[0022] Example 1 Reference Figure 1-4 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, providing a testing fixture for a PCB printed circuit board, including a testing fixture 1. The testing fixture 1 includes a testing body 11, a support 12, a cylinder 13, a ejector plate 14, and a jig 15. The support 12 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the top of the testing body 11, the cylinder 13 is fixedly installed on the front side of the support 12, the ejector plate 14 is disposed at the bottom of the cylinder 13, and the jig 15 is movably connected to the top of the testing body 11. Replacement mechanism 2; Replacement mechanism 2 includes a connecting frame 21, which is fixedly connected to the output end of cylinder 13. A connecting seat 22 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting frame 21. A replacement seat 23 is movably connected to the inner wall of the connecting seat 22. The bottom of the replacement seat 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the ejector plate 14. Locking components 24 are provided on both sides of the top of the connecting seat 22. Limit components 25 are fixedly connected to both sides of the replacement seat 23. Pull the locking mechanism 3; the locking mechanism 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting seat 22. The locking component 24 moves the groove 241. The groove 241 is opened on both sides of the top of the connecting seat 22. The inner wall of the groove 241 is movably connected to the locking plate 242. The changing seat 23 has locking slots 243 on both sides. The inner side of the locking plate 242 is movably connected to the inner wall of the locking slot 243. The front and rear sides of the locking plate 242 are movably inlaid with auxiliary components 244. The auxiliary components 244 include... The device includes a ball bearing 2441, which is movably embedded in the front and rear sides of the locking plate 242. The inner wall of the moving groove 241 has auxiliary grooves 2442 on both the front and rear sides. The surface of the ball bearing 2441 is movably connected to the inner wall of the auxiliary groove 2442. The limiting component 25 includes a limiting block 251, which is fixedly installed on both sides of the changing seat 23. The bottom of the connecting seat 22 has limiting grooves 252 on both sides. The top of the limiting block 251 is movably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 252.
[0023] Specifically, the detachable connection structure between the connector 22 and the replacement connector 23 enables the rapid separation and installation of the ejector plate 14 and the output end of the cylinder 13. When different models of PCB printed circuit boards need to be tested, there is no need to adjust the entire test fixture 1. Only the matching ejector plate 14 needs to be replaced to meet the testing requirements of different circuit boards, which greatly improves the compatibility of the same test fixture 1 with multiple models of PCB printed circuit boards.
[0024] Furthermore, when it is necessary to replace the ejector plate 14, first start the forward and reverse motor 31 to rotate it in the forward direction, driving the take-up wheel 32 to rotate synchronously. Then, loosen the pull rope 33 and cause the tension spring 341 to pull the locking plate 242 outward until it is completely disengaged from the locking slots 243 on both sides of the replacement seat 23, thus releasing the locking state. Then, remove the old ejector plate 14 along with the replacement seat 23. During installation, move the ejector plate 14 adapted to the new PCB printed circuit board, along with the replacement seat 23, below the connecting seat 22, so that the limiting blocks 251 on both sides of the replacement seat 23 align with the limiting grooves 252 at the bottom of the connecting seat 22, allowing the limiting blocks 251 to slide along the inner wall of the limiting grooves 252. The device moves and embeds itself, ensuring that the replacement seat 23 and the connecting seat 22 are precisely aligned. At this time, the locking slot 243 and the locking plate 242 are automatically aligned. Then, the forward and reverse motors 31 rotate in opposite directions to tighten the pull rope 33, so that the locking plate 242 overcomes the force of the tension spring 341 and is inserted into the locking slot 243. During the unlocking process, the ball 2441 rolls in the auxiliary groove 2442, converting sliding friction into rolling friction, making the movement of the locking socket smoother and avoiding the locking plate 242 from getting stuck. This achieves quick replacement, precise positioning and stable connection of the ejector plate 14, improving the compatibility and testing efficiency of different models of PCB printed circuit boards.
[0025] Example 2 In the second embodiment of this utility model, the pull locking mechanism 3 includes a forward and reverse motor 31, which is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting seat 22. The output end of the forward and reverse motor 31 is fixedly connected to a winding wheel 32. Pull ropes 33 are provided on both sides of the winding wheel 32. One end of the pull rope 33 is fixedly connected to both sides of the surface of the winding wheel 32, and the other end of the pull rope 33 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the locking plate 242. A tension assembly 34 is provided on the outer side of the locking plate 242. The tension assembly 34 includes a tension spring 341, which is provided on the outer side of the locking plate 242. Grooves 342 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the connecting frame 21. One end of the tension spring 341 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove 342, and the other end of the tension spring 341 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the locking plate 242. A guide rod 4 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove 342. The tension spring 341 is sleeved on the surface of the guide rod 4, and the inner side of the guide rod 4 extends through to the inner side of the locking plate 242.
[0026] Specifically, by controlling the take-up wheel 32 to pull the pull rope 33 through the forward and reverse motor 31, the insertion and removal of the locking plate 242 can be quickly realized, which significantly shortens the replacement time of the ejector plate 14 and improves the detection efficiency. Furthermore, the locking plate 242 is pulled outward by the force of the tension spring 341, thereby improving the replacement efficiency of the ejector plate 14.
[0027] Furthermore, when the ejector plate 14 needs to be replaced, the forward and reverse motor 31 rotates in the forward direction, driving the take-up wheel 32 to rotate synchronously. The take-up wheel 32 loosens the pull rope 33, causing the telescopic spring to pull the locking plate 242 to move outward along the guide rod 4. At this time, the telescopic spring 341 is compressed and stores elastic potential energy. After the locking plate 242 completely disengages from the locking slot 243 of the replacement seat 23, the locking state is released, and the old ejector plate 14 can be removed. When installing the new ejector plate 14, align the replacement seat 23 with the connecting seat 22, and the forward and reverse motor 31 rotates in the reverse direction. Rotate the tension rope 33 to pull the locking insert 242 inward along the guide rod 4 and insert it into the locking slot 243. During this process, the guide rod 4 passes through the locking insert 242 and is fixed to the inner wall of the groove 342, guiding the locking insert 242 to move linearly along the axial direction, preventing it from tilting or getting stuck. At the same time, it provides rigid support for the locking insert 242, enhances structural stability, and also prevents the tension spring 341 from twisting or bending during the extension and retraction process, protecting the tension spring 341 and extending its service life.
[0028] Working principle: When testing different models of PCB printed circuit boards and replacing the appropriate ejector plate 14 is required, first start the forward and reverse motor 31 to rotate forward. The output end of the forward and reverse motor 31 drives the take-up wheel 32 to rotate synchronously. During the rotation of the take-up wheel 32, the pull ropes 33 on both sides are released. At this time, the tension spring 341 on the outside of the locking plate 242 is no longer constrained by the tension of the pull rope 33. It pulls the locking plate 242 outward by its own elastic restoring force. When the locking plate 242 moves, the balls 2441 embedded on its front and rear sides roll in the auxiliary groove 2442 on the inner wall of the moving groove 241, converting sliding friction into rolling friction, making the movement of the locking plate 242 smoother, until the locking plate 242 is completely disengaged from the locking slots 243 on both sides of the replacement seat 23, releasing the lock on the replacement seat 23. After the lock is released, the old ejector plate 14 and the replacement seat 23 can be removed from the inner wall of the connecting seat 22. Then, install the new appropriate ejector plate 14. When fitting the ejector plate 14, align the replacement seat 23 on the top of the new ejector plate 14 with the inner wall of the connecting seat 22, and align the limiting blocks 251 on both sides of the replacement seat 23 with the limiting grooves 252 at the bottom of the connecting seat 22. Then push the replacement seat 23 upward, and the limiting blocks 251 slide along the inner wall of the limiting grooves 252 and embed into them, achieving precise positioning of the replacement seat 23 and the connecting seat 22. At this time, the locking slots 243 on both sides of the replacement seat 23 correspond to the locking inserts 242 on the connecting seat 22. Then control the forward and reverse motors 31 to rotate in opposite directions. The forward and reverse motors 31 drive the winding wheel 32 to rotate in opposite directions. The winding wheel 32 tightens the pull ropes 33 on both sides. The pull ropes 33 pull the locking inserts 242 to move inward against the elastic force of the tension spring 341. Under the guidance of the guide rod 4, the locking inserts 242 are stably inserted into the locking slots 243 on both sides of the replacement seat 23, completing the locking of the replacement seat 23, and thus achieving the fixed installation of the new ejector plate 14.
[0029] In summary: By setting up the replacement mechanism 2 and the pull-locking mechanism 3, the replacement mechanism 2 enables the quick installation and removal of the ejector plate 14, allowing for convenient replacement of the appropriate ejector plate 14 when dealing with different types of circuit boards. At the same time, the pull-locking mechanism 3 can effectively control the locking state of the replacement mechanism 2. Due to the lack of a replacement structure, when different types of circuit boards need to be tested, the position and number of ejector pins on the ejector plate cannot be adapted to the new circuit board, making it difficult for the same test fixture to be compatible with the testing of multiple types of circuit boards, thus reducing the adaptability of the test fixture.
