An adhesive strip 24 is installed between the flip cover 2 and the outer wall of the testing box 1. A fixing frame 4 and a partition 6 are installed on the flip cover 2.

[0020] The intelligent detection module 9 includes an MCU microcontroller 15, a data processing unit 16, a data output unit 17, and a storage unit 18. The components are connected by signals.

While providing adjustable power to the test neon lamp, the high-voltage power supply unit 7 can also fix the neon lamp under test. Furthermore, for the reliability verification of neon lamps, a high-temperature accelerated neon lamp life test is adopted. A ceramic heating element with a power of 1.2 kW is added to the inner wall of the test chamber 1. The temperature control range of the intelligent detection module 9 is 40-85℃. The double-layer tempered glass observation window 21 on the front of the test chamber 1 is resistant to 200℃. The internal baffle 13 and the isolation plate 14 are both made of nickel-plated aluminum alloy to prevent high-temperature oxidation.

A thermoelectric cooler (TEC) has been added to suppress temperature drift. The MCU microcontroller 15 synchronously collects temperature and brightness data and calculates the acceleration factor through the Arrhenius model. The neon lamp is tested at 85℃ for 100 hours, which is equivalent to 2000 hours of operation at 25℃. During operation, 32 NE-2 neon lamps are installed in the workstation, and the parameters are set as AC 120 V, temperature 85℃, and switching frequency 2Hz. After the heater is started, the temperature inside the chamber stabilizes to the target value within 10 minutes. In addition to threshold determination, the data processing unit 16 also records the brightness decay rate per thousand hours, such as "Workstation 07 - 1500 hours decay 22%". After the test, the storage unit 18 uploads the Weibull distribution curve to the server via Wi-Fi, which greatly shortens the reliability verification cycle.

[0022] The intelligent detection module 9 includes an MCU microcontroller 15, a data processing unit 16, a data output unit 17, and a storage unit 18. The components are connected by signals. The data processing unit 16 compares the brightness signal with the failure threshold in real time, automatically determines the failure, and records the time-brightness curve. The data output unit 17 automatically generates an average time between failures report and a Weibull distribution curve based on the measured data. The storage unit 18 stores the lifetime data locally and supports export via USB and Wi-Fi. Furthermore, the lightweight and portable design features a carbon fiber composite material for the testing box 1, resulting in a total weight of only 4.5 kg and a size reduced to 400×300×250 mm. The flip cover 2 integrates four testing stations 3, and the rotating shaft 5 is innovatively designed with a quick-release structure: pressing the knob 8 separates the cover for easy replacement of neon lamps in the field. The high-voltage power supply unit 7 has a built-in supercapacitor bank with an instantaneous discharge current of up to 2 A, supporting 2 hours of operation without an external power supply and enabling the testing of 50 neon lamps on a single charge. The photoelectric sensing unit 11 uses a Hamamatsu S1227 high signal-to-noise ratio silicon photodiode, combined with an adjustable gain operational amplifier circuit, with a minimum detection brightness of 0.1 cd / m². The display screen 10 installed on the front of the detection box 1 directly displays the time-brightness curve and the remaining power. The storage unit 18 supports remote transmission. Typical application scenario: Power inspection personnel carry the equipment to the substation, open the cover, insert the neon lamp of the fault indicator into test station 3, set the DC 90 V continuous test mode, and within 10 seconds the screen displays "Station 02 - brightness decayed to 18% of the initial value, failure determined", and the data is synchronously uploaded to the cloud to generate a diagnostic report.
[0023] Working principle: The operator first connects the power interface 22 on the side wall of the test box 1, initializes the system parameters through the front display screen 10, and sets the target temperature of the heater if accelerated aging test is required. Then, the high voltage power supply mode, AC or DC, is selected and the pulse width modulation frequency is set. After the preparation is completed, the flip cover 2 on the top of the test box 1 is flipped upward to expose the multiple test stations 3. The neon lamps to be tested are inserted one by one into the independent test stations 3 divided by the fixing frame 4 and the partition 6. Ensure that the electrodes at both ends of the lamp tube are accurately connected to the telescopic spring contacts in the high voltage power supply unit 7. According to the color of the neon lamp, the corresponding wavelength replaceable filter is installed for each photoelectric sensing unit 11. The system automatically collects the initial brightness value and sets the failure threshold. Rotating the knob 8 drives the rotating shaft 5 to lock. The seal is achieved by the rubber strip 24. At this time, the power line 23 hidden in the wiring tube 19 inside the rotating shaft 5 is connected to the power supply 12 to form a closed loop. After the test officially starts, the high-voltage power supply unit 7 applies a preset voltage to the neon lamp, and the neon lamp enters the working state and emits light. The light shines directly into the photoelectric sensing unit 11 above the baffle 13 in the independent optical path cavity formed by the isolation plate 14. The photosensitive element converts the real-time brightness into a voltage signal, which is transmitted to the intelligent detection module 9 through the signal line passing through the baffle 13. The MCU microcontroller 15 collects the photoelectric signal voltage value at a frequency of once per second. The data processing unit 16 continuously compares the current brightness with the failure threshold: if the sampling value is lower than the threshold for 5 consecutive times, the system determines that the neon lamp of the test station 3 is faulty; if the brightness is normal, the test time is continuously accumulated and the running status is refreshed to the display screen 10. Each test station 3 operates independently without interfering with each other, and the display screen 10 displays the status in zones. When a failure is detected at a certain workstation, the system automatically cuts off the high-voltage power supply to that channel within 0.5 seconds. A prompt appears on the display screen 10, and the storage unit 18 simultaneously records the complete time-brightness curve data of the neon lamp. If other workstations are still under testing, the system only shuts off the power to the failed workstation, while the others continue to run. When all tests are completed or manual termination is required, the operator opens the flip cover 2 to remove the neon lamp. After the test is terminated, the data output unit 17 automatically analyzes the data of the entire batch: calculates the mean time between failures, plots the Weibull life distribution curve, and generates a PDF report containing attenuation rate statistics. The final data can be exported via USB interface or uploaded to the cloud server via Wi-Fi. Routine maintenance requires regular cleaning of the lens of the photoelectric sensing unit 11 to prevent dust accumulation from affecting accuracy, and checking the elasticity of the spring electrodes of the high-voltage power supply unit 7 to avoid poor contact.
