[0043] Embodiment one, as shown in FIGS. 1-3, 6, a fixture 10 for testing an optical module, the fixture 10 comprising a housing 11, a first temperature control assembly 12, a second temperature control assembly 13, a limiting structure 14 and a driving mechanism. The first temperature control assembly 12 and the second temperature control assembly 13 are oppositely spaced in the housing 11. Specifically, the first temperature control assembly 12 and the second temperature control assembly 13 are oppositely and respectively arranged at the top and bottom of the housing, wherein the first temperature control assembly 12 and the second temperature control assembly 13 are spaced apart by a predetermined distance.
[0044] The limiting structure 14 is provided with a limiting through hole 141, the limiting structure 14 is clamped between the first temperature control assembly 12 and the second temperature control assembly 13, and the opposite sides of the limiting through hole 141 are respectively provided with a first limiting boss 142 and a second limiting boss 143 corresponding to the first temperature control assembly 12 and the second temperature control assembly 13, and a plug-in cavity 144 for accommodating the optical module 2 to be tested is formed between the first limiting boss 142 and the second limiting boss 143, wherein the plug-in cavity 144 is shaped to match the shape of the optical module 2 to be tested. The first limiting boss 142 and the second limiting boss 143 both extend along the depth direction of the plug-in cavity.
[0045] The driving mechanism is arranged in the housing 11, and the driving mechanism is in driving connection with the first temperature control assembly 12 and the second temperature control assembly 13 respectively, so as to drive the first temperature control assembly 12 and the second temperature control assembly 13 to move towards the limiting structure 14 to abut against the optical module 2.
[0046] In the present disclosure, the plug-in cavity formed by the first limiting boss 142 and the second limiting boss 143 can effectively limit the position of the optical module 2 when the optical module 2 is inserted into the plug-in cavity 144, avoiding the appearance wear caused by the position deviation of the optical module 2 and the friction with the heat sink during the insertion process. Further, the edges of the first limiting boss 142 and the second limiting boss 143 do not exceed the limiting structure 14, so that when the optical module 2 to be tested is inserted into the plug-in cavity 144, the upper surface and the lower surface of the optical module 2 to be tested are lower than the upper surface and the lower surface of the limiting structure 14. Therefore, when the optical module 2 is inserted into the plug-in cavity 144, the first limiting boss 142 can form a certain gap between the first temperature control assembly 12 and the optical module 2, and the second limiting boss 143 can form a certain gap between the second temperature control assembly 13 and the optical module 2, thereby avoiding the direct contact of the heat sink with the first temperature control assembly 12 and the second temperature control assembly 13, and further avoiding the wear of the heat sink. Further, by using the limiting action of the first limiting boss 142 and the second limiting boss 143, the accuracy of the insertion position of the optical module 2 can be ensured, the accuracy of the error code test can be ensured, and the service life of the test circuit board can be prolonged. The test circuit board is a DUT board (Device Under Test), which receives test signals from a BERT board, processes these signals according to its function, and then transmits the processed signals back to the BERT board.
[0047] In some embodiments, the material of the limiting structure 14 is PIG (phosphor in glass) material, which has high heat resistance and high thermal conductivity of inorganic material, and can significantly improve the wear resistance. In addition, in other embodiments, the material of the limiting structure 14 is self-lubricating material, including non-metallic self-lubricating material or high molecular self-lubricating material. The use of self-lubricating material can significantly reduce the friction between the insertion cavity 144 and the optical module 2, thereby effectively reducing the degree of wear.
[0048] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 4-6, the limiting structure 14 includes a first limiting block 145 and a second limiting block 146 arranged opposite to each other. The first limiting block 145 and the second limiting block 146 are respectively provided with a first limiting boss 142 near one side of the first temperature control component 12, and are respectively provided with a second limiting boss 143 near one side of the second temperature control component 13. The first limiting boss 142 and the second limiting boss 143 respectively extend along the length direction of the insertion cavity 144. It can be understood that the extension length of the first limiting boss 142 and the second limiting boss 143 is designed according to the actual contact length of the first limiting boss 142 and the second limiting boss 143 with the optical module 2.
[0049] In a specific example, the first temperature control component 12 and the second temperature control component 13 are vertically arranged, the first temperature control component 12 is arranged at the top of the shell, and the second temperature control component 13 is arranged at the bottom of the shell. The first limiting block 145 and the second limiting block 146 are located between the first temperature control component 12 and the second temperature control component 13 and are horizontally arranged, and the first limiting block 145 and the second limiting block 146 are arranged opposite to each other in position and jointly define an insertion cavity 144 extending in the insertion direction of the optical module 2, and a limiting through hole 141 communicating with the insertion cavity 144. The number of limiting through holes 141 is two, one limiting through hole 141 corresponds to the position of the first temperature control component 12, and the first temperature control component 12 abuts against the top end of the optical module 2 in the insertion cavity 144 by penetrating into the limiting through hole 141. The other limiting through hole 141 corresponds to the position of the second temperature control component 13, and the second temperature control component 13 abuts against the bottom end of the optical module 2 in the insertion cavity 144 by penetrating into the limiting through hole 141.
[0050] In the present disclosure, by setting the first limiting boss 142 and the second limiting boss 143, the optical module 2 inserted into the insertion cavity 144 can be circumferentially positioned, thereby avoiding the position deviation of the optical module 2 in the insertion process and the abrasion caused by the friction between the heat sink. Further, in the direction in which the second limiting boss 143 points to the first limiting boss 142, the edges of the first limiting boss 142 and the second limiting boss 143 do not exceed the limiting structure 14. Thus, when the to-be-tested optical module is inserted into the insertion cavity 144, the upper surface and the lower surface of the to-be-tested optical module are lower than the upper surface and the lower surface of the limiting structure 14, i.e., the first limiting boss 142 is lower than the upper surface of the limiting structure 14, and the second limiting boss is higher than the lower surface of the limiting structure 14. Thus, the first limiting boss 142 and the second limiting boss 143 play a guiding role for the optical module 2 in the length direction of the insertion cavity 144, which can effectively ensure the insertion accuracy of the optical module 2 and avoid the damage of the test circuit board caused by inaccurate insertion.

The limiting structure 14 in the form of an integral structural member can effectively ensure the structural strength of the limiting structure 14, and is also conducive to the maintenance of the equipment.
