board, it automatically drives the testing mechanism 300 to start working and complete a test on the circuit board.

[0051] The unloading and resetting mechanism 400 is used to automatically unload the tested circuit board when the testing mechanism 300 completes the testing work, and drive the positioning mechanism 200 and the testing mechanism 300 to return to their original positions. The unloading and resetting mechanism 400 is installed on the top side of the platform 100. When the testing mechanism 300 completes a test work, it automatically drives the unloading and resetting mechanism 400 to suck away the tested circuit board on the top of the platform 100 and drives the positioning mechanism 200 and the testing mechanism 300 to automatically reset. After the testing mechanism 300 completes the test, the unloading and resetting mechanism 400 automatically sucks away the tested circuit board and drives the positioning mechanism and the testing mechanism 300 to reset, so as to facilitate the testing of the next circuit board.

[0052] In this embodiment, the present invention further discloses a testing method, which includes the above testing device.

[0053] In this embodiment, the specific usage process is as follows: the circuit board to be tested is placed on the top of the table 100, and the positioning mechanism 200 is used to clamp and position the two sides of the circuit board. When the two sides of the circuit board are clamped to a certain force, the positioning mechanism 200 automatically completes the positioning. At this time, the testing mechanism 300 starts working and automatically performs a test on the circuit board. When the testing mechanism 300 completes the test of the circuit board, it drives the unloading and resetting mechanism 400 to work, sucks away the tested circuit board, and drives the positioning mechanism 200 and the testing mechanism 300 to automatically reset, thereby facilitating the next test. Example 2

[0054] Based on Example 1, the positioning mechanism 200 includes two clamping members 210 movably mounted on the platform 100 and a driving assembly 220 mounted on the platform 100 and driving the two clamping members 210 to approach each other during operation. The two clamping members 210 are used to clamp and position the two sides of the circuit board when they are close to each other, and the driving assembly 220 is used to drive the two clamping members 210 to approach each other during operation.

[0055] In this embodiment, one of the clamping members 210 includes a moving block 210a having an air groove 210a-1 on one side, a clamping block 210b located on one side of the moving block 210a and having a connecting column 210b-1 on the side wall, and a first elastic member 210c connected to the side wall of the moving block 210a at one end and connected to the side wall of the clamping block 210b at the other end, the connecting column 210b-1 is adapted to the air groove 210a-1, the moving block 210a is used to facilitate the installation and connection of the clamping block 210b and the first elastic member 210c, and the clamping block 210 b is used to position and clamp the side wall of the circuit board. The first elastic member 210c is used to deform after the clamping block 210b contacts the circuit board, thereby driving the connecting column 210b-1 to move. The connecting column 210b-1 cooperates with the air groove 210a-1 so that when the clamping block 210b is squeezed, as the first elastic member 210c is compressed, the connecting column 210b-1 continues to penetrate deeper into the air groove 210a-1, continuously squeezing the air in the air groove 210a-1 to the first connecting port 210a-2.

[0056] The driving assembly 220 includes a first threaded rod 220a installed in the groove at the top of the platform 100 and with opposite lines at both ends, a first limiting slide 220b located in the groove at the top of the platform 100, a first gear 220c installed on the side wall of the platform 100 and connected to the first threaded rod 220a, and a driving member 220d installed on the side wall of the platform 100 and connected to the first gear 220c. One end of the two moving blocks 210a is respectively threadedly connected to the two ends of the first threaded rod 220a, and the other end of the two moving blocks 210a is slidably sleeved on the first limiting slide 220b. 20b, one end of the first threaded rod 220a is connected to the first gear 220c through the first pulley group 220a-1, and the first threaded rod 220a is used to drive the two clamping members 210 to approach each other when rotating, and the first limiting slide bar 220b is used to limit the two clamping members 210, thereby preventing the first threaded rod 220a from driving the two clamping members 210 to rotate synchronously when rotating, and the first gear 220c is used to drive the first pulley group 220a-1 to rotate when rotating, and the first pulley group 220a-1 is used to drive the first threaded rod 220a to rotate when rotating.

[0057] In this embodiment, one side of the moving block 210a has a first connecting port 210a-2 in communication with the air groove 210a-1, for introducing the air squeezed out of the air groove 210a-1 into the second connecting tube 220d-5 through a hose;

[0058] The driving member 220d includes a driving motor 220d-1 mounted on the side wall of the platform 100, a first connecting cylinder 220d-2 located at the output end of the driving motor 220d-1 and having a limiting groove on its inner wall, a connecting column 220d-3 with one end extending into the limiting groove and having an annular limiting groove 220d-31 on the other end surface, a second gear 220d-4 located at one end of the connecting column 220d-3 and corresponding to the first gear 220c, and a second connecting port 220d-51 mounted on the side wall of the driving motor 220d-1 and having a second connecting port 220d-51 on the side wall. The second connecting tube 220d-5, the inner wall of the second connecting tube 220d-5 is movably connected with a telescopic rod 220d-52, the output end of the telescopic rod 220d-52 is provided with a limiting ring 220d-53 sleeved in the annular limiting groove 220d-31, the side wall of the second connecting tube 220d-5 is provided with a second elastic member connected to the side wall of the limiting ring 220d-53 at the other end, the second connecting port 220d-51 is connected to the first connecting port 210a-2 through a hose, and the driving motor 220d-1 is used to drive the first connecting port 210a-2 when working. The cylinder 220d-2 rotates, and the first connecting cylinder 220d-2 is used to drive the connecting column 220d-3 and the second gear 220d-4 to rotate when rotating. The connecting column 220d-3 is used to movably connect the second gear 220d-4 and the first connecting cylinder 220d-2. The second gear 220d-4 is used to drive the first gear 220c to rotate when rotating. The second connecting cylinder 220d-5 is used to push the telescopic rod 220d-52 outward after the high-pressure air enters the interior. The second connecting port 220d-51 is used to receive the air from the first connecting port. The high-pressure air in 210a-2, the telescopic rod 220d-52 is used to drive the limiting ring 220d-53 to move when telescoping, and the limiting ring 220d-53 is used to cooperate with the annular limiting groove 220d-31, so that when the telescopic rod 220d-52 moves, it drives the connecting column 220d-3 to move in the first connecting tube 220d-2, thereby driving the second gear 220d-4 to move, and the second elastic member is used to drive the telescopic rod 220d-52 to return to its original state under its own elastic force after the high-pressure air in the second connecting tube 220d-5 is discharged.

[0059] In this embodiment, the specific working process is as follows: when the circuit board on the top of the platform 100 is positioned, the driving motor 220d-1 works to drive the first connecting cylinder 220d-2, the connecting column 220d-3 and the second gear 220d-4 to rotate. At this time, the second gear 220d-4 rotates to drive the first gear 220c to rotate. When the first gear 220c rotates, it drives the first pulley group 220a-1 to rotate and then drives the first threaded rod 220a to rotate. When the first threaded rod 220a rotates, it drives the two clamping members 210 to approach each other. As the two clamping blocks 210b contact the side wall of the circuit board, the first elastic member 210c is continuously squeezed and deformed, and the connecting column 210b-1 is continuously The first elastic member 210c extends into the air groove 210a-1, and the air in the air groove 210a-1 is squeezed through the hose into the second connecting tube 220d-5, thereby driving the telescopic rod 220d-52 to move and then driving the connecting column 220d-3 and the second gear 220d-4 to move. When the deformation of the first elastic member 210c reaches a certain value, the two sides of the circuit board are completely positioned and clamped. At this time, the second gear 220d-4 is separated from the first gear 220c, so that the first threaded rod 220a stops rotating, and the two clamping members 210 stop approaching each other, completing the clamping and positioning of the circuit board, and playing the role of overload protection for both sides of the circuit board to avoid internal clamping of the two sides of the circuit board.

[0060] Based on Example 2, the testing device includes a probe module 310 movably mounted on the mounting frame 110, a gravity lifting assembly 320 mounted on the mounting frame 110 and transmission connected to the probe module 310, and a trigger assembly 330 mounted on the platform 100 and transmission connected to the second gear 220d-4 at one end and transmission connected to the gravity lifting assembly 320 at the other end. The probe module 310 is used to test the circuit board when it contacts the circuit board. The gravity lifting assembly 320 is used to drive the probe module 310 to complete the lifting and lowering movement through its own gravity when working, thereby reducing energy consumption. The trigger assembly 330 is used to trigger the gravity lifting assembly 320 to start working after the positioning mechanism 200 completes positioning.

One side of the probe module 310 is threadedly connected to the reciprocating screw, and the other side of the probe module 310 is slidingly connected to the second limiting slide bar 320b. The bevel gear set 320a is used to drive the reciprocating screw to rotate when it rotates, and the reciprocating screw is used to drive the probe module 310 to perform a reciprocating downward and upward movement when it rotates. The second limiting slide bar 320b is used to limit the probe module 310 to prevent the reciprocating screw from rotating synchronously when it rotates. The eccentric weight 320c is used to drive the bevel gear set 320a to rotate when it swings, and the test mechanism 300 is driven by its own gravity, thereby reducing energy consumption during testing.

The side wall of the mounting frame 110 is provided with a connecting frame 110a for facilitating the installation of the threaded barrel 330c. The side wall of the connecting frame 110a has a through groove 110a-1 with a limiting protrusion on the inner wall, which is used to limit the limiting threaded rod 330d. Therefore, when the threaded barrel 330c rotates, the limiting threaded rod 330d is driven to move telescopically.

[0063] The trigger assembly 330 includes a third gear 330a mounted on the side wall of the platform 100 and meshing with the gear ring on the surface of the driving column 220d-41, a second pulley group 330b mounted on the side wall of the platform 100 and connected to the third gear 330a at one end, a threaded cylinder 330c movably mounted on the side wall of the connecting frame 110a and connected to the other end of the second pulley group 330b at one end, and a limiting threaded rod 330d adapted to the threaded cylinder 330c and extending into the through groove 110a-1. The third gear 330a is used to drive the second pulley group 330b to rotate when it rotates, and the second pulley group 330b is used to drive the threaded cylinder 330c to rotate when it rotates. The threaded cylinder 330c is used to drive the limiting threaded rod 330d to telescopically move when it rotates. The side wall of the limiting threaded rod 330d is adapted to the limiting protrusion and one end corresponds to the bottom of the eccentric weight 320c, which is used to limit one side of the eccentric weight 320c to prevent it from swinging freely.

[0064] In this embodiment, the specific working process is as follows: when the positioning mechanism 200 completes the positioning and clamping of the circuit board, the second gear 220d-4 moves to separate from the first gear 220c. As the second gear 220d-4 moves, it drives the driving column 220d-41 to move, thereby driving the third gear 330a to rotate. When the third gear 330a rotates, it drives the second pulley group 330b to rotate. When the second pulley group 330b rotates, it drives the threaded barrel 330c to rotate. When the threaded barrel 330c rotates, it drives the limiting threaded rod 330d to contract, thereby contacting the limit of the eccentric weight 320c. At this time, the eccentric weight 320c begins to swing, driving the bevel gear group 320a to rotate and then driving the reciprocating screw to rotate. When the reciprocating screw rotates, it drives the probe module 310 to move down and up once, completing the test of the circuit board. Example 4

[0065] On the basis of Example 3, the blanking and resetting mechanism 400 includes a mounting base 410 located on the top surface of the platform 100 and having a rotating column 410a inside, a flip plate 420 fixedly sleeved on the rotating column 410a and having a suction cup 420a on one side, and a transmission assembly 430 that is transmission-connected to the probe module 310 at one end and transmission-connected to the rotating column 410a at the other end. The mounting base 410 is used to facilitate the installation of the flip plate 420, the rotating column 410a is used to fix the flip plate 420, and the flip plate 420 is used to drive the suction cup 420a to suck away the circuit board after the test is completed when it rotates. At the same time, when flipping, the dust attached to the surface of the circuit board is blown away by driving the rapid flow of air, thereby facilitating subsequent use. The transmission assembly 430 is used to drive the rotating column 410a to rotate during operation;

[0066] The side wall of the flip plate 420 is provided with a trigger block 420b, which is used to trigger it to work after contacting the trigger switch 410b. The bottom of the inner wall of the mounting base 410 is provided with a trigger switch 410b, which is used to energize the first electromagnetic block 120, the second electromagnetic block 110b and the third electromagnetic block 410c after contacting the trigger block 420b. The top surface of the table 100 is provided with a first electromagnetic block 120 corresponding to the side wall of the moving block 210a, which is used to adsorb the two moving blocks 210a to return to their original position after energization. The side wall of the connecting frame 110a is provided with a second electromagnetic block 110b corresponding to the side wall of the eccentric weight 320c, which is used to adsorb the eccentric weight 320c to return to its original position after energization. One side of the inner wall of the mounting base 410 is provided with a third electromagnetic block 410c corresponding to the side wall of the flip plate 420, which is used to adsorb the flip plate 420 to return to its original position after rotation, and suck the tested circuit board sucked by the suction cup 420a off the surface of the table 100.

[0067] In this embodiment, one end of the rotating column 410a has a first transmission pulley 410a-1, which is used to drive the rotating column 410a to rotate when rotating;

[0068] The transmission assembly 430 includes a serrated plate 430a located on the side wall of the probe module 310, a fourth gear 430b installed on the side wall of the mounting frame 110 and meshing with the serrated plate 430a, and a second transmission pulley 430c connected to the fourth gear 430b and connected to the first transmission pulley 410a-1 through a belt. The serrated plate 430a is used to drive the fourth gear 430b to rotate when the probe module 310 moves upward, the fourth gear 430b is used to drive the second transmission pulley 430c to rotate when it rotates, and the second transmission pulley 430c is used to drive the first transmission pulley 410a-1 to rotate when it rotates.

[0069] In this embodiment, a connecting member is connected between the fourth gear 430b and the second transmission pulley 430c, and the connecting member includes a ratchet connecting seat with a ratchet groove on the side wall, and a ratchet located in the ratchet groove and having multiple elastic pawls on the side wall, which is used to prevent the second transmission pulley 430c from being driven to reverse when the probe module 310 descends, thereby causing the flap 420 to get stuck.

[0070] In this embodiment, the specific working process is as follows: when the probe module 310 completes the test and rises, the fourth gear 430b is driven to rotate by the serrated plate 430a, and when the fourth gear 430b rotates, it drives the second transmission pulley 430c to rotate, and when the second transmission pulley 430c rotates, it drives the first transmission pulley 410a-1 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating rod to rotate and driving the flip plate 420 to flip, and when the flip plate 420 flips, it drives the suction cup 420a to suck the circuit board after the test is completed. When the trigger block 420b contacts the trigger switch 410b, the first electromagnetic block 120, the second electromagnetic block 110b and the third electromagnetic block 410c are energized. At this time, the two moving blocks 210a, the eccentric weight 320c and the flip plate 420 return to their original positions, and the circuit board is sucked away by the suction cup 420a, so as to facilitate the continued testing of the subsequent circuit boards.

[0071] A circuit testing method, comprising the above circuit testing device, comprises the following specific steps:

[0072] S1. Place the circuit board to be tested on top of the platform 100, then drive the motor 220d-1 to work, indirectly driving the first threaded rod 220a to rotate. At this time, the second gear 220d-4 is engaged with the first gear 220c.

[0073] S2. As the two clamping blocks 210b come into contact with both sides of the circuit board, the two sides of the circuit board are squeezed, and at the same time, the first elastic member 210c is squeezed and deformed, and the connecting column 210b-1 is continuously inserted into the air groove 210a-1, and the air in the air groove 210a-1 is continuously blown into the second connecting cylinder 220d-5 through the first connecting port 210a-2, thereby indirectly pushing the second gear 220d-4 to move. When the first elastic member 210c reaches a certain deformation amount, the two sides of the circuit board are completely positioned and clamped. At this time, the second gear 220d-4 is separated from the first gear 220c, thereby completing the positioning and clamping of the circuit board and playing a role in overload protection for both sides of the circuit board;

[0074] S3. When the second gear 220d-4 is separated from the first gear 220c, the trigger member drives the gravity lifting assembly 320 to work, thereby driving the probe module 310 to complete the movement and lifting movement, completing the test of the circuit board. The gravity-driven test reduces the energy consumption of the device during operation.

[0075] S4. When the probe module 310 completes a test, the transmission component 430 drives the rotating column 410a to rotate, thereby driving the flip plate 420 to flip, and the suction cup 420a sucks the tested circuit board tightly. At this time, after the trigger switch 410b contacts the trigger block 420b, the first electromagnetic block 120, the second electromagnetic block 110b and the third electromagnetic block 410c are energized, and respectively drive the two clamping parts 210, the eccentric weight 320c and the flip plate 420 to return to their original positions, thereby completing the unloading and automatically resetting, so as to facilitate the continued testing of the next circuit board.
