[0002] Data cable testing is a crucial step in ensuring the quality and performance of data cables. It guarantees reliable data transmission, assesses charging performance, ensures compatibility, complies with industry standards, extends device lifespan, and improves user experience.
[0003] To ensure the effectiveness and accuracy of the test, real devices are generally used for testing. That is, when testing Apple data cables, Type-C data cables, and Micro data cables, a mobile phone or electronic device with the corresponding charging interface is required. The mobile phone or electronic device is repeatedly plugged and unplugged with the corresponding data cable. Because real device testing involves frequent plugging and unplugging of the data cable for charging tests, the phone's charging port is prone to damage, resulting in high repair costs and a short service life. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art by proposing a data cable testing device.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a data cable testing device, comprising a testing base, wherein a vertical spring rod is rotatably connected to the center of the bottom surface of the testing base, a horizontally placed turntable is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the vertical spring rod, a guide rail passing through the center of the turntable is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the turntable, a slide block and a sliding block are respectively inserted at both ends of the guide rail, an insert is inserted into the side of the slide block, and two parallel V-shaped bars are hinged to the side of the sliding block by a spring hinge, and several contact points are installed on the insert and the V-shaped bars, a slot is opened on the side of the testing base and a rotating ring is rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the testing base, and several different shaped card holders are fixedly installed at the top of the rotating ring.
[0006] Preferably, a motor for driving the vertical spring rod to rotate is fixedly installed at the center of the outer side of the test base, and an electric push rod for pushing the turntable down is fixedly installed at the center of the inner top surface of the test base, extending downward.
[0007] Preferably, the sliding block and the sliding seat are each fixedly mounted with a horizontally arranged horizontal spring rod on their opposite sides, and the two horizontal spring rods are coaxially distributed and their opposite ends are fixedly connected to the guide rail surface.
[0008] Preferably, an electric telescopic rod passing through the center of the turntable is fixedly installed on the inner top surface of the test seat. The electric telescopic rod is horizontally arranged and a push block located between the slide block and the sliding block is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod.
[0009] Preferably, a toothed groove is provided at the bottom edge of the inner sidewall of the rotating ring, and a spur gear that meshes with the toothed groove is provided inside the test seat.
[0010] Preferably, the inner sidewall of the rotating ring is clearance-fitted with the outer side of the turntable and is coaxially arranged.
[0011] Preferably, a push rod is embedded in the top edge of the sliding block, and the two ends of the push rod are respectively used to push the two V-shaped bars to swing, and a hydraulic rod is provided between the push rod and the sliding block.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. In this utility model, by setting a sliding block and a sliding base, the sliding base moves to the contact point at its end and enters the data cable. Then, the sliding base descends to make the contact point contact the contact piece on one side of the data cable; or the sliding block moves into the data cable and the two V-shaped strips on the sliding block swing relative to or towards each other to the contact points on both sides of the data cable to make contact with the contact pieces on both sides of the data cable. This allows the testing of the data cable. Furthermore, the data cable is not assembled by plugging and unplugging during testing. That is, the connection between the two is not by contact friction, but by relative movement and point-to-point contact, thus avoiding damage to the phone's charging port.
[0014] 2. In this utility model, the two ends of the push rod are respectively used to push the two V-shaped bars to swing, and a hydraulic rod is provided between the push rod and the sliding block. By extending the hydraulic rod, the push rod is forced to move towards the edge of the turntable, so that the side part of the push rod can push the V-shaped bars to overcome the elasticity of the spring hinge and swing.

Detailed Implementation
[0020] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0021] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.
[0022] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a data cable testing device includes a test base 1. A vertical spring rod 14 is rotatably connected to the center of the bottom surface of the test base 1. A horizontally placed turntable 4 is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the vertical spring rod 14. A motor 13 for driving the vertical spring rod 14 to rotate is fixedly installed at the center of the outside of the test base 1. An electric push rod 7 for pushing the turntable 4 down is fixedly installed at the center of the top surface of the test base 1. In actual use, according to the type of data cable and the differences between the two ends, the motor 13 drives the vertical spring rod 14 to rotate the turntable 4 so that the corresponding contact point 20 faces one end of the data cable. The electric push rod 7 extends and pushes the turntable 4 to overcome the thrust of the vertical spring rod 14 and descend, so that the contact point 20 descends to contact the contact piece inside one end of the data cable and is energized.
[0023] A guide rail 10 passing through the center of the turntable 4 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the turntable 4. A slide block 5 and a sliding block 12 are respectively inserted into the two ends of the guide rail 10. An insert 21 is inserted into the side of the slide block 5. Two parallel V-shaped bars 17 are hinged to the side of the sliding block 12 via spring hinges. Several contacts 20 are installed on both the insert 21 and the V-shaped bars 17. The contacts 20 on the insert 21 are used to contact single-sided contact pieces, such as the USB end of a data cable or an Android flat-head data cable. In such data cables, the contact pieces inside the end are distributed on one side. In actual use, the slide block 5 moves until the contacts 20 on its side extend into the data cable, and the turntable 4 descends to allow the contacts 20 inside the data cable to contact the contact pieces inside the end of the data cable. The contacts 20 on the sliding block 12 are used to contact double-sided contact pieces, such as i Phone charging cables, Type-C flat connectors, etc., have contact pieces distributed on both sides inside. In actual use, the two V-shaped bars 17 swing relative to each other against the elasticity of the spring hinge. As the sliding block 12 slides, they extend into one end of the data cable. Then, the two V-shaped bars 17 continue to swing relative to each other or move away from each other under the pushing action of the spring hinge to make contact with the contact pieces on both sides of the data cable end. A push rod 18 is embedded in the top edge of the sliding block 12. The two ends of the push rod 18 are used to push the two V-shaped bars 17 to swing. A hydraulic rod 19 is provided between the push rod 18 and the sliding block 12. The extension of the hydraulic rod 19 forces the push rod 18 to move towards the edge of the turntable 4. The side part of the push rod 18 can be used to push the V-shaped bars 17 to swing against the elasticity of the spring hinge.
[0024] In actual operation, this solution can also install an electronic device on the test socket 1. When the charging port of the electronic device is connected to the contact 20, the electronic device can be used to observe whether the contact 20 is working properly when it contacts the contact piece inside the data line.
[0025] The test socket 1 has a slot 6 on its side and a rotating ring 2 is rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the test socket 1. Several card holders 3 of different shapes are fixedly installed on the top of the rotating ring 2. Different card holders 3 make it convenient for personnel to put in the two ends of data cables of different shapes, such as the USB end of the data cable and the power transmission end of the data cable. In actual use, the rotating ring 2 is rotated to move the corresponding card holder 3 to the slot 6, so that personnel can put one end of the data cable into the card holder 3 through the slot 6.
[0026] A horizontally arranged horizontal spring rod 11 is fixedly installed on the opposite sides of the slide block 5 and the sliding block 12. The two horizontal spring rods 11 are coaxially distributed and their opposite ends are fixedly connected to the surface of the guide rail 10. An electric telescopic rod 8 passing through the center of the turntable 4 is fixedly installed on the inner top surface of the test seat 1. The electric telescopic rod 8 is horizontally arranged and a push block 9 located between the slide block 5 and the sliding block 12 is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 8. When the turntable 4 rotates and drives the slide block 5 and the sliding block 12 to revolve, the position of the corresponding push block 9 will not change. After the slide block 5 or the sliding block 12 rotates to face the slot 6, the electric telescopic rod 8 extends to force the push block 9 to move towards the slot 6. This allows the slide block 5 or the sliding block 12 to overcome the tension of the horizontal spring rod 11 connected to it and move towards the slot 6. This allows the contact point 20 on the slide block 5 or the sliding block 12 to enter one end of the data cable.
[0027] In addition, this solution can be adapted to data lines with different numbers of contact pieces by adjusting the number of contacts 20 on the insert 21 or V-shaped strip 17; or the insert 21 or V-shaped strip 17 with the corresponding number of contacts 20 can be directly replaced.
[0028] A toothed groove 16 is provided at the bottom edge of the inner sidewall of the rotating ring 2. A spur gear 15 is provided inside the test seat 1 and meshes with the toothed groove 16. The inner sidewall of the rotating ring 2 is clearance-fitted with the outer side of the turntable 4 and is coaxially arranged. Figure 3 As shown, another motor 13 can be installed in the test seat 1 to drive the spur gear 15 to rotate. The tooth surface of the tooth groove 16 that meshes with the spur gear 15 is an annular straight tooth surface. Therefore, the rotating ring 2 will rotate with the rotation of the spur gear 15, so that different card holders 3 can be moved to the slot 6.
[0029] Operating steps: Select two test sockets 1. Depending on the type of data cable being tested (Apple, Android, or Micro USB), when the rotating rings 2 inside the two test sockets 1 rotate, the corresponding card holders 3 at the ends of the data cables move to the slots 6. Depending on whether the contact pieces inside the ends of the data cables are single-sided or double-sided, the turntable 4 rotates until the slide block 5 or sliding block 12 on its surface faces the slot 6. After placing both ends of the data cable through the slots 6 on the surfaces of the two test sockets 1 into the corresponding card holders 3, the electric telescopic rod 8 extends, forcing the push block 9 to move towards the slot 6. This allows the slide block 5 or sliding block 12 to overcome the horizontal spring rod 11 connected to it. The contact 20 on the slide block 5 or the sliding block 12 moves towards the slot 6 under the pulling force, so that the contact 20 on the slide block 5 or the sliding block 12 can enter the corresponding end of the data cable. When the contact 20 on the slide block 5 enters the data cable, the electric push rod 7 extends and pushes the turntable 4 to overcome the thrust of the vertical spring rod 14 and descend, so that the contact 20 descends to contact the contact piece inside the data cable and conduct electricity. When the contact 20 on the sliding block 12 extends into the data cable, the hydraulic rod 19 extends and forces the push rod 18 to move towards the edge of the turntable 4. The side part of the push rod 18 pushes the V-shaped strip 17 to overcome the elasticity of the spring hinge and swing to make contact with the contact pieces on both sides inside the end of the data cable.
[0030] The wiring diagrams of the electric push rod 7, electric telescopic rod 8, motor 13, and hydraulic rod 19 in this utility model are common knowledge in the field, and their working principles are known technologies. The appropriate model is selected according to actual use. Therefore, the control methods and wiring layouts of the electric push rod 7, electric telescopic rod 8, motor 13, and hydraulic rod 19 will not be explained in detail.

Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
