Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a multi-core HAST test box connector structure. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous advancement of technology, numerous fields, including aviation, aerospace, new energy, electronics, chips, semiconductors, and AI, are placing ever-stricter demands on products and components. The lifespan and reliability of core electronic components, semiconductors, and chips within control systems directly impact the safe and reliable operation of components, even entire machines and systems. Even the slightest deviation can result in irreparable and significant losses.

[0003] As crucial equipment for product reliability testing, environmental test chambers play a vital role in product development, design, acceptance, and testing across a wide range of industries. HAST (Hybrid Aging Test) chambers are particularly important in the electronics, semiconductor, and chip industries. Japanese brands have a near monopoly on HAST chambers.

[0004] As a key component of the HAST aging test chamber, the connector primarily connects external test equipment to the test piece within the chamber, enabling real-time transmission of test data and communication. However, due to the high temperature, pressure, and humidity environment within the chamber, and the high number of communication channels required, the connector's structure and performance directly impact the reliability of test data.

[0005] The common practice of commonly used connectors is to open a hole in the wall of the pressure barrel, and make a relatively large plug with insulating and high-temperature resistant materials to ensure the sealing of the barrel wall. At the same time, many stainless steel round rods are installed on the plug, passing through the plug, leaving a small section inside and outside for welding cables. The cables are welded on both ends of the stainless steel round rods using a special process. The outer end of the cable can be connected to the test equipment, and the inner cable is connected to the test piece.

[0006] The structural shortcomings of this connector are particularly significant. It can only be used for simple switching signals and power supply, resulting in a relatively short lifespan. The spacing between each channel is relatively tight, and the welding of stainless steel and copper wire requires specialized processes, making welding reliability uncertain. In the high-temperature, high-humidity, and high-pressure environment of a workstation, solder joints are also prone to aging and desoldering. Stable signal transmission for hundreds of channels cannot be guaranteed, and even slight changes in the electrical signal can lead to erroneous results. Many current tests require a large number of channels, and the supply of high voltage and current to the test piece is highly demanding. Short circuits and other issues can easily occur in such high-temperature, high-humidity, and high-pressure environments. Utility Model Content

[0007] In order to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings, the utility model provides a multi-core HAST test box connector structure which can meet the multi-channel requirements and has no welding points in the middle of the communication cable.

[0008] The purpose of this utility model is achieved in this way:

[0009] A multi-core HAST test chamber connector structure includes a connector body, which is installed on the pressure chamber of the test chamber. A thread is provided at one end of the connector body, and the thread cooperates with a large nut to install the connector body on the pressure chamber. A step hole is provided on the connector body, and step holes are evenly distributed on the end surface of the connector body. The step holes are processed with step cone surfaces and internal threads. A small screw is installed in each step hole. The outside of the small screw is provided with an external thread that cooperates with the internal thread. A through hole is provided in the middle of the small screw. A wire is passed through the center of the small screw, a hollow seal, a step hole, and the center of the step hole. The wire passes through the step hole and respectively passes through the through holes of the hollow seal and the small screw. The external thread and the internal thread are tightened to squeeze the hollow seal so that the hollow seal and the step cone surface are sealed, and the hollow seal is elastically deformed so that the outer skin of the wire is sealed with the inner hole of the seal.

[0010] The outer side of the connector body is provided with a step.

[0011] A sealing groove is provided on the connector body, and a sealing ring is installed in the sealing groove.

[0012] A hollow sealing member is arranged between the bottom step conical surfaces of the small screw, and a conical surface is processed on one end of the hollow sealing member.

[0013] One end of the small screw is machined with a step.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0015] This multi-core HAST test chamber connector utilizes a modular design. Each connector supports dozens of channels, allowing multiple connectors to meet multi-channel requirements. Furthermore, the communication cable used has no welds, connecting directly from the test equipment to the test specimen. The cable itself is designed to withstand high temperatures, high voltages, and currents, meeting all current testing requirements. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
