[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the backlight module test box includes a housing 11, a voltmeter 12, an ammeter 13, an ohmmeter 14, an alarm device, a controller, and a power module. The voltmeter 12, ammeter 13, ohmmeter 14, alarm device, and power module are respectively housed within the housing 11 and electrically connected to the controller. The surface of the housing 11 is equipped with a first display screen 151 and a second display screen 152. The first display screen 151 displays the values ​​of the voltmeter 12 and ammeter 13, and the second display screen 152 displays the value of the ohmmeter 14. The power module supplies power to the controller, alarm device, and the power module under test. The alarm device is electrically connected to the controller. The controller monitors the values ​​of the voltmeter 12, ammeter 13, and ohmmeter 14 in real time. When the controller detects that the voltmeter 12 is 0 or the ammeter 13 is 0, the controller determines that the backlight module under test is short-circuited or open-circuited, and the alarm device automatically sounds an alarm. The alarm sound can be a buzzer, a voice alarm, or a "beep" sound. In this embodiment, the voltage value of the backlight module test box is 3V~36V; in other embodiments, the voltage value of the backlight module test box can be set within the required range, and is not limited to 3V~36V.

[0025] The backlight module test box of this utility model can monitor and analyze the values ​​of voltmeter 12, ammeter 13 and ohmmeter 14 in real time through the controller. When the backlight module under test has a short circuit, open circuit or damaged thermistor, the alarm device will automatically sound an alarm to prevent defective products from being released. This backlight module test box can realize multi-functional and intelligent testing, eliminating the need for manual testing and adjustment. It is simple to operate, improves work efficiency, and effectively prevents damage to components and product circuits caused by human error.

[0026] Preferably, the backlight module test box includes an automatic adjustment Zener diode and a carbon film resistor. The backlight module test box also includes a power adapter, which is electrically connected to the automatic adjustment Zener diode and the carbon film resistor. The power adapter is used to connect to the backlight module under test to output constant current and constant voltage. The power adapter adopts a constant current and constant voltage automatic output mode. Through the conversion of the power adapter, it can be adapted to different models of backlight modules. The automatic adjustment Zener diode and the carbon film resistor have an automatic power-off mode to protect the circuit safety of the backlight module under test. It can effectively avoid damage to components caused by circuit damage, hot-swapping, incorrect insertion of the positive and negative terminals of the backlight module.

[0027] Preferably, the backlight module test box includes a first indicator light 161, which is electrically connected to the controller. When the controller determines that the backlight module is short-circuited, the first indicator light 161 lights up red.

[0028] Preferably, the backlight module test box also includes a DIP switch 171, which is used to adjust the current of the backlight module under test. The adjustment is made by the DIP switch 171 according to the required current of the backlight module under test.

The power switch 172 is used to turn the backlight module test box on or off. When the power switch 172 is turned on, the backlight module test box enters a standby state. When the power switch 172 is turned off, the backlight module test box is turned off. The low current check switch 173 is used to detect the low current of the backlight module under test. After testing the normal current of the backlight module under test, the low current is tested to test whether the current has dispersion. When the short circuit check switch 174 is turned on, the backlight module test box tests the circuit of the backlight module under test to determine whether there is a short circuit in the circuit of the backlight module under test, such as leakage current from the LED strip A&K and short circuit between the iron frame LED.

[0030] Preferably, the backlight module test box also includes a power switch 175, which is used to turn on or off the light strip or light board of the backlight module under test to test the integrity of the LED lights in the light strip or light board. The integrity of the LED lights refers to whether the LED lights themselves are damaged. For example, when the current, voltage, resistance, etc. of the backlight module under test are all normal, but when the backlight module is turned on, one or two LED lights in the light strip or light board do not light up or their brightness is significantly different from that of other LED lights, then the LED light is determined to be damaged.

[0031] Preferably, the backlight module test box also includes a second indicator light 162. When the resistance value of the thermistor of the backlight module under test is not within the set range, the second indicator light 162 lights up, and the alarm device sounds an alarm. In this embodiment, the resistance value of the thermistor at room temperature is 10kΩ, and the resistance value changes with temperature. Therefore, the set range refers to the normal resistance value range of the thermistor of the backlight module under test, that is, the upper and lower limits of the thermistor. Before testing the backlight module, the set value is entered into the backlight module test box. The controller judges the thermistor as OK or NG. If the measured resistance value of the thermistor is not within the set range, the controller judges it as NG, and the resistance value is abnormal. The controller controls the second indicator light 162 to light up, and the alarm device sounds an alarm.

[0032] Preferably, the backlight module test box further includes a display panel 18, which is electrically connected to the controller. The display panel 18 is used to display the cause of the fault of the backlight module under test. The cause of the fault is the specific reason for the fault, such as a short circuit between the LED strip A&K and the iron frame, a short circuit in the specific circuit of the backlight module, or the thermistor value exceeding the standard.

[0033] In another preferred embodiment, the display panel 18 forms an angle with the housing 11, the display panel 18 is in a standing state, and a pivot is provided between the display panel 18 and the housing, so that the display panel 18 can rotate relative to the housing 11, thereby realizing the folding function of the display panel 18.

[0034] Preferably, the backlight module test box is provided with multiple interfaces for connecting various types of adapter lighting fixtures; it can also be provided with multiple buttons, which work in conjunction with the display panel 18 to realize page turning, function selection and function confirmation of the function menu on the display panel 18, making it more intelligent.

[0035] In another preferred embodiment, an AI program is added to the controller to enable human-computer interaction through AI functions, making it more convenient and intelligent. On this basis, an AI voice button is set up to wake up or stop the AI ​​function.

[0036] Therefore, the backlight module test box in this embodiment can test backlight performance and monitor voltage and current. The test motherboard inside the backlight module test box can be pre-set with multiple test programs, so that the test of each backlight module under test can be carried out according to the specific product connection pin definition. The test motherboard is electrically connected to the controller. The test program of the test motherboard can be set as needed, covering NTC, LED, continuity and short circuit tests, etc. It can also combine the latest environmental light sensing detection requirements and programs to realize the functional detection of the light sensor. All of these are achieved by pre-setting the test program of the test motherboard, truly realizing multi-functional testing and intelligence.
