Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0025] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.
[0026] This application discloses a convenient 8-inch wafer test probe station. (See also...) Figures 1-6A portable 8-inch wafer test probe station includes a base 1, a test station 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, protective covers 3 on both sides of the test station 2, an adjustment component 4 in the inner cavity of the base 1, and a support component 5 on the surface of the protective cover 3.
[0027] The adjusting assembly 4 includes a screw 401, one end of which is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the base 1. A screw sleeve 402 is threaded onto the surface of the screw 401. One end of the screw 401 passes through the base 1 and is fixedly connected to a handwheel 403. Movable sleeves 404 are fixedly connected to both sides of the screw sleeve 402. A movable block 405 is fixedly connected to one side of the movable sleeve 404. An adjusting rod 406 is fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the movable block 405. An adjusting shell 407 is fitted onto the surface of the adjusting rod 406. One side of the adjusting shell 407 passes through the base 1 and is fixedly connected to the protective cover 3.
[0028] The support assembly 5 includes two fixed housings 501, which are located on both sides of the protective cover 3. A lifting frame 502 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the fixed housing 501. The bottom of the lifting frame 502 extends through to the bottom of the fixed housing 501. A support plate 503 is fixedly connected between the two lifting frames 502. By setting the adjustment assembly 4, simply turning the handwheel 403 will drive the screw 401 to rotate. The rotation of the screw 401 can drive the two protective covers 3 to be adjusted. The protective covers 3 can protect the test station 2 and facilitate the carrying and transportation of the test station 2. By setting the support assembly 5, the height of the support plate 503 and the lifting frame 502 can be adjusted as needed, thereby adjusting the overall operating height of the test station 2. This makes it convenient for the 8-inch wafer test probe station to be used in different terrains and for personnel of different heights and operating habits to use the 8-inch wafer test probe station.
[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6A limiting box 504 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed shell 501. The surface of the limiting box 504 is fixedly connected to the protective cover 3. A pull plate 505 is provided in the inner cavity of the limiting box 504. A plug rod 506 is fixedly connected to one side of the pull plate 505. Several slots 507 are sequentially opened from top to bottom on one side of the lifting frame 502. One end of the plug rod 506 passes through the limiting box 504 and the fixed shell 501 and extends into the inner cavity of the slot 507. A pull rod 508 is fixedly connected to the side of the pull plate 505 away from the plug rod 506. One end of the pull rod 508 passes through the limiting box 504 and the fixed shell 501. An operating lever 509 is fixedly connected to the outside of the positioning box 504. A spring 510 is fixedly connected to one side of the pull plate 505 at the top and bottom of the pull rod 508. One end of the spring 510 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the positioning box 504. By setting the insertion rod 506, it can be inserted into the slot 507 to fix the lifting frame 502. By setting the operating lever 509, it is easy for the user to pull the pull rod 508. By setting the spring 510, the pull plate 505 will squeeze the spring 510 when it moves, and the spring 510 can facilitate the reset of the pull plate 505.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The protective cover 3 has a handle 8 rotatably connected to its surface via a pivot. The screw 401 is rotatably connected to the base 1 via a bearing. The inner cavity of the movable sleeve 404 is slidably connected to a slide rod 408, both ends of which extend to the outer side of the movable sleeve 404 and are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the base 1. The surface of the adjusting rod 406 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjusting shell 407. Sliding blocks 6 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the base 1. The front and rear sides of the inner cavity of the protective cover 3 are provided with sliding grooves 7 that cooperate with the sliding blocks 6. The surface of the sliding blocks 6 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding grooves 7. By providing the handle 8, the user can easily move the entire probe station. By providing the bearing, the screw 401 can be easily rotated. By providing the slide rod 408, the range of movement of the movable sleeve 404 can be limited, preventing the movable sleeve 404 from tilting during movement. By providing the sliding grooves 7, the sliding blocks 6 can be easily used. By providing the sliding blocks 6 and the sliding grooves 7, the range of movement of the protective cover 3 can be limited, improving the stability of the movement of the protective cover 3.
[0031] Working principle: When the user needs to adjust the protective cover 3, they can turn the handwheel 403. The handwheel 403 drives the screw 401 to rotate, which in turn drives the screw sleeve 402 to move for adjustment. When the screw sleeve 402 moves forward, it drives the adjusting rod 406 forward through the cooperation of the moving sleeve 404 and the moving block 405. The adjusting rod 406 drives the two adjusting shells 407 on both sides to move towards the middle. The adjusting shells 407 can drive the two protective covers 3 on both sides to move towards the middle for adjustment, thus closing the testing table 2 and facilitating subsequent movement of the testing table 2. When the screw sleeve 402 moves backward, it drives the adjusting rod 406 backward. The adjusting rod 406 drives the two adjusting shells 407 to move away from each other, and the adjusting shells 407 drive the two protective covers 3 to move away from each other, thus releasing the closure of the testing table 2 and facilitating subsequent use of the testing table 2. This allows for the adjustment of the entire testing table 2. When the height is adjusted, the two operating levers 509 can be pulled. The operating levers 509, in conjunction with the pull rod 508, drive the pull plate 505 to move and compress the spring 510. The pull plate 505 drives the insertion rod 506 to move out of the slot 507, which can release the restriction on the lifting frame 502. At this time, due to gravity, the support plate 503 and the lifting frame 502 will move downward. After adjusting to a suitable distance, the insertion rod 506 can be inserted into the slot 507 to fix the lifting frame 502 and the support plate 503. The height of the entire testing station 2 can be adjusted by adjusting the height of the lifting frame 502 and the support plate 503. The protective cover 3 can protect the testing station 2 and facilitate the carrying and transportation of the testing station 2. By setting the support component 5, the eight-inch wafer test probe station can be used in different terrains and is also convenient for people of different heights and operating habits to use the eight-inch wafer test probe station.
[0032] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
