Current common testing methods suffer from the following problems: (1) Specialization and single use: Traditional electrical testing equipment is mostly "one machine for one use", that is, one testing equipment can only test one type of product or one type of product (such as only testing ambient lights or only testing electric air vents), which leads to the need for multiple equipment in the production line, which takes up space, costs a lot, and is complicated to manage.
[0003] (2) Non-portable: Many testing devices are bulky and inconvenient to move, making them difficult to use flexibly at different workstations on the production line or inside vehicles, resulting in low testing efficiency.
[0004] (3) Low level of automation: Some detection relies on manual visual and auditory judgment, which is highly subjective and prone to missed detection and false detection. Furthermore, it cannot automatically record detection data and results, which is not conducive to quality traceability.
[0005] (4) Complex wiring: The detection harness and interface need to be frequently replaced for different components, which is cumbersome, prone to errors, and the harness wears out quickly. Utility Model Content

[0015] The components are: 1-display screen, 2-upper housing, 3-power interface, 4-USB flash drive interface, 5-multi-function detection interface, 6-lower housing, and 7-PCBA board. Detailed Implementation
[0016] Example 1: A portable, multi-functional electrical testing device for automotive electronic components after production line, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the device includes a housing, a circuit mechanism, and a display screen 1. The circuit mechanism includes a PCBA board 7 and circuit modules mounted on the PCBA board 7. The PCBA board 7 is located in the middle of the housing, and the display screen 1 is located on one side of the outer side of the housing. A power interface 3 and a multi-function detection interface 5 are located on one side of the PCBA board 7. The circuit module includes a control unit, a SOC chip, a CAN transceiver, a LIN transceiver serial communication unit, and a continuity / current detection unit. The control unit is connected in parallel with the multi-function detection interface 5 via the CAN transceiver, the LIN transceiver serial communication unit, and the continuity / current detection unit. The control unit is connected to the SOC chip via serial communication, and the SOC chip is connected to the outer display screen 1 and the wireless communication module.
[0017] Preferably, the display screen 1 is an existing touch display screen 1. The touch display screen 1 is embedded in the surface of the housing and electrically connected to the control unit, used to provide a human-machine interface to display detection options, operation buttons and detection results.
[0018] Preferably, such as Figure 3 As shown, the circuit module also includes a voltage regulator module, one end of which is connected to the power interface 3, and the other end is connected to the control unit and the SOC chip respectively. The PCBA board 7 also has a USB flash drive interface 4 at one end, which is connected to the SOC chip.
[0019] The control unit, acting as the system's brain, typically employs a high-performance microprocessor (such as the KF32A156). It is responsible for running the detection logic, processing data, and controlling peripheral circuits. The control unit is housed inside the casing, serving as the device's control core. It is electrically connected to the multi-functional detection interface 5 via its I / O ports, AD converter, and communication bus (such as a CAN / LIN bus module) to send control signals to the device under test and collect feedback signals.
[0020] SOC chip: Connects to the touch LCD via RGB and IIC interfaces to realize the human-computer interaction interface.
[0021] The voltage regulator module is the power source for the entire device. Its input is from an external power adapter. Its outputs include: ① providing various stable DC voltages (e.g., +5V, +3.3V, +12V) to all internal circuit boards (main control, display backlight, detection circuits, etc.); ② providing a crucial adjustable regulated output (simulating a car battery, typically 9-16V), which directly supplies power to the multi-function detection interface module 5, powering the tested components. The voltage regulator module is located inside the control unit, with its input connected to an external power source and its output providing stable and adjustable operating voltage and current to the entire device and each detection circuit.
[0022] Multifunctional Testing Interface 5: A collection of physical interfaces, customized with various types of interfaces according to the product being inspected (including a serial port for communication with the MES system, used to upload test results to the MES system for quality traceability).

[0023] USB Flash Drive Interface 4: An independent USB Host interface, directly connected to the SOC chip. It is the physical basis for realizing the "USB flash drive software upgrade" function, used to read upgrade files from an external USB flash drive. The control unit connects to the USB Host interface, which is exposed outside the chassis, for connecting an external USB flash drive. This allows for subsequent identification and verification of the upgrade files on the USB flash drive, guiding the system to complete firmware or application updates, thus enabling device self-upgrade and maintenance.
[0024] Wireless communication module: Wi-Fi or 4G module, used to upload test results to the MES system for quality traceability. This utility model integrates wired (serial port) and wireless (Wi-Fi) connections to upload test results and data to the factory's MES (Manufacturing Execution System) in real time, achieving networked traceability of quality data.
[0025] like Figure 4 As shown, the operation process and working principle of this utility model are described in detail as an example: 1) Operation preparation: The operator moves the equipment to the product to be inspected and connects the external power supply (12V).
[0026] 2) Select the test items: Select the test items and component types on the touch screen (e.g., select EHY->Subboard, the device will enter the electrical test interface, at which point the device will have electrical test functions for ambient lights, electric air vents and refrigerator actuators).
[0027] 3) Connect the equipment: Use the appropriate test harness to connect the corresponding interface of the equipment to the component under test.
[0028] 4) Perform the test: Click the "Start Test" button on the screen. The test control software will execute the preset test script, for example: Ambient light actuator detection: The actuator is powered on, and the supplier and software / hardware version information in the actuator is read and compared with the preset values to determine if they are correct; the actuator is controlled to change color and the status is indicated by the actuator feedback to determine if it is correct.
[0029] Electric air outlet actuator detection: The actuator is powered on, and the supplier and software / hardware version information in the actuator is read and compared with the preset values. The actuator is controlled to perform self-learning and cyclic fixed-point sweeping, etc. The total stroke is automatically determined to determine whether the actuator's cyclic fixed-point sweeping is allowed to reach the required position and whether the process is stuck.
[0030] Refrigerator actuator detection: The actuator is powered on, and the supplier and software / hardware version information in the actuator is read and compared with preset values. The actuator is controlled to switch working modes, set the temperature, etc. The execution status is judged based on the working status, set temperature, and peripheral working status fed back by the actuator.
[0031] Continuity / disconnection detection (e.g., cigarette lighter / wireless charging / USB box / rear screen): The interface of the assembly under test outputs 12V voltage, and the current in the detection circuit is within the normal range to determine whether it is a continuity / short circuit / open circuit.
[0032] Results Display and Upload: After the test is completed, the screen will clearly display "Pass" or "Fail" information and specific parameters. At the same time, the test data (test items, results, values, error messages) will be automatically uploaded to the MES system for archiving via wireless module / serial port.
