US 2012/0268150 A1 · CAPACITOR TEST FIXTURE AND TEST SYSTEM EMPLOYING THE SAME

Abstract

A capacitor test fixture for positioning capacitors under test includes a main body, a clamping section, an operating section, and a cover. The main body defines an opening, a plurality of receiving slots at the bottom of the opening to receive the capacitors, some positioning slots located at opposite sides of the opening, and a sliding slot. The clamping section includes a first hook, and the operating section includes a second hook corresponding to the first hook. The cover locates and fixes the clamping section and the operating section to the main body. The operating section functions when the second hook holds back the first hook, the capacitors under test are received within the receiving slots, and when the second hook releases the first hook, the clamping section secures and makes contact with the capacitors for testing.

Dependent claims

A capacitor test fixture for positioning capacitors under test, comprising:

a main body defining an opening, a plurality of receiving slots at the bottom of the opening to receive the capacitors under test, a positioning slot located at one side of the opening, and a sliding slot located adjacent to the positioning slot;
a clamping section removably located at the positioning slots and the sliding slots, the clamping section comprising a first hook;
an operating section removably located at the positioning slot, and the operating section comprising a second hook corresponding to the first hook;
and
a cover for assembling the clamping section and the operating section to the main body, wherein the operating section is operated, when the second hook fastens the first hook, the capacitors under test can be received within the receiving slots, when the second hook is detached from the first hook, the clamping section secures and contacts the capacitors to test the capacitors.
