[0029] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , a fixture for automatically testing the firmware of a wireless router, including a base 1. An installation groove is opened on one side of the top of the base 1. A rotating motor 2 is fixedly installed in the installation groove. The output end of the rotating motor 2 is fixedly connected to a rotating table 3. Four installation platforms 4 are evenly and fixedly connected to the top of the rotating table 3. A clamping assembly for fixing the router is provided on each installation platform 4. The clamping assembly includes two clamping plates 41 symmetrically arranged on the installation platform 4. Two movable grooves are symmetrically opened on the top of the installation platform 4. A connecting seat 42 is slidably arranged in the movable groove. The two connecting seats 42 are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding clamping plates 41. One of the clamping plates 41 is fixedly connected to the output end of an electric push rod 43. The electric push rod 43 is fixedly installed on the installation platform 4. A groove communicating with the movable groove is opened in the installation platform 4. A transmission assembly is arranged in the groove. The two connecting seats 42 are moved and adjusted through the transmission assembly. A test platform 5 fixedly connected to the base 1 is arranged on one side of the rotating table 3. A test assembly is arranged on the test platform 5.

[0030] It should be noted that during use, multiple routers are respectively placed on the installation table 4, and then the electric push rod 43 is started to push the clamping plate 41 to move. At this time, the connecting seat 42 moves synchronously, and under the action of the transmission component, another connecting seat 42 and the clamping plate 41 are driven to move, realizing the clamping and fixing of both sides of the router. After the fixing is completed, the interface of the router is tested through the test component. After the test is completed, the rotating motor 2 is started, and the rotating table 3 is driven by the rotating motor 2 to rotate intermittently. The rotation of the rotating table 3 drives the installation table 4 corresponding to the test table 5 to move away from the test table 5, and the adjacent installation table 4 is aligned with the test table 5. Then, the router is subjected to plugging and unplugging tests through the test component. During this process, the router that has completed the test starts the electric push rod 43 to reset, the router is taken out, and an untested router is placed, thus forming a closed loop, so that the test work can be continuously carried out, saving the idle time for loading and unloading, greatly improving the overall work efficiency, and meeting the usage requirements in the existing market.

[0031] In an embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the clamping plate 41 is set to be rectangular, and an anti-slip layer is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the clamping plate 41.

[0032] It should be noted that the design of the anti-slip layer can increase the friction between the clamping plate 41 and the router, and the fixing effect is better.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the transmission component includes a gear 61 rotatably arranged in the middle of the groove. Both sides of the gear 61 are meshed with a rack 62. The rack 62 is slidably arranged in the groove, and the two ends of the two racks 62 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the corresponding connecting seat 42.

[0034] It should be noted that during the process of clamping the router, the two connecting seats 42 move synchronously in the same or opposite directions. During this process, the two racks 62 move synchronously, and the gear 61 rotates synchronously.

[0035] In an embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, connecting rods 31 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the rotating table 3. The bottom of the connecting rod 31 is rotatably connected to a wheel 32. An annular slide rail is opened at the top of the base 1, and multiple wheels 32 are all slidably arranged in the annular slide rail.

[0036] It should be noted that by setting the wheels 32, during the rotation of the rotating table 3, the wheels 32 slide synchronously in the annular slide rail. Such a design makes the rotation of the rotating table 3 more stable.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present utility model, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the test assembly includes a cylinder 51 fixedly installed on a test bench 5. The output end of the cylinder 51 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 52. A test head 53 is installed on one side of the mounting plate 52 close to the rotary table 3. A slider 54 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 52. A slide rail is provided at the top of the test bench 5, and the slider 54 is slidably disposed within the slide rail.

[0038] It should be noted that when it is necessary to test a router, by starting the cylinder 51, the mounting plate 52 and the test head 53 can be pushed to move. Then, the test head 53 can be inserted into the interface of the router for testing. After the test is completed, start the cylinder 51 to reset, and then the test head 53 is pulled out from the interface of the router, thus completing a plugging and unplugging test. By providing the slider 54, during the movement of the mounting plate 52, the slider 54 slides on the slide rail synchronously. Such a design can play a certain guiding role in the movement of the mounting plate 52.

[0039] The working principle of the present utility model is:

[0040] During use, multiple routers are respectively placed on the mounting table 4. Subsequently, start the electric push rod 43 to push the clamping plate 41 to move. At this time, the connecting seat 42 moves synchronously. During this process, the rack 62 at the bottom of the connecting seat 42 moves synchronously, thereby driving the gear 61 to rotate, and then driving another rack 62 to move, so that another connecting seat 42 and the clamping plate 41 move to realize the clamping and fixing of both sides of the router. After the fixing is completed, start the cylinder 51 to push the mounting plate 52 and the test head 53 to move, so that the test head 53 is inserted into the interface of the router for testing. After the test is completed, start the cylinder 51 to reset, so that the test head 53 is pulled out from the interface of the router, thus completing the plugging and unplugging test. Then start the rotary motor 2. The rotary motor 2 drives the rotary table 3 to rotate intermittently. The rotation of the rotary table 3 drives the mounting table 4 corresponding to the test bench 5 to move away from the test bench 5, and the adjacent mounting table 4 is aligned with the test bench 5. Subsequently, the router is subjected to a plugging and unplugging test by the test assembly. During this process, the router that has completed the test starts the electric push rod 43 to reset, takes out the router, and places the untested router, thus forming a closed loop, and thus the test work can be continuously carried out. The present utility model is provided with a plurality of mounting tables 4. The rotary motor 2 drives the rotary table 3 to rotate intermittently. Each rotation of the rotary table 3 drives one of the mounting tables 4 to move away from the test bench 5, and the other mounting table 4 is aligned with the test bench 5. Subsequently, the router is tested by the test assembly, so that the test work can be continuously carried out, saving the idle time for loading and unloading, greatly improving the overall work efficiency, and meeting the usage requirements in the existing market.

[0041] The above are only the preferred specific embodiments of the present utility model; however, the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, according to the technical solution of the present utility model and its improved concept, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present utility model.
