PCB board function tester is one of the important tools to ensure the quality and reliability of PCB boards, and is of great significance to the production and quality control of electronic products. The test probe of PCB board function tester is a metal needle used to contact and detect electronic components on PCB boards. Its material, structure, performance and service life will affect the accuracy and stability of the test. The material of the test probe is generally selected from metal materials with high conductivity, high hardness, high wear resistance and corrosion resistance. The test probe of PCB board function tester is one of the important tools for achieving accurate and efficient testing. However, general test probes are fixed on the probe base. Therefore, when a single test probe is damaged and replaced, the operation is more troublesome. Therefore, the entire test probe board needs to be replaced, resulting in a waste of resources. In addition, it is also troublesome to install and remove the existing test probe board from the tester, which greatly reduces the replacement efficiency of the test probe. For this reason, we propose a PCB board function tester that is easy to replace the test probe structure. Utility Model Content

The outer surface of the connecting column 12 is movably connected to the inner wall of the cylinder 11. The outer surface of the cylinder 11 is fixedly connected to two connecting plates 10. One end of the two connecting plates 10 is fixedly connected to two limiting rods 9. One end of the two limiting rods 9 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 8. The bottom end of the mounting plate 8 is fixedly connected with a fixed block 13 corresponding to the two limiting rods 9. The bottom end of the fixed block 13 is movably connected with two movable rods 15. A spring 17 is fixedly connected between the two movable rods 15. The top ends of the two movable rods 15 are threadedly connected with a threaded rod 16.

[0023] Furthermore, the four clamping plates 6 are all formed by fixedly connecting a conical tube and a circular ring, and the interiors of the four clamping plates 6 are all hollow, and the thinner end of the conical tube is fixedly connected to the clamping ring 5, and the thicker end of the conical tube and the circular ring are evenly divided into four parts;

[0024] Furthermore, circular holes are formed at the bottom ends of the four nuts 7 , and the bottom end of the clamping plate 6 is movably connected to the inside of the nuts 7 , and the diameter of the circular holes formed in the nuts 7 is larger than the diameter of the outer surface of the circular ring of the clamping plate 6 .
