Abstract
A probe structure for testing a to-be-tested object having at least one to-be-tested device. The probe is inserted into a pin hole formed on a pin board and contacts the to-be-tested device. The probe includes a probe body and a resilient member. The probe body has an insertion portion and a head contacting the to-be-tested device. The resilient member is placed within the pin hole of the pin board and has a top end and a bottom end. The top end is formed with a support portion contacting the insertion portion of the probe body when the probe body is inserted into the pin hole. Thus, the probe body can be elastically restored and properly guided.
Claims1
A probe structure for testing a to-be-tested object having at least one to-be-tested device, the probe being inserted into a pin hole formed on a pin board and contacting the to-be-tested device, the probe structure comprising:
- a probe body having an insertion portion and a head contacting the to-be-tested device;
- and
- a spring placed within the pin hole of the pin board and having a top end and a bottom end, the top end being formed with a support portion contacting the insertion portion of the probe body, the support portion being made of bottleneck-shaped, and being integrally formed with the spring by winding the spring, and having a diameter smaller than that of the probe body, when the probe body is inserted into the pin hole, so that the probe body can be elastically restored and properly guided.
