[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a chip alignment module for an automated testing platform, which can quickly align and perform synchronous testing of multiple chips, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a chip alignment module of an automated testing platform, including a base plate, an alignment template, and multiple test seats. The test seats are arranged in a rectangular structure and are installed on the base plate by screws. The alignment template is arranged parallel to the base plate, and each test seat of the alignment template has a positioning hole that matches the length and width of the chip. Multiple pressure rollers for pressing the chip are provided on the surface of the alignment template. The base plate has horizontal grooves on both sides, and sliding plates are vertically installed on both sides of the alignment template. The sliding plates are slidably arranged in the grooves. A panel is installed at one end of the base plate located on the alignment template, and an electric push rod is installed at one end of each side plate. A connecting component is installed between the electric push rod and the sliding plate.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution, the connecting components all include a connecting plate, a positioning post, a compression spring, and a handle. The piston rod of the electric push rod is recessed to form a parallel surface, and each parallel surface is provided with an insertion hole. One end of each connecting plate is mounted on the slide plate, and the other end extends to the parallel surface. Each connecting plate is provided with a positioning hole. One end of each positioning post passes through the positioning hole and is inserted into the insertion hole, while the other end is set to the outside and is fixedly connected to the handle.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0019] All features disclosed in this specification, or all steps in all disclosed methods or processes, may be combined in any way, except for mutually exclusive features and / or steps.

[0020] Any feature disclosed in this specification (including any appended claims, abstract, and drawings) may be replaced by other equivalent or similar features for a similar purpose, unless specifically stated otherwise. That is, unless specifically stated otherwise, each feature is merely one example of a series of equivalent or similar features.

[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the chip alignment module of the automated testing platform of this utility model includes a base plate 1, an alignment template 3, and multiple test seats 2. The test seats 2 are arranged in a rectangular structure and are installed on the base plate 1 by screws. The alignment template 3 is arranged parallel to the base plate 1, and the alignment template 3 has a positioning port 4 that matches the length and width of the chip at each test seat 2. Multiple pressure rollers 5 for pressing the chip are provided on the surface of the alignment template 3. The base plate 1 has horizontal grooves on both sides, and the alignment template 3 has vertically installed slide plates 7 on both sides. The slide plates 7 are slidably arranged in the grooves. A panel 12 is installed at one end of the base plate 1 located at the alignment template 3, and an electric push rod 11 is installed at one end of each side panel. A connecting component is installed between the electric push rod 11 and the slide plate 7.

[0022] In this embodiment, the connecting components all include a connecting plate 8, a positioning post 15, a compression spring 9, and a handle 10. The piston rod of the electric push rod 11 is recessed to form a parallel surface 14, and the parallel surface 14 is provided with an insertion hole. One end of the connecting plate 8 is installed on the sliding plate 7, and the other end extends to the parallel surface 14. The connecting plate 8 is provided with a positioning hole. One end of the positioning post 15 passes through the positioning hole and is inserted into the insertion hole, and the other end is set to the outside and is fixedly connected to the handle 10. The compression spring 9 is sleeved on the outside of the positioning post 15. One end of the compression spring 9 is installed on the connecting plate 8, and the other end is installed on the handle 10.

[0023] When testing different chips, the alignment template needs to be replaced. To replace it, pull the positioning post outwards using the handle. After the positioning post is pulled out of the socket, the alignment template and the electric push rod can be separated, allowing the alignment template to be removed along the slide. After the alignment template is no longer obstructed, the test base can be removed from the base plate using an electric screwdriver, and the test base and alignment template for the corresponding chip can be installed. Other parts do not need to be replaced, and the replacement alignment template can be reconnected to the electric push rod.

[0024] In this embodiment, a fixing plate 6 is vertically installed on the base plate 1 opposite the pressure roller 5. A sealed bearing is embedded in the fixing plate 6. The roller shafts at both ends of the pressure roller 5 are installed in the inner ring of the sealed bearing. When the chip enters the lower end of the pressure roller, the pressure roller will rotate to avoid excessive friction, but the pressure roller will still apply a downward pressure to the chip.

[0025] In this embodiment, positioning grooves are provided on the inner side of the slide groove, and positioning strips 13 are installed on the inner side of the slide plate 7 opposite to the positioning grooves. The positioning strips 13 are slidably disposed in the positioning grooves. The positioning strips and positioning grooves can position the alignment template and prevent the alignment template from moving up and down.

[0026] In this embodiment, the upper surface of the panel 12 is flush with the upper surface of the test socket 2, so that the chip placed in the positioning port can be smoothly pushed onto the test socket.

[0027] In this embodiment, both the alignment template 3 and the panel 12 are made of high-strength plastic material, which reduces the hardness of the alignment template and the panel and reduces the probability of damaging the chip.

[0028] The chip can be placed in the positioning slot by a robotic arm or manually. During the placement process, the piston rod of the electric push rod needs to retract and pull the slide plate and the alignment template so that the alignment template can move to the surface of the panel, so that the top of the positioning slot is not blocked by the pressure roller, and the chip can be smoothly placed into the positioning slot.

[0029] After the chip placement is completed, the electric push rod can be activated again to extend the piston rod of the electric push rod and push the alignment template toward the test socket. The movement of the alignment template pushes the chip until the chip contacts the test socket. After the chip moves into place, the surface of the chip will be pressed by the pressure roller to ensure the contact stability between the chip and the test socket.

[0030] After the test is completed, the piston rod can continue to extend and drive the alignment template to continue to move. After the bottom surface of the alignment template is suspended, the chip can fall directly out through the opening below the positioning port. Therefore, a conveyor can be set on one side of the base plate so that the chip can fall onto the conveyor for transportation to the lower station.

[0031] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions conceived without inventive effort should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
