[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0028] Please refer to the attached Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the BGA multi-site storage chip test socket in the embodiment of the utility model includes a test circuit board 1. The test circuit board 1 is configured to provide electrical connection to realize signal transmission between the chip and the test equipment, and at the same time provide fixation and support to ensure stable installation of the test socket.

[0029] A plurality of socket bodies 2 are provided on the upper end surface of the test circuit board 1. The socket bodies 2 include a base 21 and an upper cover 22. A hinge assembly 27 is connected between the rear ends of the base 21 and the upper cover 22. The hinge assembly 27 is used to rotatably connect the upper cover 22 with the base 21 so that the upper cover 22 can be opened and closed. A snap assembly 24 is connected between the front ends of the two. The snap assembly 24 is used to lock the upper cover 22 with the base 21. A chip mounting groove 28 is provided on the upper end surface of the base 21.

[0030] A mounting groove 25 is provided on the upper end surface of the upper cover 22, and a heat sink 23 is slidably arranged inside the mounting groove 25. Adjustment components 26 are arranged on both sides of the heat sink 23. A temperature control switch 29 is fixedly embedded in the middle of the heat sink 23. After the upper cover 22 is closed, the lower end surfaces of the heat sink 23 and the temperature control switch 29 are in contact with the chip installed in the chip mounting groove 28. The heat sink 23 is made of metal copper and has good thermal conductivity. A plurality of fins are arranged on the outer end, which has a large contact area with the air and a strong heat dissipation effect, and can efficiently conduct the heat generated during chip testing. The temperature control switch 29 is a normally closed switch, which is connected in series to the circuit of the electromagnet 247 and is in contact with the chip. If the chip temperature is too high, the temperature control switch 29 is disconnected, and the electromagnet 247 is powered off and extended.

[0031] The snap-on assembly 24 includes a first slot 241 and a second slot 242 respectively opened at the front end of the upper cover 22 and the base 21. The first slot 241 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 244 inside, and a card 243 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 244. The lower end of the card 243 is snap-connected to the upper edge of the second slot 242, and an electromagnet 247 is fixed inside the second slot 242.

[0032] The electromagnet 247 retracts when energized, and after the upper cover 22 is closed, the hook structure at the lower end of the card 243 engages with the second slot 242, thereby locking the upper cover 22 and the base 21, ensuring that the chip can be stably pressed into the chip mounting slot 28. After the electromagnet 247 is powered off and extended, the electromagnet 247 pushes the lower end of the card 243, thereby separating the lower end of the card 243 from the upper edge of the second slot 242, unlocking the upper cover 22, reminding the tester to terminate the test, and also facilitating the tester to quickly remove the chip to prevent the chip from being damaged by overheating and the performance of the test socket from being affected by excessive temperature.

[0033] The hinge assembly 27 includes a hinge shaft 271 and two symmetrically arranged hinge heads 272, the hinge shaft 271 is fixedly connected to the base 21, the lower end of the hinge head 272 is rotatably sleeved with the hinge shaft 271, and the upper end is fixedly connected to the upper cover 22, a second torsion spring 273 is sleeved at the middle part of the hinge shaft 271, and the two ends of the second torsion spring 273 are respectively fixedly connected to the two hinge heads 272, and the upper cover 22 is rotatably connected to the hinge shaft 271 through the hinge heads 272. The arranged second torsion spring 273 can hinder the closing of the upper cover 22 and the base 21 through elastic force. After the clamping assembly 24 is unlocked, the upper cover 22 can be quickly separated from the base 21 through the elastic force of the second torsion spring 273, and it is more convenient to open the upper cover 22.

[0034] The adjusting assembly 26 includes two adjusting grooves 261 with open inner sides, the adjusting grooves 261 are arranged on both sides of the mounting groove 25, the adjusting grooves 261 are slidably connected with a pressing plate 262, one end of the pressing plate 262 is fixedly connected to the heat sink 23, the adjusting assembly 26 also includes two hand-tightening studs 264, the two hand-tightening studs 264 extend into the two adjusting grooves 261 respectively and the lower ends abut against the pressing plate 262, two springs 263 are fixedly connected between the lower end surface of the pressing plate 262 and the adjusting groove 261, and the adjusting assembly 26 is provided with an adjusting heat sink 23. The heat sink 23 protrudes from the upper cover 22 to such an extent that the heat sink 23 and the temperature control switch 29 arranged inside the heat sink 23 can be in close contact with the chip. When adjusting, the two hand-tightening studs 264 are rotated, and the hand-tightening studs 264 press down the pressure plate 262, thereby driving the heat sink 23 connected to the pressure plate 262 to be pressed down, so that the heat sink 23 can be closely attached to the chip surface, thereby ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the heat sink 23 and the use effect of the temperature control switch 29, and the spring 263 is provided to provide elastic force to enable the heat sink 23 to be reset.

[0035] The lower end of the card 243 is fixedly connected with a push head 246, which is aligned with the protruding end of the electromagnet 247. The temperature control switch 29 is electrically connected to the electromagnet 247. After the temperature control switch 29 is disconnected, the electromagnet 247 is powered off and extended. The protruding end of the electromagnet 247 pushes the push head 246 outward, thereby separating the lower end of the card 243 from the upper edge of the second slot 242, so that the upper cover 22 is unlocked.

[0036] The outer end of the rotating shaft 244 is sleeved with the first torsion spring 245 , and the upper and lower ends of the first torsion spring 245 are respectively fixedly connected to the card 243 and the first notch 241 .

[0037] The lower end surface of the heat sink 23 protrudes from the lower end surface of the upper cover 22, and the lower end surface of the temperature control switch 29 is flush with the lower end surface of the heat sink 23. When the heat sink 23 contacts the chip surface, the temperature control switch 29 can also contact the chip.

[0038] Working principle: When in use, the chip is installed in the chip installation groove 28, and then the upper cover 22 is covered, and the lower end of the card 243 is engaged with the second notch 242, thereby locking the upper cover 22 and the base 21, and then the distance between the heat sink 23 and the chip is adjusted by rotating the hand-tightening stud 264 of the adjustment component 26, so that the heat sink 23 can fit tightly with the chip, and the heat sink 23 can efficiently conduct the heat generated during chip testing. The set temperature control switch 29 is a normally closed switch, which is connected in series to the circuit of the electromagnet 247 and contacts the chip. If the chip temperature is too high, the temperature control switch 29 is disconnected, and the electromagnet 247 is powered off and extended. After extending, the electromagnet 247 pushes the lower end of the card 243, so that the lower end of the card 243 is separated from the upper edge of the second notch 242, unlocking the upper cover 22, reminding the tester to terminate the test, and also facilitating the tester to quickly remove the chip to prevent the chip from being overheated and damaged.

[0039] The above is a detailed description of an embodiment of the utility model, but the content is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and cannot be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the utility model. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of application of the utility model should still fall within the scope of the patent coverage of the utility model.
