[0042] The computer terminal 420 is electrically connected to the adapter board 310 , and is used to detect whether a solid-state hard disk is inserted into the adapter board 310 .
[0043] Therefore, by driving the product holder 200 toward or away from the adapter plate 310 on the interface holder 320 through the drive module 100, the solid-state drive and the adapter plate 310 can be plugged in and out multiple times. Since the adapter plate 310 is connected to the computer terminal 420, the solid-state drive can be read each time the adapter plate 310 is connected to the solid-state drive, thereby determining the performance of the solid-state drive. When the preset number of plugging and unplugging is met, the size of the gold finger of the solid-state drive can be measured. Therefore, the gold finger verification system of the embodiment of the present application can not only perform multiple plugging and unplugging tests on the gold finger, but also perform functional testing on the solid-state drive during the plugging and unplugging process. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application can improve the effectiveness of the gold finger verification of the solid-state drive.
[0044] It is understandable that the driving module 100 can be driven by a motor or a cylinder, and this embodiment of the present application does not limit this.
[0045] It is understandable that the product holder 200 can be designed according to the structure of the solid state drive. In this regard, the embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific structure of the product holder 200. For example, Figure 2 As shown, the solid state drive is clamped in the product fixing bracket 200 , and the gap reserved for the solid state drive insertion in the product fixing bracket 200 is adjusted by screws, so that the solid state drive 410 can be fixed.
[0046] It is understood that a script file can be configured in the computer terminal 420 so that the solid-state hard disk inserted into the adapter board 310 can be periodically read and the reading results can be recorded. In some embodiments, a control module is also provided, which is connected to the drive module 100. When the computer terminal 420 fails to read the disk, the drive module 100 can be stopped to perform the plugging and unplugging operation. The control module can be integrated into the computer terminal 420 or provided independently, and this embodiment of the application does not limit this.
[0047] The computer terminal 420 may be a PC terminal, a Pad terminal, etc. In this regard, the embodiment of the present application may be selectively set according to the application device of the solid-state drive.

[0051] The interface holder 320 , the product holder 200 and the drive module 100 are all arranged on the machine 500 , and the control panel 510 is used to control the number of times the drive module 100 drives the product holder 200 to move back and forth toward the adapter plate 310 according to the number of plugging and unplugging.
[0052] By providing the machine platform 500 , the driving module 100 , the product fixing frame 200 and the interface fixing frame 320 can be integrated together, thereby facilitating movement.
[0053] A control chip is integrated on the control panel 510. The control chip has an integrated chip or PLC with logical operation functions. The control panel 510 can display the remaining plug-in times and the plug-in result (plug-in completion or failure). The number setting key circuit includes at least a number key switch 521. For example, in some embodiments, the number setting key circuit may include the number key switch 521 and a MOS switch tube, etc., so that different level signals can be generated to the control chip when the number key switch 521 is closed or open, and the control chip can then set the number of times according to the high and low level signals. In this regard, the embodiments of the present application do not limit the control chip model and the specific structure of the number setting key circuit.
[0054] It is understandable that referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the machine 500 is also integrated with a speed control button circuit, which is connected to the control panel 510 to control the movement speed of the driving module 100 to drive the product fixing frame 200.
[0055] The rate control button circuit can enable the life of the gold finger to be verified at different plug-in and pull-out rates, thereby further improving the effectiveness of the verification.
[0056] In some embodiments, the rate control button circuit includes at least a rate button switch 522. In some embodiments, the rate control button circuit includes a rate button switch 522 and a MOS switch tube, etc. When the rate button switch 522 is closed or disconnected, different level signals are generated to the control chip, so that the control chip can determine whether to adjust the rate or the number of plug-in and plug-out times according to the high and low levels transmitted by different pins. In some embodiments, the rates of different test gears can be preset in the control chip, and one of the movement rates can be selected for testing through the rate button switch 522. In other embodiments, the rate setting interface display on the control screen 510 can be triggered by the rate button circuit, so that the movement rate can be set by directly entering the movement rate in the interface. In this regard, the embodiments of the present application do not impose too many restrictions.
[0057] It is understandable that referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the machine 500 is also integrated with a plus key circuit and a minus key circuit, both of which are connected to the control panel 510 to adjust the movement speed or the number of plugging and unplugging times.
[0058] It is understandable that by setting the plus key circuit and the minus key circuit, the rate control key circuit and the number setting key circuit can be combined to realize manual adjustment of the rate and the number respectively.
[0059] The plus key circuit includes at least a plus key switch 523, and the minus key circuit includes at least a minus key switch 524. The rate control key circuit can enter a rate setting mode, whereby the rate can be increased or decreased using the plus key switch 523 and the minus key switch 524. The number setting key circuit can enter a number setting mode, whereby the number can be increased or decreased using the plus key switch 523 and the minus key switch 524.
[0060] It is understandable that referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the driving module 100 includes:
[0061] The slide rail 110, the product fixing frame 200 can be slidably arranged on the slide rail 110;
[0062] A connecting rod 120, wherein a first end of the connecting rod 120 is connected to the product fixing frame 200;
[0063] a rotating disk 130 , the rotating disk 130 being connected to the second end of the connecting rod 120 ;
[0064] The motor is used to drive the turntable 130 to rotate, so as to push the product fixing rack 200 toward or away from the adapter plate 310 through the connecting rod 120 .
[0065] The turntable 130 , the connecting rod 120 and the slide rail 110 can ensure that the product fixing frame 200 moves in a straight line, and the motor drive can ensure the speed accuracy during plugging and unplugging, thereby further improving the effectiveness of verification.
[0066] It is understandable that the gold finger verification system of the solid state drive further includes a height adjustment component 600 , and the height adjustment component 600 is used to adjust the height of the interface fixing frame 320 .
[0067] By providing the height adjustment assembly 600 , it is possible to further ensure that the adapter plate 310 on the interface fixture 320 and the solid-state hard disk on the product fixture 200 are in the same straight line, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the test.
[0068] It is understandable that referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the height adjustment assembly 600 includes a supporting plate 610 and a height adjustment rod 620 . One side of the supporting plate 610 is movably connected to the height adjustment rod 620 , and the interface fixing frame 320 is disposed on the supporting plate 610 .
[0069] The supporting plate 610 and the height adjustment rod 620 can be fixed by screws or by snap fastening. Figure 2 As shown, one end of the height adjustment rod 620 is connected to the upper surface of the platform 500 .
[0070] It is understandable that referring to Figure 3 As shown, the gold finger verification system of the solid state drive further includes a temperature control box 700 , in which the interface fixing frame 320 , the product fixing frame 200 and the driving module 100 are all arranged.
[0071] Since SSDs are used by different groups, some in low-temperature environments in the north, others in higher-temperature environments in the south, and there are also foreign customers, and the climate is changeable, adding a temperature control box 700 to perform plug-in testing on the SSD can make the test data more reliable. In some embodiments, the temperature control box 700 can be set as a programmable test box. By adjusting the temperature inside the temperature control box 700, plug-in testing of the gold finger at different temperatures can be performed, thereby further ensuring the effectiveness of the gold finger verification. This embodiment of the application does not limit how the temperature of the temperature control box 700 is set.
[0072] For example, refer to Figure 2 The golden finger verification system of the embodiment of the present application is described. Figure 2 As shown, the gold finger verification system includes: a turntable 130 , a product fixing frame 200 , a slide rail 110 , an interface fixing bracket, an adapter plate 310 , a USB connection interface module, a control panel 510 and a machine 500 .
[0073] Machine 500 includes a counting circuit, a main control circuit, a power control circuit, a count setting button circuit, a rate control button circuit, an add button circuit, a subtract button circuit, and a drive motor. These control circuits are used to set the plugging and unplugging rate and count. A control panel 510 displays these settings (including the set plugging and unplugging count, rate, and remaining plugging and unplugging count). The power control circuit provides power to the main control circuit and drive motor.
[0074] The interface holder 320, the slide rail 110, and the product holder 200 are coaxially located. The interface holder 320 is positioned horizontally with the product holder 200 to ensure proper alignment of the gold fingers and the interface during insertion and removal. The interface holder 320 can be interchanged to accommodate different product board configurations. The motor-driven turntable 130 rotates, driving the product holder 200 back and forth on the slide rail 110 to facilitate insertion and removal. Each rotation of the turntable 130 records the number of insertions and removals.
[0075] A USB connection interface module is used to connect the adapter board 310 and the computer terminal 420 (such as a PC terminal). The PC terminal can use the adapter board 310 to perform abnormal detection of the gold finger during plugging and unplugging. Under normal circumstances, the PC terminal can connect to the adapter board 310 to identify and read the product information. If the reading is successful, the gold finger plugging and unplugging operation will continue until the set number of times is completed; if the reading fails, it is determined that the gold finger plugging and unplugging is abnormal. The PC terminal can issue an instruction to stop the rotation of the turntable 130 and record the number of completed plugging and unplugging. When the PC terminal is connected, the number of plugging and unplugging operations and the speed can also be set by the PC terminal settings or by key operations. In some embodiments, the PC terminal instructions take precedence. The PC terminal can issue instructions through the host computer to set the gold finger plugging and unplugging abnormality detection cycle, that is, the terminal can set the number of plugging and unplugging to complete before performing abnormal detection. It can be set according to actual conditions.
