[0024] Example
[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a clamping mechanism for a chip aging test socket comprises a chip connection seat 1, a plurality of neatly arranged ball-clamping hole assemblies 3 are provided at the center of the chip connection seat 1, a metal probe 2 is inserted in the ball-clamping hole assembly 3, a left clamping piece 21 and a right clamping piece 22 are provided at the upper part of the metal probe 2, the left clamping piece 21 and the right clamping piece 22 make the metal probe 2 present a "Y"-shaped structure, a chip placement plate 4 for chip placement is connected at the center of the chip connection seat 1, contact holes 5 corresponding to the ball-clamping hole assemblies 3 are provided on the chip placement plate 4, and the top end of the metal probe 2 passes through the ball-clamping hole assembly 3 and extends into the contact hole 5 and contacts with the welding point of the product;
[0026] The ball clamping hole assembly 3 includes a ball clamping hole body 31, and the ball clamping hole body 31 is opened on the chip connection seat 1. A support guide column 32 is connected to the ball clamping hole body 31. A through hole for the left clamping plate 21 and the right clamping plate 22 to pass through is provided between the support guide column 32 and the ball clamping hole body 31. The support guide column 32 is located in the middle of the left clamping plate 21 and the right clamping plate 22.
[0027] In the present invention, a card slot is provided on the chip connection seat 1, and the chip placement plate 4 is card-connected to the card slot.
[0028] The left clamping piece 21 and the right clamping piece 22 in the present invention are elastic clamping pieces, and the top ends of the left clamping piece 21 and the right clamping piece 22 are connected with a clamping head 23 for contacting with the welding point, and the clamping piece of the clamping head 23 is integrally formed.
[0029] The diameter of the contact hole 5 in the present invention is larger than the diameter of the ball clamping hole body 31, so as to ensure that the left clamping piece 21 and the right clamping piece 22 have movable space in the contact hole.
[0030] The working principle of the utility model is as follows:
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, during specific operation, the product is placed on the chip placement board, and the welding points of the product (chip) correspond to the contact holes. At this time, the left clamping piece and the right clamping piece of the metal probe will hold the welding points on the left and right sides, thereby ensuring contact with the product and ensuring subsequent detection.
[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, if the product is to be removed, just press the chip connector downwards. At the same time, the chip connector is connected to the base, and there is a movable distance between the chip connector and the base through a spring. When the chip connector is pressed down, the support guide column will move downward together, forcing the left clamping piece and the right clamping piece to be spread apart, so that the clamping head is separated from the welding point, ensuring that the welding point of the product will not be scratched, while also ensuring the stability of the contact.
[0033] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, further definition and explanation thereof is not required in subsequent drawings.
[0034] In the description of this application, it should be noted that the terms "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, or the positions or positional relationships in which the product of the application is usually placed when in use. They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on this application. In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0035] In addition, the terms "horizontal", "vertical" and the like do not mean that the components are required to be absolutely horizontal or vertical, but can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" only means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical", and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.
[0036] In the description of this application, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. It should be pointed out that a person skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the technical principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the protection scope of the present invention.
