Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of testing equipment, and in particular relates to a testing device for Internet of Things (IoT) lighting fixtures. Background Technology

[0002] IoT lighting is a lighting system that connects traditional lighting equipment to the internet, enabling intelligent control, data collection, and automated operation. Existing IoT lighting typically connects to control terminals via built-in low-power wireless communication modules (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, and Z-Wave). Before leaving the factory, manufacturers generally conduct functional tests on IoT lighting fixtures to ensure their wireless communication performance and functionality meet factory standards.

[0003] Conventional testing equipment is generally open-structured, meaning that the product is placed in an open environment for testing. Therefore, when testing the wireless communication performance and functions of IoT lighting, unstable wireless signals around the testing equipment can interfere with the wireless signal connection between the IoT lighting and the testing equipment, thus affecting the accuracy of the test. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a testing device for Internet of Things (IoT) lighting fixtures to solve the technical problems described in the background section.

[0005] The testing equipment for the IoT lighting fixture includes:

[0006] The cabinet contains a test space enclosed by shielding partitions. The test space has a pick-up window for placing and retrieving products. The test space contains a carrier plate, on which a carrier and a wireless transceiver are mounted. The carrier has elastic conductive contacts. When the IoT lamp under test is placed on the carrier, the elastic conductive contacts make contact with the power supply and signal terminals of the IoT lamp to conduct electricity. The wireless transceiver is used to connect wirelessly with the IoT lamp.

[0007] The test host is electrically connected to the elastic conductive antenna and the wireless signal transceiver to enable the test host to obtain the status information of the IoT lighting fixtures.

[0008] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention achieves the following beneficial effects:

[0009] When testing the wireless communication performance and functions of IoT lighting fixtures, since the IoT lighting fixtures are located in the test space, and the wireless transceiver connected to the IoT lighting fixtures is also in the test space, which is enclosed by a shielding partition, the interference of unstable wireless signals around the test equipment can be effectively reduced when the test equipment is wirelessly connected to the IoT lighting fixtures through the wireless transceiver, thereby improving the accuracy of the test.

[0010] To further optimize the above technical solutions, they can be combined with one or more of the following implementation methods without conflict.

[0011] In some implementations, the carrier board is equipped with a power conditioner and a frequency modulator for electrical connection with the wireless transceiver;

[0012] Based on the above technical solution, it is possible to enable the wireless transceiver to transmit wireless signals of different frequency bands and power through the power regulator and frequency modulator to connect with IoT lighting fixtures, thereby testing the performance of IoT lighting fixtures under different frequency bands and signal strengths.

[0013] In some implementations, the test space is equipped with a door opening and closing slide rail and a door opening and closing power module. A signal shielding door that is driven and connected to the door opening and closing power module slides on the door opening and closing slide rail. The door opening and closing power module is used to drive the signal shielding door to move to cover the material picking window or move away from the material picking window.

[0014] Based on the above technical solution, after the IoT lighting fixture to be tested is placed into the test space through the material picking window, the door opening and closing power module drives the signal shielding door to move to cover the material picking window, thereby further isolating the test space from the outside world and further reducing the interference of unstable wireless signals around the test equipment.

[0015] In some implementations, a feeding / discharging slide rail and a feeding / discharging power module are installed in the test space. The carrier plate slides on the feeding / discharging slide rail and is connected to the feeding / discharging power module. The feeding / discharging power module is used to drive the carrier plate to move so that the carrier is sent out or sent into the test space from the material pick-up window.

[0016] Based on the above technical solution, when the IoT lamp to be tested needs to be placed into the test space, the infeed / outfeed power module drives the carrier plate to move, causing the carrier to be sent out from the pick-up window. At this time, the IoT lamp to be tested can be placed into the carrier. Subsequently, the infeed / outfeed power module drives the carrier plate to move, causing the carrier to be sent into the test space from the pick-up window. This achieves convenient and accurate placement of the IoT lamp to be tested in a specific position on the carrier and delivery into the test space. In addition, when the IoT lamp that has completed testing needs to be removed from the test space, the infeed / outfeed power module drives the carrier plate to move, causing the carrier to be sent out from the pick-up window. At this time, the IoT lamp that has completed testing can be removed from the carrier, thus achieving convenient removal of the IoT lamp from the test space.

[0017] In some implementations, limit blocks are installed on the feeding and discharging slide rails; based on the above technical solution, after the feeding and discharging power module drives the carrier plate to move and sends the carrier into the test space, the limit blocks contact the carrier plate to position the carrier, thereby realizing the positioning of the carrier.

[0018] In some implementations, the IoT lighting fixture is an LED light source board, and a magnet for attracting the LED light source board is installed inside the carrier. Based on the above technical solution, when the LED light source board is placed inside the carrier, the LED light source board can be attracted by the magnet, thereby fixing the LED light source board and making the elastic conductive contact angle stably contact the power supply terminal and signal terminal of the LED light source board to conduct electricity.

[0019] In some implementations, a lifting power module is installed on the top wall of the test space. The lifting power module is connected to a lifting plate, and a fixing block is installed on the lifting plate. The lifting power module is used to drive the lifting plate to cause the fixing block to press down on the IoT lamps inside the fixed carrier.

[0020] Based on the above technical solution, after the feeding and discharging power module drives the carrier plate to move and send the carrier into the test space, the lifting power module drives the lifting plate to drive the fixing block to press down and fix the IoT lamp in the carrier, thereby fixing the IoT lamp and making the elastic conductive contact angle stably contact the power supply terminal and signal terminal of the IoT lamp to conduct electricity.

[0021] In some implementations, the fixing block is fitted with a flexible rubber block for contact with IoT lighting fixtures;

[0022] Based on the above technical solution, when the lifting power module drives the lifting plate to press down the fixed block on the IoT lighting fixture inside the fixed carrier, it can effectively reduce the pressure damage to the IoT lighting fixture caused by the fixed block.

[0023] In some embodiments, the elastic block is made of transparent material, and a photosensitive cavity is provided inside the fixing block so that when the elastic block comes into contact with the IoT lamp, the light emitted by the IoT lamp passes through the elastic block and shines into the photosensitive cavity, and a photosensitive sensor connected to the test host signal is installed inside the photosensitive cavity.

[0024] Based on the above technical solution, the following beneficial effects can be further achieved:

[0025] 1. During the testing of the wireless communication performance and functions of IoT lighting fixtures, the wireless signal transmission status of IoT lighting fixtures can be obtained by monitoring changes in the light emitted by the IoT lighting fixtures.

[0026] 2. Because the elastic rubber block is made of transparent material and is attached to the IoT light fixture, the interference from external light can be reduced when the photosensor monitors the light changes of the IoT light fixture. Attached Figure Description

[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following description is provided with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown in the figure, this specific embodiment provides a testing device for IoT lighting fixtures, which includes a cabinet 1 and a testing host 11. The cabinet 1 has a testing space 2 enclosed by a shielding partition, which can be made of metal sheet or foil to prevent the propagation of electromagnetic waves and achieve electromagnetic shielding. The testing space 2 has a material handling window 21 for placing and retrieving products. A door opening / closing slide rail 22 and a door opening / closing power module 23 are installed outside the testing space 2. A signal shielding door 24, which is connected to the door opening / closing power module 23, slides on the door opening / closing slide rail 22. The door opening / closing power module 23 drives the signal shielding door 24 to move to cover or move away from the material handling window 21. The door opening / closing power module 23 can be a cylinder, a lead screw module, or an electric cylinder, etc.

[0038] The test space 2 is equipped with a feeding / discharging slide rail 5 and a feeding / discharging power module 51. A carrier plate 3 slides on the feeding / discharging slide rail 5. The carrier plate 3 is connected to the feeding / discharging power module 51 for transmission. The feeding / discharging power module 51 is used to drive the carrier plate 3 to move. The feeding / discharging power module 51 can be a belt module, a lead screw module, or a cylinder, etc. A limit block 52 is installed on the feeding / discharging slide rail 5. The limit block 52 is used to contact the carrier plate 3 to achieve positioning.

[0039] The carrier plate 3 is equipped with a carrier 4, a wireless transceiver 31, a power regulator 32, and a frequency modulator 33. The carrier 4 contains a flexible conductive contact 41. When the IoT lamp under test is placed on the carrier 4, the flexible conductive contact 41 contacts and energizes the power supply and signal terminals of the IoT lamp. The wireless transceiver 31 is used to connect wirelessly to the IoT lamp. The power regulator 32 and the frequency modulator 33 are electrically connected to the wireless transceiver 31. If the IoT lamp is an LED light source board, the carrier 4 contains a magnet 42 for attracting the LED light source board.

[0040] A lifting power module 6 is installed on the top wall of the test space 2. The lifting power module 6 can be a cylinder, a lead screw module, or an electric cylinder, etc. The lifting power module 6 is connected to a lifting plate 61. A fixing block 62 is installed on the lifting plate 61. The lifting power module 6 is used to drive the lifting plate 61 to drive the fixing block 62 to press down the IoT lamp in the fixed carrier 4. The fixing block 62 is equipped with an elastic rubber block 63 for contact with the IoT lamp. The elastic rubber block 63 is made of transparent material. A photosensitive cavity 64 is provided in the fixing block 62 so that when the elastic rubber block 63 contacts the IoT lamp, the light emitted by the IoT lamp passes through the elastic rubber block 63 and shines into the photosensitive cavity 64. A photosensitive sensor 65 connected to the test host 11 is installed in the photosensitive cavity 64.

[0041] The test host 11 is connected to the elastic conductive antenna 41, the wireless transceiver 31, the power regulator 32, the frequency modulator 33 and the photosensitive sensor 65 to enable the test host 11 to obtain the status information of the Internet of Things lighting fixture.

[0042] The following is a description of the operation of a testing device for an IoT lighting fixture as described in this specific embodiment.

[0043] When testing IoT lighting fixtures, the infeed / outfeed power module 51 drives the carrier plate 3 to move, causing the carrier 4 to be sent out from the pick-up window 21. The IoT lighting fixture to be tested can then be placed into the carrier 4. At this point, the elastic conductive contact 41 contacts and energizes the power supply and signal terminals of the IoT lighting fixture. Subsequently, the infeed / outfeed power module 51 drives the carrier plate 3 to move, causing the carrier 4 to be sent from the pick-up window 21 into the test space 2 until the limit block 52 contacts the carrier plate 3 to position the carrier 4. Afterward, the door opening / closing power module 23 drives the signal screen. The shielding door 24 moves to cover the material picking window 21 to isolate the test space 2 from the outside world. At the same time, the lifting power module 6 drives the lifting plate 61 to push the fixing block 62 down on the IoT lamp in the fixing carrier 4. At this time, the elastic rubber block 63 comes into contact with the IoT lamp. After that, the test host 11 connects with the IoT lamp through the wireless signal transceiver 31 and the elastic conductive contact 41. At the same time, the test host 11 monitors the light changes of the IoT lamp through the photosensitive sensor 65, thereby realizing the wireless communication performance and function test of the IoT lamp.

[0044] After the IoT lighting fixture has been tested, the lifting power module 6 drives the lifting plate 61 to raise and reset the fixed block 62. Then, the door opening and closing power module 23 drives the signal shielding door 24 to move away from the material picking window 21. After that, the material feeding and discharging power module 51 drives the carrier plate 3 to move so that the carrier 4 is sent out from the material picking window 21. At this time, the IoT lighting fixture that has completed the test can be taken out from the carrier 4.
