Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of product testing technology, and in particular to a testing organization. Background Technology
[0002] Touch buttons are a common input method in consumer electronics. Users can operate devices via touch panels on these buttons, which trigger corresponding actions by sensing the user's finger movements. Modern household kitchen appliances, such as range hoods, disinfection cabinets, and steam ovens, all use touch buttons for control. As national and market demands for higher product quality and better user experiences, manufacturers need to test touch buttons after production to assess their performance, reliability, and lifespan.
[0003] To detect touch buttons, the most common method is currently manual finger triggering. However, this method is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to missed detections. To address this technical issue, Chinese invention patent application number CN201811433030.6 (publication number CN109342043A) discloses a touch button testing device. This device includes: a control center, at least one linkage mechanism, a guide rail, a parallel downward pressure plate, at least one pressing test device, and a worktable. One end of the linkage mechanism is connected to the drive device of the control center, and the other end is connected to the parallel downward pressure plate. The guide rail is positioned between the control center and the worktable. The parallel downward pressure plate is nested on the guide rail. The pressing test device is mounted on the parallel downward pressure plate and includes a conductive silicone test contact.
[0004] Although this touch button testing device can automate the testing of multiple touch buttons simultaneously, the fixed position of the conductive silicone test contacts prevents testing of different touch button models, thus reducing the device's flexibility and practicality. Therefore, further improvements to the existing technology are necessary. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a testing mechanism that can change its position according to testing needs, thereby improving the flexibility and practicality of testing, in light of the above-mentioned prior art.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is: a testing mechanism, comprising:

[0012] To enable the installation mechanism to be positioned adjustable, preferably, a slide groove is provided on the worktable, and the installation mechanism includes a slider that can be slidably disposed in the slide groove.
[0013] There are many types of structures for the above-mentioned installation mechanism. Preferably, the installation mechanism further includes a fixed seat, an insert block, and a first fastener.

The limiting member is disposed outside the box, and the exposed end of the support frame is connected to the limiting member. A third threaded hole is provided on the box, and the second fastener is sequentially threaded to the third threaded hole and the support frame.
[0015] To improve the stability of the support frame movement, preferably, the support frame is U-shaped, and includes two opposing horizontal parts and a vertical part connecting the two horizontal parts.

[0020] Preferably, the workpiece to be tested is a touch button, and the trigger is a trigger switch that can contact the touch button.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: By setting up an installation mechanism that is detachably connected to the trigger and a limiting mechanism connected to the trigger, on the one hand, the installation mechanism is constrained on the worktable in an adjustable manner, and the limiting mechanism can adjust its position on the worktable with the help of the trigger and follow the installation mechanism.

[0026] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0027] like Figures 1-4As shown, the detection mechanism in this embodiment includes a worktable 1, a trigger 2, a mounting mechanism 3, and a limiting mechanism 4. The worktable 1 is used to place the workpiece to be detected; the trigger 2 is used to trigger the workpiece to be detected; the mounting mechanism 3 is detachably connected to the trigger 2, and the mounting mechanism 3 is constrained on the worktable 1 in an adjustable manner; the limiting mechanism 4 is connected to the trigger 2, and the limiting mechanism 4 has a limiting element 40. The limiting mechanism 4 is configured to adjust its position on the worktable 1 by means of the trigger 2 and the mounting mechanism 3, and to fix the position of the trigger 2 by the limiting element 40 abutting against the worktable 1. The workpiece to be detected in this embodiment includes, but is not limited to, touch buttons, and can also be other workpieces that need to be triggered for detection in the prior art; the trigger 2 is a trigger switch that can contact the touch button. This trigger switch uses an electromagnet push rod telescopic pull-in switch, which is prior art. The trigger 2 only triggers the workpiece to be detected, but the detection device for the workpiece is not shown. In this embodiment, the detection device can use existing technology, which will not be elaborated further here.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the limiting member 40 in this embodiment is plate-shaped, and the limiting member 40 has anti-slip texture on the side wall near the worktable 1.
[0029] To improve detection efficiency, such as Figure 1 As shown, the workbench 1 in this embodiment is long and narrow, and there are multiple triggers 2, which are spaced apart along the length of the workbench 1. Each trigger 2 is connected to a mounting mechanism 3 and a limiting mechanism 4.
[0030] The worktable 1 is also equipped with a clamping mechanism, which includes a first clamp 51 and a second clamp 52 respectively located at both ends of the worktable 1. A clamping space 50 for clamping the workpiece to be inspected is formed between the first clamp 51 and the second clamp 52. Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, both the first clamp 51 and the second clamp 52 are U-shaped clamps, and the openings of the two U-shaped clamps are arranged opposite to each other.
[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the mounting mechanism 3 includes a slider 31, a fixed base 32, an insert (not shown in the figure), and a first fastener 34. A groove 11 is provided on the worktable 1, and the slider 31 is slidably disposed within the groove 11. The fixed base 32 is fixedly connected to the slider 31. The fixed base 32 has a chamber 320 opening towards the trigger 2. The insert is disposed within the chamber 320 and fixedly connected to the trigger 2. The fixed base 32 and the insert are respectively provided with a first threaded hole (not shown in the figure) and a second threaded hole (not shown in the figure). The first fastener 34 is sequentially threaded into the first threaded hole and the second threaded hole. In this embodiment, the first fastener 34 is a bolt, and the end of the bolt is provided with a first torque sleeve 340.
[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the limiting mechanism 4 also includes an internally hollow housing 41, a support frame 42, and a second fastener 43. The support frame 42 is located inside the housing 41, and the housing wall of the housing 41 has a through hole 411 for the support frame 42 to extend at least partially. The limiting member 40 is located outside the housing 41, and the exposed end of the support frame 42 is connected to the limiting member 40. A third threaded hole (not shown in the figure) is provided on the housing 41, and the second fastener 43 is sequentially threaded to the third threaded hole and the support frame 42. Figure 3 As shown, the support frame 42 in this embodiment is U-shaped. The support frame 42 includes two opposing horizontal portions 421 and a vertical portion 422 connecting the two horizontal portions 421. The box wall of the housing 41 has two through holes 411, each for the corresponding horizontal portion 421 to extend out. The second fastener 43 is threadedly connected to the vertical portion 422. In this embodiment, the second fastener 43 is also a bolt, and the end of the bolt is provided with a second torque sleeve 430. The through holes 411 in this embodiment are square.
[0033] In addition, the housing 41 is provided with a limiting shaft 44 extending along the moving direction of the support frame 42, and the support frame 42 is provided with a limiting block 45, and the limiting block 45 is provided with a through hole 451 for sliding connection of the limiting shaft 44.
[0034] The working process of the testing mechanism in this embodiment is as follows:
[0035] The workpiece to be inspected is placed in the clamping space 50 and clamped by the first clamp and the second clamp.
[0036] Place the plug connected to the trigger 2 into the fixed base 32, twist the first twist sleeve 340, and thread the top of the first fastener 34 to the plug, thus realizing the installation of the trigger 2; at this time, the trigger 2 can be pushed to move, and the slider 31 can slide in the slide groove 11, thereby realizing the purpose of adjusting the detection position of the trigger 2;
[0037] Once the trigger 2 is adjusted to the appropriate position, the second twist sleeve 430 can be twisted to rotate the second fastener 43. Since the second fastener 43 and the support frame 42 are threadedly connected, the support frame 42 will cause the limiting member 40 to move closer to the worktable 1, so that the limiting member 40 can press and limit the worktable 1, thereby fixing the trigger 2. This allows the trigger 2 to be used for testing different workpieces, enhancing the flexibility of the device and making it easier for operators to use.
[0038] When the position of the trigger 2 needs to be adjusted again, the second twist sleeve 430 is twisted in the opposite direction, which drives the second fastener 43 to rotate. This causes the support frame 42 to move the limiting member 40 away from the worktable 1. The limiting member 40 no longer presses and limits the worktable 1, and the trigger 2 can be pushed to move.
[0039] When it is necessary to disassemble the trigger 2, the first twist sleeve 340 can be twisted in the opposite direction to unscrew the first fastener 34 from the inside of the insert block, thereby removing the limit on the insert block. At this time, the insert block can be pulled out from the inside of the fixed seat 32, thus disassembling the trigger 2. This facilitates the disassembly and maintenance of the trigger 2 and reduces the time spent by the staff during the disassembly and maintenance process.
[0040] In the specification and claims of this utility model, terms indicating direction, such as "front," "rear," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "side," "top," and "bottom," are used to describe various exemplary structural parts and elements of this utility model. However, the use of these terms is merely for the purpose of explanation and is based on the exemplary orientations shown in the accompanying drawings. Since the embodiments disclosed in this utility model can be arranged in different orientations, these terms indicating direction are for illustrative purposes only and should not be regarded as limitations. For example, "upper" and "lower" are not necessarily limited to directions opposite to or consistent with the direction of gravity.
