[0036] In this embodiment, the knob 10 has a bidirectional rotation function and can be rotated both clockwise and counterclockwise. The pressure sensor 30 is fixed to the stud 20 by a screw. By rotating the knob 10, the upper and lower positions of the stud 20 can be accurately adjusted, thereby driving the pressure sensor 30 and the pressure block 40 to make corresponding up and down adjustments. This adjustment enables the pressure block 40 to apply different degrees of pressure to the product to be tested 140 according to demand. During the process of the pressure block 40 applying pressure, the pressure sensor 30 located between the stud 20 and the pressure block 40 senses and collects the reaction force generated by the pressure, thereby being used to react to the pressure applied to the product to be tested 140. The pads or pins on the second side of the product to be tested 140 are electrically connected to the first side of the evaluation board 60 through the first side needle of the double-headed probe 50, and the evaluation board 60 performs performance evaluation on the product to be tested 140 subjected to different pressures.

[0037] It is understandable that in other embodiments not shown, the knob 10 and the first side of the stud 20 may also be fixedly connected by screws, gluing, snap-fitting or other methods, which are not limited here.
