Description

Technical Field

[0002] With the continuous iteration and upgrading of PCR instruments, product design increasingly emphasizes miniaturization, speed, lightweighting, and precision, resulting in a more compact assembly space for internal components. Currently, the performance quality control of thermal components in PCR instruments mainly relies on manual visual inspection or simple multimeter testing. This method can only verify the connection of basic components and cannot assess anomalies in key thermal performance indicators such as temperature gradient and temperature uniformity. These anomalies are usually only identified during the final product debugging process. Once a fault is identified, rework is required, necessitating the removal of related components, increasing rework intensity and impacting production efficiency. Therefore, pre-testing the thermal performance of PCR instrument thermal components before final instrument assembly is crucial. Utility Model Content

[0037] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0038] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0039] Example

[0040] This utility model provides a device for inspecting the assembly quality of thermal components, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the enclosure includes a chamber 1. In this embodiment, the chamber 1 is a rectangular enclosure formed by six plates: front, back, left, right, top, and bottom. A thermal component placement area 2 is provided inside the chamber 1, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, the thermal component placement position 2 includes a drawer 21. The two sides of the drawer 21 are slidably connected to the inner sides of the left and right panels of the compartment 1 via slide rails 22. The surface of the drawer 21 is provided with pins 23. The support frame 24 is fixed to the drawer 21 by the pins 23. The front end of the drawer 21 is provided with a first handle 26.

[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, a hot cover clamping structure 3 is provided on the top plate of the chamber 1, including a manually driven drive and a clamping component that can be displaced to the thermal component through the hot cover and apply clamping force. The clamping component includes a movable shaft 38, an arc-shaped plate 32, an intermediate plate 33 and a hot cover 34. The arc-shaped plate 32 is mounted on the outside of the top plate of the chamber 1 through its two end plates. Below the arc-shaped plate 32, the intermediate plate 33 and the hot cover 34 are arranged in sequence parallel to the top plate of the chamber 1. Two guide rods 35 are arranged at intervals on the bottom surface of the arc-shaped plate 32. The guide rods 35 are perpendicular to the web of the arc-shaped plate 32. The intermediate plate 33 passes through the guide rods 35 and is connected to the hot cover 34 through two screws 36. A spring 37 is sleeved on each screw 36. The movable shaft 38 passes through the center of the arc-shaped plate 32 and the intermediate plate 33 and is fixed to the intermediate plate 33 by a nut.

[0042] In this embodiment, the driving component includes a handle 31, which is rotatably connected above the end of the movable shaft 38 extending from the end of the bow-shaped plate 32. The movable shaft 38 is located on the rotation path of the handle 31. Specifically, when the handle 31 rotates, the movable shaft 38 will form a resistance to the rotation of the handle 31. The handle 31 continues to rotate, squeezing the movable shaft 38, thereby causing the movable shaft 38 to shift along its set direction.

[0043] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the operating principle of the hot cover pressing structure 3 in this embodiment is as follows: When the handle 31 moves from the horizontal to the vertical direction, the handle 31 will squeeze the movable shaft 38. The movable shaft 38 will move along its axial direction due to the squeezing of the handle 31. The guide rod 35 is movably connected to the intermediate plate 33. The movable shaft 38 will drive the intermediate plate 33 and the hot cover 34 to press down. The guide rod 35 provides a guiding function. When the hot cover 34 contacts the thermal component, since the screw 36 is movably set through the intermediate plate 33, the movable shaft 38 will drive the intermediate plate 33 to press down. As plate 33 continues to press down, screw 36 also acts as a guide. Spring 37, which is sleeved on screw 36, applies pressure to hot cover 34, thereby applying clamping force to the thermal assembly. When handle 31 is rotated horizontally, movable shaft 38 loses force, and spring 37 resets. In this embodiment, the elastic coefficient of spring 37 is 14.5 N / mm to 15 N / mm, preferably 14.9 N / mm. When the spring resets, it lifts the intermediate plate 33, thereby restoring the hot cover clamping structure 3 to its original state.

[0044] As the driving part of the movable shaft 38, the driving component can be driven by a cylinder, in addition to the driving method provided in this embodiment. The cylinder outputs pressure to the movable shaft to drive the movable shaft to move. Alternatively, a lead screw coaxial with the movable shaft can be mounted on the top of the movable shaft. The lead screw rotates through a threaded structure to adjust the distance between the lead screw and the movable shaft, and pressure is transmitted by pressing down on the lead screw. Therefore, the working principle of the clamping component is to provide downward pressure to the movable shaft. Any device that can achieve this principle can be a clamping component.

[0045] A limiting pin 8 is provided on the bottom plate of the compartment 1 near the rear end of the drawer 21. The limiting pin 8 is used to limit the distance that the drawer 21 extends into the compartment 1, thereby limiting the position of the thermal component placement position 2. When the thermal component is placed on the hollow slot 25 of the support frame 24, the drawer 21 is pushed, and the limiting pin 8 can stop the drawer 21 when it travels to a fixed position.

[0046] The front panel of compartment 1 is movably connected to the bottom panel. When drawer 21 needs to be pulled out, the front panel of compartment 1 can be opened to be flush with the bottom panel, which facilitates the pulling out and pushing in of the thermal component placement position 2.

[0047] The front panel of the compartment 1 is equipped with a second handle 9, which makes it easy to open the rectangular compartment 1 and place the thermal components.

[0048] A cooling fan 6 is installed on the rear panel of the chamber 1 for heat exchange inside the rectangular chamber, simulating the actual working scenario of the thermal components.

[0049] A socket 7 is also provided on the rear panel of the compartment 1. The socket 7 is connected to the power box 4 to provide power.

[0050] The specific usage process of the thermal component assembly quality inspection device provided in this embodiment is as follows:

[0051] When using, such as Figure 5 As shown, firstly, open the rectangular compartment 1 using the second handle 9 on the front panel, and pull out the drawer 21 using the first handle 26, thereby pulling out the thermal component placement position 2 from the rectangular compartment. Place the thermal component to be tested onto the slot 25 of the support frame 24, and position the thermal component by the slot 25. Insert the temperature measuring probe into the temperature block hole of the thermal component, and connect the thermal component and the temperature measuring instrument using the wiring harness at the bottom of the drawer 21. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the wiring harness is then connected to the main control board 5 and the test computer 10 to facilitate the main control board 5's control of the thermal component 11 and to transmit the analysis signal to the test computer 10. Next, the thermal component placement position 2 is pushed into the rectangular compartment until the drawer 21 contacts the limit pin 8 on the bottom plate. At this point, the thermal component 11 has reached the preset position. Then, the front panel of the compartment 1 is closed, and the handle 31 of the hot cover pressing structure 3 rotates to press the movable shaft 38. The movable shaft 38 drives the intermediate plate 33 and the hot cover 34 to move downward. When the hot cover 34 contacts the hot block of the thermal component, the intermediate plate 33 will continue to move downward and press the spring 37, so that the hot cover 34 and the thermal component generate heat. A clamping force is applied, which can be adjusted by adjusting the rotation angle of the handle 31, so that the heat cover 34 fits tightly against the temperature block of the thermal component. The test computer 10 and power box 4 are turned on in sequence, and the test software is started. The test software controls the thermal component to complete the heating and cooling process according to the set program. At the same time, the temperature of the entire process is collected by a thermometer and compared with the temperature set by the test software. The temperature compensation parameters of the thermal component are obtained. After the temperature compensation parameters are read into the test software, the predetermined temperature running program is used to verify and confirm whether the accuracy and consistency of the thermal component can meet the technical specifications, thereby screening out unqualified thermal components.
