Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical keyboard manufacturing technology, and in particular to a mechanical keyboard chip testing mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] The mechanical keyboard chip is a core component of the keyboard, and its manufacturing quality directly affects the keyboard's tactile feedback, response speed, and lifespan. Currently, the testing of mechanical keyboard chips mainly relies on manual visual inspection or traditional optical testing equipment. Manual inspection methods suffer from low efficiency, high labor intensity, and inconsistent testing standards, easily leading to missed or false positives. Existing automated testing equipment mostly only detects external defects in the chip, making it difficult to effectively test critical functional parameters such as keycap contact conductivity and solder joint defects.
[0003] Furthermore, the structural design of existing testing equipment is usually relatively fixed, making it difficult to adapt to the rapid replacement requirements of chips with different specifications, resulting in insufficient testing flexibility. At the same time, the sensor layout and data processing algorithms of traditional testing devices have not been optimized, making them susceptible to environmental interference and affecting the accuracy of testing results. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a mechanical keyboard chip testing mechanism, which aims to improve testing efficiency and make the testing mechanism universal.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a mechanical keyboard chip testing mechanism, including a testing platform, a testing track and a testing mechanism on the testing platform, the testing track passing through the testing mechanism, a testing seat on the testing track, a plurality of testing positions arranged on the testing seat facing the array of testing mechanisms, a pressing mechanism connected to one side of the testing seat, a plurality of pressing parts protruding from the pressing mechanism relative to the array of testing positions, a clearance part being provided for each testing position relative to the pressing parts, and the pressing parts being connected to the testing positions.
[0006] The detection mechanism is connected to an NG mechanism on one side.
[0007] In one embodiment of this application, the clamping mechanism is connected to a driving unit, which is connected to the side of the detection seat away from the clamping mechanism. The driving unit passes through the detection seat and has a driving rod facing the clamping mechanism.

[0009] A drive mechanism is provided on the other side of the detection track, and the detection seat is driven to the drive mechanism.
[0010] In one embodiment of this application, the detection seat is provided with a drive seat relative to the drive mechanism, and the drive seat is slidably connected to the detection track;
[0011] The drive seat is provided with a lifting structure at one end away from the detection position, and the lifting structure passes through the clearance groove.
[0012] In one embodiment of this application, the detection mechanism is provided with a clamping structure relative to each detection position, each clamping structure is connected to a solenoid valve, and the NG mechanism is connected to the clamping structure.
[0013] In one embodiment of this application, the NG mechanism includes a retrieval track and a receiving track, wherein the retrieval track is connected to the detection table and is inclined along the direction away from the clearance groove;
[0014] A movable structure connects the receiving track and the detection mechanism. The receiving track has a receiving part relative to multiple clamping structures. The receiving track has a recovery part relative to the receiving part. The width of the recovery part gradually decreases along the direction away from the receiving part.

[0025] The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of this utility model will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation
[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0027] Reference Figures 1 to 3 To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a mechanical keyboard chip testing mechanism 4, which includes a testing platform 1, a testing track 12 and a testing mechanism 4 on the testing platform 1, the testing track 12 passing through the testing mechanism 4, a testing seat 2 on the testing track 12, a plurality of testing positions 21 arrayed facing the testing mechanism 4, a pressing mechanism 3 connected to one side of the testing seat 2, a plurality of pressing parts 31 protruding from the pressing parts 21 array relative to the testing positions 21, a clearance part being provided for the testing positions 21 relative to the pressing parts 31, and the pressing parts 31 being connected to the testing positions 21;
[0028] The NG mechanism 5 is connected to one side of the testing mechanism 4.
[0029] From a structural and functional perspective, the chip testing mechanism 4 can be divided into a testing platform 1 for installing and stabilizing the entire mechanism and improving the overall strength; a testing mechanism 4 for efficiently testing the chips to be tested; a testing seat 2 for loading multiple chips so that they can be quickly and stably tested at the testing mechanism 4; and a testing track 12 that passes through the inside of the testing mechanism 4 to transport the testing seat 2 into the testing mechanism 4. The testing seat 2 can be equipped with multiple testing positions 21 to simultaneously receive and assist in chip testing. The testing seat 2 or the testing mechanism 4 can be configured with a lifting function so that after the testing seat 2 is in place, the testing positions 21 can be connected to the testing mechanism 4, which can effectively improve the testing efficiency.
[0030] The detection base 2 is connected to the clamping mechanism 3. The detection position 21 is provided with a clearance part relative to the clamping mechanism 3. The clamping mechanism 3 is provided with a clamping part 31 relative to the clearance part. After chips of different specifications enter the detection position 21, the clamping mechanism 3 will be activated and the chips will be gradually clamped by the clamping part 31. This allows the chip detection mechanism 4 to be used to detect chips of various models, which can effectively improve the user experience.
[0031] The testing station 1 is equipped with an NG mechanism 5 relative to the testing mechanism 4. When the testing mechanism 4 detects a problem with the chip, the NG mechanism 5 can quickly remove the problematic chip, which can effectively improve the quality of the product. Through the above structure, the testing efficiency can be effectively improved and the quality of the product removed after testing can be guaranteed.
[0032] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment of this application, the clamping mechanism 3 is connected to a driving part 32, which is connected to the side of the detection seat 2 away from the clamping mechanism 3. The driving part 32 passes through the detection seat 2 and has a driving rod facing the clamping mechanism 3.
[0033] The driving part 32 of the clamping structure is connected to the side of the detection seat 2 away from the clamping mechanism 3, so that one end of the detection seat 2 is connected to the clamping mechanism 3 and the other end is connected to the driving part 32. This can stabilize the entire clamping mechanism 3 structure, ensure the clamping effect, and prevent the chip from being damaged during the clamping process.
[0034] See also Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of this application, the detection platform 1 is provided with a clearance groove 11 relative to the detection track 12. The clearance groove 11 is connected to one side of the detection track 12. The other side of the detection platform 1 relative to the clearance groove 11 is provided with a balance track 13. One end of the detection seat 2 is connected to the balance track 13 and the other end is connected to the detection track 12.
[0035] A drive mechanism is provided on the other side of the detection track 12, and the detection seat 2 is driven to the drive mechanism.
[0036] The testing table 1 has a clearance groove 11. On both sides of the clearance groove 11, there are testing tracks 12 and balance tracks 13 respectively. On the side of the testing track 12 away from the clearance groove 11, there is a drive mechanism opposite to the testing seat 2. The design of the testing track 12 and the balance track 13 can make the movement of the testing seat 2 more stable. The design of the clearance groove 11 can better plan the layout of the testing table 1 and improve the overall strength of the testing table 1, which can effectively improve the service life of the testing mechanism 4.
[0037] See also Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of this application, the detection seat 2 is provided with a drive seat 22 relative to the drive mechanism, and the drive seat 22 is slidably connected to the detection track 12;
[0038] The drive seat 22 is provided with a lifting structure 23 at one end away from the detection position 21, and the lifting structure 23 passes through the clearance groove 11.
[0039] The bottom of the detection seat 2 is connected to the drive seat 22, which can more conveniently connect to the drive mechanism. At the same time, a lifting structure 23 can be set at the bottom of the drive seat 22 relative to the detection position 21. The clearance groove 11 can be used to place the lifting structure 23, which can effectively lower the center of gravity of the detection seat 2 and ensure the stability of the detection process.
[0040] See also Figures 1 to 2 In one embodiment of this application, the detection mechanism 4 is provided with a clamping structure 41 relative to each detection position 21, and each clamping structure 41 is connected to a solenoid valve. The NG mechanism 5 is connected to the clamping structure 41.
[0041] In addition to a detection structure for each detection position 21, the detection mechanism 4 can also have a clamping structure 41 for each detection position 21. The clamping structure 41 can be a pneumatic gripper or a mechanical gripper. A solenoid valve can control each clamping structure 41 independently. After the chip is detected on the detection mechanism 4, the unqualified chip detected by the electrical test will be fed back to the clamping structure 41. The corresponding clamping structure 41 can clamp the chip that needs to be rejected. When the detection seat 2 returns with qualified chips, the rejection mechanism 5 will connect to the clamping structure 41 to quickly recover the rejection chip. Through the above structure, the entire detection process can be highly integrated, which can effectively improve the detection efficiency. Moreover, the rejection of the chip will not disturb the chip testing process, which can ensure the efficiency of the entire detection.
[0042] See also Figures 2 to 3 In one embodiment of this application, the NG mechanism 5 includes a retrieval track 51 and a receiving track 52. The retrieval track 51 is connected to the detection table 1 and is inclined along the direction away from the relief groove 11.
[0043] A movable structure 6 is connected between the receiving track 52 and the detection mechanism 4. The receiving track 52 is provided with a receiving part 53 relative to multiple clamping structures 41. The receiving track 52 is provided with a recovery part 54 relative to the receiving part 53. The width of the recovery part 54 gradually decreases along the direction away from the receiving part 53. The end of the recovery part 54 away from the receiving part 53 is provided with an anti-splash structure relative to the recovery track 51.
[0044] The NG mechanism 5 includes a retrieval track 51 connecting to the NG bin and a receiving track 52 for connecting to the clamping structure 41 and receiving chips that need to be NG. The NG bin is connected to one side of the detection station 1. The receiving track 52 needs to connect to multiple clamping structures 41 at the same time to ensure that chips that need to be NG can be stably received no matter where they are located. The receiving track 52 has a wide receiving section 53 and a retrieval section 54 that gradually narrows from the receiving section 53 to the retrieval track 51. The above structure can stably receive chips. A moving structure 6 is provided between the receiving track and the detection mechanism 4. In this application, the moving mechanism is an electric telescopic rod. Depending on the function, the moving mechanism can be a cylinder with a push rod, a motor with a lead screw, or many other feasible structures. It is used to drive the connecting track to connect to the retrieval track 51 when the detection seat 2 leaves the detection mechanism 4, so as to facilitate the retrieval of chips.
[0045] The anti-splash structure is sealed at the end of the recycling section 54 and connected to the recycling track 51. It can be used to prevent the chip from rushing out of the NG mechanism 5, which can ensure recycling efficiency and improve the user experience.
