AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During the test of the existing mobile phone data cable plug-in test device, due to the horizontal deviation between the data cable connector and the mobile phone interface, the force sensor detects a force in a non-vertical direction, affecting the accuracy of the test results.

Method used

An adaptive plugging and unplugging machine was designed, which includes a base, a column, a connecting plate, a force sensor and an adjustment component. By setting a ball and limit groove structure on the connecting rod, it can move adaptively in the active cavity, eliminating the horizontal force and ensuring that the force sensor only measures the plugging and unplugging force in the vertical direction.

Benefits of technology

This ensures that when there is a slight position deviation between the data cable connector and the mobile phone interface, the force sensor can accurately measure the plugging and unplugging force in the vertical direction, thereby improving the accuracy of the test results.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of plug-in detection, in particular to an adaptive plug-in machine. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing popularity of smartphones, mobile data cables have become a crucial accessory, and their quality and durability directly impact the user experience. To ensure the quality of mobile data cables, manufacturers conduct rigorous plug-and-unplug tests before shipment to verify their durability and connection stability. However, existing plug-and-unplug test equipment exhibits several issues during actual testing, impacting the accuracy of test results.

[0003] Traditional mobile phone data cable plug-in and unplug testing equipment typically consists of two main components: a base that secures the phone and a lifting mechanism that simulates the plug-in and unplug action of the data cable connector. During the test, the cable connector is repeatedly plugged and unplugged into the phone's interface via the lifting mechanism to verify the cable's durability and connection performance.

[0004] However, during testing, the data cable connector sometimes deviates horizontally from the phone's interface. This deviation can cause the force sensor to detect forces in a non-vertical direction, affecting the accuracy of test results. In particular, if the data cable connector is not precisely aligned with the phone's interface during testing, the force sensor may register the horizontal force component during insertion or removal, rather than the vertical insertion and removal force, distorting test data.

[0031] Specifically, when the adaptive plug-in machine described in this embodiment is in use, the mobile phone is fixed on the lower clamp and the connector is fixed on the upper clamp, and then the connecting plate 21 is driven to move downward, so that the connector is inserted into the interface of the mobile phone, thereby performing a plug-in test. At the same time, the force sensor 22 can detect the plug-in force.

[0032] When the connector is plugged into the interface of the mobile phone, if there is a slight positional deviation between the connector and the interface of the mobile phone, the connecting rod 4 can adaptively move in the movable cavity 31, thereby eliminating the force generated by the connecting rod 4 in the horizontal direction and retaining the force in the vertical direction, so that the force transmission sensor 22 can measure accurately.
