Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automated equipment, and particularly to a watch testing device. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous evolution and booming development of the information technology field, the overall social economic level has been significantly improved, the material living conditions of the people have been gradually improved, and the living standards have shown a good trend of steady improvement. Against this background, people's pursuit of the quality of life has become more intense, and the criteria for judging the quality of life have become increasingly strict. People not only pay attention to the material enjoyment in daily life, but also pay unprecedented attention to their own health conditions and the performance experience of the electronic products they use.

[0003] As an innovative wearable intelligent device, the smart watch ingeniously combines the classic features of traditional watches with cutting-edge intelligent technologies. It not only retains the basic function of accurately displaying time of traditional watches, but also expands a variety of intelligent functions on this basis. These functions cover many aspects of daily life, such as convenient information reminders and personalized schedule management; in the field of health management, it can monitor key health indicators such as heart rate and sleep quality in real time, and provide professional health advice for users; in terms of communication, it supports functions such as fast message sending and receiving, voice calls, etc., greatly improving the communication efficiency and convenience of users in daily life.

[0004] Currently, the mainstream smart watch products on the market usually have an operating component, the crown, on the side. By rotating the crown, users can flexibly control and conveniently operate various functions of the smart watch, such as menu navigation, interface switching, function adjustment, etc. Before the smart watch is officially put on the market for sale, in order to ensure the product quality and performance stability, it is necessary to strictly detect the function of the crown. Specifically, the tester needs to rotate the crown according to the established process, and at the same time, with the help of professional detection equipment, monitor in real time and accurately the internal signal changes of the smart watch caused by the rotation of the crown. By deeply analyzing these signal data, it is judged whether the function of the crown is in a normal working state and whether there are any abnormal conditions, so as to ensure the reliability and stability of the smart watch during user use.

[0005] However, at the current stage, in the crown function test link, the operation mainly relies on manually twisting the crown. This traditional manual operation mode has many drawbacks. On the one hand, manual operation requires a large amount of human resources. With the increasing scale of smartwatch production, the labor cost is constantly rising, bringing a heavy economic burden to the enterprise. On the other hand, the manual test efficiency is low. Affected by factors such as individual differences and fatigue of the operators, the accuracy and consistency of the test results are difficult to be effectively guaranteed, and the test speed cannot meet the needs of large-scale production, seriously restricting the production efficiency and product quality improvement of smartwatches.

[0006] Therefore, in order to effectively solve the many problems existing in the current crown function test process, improve the test efficiency, reduce the labor cost, and ensure the product quality, it is necessary to comprehensively and deeply improve and innovate the existing smartwatch crown function test technology.

[0078] Please refer to Figure 1-4 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a watch testing device. This device has a delicate structure and complete functions, and is specifically composed of core components such as a base 1, a carrier 2, a testing mechanism 3, and a rotating mechanism 4. Among them,

[0079] The testing mechanism 3 and the rotating mechanism 4, as core functional units, are respectively stably installed on the base 1 to ensure the stability and reliability of the overall device;

[0080] The carrier 2 is arranged on the testing mechanism 3 in a movable manner, and a bearing groove that precisely matches the outer dimension of the watch is carefully designed inside it. In particular, the bottom of this bearing groove is designed with a hollow structure, providing convenient conditions for subsequent testing operations;

[0081] The rotating mechanism 4, as the power source for the crown rotation, has a clever design and strong power, and can precisely drive the crown of the watch to rotate, providing the necessary physical conditions for the function testing of the crown;

[0082] The test mechanism 3 is responsible for establishing an electrical connection with the watch head of the watch placed in the bearing slot, and through collaborative work with the rotation mechanism 4, it realizes a comprehensive and accurate test of the functions of the crown. Specifically, under the drive of the rotation mechanism 4, the crown performs a rotation action, and the test mechanism 3 monitors and records the functional parameters of the crown in real time, thereby completing a comprehensive evaluation of the functions of the crown.

[0083] It should be particularly noted that the watch testing device provided by the embodiment of the present invention realizes the automatic operation of the crown function test by innovatively designing the rotation mechanism 4 to drive the rotation of the crown and combining the precise cooperation of the test mechanism 3 and the carrier 2. This innovative design not only completely abandons the cumbersome and inefficient traditional manual twisting of the crown, but also achieves a qualitative leap in the test efficiency. It can quickly and accurately complete the crown function detection tasks of a large number of smart watches, fully meet the actual needs of mass production, and thus effectively improve the overall production efficiency of smart watches.

[0084] At the same time, since the test process is completely free from the bondage of manual operation, it fundamentally eliminates the adverse effects on the accuracy and consistency of the test results caused by factors such as individual differences and fatigue levels of the operators. This change not only ensures the stability and reliability of the test results, but also lays a solid foundation for improving product quality and enhancing the competitiveness of products in the market.

[0085] In addition, the wide application of the automatic test method also brings significant economic benefits. It greatly reduces the labor input, reduces the labor cost expenditure of the enterprise in the crown function test link, and creates considerable economic value for the enterprise. At the same time, this innovative design also promotes the technological progress and development of the smart watch industry, injecting new vitality into the continuous prosperity of the industry.

[0086] Please refer to Figure 5-7 , in an implementation manner of this embodiment, the test mechanism 3 is composed of two core parts: a circuit board 301 and a probe module 302. The two work together to jointly realize the precise test of the functions of the smart watch crown.

[0087] Specifically, the circuit board 301, as the basic support and signal transmission unit of the test mechanism 3, is firmly installed on the base 1, providing a stable electrical environment and signal transmission path for the entire test process.

[0088] The probe module 302, as a key component for realizing the electrical connection between the watch head and the test mechanism 3, is ingeniously arranged on the circuit board 301, and its position is precisely corresponding to the directly below of the carrying slot. The probe module 302 is connected to the circuit board 301 through a precise electrical connection method, ensuring the accuracy and stability of signal transmission. During the actual test process, the probe module 302 can skillfully pass through the hollow bottom of the carrying slot and achieve precise docking with the watch head placed in the carrying slot, thereby establishing a stable electrical connection channel.

[0089] Through this design, the test mechanism 3 can, with the cooperation of the rotating mechanism 4, achieve a comprehensive and efficient test of the crown function. Specifically, when the rotating mechanism 4 drives the crown to rotate, the probe module 302 can collect the function parameters of the crown in real time and accurately, and transmit these parameters to the subsequent analysis and processing unit through the circuit board 301, thereby completing a comprehensive evaluation of the crown function.

[0090] In summary, the test mechanism 3 in this embodiment realizes the automation and precision of the crown function test through the precise cooperation of the circuit board 301 and the probe module 302, which not only improves the test efficiency and accuracy, but also provides a strong guarantee for the mass production and quality control of smart watches.

[0091] Please refer to Figure 8-9 , in an implementation manner of this embodiment, the probe module 302, as a key component in the test mechanism 3, has a delicate structure design and complete functions, and is mainly composed of four core components: a probe base 3021, a first probe 3022, a conductive sheet 3023, and a conductive cloth 3024. The following will detail the structural layout and function realization of each component:

[0092] The conductive sheet 3023, as the core conductive element in the probe module 302, is firmly installed on the probe base 3021, providing a solid foundation for subsequent electrical connections.

[0093] The first probe 3022, as a bridge for signal transmission, has a unique design and excellent performance. Specifically, the first probe 3022 penetrates through the probe base 3021 in a precise threading manner, with one end being firmly electrically connected to the circuit board 301, ensuring the stability and reliability of signal transmission; while the other end is in close contact with the conductive sheet 3023, forming a complete electrical connection loop.

[0094] The conductive cloth 3024, as a flexible medium for realizing electrical connection between the probe module 302 and the meter head, is ingeniously laid on the conductive sheet 3023. The conductive cloth 3024 not only has excellent electrical conductivity, but also can ensure a stable and reliable electrical connection with the conductive sheet 3023 and the meter head. In practical applications, when the meter head is placed in the bearing groove, the conductive cloth 3024 can closely adhere to the corresponding position of the meter head, so as to achieve precise electrical docking with the meter head.

[0095] Through the precise cooperation and coordinated work of the above components, the probe module 302 plays a crucial role in the test mechanism 3. Specifically, during the test, the first probe 3022 is responsible for transmitting the test signal on the circuit board 301 to the conductive sheet 3023; and the conductive sheet 3023 further transmits the test signal to the meter head through the conductive cloth 3024, so as to achieve a comprehensive and accurate test of the crown function.

[0096] It can be understood that the conductive cloth 3024 can ensure the formation of a stable contact resistance between the conductive sheet 3023 and the meter head. Due to the good electrical conductivity and flexibility of the conductive cloth 3024, it can adapt to irregular surfaces, ensure good contact between the conductive sheet 3023 and the back shell, and reduce the fluctuation of the contact resistance.

[0097] Moreover, the conductive cloth 3024 can also play a certain buffering and protecting role, preventing scratches or damages that may be caused when the conductive sheet 3023 directly contacts the meter head.

[0098] In addition, the conductive cloth 3024 itself has certain electromagnetic shielding performance, which can reduce the influence of external electromagnetic interference on the crown function test.

[0099] To sum up, the probe module 302 in this embodiment realizes the high-efficiency, precision and stability of the crown function test through the precise cooperation and coordinated work of the four core components of the probe base 3021, the first probe 3022, the conductive sheet 3023 and the conductive cloth 3024.

[0100] Please refer to again Figure 5-7 , in a specific implementation manner provided in this embodiment, in order to further optimize the structural layout and function realization of the test mechanism 3, a key component of the alignment block 303 is particularly added. The alignment block 303 plays a crucial role in the test mechanism 3. Its structural design is delicate and its functions are complete, providing a strong guarantee for the accuracy and stability of the test process.

[0101] Specifically, the alignment block 303 is ingeniously disposed above the circuit board 301 to form a protective covering layer, which can not only effectively prevent external impurities from contaminating or damaging the circuit board 301, but also enhance the overall structural strength of the testing mechanism 3 to a certain extent. At the same time, to ensure that the probe module 302 can function properly, the alignment block 303 is specially provided with an avoidance opening at the position corresponding to the probe module 302, so that the probe module 302 can smoothly pass through the alignment block 303 and achieve precise docking with the meter head.

[0102] In addition, to ensure the alignment accuracy and stability between the carrier 2 and the testing mechanism 3, the alignment block 303 is also specially provided with alignment guide pins 304. These alignment guide pins 304 are distributed on the alignment block 303 in an accurate layout manner, providing a clear guiding function for the installation and positioning of the carrier 2.

[0103] Correspondingly, the carrier 2 has also been specifically designed and improved, and alignment guide holes matching the alignment guide pins 304 are specially added. In practical applications, when the carrier 2 is placed on the testing mechanism 3, the alignment guide pins 304 can accurately insert into the alignment guide holes, thereby realizing precise alignment and stable connection between the carrier 2 and the testing mechanism 3.

[0104] Through the collaborative design of the above alignment block 303 and the carrier 2, the testing mechanism 3 can achieve higher alignment accuracy and stability during the testing process. This not only helps to improve the accuracy and reliability of the test results, but also ensures the smooth progress of the testing process, providing more powerful technical support for the mass production and quality control of smart watches.

[0105] In summary, the testing mechanism 3 in this embodiment realizes the precision and stabilization of the testing process by adding the key component of the alignment block 303 and cooperating with the specific design improvement of the carrier 2.

[0106] Please refer to again Figure 5-7 In an implementation manner of this embodiment, to further enhance the stability and convenience of the connection between the testing mechanism 3 and the carrier 2, an innovative design of a first magnetic body 305 is specially added to the alignment block 303. The first magnetic body 305 is ingeniously integrated at a specific position of the alignment block 303, and through its strong magnetic attraction, it provides strong support for the rapid and accurate docking between the carrier 2 and the alignment block 303.

[0107] Accordingly, in order to form a perfect fit with the first magnetic body 305, a second magnetic body is also specially provided on the vehicle 2. The second magnetic body is magnetically matched with the first magnetic body 305 and can generate a strong suction force, so as to ensure that when the vehicle 2 is placed on the test mechanism 3, it can quickly and stably achieve suction fixation with the alignment block 303.

[0108] In practical applications, when an operator needs to install the vehicle 2 onto the test mechanism 3, they only need to roughly align the vehicle 2 with the position of the alignment block 303. Due to the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic body 305 and the second magnetic body, the vehicle 2 will be automatically attracted to the correct position and achieve firm suction fixation. This design not only greatly simplifies the installation process of the vehicle 2, improves work efficiency, but also ensures the tightness and stability of the connection between the vehicle 2 and the test mechanism 3, providing a reliable guarantee for subsequent test work.

[0109] In addition, this magnetic suction fixation method also has the advantage of being easy to disassemble. When the test work is completed, the operator only needs to apply an appropriate external force to easily overcome the magnetic suction force and remove the vehicle 2 from the test mechanism 3. This design makes the replacement and maintenance of the vehicle 2 more convenient and efficient, further improving the overall efficiency and flexibility of the test work.

[0110] In summary, in the test mechanism 3 of this embodiment, by adding a first magnetic body 305 on the alignment block 303 and cooperating with the design of the second magnetic body on the vehicle 2, a fast and stable magnetic suction fixation connection between the vehicle 2 and the test mechanism 3 is achieved.

[0111] Please refer again to Figure 5-7 , in a specific implementation manner provided in this embodiment, in order to further improve the data transmission ability and intelligent level of the test mechanism 3, a key component, the transmission interface 306, is specially added. As a bridge for data interaction between the test mechanism 3 and external devices, the transmission interface 306 is cleverly integrated on the circuit board 301 and is stably electrically connected to it.

[0112] Specifically, the transmission interface 306 is designed as a standardized data transmission port, which integrates advanced signal conversion and transmission technologies inside, and can ensure that after the test mechanism 3 collects watch function data, it can quickly and accurately transmit this data to external devices. These external devices can be computers, data analyzers, cloud servers, etc., which can receive and process the data from the test mechanism 3 and provide strong support for subsequent analysis, evaluation, and decision-making.

[0113] In practical applications, when the testing mechanism 3 completes a comprehensive test of the watch functions, the collected data will first be preliminarily processed and integrated through the circuit board 301. Subsequently, these data will be transmitted to the transmission interface 306, which will convert them into a format and signal suitable for reception by external devices. Finally, these data will be accurately and stably transmitted to external devices through the transmission interface 306, providing a reliable basis for subsequent in-depth analysis and applications.

[0114] Through the innovative design of adding the transmission interface 306, the testing mechanism 3 not only realizes efficient and stable data transmission with external devices, but also improves its intelligence level and application flexibility. This design enables the testing mechanism 3 to better meet the requirements of modern smartwatch production and quality control, providing a strong guarantee for the large-scale production and quality improvement of smartwatches.

[0115] In summary, the testing mechanism 3 in this embodiment realizes efficient data interaction and intelligent management with external devices by adding the key component of the transmission interface 306. This innovative design not only improves the efficiency and accuracy of the testing work, but also provides a more comprehensive and efficient solution for the research, production and quality control of smartwatches.

[0116] Please refer to Figure 10-13 , in a specific implementation manner provided in this embodiment, the rotating mechanism 4, as the core device for realizing the automatic rotation test of the crown, has a delicate structure design and complete functions, and is mainly composed of key components such as a driving motor 401, a driving gear 402, a driven gear 403, a rotating rod 404, and a sleeve 405. The following will elaborate in detail on the structural layout, function realization, and collaborative working principle of each component:

[0117] The sleeve 405, as a key component in the rotating mechanism 4 that directly contacts the crown and drives its rotation, is precisely arranged at one end of the rotating rod 404. The design of this sleeve 405 fully considers the shape, size, and material characteristics of the crown to ensure that it can firmly and non-destructively hold the crown, providing reliable support for subsequent rotation tests.

[0118] The driving gear 402, as a bridge for power transmission between the driving motor 401 and the rotating rod 404, is precisely sleeved on the output shaft of the driving motor 401. The tooth profile, module, and other parameters of this driving gear 402 have been carefully designed and calculated to ensure the meshing accuracy and transmission efficiency with the subsequent driven gear 403.

[0119] The driven gear 403, as the power receiving end of the rotating rod 404, is precisely sleeved on the rotating rod 404. A perfect meshing relationship is formed between the driven gear 403 and the driving gear 402, enabling the power output by the driving motor 401 to be accurately and efficiently transmitted to the rotating rod 404.

[0120] During the power transmission process, the driving gear 402 and the driven gear 403 achieve power transmission through the precise meshing between teeth. When the driving motor 401 starts, its output shaft drives the driving gear 402 to rotate, and then drives the driven gear 403 to rotate through the meshing action. Since the driven gear 403 is tightly connected to the rotating rod 404, the rotating rod 404 also rotates accordingly. Finally, the rotational movement of the rotating rod 404 is transmitted to the sleeve 405, causing the sleeve 405 to drive the crown to rotate precisely.

[0121] Through the precise cooperation and coordinated operation of the above components, the rotating mechanism 4 can achieve the efficient and stable rotation of the crown during the test. This not only helps to improve the accuracy and reliability of the test results, but also ensures the automation and intelligent level of the test process, providing strong technical support for the large-scale production and quality control of smart watches.

[0122] In summary, the rotating mechanism 4 in this embodiment realizes the automation and precision of the crown rotation test through the precise cooperation and coordinated operation of key components such as the driving motor 401, the driving gear 402, the driven gear 403, the rotating rod 404, and the sleeve 405.

[0123] Please refer to Figure 10-13 , in a specific implementation manner provided in this embodiment, on the basis of the original precise design, the rotating mechanism 4 further adds an innovative component, the elastic rubber ring 406, to optimize its functionality and adaptability. The following will elaborate in detail on the structural characteristics, function realization, and synergistic effect of the elastic rubber ring 406 in the rotating mechanism 4:

[0124] The elastic rubber ring 406, as a key component for realizing the flexible connection between the sleeve 405 and the rotating rod 404 in the rotating mechanism 4, is cleverly arranged between the sleeve 405 and the rotating rod 404. The elastic rubber ring 406 is made of a high-elasticity and high-wear-resistant rubber material, and has excellent compression and rebound performance and anti-aging characteristics, and can maintain stable physical and mechanical properties during long-term use.

[0125] Specifically, the sleeve 405 is stably and flexibly connected to the rotating rod 404 through the elastic rubber ring 406. The outer diameter of the elastic rubber ring 406 matches the inner diameter of the sleeve 405, and the inner diameter is adapted to the outer diameter of the rotating rod 404, and a tight connection is achieved through an interference fit. At the same time, the elastic characteristics of the elastic rubber ring 406 enable the sleeve 405 to generate a certain deformation when subjected to an external force, thereby absorbing impacts and vibrations and protecting the crown from damage.

[0126] More importantly, the design of the elastic rubber ring 406 endows the sleeve 405 with the characteristics of being detachable and replaceable. Since the crown sizes of smart watches of different models and brands vary, a rotating mechanism that can be flexibly adapted is required. By adding the elastic rubber ring 406, the connection method between the sleeve 405 and the rotating rod 404 changes from a rigid connection to a flexible connection, enabling the sleeve 405 to be easily disassembled and replaced with sleeves of different sizes to adapt to crowns of various sizes.

[0127] In practical applications, when it is necessary to test crowns of different sizes, the operator only needs to remove the original sleeve 405 from the rotating rod 404 and replace it with a sleeve that matches the target crown size. This process does not require large-scale disassembly and adjustment of the rotating mechanism 4, greatly improving the flexibility and efficiency of the testing work.

[0128] Through the addition and ingenious design of the above-mentioned elastic rubber ring 406, the rotating mechanism 4 not only maintains its original high-precision and high-reliability characteristics, but also further improves its adaptability and flexibility. The rotating mechanism 4 can quickly replace the sleeve according to different test requirements to achieve precise rotation testing of the crown, providing a more efficient and reliable solution for the mass production and quality control of smart watches.

[0129] In summary, the rotating mechanism 4 in this embodiment realizes the flexible connection and detachable replacement function between the sleeve 405 and the rotating rod 404 by adding the innovative component of the elastic rubber ring 406. This design not only optimizes the performance of the rotating mechanism 4, but also improves its application flexibility and testing efficiency.

[0130] Please refer again to Figure 10-13 , in a specific implementation manner provided in this embodiment, the rotating mechanism 4 is further optimized and expanded on the basis of the original structure, and two core components, namely a test probe 407 and a second probe 408, are particularly added to enhance its functional integration and testing accuracy. The following will elaborate in detail on the structural layout, function realization of these two newly added components, and their cooperation mechanism in the rotating mechanism 4.

[0131] The test probe 407, as a key component in the rotating mechanism 4 for achieving electrical connection and signal acquisition of the crown, is precisely assembled at one end of the rotating rod 404, and its position is accurately set within the internal space of the sleeve 405. The design of the test probe 407 fully considers the shape, size of the crown and the material characteristics of the contact surface, and adopts high-precision processing technology and surface treatment technology to ensure a stable and reliable electrical contact with the crown. At the same time, the internal circuit design of the test probe 407 has also been carefully optimized to achieve efficient and low-noise signal acquisition and transmission.

[0132] Specifically, when the rotating mechanism 4 drives the sleeve 405 to enclose the crown and drives it to rotate, the test probe 407 comes into close contact with the surface of the crown, forming an electrical connection. During this process, the test probe 407 can collect various electrical signals generated by the crown during rotation in real time, such as changes in parameters such as resistance, capacitance, and voltage, and transmit these signals to the test system through the subsequent circuit for analysis and processing.

[0133] The second probe 408, as a key bridge in the rotating mechanism 4 for achieving electrical connection between the test probe 407 and the circuit board 301, is stably and efficiently electrically connected to the test probe 407 through the precision wire inside the rotating rod 404 at one end, and is reliably docked with the circuit board 301 through the connector 409 at the other end. The design of the second probe 408 fully considers the stability of signal transmission and anti-interference ability, and adopts high-quality conductive materials and advanced connection technologies to ensure that the signal is not distorted or attenuated during transmission.

[0134] In practical applications, when the test probe 407 collects the electrical signals of the crown, these signals are first transmitted to the wire inside the rotating rod 404 through one end of the second probe 408, then transmitted to the other end of the second probe 408 through the wire, and finally transmitted to the circuit board 301 through the connector 409. After receiving the signal, the circuit board 301 amplifies, filters, digitizes, etc. the signal, and transmits the processed data to the test system for analysis and display.

[0135] Through the addition and ingenious design of the above test probe 407 and the second probe 408, the rotating mechanism 4 not only realizes the function of driving the rotation of the crown, but also integrates the functions of electrical connection and signal acquisition of the crown. This design greatly improves the functional integration and test accuracy of the rotating mechanism 4, enabling it to meet the dual requirements of crown rotation test and electrical performance test at the same time.

[0136] In summary, by adding two core components, namely the test probe 407 and the second probe 408, the rotation mechanism 4 in this embodiment realizes the integrated integration of the crown rotation test and the electrical performance test. This design not only optimizes the performance of the rotation mechanism 4, but also improves its application flexibility and test efficiency.

[0137] Please refer to Figure 10-13 again, and in combination with Figure 14 , in a specific implementation provided in this embodiment, on the basis of the original precise design, the rotation mechanism 4 further incorporates three innovative components, namely the conductive rod 410, the spring 411, and the pressure adjustment screw 412, to enhance its functional integration, test accuracy, and operation flexibility. The following will conduct a detailed and in-depth analysis of the structural layout, function realization, and their collaborative mechanism in the rotation mechanism 4 of these three newly added components.

[0138] A sliding cavity is carefully designed inside the rotating rod 404. This sliding cavity serves as the sliding track for the conductive rod 410, and its size and shape have been precisely calculated and processed to ensure that the conductive rod 410 can slide stably and smoothly within it. The conductive rod 410, as a key component for realizing electrical signal transmission and pressure adjustment in the rotation mechanism 4, is slidably arranged in the sliding cavity. The conductive rod 410 is made of a material with high conductivity and high strength, and its surface has been specially treated to reduce the friction coefficient and improve the sliding performance.

[0139] Specifically, the test probe 407, as the component in the rotation mechanism 4 that directly contacts the crown and collects electrical signals, is precisely assembled at one end of the conductive rod 410. When the conductive rod 410 slides in the sliding cavity, the test probe 407 moves accordingly to achieve contact and separation with the crown.

[0140] The pressure adjustment screw 412, as a key component for realizing the pressure adjustment of the test probe 407 in the rotation mechanism 4, is fixed in the sliding cavity at one end through a precise threaded connection method, and the other end extends to the outside of the rotating rod 404 for easy adjustment by the operator. The pressure adjustment screw 412 is in abutment with the other end of the conductive rod 410 through the spring 411. The spring 411, as a medium for pressure transmission and buffering, has its elastic coefficient and pre-tightening force carefully selected and adjusted to ensure stable and uniform pressure transmission during the pressure adjustment process.

[0141] In practical applications, when it is necessary to adjust the pressure when the test probe 407 contacts the crown, the operator only needs to rotate the pressure adjustment screw 412 to change the depth of its screwing into the sliding cavity. As the pressure adjustment screw 412 rotates, the compression amount of the spring 411 changes accordingly, thereby changing the pressure it transmits to the conductive rod 410. After the conductive rod 410 is subjected to pressure, its position in the sliding cavity is adjusted accordingly, driving the test probe 407 to move, and realizing precise adjustment of the contact pressure with the crown.

[0142] Through the addition and ingenious design of the above-mentioned conductive rod 410, spring 411 and pressure adjustment screw 412, the rotating mechanism 4 not only realizes the rotation driving function of the crown, but also integrates the functions of electrical signal transmission and pressure adjustment. This design greatly improves the functional integration and test accuracy of the rotating mechanism 4, enabling it to meet the diversified requirements of crown rotation test, electrical performance test and contact pressure adjustment at the same time.

[0143] In addition, the rotating mechanism 4 also has high operation flexibility and maintainability. The operator can adjust the contact pressure between the test probe 407 and the crown at any time according to the actual test requirements to obtain the best test effect. At the same time, when components such as the conductive rod 410, spring 411 or pressure adjustment screw 412 are worn or damaged, the operator can easily replace or repair them, thereby extending the service life of the rotating mechanism 4 and reducing the maintenance cost.

[0144] In summary, the rotating mechanism 4 in this embodiment realizes the integrated integration of crown rotation test, electrical performance test and contact pressure adjustment by adding three innovative components: the conductive rod 410, the spring 411 and the pressure adjustment screw 412.

[0145] Please refer to Figure 6 again. In a specific implementation manner provided in this embodiment, to further improve the automation degree and operation flexibility of the device, the device is particularly provided with a key component, the sliding module 5. The introduction of the sliding module 5 enables the rotating mechanism 4 to realize the sliding displacement relative to the base 1 through it, and then precisely control the relative position between the sleeve 405 and the crown, realizing the precise sleeving and releasing of the sleeve 405 on the crown. The following will conduct a detailed and in-depth analysis of the structural design, function realization and its cooperative mechanism in the device of the sliding module 5.

[0146] The sliding module 5 serves as the connection bridge between the rotating mechanism 4 and the base 1. Its design fully considers the motion stability, positioning accuracy, and operation convenience. The sliding module 5 mainly includes two core components: the slide rail 501 and the slider 502. Among them, the slide rail 501, as the basis for sliding guidance, is firmly fixed on the base 1. Its surface is precisely machined to ensure smooth sliding of the slider 502 on it. The layout direction of the slide rail 501 is consistent with the direction in which the rotating mechanism 4 needs to move, so as to achieve precise displacement of the rotating mechanism 4 in the horizontal or vertical direction.

[0147] The slider 502 is the key component in the sliding module 5 to realize the sliding of the rotating mechanism 4. It is firmly combined with the rotating mechanism 4 through bolts, welding, or other fixed connection methods. The bottom of the slider 502 is provided with a sliding groove matching the slide rail 501. The size and shape of this sliding groove are precisely calculated and machined to ensure that the slider 502 can closely fit on the slide rail 501 and achieve stable sliding along its direction. In addition, the material and surface treatment of the slider 502 are carefully selected and optimized to reduce the friction coefficient, improve the sliding efficiency and wear resistance.

[0148] In practical applications, when it is necessary to engage or release the crown, the operator or the automated control system can drive the slider 502 to slide along the slide rail 501 through a driving mechanism (such as a motor, a cylinder, etc., not shown in the figure). As the slider 502 moves, the rotating mechanism 4 moves accordingly, and then drives the sleeve 405 to approach or move away from the crown. When the sleeve 405 moves above the crown, the rotating mechanism 4 can drive the sleeve 405 to descend and engage the crown; when it is necessary to release the crown, the rotating mechanism 4 can drive the sleeve 405 to rise and move away from the crown.

[0149] Through the addition and ingenious design of the above-mentioned sliding module 5, the device not only realizes the sliding displacement function of the rotating mechanism 4 on the base 1, but also greatly improves the operation flexibility and automation level of the device. This design enables the device to quickly and accurately adjust the relative position between the sleeve 405 and the crown according to actual needs, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of crown testing.

[0150] In addition, the sliding module 5 also has high maintainability and expandability. When the slide rail 501 or the slider 502 is worn or damaged, the operator can easily replace or repair it, thereby extending the service life of the device and reducing the maintenance cost. At the same time, with the development of technology and the upgrading of requirements, the sliding module 5 can also achieve a higher level of automated control and intelligent management by adding components such as driving mechanisms and sensors.

[0151] In summary, by adding the key component of the sliding module 5, the device in this embodiment realizes the sliding displacement function of the rotating mechanism 4 on the base 1, thereby improving the operation flexibility and automation level of the device.

[0152] Although terms such as crown and rotating mechanism are used more frequently in this application, the possibility of using other terms is not excluded. These terms are only used to more conveniently describe and explain the essence of the present invention; interpreting them as any additional limitation is contrary to the spirit of the present invention.

[0153] A watch testing device provided by an embodiment of the present invention drives the crown to rotate through a rotating mechanism, and can cooperate with a testing mechanism and a carrier to realize the automated operation of the crown function test, avoiding the cumbersome process of manually twisting the crown in the traditional way, greatly improving the test efficiency, being able to quickly complete the crown function detection of a large number of smart watches, meeting the requirements of mass production, and thus effectively improving the overall production efficiency of smart watches. Moreover, since the testing process no longer relies on manual operation, the adverse effects caused by factors such as individual differences and fatigue levels of operators on the accuracy and consistency of the test results are eliminated, ensuring the stability and reliability of the test results, helping to improve product quality, and enhancing the competitiveness of the product in the market. In addition, the adoption of the automated testing method significantly reduces the labor input, reduces the labor cost of the enterprise in the crown function testing link, brings significant economic benefits to the enterprise, and promotes the technological progress and development of the smart watch industry.
