[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0033] The following is combined with Figures 1-2 The present invention provides a detailed description of the charging port short-circuit burn-out test device provided by the present invention through specific embodiments and application scenarios.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a charging port short circuit protection test device, including: a charging power supply 1, an appliance 2, an ammeter 3, a temperature measuring element 4, and a test host 5;
[0035] The charging power supply 1 is configured to be electrically connected to the charging port 1001 of the electronic device 100; the device 2 is used to add test liquid to the charging port 1001 when the electronic device 100 is charging, so as to cause the charging port 1001 to be short-circuited; the ammeter 3 is used to detect the charging current of the electronic device 100 before and after the charging port 1001 is short-circuited; the temperature measuring element 4 is used to collect the temperature of the electronic device 100 before and after the charging port 1001 is short-circuited; the test host 5 is communicatively connected to the ammeter 3 and the temperature measuring element 4 respectively.
[0036] It is understood that the electronic device 100 used for short-circuit protection testing of the charging port in this embodiment can be a smartphone, a learning machine, a scanning pen, etc., and the charging port 1001 can be a USB-A interface, a USB-C interface (Type-C interface), or a Lightning interface, without any specific limitation.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment is equipped with a charging cable 200 adapted to the charging port 1001 of the electronic device 100. The charging power supply 1 is plugged into the first end of the charging cable 200, and the second end of the charging cable 200 is plugged into the charging port 1001 of the electronic device 100. Thus, the charging power supply 1 and the charging port 1001 of the electronic device 100 can be conveniently connected based on the charging cable 200. The charging power supply 1 can be a power bank or an AC / DC converter.
[0038] The ammeter 3 can be a Hall sensor or a digital ammeter with a communication interface to conveniently upload the detected current data to the test host 5 in real time.
[0039] To facilitate the detection of the heat generated by the electronic device 100 when the charging port 1001 is short-circuited, the temperature sensing element 4 can be a non-contact temperature measuring instrument used to detect the thermal radiation of an object, such as an infrared thermometer, laser thermometer, spectrometer, and colorimetric thermometer, etc., without specific limitations. The temperature sensing element 4 is equipped with a communication interface that connects to the test host 5, so that the temperature data detected by the temperature sensing element 4 can be uploaded to the test host 5 in real time.
[0040] Apparatus 2 can be a syringe, measuring cup, etc. The tester can use apparatus 2 to add test liquid at a set frequency, such as every 10 minutes, to conduct a short circuit protection test for the charging port. When conducting multiple short circuit protection tests for the charging port, it should be ensured that the amount of test liquid added to the charging port 1001 using apparatus 2 is consistent each time. The test liquid can be a conductive liquid, such as water and soluble salt solutions such as sodium chloride (NaCl), potassium nitrate (KNO3), and copper sulfate (CuSO4).
[0041] In practical applications, when the charging power supply 1 is charging the electronic device 100 normally, the charging current detected by the ammeter 3 is usually a stable current value, which can be labeled as I1. The temperature of the electronic device 100 is approximately a stable temperature value, which can be labeled as T1. After adding test liquid to the charging port 1001, the charging port 1001 short-circuits, and the charging current detected by the ammeter 3 will increase significantly, for example, the charging current will increase from I1 to I2. If the short-circuit protection structure near the charging port 1001 does not fail, the temperature of the electronic device 100 will remain near T1 for a period of time. However, if the short-circuit protection structure near the charging port 1001 fails, the temperature of the electronic device 100 will increase sharply for a period of time. For example, when the temperature of the electronic device 100 exceeds T2 (T2 is greater than T1), the electronic device 100 will burn out due to high temperature. Thus, the test host 5 can make a relatively accurate judgment on the reliability of the short-circuit protection of the charging port 1001 based on the charging current and temperature before and after the short circuit of the charging port 1001.
[0042] As can be seen from the above, the charging port short-circuit burn-out test device shown in this utility model, by configuring a charging power supply 1, an instrument 2, an ammeter 3, a temperature measuring element 4, and a test host 5, can use the charging power supply 1 to charge the electronic device 100. During the charging process, the instrument 2 adds test liquid to the charging port 1001 of the electronic device 100 to cause a short circuit in the charging port 1001. The ammeter 3 can detect the charging current of the electronic device 100 before and after the short circuit in the charging port 1001, and the temperature measuring element 4 can collect the temperature of the electronic device 100 before and after the short circuit in the charging port 1001. Then, the test host 5 analyzes the data detected by the ammeter 3 and the temperature measuring element 4 to make a relatively accurate judgment on the reliability of the short-circuit burn-out protection of the charging port 1001. This test operation is simple and convenient, realizing convenient short-circuit burn-out protection testing of the charging port 1001. It eliminates the need for testers to continuously observe the overall status of the electronic device 100 during the test, reducing the workload of testers and ensuring the accuracy of the test results.
[0043] It should be noted that the test host 5 in this embodiment can be a device capable of executing simple logic judgment programs, such as a laptop computer or an industrial control computer. The process of using the test host 5 to analyze the data detected by the ammeter 3 and the temperature measuring element 4 only involves comparing the data of the charging port 1001 before and after the short circuit, which is a conventional technical means in this field and does not involve any improvement to the method.
[0044] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the testing device also includes a test stand 6, which includes a placement platform 61 and a collection tank 62.
[0045] The placement platform 61 is used to place the electronic device 100, and the collection tank 62 is used to collect the test liquid flowing out from the placement platform 61.
[0046] Understandably, the collection tank 62 can be configured to face upwards. By collecting the test liquid flowing out of the placement platform 61 in a concentrated manner through the collection tank 62, the test liquid can be prevented from being scattered on the placement platform 61, effectively avoiding a messy test surface, which is conducive to building a user-friendly test environment and ensuring the quality of test results.
[0047] For example, a collection port for discharging test liquid can be provided on the placement platform 61, with the liquid outlet of the collection port extending into the collection tank 62.
[0048] Of course, a purging mechanism or a drainage structure can also be provided on the placement stage 61 to collect the test liquid on the placement stage 61 into the collection tank 62 based on the purging mechanism or drainage structure.
[0049] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the placement platform 61 includes: a body 611 having a flow guide slope 6101, on which an electronic device 100 is placed, and the lower end of the flow guide slope 6101 extends toward the collection tank 62.
[0050] It is understandable that the body 611 can be configured as a triangular structure, with the bottom surface of the body 611 placed on the ground or other horizontal foundation, and the side surface of the body 611 forming a flow guide slope 6101.
[0051] When the electronic device 100 is a scanning pen, the scanning pen can be set on the guiding slope 6101 along the extension direction of the guiding slope 6101, and the end of the scanning pen with the charging port 1001 is set upward so that the test liquid can be added to the charging port 1001 to cause the charging port 1001 to be short-circuited.
[0052] In practical applications, the collection tank 62 can be connected to the area of the main body 611 corresponding to the lower end of the guide slope 6101 to ensure that the lower end of the guide slope 6101 extends into the collection tank 62. Thus, when the device 2 adds test liquid to the charging port 1001, a portion of the test liquid flows towards the area where the charging port 1001 is located, while the remaining portion that spills onto the guide slope 6101 flows along the guide slope 6101 under its own gravity and is finally collected in the collection tank 62.
[0053] Furthermore, a hydrophobic coating, such as a hydrophobic nanofilm, can be provided on the guide slope 6101. This design ensures that the test liquid dripping onto the hydrophobic coating can quickly roll into the collection tank 62.
[0054] In some embodiments, the angle of inclination of the guide slope 6101 relative to the horizontal plane is 30° to 60°. For example, the angle of inclination of the guide slope 6101 relative to the horizontal plane can be 30°, 45°, 60° and other suitable angles.
[0055] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, in order to ensure that the electronic device 100 is reliably placed on the guide slope 6101 during the test, the placement platform 61 further includes a fixing member 612, which is connected to the body 611 to fix the electronic device 100 on the guide slope 6101.
[0056] For example, the fixing member 612 can be a pressure plate, which includes a first fixing section, a holding section, and a second fixing section. The first fixing section, the holding section, and the second fixing section are connected in sequence. The first fixing section and the second fixing section are detachably connected to the flow guiding slope 6101, and the holding section presses against the side of the electronic device 100 opposite to the flow guiding slope 6101. The holding section can be configured as a "U"-shaped structure adapted to the electronic device 100.
[0057] In some embodiments, the flow guide slope 6101 is provided with a positioning groove, which is configured to accommodate at least a portion of the electronic device 100 to position the electronic device 100 on the flow guide slope 6101.
[0058] It is understood that the positioning groove has a groove-shaped structure corresponding to the electronic device 100. By using the positioning groove to accommodate the electronic device 100, the electronic device 100 can be positioned on the guide slope 6101 without the need to use related accessories to fix the electronic device 100. The operation is simple and convenient.
[0059] For example, when the electronic device 100 is a smartphone, the positioning groove is a rectangular groove adapted to the smartphone; when the electronic device 100 is a scanning pen, the positioning groove is a strip-shaped groove adapted to the smartphone.
[0060] In some embodiments, in order to prevent the test liquid applied by the device 2 from escaping to the side of the placement platform 61, a first baffle and a second baffle can be provided on the flow guide slope 6101; the first baffle and the second baffle are spaced apart from each other and both extend toward the collection tank 62 along the extension direction of the flow guide slope 6101; wherein, the area between the first baffle and the second baffle of the flow guide slope 6101 is used to place the electronic device 100.
[0061] It is understood that this embodiment can utilize the blocking effect of the first and second baffles to ensure that the test liquid can only flow downward along the guide slope 6101 until it reaches the collection tank 62, and the test liquid will not flow to other areas of the placement platform 61.
[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the device 2 includes a syringe, and the test solution injected into the charging port 1001 by the syringe is a NaCl solution.
[0063] Understandably, by configuring the device 2 as a syringe, it is convenient to apply the test liquid to the area where the charging port 1001 is located using the syringe; since the side of the syringe is usually provided with graduation lines, the amount of test liquid applied to the charging port 1001 each time can be precisely controlled by the syringe.
[0064] Meanwhile, using NaCl solution as the test solution facilitates the application of NaCl solution's good conductivity. When the NaCl solution is added to the area where the charging port 1001 is located, it causes the charging port 1001 to quickly short-circuit. Since the NaCl solution exhibits the best conductivity at a concentration of 24%, a 24% NaCl solution is preferred as the test solution.
[0065] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1As shown, the temperature measuring element 4 includes two infrared thermal imagers, which are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the electronic device 100 to detect the temperature of the front and back of the electronic device 100.
[0066] For example, two infrared thermal imagers can be fixedly mounted on both sides of the placement platform 61 using brackets or other mounting structures, with the detection end of one infrared thermal imager facing the front of the electronic device 100 and the detection end of the other infrared thermal imager facing the back of the electronic device 100.
[0067] The two infrared thermal imagers can be configured to be set horizontally opposite each other, and both infrared thermal imagers extend towards the charging port 1001 of the electronic device 100.
[0068] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, in order to facilitate the testing personnel to intuitively observe the test data of the ammeter 3 and the temperature measuring element 4, the test host 5 has a display screen, which is used to display the data collected by the ammeter 3 and the temperature measuring element 4.
[0069] The test host 5 also includes a host, which is connected to the display screen. The ammeter 3 and the temperature measuring element 4 can be connected to the host via cables.
[0070] In some embodiments, the testing device further includes a housing and a door for controlling the opening and closing of the housing, with the charging power supply 1, ammeter 3, temperature measuring element 4 and test bench 6 respectively disposed inside the housing.
[0071] It is understandable that by placing the charging power supply 1, ammeter 3, temperature measuring element 4, and test bench 6 inside the enclosure, it is convenient to arrange the charging power supply 1, ammeter 3, temperature measuring element 4, and test bench 6 within the enclosure. Vias can be provided on the enclosure to allow for the routing of cables for communication between the test host 5 and the ammeter 3 and temperature measuring element 4.
[0072] In actual testing, the door can be opened first to add test fluid to the charging port 1001 through the device 2. Then, the door can be closed to ensure that the electronic device 100 under test is stored in the box to prevent accidental situations such as fire or explosion of the electronic device 100 during the test from affecting the test personnel.
[0073] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
