Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of memory processing technology, specifically a modular memory tester. Background Technology

[0002] Against the backdrop of the booming development of the modern electronic information industry, the production scale of storage devices (such as solid-state drives, USB flash drives and various storage modules) continues to expand, which puts forward higher requirements for the testing efficiency and reliability of the quality inspection process. With the widespread application of multi-interface storage devices such as NVMe, SAS, and SATA, the limitations of traditional testing equipment at the technical level are becoming increasingly prominent, especially in terms of automatic plug-in / plug-out function and multi-station rotating testing technology. Currently, most storage device testing still relies on manual operation or semi-automated equipment, lacking automatic insertion and removal capabilities. Manually placing the storage devices to be tested one by one into the testing slot, and then manually removing them after testing, is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive in batch testing, but also particularly in enterprise-level storage device hot-swapping testing. Repeated manual insertion and removal not only consumes a significant amount of time but also easily leads to operator fatigue, extending the testing cycle and failing to meet the cycle time requirements of large-scale production. Furthermore, the force and angle used during manual insertion and removal are difficult to control precisely, potentially damaging the storage device interface, affecting product yield, and increasing production costs. Secondly, due to the lack of automatic plug-in / plug-out functionality and multi-station rotating testing technology, existing testing equipment is unable to build an efficient and continuous automated testing process, and cannot meet the needs of rapid iteration and large-scale production of modern storage devices. Therefore, developing a modular storage testing device with automatic plug-in / plug-out functionality and multi-station rotating testing technology has become the key to improving the efficiency and reliability of storage device production quality inspection. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a modular storage tester to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as low efficiency due to the lack of automatic plug-in / plug-out function in the storage device testing process, easy damage to the equipment due to manual operation, and discontinuous testing process due to the lack of multi-station rotation testing technology, which cannot meet the needs of large-scale production.

[0004] According to a first aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a modular storage tester, including a base, a switching motor is fixedly installed inside the lower end of the base, and the upper end of the output shaft of the switching motor passes through the upper surface of the base, and a switching disk is fixedly connected to the upper end of the output shaft of the switching motor. The upper surface of the switching disk is provided with an installation groove, and a slide is fixedly provided on the upper surface of the switching disk on both sides of the installation groove. A sliding pressure plate is installed on the upper end of the slide, and a clamping rod is installed on the upper end of the slide. A mounting plate is fixedly installed on the upper outer surface of the base, and a drive motor is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the mounting plate. The upper end of the output shaft of the drive motor passes through the upper surface of the mounting plate, and a drive gear is fixedly connected to the upper end of the output shaft of the drive motor. Sliding drive racks are installed on the mounting plates on both sides of the drive gear, and a mounting rod is fixedly installed at the upper end of the drive rack. A detection port is fixedly installed at the upper end of the mounting rod. A push switch and a warning light are fixedly installed on the upper surfaces of both ends of the mounting plate.

[0005] In one embodiment of this utility model, the pressure plate is rotatably connected to the lower end of the pressure rod, and the pressure rod is threadedly connected to the slide.

[0006] In one embodiment of this utility model, the drive rack has teeth blocks evenly arranged on the side facing the drive gear, and two drive racks are respectively arranged on both sides of the drive gear, and both drive racks are meshed with the drive gear.

[0007] In one embodiment of this utility model, the mounting rod is L-shaped, and the lower surface of the mounting rod is higher than the upper surface of the switching disk.

[0008] In one embodiment of this utility model, the push switch and the mounting rod are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, and the push switch is located at the end of the mounting rod facing the outside of the mounting plate, and one end of the mounting rod is in contact with the push switch.

[0009] In one embodiment of this utility model, the push switch and the warning light are configured in a one-to-one correspondence, and the push switch and the warning light are electrically connected by a wire.

[0010] The technical solutions provided in this application embodiment may include the following beneficial effects: 1. By switching the motor to drive the switching disk to rotate, and with the multiple mounting slots on the switching disk, multiple storage devices to be tested can be carried at the same time, realizing parallel operation of the loading and unloading station and the testing station; 2. By using a drive motor to drive the drive gear to rotate, and through the meshing transmission between the drive gear and the drive racks on both sides, the precise insertion and removal of the detection port on the mounting rod is achieved. This mechanical linkage structure replaces manual insertion and removal operations, avoiding damage to the storage device interface caused by improper control of force and angle, and reducing product defect rate and production costs. 3. Through the threaded connection structure between the clamping rod at the upper end of the slide and the pressure plate, rotating the clamping rod can drive the pressure plate to slide along the slide and press the device to be tested. This design can ensure that the storage device maintains stable contact during the test, reduce test interruptions caused by vibration or displacement, improve the accuracy of test data, and solve the problem of poor contact that is easy to occur when placing manually. 4. The push-button switches on the mounting plate correspond one-to-one with the mounting rods. When the test port completes the docking or disengagement action, the mounting rod triggers the push-button switch, which controls the warning light to display the workstation status in real time through the wire connection. This instant feedback mechanism reduces the need for manual monitoring, makes it easier for operators to quickly identify the test progress and abnormal situations, and reduces the risk of misoperation.

[0017] The following detailed description of some embodiments of this application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0018] Please see Figures 1-6 According to the first aspect of this application, this application provides a modular storage tester, including a base 1. A switching motor 2 is fixedly installed inside the lower end of the base 1, and the upper end of the output shaft of the switching motor 2 passes through the upper surface of the base 1. A switching disk 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the output shaft of the switching motor 2. An installation groove 4 is opened on the upper surface of the switching disk 3, and a slide 5 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the switching disk 3 on both sides of the installation groove 4. A sliding pressure plate 6 is installed on the upper end of the slide 5, and a clamping rod 7 is installed on the upper end of the slide 5. The switching motor 2 drives the switching disk 3 to rotate, so that the installation groove 4 opened on the switching disk 3 can carry multiple storage devices to be tested, realizing parallel operation of loading, unloading and testing. The pressure plate 6 and clamping rod 7 installed on the upper end of the slide 5 can drive the pressure plate 6 to slide along the slide 5 by rotating the clamping rod 7, thereby clamping the storage device and ensuring stable contact during testing.

[0019] In an optional embodiment, the lower end of the pressure plate 6 is rotatably connected to the pressure rod 7, and the pressure rod 7 is threadedly connected to the slide 5. The rotatable connection between the pressure plate 6 and the lower end of the pressure rod 7 allows the pressure plate 6 to be flexibly adjusted to adapt to different storage devices. The pressure rod 7 is threadedly connected to the slide 5. When the pressure rod 7 is rotated, it moves up and down along the slide 5, causing the pressure plate 6 to press or release the storage device, ensuring the stability of the device. In one optional embodiment, a mounting plate 8 is fixedly disposed on the upper outer surface of the base 1, and a drive motor 9 is fixedly disposed on the lower surface of the mounting plate 8. The upper end of the output shaft of the drive motor 9 passes through the upper surface of the mounting plate 8, and a drive gear 10 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the output shaft of the drive motor 9. Sliding drive racks 11 are mounted on the mounting plates 8 on both sides of the drive gear 10, and a mounting rod 12 is fixedly disposed on the upper end of the drive rack 11. A detection socket 13 is fixedly disposed on the upper end of the mounting rod 12. A push switch 14 and a warning light 15 are fixedly disposed on the upper surfaces of both ends of the mounting plate 8.

[0020] In an optional embodiment, the drive rack 11 has evenly distributed tooth blocks on the side facing the drive gear 10, and the two drive racks 11 are respectively disposed on both sides of the drive gear 10, and both drive racks 11 are meshed with the drive gear 10. The tooth blocks on the side of the drive rack 11 facing the drive gear 10 mesh with the drive gear 10. When the drive gear 10 rotates, the two drive racks 11 will slide in opposite directions, thereby driving the mounting rod 12 and the detection socket 13 to move forward and backward synchronously. This mechanical linkage replaces manual insertion and removal, avoiding damage to the interface.

[0021] In one optional embodiment, the mounting rod 12 is L-shaped, and the lower surface of the mounting rod 12 is higher than the upper surface of the switching disk 3. The L-shaped design of the mounting rod 12, with its lower surface higher than the upper surface of the switching disk 3, can ensure that the detection port 13 is at a suitable height to connect with the storage device, and can also avoid interference between the mounting rod 12 and the switching disk 3, thus ensuring smooth detection operation.

[0022] In an optional embodiment, the push switch 14 and the mounting rod 12 are configured in a one-to-one correspondence, and the push switch 14 is located at the end of the mounting rod 12 facing the outside of the mounting plate 8, and one end of the mounting rod 12 is in contact with the push switch 14. The push switch 14 and the mounting rod 12 are in a one-to-one correspondence and in contact. When the mounting rod 12 moves with the drive gear 11, it will trigger the push switch 14, which will make the corresponding warning light 15 work through the wire, and provide real-time feedback on the docking or disconnection status of the detection socket 13.

[0023] In one optional embodiment, the push switch 14 and the warning light 15 are configured in a one-to-one correspondence, and the push switch 14 and the warning light 15 are electrically connected by a wire. When the push switch 14 is triggered by the mounting rod 12, the warning light 15 will light up or turn off, visually displaying the working status of each workstation in the form of light, which is convenient for operators to monitor.

[0024] Working principle: The storage device to be tested is placed in the mounting slot 4 on the switching disk 3. The mounting slot 4 initially positions the device. By rotating the clamping rod 7, which is threadedly connected to the slide 5, the clamping rod 7 moves downward along the slide 5, driving the pressure plate 6 connected to the lower end to press down and fix the storage device in the mounting slot 4, ensuring stable contact during testing and avoiding test interruption due to vibration. The switching motor 2 is installed inside the lower end of the base 1. Its output shaft drives the switching disk 3 to rotate. The switching disk 3 has multiple mounting slots 4, which can simultaneously support multiple storage devices. The rotation of the switching motor 2 realizes the switching of different work positions, allowing the loading and unloading work position and the testing work position to work in parallel, improving efficiency. When the switching disk 3 rotates to a specific angle, the storage device in the mounting slot 4 is aligned with the detection port 13 at the upper end of the mounting rod 12. The mounting rod 12 has an L-shaped design, and its lower surface is higher than the upper surface of the switching disk 3 to avoid interference with the switching disk 3 and ensure that the detection port 13 is at the appropriate height. The drive motor 9 on the lower surface of the mounting plate 8 starts, and the output shaft drives the drive gear 10 to rotate. The drive racks 11 on both sides of the drive gear 10 mesh with the drive gear 10. When the drive gear 10 rotates, the drive racks 11 on both sides slide in opposite directions, driving the upper mounting rod 12 and the detection socket 13 to move precisely towards the storage device, realizing the automatic insertion of the detection socket 13. After the detection socket 13 is connected to the storage device interface, electrical connection and performance testing are performed, replacing manual insertion and removal, and avoiding interface damage due to improper force or angle control. When the mounting rod 12 drives the detection socket 13... When the insertion or removal action is completed, one end of the mounting rod 12 triggers the corresponding push switch 14 on the mounting plate 8. The push switch 14 is electrically connected to the warning light 15 through a wire. After being triggered, the warning light 15 lights up or goes out, visually displaying the station status such as in the process of testing or testing completed, which is convenient for operators to monitor. After the test is completed, the drive motor 9 reverses, driving the test socket 13 to be pulled out. The switching motor 2 starts again, and the switching disk 3 rotates to the next mounting slot 4 corresponding to the test station. The above test process is repeated to realize multi-station automatic testing in turn, which meets the needs of large-scale production.
