Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aircraft component testing technology, specifically to aircraft cable connector testing equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Cable connectors are mainly used for internal connections in various digital program-controlled exchanges and optoelectronic transmission equipment, as well as for signal transmission between patch panels. They are used to transmit data, audio, video, and other communication equipment. They are electrical connection devices specifically designed for use in aircraft and other high-end equipment. They are characterized by high voltage resistance, anti-interference, waterproofing, shock resistance, and corrosion resistance. They can maintain good electrical contact and signal transmission under high-intensity vibration, extreme temperatures, and harsh environments. Therefore, vibration testing is often required before use.
[0003] The "Vibration Testing Fixture and Vibration Testing Device" disclosed in application number "202021259997.X" "includes a test stage, a stage, an adjustable clamping element, and multiple fasteners. The test stage includes several mounting sides, each side having multiple fastening holes; the stage has a first through hole adapted to each fastening hole; the adjustable clamping element is placed on the stage and used to clamp the product to be tested; each fastener passes through the first through hole and the fastening hole to fix the stage to the test stage. During vibration testing, the vibration test results of electronic equipment in different directions can be observed without using different test fixtures, and multiple vibration test results in different directions can be detected on the same test stage, improving the versatility of the vibration testing fixture, reducing the number of fixtures used, and achieving the effect of reducing manufacturing costs."
[0004] However, the above method still has the following drawbacks: the adjustable clamping device can clamp the electronic product, but it requires the lead screw to drive the moving arm, which makes it difficult to achieve the self-locking of the lead screw. During vibration, the lead screw and the moving arm are prone to loosening, which will reduce the stability of the electronic product and affect the test accuracy. Utility Model Content

[0030] After the terminal 14 is fixed, the worm 501 can achieve self-locking of the bidirectional screw 2 through the worm wheel 502, which prevents the terminal 14 from loosening and falling off. After the tester engages the cable connector with the terminal 14, the vibration motor 1701 of the vibration assembly 17 vibrates the base 1. The base 1 can transmit the vibration to the aircraft cable connector through the support 8 and the terminal 14, so that the vibration test of the cable connector can be carried out. The tester connects the vibration sensor 13 to the existing vibration meter, which can monitor the amplitude and frequency environment of the cable connector. After the test, the cable connector is unplugged and the bidirectional screw 2 is rotated again to remove the terminal 14.
