Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flexible circuit board production, and particularly relates to a general-purpose LED test fixture. Background Art

[0002] An LED lamp is a light-emitting diode, which is a commonly used light-emitting device. Usually, a solid semiconductor chip is used as the light-emitting material. Compared with traditional lamps, LED lamps are energy-saving, environmentally friendly, have good color rendering and response speed, and have a wide range of uses in modern society, such as lighting, flat panel displays, medical devices, smartphones, etc. The LED lamps used in smartphones mainly provide lighting for the camera module. LEDs are usually attached to the surface of the flexible circuit board in the SMT manner. After SMT, the product needs to be subjected to functional tests to test the welding performance and conduction performance of the LEDs and the flexible circuit board.

[0003] Due to the differences in the internal camera module structures of mobile phones, the shapes of FPCs are also different. Therefore, different products require different test fixtures, resulting in a relatively high cost of the fixtures. If an artificial multimeter is used for testing, it is easy to cause defects such as pad pressing points, pressing injuries, scratches, and mismeasurement, resulting in a decline in product quality and yield. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a brand-new structure of LED test fixture that can be freely adjusted according to the shapes of different products to make it a general-purpose LED test fixture, thereby reducing production costs and improving product quality and yield.
