The signal sending device 1 can be used to send pulse signals.
[0043] The signal processing device 3 is arranged inside the test space 2. The first end of the signal processing device 3 is in communication connection with the signal sending device 1, so as to be able to receive the pulse signals sent by the signal sending device 1 and perform corresponding control processing. The second end of the signal processing device 3 is grounded, specifically, a large piece of metal can be connected to the second end of the signal processing device 3.
[0044] The touch simulation device 4 is arranged inside the test space 2. The first end of the touch simulation device 4 is connected with the third end of the signal processing device 3. The second end of the touch simulation device 4 is used to contact the contact point on the touch screen 5 inside the test space 2. The touch simulation device 4 can be a conductive suction cup.
[0045] The signal processing device 3 is used to selectively ground or suspend the first end of the touch simulation device 4 based on the pulse signals obtained by the first end, so that the first end of the touch simulation device 4 is repeatedly grounded, so as to change the capacitance of the contact point on the touch screen 5, to simulate the capacitive touch operation on the contact point on the touch screen 5.
[0046] In the embodiment, the signal sending device 1 which is easily affected by the test environment is arranged outside the test space 2. Inside the test space 2, the signal processing device 3 is arranged to receive the signal and selectively ground or suspend the first end of the touch simulation device 4, so that the first end of the touch simulation device 4 is repeatedly grounded, so as to change the capacitance of the contact point on the touch screen 5, to simulate the capacitive touch operation on the contact point on the touch screen 5. Thus, the influence of the test environment on the whole touch simulation test device is avoided, and a more accurate test device can be obtained.
[0047] In a possible implementation, the test space 2 can be a temperature chamber, which can be used for environmental reliability test.
[0048] The signal sending device 1 can comprise a signal generator 11, which is used for sending a pulse signal.

Thus, the environmental reliability test in the temperature chamber can be realized.
[0050] In a possible implementation, the test space 2 can be a darkroom, which can be used for electromagnetic compatibility test.
[0051] The signal sending device 1 can comprise a signal generator 11 and an analog optical coupling transmitter 12, an output end of the signal generator 11 being connected with an input end of the analog optical coupling transmitter 12; the signal processing device 3 comprises an analog optical coupling receiver 31 and a control module, an output end of the analog optical coupling transmitter 12 being connected with an input end of the analog optical coupling receiver 31, a first end of the control module being connected with an output end of the analog optical coupling receiver 31, a second end of the control module being grounded, and a third end of the control module being connected with the first end of the touch simulation device 4.
[0052] The signal generator 11 generates a pulse signal, and converts the pulse signal into an optical signal through the analog optical coupling transmitter 12. The analog optical coupling transmitter 12 and the analog optical coupling receiver 31 can be connected through an optical fiber, so that the optical signal is transmitted into the analog optical coupling receiver 31 in the darkroom through the optical fiber, and then converted into a pulse signal through the analog optical coupling receiver 31 and transmitted to the control module. The control module selectively grounds or suspends the first end of the touch simulation device 4 based on the pulse signal, so that the first end of the touch simulation device 4 is repeatedly grounded, so as to change the capacitance of the contact point on the touch screen 5, and simulate the capacitive touch operation on the contact point on the touch screen 5.
[0053] Figure 2 is a structural schematic diagram of another touch simulation test device according to an example embodiment, Figure 3 is a structural schematic diagram of still another touch simulation test device according to an example embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in a possible implementation, the control module can be a voltage-controlled switch 32.
[0054] The signal generator 11, the analog optocoupler transmitter 12 and the analog optocoupler receiver 31 each include M groups of signal transmission pins, the voltage control switch 32, the touch simulation device 4 and the contact point each have M, M is a positive integer;
[0055] Among them, a group of signal transmission pins corresponds to one voltage control switch 32, one touch simulation device 4 and one contact point. In the case of M equal to 1, that is, single-point touch test is carried out, in the case of M greater than 1, then multi-point touch test is carried out. The pulse signal of the test of one contact point is transmitted through a group of transmission pins.
[0056] In a possible implementation, a group of signal transmission pins of the signal generator 11 includes an output positive signal pin and an output negative signal pin, a group of signal transmission pins of the analog optocoupler transmitter 12 and the analog optocoupler receiver 31 each includes an input positive signal pin, an input negative signal pin, an output positive signal pin and an output negative signal pin, and the first end of the voltage control switch 32 includes an input positive signal pin and an input negative signal pin.
[0057] The input positive signal pin and the input negative signal pin of a group of signal transmission pins of the analog optocoupler transmitter 12 are respectively connected with the output positive signal pin and the output negative signal pin of the same group of signal transmission pins of the signal generator 11.
[0058] The input positive signal pin and the input negative signal pin of a group of signal transmission pins of the analog optocoupler receiver 31 are respectively connected with the output positive signal pin and the output negative signal pin of the same group of signal transmission pins of the analog optocoupler transmitter 12.
[0059] The input positive signal pin and the input negative signal pin of the voltage control switch 32 are respectively connected with the output positive signal pin and the output negative signal pin of the same group of signal transmission pins of the analog optocoupler receiver 31.
[0060] In the embodiment, one pulse signal sent by the signal generator 11 includes a positive signal and a negative signal. The positive signal is output to the input positive signal pin of the analog optocoupler 31 through the output positive signal pin of the signal generator 11, and is output to the input positive signal pin of the voltage control switch 32 through the output positive signal pin of the analog optocoupler 31. The negative signal is output to the input negative signal pin of the analog optocoupler 31 through the output negative signal pin of the signal generator 11, and is output to the input negative signal pin of the voltage control switch 32 through the output negative signal pin of the analog optocoupler 31. One pulse signal is input and output by the same group of signal transmission pins. The voltage control switch 32 can determine whether the first end of the touch simulation device 4 is grounded or suspended according to the positive signal and the negative signal in the same pulse signal.
[0061] In a possible implementation, the voltage control switch 32 can include a switch component 321. The second end of the voltage control switch 32 is led out from the first end of the switch component 321, and the third end of the voltage control switch 32 is led out from the second end of the switch component 321. The switch component 321 is used to turn on or turn off the first end of the touch simulation device 4 and the second end of the voltage control switch 32 to simulate the capacitive touch operation on the contact point on the touch screen 5.
[0062] In the embodiment, after the voltage control switch 32 receives the pulse signal, the voltage control switch 32 can determine the opening and closing of the switch component 321 based on the voltage difference between the positive signal and the negative signal of the pulse signal to turn on or turn off the first end of the touch simulation device 4 and the second end of the voltage control switch 32. For example, when the voltage difference between the positive signal and the negative signal is greater than a voltage preset threshold, the switch component 321 is controlled to be closed to turn on the first end of the touch simulation device 4 and the second end of the voltage control switch 32, resulting in a larger capacitance of the corresponding contact point. When the voltage difference between the positive signal and the negative signal is less than or equal to the voltage preset threshold, the switch component 321 is controlled to be opened to turn off the first end of the touch simulation device 4 and the second end of the voltage control switch 32, resulting in a smaller capacitance of the corresponding contact point. Thus, the capacitive touch operation on the contact point on the touch screen 5 is simulated.
[0063] In a possible implementation, the period of the pulse signal sent by the signal sending device 1 ranges from 3s to 5s, and the pulse width of the pulse signal is greater than 200ms. In this way, the frequency and duration of the touch operation can be controlled, so that the touch screen 5 can be identified.
[0064] In a possible implementation, a touch simulation test system is also provided, which includes the touch simulation test device provided in the above embodiments, and the touch screen 5 arranged in the test space 2. The output end of the touch simulation test device is in contact with the contact point on the touch screen 5.
