[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 6 This application exemplarily provides a laptop computer plug-in / plug-out testing device, comprising:

[0030] Rack 1;

[0031] Test platform 2, set on rack 1, is used to place the laptop computer 3 to be tested;

[0032] The testing mechanism 4 is located on one side of the testing platform 2. The testing mechanism 4 includes a support base 6, a first movable base 5, a first adjustment component, a second adjustment component, and a testing connector 9. The first movable base 5 is located on the support base 6, and the testing connector 9 is located on the first movable base 5. The first adjustment component is used to drive the first movable base 5 to move vertically relative to the support base 6 so as to align the height of the testing connector 9 with the interface 35 of the laptop under test 3. The second adjustment component is used to drive the testing connector 9 to move horizontally so as to insert or withdraw the testing connector 9 into or out of the interface 35 of the laptop under test 3.

[0033] In the laptop computer insertion and removal testing device provided in this application, the laptop computer under test 3 is first placed on the test platform 2. The first adjusting component of the test mechanism 4 drives the first moving seat 5 to move in the vertical direction to align the height of the test connector 9 with the interface 35 of the laptop computer under test 3, ensuring that the test connector 9 can be smoothly inserted into the interface 35 for testing. Then, the second adjusting component drives the test connector 9 to move in the horizontal direction to insert or remove the test connector 9 from the interface 35 of the laptop computer under test 3, realizing automatic insertion and removal testing of the laptop computer 3, saving time and effort, effectively improving testing efficiency, and reducing labor costs.

[0034] In this embodiment, the first adjustment component includes an adjusting screw 8, a first slider 14, and an adjusting knob 11. The first slider 14 is connected to the first movable seat 5. The support seat 6 has an L-shaped structure. A first slide rail 13 is provided on the side wall of the support seat 6 in the vertical direction. The first slider 14 is engaged on the first slide rail 13. The adjusting screw 8 passes through the first slider 14. One end of the adjusting screw 8 is connected to the adjusting knob 11. By rotating the adjusting screw 8 through the adjusting knob 11, the first slider 14 is moved on the first slide rail 13. Specifically, the adjusting knob 11 can be located above the support seat 6. One end of the adjusting screw 8 extends from the top of the support seat and is connected to the adjusting knob 11. The first slider 14 has a threaded hole. The adjusting screw 8 passes through the first slider 14. By driving the adjusting screw 8 to rotate through the adjusting knob 11, the first slider 14 moves on the adjusting screw 8, thereby realizing the movement of the first slider 14 on the first slide rail 13, and thus realizing the movement of the first movable seat 5 relative to the support seat 6 in the vertical direction.

[0035] In the above embodiment, the other end of the adjusting screw 8 is passed through the support base 6. The adjusting screw 8 can rotate on the support base 6 along its own center line. The support base 6 is installed on the frame 1 through the magnetic base 7. The magnetic base 7 fixes the support base 6 on the frame 1, which enhances the structural stability of the testing mechanism. By rotating the adjusting knob 11, the adjusting screw 8 is driven to rotate on the support base 6, so as to realize the vertical movement of the first slider 14 on the adjusting screw 8.

[0036] It is understandable that, since the positions of the interfaces 35 of different laptops 3 are different and the horizontal height of the interfaces 35 is different, in this embodiment, one end of the adjusting screw 8 is connected to the adjusting knob 11. By rotating the adjusting screw 8 through the adjusting knob 11, the first slider 14 is moved on the first slide rail 13. The frame 1 is also equipped with a control center. In order to obtain accurate position parameters for the insertion and removal steps, the first moving seat 5 is manually adjusted through the adjusting knob 11 so that the test connector 9 is level with the interface 35 of the laptop 3 under test, thus completing the height alignment of the test connector 9 and the interface 35.

[0037] It is worth noting that existing laptop I / O interfaces include USB interfaces, network interfaces, etc. The test connector 9 is available in various configurations, such as USB connectors and network RJ45 connectors, to ensure that the test connector 9 can be compatible with different I / O interfaces.

[0038] In some embodiments, the second adjustment component includes a first drive member 16, a second slider 17, and a first mounting plate 18. A second slide rail 29 and the first drive member 16 are arranged horizontally on the first movable seat 5. The second slider 17 is engaged on the second slide rail 29. The first mounting plate 18 is connected to the second slider 17. The test connector 9 is connected to the side of the first mounting plate 18 near the test platform 2. The first drive member 16 drives the second slider 17 to move on the second slide rail 29, so as to drive the test connector 9 to insert or withdraw from the interface 35 of the laptop computer under test 3. Specifically, the first drive member 16 can be configured as a lead screw motor. The second slider 17 is connected to the lead screw of the lead screw motor. By rotating the lead screw motor, the second slider 17 is driven to move, so as to drive the first mounting plate 18 to move, thereby enabling the test connector 9 to move closer to the interface 35 to insert or move away from the interface 35 to withdraw.

[0039] In this embodiment, the laptop computer insertion / removal testing device further includes a paddle mechanism disposed on the first movable seat 5. The paddle mechanism includes a paddle 10, a second movable seat 15, a second driving member 19, a third slider 20, and a second mounting plate 22. The second movable seat 15 is provided with a third slide rail 21 and a second driving member 19 in the horizontal direction. The third slider 20 is engaged on the third slide rail 21. The second driving member 19 is used to drive the third slider 20 to move on the third slide rail 21. The second mounting plate 22 is connected to the third slider 20. The paddle 10 is connected to the side of the second mounting plate 22 near the test platform 2. Specifically, the second driving member 19 can be configured as a lead screw motor. The third slider 20 is connected to the lead screw of the lead screw motor. By rotating the lead screw motor, the third slider 20 is driven to move, thereby driving the second mounting plate 22 to move, thus realizing the movement of the paddle 10 in the horizontal direction.

[0040] In the above embodiment, the first movable seat 5 is provided with a fourth slide rail 25 and a third driving member 26 in the vertical direction. The second movable seat 15 is locked on the fourth slide rail 25. The third driving member 26 is connected to the second movable seat 15. The third driving member 26 can drive the second movable seat 15 to move on the fourth slide rail 25. Specifically, the third driving member 26 can be set as a cylinder. The second movable seat 15 is connected to the driving end 30 of the cylinder. The cylinder drives the second movable seat 15 to move on the fourth slide rail 25, so as to realize the movement of the paddle 10 in the vertical direction.

[0041] It should be noted that existing laptops mostly use a tray-type design for their USB and network interfaces. However, if manual testing is performed on these tray-type interfaces, the tray must be raised before the connection test, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also prone to operational errors and damage to the tray during repeated testing. In this embodiment, the first movable base 5 is also equipped with a limit knob 12. The limit knob 12 is used to limit the driving stroke of the third driving component 26. Specifically, the limit knob 12 is configured as an adjusting nut 27 and an adjusting bolt 28. The adjusting bolt 28 is located at the top of the movable base and blocks the drive end 30 of the cylinder. The adjusting nut 27 is used to tighten the adjusting bolt. 28. In the insertion and removal test of the lower tray interface 35, the second driving member 19 drives the paddle 10 to extend into the interface 35, and the paddle 10 contacts the bottom of the lower tray. Then, the third driving member 26 drives the paddle 10 to lift the lower tray upward. Since the lifting angle of the lower tray is different for different laptops 3, the distance between the adjusting bolt 28 and the driving end 30 of the cylinder is changed, and the adjusting nut 27 is tightened to limit the driving stroke of the driving end 30 of the cylinder. When the third driving member 26 drives the paddle 10 to lift the lower tray, the driving end 30 of the cylinder is blocked, thereby controlling the lifting angle of the paddle 10 and avoiding excessive lifting that could damage the lower tray, thus ensuring that the insertion and removal test is carried out normally.

[0042] In this embodiment, a sensor 23 is provided on one side of both the second slide rail 29 and the third slide rail 21, and there is a gap between the sensors 23 on the same side. A sensor plate 24 is provided on both the second slider 17 and the third slider 20. During the movement of the second slider 17 and the third slider 20, the sensor plate 24 passes through the sensor 23 to limit the stroke of the second slider 17 and the third slider 20. Specifically, the distance between the sensors 23 is the maximum stroke of the second slider 17 and the third slider 20. When the sensor plate 24 of the second slider 17 and the third slider 20 reaches the position of the corresponding sensor 23, the second slider 17 and the third slider 20 stop moving to prevent the movement of the slider from exceeding the limit and damaging the lead screw and the slide rail. At the same time, a force sensor 36 is provided between the second slider 17 and the first mounting plate 18. When the insertion and extraction force measured by the force sensor exceeds the set alarm force, the test connector 9 and the paddle piece 10 can stop their operation in time to prevent abnormal insertion and extraction during the insertion and extraction test, which could lead to damage to the internal structure of the interface 35.

[0043] In the above embodiment, one end of the paddle 10 is connected to the second mounting plate 22, and the other end is bent towards the test connector 9 to form a bent structure, and a paddle head parallel to the test connector 9 is formed at the end. In the insertion and removal test of the non-under-mounted laptop 3, there is no need to raise or lower the paddle. However, when the test connector 9 is a network RJ45 connector, for network RJ45 connectors with clips, when the test connector 9 is inserted into the network interface 35 of the laptop 3, the clip of the network RJ45 connector will engage with the network interface 35. When removing it, the clip needs to be unlocked before the test connector 9 can be removed. At this time, before the test connector 9 is adjusted in height and prepared to be inserted into the network interface 35, the paddle 10 is first driven downward by the third drive component 26, and then driven downward by the second drive component 19. The 10-paddle moves forward, extends into the network interface 35, and comes into contact with the lower support of the network interface 35. Then, the third drive 26 drives the 10-paddle to move upward to lift the lower support of the network interface 35. The first drive 16 then drives the network connector to move closer to the network interface 35 and insert it. When it is necessary to remove the connector from the interface 35, the second drive 19 drives the 10-paddle to move backward to above the network connector latch. The third drive 26 drives the 10-paddle to move downward, so that the paddle head presses down on the network connector latch to unlock it. Finally, the second drive 19 and the first drive 16 simultaneously drive the 10-paddle and the test connector 9 away from the network interface 35 to remove them, completing the insertion and removal test of the network interface 35.

[0044] Understandably, in order to achieve automatic insertion and removal testing, the insertion and removal testing device is also equipped with a control center. The control center records the position parameters of the test connector 9 and the position parameters of the pry bar 10 at different steps. In subsequent insertion and removal tests of the same type of laptop 3, it is only necessary to set the parameters such as the running speed, number of times, and dwell time of the test mechanism 4, and control the first drive component 16, the second drive component 19 and the third drive component 26 through the control center to achieve automatic insertion and removal testing of the laptop 3.

[0045] In some embodiments, the test platform 2 is provided with multiple limiting plates 31 around its perimeter. The limiting plates 31 enclose a workstation for placing the laptop computer 3 under test. Each limiting plate 31 is provided with a positioning component for positioning the laptop computer 3 under test in the workstation. Specifically, in the insertion and removal test of the laptop computer 3 with a bottom tray and the network crystal head with a snap-fit, the laptop computer 3 needs to be inverted on the test platform 2. The positioning component includes a positioning plate 32, an adjusting rod 33 and a guide rod 34. The adjusting rod 33 and the guide rod 34 are both parallel to each other on the same limiting plate 31 and are connected to the positioning plate 32. After the laptop computer 3 is placed in the workstation, the adjusting rod 33 drives the positioning plate 32 to approach the laptop computer 3, and cooperates with the limiting plate 31 on the opposite side to position and press the laptop computer 3 firmly in the workstation. The adjusting rod 33 can be driven manually or by a motor, which is not limited here.

[0046] In summary, in the laptop computer insertion and removal testing device provided in this application, the laptop computer under test 3 is first placed on the test platform 2. The first adjusting component of the test mechanism 4 drives the first moving seat 5 to move vertically so as to align the height of the test connector 9 with the interface 35 of the laptop computer under test 3, ensuring that the test connector 9 can be smoothly inserted into the interface 35 for testing. Then, the second adjusting component drives the test connector 9 to move horizontally so as to insert or remove the test connector 9 from the interface 35 of the laptop computer under test 3, thereby realizing automatic insertion and removal testing of the laptop computer 3, saving time and effort, effectively improving testing efficiency, and reducing labor costs.

[0047] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this application. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this application should still be covered by the claims of this application.
