[0002] A digital video converter box (Set Top Box), also known as a set-top box or set-top box, is a device that connects a TV set to an external signal source. It can convert compressed digital signals into TV content and display it on the TV set. The signal can come from cable, satellite antenna, broadband network and terrestrial broadcasting. In addition to the images and sounds that analog TV can provide, the content received by the set-top box is also able to receive digital content, including electronic program guides, Internet pages, etc.

[0003] When the motherboard of the set-top box is produced, it needs to be tested for performance before leaving the factory, including testing the USB interface, RF head, and some functions of the motherboard, such as USB communication, Load ATE, etc. However, the existing fixtures on the market are all externally connected and manually inserted, which not only wastes man-hours, but also easily causes the problem of inserting multiple connection cables into the wrong holes. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art and to provide a set-top box function test fixture.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows: a set-top box function test fixture, including a fixture body, the fixture body is provided with at least two test benches, the test benches are provided with a set-top box limit frame, the set-top box limit frame is provided with a plurality of first through holes, accessories compatible with the set-top box are detachably installed in the first through holes, the set-top box limit frame is provided with a power mechanism for pushing the accessories to connect with the set-top box, and the set-top box is fixedly connected to the accessories through the power mechanism.

[0006] Furthermore, the two test benches are arranged up and down.

[0007] Furthermore, the accessories include one or more of wires, connecting wire terminals, and USB flash drives.

[0008] Furthermore, the connecting wire terminal is snap-connected to the limiting frame and fixed by bolts.

[0009] Furthermore, the power mechanism is a movable handle installed on the test bench.

[0010] Furthermore, a moving block is provided at one end of the movable handle, and a second through hole adapted to the U disk is provided on the moving block.

[0011] Furthermore, a connecting wire is provided at the other end of the USB flash drive.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. The present application reduces the occupied area of ​​the production line by the tooling by providing at least two test benches on the fixture body and increases the utilization rate of each workstation space.

[0014] 2. The present application provides a set-top box limit frame on a test bench, the set-top box limit frame is provided with a plurality of first through holes, accessories compatible with the set-top box are detachably installed in the first through holes, the set-top box limit frame is provided with a power mechanism for pushing the accessories to connect with the set-top box, the set-top box and the accessories are fixedly connected by the power mechanism, so that each accessory on the jig can be accurately inserted into the set-top box, thereby reducing electrical and structural damages to the set-top box caused by inaccurate positioning. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0015] Figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of a set-top box function test fixture in a preferred embodiment of the utility model.

[0016] Figure numerals: 1. fixture body; 2. test bench; 3. limit frame; 4. first through hole; 5. movable handle; 6. moving block; 7. second through hole. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0018] Reference Figure 1 As shown, a preferred embodiment of the utility model is a set-top box function test fixture, including a fixture body 1, on which at least two test benches 2 are provided, thereby reducing the area occupied by the tooling on the production line and increasing the utilization rate of each workstation space; a set-top box limiting frame 3 is provided on the test bench 2, and a plurality of first through holes 4 are opened on the set-top box limiting frame 3, in which accessories compatible with the set-top box are detachably installed, and a power mechanism for pushing the accessories to be connected with the set-top box is provided on the set-top box limiting frame, and the set-top box and the accessories are fixedly connected by the power mechanism, so that each accessory on the fixture can be accurately inserted into the set-top box, thereby reducing the electrical and structural damage to the set-top box caused by inaccurate positioning.
