This paper first presents a patent pending drop tester which allows portable electronic products free drop at any orientation and drop height, and then introduces the drop tester experiment setup and its design principle. Using a cellular phone as an experiment object, we obtain some data such as the impact forces, the impact accelerations, and the strain of an interested spot. By analyzing experiment data the influence of impact to products in various states is investigated with the aim to provide help for the design of products and improvement of reliability.展开更多

文摘Portable electronic products are susceptible to accidental drop impact which can cause various functional and physical damage. This paper first presents a patent pending drop tester which allows portable electronic products free drop at any orientation and drop height, and then introduces the drop tester experiment setup and its design principle.
