Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hard disk testing technology, and in particular to a hard disk inspection and testing fixture. Background Technology
[0002] After the hard drive motherboard is manufactured and finally assembled into a casing to form a hard drive, it is necessary to verify its various parameters, such as the hard drive's capacity, temperature, total reads, total writes, and power-on cycles, which is called disk check operation.
[0003] The current disk checking operation generally involves manual plugging and unplugging of the disk interface. That is, the operator uses a test plug with an interface to plug into the hard drive interface, and then the test device detects various parameters of the hard drive and displays them on the monitor, so that the operator can intuitively see whether the hard drive is qualified. However, the operator can only plug and unplug one hard drive at a time, which is inefficient.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new technical solution to address the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the shortcomings mentioned above, this utility model aims to provide a technical solution that can solve the above problems.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a hard disk inspection and testing fixture, including a base, on which a linear mechanism, a detection head, and a workpiece positioning mechanism are provided; The detection head is equipped with multiple detection connectors, and the workpiece positioning mechanism is used for positioning multiple stacked hard drives. The detection head is driven to move linearly towards the workpiece positioning mechanism through a linear mechanism, so that the detection connectors are plugged into the interface of the hard drives.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the workpiece positioning mechanism includes a lower positioning plate and an upper positioning plate, and a lower positioning groove and an upper positioning groove are respectively opened on opposite sides of the lower positioning plate and the upper positioning plate, and both the lower positioning groove and the upper positioning groove have an upper opening; The lower positioning groove and the upper positioning groove form a positioning placement area. The upper positioning plate has a through hole on the side facing the detection head, and the through hole is connected to the upper positioning groove.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: an assembly plate is also provided on the base, the linear mechanism is fixedly connected to the assembly plate, and the detection head is fixedly installed on the assembly plate.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a slot is provided on the assembly plate, the detection head is fixed in the slot, and the detection connector protrudes from the surface of the assembly plate.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the base has an internal hollow structure, and the upper end face of the base is provided with a wire hole communicating with the internal hollow structure.

[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the upper end of the base is inclined, and the linear mechanism, detection head, workpiece positioning mechanism and protective cover are all installed at an inclination and the inclination angle of the upper end of the base is consistent with that of the base.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this technical solution are as follows: This utility model sets multiple detection connectors on the detection head to connect with multiple stacked hard drives. The stacked hard drives are positioned accurately and stably by the workpiece positioning mechanism to avoid shaking after the hard drives are placed.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. 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 protection scope of the present utility model.
[0019] Please see Figure 1-3 A hard drive inspection and testing fixture includes a base 1, on which a linear mechanism 2, a detection head 3, and a workpiece positioning mechanism 4 are provided; The detection head 3 is provided with multiple detection connectors 31. The workpiece positioning mechanism 4 is used for positioning multiple stacked hard disks. The linear mechanism 2 drives the detection head 3 to move linearly towards the workpiece positioning mechanism 4, so that the detection connectors 31 are connected to the interface of the hard disks.
[0020] Specifically, during the disk inspection operation, this embodiment takes stacking 6 hard drives at once as an example. After stacking the 6 hard drives to be tested, they are positioned by the workpiece positioning mechanism 4. Then, the linear mechanism 2 drives the detection head 3 to move linearly toward the hard drives, so that multiple detection connectors 31 on the detection head 3 (the number of detection connectors 31 is 6 for example) are plugged into the interface of the hard drives. The detection head 3 is connected to a detection device (not shown in the figure). After the detection device detects the parameters of each hard drive through the detection head 3, it transmits the parameter data to an external display (not shown in the figure) for display. After the detection is completed, the linear mechanism 2 drives the detection head 3 to reset, so that the detection connectors 31 are pulled out from the hard drive interface. Then the hard drives that have been tested can be removed from the workpiece positioning mechanism 4. Among them, the detection connector 31 is a SATA interface, which is matched with the hard drive interface; In summary, this utility model enables multiple detection connectors 31 on the detection head 3 to connect with multiple stacked hard drives. The stacked hard drives are positioned accurately and stably by the workpiece positioning mechanism 4 to prevent shaking after placement. At the same time, the linear mechanism 2 drives the detection head 3 to maintain linear movement, ensuring the connection accuracy between the detection connectors 31 and the hard drive interfaces. This allows for the simultaneous insertion and removal detection of multiple hard drives, improving the efficiency of hard drive inspection.
[0021] Based on the above embodiments, it is further proposed that the workpiece positioning mechanism 4 includes a lower positioning plate 41 and an upper positioning plate 42. The lower positioning plate 41 and the upper positioning plate 42 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the lower positioning plate 41 and the upper positioning plate 42, and both the lower positioning groove 411 and the upper positioning groove 421 have an upper opening. The lower positioning groove 411 and the upper positioning groove 421 form a positioning placement area 43. The upper positioning plate 42 has a through hole 422 on the side facing the detection head 3, and the through hole 422 is connected to the upper positioning groove 421.
[0022] Specifically, a positioning placement area 43 is constructed by the lower positioning groove 411 and the upper positioning groove 421 opened on the lower positioning plate 41 and the upper positioning plate 42. The size of the positioning placement area 43 is consistent with that of the hard drive to be tested. When the hard drive is placed in the positioning placement area 43, the lower positioning groove 411 and the upper positioning groove 421 can fix the position of the hard drive, so as to prevent the hard drive from shaking when the test connector 31 is plugged into the interface of the hard drive, which would cause damage to the hard drive interface. The test head 3 can be plugged into the hard drive in the positioning placement area 43 through the through hole 422 opened on the upper positioning plate 42. When multiple stacked hard drives are placed in the positioning area 43, the two ends of the bottom hard drive will fit against the bottom surfaces of the lower positioning slot 411 and the upper positioning slot 421, thereby creating a certain gap between the bottom of the hard drive and the upper part of the base 1. This gap makes it easier for operators to place the stacked hard drives in the positioning area 43 and remove them from the positioning area 43.
[0023] Based on the above embodiments, it is further proposed that the base 1 is also provided with an assembly plate 5, the linear mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to the assembly plate 5, and the detection head 3 is fixedly installed on the assembly plate 5.
[0024] Specifically, by using the assembly plate 5 as a connector between the linear mechanism 2 and the detection head 3, when the linear mechanism 2 drives the assembly plate 5 to move linearly, it can drive the detection head 3, enabling the detection connector 31 to be inserted and removed from the hard disk interface. This achieves both the linear movement of the detection head 3 and avoids affecting the electrical connection between the detection head 3 and the detection device.
[0025] Preferably, the linear mechanism 2 includes a linear cylinder 21, the telescopic rod of the linear cylinder 21 is connected to a fixed head 22, the fixed head 22 is fixedly connected to the assembly plate 5, when the linear cylinder 21 is started, its telescopic rod drives the fixed head 22 to move, thereby driving the assembly plate 5 to perform linear motion.
[0026] More preferably, the assembly plate 5 has a slot 51, the detection head 3 is fixed in the slot 51, and the detection connector 31 protrudes from the surface of the assembly plate 5; the detection head 3 is fixedly installed in the slot 51 of the assembly plate 5, which facilitates the connection of the wire led out from the detection head 3 to the detection device. Preferably, the wire connected to the detection head 3 should be reserved with a certain length to avoid the wire being pulled when the detection head 3 moves in a straight line, which would cause poor contact at the connection.
[0027] More preferably, the base 1 has an inner hollow structure, and the upper end face of the base 1 has a wire hole 11 that communicates with the inner hollow structure; the wires led out from the detection head 3 and the air supply pipe of the linear cylinder 21 can both be led out to the inner hollow structure of the base 1 through the wire hole 11, and the inner hollow structure of the base 1 has an opening on one side, through which the wires and air supply pipes are connected to the detection device and the air pump.
[0028] Based on the above embodiments, it is further proposed that the upper end of the base 1 is provided with a protective cover 6 that acts on the linear mechanism 2 and the detection head 3, and the upper end of the protective cover 6 has a flip cover 61 that is rotatably connected by a hinge. The protective cover 6 has a passage on the side facing the workpiece positioning mechanism 4 for the detection head 3 to enter and exit.
[0029] Specifically, the protective cover 6 protects the linear mechanism 2 and the detection head 3 from damage and also prevents the accumulation of dust and other impurities. The opening on one side of the protective cover 6 allows the detection head 3 to enter and exit, enabling the detection head 3 to connect with the hard drive. It is also connected to a hinged cover 61. Opening the cover 61 allows for the inspection of the internal linear mechanism 2 and the detection head 3. A snap-fit structure (not shown in the figure) is provided between the cover 61 and the protective cover 6 to fix the cover 61 when it is closed. This is an existing mature technology and will not be described in detail here.
[0030] Preferably, the protective cover (6) is also provided with a switch button (7), which is connected to the linear mechanism (2) by wires, so as to facilitate the operator to control the start and stop of the linear mechanism 2.
[0031] Based on the above embodiments, it is further proposed that the upper end of the base (1) is inclined, and the linear mechanism (2), detection head (3), workpiece positioning mechanism (4) and protective cover (6) are all installed at an inclination and have the same inclination angle as the upper end of the base (1).
[0032] The upper end of the base 1 is designed as an inclined surface, so that the workpiece positioning mechanism 4 can be installed at an angle. When the hard drive is placed, the positioning area 43 is angled upwards towards the operator, which facilitates the operator's insertion and removal.
[0033] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
