Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of connector testing technology, and in particular relates to a connector positioning and testing fixture. Background Technology

[0002] Connectors typically have pins that are used to connect other components in a circuit, enabling current to be transmitted or signals to be passed between different devices. They come in a wide variety of types and applications and play a vital role in electronics, power, communications, and various other devices.

[0003] Currently, connectors are typically produced in batches, and the appearance inspection of the pins largely relies on traditional manual visual inspection. This inspection method is not only inefficient, labor-intensive, and costly, but also produces inconsistent quality. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a connector positioning and testing fixture, which positions the housing by clamping blocks and fixing blocks, and uses upper and lower testing cameras to test the pins, thereby improving the automation level, efficiency and quality of testing.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts a technical solution as follows: a connector positioning and detection fixture, including an upper detection camera, a lower detection camera, a carrier, and a translation mechanism for driving the carrier to move horizontally. The upper detection camera is located above the carrier, and the lower detection camera is located below the carrier. The translation mechanism, the upper detection camera, and the lower detection camera are all mounted on a worktable.

[0006] The carrier is provided with several positioning areas for positioning the connector. The positioning areas are arranged along the length of the carrier. The connector includes a housing and pins installed inside the housing. The pins protrude from the outside of the connector. The side of the pin protruding from the connector is defined as the front. The left and right sides of the positioning areas are respectively provided with fixing blocks and clamping blocks. The fixing blocks are fixed to the carrier, and the clamping blocks are fixed to the mounting base. The mounting base is connected to the push rod of the clamping cylinder. The clamping cylinder is fixed to the carrier. The clamping cylinder drives the clamping blocks to approach the housing. The housing is positioned by the clamping blocks and fixing blocks. The pins are detected by the upper detection camera and the lower detection camera, thereby improving the automation level of the detection, improving the detection efficiency and detection quality.

[0007] The positioning area is provided with a movable block and a limiting block on the front and rear sides, respectively. The limiting block is fixed to the carrier, and the movable block is installed on the sliding seat. The sliding seat is connected to the push rod of the limiting cylinder. The limiting cylinder is fixed to the carrier. After the product is placed in the positioning area, the limiting cylinder first pushes the movable block close to the housing to limit the housing in the front and rear direction. During the test, the limiting cylinder retracts and the movable block resets to avoid affecting the detection camera's detection of the pins.

[0008] Furthermore, the left and right sides of the housing are provided with arc surfaces, and both the fixing block and the clamping block are provided with arc-shaped grooves that match the arc surfaces, thereby making the positioning of the housing more stable.

[0009] Furthermore, the upper surface of the carrier is provided with left and right guide rails arranged in the left-right direction, and the mounting base is provided with a first groove that matches the left and right guide rails.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper surface of the carrier is provided with front and rear guide rails arranged along the front-rear direction, and the sliding seat is provided with a second groove that matches the front and rear guide rails.

[0011] Furthermore, the translation mechanism includes a translation drive motor and a translation lead screw. The translation drive motor is fixed to the carrier, and the output shaft of the translation drive motor is connected to the translation lead screw. The translation lead screw is threadedly connected to the carrier. The translation drive motor drives the lead screw to rotate, and the lead screw drives the carrier to move, thereby moving the pins of several connectors between the upper detection camera and the lower detection camera for detection.

[0012] Furthermore, the upper detection camera is mounted on the upper mounting bracket, which is fixed to the worktable, and the lower detection camera is mounted on the lower mounting bracket, which is fixed to the worktable.

[0013] Furthermore, the vehicle is equipped with a detection port that matches the lower detection camera.
