[0110] The present disclosure will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0111] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features described in this disclosure can be combined with each other. The technical solutions of this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0112] Unless otherwise stated, the exemplary implementations / embodiments shown are to be understood as providing exemplary features of various details that provide ways in which the technical concepts of this disclosure can be implemented in practice. Therefore, unless otherwise stated, the features of various implementations / embodiments may be additionally combined, separated, interchanged and / or rearranged without departing from the technical concepts of this disclosure.
[0113] The use of crosshairs and / or shading in the accompanying drawings is generally used to clarify the boundaries between adjacent components. Thus, unless otherwise stated, the presence or absence of crosshairs or shading does not convey or indicate any preference or requirement for the specific material, material properties, dimensions, proportions, commonalities between the illustrated components, or any other characteristics, properties, etc., of the components. Furthermore, in the accompanying drawings, the dimensions and relative dimensions of components may be exaggerated for clarity and / or descriptive purposes. When exemplary embodiments can be implemented differently, a specific process sequence may be performed in a different order than that described. For example, two consecutively described processes may be performed substantially simultaneously or in the reverse order of their description. Furthermore, the same reference numerals denote the same components.
[0114] When a component is referred to as being "on" or "above" another component, "connected to," or "joined to" another component, the component may be directly on, directly connected to, or directly joined to the other component, or there may be intermediate components. However, when a component is referred to as being "directly on" another component, "directly connected to," or "directly joined to" another component, there are no intermediate components. Therefore, the term "connection" can refer to a physical connection, an electrical connection, etc., and may or may not have intermediate components.
[0115] For descriptive purposes, this disclosure may use spatial relative terms such as “below,” “under,” “below,” “down,” “above,” “above,” “higher,” and “side (e.g., in a “sidewall”)” to describe the relationship between one component and another component as shown in the accompanying drawings. In addition to the orientations depicted in the drawings, the spatial relative terms are also intended to encompass different orientations of the device during use, operation, and / or manufacture. For example, if the device in the drawings is flipped, a component described as “below” or “under” another component or feature would subsequently be positioned “above” said other component or feature. Thus, the exemplary term “below” can encompass both “above” and “below” orientations. Furthermore, the device may be otherwise positioned (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), thus interpreting the spatial relative descriptive terms used herein accordingly.
[0116] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments and is not intended to be limiting. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms “a” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well. Furthermore, when the terms “comprising” and / or “including” and variations thereof are used in this specification, it indicates the presence of the stated features, integrals, steps, operations, parts, components, and / or groups thereof, but does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integrals, steps, operations, parts, components, and / or groups thereof. It should also be noted that, as used herein, the terms “substantially,” “about,” and other similar terms are used as approximate terms rather than as terms of degree, thus explaining the inherent biases in measurements, calculated values, and / or provided values that would be recognized by one of ordinary skill in the art.
[0117] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a product testing system according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0118] like Figure 1 As shown, the product testing system of this disclosure can test the buttons of a product during use. Specifically, the product testing system of this disclosure tests whether the product functions properly by pressing and triggering the buttons. In one embodiment, the buttons of the product may include a power button and other function buttons.
[0119] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the product testing system disclosed herein may include components such as a suction device 100 and a testing device 200.
[0120] by Figure 1As shown in the diagram, when using the product testing system of this disclosure, since the product is placed horizontally in the tray, the initial orientation of the suction device 100 can be as follows: Figure 1 As shown, at this time, the suction device 100 will be driven by a robotic arm to suction the product and hold the product.
[0121] The initial attitude of the test device 200 can be as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the product will be held in a horizontal or approximately horizontal position in the testing device 200. Alternatively, the initial posture of the testing device 200 can also be other postures, such as holding the product in a vertical or approximately vertical position. In this case, after the suction device 100 picks up and holds the product, the robotic arm can drive the suction device 100 to change its posture and transfer the product to the testing device.
[0122] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the suction device of a product testing system according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0123] like Figure 2 As shown, the suction device 100 of this disclosure may include components such as a first mounting plate 110, a side plate 120, a support assembly 130, a suction cup 140, and a first driving device 150.
[0124] The first mounting plate 110 has a generally flat structure. When the product testing system of this disclosure is used, the first mounting plate 110 can be fixed to the end of a robotic arm, and the robotic arm can drive the first mounting plate 110 to change position and orientation. In a specific embodiment, the robotic arm can be a multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arm, thereby enabling the suction device 100 of this disclosure to easily reach a preset position.
[0125] One end (e.g., the upper end) of the side plate 120 is mounted to the first mounting plate 110; in a preferred embodiment, the side plate 120 is provided as two, which are located at the two ends of the length direction of the first mounting plate 110 respectively, and are configured to be perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the first mounting plate 110.
[0126] The support assembly 130 is slidably disposed on the side plate 120 and is capable of sliding relative to the side plate 120 to approach or move away from the first mounting plate 110. Specifically, the inner side of the side plate 120 of this disclosure may be provided with a first guide rail, which may be arranged vertically. The support assembly 130 is provided with a first slider, which is slidably disposed on the first guide rail, thereby allowing the support assembly 130 to slide relative to the side plate 120 and approach or move away from the first mounting plate 110. In other words, with Figure 1As shown in the direction, the support component 130 of this disclosure can generate a lifting motion.
[0127] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support assembly 130 of this disclosure includes components such as a first support member 131, a second support member 132, and a connecting rod 133.
[0128] The first support member 131 is provided with a first slider, which is slidably mounted on a first guide rail, so that the first support member 131 can be slidably mounted on a side plate 120. Similarly, the second support member 132 can be provided with another first slider, which is slidably mounted on another first guide rail, so that the second support member 132 can be slidably mounted on another side plate 120.
[0129] The connecting rod 133 is connected to the first support member 131 and the second support member 132, and is also connected to the first drive device 150. Thus, through the setting of the connecting rod 133, the first support member 131, the second support member 132 and the connecting rod 133 can synchronously generate lifting and lowering movements.
[0130] Specifically, the first drive device 150 is used to drive the support assembly 130 to move, so that the support assembly 130 approaches or moves away from the first mounting plate 110. For example, the first drive device 150 can be a cylinder, the cylinder body of which can be fixed on the side plate 120, and the piston rod of which can be fixed to the connecting rod 133. Thus, when the first drive device 150 is activated, it can drive the first support member 131 and the second support member 132 to produce lifting and lowering movements through the connecting rod 133.
[0131] Figure 3 This is a structural schematic diagram of the first support member according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4 This is a cross-sectional structural schematic diagram of the first support member according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0132] The first support member 131 and the second support member 132 of this disclosure are formed with the same structure. The following description only uses the first support member 131 as an example.
[0133] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first support member 131 includes components such as a first component 131A, a second component 131B, and a connector 131C.
[0134] Specifically, the first component 131A of this disclosure is connected to the connecting rod 133; the second component 131B is set at a preset distance from the first component 131A, wherein the second component 131B is connected to the first component 131A through the connector 131C; thus, the first component 131A, the second component 131B and the connector 131C of this disclosure can together form a receiving space, and the components such as the first pressure sensor 138 and the first spring 137 described below can be placed in the receiving space.
[0135] Although the first support member 131 of this disclosure is described by three technical features (first component 131A, second component 131B and connector 131C), this does not mean that the first support member 131 is obtained by assembling multiple separate components. On the contrary, the first support member 131 of this disclosure is formed as a whole, that is, the first support member 131 of this disclosure is integrally formed.
[0136] See again Figure 4 The second component 131B of this disclosure has a mounting hole, in which a linear bearing 134 is disposed. A sliding rod 135 is disposed in the linear bearing 134 (i.e., the sliding rod 135 is slidably disposed in the linear bearing 134). A limiting component 136 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sliding rod 135 to limit the maximum downward stroke of the sliding rod 135. An outer flange is formed in the middle of the limiting component 136 of this disclosure. The outer flange can cooperate with the periphery of the mounting hole of the second component 131B or with the upper end of the linear bearing 134 and be limited by the second component 131B or by the linear bearing 134.
[0137] Additionally, the lower end of the first spring 137 is disposed in the limiting member 136 (for example, the upper end of the limiting member 136 can be inserted into the central hole of the first spring 137, so that the lower end of the first spring 137 contacts the outer flange), and the upper end of the first spring 137 is connected to the first pressure sensor 138, which contacts the lower surface of the first member 131A. Moreover, the first spring 137 can be in a pre-compressed state.
[0138] A suction cup 140 is provided at the lower end of the sliding rod 135, so that the axial force of the suction cup 140 in contact with the product can be transmitted to the first pressure sensor 138 to prevent the suction cup 140 from applying excessive positive pressure to the product and damaging it.
[0139] In a preferred embodiment, the suction device 100 further includes a first clamping device 160, which is fixed to the first mounting plate 110 and used to clamp the product. That is, after the suction cup 140 sucks up the product, the first clamping device 160 can clamp the product to keep it stably in place. The first clamping device 160 of this disclosure can be implemented using a gripper cylinder and two grippers driven by the gripper cylinder, which will not be described in detail here.
[0140] Figure 5 This is a structural schematic diagram of the suction device according to one embodiment of the present disclosure from another angle.
[0141] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the suction device 100 of this disclosure also includes a touch detection component 170, which can be used to test the touch function of the screen of a product. Specifically, the touch detection component 170 may include components such as a first bracket 171, a second pressure sensor 172, a second spring 173, and a touch rod 174. The first bracket 171 is fixed to the first mounting plate 110, and the touch rod 174 is slidably mounted on the first bracket 171. The second pressure sensor 172 is provided at one end of the touch rod 174 to detect the contact force between the touch rod 174 and the screen of the product under test, so as to prevent the touch rod 174 from applying too much pressure to the screen and causing damage to the screen.
[0142] In this disclosure, the touch lever 174 can be set approximately horizontally; that is, when the suction device 100 holds the product, the movement direction of the touch lever 174 can be parallel to the product's screen. When the product is held by the testing device 200, if the testing device 200 changes its position and makes the product approximately vertical, the touch lever 174 can directly operate the product's screen. On the other hand, if the testing device 200 does not change its position and the product is approximately horizontal, the suction device 100 needs to change its position and change the movement direction of the touch lever 174 to a vertical direction before operating the touch lever 174 to operate and test the screen.
[0143] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 As shown, the first bracket 171 includes components such as a first plate component 171A, a second plate component 171B, and a connecting plate component 171C.
[0144] Specifically, the first plate component 171A of this disclosure is connected to the first mounting plate 110; the second plate component 171B is disposed at a predetermined distance from the first plate component 171A, wherein the second plate component 171B is connected to the first plate component 171A through the connecting plate component 171C; thereby, the first plate component 171A, the second plate component 171B and the connecting plate component 171C of this disclosure can together form a receiving space, and the components such as the second pressure sensor 172 and the second spring 173 described below can be disposed in the receiving space.
[0145] Although the first bracket 171 of this disclosure is described by three technical features (first plate component 171A, second plate component 171B and connecting plate component 171C), this does not mean that the first bracket 171 is obtained by assembling multiple discrete components. On the contrary, the first bracket 171 of this disclosure is formed as a whole, that is, the first bracket 171 of this disclosure is integrally formed.
[0146] See again Figure 5 The second plate component 171B of this disclosure has a mounting hole, in which a linear bearing is disposed, and a touch rod 174 is disposed within the linear bearing, i.e., the touch rod 174 is slidably disposed within the linear bearing. A limiting component is fixedly connected to one end of the touch rod 174 to limit the maximum stroke of the touch rod 174 (e.g., ...). Figure 5 (The maximum stroke of movement to the right shown); the limiting component of this disclosure includes an outer flange that can mate with the periphery of the mounting hole of the second plate component 171B or with one end of the linear bearing, and is limited by the second plate component 171B or by the linear bearing.
[0147] In addition, one end of the second spring 173 is disposed on the limiting member, and the other end of the second spring 173 is connected to the second pressure sensor 172. The second pressure sensor 172 is in contact with the surface of the first plate member 171A and is fixed to the first plate member 171A. Moreover, the second spring 173 can be in a pre-compressed state.
[0148] Furthermore, the other end of the touch stick 174 is equipped with a stylus tip (silicone stylus tip), thereby enabling the testing of the product's screen through contact between the stylus tip and the screen. In other words, the other end of the touch stick 174 disclosed herein can be used to test the product's screen.
[0149] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a test apparatus according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 7 This is a structural schematic diagram of a test apparatus according to one embodiment of the present disclosure from another angle. Figure 8 This is a structural schematic diagram of a test apparatus according to one embodiment of the present disclosure from another angle.
[0150] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the testing apparatus 200 of this disclosure is used to receive the product picked up by the suction device 100 and hold the product. Accordingly, the testing apparatus 200 is capable of testing the product held therein.
[0151] Specifically, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the test apparatus 200 disclosed herein may include components such as a second mounting plate 210, a second clamping device 220, a second driving device 230, and test components.
[0152] In use, the testing device 200 of this disclosed testing system can be fixed to another robotic arm, thereby allowing the testing device 200 and the suction device 100 to be driven by different robotic arms and positioned in various desired positions. In other words, the movement of the testing device 200 and the suction device 100 of this disclosed system will not interfere with each other.
[0153] The second clamping device 220 is fixed to the second mounting plate 210 and is used to clamp the product. In one specific embodiment, the second clamping device 220 may include a fixed gripper and a movable gripper. The fixed gripper is fixed to the second mounting plate 210, and the movable gripper can be driven by a clamping drive device disposed on the second mounting plate 210 to move closer to or away from the fixed gripper, thereby realizing the clamping and release of the product. In a preferred embodiment, the clamping drive device may be a cylinder. The second mounting plate 210 is provided with a second guide rail, and a second slider is slidably disposed on the second guide rail. The movable gripper is fixed to the second slider, thereby enabling the movable gripper to slide relative to the second mounting plate 210 and to move closer to or away from the fixed gripper.
[0154] The second drive device 230 is disposed on the second mounting plate 210 and is used to drive the test component to approach or move away from the product, and to test the buttons of the product when the test component approaches or moves away from the product.
[0155] The number of test components disclosed herein can vary depending on the number of buttons on the product. Specifically, such as... Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the test components of this disclosure are configured as two, and correspondingly, the second drive device 230 is configured as two, each of the second drive devices 230 driving one test component to move.
[0156] Specifically, such as Figure 7As shown, the test components of this disclosure may include a first test component 240 and a second test component 250; correspondingly, the first test component 240 can be driven by a second drive device 230, which can be a slide table electric cylinder. Thus, the first test component 240 is directly mounted on the slide table electric cylinder, which enables it to approach or move away from the product.
[0157] Specifically, the first test component 240 of this disclosure may include a drive plate 241 and a support base 242, wherein the drive plate 241 is disposed on the slide cylinder and can be driven by the slide cylinder. The support base 242 is disposed on the drive plate 241 and is L-shaped. The support base 242 has mounting holes, and in one specific embodiment, the number of mounting holes may be two. Each mounting hole is provided with a sliding bearing, and the rod component 243 is slidably disposed in the sliding bearing; wherein, a pressure block 244 is installed at one end of the rod component 243, and the pressure block 244 may be a sensing pressure block for testing the touch buttons of the product through the sensing pressure block 244. In one specific embodiment, the sensing pressure block may be made of silicone material (e.g., the material used to make silicone pen tips).
[0158] The other end of the rod component 243 is fixed to the base component 245. One end of the third spring 246 is disposed on the base component 245, and the other end of the third spring 246 is provided with a third pressure sensor 247. The third pressure sensor 247 is in contact with and fixed to the drive plate 241. Thus, when the slide cylinder moves, it can drive the rod component 243 to slide within the linear bearing, causing the pressure block 244 to approach or move away from the product, thereby testing the product's buttons. In a specific embodiment, due to the setting of the third pressure sensor 247, when the third pressure sensor 247 detects pressure, that is, when the pressure block 244 contacts the button, it controls the slide cylinder to move slowly forward and continue to move about 0.5mm, thereby enabling the testing of the product's touch buttons.
[0159] See again Figure 7 The second mounting plate 210 of this disclosure is provided with a third guide rail, on which a third slider is slidably disposed. The second test component 250 can be fixed to the third slider, thereby enabling the second test component 250 to move closer to or further away from the product. Correspondingly, the second test component 250 can be driven and moved by another second drive device 230, which can be a cylinder.
[0160] Specifically, such as Figure 7As shown, the second test assembly 250 of this disclosure may include components such as a second bracket 251, a fourth pressure sensor 252, a fourth spring 253, and a test rod 254. The second bracket 251 is fixed to the third slider, and the test rod 254 is slidably mounted on the second bracket 251. A fourth pressure sensor 252 is provided at one end of the test rod 254 to detect the contact force between the test rod 254 and the button of the product under test, so as to prevent the test rod 254 from applying too much pressure to the button, which would damage the product.
[0161] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 As shown, the second bracket 251 includes components such as a first plate 251A, a second plate 251B, and a connecting plate 251C.
[0162] Specifically, the second plate 251B is set at a preset distance from the first plate 251A, wherein the second plate 251B is connected to the first plate 251A through a connecting plate 251C; the connecting plate 251C is fixed to the third slider; thus, the first plate 251A, the second plate 251B and the connecting plate 251C of this disclosure can together form a receiving space, and the components such as the fourth pressure sensor 252 and the fourth spring 253 described below can be placed in this receiving space.
[0163] Although the second support 251 of this disclosure is described by three technical features (first plate 251A, second plate 251B and connecting plate 251C), this does not mean that the second support 251 is obtained by assembling multiple discrete parts. On the contrary, the second support 251 of this disclosure is formed as a whole, that is, the second support 251 of this disclosure is integrally formed.
[0164] See again Figure 7 The second plate 251B of this disclosure has a mounting hole, in which a linear bearing is disposed. A test rod 254 is disposed within the linear bearing and is slidably mounted therein. A limiting component is fixedly connected to one end of the test rod 254 to limit the maximum stroke of the test rod 254. The limiting component includes an outer flange, which can mate with the periphery of the mounting hole of the second plate 251B or with one end of the linear bearing, and is limited by the second plate 251B or by the linear bearing.
[0165] In addition, one end of the fourth spring 253 is disposed on the limiting component, and the other end of the fourth spring 253 is connected to the fourth pressure sensor 252, which is in contact with the surface of the first plate 251A. Moreover, the fourth spring 253 can be in a pre-compressed state.
[0166] Therefore, the other end of the test rod 254 disclosed herein can contact the button of the product and apply pressure to the button, thereby detecting whether the button functions properly.
[0167] In a preferred embodiment, the testing device 200 further includes a camera 260, which is used to photograph the product and control the posture of the suction device 100 based on the image captured by the camera 260, so that the suction device 100 can position the product while suctioning it.
[0168] In current mobile phone testing technology, approximately six products are placed on a material tray, requiring workers to move ten trays of materials at a time, which is a significant physical burden. During the testing process, workers need to remove the phones from the trays and operate them using a specified posture. First, the phone needs to be held upright, then the screen needs to be tapped, followed by the buttons in sequence, repeated three times. If any step is incorrect, the process must be restarted. This multi-step process is time-consuming, resulting in high labor intensity, low production efficiency, and the potential for product damage during manual handling, leading to increased product failure rates and low production capacity.
[0169] The testing system disclosed herein can accurately position products during use, thereby improving the yield rate of tested products. Furthermore, since products to be tested (such as mobile phones) are randomly placed in the tray, the testing time will increase when effective product positioning is not possible. Therefore, the testing system disclosed herein also improves product testing efficiency and solves the problem of high manual labor intensity.
[0170] In addition, during the testing of a mobile phone, after the suction device and the testing device exchange the mobile phone, the touch bar of the suction device can be used to light up the mobile phone screen, and then the testing rod and the pressure block will move to test different buttons.
