[0025] As described in the background section, the display panel requires manual clamping by staff onto a fixed plate. When connecting the power cord to the display panel, staff still need to support the panel. The testing process is cumbersome, not conducive to assembly line operations, and is both tedious and inefficient.

[0026] Therefore, this embodiment provides a display testing fixture for refrigerator display panels, which facilitates the fixed testing of display panels of different models.

[0027] This embodiment proposes a display testing fixture for a refrigerator display panel, including a testing box 1 and a power supply 4. The testing box 1 includes a box body 101, with protrusions 102 on both the front and rear sides of the box body 101. An anti-slip pad 103 is fixed to the bottom of the box body 101, and a tool box 104 is fixed on the protrusions 102. A valve body 301 is embedded in the box body 101. The anti-slip pad 103 is installed at the bottom of the box body 101 to increase friction and prevent the box body 101 from sliding, thereby improving the stability of the box body 101.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2It also includes a vacuum component 2, which is installed on the detection box 1. The vacuum component 2 includes a vacuum pump 201, which creates a vacuum environment by evacuating air. The output end of the vacuum pump 201 is connected to a connecting pipe 202, which is connected to the box body 101. The vacuum component 2 also includes a control button 203, which is installed on the protrusion 102. The control button 203 is used to manually control the start and stop of the vacuum pump 201.

[0029] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 It also includes multiple sets of control valves 3, which are installed on the detection box 1. Each control valve 3 includes a valve body 301, a valve plate 302 that is slidably disposed inside the valve body 301, an arc-shaped vent hole on the valve plate 302, and a sealing ring 303 that is fixed inside the valve body 301.

[0030] The valve plate 302 and the sealing ring 303 are connected by an elastic component, which includes a compression spring 304 and a fixing ring 305. The upper end of the compression spring 304 is fixed to the bottom surface of the valve plate 302, and the lower end of the compression spring 304 is fixed to the upper end of the fixing ring 305. The fixing ring 305 is fixed inside the valve body 301. The compression spring 304 provides an elastic force to push the valve plate 302 to reset.

[0031] Please see Figure 3 The control valve 3 also includes a guide component, which includes a fixed post 306 and a limiting plate 307. The fixed post 306 is fixed to the bottom surface of the valve plate 302, and the fixed post 306 is slidably connected to the limiting plate 307.

[0032] A filter plate 308 is installed inside the valve body 301. The filter plate 308 is used to filter impurities and prevent particulate matter from clogging the valve body 301. The filter plate 308 is threaded into the valve body 301. A cross groove 309 is provided on the filter plate 308. The filter plate 308 can be disassembled with a screwdriver for cleaning.

[0033] Working principle: When testing the display panel, place the display panel on the top surface of the housing 101, and then press the control button 203. After the control button 203 is pressed, the vacuum pump 201 will start. The vacuum pump 201 can remove the air from the housing 101 and valve body 301, so that the inside of the housing 101 and valve body 301 is in a negative pressure state. In the part of valve body 301 that is not covered by the display panel, a negative pressure will be generated quickly inside. The negative pressure will drive the valve plate 302 to press against the sealing ring 303, and the valve body 301 at this point will be in a closed state, thus making the entire housing 101 in a closed state. A stable negative pressure state is formed inside the housing 101. At this time, the top of the valve body 301 that is in contact with the display panel forms an adsorption force under the action of negative pressure, effectively fixing the display panel. At this time, it can be plugged in for testing. This device is convenient for fixing and testing display panels of different models.
