The tester 18 is directly electrically connected to the solder joints 23 in the workpiece structure 2 to be tested, and the electrical performance is used for inspection. This device can detect short circuits between multiple solder joints 23, and compared with traditional optical inspection, it will not produce false judgments.
[0022] Example 2:
[0023] Please see Figure 1-4 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. Based on the previous embodiment, five solder points 23 are provided on the circuit board 22. The first test piece 24 is fixed to the side wall of the housing 21 at the position of the solder point 23 at the end. The other four solder points 23 are fixed to the side wall of the housing 21 at the position of the remaining four solder points 23. The first test piece 24 is inserted into and electrically connected to the solder point 23 at the end. The four second test pieces 25 are inserted into and electrically connected to the remaining four solder points 23.
[0024] The first contact piece 27 is horizontally fixed to the side wall of the housing 21. The first contact piece 27 is electrically connected to the first test piece 24. An inner cavity 28 is opened inside the bottom end of the plug-in part 26. Four second contact pieces 29 are vertically fixed inside the inner cavity 28. The second contact pieces 29 are electrically connected to the second test piece 25. Two locking blocks 212 are fixed to the side wall of the housing 21. The two locking blocks 212 are locked to the side wall of the circuit board 22.
[0025] Four second probes 110 are fixed to the top surface of the tester 18. The tops of the four second probes 110 are located inside the socket 12. A first probe 19 is also fixed to the top surface of the tester 18. The first probe 19 penetrates the top platform 11. The second probes 110 and the first probe 19 are electrically connected to five solder points 23 on the circuit board 22 to perform the testing work.
[0026] The first probe 19 contacts and is electrically connected to the end of the first contact piece 27. The second probe 110 is located inside the inner cavity 28. The top of the second probe 110 contacts and is electrically connected to the second contact piece 29. The bottom of the inner cavity 28 is fixedly sleeved with a guide plate 210. Four guide holes 211 are vertically opened on the guide plate 210. The second probe 110 passes through the guide holes 211.
[0027] Four indicator lights 15 are fixedly sleeved on the top surface of the top platform 11. A power interface 16 is fixedly sleeved on the side wall of the machine body 1.

[0028] In use, the connector 26 of the workpiece structure 2 to be tested is inserted into the socket 12 on the top platform 11. This allows the four second probes 110 and one first probe 19 to be electrically connected to the five solder points 23 on the circuit board 22. After the housing 21 is pressed down to the bottom, the start button 14 is touched and pressed down, activating the starter 13 and initiating the test. The five solder points 23 are numbered A, B, C, D, and E from one side to the other. The workpiece structure 2 is then sequentially tested for short circuits between each pair of solder points AB, BC, CD, and DE. The tests between the four groups of solder points 23 are performed sequentially. Four indicator lights 15 correspond to the short circuit detection between the four groups of solder points 23. If any group of solder joints 23 passes the inspection, the corresponding indicator light 15 will light up green, and the buzzer will not sound. If a short circuit is detected between any group of solder joints 23, the corresponding indicator light 15 will light up red, and the buzzer will sound an alarm. When a short circuit occurs, the remaining untested solder joints 23 will stop being tested. If the short circuit tests between all four groups of solder joints 23 are completed and all are qualified, all four indicator lights 15 will be green, and the buzzer will not sound an alarm. This utility model uses the tester 18 to directly connect to the solder joints 23 in the structure 2 of the workpiece under test, and uses electrical performance to check the short circuit between multiple solder joints 23. Compared with traditional optical testing, it will not have misjudgment.
