[0048] Figure 1FIG. 1 is an overall view of a test assembly according to a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. The test assembly comprises a product holding portion 3 and one or more pushing assemblies.
[0049] The product holding portion 3 is configured to hold the product 4 to be tested, and its shape preferably matches at least a portion of the shape of the product 4 to be tested, so as to firmly hold the product 4 to be tested. In the illustrated embodiment, the product holding portion 3 has a substantially rounded rectangular shape to accommodate Figure 4 The product under test 4 is shown.
[0050] The one or more pushing components are configured to be movable between an initial position and a pushing position relative to the product holding portion 3, wherein in the initial position, the pushing component does not apply force to the key of the product to be tested 4 located in the product holding portion 3, and is preferably separated from the key of the product to be tested 4 by a certain distance. In the pushing position, the pushing component can press down the key on the product to be tested 4 located in the product holding portion 3.
[0051] The setting of the product holding part and the push component can replace the traditional manual key test method, effectively reducing the problem of poor product key failure caused by employee operation errors, improving efficiency, and reducing the time and labor costs required for testing. At the same time, because the push component can achieve automatic and precise control, the key test performed by the test component has higher consistency, accuracy and stability.
[0052] In the illustrated embodiment, the test assembly has two push assemblies, namely a first push assembly 1 and a second push assembly 2, which are used to press and release the first push assembly 1 and the second push assembly 2, respectively. Figure 4 The first button 41 and the second button 42 are shown on the product to be tested 4. In an embodiment not shown, the test assembly may have only one push assembly, three push assemblies or more push assemblies to be suitable for different products or different test schemes.
[0053] Preferably, each pushing assembly is equipped with a power source to facilitate each pushing assembly to independently and accurately perform actions. In the illustrated embodiment, the first pushing assembly 1 and the second pushing assembly 2 are respectively connected to the first power source 5 and the second power source 6 to move between the initial position and the pushing position based on the power from the first power source 5 and the second power source 6. In an embodiment not shown, the operation of each pushing assembly can be controlled by only one power source.
[0054] The present application does not limit the type of power source, for example, it can be various types of motors, pneumatic, hydraulic or electric actuators, etc. The pushing component can be connected to the power source directly or through an intermediate transmission mechanism, so that it moves between the initial position and the pushing position under the drive of the power source.
[0055] Preferably, each power source may have a respective actuating rod, which can be extended forward and retracted backward relative to other parts of the power source, thereby driving the pushing assembly to move between the initial position and the pushing position.
[0056] Preferably, in the embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings, the power source is an electric cylinder. The electric cylinder has the characteristics of high precision, high efficiency and programmable control, which can ensure the accuracy and reliability of key testing. Through the precise control of the electric cylinder, the key operations of different users can be simulated to achieve various complex test scenarios. In addition, the electric cylinder also has the advantages of long life, low noise and easy maintenance, which provides guarantee for the stable operation of the test assembly.
[0057] Each push assembly may include a push rod for pressing and releasing the button of the product to be tested 4. The push rod is manufactured as a separate piece and can be directly or preferably indirectly connected to the actuator rod of the power source. The push rod can be manufactured separately and customized according to specific application scenarios and requirements to meet the button testing requirements of different devices and different working conditions. In the preferred embodiment shown in the figure, the push rod is connected to the power source through a flange.
[0058] Preferably, each push rod includes a protective cover mounted on the end for pressing the button of the product to be tested 4. The protective cover can be made of rubber material, silicone material, nylon or fabric material, composite material, etc. to ensure stable contact between the end of the push rod and the button, reduce friction and wear between the end of the push rod and the button, and extend the service life of the push rod.
[0059] Preferably, each driving assembly of the test assembly has the same structure, so as to reduce the number of parts and improve standardization. Figure 2 and 3 The structure of the propulsion component and its connection with the power source are introduced. Figure 2 FIG. 2 shows an exploded view of a first power source 5 and a first pushing assembly 1 of a test assembly according to a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Figure 3 The figure shows the assembled view of the first power source 5 and the first propulsion assembly 1. The second propulsion assembly 2 and the additional propulsion assembly (if any) may have the same structure as the first propulsion assembly 1 (but may be arranged in a mirror image).
[0060] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the first push rod 11 of the first pushing assembly 1 is fixed to the first actuator rod 51 of the first power source 5 through the first flange 12 .
[0061] Preferably, the first push rod 11 is a rod-shaped structure with a cylindrical cross-section. More preferably, the push rod has a main body portion 112 and a thickened portion 111 for pressing and releasing the button of the product to be tested 4. The thickened portion 111 has a larger cross-sectional area than the main body portion 112 to increase the contact surface with the button, reduce the pressure on the button during the pressing process, avoid unnecessary damage to the button, and also enhance the durability and stability of the push rod.
[0062] The structure of the flange is not limited as long as it can fix the push rod to the actuator rod of the power source.
[0063] Preferably, the structure of the flange is configured so that the central axis X1 of the first push rod 11 can be staggered with the central axis X2 of the first actuator rod 51 of the first power source 5, so that the end of the push rod can be located at a position aligned with the button of the product 4 to be tested.
[0064] like Figure 2 As shown, the first flange 12 preferably includes a first portion 121 extending along the length direction of the first push rod 11 and a second portion 122 arranged transversely to the length direction of the first push rod 11 from the first portion 121, the first portion 121 is used to fix the first push rod 11, and the second portion 122 is used to connect to the first power source 5.
[0065] The first portion 121 may be provided with a through hole extending along the length direction of the first push rod 11 , and the bolts 126 126 pass through the through hole and are threadedly fixed to the end of the push rod.
[0066] The second portion 122 includes an upper portion 123 and a lower portion 124 spaced apart from each other, wherein the upper portion 123 and the lower portion 124 may be in the form of a lug extending laterally from the first portion 121. The end of the first actuator rod 51 of the first power source 5 is disposed between the upper portion 123 and the lower portion 124. Preferably, the upper portion 123, the lower portion 124 and the first actuator rod 51 are provided with through holes, and the fastener 125 may extend through the through holes of the upper portion 123, the lower portion 124 and the first actuator rod 51 to fix the first actuator rod 51 to the upper portion 123 and the lower portion 124.
[0067] Through the above structure of the flange, the push rod and the power source can be fixed with a simple structure, and the central axis of the push rod and the central axis of the actuator rod of the power source can be offset.
[0068] Similarly, the second push rod 21 of the second pushing assembly 2 can be fixed to the second actuator rod of the second power source 6 via a second flange. Preferably, the second flange has the same structure as the first flange 12 and is arranged in mirror symmetry.
[0069] exist Figure 1 In the preferred embodiment shown, the central axis of the first push rod 11 is staggered with the central axis of the first actuator rod 51 of the first power source 5, and the central axis of the second push rod 21 is staggered with the central axis of the second actuator rod of the second power source 6, and the directions of the staggering are different, so that the distance between the central axis of the first push rod 11 and the central axis of the second push rod 21 is smaller than the distance between the central axis of the first actuator rod 51 and the central axis of the second actuator rod. In other embodiments not shown, only one of the first push rod 11 and the second push rod 21 can be staggered. Through such a staggered design, a reasonable arrangement of the test assembly is provided, that is, the first power source 5 and the second power source 6 can be arranged side by side, and the first push rod 11 and the second push rod 21 can be respectively aligned with two compactly arranged buttons of the product 4 to be tested.
[0070] The test assembly of the utility model may also include a microphone, a receiver and a judgment module. The microphone is configured to pick up the sound from the product to be tested 4. During the test, when the push rod presses the key of the product to be tested 4, if the key is effectively pressed, it is usually accompanied by sound feedback, such as the sound output, disappearance, volume change, etc. The microphone can capture these sounds or sound changes and convert them into electrical signals. The receiver is configured to receive the sound signal from the microphone, and amplify and play these sound signals. The judgment module determines whether the key of the product to be tested 4 is effectively pressed based on the sound signal from the receiver. The judgment module can, for example, judge the response of the key by analyzing the frequency, amplitude, duration and other characteristics of the sound signal. If the sound signal meets the preset threshold or mode, the judgment module will output a signal indicating that the key is effectively pressed; otherwise, the judgment module will output another signal indicating that the key is not effectively pressed or there is an abnormality. Such a test assembly can automatically and accurately detect the key function of the product to be tested 4 without manual intervention, and improve the test efficiency and test yield.
[0071] The test assembly may further include a control unit configured to provide voltage to the power source to control activation and operation thereof.
[0072] An exemplary operation of the test assembly of the illustrated embodiment is as follows. The operator first places the product 4 to be tested in the product holding portion 3, and then starts the special test software. Once the test program enters the key function detection stage, the control unit can respond quickly and send, for example, a +12V voltage to the first electric cylinder and / or the second electric cylinder. After receiving the voltage signal, the first electric cylinder and / or the second electric cylinder drives the corresponding push rod to move forward until the end of the push rod presses the corresponding key of the product until the key test process is automatically completed. After the key test is completed, the control unit can issue an instruction again, sending, for example, a -12V voltage to the first electric cylinder and / or the second electric cylinder. The first electric cylinder and / or the second electric cylinder immediately responds and controls the corresponding push rod to retreat to the initial position to prepare for the next test. After the entire test process is completed, the test software will automatically read and summarize all test results, and, for example, determine whether the product 4 to be tested is qualified based on these results.
[0073] The exemplary implementation scheme of the present disclosure is described in detail above with reference to the preferred embodiments. However, it can be understood by those skilled in the art that, without departing from the concept of the present disclosure, various modifications and variations can be made to the above-mentioned specific embodiments, and various technical features and structures proposed in the present disclosure can be combined in various ways without exceeding the protection scope of the present disclosure, which is determined by the attached claims.
