Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of PCBA electrical performance testing technology, specifically a PCBA electrical performance testing bench. Background Technology
[0002] Electrical performance testing of PCBA is a core indicator for evaluating its functionality, reliability, and stability, and is directly related to whether the product can function properly.
[0003] In the field of PCBA electrical performance testing, the traditional method is to use a flying probe tester. A flying probe tester is a high-precision testing device that uses a moving test probe to contact the test points on the PCBA to test its electrical performance.
[0004] A significant drawback of the aforementioned testing method is that it typically only tests one side of the PCBA at a time. However, if components or critical test points are distributed on both sides (such as surface mount components, vias, and through-hole connections), double-sided testing is necessary; otherwise, potential defects (such as open circuits, short circuits, and cold solder joints) may be missed. Therefore, when testing a double-sided PCBA, the operator must first remove the PCBA from the test fixture, manually flip it, and then reinstall it to test the other side. This process is not only time-consuming but also increases operational complexity. To address this, this application proposes a PCBA electrical performance testing bench. Utility Model Content

[0027] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0028] Please see Figure 1-5This embodiment of a PCBA electrical performance testing bench includes an operating table 1. The operating table 1 is equipped with two sets of lead screw traverse devices 2, a multi-directional movement component 5, and a flipping component 4 located between the two sets of lead screw traverse devices 2. A correction component 3 is installed on the moving end of the lead screw traverse device 2. A back plate 55 is fixed to the vertical moving end of the multi-directional movement component 5. The back plate 55 is U-shaped, and a push cylinder 56 is installed on both sides of the back plate 55. A clamping cylinder 57 is installed at the top end of the push cylinder 56, for example, MHZL2-16D. A testing component 6 is installed at the center of the back plate 55. The testing component 6 includes a fixing block 61 fixed on the back plate 55. A push cylinder 62 and a guide rod 63 are installed on the top of the fixing block 61. The piston rod of the push cylinder 62 is fixed to a connecting plate 64 fixed to the guide rod 63. A flying probe tester 65 is installed on the connecting plate 64.
[0029] In the above structure, the circuit board is placed in the calibration component 3 for calibration, and then moved to the end near the flipping component 4 by the lead screw lateral movement device 2. Under the operation of the multi-directional movement component 5, the clamping cylinder 57 can be moved by the back plate 55. With the cooperation of the push cylinder 56, the circuit board is moved close to the circuit board in the calibration component 3, thereby moving the circuit board into the flipping component 4. Similarly, the test component 6 adjusts its position under the movement of the multi-directional movement component 5, and the connecting plate 64 is pushed up and down by the push cylinder 62. Under the action of the flying probe tester 65, the circuit board is tested. After the test is completed, the flipping component 4 can quickly flip the circuit board, thereby completing the double-sided test. Therefore, it can effectively improve efficiency and reduce the risk of disassembling and damaging the circuit board.
[0030] After the clamping cylinder 57 returns the inspected circuit board to the calibration component 3, another clamping cylinder 57 places the circuit board into the flipping component 4, thus enabling the loading operation to be completed simultaneously with the unloading.
[0031] like Figure 2 The correction component 3 includes a placement seat 35 fixed on the moving end of the lead screw transverse device 2. The placement seat 35 has protrusions 36 formed at three corners and a side plate formed on the back. A side push cylinder 37 is installed on the side plate in an inclined manner. A side push plate 38 is fixed to the top end of the side push cylinder 37. Two adjusting screws 39 are threadedly connected to the side push plate 38. A correction block 310 is rotatably connected between the two adjusting screws 39.
[0032] When the circuit board is placed on the placement seat 35, the circuit board is located between the three protrusions 36 and the correction block 310. Then, the side push cylinder 37 drives the correction block 310 to push through the side push plate 38 and the adjusting screw 39, thereby pushing the circuit board to contact the protrusions 36 to complete the correction process of the circuit board. This avoids the circuit board from being misaligned, making it difficult for the clamping cylinder 57 to clamp or causing damage to the circuit board. Furthermore, the position of the correction block 310 can be adjusted by rotating the adjusting screw 39, and the distance of movement of the correction block 310 can be adjusted according to the needs to reduce damage to the circuit board.
[0033] To further explain, the movable end of the lead screw transverse device 2 is fixed with a base 31. The inner side of the base 31 is slidably connected to an inner plate 32 that is fixed to the placement seat 35. The front is threadedly connected to an adjusting screw 33 that is rotatably connected to the front of the inner plate 32. Both sides are threadedly connected to two locking screws 34 that abut against the inner plate 32.
[0034] By rotating the adjusting screw 33, the inner plate 32 can be adjusted to change position, thereby adjusting the position of the placement seat 35 as needed. After adjustment, the inner plate 32 is locked and positioned by the locking screw 34 on the side.
[0035] like Figure 3 The multi-directional moving component 5 includes a stand 51 fixed on the operating table 1. A first lead screw device 52 is installed on the top of the stand 51. A second lead screw device 53 is installed at the moving end of the first lead screw device 52. A vertical lead screw device 54 is installed at the moving end of the second lead screw device 53. The nut end of the vertical lead screw device 54 is fixed to the moving end of the second lead screw device 53. The back plate 55 is installed on the front of the vertical lead screw device 54. The lead screw lateral movement device 2, the first lead screw device 52, the second lead screw device 53 and the vertical lead screw device 54 are all existing lead screw and nut structures, which will not be described in detail here.
[0036] By combining the first lead screw device 52, the second lead screw device 53 and the vertical lead screw device 54, the back plate 55 can be driven to move precisely in the X, Y and Z directions. This allows the two sets of clamping cylinders 57 to move above the two sets of correction components 3 and flipping components 4 as needed, and also drives the test component 6 to move together to complete the testing of the circuit board.
[0037] like Figure 5The flipping assembly 4 includes a base plate 41 fixed on the operating table 1 and a mounting plate 412 located on the right side of the base plate 41. Two opposing upright plates 42 are fixed on the top of the base plate 41. A flipping frame 43 is rotatably connected between the two upright plates 42. A clamping plate 44 is slidably connected to the inner side of the flipping frame 43. Two sets of opposing push cylinders 46 are installed at the bottom. The piston rods of the opposing push cylinders 46 are fixed to the corresponding clamping plates 44. A servo motor 411 for driving the flipping frame 43 to rotate is installed on the mounting plate 412.
[0038] When the clamping cylinder 57 moves the circuit board into the flipping frame 43 and places it between the two clamping plates 44, the push cylinder 46 operates, causing the two clamping plates 44 to move relative to each other until they contact the circuit board and complete the clamping and fixing of the circuit board. After one side of the circuit board is tested, the test component 6 moves up a bit, and the servo motor 411 drives the flipping block to rotate, thereby enabling the circuit board to flip and complete the testing operation on the other side.
[0039] To further explain, arc-shaped grooves are provided at the four corners between the two clamping plates 44. Therefore, during the clamping process, the circuit board extends into the grooves, which provide support for the circuit board, thereby improving the stability of the circuit board clamping and rotation.
[0040] Each of the two clamping plates 44 has a pair of pulleys 45 installed on its front and rear sides, and the pulleys 45 slide inside the flip frame 43. The pulleys 45 reduce the friction between the clamping plates 44 and the flip frame 43, thereby improving the smoothness of the movement of the clamping plates 44.
[0041] Meanwhile, two sets of stops 48 are embedded and fixed in the front of the flip frame 43. The top of the left stop 48 and the bottom of the right stop 48 extend and protrude. On the opposite sides of the two clamping plates 44, there are moving blocks 47 that are opposite to the corresponding stops 48. When the push cylinder 46 drives the two sets of clamping blocks to move relative to each other, the moving blocks 47 will contact the stops 48, thereby limiting the movement through the moving blocks 47 and the stops 48.
[0042] Meanwhile, the top of the operating table 1 is fixed with limiting pillars 49 located on both sides of the mounting plate 412, and the right side of the flip frame 43 is fixed with a limiting block 410 that is in contact with one of the limiting pillars 49. When the servo motor 411 drives the flip frame 43 to rotate, it can be limited by the cooperation of the limiting pillars 49 and the limiting block 410, so that the flip frame 43 can drive the circuit board to flip accurately.
[0043] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0044] First, the circuit board to be tested is placed in the placement seat 35. The side-push cylinder 37 operates, driving the correction block 310 to move. With the cooperation of the protrusion 36, the circuit board is corrected. Then, the lead screw lateral movement device 2 drives the placement seat 35 to move close to the flipping assembly 4. Then, the cooperation of the first lead screw device 52, the second lead screw device 53, the vertical lead screw device 54 and the downward push cylinder 56 drives the corresponding clamping cylinder 57 to clamp and move the circuit board on the placement seat 35 into the flipping frame 43. Then, the push cylinder 46 drives the clamping plate 44 to clamp and limit the circuit board. Finally, the circuit board is moved by multi-directional movement. The moving component 5 drives the back plate 55 to move, while the push cylinder 62 drives the connecting plate 64, so that the flying probe tester 65 completes the test of the circuit board. After the test is completed, the flying probe tester 65 resets, and then the servo motor 411 runs, driving the flip frame 43 to rotate, thereby flipping the circuit board to the other side to complete the test. After the test is completed, the circuit board can be returned to the corresponding placement seat 35, and the clamping cylinder 57 on the other side can place the circuit board into the flip frame 43 for the next set of tests. Therefore, the efficiency of the test can be effectively improved and the damage to the circuit board can be reduced.
