For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0023] Example 1: Reference Figure 1-3A probe detection mechanism of a wafer testing device shown in the figure includes a mounting base 1, on which are arranged a plurality of probes 2 for wafer detection, and on which is arranged a position adjustment unit 3 for adjusting the positions of the plurality of probes 2, the position adjustment unit 3 includes a plurality of plug shafts 4 plugged into the mounting base 1, one end of the plug shaft 4 is fixedly connected with a connecting rod 5, the probe 2 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 5, and the other end of the plug shaft 4 is provided with a driving unit for driving the plug shaft 4 to move, when in use, the plug shaft 4 is pushed to move by the driving unit, thereby driving the probe 2 on the connecting rod 5 to move, thereby realizing synchronous pushing of the plurality of probes 2 to move at the same time, achieving the purpose of multi-probe 2 detection, improving detection efficiency, and having high practicality.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the driving unit includes a guide block 7 slidably connected to the mounting seat 1, and a plurality of first guide grooves 8 are opened on the guide block 7. The end of the plug shaft 4 is rotatably connected to the pulley 6, and the pulley 6 is slidably connected to the guide block 7. A spring 9 is sleeved on the plug shaft 4, one end of the spring 9 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 5, and the other end of the spring 9 is fixedly connected to the mounting seat 1. When in use, the pulley 6 slides in the first guide groove 8 by driving the guide block 7 to rise and fall. The guide block 7 is an inverted conical structure, and then as the guide block 7 descends, the plug shaft 4 is pushed to move, and then the probe 2 on the connecting rod 5 is pushed to move, so that the multiple probes 2 are synchronously moved away. At this time, the spring 9 is stretched by force, and when the guide block 7 rises, the probes 2 are pulled closer to each other by the spring 9. In this way, the purpose of synchronously driving the multiple probes 2 to adjust their positions is achieved, which is convenient for detecting multiple grains on the wafer, improves the detection efficiency, and has high practicality.

[0025] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a lifting control unit for driving the guide block 7 to lift and slide is provided on the mounting seat 1, and the lifting control unit includes a screw 11 fixedly connected to the top of the guide block 7, a cover plate 10 is fixedly connected to the mounting seat 1, a through hole is opened on the cover plate 10, and the screw 11 is inserted into the through hole, a worm gear 13 is rotatably connected to the cover plate 10, and the worm gear 13 is threadedly connected to the screw 11, a worm 14 is rotatably connected to the cover plate 10, and the worm 14 is meshed with the worm gear 13, a pair of bearing seats are fixedly connected to the cover plate 10, and the two ends of the worm 14 are rotatably connected to a pair of bearing seats, respectively, a motor 15 is installed on the cover plate 10, and the output end of the motor 15 is fixedly connected to the worm 14, second guide grooves 12 are opened on both sides of the screw 11, a protrusion is fixedly connected in the through hole, and the protrusion is slidably connected to the second guide groove 12.

[0026] When it is necessary to drive the guide block 7 to rise or fall, first start the motor 15 to drive the worm 14 to rotate, and then drive the worm wheel 13 to rotate through the worm 14. Under the guidance of the protrusion and the second guide groove 12, the screw 11 is driven to rise or fall, and then the guide block 7 is driven to rise or fall. Similarly, multiple probes 2 are driven to adjust their positions synchronously. By setting the structure of the worm wheel 13 and the worm 14, the adjustment speed is reduced, and then the position of the probe 2 can be adjusted more accurately, which is highly practical.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the top end of the screw rod 11 is threadedly connected with an anti-drop cap 16, and the outer diameter of the anti-drop cap 16 is larger than the diameter of the through hole. By setting the anti-drop cap 16, the screw rod 11 is prevented from falling off during the lifting and lowering process of the screw rod 11. At the same time, the anti-drop cap 16 is detachable, which is convenient for disassembly and maintenance, and is highly practical.
