Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the protection scope of this application.

[0030] In related technologies, the method of testing the clips of a socket is usually to connect them to a plug and test whether there is power, thereby determining whether the socket clips are compliant. However, this testing method cannot detect whether the clamping gap of the socket clips is compliant, and the clamping gap of the socket clips is closely related to their durability and reliability.

[0031] In view of the above problems, this application provides a socket clip detection device to at least partially solve the above problems.

[0032] According to the first aspect of this application, a socket clip detection device is described, please refer to... Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of a socket clip detection device provided in an embodiment of this application, wherein the socket clip to be detected is shown. Figure 2 yes Figure 1 Exploded view of part of the provided socket clip testing device. Figure 3 yes Figure 1A three-dimensional structural diagram of another state of the provided socket clip testing device is provided, in which the test result of the socket clip to be tested is shown. The socket clip testing device includes: a base 20 having a fixing part 21 for fixing the socket clip 10 to be tested, the socket clip 10 to be tested having a clamping gap for clamping plug pins; a fixture mounting base 30 disposed on the base 20; and a fixture 40 slidably mounted on the fixture mounting base 30, configured to align with the clamping gap, and moving toward the clamping gap under the action of an external force to test the socket clip 10 to be tested.

[0033] In related technologies, when using a socket, the plug's pins are typically inserted into the clamping gap of the socket clip, and a connected circuit is formed when the sidewall of the clamping gap contacts the pins. However, when selecting sockets and plugs, in addition to the requirement of power supply, the connection strength and reliability of the socket and plug are also important selection criteria. In this embodiment, by aligning the gauge 40 with the clamping gap of the socket clip 10 to be tested, and by allowing the gauge 40 to move into the clamping gap under external force, the clamping gap can be tested using the gauge 40 to determine the specific condition of the clamping gap of the socket clip 10 to be tested, such as whether it is qualified, too narrow, or too wide. This facilitates the processing of the socket clip based on the test results, preventing the use of non-compliant socket clips and helping to improve the reliability of the socket.

[0034] In some embodiments of this application, the fixture mounting base 30 includes a guide 31 and a base 32. The guide 31 is connected to the base 20, and the base 32 is slidably disposed on the guide 31 along the extending direction of the guide 31. The fixture 40 is slidably mounted on the base 32.

[0035] This design allows for an adjustable distance between the fixture mounting base 30 and the base 20, facilitating flexible adjustments as needed. For example, when the socket clip 10 to be tested is placed on the fixing part 21, the fixture mounting base 30 can be moved away from the base 20 to facilitate placement of the socket clip 10. Furthermore, since the socket clip 10 to be tested comes in various sizes, the adjustable distance between the fixture mounting base 30 and the base 20 allows the fixture 40 to test various specifications of socket clips 10. Therefore, the socket clip testing device provided in this application has a wide range of applications.

[0036] In some embodiments of this application, the socket clip detection device has multiple gauges 40. This allows multiple socket clips 10 to be detected simultaneously, which helps to improve detection efficiency.

[0037] In some embodiments of this application, the base 32 has a first through hole 321a, and the gauge 40 has a detection section 41. The thickness of the detection section 41 is greater than the clamping gap, and the detection section 41 is slidably inserted through the first through hole 321a and configured to align with the clamping gap. The external force is less than the minimum force required to cause lateral deformation of the socket clip 10 to be tested.

[0038] In this embodiment, the thickness of the detection segment 41 is greater than the clamping gap, and the external force is less than the minimum force required to cause lateral deformation of the socket clip 10 to be tested. This avoids the situation where the detection segment 41 enters the clamping gap under the action of external force when the thickness of the detection segment 41 of the gauge 40 is less than the clamping gap, thus helping to improve the accuracy of the test results. At the same time, the detection segment 41 is slidably inserted through the first through hole 321a, so that when the clamping gap is less than the thickness of the detection segment 41, the detection segment 41 will slide within the first through hole 321a under the obstruction of the socket clip 10 to be tested.

[0039] In some embodiments of this application, a plurality of gauges 40 are mounted on the gauge mounting base 30, and the plurality of gauges 40 are aligned.

[0040] In this embodiment, if the clamping gap of a socket clip 10 to be tested is smaller than the corresponding detection segment 41, the detection segment 41 will be blocked by the corresponding socket clip 10 to be tested and cannot move further. If the detection segment 41 is fixedly connected to the base 32, other detection segments 41 will also be unable to move further, making it impossible for other detection segments 41 to complete the test. Based on this, in this embodiment, the detection segment 41 of the gauge 40 is slidably inserted into the first through hole 321a, so that when the clamping gap of some socket clips 10 to be tested is smaller than the corresponding detection segment 41, these detection segments 41 can slide within the first through hole 321a, preventing other detection segments 41 from being unable to complete the test, and helping to improve the fault tolerance and reliability of the socket clip testing device provided in this application.

[0041] In some embodiments of this application, the base 32 further has a second through hole 322a communicating with the first through hole 321a. The second through hole 322a is located on the side of the first through hole 321a away from the base 20. The gauge 40 further has a result segment 42 connected to the detection segment 41. In at least one direction parallel to the base 20, the size of the result segment 42 is larger than the size of the detection segment 41. The result segment 42 is slidably disposed in the second through hole 322a.

[0042] With this approach, when the detection segment 41 is blocked by the socket clip 10 to be tested, the result segment 42 will protrude from the second through hole 322a. In this way, the detection result of the socket clip 10 to be tested can be directly determined based on the position of the result segment 42 of the inspection tool 40. This method of determining the detection result is not only simple in structure, but also presents the detection result clearly and intuitively, thus helping to improve the detection efficiency.

[0043] In some embodiments of this application, the depth of the second through hole 322a is less than or equal to the length of the result segment 42. This ensures that when the detection segment 41 of the gauge 40 is blocked by the socket clip 10 to be tested, the result segment 42 can protrude from the second through hole 322a, guaranteeing that the detection result can be observed, reducing the error rate of the detection result, and helping to improve the reliability of the socket clip detection device provided in this application.

[0044] In some embodiments of this application, the cross-sectional shape of the second through hole 322a is U-shaped, and the cross-sectional shape of the result segment 42 is also U-shaped. This reduces the probability of the result segment 42 skewing when sliding within the second through hole 322a, thereby reducing the possibility of the result segment 42 getting stuck with the second through hole 322a and helping to improve the reliability of the socket clip detection device.

[0045] In some embodiments of this application, the base 32 includes an upper housing 322 and a lower housing 321 connected to each other, a first through hole 321a is formed on the lower housing 321, and a second through hole 322a is formed on the upper housing 322.

[0046] In this embodiment, by setting the first through hole 321a and the second through hole 322a in the upper housing 322 and the lower housing 321 respectively, and the detection section 41 of the inspection tool 40 passing through the first through hole 321a, the lower housing 321 can be replaced according to the specifications of the socket clip to be tested, so as to be applicable to the testing of various specifications of socket clips 10 to be tested, which helps to expand the applicability of the socket clip testing device provided in this application.

[0047] In some embodiments of this application, the guide member 31 includes a first guide rod 311 and a second guide rod 312 arranged in parallel, and the two ends of the seat 32 are slidably sleeved on the first guide rod 311 and the second guide rod 312.

[0048] In this embodiment, by connecting the two ends of the seat 32 to the first guide rod 311 and the second guide rod 312 respectively, the distance between the seat 32 and the base 20 can be adjusted. Compared with connecting the middle of the seat 32 to the base 20 using guide rods, the connection between the two ends of the seat 32 and the base 20 using guide rods has higher connection stability, which reduces the probability of the seat 32 getting stuck during movement and helps to improve the reliability of the socket clip detection device provided in this application.

[0049] In some embodiments of this application, the base 32 has connecting portions at both ends. The first guide rod 311 and the second guide rod 312 both include a connecting rod 311a and an extension rod 311b that are sleeved together. The cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting rod 311a is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the extension rod 311b. The connecting rod 311a is connected to the base 20, and the connecting portion is slidably sleeved on the extension rod 311b.

[0050] In this embodiment, the seat 32 is connected to the extension rod 311b, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the extension rod 311b is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting rod 311a connected to the base 20. This allows the connecting rod 311a to limit the movement distance of the seat 32 in the length direction of the guide rod. At the same time, this application ensures that the sum of the heights of the connecting rod 311a and the connecting part in the direction perpendicular to the base 20 is equal to the height of the gauge 40. This ensures that when the detection section 41 of the gauge 40 contacts the base 20, the result section 42 of the gauge 40 will not protrude from the second through hole 322a, thereby improving the accuracy of the detection results.

[0051] In some embodiments of this application, the socket clip detection device further includes a reset device (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the first guide rod 311 and the second guide rod 312, and is configured to restore the fixture mounting base 30 to its initial position.

[0052] In some embodiments of this application, the reset device is a spring, which is sleeved on the extension rod 311b.

[0053] In some embodiments of this application, the fixing part 21 is a mounting groove formed in the base 20.

[0054] In some embodiments of this application, the cross-section of the mounting groove matches the outer contour of the socket clip 10 to be tested. This approach allows for two advantages: firstly, the mounting groove can be used to fix the socket clip 10 to be tested; secondly, the mounting groove can be used to verify the outer contour of the socket clip 10 to be tested. Only socket clips 10 that meet the dimensional requirements can be placed in the mounting groove. Therefore, the socket clip testing device provided in this application can not only detect the clamping gap of the socket clip 10 to be tested, but also its external dimensions.

[0055] When using the socket clip testing device provided in this application to test the socket clip 10 to be tested, the distance between the fixture mounting base 30 and the base 20 is adjusted by the first guide rod 311 and the second guide rod 312 to facilitate the placement of the socket clip 10 to be tested. After the socket clip 10 to be tested is placed into the fixing part 21, the fixture mounting base 30 is pressed against the socket clip 10 to be tested by external force so that the fixture 40 can be used to test the socket clip 10 to be tested.

Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more features.
