Detailed implementation mode

[0034] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0035] Therefore, a feature pointed out in this specification will be used to illustrate one of the features of one embodiment of the present utility model, rather than implying that each embodiment of the present utility model must have the described feature. In addition, it should be noted that this specification describes many features. Although certain features can be combined together to show a possible system design, these features can also be used in other combinations not explicitly described. Therefore, unless otherwise stated, the described combination is not intended to be limiting.

[0036] The principle of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0037] The present utility model provides a circuit board interface test tooling, as Figures 1-4 shown, which includes a tooling bottom plate 1. A wooden circuit board fixing seat 2 that slides in the left-right direction and a plug seat 3 that slides in the front-back direction are installed on the tooling bottom plate 1. The front part of the plug seat 3 faces the circuit board fixing seat 2; a plug 4 for connecting to the circuit board slot is provided at the front end of the plug seat 3; the circuit board fixing seat 2 is provided with a lifting carrier plate 21 and a movable pressing plate 22 for fixing the circuit board test piece 5 on the lifting carrier plate 21. The front end of the plug seat 3 is provided with a plurality of plugs 4 of various types, including TYPE-C plugs, USB plugs, DC plugs, etc.

[0038] This embodiment is applicable to the power-on test of various circuit boards. The circuit board fixing seat 2 is used to fix the circuit board test piece 5. After aligning the positions of the circuit board interface 51 and the plug 4 by translating the circuit board fixing seat 2 and adjusting the height of the lifting carrier plate 21, the plug seat 3 is moved forward to dock the plug 4 with the circuit board interface 51 to achieve the power-on test.

[0039] In this embodiment, a first slider 23 is provided at the bottom of the circuit board fixing seat 2, and a first chute 11 is provided on the tooling bottom plate 1. The first slider 23 is slidably installed in the first chute 11. A transmission screw hole is provided in the first slider 23, and a lead screw 24 in transmission cooperation is provided in the transmission screw hole. The two ends of the lead screw 24 penetrate through the tooling bottom plate 1 in the left-right direction, and a torsion wheel 241 is provided at one end of the lead screw 24. By manually rotating the torsion wheel 241, the left-right movement of the circuit board fixing seat 2 can be realized through the transmission of the lead screw 24.

[0040] In this embodiment, the lifting carrier plate 21 is a double-layer plate, including a lower carrier plate 211 and an upper carrier plate 212. The lower carrier plate 211 and the upper carrier plate 212 are connected by 4 adjusting studs 213, and a carrier plate spring 214 is arranged around the adjusting studs 213. Since the carrier plate has elasticity, when the movable pressure plate 22 is pressed down, the solder joints at the bottom of the circuit board test piece 5 can be avoided from being damaged. The circuit board test piece 5 may be a single-sided board, a double-sided board or a multi-layer board, so the thickness is not uniform, and the heights of the components on its surface are also different. Therefore, the thicknesses of each type of circuit board are different, but the thickness difference generally does not exceed 20 mm. By turning the adjusting stud 213 with a tool, the distance between the carrier plates can be adjusted, and then the interface height position of the circuit board test piece 5 can be adjusted to be the same as the height of the plug 4.

[0041] In this embodiment, the circuit board fixing seat 2 further includes a first support arm 221 and a second support arm 222 for mounting the movable pressure plate 22. One end of the movable pressure plate 22 is a fixed end, and the fixed end is hinged to the top of the first support arm 221. The other end is a free end, and the free end is placed in the limit groove 223 at the top of the second support arm 222. A locking tongue 224 for restricting the free end from disengaging is arranged in the limit groove 223. A locking tongue sliding groove 225 is arranged on the side of the limit groove 223, and the locking tongue sliding groove 225 is communicated with the limit groove 223. The body of the locking tongue 224 is slidably arranged in the locking tongue sliding groove 225. A tail rod 226 is arranged at the tail of the locking tongue 224, and the tail rod 226 passes through the outside of the locking tongue sliding groove 225. And a end cap 227 is arranged at the end of the tail rod 226. A locking tongue spring 228 for providing elastic force for the locking tongue 224 is arranged around the tail rod 226. When it is necessary to open the movable pressure plate 22, pull the end cap 227 outwards to make the locking tongue 224 completely enter the locking tongue sliding groove 225, and the restriction on the free end of the movable pressure plate 22 can be released. A lever 229 is connected to the fixed end of the movable pressure plate 22, and turn the lever 229 by hand to turn up the free end to open. After the circuit board test piece 5 is placed on the lifting carrier plate 21, press the movable pressure plate 22 downwards by hand until the free end enters the limit groove 223 and is locked by the locking tongue 224.

[0042] In this embodiment, a plurality of through holes are formed in the movable pressure plate 22, and press pins 6 are detachably installed in the through holes. The press pin 6 includes a hand-tightening cap 61, a vertical shaft 62, a limit ring 63 and a corner pin 64 from top to bottom. The hand-tightening cap 61 is screwed and installed at the top end of the vertical shaft 62. The vertical shaft 62 is arranged in the through hole. The limit ring 63 is located on the peripheral side of the vertical shaft 62 and close to the bottom of the vertical shaft 62. The corner pin 64 is connected to the bottom end of the vertical shaft 62. By rotating the hand-tightening cap 61 at the top end of the press pin 6, the position of the corner pin 64 at the bottom of the press pin 6 can be adjusted, so as to avoid the corner pin 64 from touching the components on the circuit board test piece 5 and causing damage. The lifting carrier plate 21 has elasticity, which can avoid the interface of the circuit board test piece 5 from being de-soldered due to force when connected to the plug 4.

[0043] In this embodiment, the circuit board interface test tooling further includes a thruster 7. The thruster 7 includes a thruster base 71, a wrench 72, a connecting rod 73, and a push rod 74. The thruster base 71 is fixedly installed on the tooling base plate 1, and a guiding cylinder 75 extending forward is provided at its top. The front end of the wrench 72 is provided with two connecting ends, one of which is hinged to the tail of the thruster base 71, and the other is hinged to the tail end of the connecting rod 73. The front end of the connecting rod 73 is hinged to the tail end of the push rod 74, and the front end of the push rod 74 is fixedly connected to the plug socket 3. By holding the wrench 72 and rotating it up and down, the forward and backward sliding of the driving plug socket 3 can be controlled.

[0044] The plug socket 3 includes a second slider 31, a plug socket bracket 32, a front sealing plate 33, and a plug mounting plate. The second slider 31 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the plug socket bracket 32. The tooling base plate 1 is further provided with a second chute 12, and the second slider 31 is slidably arranged in the second chute 12. The plug mounting plate is a double-layer plate, including a front mounting plate 34 and a rear mounting plate 35 which are elastically connected. The plug 4 is mounted on the front mounting plate 34, and the rear mounting plate 35 is detachably mounted on the front sealing plate 33. The elastic plug mounting plate can prevent the circuit board interface 51 from being de-soldered due to force when connected to the plug 4. The front mounting plate 34 and the rear mounting plate 35 are connected by a hand-tightening bolt 36. The rear end of the hand-tightening bolt 36 is provided with a detachable hand-tightening bolt cap, and the front end is provided with a retaining ring. The hand-tightening bolt 36 passes through the front sealing plate 33, the rear mounting plate 35, and the front mounting plate 34 from back to front and is threadedly connected between the front sealing plate 33 and the rear mounting plate 35. The retaining ring restricts the front mounting plate 34 from detaching at the front part, and the hand-tightening bolt cap is located at the rear side of the front sealing plate 33. An installation plate spring 37 is sleeved around the bolt body between the front mounting plate 34 and the rear mounting plate 35. By rotating the hand-tightening bolt 36, the distance between the front mounting plate 34 and the rear mounting plate 35 can be adjusted, and thus its elasticity can be adjusted.

[0045] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
