[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] Please see Figures 1-6 In this embodiment of the utility model, a test platform 1 is included. A support 2 is fixedly connected above the test platform 1. A rotating frame 3 is provided between the supports 2. The rotating frame 3 is rotatably connected to the support 2, and two flip-top clamps 7 are slidably connected on the rotating frame 3.

[0030] By adopting the above technical solution, the combination structure of the support 2 and the rotating frame 3 fixedly connected above the test platform 1, the rotating frame 3 and the support 2 are rotatably connected, which gives the rotating frame 3 the ability to rotate flexibly. The two flip clamps 7 slidably connected on the rotating frame 3 are also ingeniously designed. This sliding connection method allows the flip clamps 7 to change position on the rotating frame 3 as needed. Facing various sizes of laptops 4 on the market, whether it is a small and portable thin and light laptop or a business laptop with a larger screen, the distance of the flip clamps 7 can be adjusted to accurately adapt to the flip width of the laptop, which greatly enhances the versatility of the test machine and reduces the testing obstacles caused by the difference in laptop size.

[0031] Furthermore, during the testing process, the rotating frame 3, which is connected by a rotating mechanism, can flexibly adjust its angle along with the flip-cover clamp 7 to match the movement trajectory of the laptop 4 when it is opened or closed. The sliding flip-cover clamp 7 is responsible for precise positioning in the horizontal dimension. The two complement each other and can fix the flip-cover of the laptop 4 with extremely high precision. When testing key indicators such as the opening and closing force and angle of the flip-cover, the stable and precise positioning can avoid data deviations caused by loosening or displacement of the clamp, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the test results.

[0032] In this embodiment, the inner side of the bracket 2 is provided with a rotating frame 3. The rotating frame 3 includes a drive rod 31. A rotating shaft 21 is installed on the drive rod 31 and is fixedly connected to the drive rod 31. One side of the rotating shaft 21 extends into the interior of the bracket 2 and is rotatably connected to the bracket 2 through a bearing. The other side of the rotating shaft 21 is provided with a fixing block 5 and is rotatably connected to the fixing block 5.

[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, the drive rod 31 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 21, and the rotating shaft 21 is rotatably connected to the bracket 2 through the bearing, so that the rotating frame 3 rotates stably around the rotating shaft 21. When conducting the flip test of the laptop 4, whether it is slow opening and closing to simulate daily gentle use or fast opening and closing to test extreme working conditions, the rotation action can be guaranteed to be smooth and unobstructed, avoiding the adverse effects of stuttering and shaking on the accuracy of test data, and accurately reproducing the flip dynamics under real use scenarios.

[0034] In this embodiment, a rectangular groove is provided on the fixing block 5, and a positioning block 52 is provided in the rectangular groove and is slidably connected to the fixing block 5. A lead screw 51 is installed in the middle of the positioning block 52. A knob is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lead screw 51, and a bearing is used to rotate it to the fixing block 5. Positioning shafts are provided on both sides of the lead screw 51. The two ends of the positioning shafts are fixedly connected to the fixing block 5, and the positioning shafts are slidably connected to the positioning block 52.

[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, the rectangular groove on the fixed block 5 and the positioning block 52 are slidably connected, which limits the precise trajectory for the movement of subsequent components. When the lead screw 51 is rotated, due to the fit between the lead screw 51 and the positioning block 52, the positioning block 52 will move linearly along the lead screw 51 under the action of the lead screw nut transmission principle. The positioning shafts on both sides further play a guiding and limiting role, ensuring that the positioning block 52 can only slide smoothly on the predetermined path, and preventing deviation or shaking. This allows components such as the laptop placement board 9 connected to the positioning block 52 to achieve millimeter-level precise position adjustment in the horizontal direction, easily adapting to laptops 4 of different lengths and widths, making the test equipment more versatile.

[0036] In this embodiment, a laptop placement plate 9 is bolted to the positioning block 52, and two laptops 4 are placed on the laptop placement plate 9. Multiple laptop clamps 8 are provided at both ends of the laptops 4 and are bolted to the laptop placement plate 9.

[0037] By adopting the above technical solution, the positioning block 52 is bolted to the laptop placement plate 9, and the placement plate 9 can hold two laptops 4 at the same time. This design significantly improves testing efficiency. When conducting batch testing, compared with the test machine that can only hold one laptop, it can simultaneously perform flip-top testing on two laptops, greatly saving testing time and speeding up the testing process. It is especially suitable for the quality inspection link in large-scale production, reducing the overall testing cycle and improving production efficiency.

[0038] Furthermore, the laptop 4 has multiple laptop clamps 8 at both ends, and these clamps 8 are connected to the laptop placement plate 9 by bolts. This bolt connection method ensures the stability of the bottom of the laptop during the test. When the flip test is performed, the laptop 4 will be subjected to a large force and torque, and the strong bolt connection can prevent the laptop 4 from shifting, shaking or deviating, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the flip test and avoiding test data errors caused by the unstable position of the laptop 4.

[0039] In this embodiment, a sliding groove is provided on one side of the drive rod 31, and a slider 32 is provided inside the sliding groove. The slider 32 is fixedly connected to the rotating frame 3. The flip-top clamp 7, which is slidably connected to the rotating frame 3, can be locked and fixed to the rotating frame 3 by bolts.

[0040] By adopting the above technical solution, the combination of the slide groove and the slider 32 on one side of the drive rod 31 brings additional freedom of movement to the rotating frame 3. The slider 32 is fixed on the rotating frame 3, which means that the rotating frame 3 can slide flexibly along the slide groove. Correspondingly, the position of the flip clamp 7 installed on the rotating frame 3 is also dynamically adjusted. This design is compatible with the flip covers of laptops of different sizes. Whether it is a narrow-bezel thin and light laptop or a wide-body gaming laptop, it can accurately position the two sides of the flip cover, which greatly improves the compatibility of the test machine with various laptop products 4 and reduces testing obstacles caused by size differences.

[0041] Furthermore, in the testing phase, accurate positioning of the flip cover is crucial for obtaining reliable data. The sliding flip cover clamp 7 can be adjusted in terms of spacing and angle as needed. After locating the edge of the laptop flip cover, it is then firmly locked to the rotating frame 3 with bolts. The stable connection prevents the clamp from loosening or shifting during testing, ensuring that the force is accurately applied to the flip cover area during each flip cover test, thereby improving the testing accuracy.

[0042] In this embodiment, the test bench 1 is equipped with a motor 11 inside, a reducer 12 is installed on one side of the motor 11, and a coupling 13 is installed on both sides of the reducer 12. A rotating shaft support frame 15 is provided on one side of the coupling 13, and the rotating shaft support frame 15 is fixedly connected to the base plate of the test bench 1.

[0043] By adopting the above technical solution, the motor 11 serves as the power source, providing initial power to the entire testing equipment. The reducer 12, installed in conjunction with the motor, plays a crucial role in speed regulation and torque amplification. The laptop 4 flip test requires specific speeds and forces to simulate real-world usage scenarios. The reducer 12 can accurately convert the high-speed, low-torque power output by the motor 11 into suitable low-speed, high-torque power according to the testing requirements, ensuring uniform force and stable speed for each flip action, and avoiding test deviations caused by unstable power output.

[0044] Furthermore, the rotating shaft support frame 15 is fixedly connected to the base plate of the test bench 1, providing a support structure for the entire power transmission link. When the motor 11 and the reducer 12 are working continuously and driving the relevant rotating parts to run, the rotating shaft support frame 15 firmly stabilizes the coupling 13 and the subsequently connected rotating shaft and other components, resisting the centrifugal force and vibration force generated by the operation, preventing the components from shaking or shifting due to lack of stable support, allowing the power system to run stably, and reducing equipment wear and test errors caused by structural instability.

[0045] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft support frame 15 is provided with a rotating shaft 14, which is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft support frame 15 through a bearing. One end of the rotating shaft 14 is fixedly connected to the coupling 13, and the other end is fitted with a first pulley 16.

[0046] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating shaft 14 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft support frame 15 with the help of bearings. The use of bearings greatly reduces the friction during rotation. When power is transmitted to the rotating shaft 14 through the coupling 13, the rotating shaft 14 can rotate very smoothly in the support frame 15. This low-friction operation mode reduces component wear, extends the service life of the equipment, and ensures the high efficiency of power transmission, making the subsequent drive action response more agile and avoiding deviations in test actions due to jamming or sluggishness.

[0047] Furthermore, one end of the rotating shaft 14 is fixedly connected to the coupling 13, so that the power energy transmitted from the coupling 13 can be completely and steadily received, eliminating looseness and energy loss at the power transmission connection. The other end is fitted with the first pulley 16, which paves the way for the subsequent transmission links carried out by the belt, ensuring that the power energy flows continuously and smoothly to the next level of transmission components, maintaining the continuity and stability of the entire power transmission link, and providing a stable power foundation for the laptop 4 flip test.

[0048] In this embodiment, a second pulley 22 is fitted on the rotating shaft 21 inside the bracket 2, and a pulley group 24 is fixedly connected below the second pulley 22. The second pulley 22, the pulley group 24 and the first pulley 16 are connected by a belt 23.

[0049] By adopting the above technical solution, power can be effectively transmitted from the first pulley 16 to the second pulley 22 and the pulley block 24, realizing the transmission and conversion of power. During the operation of the equipment, the belt 23, as a connecting element, uses its own good flexibility and friction to fit tightly against the first pulley 16 and the second pulley 22. When the first pulley 16 starts to rotate, the belt 23 will move accordingly, thereby driving the second pulley 22 to rotate, and at the same time driving the drive rod 31 and the rotating frame 3 to rotate, so as to carry out precise flip test of the laptop 4.

[0050] In this embodiment, cooling fans 17 are provided on both sides inside the test bench 1, and a protective cover is fixedly connected to the corresponding part of the cooling fans 17 on the outside of the test bench 1; a control panel 6 is provided on the front side of the test bench 1.

[0051] By adopting the above technical solution, cooling fans 17 are installed on both sides inside the test bench 1, which can efficiently dissipate heat from the electrical components and operating parts inside the test bench. The cooling fans 17 operate continuously, forming air convection, and promptly carrying heat out of the test bench 1, maintaining a stable internal ambient temperature, ensuring that each component is always in a suitable operating temperature range, ensuring stable operation of the equipment for a long time, reducing the number of shutdowns and maintenance due to overheating, and improving the overall reliability of the equipment.

[0052] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the motor 11 located inside the test bench 1 starts. The power generated by the motor 11 is the starting power for the entire test equipment. The reducer 12, which is installed in conjunction with the motor 11, converts the high-speed rotation output by the motor 11 into low-speed rotation according to a predetermined reduction ratio, while increasing the torque to output stable and appropriate low-speed, high-torque power. The power after speed adjustment and torque amplification by the reducer 12 is transmitted to the rotating shaft 14 through the coupling 13. The coupling 13 ensures the continuity of power transmission, and the rotating shaft 14 is installed... Inside the rotating shaft support frame 15, thanks to the low friction characteristics of the bearing, a smooth rotational connection is achieved between the rotating shaft 14 and the rotating shaft support frame 15. One end of the rotating shaft 14 is firmly fixed on the coupling 13, receiving the transmitted power and driving the first pulley 16 at the other end to start rotating at a constant speed. After the first pulley 16 starts rotating, it drives the second pulley 22 on the rotating shaft 21 inside the bracket 2 and the pulley group 24 to rotate synchronously through the belt 23. After the second pulley 22 and the pulley group 24 obtain power, they drive the rotating frame 3 connected to them to rotate around the rotating shaft 21.

[0053] The laptop 4 is placed on the laptop mounting plate 9, and the laptop clamps 8 at both ends are tightened to the mounting plate 9 with bolts to firmly fix the laptop 4. The spacing and position of the flip clamp 7 are adjusted, and then it is locked to the rotating frame 3 with bolts to accurately clamp the laptop flip. Then, the rotating frame 3 opens and closes and rotates according to the set speed and angle to accurately test the opening and closing force, angle and other key indicators of the flip. During the entire test, the cooling fans 17 on both sides of the test bench 1 run continuously to maintain a suitable internal temperature. The operator can also adjust the test parameters as needed through the control panel 6 on the front of the test bench 1 to ensure that the test is carried out efficiently and accurately.
