[0028] The utility model discloses an automated testing component and an automated testing device, which are used to solve the technical problem that the startup test of existing electronic equipment needs to be completed by a short press or a long press of a power button, thereby resulting in low testing efficiency.

[0029] To help those skilled in the art better understand the present invention, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Obviously, the embodiments described are only a portion of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments derived by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are also within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] See also Figures 1 to 2 , an embodiment of the present utility model provides an automated testing assembly, comprising a base 1, a first driving member, an angle adjustment module, and a click module 4 for contacting and clicking with a button of a device to be tested;

[0031] The first driving member is installed on the base 1, the angle adjustment module is connected to the first driving member, and the click module 4 is connected to the angle adjustment module. The first driving member is used to drive the angle adjustment module close to the device to be tested so that the click module 4 clicks the button on the device to be tested.

[0032] In this embodiment of the automated testing assembly, after the operator positions the device to be tested, they adjust the click angle of click module 4 using the angle adjustment module. This then activates the first actuator, which drives click module 4 to perform a short or long press on a button on the device, thereby completing the device startup test. This design replaces the manual button-pressing test operation, saving time and effort, and effectively improving testing efficiency.

[0033] Furthermore, the first driving member in this embodiment is a telescopic bracket 2;

[0034] The fixed end of the telescopic bracket 2 is connected to the base 1 , and the movable end of the telescopic bracket 2 is connected to the angle adjustment module.

[0035] It should be noted that, through the above-described design, the telescopic bracket 2 can drive the click module 4 to contact the button on the device under test, thereby achieving a short press or long press on the button. The operator can achieve the above-mentioned short press or long press action by programming the telescopic bracket 2. The specific programming method is a conventional technology and is generally known to those skilled in the art. This embodiment does not provide a detailed description of this method. In addition, the short press time, long press time, click interval time, etc. of the button by the click module 4 can all be programmed through the telescopic bracket 2.

[0036] Specifically, the telescopic bracket 2 in this embodiment includes a fixed tube body 201, a movable tube body 202 and an electric cylinder;

[0037] The fixed tube body 201 has an interior with an accommodating cavity, the movable tube body 202 is movably inserted in the accommodating cavity, the electric cylinder is installed in the accommodating cavity and connected to the movable tube body 202, the angle adjustment module is connected to one end of the movable tube body 202 away from the fixed tube body 201, and the electric cylinder is used to drive the movable tube body 202 to move in the accommodating cavity so that the movable tube body 202 can be extended and retracted relative to the fixed tube body 201.

[0038] It should be noted that, through the above design, when the electric cylinder drives the movable tube 202 to extend from the fixed tube 201, it can drive the click module 4 to click the keys. When the click module 4 is no longer needed to click the keys, the electric cylinder drives the movable tube 202 to retract towards the fixed tube 201.

[0039] Furthermore, the angle adjustment module in this embodiment is a universal ball joint 3;

[0040] The universal joint 3 includes a connecting rod 301 and a spherical joint 302 connected to the connecting rod 301 . The connecting rod 301 is connected to the first driving member, and the click module 4 is movably connected to the spherical joint 302 .

[0041] It should be noted that, through the above design, the click module 4 can achieve 360° angle adjustment, thereby meeting the click requirements of buttons at different angles.

[0042] Furthermore, the click module 4 in this embodiment includes a connecting plate 401 and a click head (not shown in the figure);

[0043] The connecting plate 401 is connected to the angle adjustment module, and the click head is detachably connected to the connecting plate 401 .

[0044] It should be noted that, since the button sizes on different electronic devices vary, the above design facilitates the operator to replace the appropriate click head for different button sizes, thereby enabling the automated test assembly to meet the needs of different types of electronic devices for startup testing. Furthermore, the click head of this embodiment is a conventional component in the art.

[0045] Specifically, in one of the specific implementations, the click head in this embodiment is threadedly connected to the connecting plate 401.

[0046] It should be noted that the above design enables the operator to quickly replace the click head.

[0047] In another specific implementation, the click head in this embodiment is snap-connected with the connecting plate 401 .

[0048] It should be noted that the above design also enables the operator to quickly replace the click head.

[0049] See also Figures 1 to 2 , an embodiment of the present utility model provides an automated testing device, comprising a test box, a positioning fixture for a device to be tested installed in the test box, and the above-mentioned automated testing component;

[0050] The base 1 of the automated test assembly is fixed in the test box. Specifically, the base 1 is fastened to the shelf 5 of the test box by screws.

[0051] The automated testing equipment of this embodiment can be specifically used for laptop startup testing. Specifically, the operator first secures the laptop to be tested on a fixture. After the operator places the laptop, the operator adjusts the click angle of the click module 4 using the angle adjustment module. Then, the operator controls the first drive member to start. The first drive member drives the click module 4 to perform a short or long press on the power button on the laptop, thereby completing the startup test of the device. Through the above design, the test operation of manually pressing buttons can be replaced, saving time and effort, thereby effectively improving test efficiency. In addition, through the above design, it can avoid the operator frequently opening the test box to press buttons during the test, which can cause changes in the temperature and humidity inside the test box and lead to deviations in the test results.

[0052] Furthermore, in order to meet the testing requirements of the device to be tested at different temperatures and humidities, the test box in this embodiment has temperature and humidity adjustment functions. Specifically, the adjustable temperature range of the test box is 0~40°C.

[0053] It should be noted that the above temperature range can be set according to actual test requirements, and this embodiment does not impose any specific restrictions on this. In addition, the humidity range can also be set according to actual test requirements, and this embodiment also does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0054] Furthermore, the test box in this embodiment specifically includes a box body and a box door hinged to the box body.

[0055] It should be noted that the above-mentioned door design can prevent the temperature and humidity inside the test box from being affected by the external environment and thus affecting the startup test of the electronic equipment.

[0056] The above is a detailed introduction to an automated testing component and automated testing equipment provided by the present invention. For those skilled in the art, based on the ideas of the embodiments of the present invention, there may be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
