[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides an RF connector testing device, including a base box 1. A pushing mechanism 2 for pushing detection is disposed inside the base box 1, and a reset mechanism 3 for pressure detection is disposed on the top of the base box 1. The pushing mechanism 2 includes a pushing component disposed inside the base box 1 and a moving component connected to the pushing component. A sliding component is disposed on the outer side of the moving component. The reset mechanism 3 includes a support component disposed on the top of the base box 1 and a fixing component connected to the support component. An elastic component is disposed on the top of the support component.

[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, the pushing assembly includes an electric push rod 21 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the base box 1. The output end of the electric push rod 21 is fixedly installed with a connecting seat 22 and a support rod 23 that is slidably adapted to the connecting seat 22. The support rod 23 is fixed to the inner wall of the base box 1.

[0026] The electric push rod 21 can be used for power pushing during the length dimension detection process. The connecting seat 22 is slidably connected to the outside of the support rod 23, and the support rod 23 can provide sliding support for the connecting seat 22 to ensure its stability when it is pushed and displaced.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, the moving component includes a moving rod 24 fixedly installed on the top of the connector 22. A push plate 25 is fixedly installed on one end of the moving rod 24. The moving rod 24 can transmit pushing force. The top of the base box 1 has a through hole. The through hole can be used to accommodate the moving rod 24 to limit its movement while ensuring that its movement is not obstructed. The push plate 25 can directly contact the RF connector, thereby pushing it to a specified position for length detection.

[0028] in:

[0029] like Figure 2 and 3As shown, the sliding assembly includes a pointer 26 fixedly installed on the outside of the push plate 25 and a crossbar 27 that slides through the pointer 26. Both ends of the crossbar 27 are fixedly installed with fixing blocks 28. The pointer 26 corresponds to the scale 32 on the outside to know whether the RF connector is within the qualified size and length. The crossbar 27 facilitates the sliding of the pointer 26 on its outside and supports it, while the fixing blocks 28 can support and fix the crossbar 27.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, the support assembly includes a support 31 fixedly installed on the top of the base box 1. The top of the support 31 has an arc-shaped groove 33. A scale 32 is fixedly installed on the top of the base box 1. The support 31 and the arc-shaped groove 33 on the top can be used to support and place the RF connector, and can be adapted to it. There is no need to pre-install the RF connector on the fixing part; it can be placed directly. The scale 32, together with the pointer 26 mentioned above, can tell the length of the measured RF connector.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the fixing assembly includes a fixing plate 34 fixedly installed inside the arc-shaped groove 33. A connecting rod 37 is slidably connected through one side of the fixing plate 34. The fixing plate 34 is used to support the connecting rod 37 and the spring 35. The connecting rod 37 and the fixing plate 34 are slidably connected through each other to ensure the stability of its lateral movement.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, the elastic component includes a slide plate 36 fixedly installed at one end of the connecting rod 37 and a spring 35 welded to one side of the slide plate 36. One end of the spring 35 is welded to the fixing plate 34. The spring 35 facilitates subsequent reset after elastic compression. Then the slide plate 36 can be used to contact the RF connector. After being subjected to force, it slides to complete the pressure detection length operation and facilitates subsequent direct reset.

[0033] During testing, the touch radio frequency connector is placed directly in the arc groove 33, between the slide plate 36 and the push plate 25. This method is not only easy to place, but also allows for easy removal by simply lifting it upwards, improving the efficiency of material handling. After that, the testing can proceed.

[0034] First, the electric push rod 21 is activated to push the connector 22 to slide horizontally on the outside of the support rod 23. During the sliding of the support rod 23, the moving rod 24 will be driven to push the push plate 25, and the push plate 25 will drive the pointer 26 to move together. At this time, the support rod 23 will slide inside the through hole, while the pointer 26 will slide on the outside of the crossbar 27 until the push plate 25 contacts the RF connector. Continue to push until the other end of the RF connector contacts the slide plate 36. Continue to apply the pushing force until the RF connector between the two is pushed to slide horizontally.

[0035] When it is pushed to slide, the spring 35 is compressed by the sliding plate 36 according to the pushing force, which drives the connecting rod 37 to slide until the pointer 26 slides and aligns with the scale on the designated scale 32, and the other end of the RF connector is aligned with the preset scale horizontal surface. The scale at this position is the end position. Each time the test is performed, the RF connector needs to be aligned with the preset scale at one end of the sliding plate 36. The length test is completed by judging whether the front end, i.e., the pointer 26, is aligned with the designated scale. If it does not move to the designated scale, the length of the RF connector is too long. If it exceeds the preset scale, the length is too short. After the test is completed, the pushing force is slowly retracted and each component returns to its initial position.

[0036] Based on the above, since the stroke of the electric push rod 21 is fixed after adjustment, the end position will always correspond to the scale line that is aligned with it.

[0037] After the test is completed, simply lift the tested RF connector upwards and place a new RF connector on top. Repeat the test using the above method.

[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
