Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to test cabinets, specifically to an ATE cabinet with adjustable mounting beams. Background Technology

[0002] ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) cabinets are specialized cabinets used for integrating and deploying automated test systems, and are currently widely used in electronics manufacturing, semiconductors, automotive, aerospace, and other fields. In recent years, with the rapid development of industrial automation and the emergence of various electronic products, the demand for ATE cabinets in the industry has been increasing. Due to the diversity of the types and functions of the tested items, the test devices deployed inside the ATE cabinets are also different. To ensure the accuracy of performance testing of the tested items, different types of ATE cabinets have emerged on the market to adapt to the integration and installation of corresponding test devices, but this has also increased the design and manufacturing costs of the products.

[0003] To address these issues, operators select different types and sizes of connectors to connect the test devices to the cabinet, thereby integrating different test devices and improving compatibility between the cabinet and the test devices. However, this method is only suitable for installing test devices corresponding to a specific type of test item. When changing to a different type of test item, if the type and quantity of corresponding test devices change, the above steps must be repeated to select and install the corresponding connectors and test devices, leading to reduced installation and testing efficiency. Furthermore, the connectors are often sourced locally based on site conditions, and the stability of the connection cannot be guaranteed, potentially causing errors in the test results.

[0004] In addition, the existing ATE cabinets lack cable management devices, resulting in a chaotic arrangement of connection cables for various test devices, which in turn affects the accuracy of test results. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the technical problems of high design and manufacturing costs of existing ATE cabinets, low installation efficiency of test devices, and the fact that the installation method of existing test devices can easily affect the accuracy of test results, and to provide an ATE cabinet with an adjustable mounting beam.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A special feature of an ATE cabinet with adjustable mounting beams is that:

[0008] Includes the cabinet, multiple first mounting beams, and multiple second mounting beams;

[0009] The cabinet includes an upper cover plate, a lower base plate, and four parallel columns of the same height. The upper cover plate and the lower base plate are both rectangular structures, arranged in parallel, and installed opposite each other at the ends of the four columns. The four columns are located at the four corners of the upper cover plate and the lower base plate. The upper cover plate, the lower base plate, and the four columns form a frame structure, and the interior of the frame structure is used to accommodate the test devices.

[0010] Multiple first mounting beams and multiple second mounting beams are located between two columns on the side of the cabinet. They are all long strip structures, and their lengths are adapted to the height of the columns. Each of the long strip structures has a first folded edge at both ends along its length and a second folded edge on both sides. Both the first and second folded edges face outwards from the frame structure. The long strip structures are detachably connected to the upper cover plate and the lower base plate through the first folded edges.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes multiple tie beams, which are vertically installed between two adjacent first mounting beams or two adjacent second mounting beams, or vertically installed between a first mounting beam or a second mounting beam and an adjacent column;

[0012] The crossbeam for binding wires has multiple mounting holes for passing through binding wires to bundle and organize the connecting cables of the test devices.

[0013] Furthermore, the two ends of the tie beam in the horizontal direction are respectively provided with connecting ears, which are connected to the corresponding first mounting beam, second mounting beam or column through the connecting ears.

[0014] Furthermore, the two ends of the tie beam in the vertical direction are respectively provided with a third folded edge that turns outward.

[0015] Furthermore, multiple first mounting holes are provided on the side of two adjacent columns that are close to each other, from top to bottom or from bottom to top; multiple second mounting holes are evenly distributed on the long strip structure, the first folded edge and the second folded edge; and corresponding third mounting holes are provided at the connection between the lower surface of the upper cover plate and the upper surface of the lower base plate and the first folded edge.

[0016] Furthermore, the upper cover plate, lower base plate, and four columns are an integral structure.

[0017] Furthermore, both the first mounting beam and the second mounting beam are made of carbon steel.

[0018] Furthermore, casters are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the lower base plate.

[0019] The advantages of this utility model compared to the prior art are:

[0020] 1. This utility model provides an ATE cabinet with adjustable mounting beams, including a cabinet body, multiple first mounting beams, and multiple second mounting beams. The multiple first mounting beams and multiple second mounting beams are respectively located between two columns on the side of the cabinet body. They are all long strip structures, and each of the two ends of the long strip structure is provided with a first folded edge.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] To make the objectives, advantages and features of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides an ATE cabinet with adjustable mounting beams, including a cabinet body 1, multiple first mounting beams 2 and multiple second mounting beams 3.

[0033] The cabinet 1 includes an upper cover plate 11, a lower base plate 12, and four parallel uprights 13 of uniform height. Both the upper cover plate 11 and the lower base plate 12 are rectangular structures, arranged parallel to each other and mounted opposite each other at the ends of the four uprights 13. The four uprights 13 are located at the four corners of the upper cover plate 11 and the lower base plate 12. The upper cover plate 11, the lower base plate 12, and the four uprights 13 form a cuboid frame structure. The interior of the frame structure is used to house test devices corresponding to the tested object, such as... Figure 2 As shown, A, B, C, and D are all test devices. Above A is a tray that can hold some tools or devices required for testing. The installation positions of each device under test can be interchanged as needed to achieve the best test results.

[0034] Multiple first mounting beams 2 and multiple second mounting beams 3 are located between two uprights 13 on the side of the cabinet 1. Both the first mounting beams 2 and the second mounting beams 3 are elongated structures, and their lengths are adapted to the height of the uprights 13 (i.e., they are set parallel to the uprights 13 and their heights are matched). Each end of the elongated structure along its length has a first flange 21, and each side along its width has a second flange 22, with both flanges 21 and 22 facing outwards from the frame structure. The elongated structure is detachably connected to the upper cover plate 11 and the lower base plate 12 via the first flanges 21. The specific positions of the first mounting beams 2 and 3 on the cabinet 1 can be adjusted according to the position and size of the test device to ensure stable installation of the test device. It can also be used to expand and install other structural components within the cabinet 1.

[0035] In this embodiment, there are two first mounting beams 2 and two second mounting beams 3, which are installed on the left and right sides of the cabinet 1 respectively. In the whole machine, they not only directly bear the weight of various test devices, but also connect the upper cover plate 11 and the lower base plate 12 together, thus strengthening the cabinet 1.

[0036] This embodiment also includes multiple tie beams 4, which can be vertically installed between two adjacent first mounting beams 2 or two adjacent second mounting beams 3, or vertically installed between a first mounting beam 2 or a second mounting beam 3 and an adjacent column 13, as needed.

[0037] The wire-binding beam 4 is provided with multiple wire-binding mounting holes 41. The wires are passed through the corresponding wire-binding mounting holes 41 to bundle and organize the test device connection cables, thereby avoiding the influence of the test device cables on the accuracy of the test results.

[0038] The two ends of the wire-binding beam 4 in the horizontal direction are respectively provided with connecting ears 42, which are connected to the corresponding first mounting beam 2, second mounting beam 3 or column 13 through the connecting ears 42, thereby ensuring the stability of the wire-binding beam 4.

[0039] In addition, the two ends of the wire binding beam 4 in the vertical direction are respectively provided with outward-folding third folds 43 to ensure the support strength of the wire binding beam 4.

[0040] In this embodiment, each of the two adjacent columns 13 has a plurality of first mounting holes 131 on its side facing each other, either from top to bottom or from bottom to top. The first mounting holes 131 on the two columns 13 located on the front side of the cabinet 1 are mainly used for mounting one end face of the test device. The first mounting holes 131 on the two columns 13 located on the rear side of the cabinet 1 are mainly used for mounting the wire-tying beam 4.

[0041] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, considering the size characteristics of the PS cabinet and U-based devices, this embodiment has multiple second mounting holes 23 evenly arranged on the elongated structure, the first folded edge 21, and the second folded edge 22, respectively. This allows for free adjustment of the positions of the first mounting beam 2 and the second mounting beam 3 within the cabinet 1, thereby adapting to the installation position of the test devices. The second mounting holes 23 on the elongated structure are mainly used for mounting the test devices on the side or the other end face, and are generally opened in series in 0.5U increments, meaning the hole diameter is generally [missing information]. Furthermore, the distance between the central axes of two adjacent second mounting holes 23 on the elongated structure is generally 44.45 mm.

[0042] The second mounting hole 23 on the first folded edge 21 is mainly used to install the elongated structure onto the upper cover plate 11 and the lower base plate 12. Correspondingly, the lower surface of the upper cover plate 11 and the upper surface of the lower base plate 12 are respectively provided with a third mounting hole at the connection between them and the first folded edge 21. The diameter of the second mounting hole 23 and the third mounting hole on the first folded edge 21 is generally [missing information]. The distance between the center axes of two adjacent third mounting holes is 25mm.

[0043] The second mounting holes 23 on the second folded edge 22 correspond one-to-one with the holes on the column, mainly used for the installation of the wire-binding beam 4, allowing the wire-binding beam 4 to be freely adjusted in the vertical direction, thereby simplifying the installation of the device and reducing design costs. Of course, during the installation of the testing device, it can also be connected to the second folded edge 22 through the second mounting holes 23 as needed. The diameter of the second mounting holes 23 on the second folded edge 22 is... At this time, the distance between the central axes of two adjacent second mounting holes 23 is 25mm.

[0044] Preferably, the upper cover plate 11, the lower base plate 12 and the four uprights 13 can be designed as an integrated structure, and casters 121 are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the lower base plate 12 to facilitate the rapid movement of the cabinet.

[0045] In addition, the first mounting beam 2 and the second mounting beam 3 in this embodiment are made of carbon steel, which is moderately priced and has good hardness at room temperature.

[0046] This invention not only meets the installation requirements of U-ary devices but also corresponds to the installation of PS cabinets, simplifying the installation of test devices. Furthermore, the series of holes in the design allow for interchangeable installation positions of test devices, facilitating design and manufacturing assembly. This effectively solves problems such as difficult device installation, poor connection stability, poor interchangeability of installation positions, and high design and manufacturing costs in traditional ATE cabinets. Actual verification shows that the addition of the first mounting beam 2 and the second mounting beam 3 enables the ATE cabinet to exhibit excellent installation interchangeability. In addition, the mounting beams and cable tie beams in this embodiment can be shared in various cabinets, significantly improving design efficiency and reducing design costs. Regarding parts processing, the shared use of parts allows for mass production of some components, significantly reducing processing costs.

[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the 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 or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
