Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of electronic equipment testing technology, and in particular to a testing device. Background Technology
[0002] Electronic devices (such as laptops) all have buttons that users can operate. To ensure that the buttons on the keyboard can trigger their functions properly after being pressed, each button on the keyboard usually needs to be tested for pressability. The button's qualification is determined by whether the function is triggered after being pressed. When the button is pressed, its function is triggered, so the button is qualified. When the button is pressed, its function is triggered, so the button is unqualified. In the current testing process, the buttons are tested by the operator pressing them by hand. However, because the size of each person's fingers and the pressure applied vary, the accuracy of the pressability test is poor. Utility Model Content
[0003] This disclosure provides a testing apparatus to at least address the aforementioned problems in the prior art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this disclosure provides the following technical solution: a testing device for pressing and testing a button, comprising:
[0005] The support member has a receiving cavity that extends through the support member;
[0006] The test assembly includes a toggle and a load member with a predetermined weight. The toggle is movably housed within a receiving cavity and serves to support the load member. The toggle is configured with a sliding cavity communicating with the receiving cavity. A portion of the load member is slidably housed within the sliding cavity, and another portion of the load member extends out of the sliding cavity and serves to abut against the button. A support member is placed above the button. When the toggle is moved a predetermined distance toward the button by an external force, the weight of the load member is transferred from the toggle to the button.
[0007] In one possible implementation, the actuating element includes:
[0008] The movable body is movably housed within the receiving cavity and is provided with a sliding cavity communicating with the receiving cavity;
[0009] A prying body is connected to one end of the movable body and extends out of the receiving cavity;
[0010] An elastic body is disposed within the receiving cavity, with one end of the elastic body abutting against the end of the actuating body facing the movable body, and the other end of the elastic body abutting against the support member. The elastic force released by the elastic body is used to drive the actuating body to reset.
[0011] In one possible embodiment, the support member includes:
[0012] The support body has the receiving cavity, which extends through the support member;
[0013] A limiting ring is disposed within the receiving cavity, and the outer peripheral wall of the limiting ring is connected to the inner peripheral wall of the receiving cavity and is used to stop the actuating body. The other end of the elastic body abuts against the limiting ring, and the movable body is movably inserted through the limiting ring.
[0014] In one possible implementation, the active body includes:
[0015] A connecting post is movably inserted through the limiting ring, and one end of the connecting post is connected to the actuating body;
[0016] The movable part is connected to the other end of the connecting column and has the sliding cavity provided therein;
[0017] A stop ring is disposed in the sliding cavity and connected to the end of the movable part away from the connecting post. The stop ring is used to support the load-bearing component.
[0018] In one embodiment, the stop ring is detachably connected to the movable body.
[0019] In one embodiment, the stop ring and the movable body are connected by a thread.
[0020] In one embodiment, the load-bearing member includes:
[0021] The load-bearing body is configured with a preset weight;
[0022] A sliding body is slidably connected within the sliding cavity, and the sliding body is used to bear the load.
[0023] A support body, one end of which is connected to the sliding body, and the other end of which extends out of the sliding cavity and is used to support the button.
[0024] In one embodiment, the sliding body has a bearing groove on the side facing away from the supporting body, and the load body is housed in the bearing groove.
[0025] In one possible implementation, the test component is positioned opposite one corner of the button to test whether the function can be triggered at the corner of the button when pressed.
[0026] In one implementable embodiment, the number of the accommodation cavities is the same as that of the test components and is four. Each test component is accommodated in a corresponding accommodation cavity and corresponds to one end corner of the key.
[0027] In the above test device, first place the support member above the key to be tested and make the key to be tested located in the accommodation cavity. Then, upwardly拨动 the拨动 member by an external force to drive the load member to move upward. Next, downwardly拨动 the downward拨动 member by an external force to move to a preset distance, so that the load member with a predetermined weight moves downward under the action of its own gravity to abut against and press the key. When the function of the key is triggered, it indicates that the key is qualified. When the function of the key is not triggered, it indicates that the key is not triggered. Thus, by using the gravity of the load member with a predetermined weight to press the key, the pressure applied to the key is made more stable, so as to improve the test accuracy of the key. At the same time, after first placing the support member above the key and then downwardly拨动 the拨动 member by an external force until the gravity of the load member is transferred to be applied to the key, the impact force of the load member pressing the key is smaller, which is beneficial to further improving the test accuracy of the key.

[0039] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this disclosure, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0040] The embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0041] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a testing device for pressing and testing whether the function of a key can be triggered. The testing device includes a support member 11 and a testing component 12. The support member 11 is provided with a receiving cavity 111 that penetrates through the support member 11. Specifically, the support member 11 is a tubular structure, and the cross-section of the support tube 11 is rectangular and adapted to the key to be tested. The testing component 12 includes a拨动件 121 and a weight member 122 with a predetermined weight. The拨动件 121 is movably received in the receiving cavity 111 and is used to carry the weight member 122. The拨动件 121 is configured with a sliding cavity 1214 communicating with the receiving cavity 111. A part of the weight member 122 is slidably received in the sliding cavity 1214. The sliding direction of the weight member 122 is the direction of gravity. Another part of the weight member 122 extends out of the sliding cavity 1214 and is used to abut against the key. The support member 11 is placed above the key. When the拨动件 121 is driven by an external force to move a preset distance in the direction towards the key, the gravity of the weight member 122 is transferred from being applied to the拨动件 121 to being applied to the key.
[0042] In the above testing device, first place the support member 11 above the key to be tested and make the key to be tested located in the receiving cavity 111. Then, use an external force to拨动 the拨动件 121 upwards and带动 the weight member 122 to move upwards. Next, use an external force to press the拨动件 121 downwards to a preset distance, so that the weight member 122 with a predetermined weight moves downwards under the action of its own gravity to abut against and press the key. When the function of the key is triggered, it means the key is qualified. When the function of the key is not triggered, it means the key is not triggered. Thus, by using the gravity of the weight member 122 with a predetermined weight to press the key, the pressure applied to the key is made more stable, which is convenient for improving the testing accuracy of the key. At the same time, after first placing the support member 11 above the key and then using an external force to拨动 the拨动件 121 downwards until the gravity of the weight member 122 is transferred to be applied to the key, the impact force of the weight member 122 pressing the key is smaller, which is beneficial to further improving the testing accuracy of the key.
[0043] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 It should be noted that there is an unclear term "拨动件" in the original text. You may need to check and clarify this term for a more accurate translation.In some embodiments, the actuating element 121 includes a movable body 1211, an actuating body 1212, and an elastic body 1213. The movable body 1211 is movably housed within a receiving cavity 111 and is provided with a sliding cavity 1214 communicating with the receiving cavity 111. The movable body 1211 also supports a load-bearing component 122. The actuating body 1212 is connected to one end of the movable body 1211 and extends out of the receiving cavity 111. The elastic body 1213 is disposed within the receiving cavity 111, with one end of the elastic body 1213 abutting against the end of the actuating body 1212 facing the movable body 1211, and the other end of the elastic body 1213 abutting against a support member 11. The elastic force released by the elastic body 1213 is used to drive the actuating body 1212 to reset. For example, the elastic body 1213 can be a spring.
[0044] During operation, the toggle body 1212 is pressed down by external force to move it to a preset distance. The toggle body 1212 compresses the elastic body 1213 to produce elastic deformation, and causes the load member 122 to move downward until the weight of the load member 122 is transferred from the movable body 1211 to the button. Then the external force is removed, and the deformed elastic body 1213 releases its elastic force and drives the toggle body 1212 and the load member 122 to reset. The weight of the load member 122 is transferred from the button to the movable body 1211. Finally, the button is judged to be qualified by whether the function is triggered. When the function is triggered, the button is qualified. When the function is not triggered, the button is unqualified.
[0045] Thus, the elastic force released by the elastic body 1213 drives the toggle body 1212 and the load member 122 to automatically reset, eliminating the need for manual upward movement of the toggle body 1212. This saves time and effort and is convenient and quick to operate, which helps improve detection efficiency. At the same time, the elastic body 1213 also has a buffering effect. When the toggle body 1212 is pressed, the elastic body 1213 slows down the speed of pressing the movable body 1211 and slows down the downward movement speed of the load member 122, so as to reduce the speed at which the load member 122 presses against the button, thereby reducing the impact force of the load member 122 on the button, which helps to further improve the detection accuracy of the button.
[0046] Please see Figure 3 In this embodiment, the actuating body 1212 is provided with an annular groove 1215 on the side facing the load member 122. One end of the elastic body 1213 is housed in the annular groove 1215 to facilitate the housing and limiting of the elastic body 1213 and reduce the space occupied by the elastic body 1213.
[0047] Please see Figure 2In some embodiments, the support member 11 includes a support body 112 and a limiting ring 113. The support body 112 is provided with a receiving cavity 111, which extends through the support member 11. The limiting ring 113 is disposed in the receiving cavity 111, and the outer peripheral wall of the limiting ring 113 is connected to the inner peripheral wall of the receiving cavity 111 and is used to stop the actuating body 1212. The other end of the elastic body 1213 abuts against the limiting ring 113, and the movable body 1211 is movably inserted through the limiting ring 113.
[0048] Thus, when the actuating body 1212 is pressed down to a preset distance by external force, the limiting ring 113 stops and limits the actuating body 1212 to constrain and limit the stroke of the actuating body 1212. At the same time, the limiting ring 113 is also used to support the other end of the elastic body 1213.
[0049] Please see Figure 2 In some embodiments, the movable body 1211 includes a connecting post 1211a, a movable part 1211b, and a stop ring 1211c. The connecting post 1211a is movably inserted through the limiting ring 113. One end of the connecting post 1211a is connected to the actuating body 1212. The movable part 1211b is connected to the other end of the connecting post 1211a and has a sliding cavity 1214. The stop ring 1211c is disposed in the sliding cavity 1214 and connected to the end of the movable part 1211b away from the connecting post 1211a. The stop ring 1211c is used to support the load-bearing component 122.
[0050] Please see Figure 2 In some embodiments, the stop ring 1211c is detachably connected to the movable body 1211 so that the stop ring 1211c can be removed and load members 122 of different weight specifications can be installed or replaced to meet the requirements of different manufacturers for the keyboard's factory standards.
[0051] In some embodiments, the stop ring 1211c and the movable body 1211 are connected by threads to facilitate quick disassembly and installation of the stop ring 1211c.
[0052] Please see Figure 4 In some embodiments, the load-bearing component 122 includes a load-bearing body 1221, a sliding body 1222, and a supporting body 1223. The load-bearing body 1221 is configured with a preset weight. The sliding body 1222 is slidably connected to the sliding cavity 1214 and is used to support the load-bearing body 1221. One end of the supporting body 1223 is connected to the sliding body 1222, and the other end of the supporting body 1223 extends out of the sliding cavity 1214 and is used to support the button. Specifically, the supporting body 1223 is a cylindrical structure.
[0053] Thus, the sum of the weights of the load body 1221, the slider 1222, and the support body 1223, which have a preset weight, is the predetermined weight, and forms the pressure for pressing the button. The weights of the slider 1222 and the support body 1223 remain constant. The low pressure of the button can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of load bodies 1221, or by replacing load bodies 1221 with different weight specifications, to meet the testing needs of different manufacturers.
[0054] Please see Figure 4 In some embodiments, the sliding body 1222 has a bearing groove 12234 on the side facing away from the supporting body 1223. The load body 1221 is housed in the bearing groove 12234. The bearing groove 12234 houses the load body 1221 to prevent the load body 1221 from shaking during detection and affecting the detection accuracy.
[0055] In some embodiments, the test component 12 is positioned directly in front of the center of the button to test whether pressing the test button can trigger the function. This test can meet the vast majority of testing needs.
[0056] In some embodiments, the test component 12 is positioned opposite one corner of the button to test whether pressing the corner of the test button can trigger the function. This detection can satisfy some extreme cases to ensure that the function can still be triggered when the corner of the button is pressed. Therefore, by detecting the corner of the button, the detection accuracy can be improved.
[0057] During testing, the placement angle of the support member 11 is adjusted so that the test component 12 corresponds to different corners on the button, thereby enabling the testing of the four corners of the button.
[0058] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the number of receiving cavities 111 is the same as the number of test components 12, and there are four of them. Each test component 12 is housed in a corresponding receiving cavity 111 and corresponds to one end corner of the button.
[0059] Thus, during testing, the support 11 is placed above the button, with each test component 12 facing one corner of the button. Without adjusting the placement angle of the support 11, the four corners of the button can be tested, resulting in higher testing efficiency.
[0060] Please see Figure 2 In some embodiments, the support member 11 further includes four end posts 114, which are located at the four corners of the support body 112 and are used to be placed on the keyboard near the four corners of the key to be tested, and to support the entire testing device.
[0061] The working principle of the above-mentioned testing device is roughly as follows:
[0062] First, place the test component 12 above the keyboard, so that the key to be tested is placed in the sliding cavity 1214, and the end post 114 of the component to be tested abuts against the end corner of the keyboard near the key.
[0063] Then, by pressing the toggle body 1212 downwards with external force, the toggle body 1212 is moved to a preset distance until it abuts against the limiting ring 113. When the toggle body 1212 moves downwards, it will also squeeze the elastic body 1213 to produce elastic deformation, and cause the load member 122 to move downwards. When it moves to the point where the load member 122 abuts against one corner of the button, the gravity of the load member 122 is transferred from being applied to the moving body 1211 to being applied to the button.
[0064] Next, the external force is removed, and the elastic force released by the elastic body 1213 that has undergone elastic deformation drives the toggle body 1212 and the load member 122 to reset, so that the weight of the load member 122 is transferred from one end corner of the button to the moving body 1211. At this time, the button is qualified by judging whether the button function is triggered. When the button function is triggered, the button is qualified; when the button function is not triggered, the button is unqualified.
[0065] Finally, repeat the above actions to press the other test components 12 to perform a press test on the other corners of the buttons.
[0066] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this disclosure, but the scope of protection of this disclosure is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this disclosure should be included within the scope of protection of this disclosure. Therefore, the scope of protection of this disclosure should be determined by the scope of the claims.
