[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 The utility model provides an embodiment: an auxiliary fixture for testing a circuit board, comprising a base plate 1, which plays a supporting role and improves the stability of the equipment during operation. The top of the base plate 1 is fixedly connected to a workbench 2 for testing the circuit board, and a positioning mechanism is provided inside the workbench 2. The top of the base plate 1 is fixedly connected to a support frame 3 that plays a supporting and stabilizing role, and a driving mechanism is provided on the top of the support frame 3. The inside of the support frame 3 is provided with a top plate 5 arranged in a horizontal state, and a pressing mechanism is provided at the bottom of the top plate 5.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 、 Figure 3 The clamping mechanism includes a connecting rod 6, which is hinged at the bottom of the base plate 1, and a connecting rod 2 7 is hinged at one end of the connecting rod 6 away from the top plate 5. The lengths of the connecting rod 1 6 and the connecting rod 2 7 are equal, and the connecting rod 1 6 and the connecting rod 2 7 are both set to an inclined state. The connecting rod 1 6 and the connecting rod 2 7 form a V shape, and the connecting rod 1 6 and the connecting rod 2 7 are elastically connected by a spring 1 8. The bottom of the connecting rod 2 7 is fixedly connected with a rubber column 9 with good elasticity, which can play a buffering role and at the same time increase the friction force, improve the stability of the circuit board fixation, and protect the surface of the circuit board to prevent the circuit board surface from being scratched and damaged, thereby improving the protection effect. A limiting mechanism is set on the right side of the connecting rod 2 7.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2The driving mechanism includes an electric cylinder 4 for providing power. The electric cylinder 4 is fixedly installed on the top of the support frame 3. The bottom of the output shaft of the electric cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the top plate 5. The operation of the electric cylinder 4 causes the top plate 5 to move up and down. The bottom of the top plate 5 is fixedly connected with a test module 16 for testing the circuit board, which is the existing technology.

[0033] Reference Figure 3 The limiting mechanism includes a limiting plate 10 and a limiting column 11. The limiting plate 10 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the connecting rod 2 7, and the limiting column 11 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the connecting rod 1 6. A limiting groove 12 is provided on the inner wall of the limiting plate 10. The limiting groove 12 is arranged in an arc shape. The limiting column 11 slides on the inner wall of the limiting groove 12. Through the cooperation of the limiting column 11 and the limiting groove 12, the connecting rod 1 6 and the connecting rod 2 7 have a rotation angle that plays a limiting role, which can play a protective role and prevent the connecting rod 1 6 and the connecting rod 2 7 from causing damage to the equipment due to excessive rotation angle.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 4 The positioning mechanism includes a positioning block 13. A slide groove 14 is provided on the top of the workbench 2. The positioning block 13 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the slide groove 14. The positioning block 13 is elastically connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 14 through a spring 2 15. The number of positioning blocks 13 is set to multiple, and multiple positioning blocks 13 are symmetrically arranged on the top of the workbench 2. By pulling the positioning block 13 and placing the circuit board in the middle of multiple positioning blocks 13, and then releasing the positioning block 13, the positioning block 13 is reset under the elastic force of the spring 2 15, and the circuit board is pushed to the center of the workbench 2, which has a positioning effect and improves the accuracy of the test results. The shape of the positioning block 13 is set to L-shaped, which adapts to the shape of the circuit board.

[0035] Working principle: When in use, the circuit board is placed on the workbench 2 and pushed to the center above the workbench 2 by the positioning block 13. Then the power of the electric cylinder 4 is started. The electric cylinder 4 works to make the top plate 5 move downward. The displacement of the top plate 5 drives the connecting rod 1 6 and the connecting rod 2 7 to move downward together, and first contacts the top of the circuit board through the rubber column 9 under the connecting rod 2 7. The top plate 5 continues to move downward, so that the connecting rod 1 6 and the connecting rod 2 7 rotate with each other, and exerts a reaction force on the circuit board at the bottom of the rubber column 9 through the compression spring 1 8, thereby pressing the circuit board to the top of the workbench 2, improving the stability of the circuit board during testing, and at the same time, by setting the spring 1 8, the possibility of excessive pressing force on the circuit board and thus causing damage to the circuit board can be reduced.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
