[0039] The technical solution of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only part of the embodiments of the present utility model, not all of the embodiments.
[0040] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, Figure 1 The PCBA testing device of the first embodiment of the utility model, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the back side of the test substrate 100. The PCBA test device includes the test substrate 100, a storage component, a driving component and a light guide unit;
[0041] The test substrate 100 includes a test area 110 and an indication area; a plurality of probes are arranged in the test area 110, corresponding to a plurality of test points of the PCBA board to be tested;
[0042] A storage component is disposed above the test area 110. The storage component can be compressed and moved in a direction perpendicular to the test substrate 100. The storage component is used to place the PCBA board to be tested;
[0043] A driving component, used to move the placement component away from or close to the test substrate 100, so that multiple test points of the PCBA board to be tested are away from or in contact with multiple probes;
[0044] The light guide unit includes a plurality of light guide components 400, which are arranged one by one corresponding to the indicator lights on the back of the PCBA boards to be tested, and are used to guide the light of the indicator lights on the back of the PCBA boards to be tested to the indication area.
[0045] The PCBA board to be tested is placed above the storage component, and the storage component is arranged above the test area 110 of the test substrate 100. When the driving component drives the storage component downward to approach the test substrate 100, the PCBA board to be tested placed above the storage component contacts with multiple probes on the test area 110 of the test substrate 100, and the PCBA board can be tested at this time; when the driving component drives the storage component upward away from the test substrate 100, the PCBA board to be tested placed above the storage component is separated from the multiple probes on the test area 110 of the test substrate 100, and the PCBA board cannot be tested at this time. In the light guide unit, the number of light guide components 400 is consistent with the number of indicator lights on the back of the PCBA board to be tested, and each light guide component 400 can transmit the on and off status of the indicator light on the back of the PCBA board to be tested to the indication area position, so the status of the indicator light on the back of the PCBA board to be tested can be observed at the indication area position.
[0046] After the light guide unit is set, the indicator light located at the back of the PCBA board that is inconvenient to observe is transmitted to the indicator area position that is easy to observe through multiple light guide components 400 in the light guide unit, and displayed. At the same time, each light guide component 400 is set one-to-one with the indicator light on the back of each PCBA board to be tested, so the on and off status of each light is displayed independently, avoiding the problem that it is difficult to specifically judge the status of a single indicator light when multiple indicator lights of the same color are set close to each other. The PCBA test device of the embodiment of the utility model is helpful for detecting the status of the indicator light on the back of the PCBA board, can realize the observation of the on and off status of the indicator light set on the back of the PCBA board, and makes the detection process simpler while improving the detection accuracy.
[0047] In some embodiments, the PCBA board to be tested is an earphone charging box PCBA board. Some earphone charging boxes have many lighting effects, including a status light or atmosphere light that is displayed when the charging box cover is opened or closed or when the earphones are put in or taken out. There is a disinfection light such as a UVC lamp that works after the earphones are put into the charging box, and an indicator light that displays the charging status on the outside of the charging box. Some of these lighting effects are set on the front of the earphone charging box PCBA board, and some are set on the back of the earphone charging box PCBA board.
[0048] In some embodiments, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the light guide component 400 is an optical fiber, and multiple optical fibers are arranged one-to-one corresponding to the indicator lights on the back of multiple PCBA boards to be tested. The first end of each optical fiber is close to a corresponding indicator light, and the second end is extended to the indication area.
[0049] In this embodiment, the multiple light guide components 400 in the light guide unit use multiple optical fibers. The optical fiber is made of quartz or polymer materials, has a skin-core structure with different refractive indices, is a chemical fiber that can conduct light due to the total reflection of the cortex, and has a good light guiding effect. Specifically, the optical fiber can be a tail optical fiber, one end of the tail optical fiber is facing the light source, and the tail of the other end can see the color and brightness of the light of the object to be tested. For example, one end of the tail optical fiber is set near the lamp to be tested. When the lamp to be tested is not turned on, the other end of the tail optical fiber can see the color of the transparent optical fiber itself, and when the lamp to be tested is turned on, the other end of the tail optical fiber can see the color of the lamp to be tested and other specific light status. In addition, the use of optical fibers in the light guide component 400 can also avoid the problem of glare when looking directly at the light.
[0050] In some embodiments, the light guide assembly 400 can also be a plurality of light guide plates. The light guide plate is made of optical grade acrylic or PC sheet material, and then a high-tech material with an extremely high refractive index and no light absorption is used to print light guide points on the bottom surface of the optical grade acrylic sheet material by laser engraving, V-shaped cross grid engraving, and UV screen printing technology. The optical grade acrylic sheet material is used to absorb the light emitted from the lamp and stay on the surface of the optical grade acrylic sheet material. When the light hits each light guide point, the reflected light will diffuse to various angles, and then destroy the reflection condition and be emitted from the front of the light guide plate. Through various light guide points of different densities and sizes, the light guide plate can emit light evenly. Specifically, the light guide plate can be a long strip light guide plate.

[0054] The second fixing hole 160 is disposed in the indicating area, and the second end of the optical fiber passes through the second fixing hole 160 and is extended to the indicating area; the second fixing hole 160 is used to fix the second end of the optical fiber.
[0055] The first fixing hole 150 is provided in the test area 110 on the test substrate 100 and is arranged at the position corresponding to each indicator light on the back of the PCBA board to be tested. The first end of each optical fiber is fixed at a corresponding first fixing hole 150 and receives the light emitted by the indicator light on the back of the PCBA board above the first fixing hole 150. The second fixing hole 160 is provided in the indication area on the test substrate 100, and the second end of the optical fiber passes through the second fixing hole 160 and is placed in the indication area on the test substrate 100. There can be one or more second fixing holes 160. When there is only one second fixing hole 160, the second ends of all optical fibers pass through the second fixing hole 160. However, it is necessary to mark the indicator light corresponding to each optical fiber to prevent test errors. The second fixing holes 160 that are consistent with the number of indicator lights on the back of the PCBA board to be tested can also be provided. In this case, each second fixing hole 160 corresponds to passing through the second end of an optical fiber, which is convenient for observing each indicator light.

[0058] In some embodiments, the power input unit 140 has a positive input terminal and a negative input terminal, and a protection capacitor is disposed between the positive input terminal and the negative input terminal. The protection capacitor can prevent surges from occurring and protect the circuit from working safely and stably.
[0059] In some embodiments, the PCBA test device further includes a switch unit 130 for performing a power on / off operation of the PCBA board to be tested. The switch unit 130 is a test-related device disposed on the test substrate 100, which is connected to a corresponding probe through a wire. The switch unit 130 may be a power on / off button.
[0060] In some embodiments, the test substrate 100 is provided with an LCD display touch screen, a power input unit 140, and a power on / off button. The PCBA board to be tested is the PCBA board of the earphone charging box. The power supply device connected to the power input unit 140 is set to the power-on voltage of the earphone charging box, which can be specifically 3.8 V. When the driving component drives the storage component downward to approach the test substrate 100, the PCBA board to be tested placed above the storage component contacts with a plurality of probes on the test area 110 of the test substrate 100. At this time, the PCBA board can be tested, and the LCD display touch screen displays the display content of the original display screen on the earphone charging box. By touching the LCD display touch screen, the indicator light of the earphone charging box can be turned on or off. At the indicator area of the test substrate 100, the color and light status of the indicator light can be observed through the second end of the extended optical fiber.

[0064] When the elastic support component is compressed in a direction perpendicular to the test substrate 100, the placement plate 210 approaches the test substrate 100, and the test points on the PCBA board to be tested on the placement plate 210 contact the probes on the test substrate 100; when the elastic support component recovers from the compressed state in a direction perpendicular to the test substrate 100, the placement plate 210 moves away from the test substrate 100, and the test points on the PCBA board to be tested on the placement plate 210 are disconnected from the probes on the test substrate 100.
[0065] In some embodiments, a PCBA board placement area 211 to be tested is provided on the placement plate 210 for placing the PCBA board to be tested, and its position is set corresponding to the position of the probe on the lower test substrate 100.
