  • Patent number: 11733267
    Abstract: A probe head includes an upper guide plate, a lower guide plate, and a plurality of probes. The upper guide plate includes a groove, and the upper guide plate is provided with an upper surface, a lower surface and a plurality of probe holes vertically penetrating the upper surface and the lower surface along a first direction. The groove is depressed from the upper surface, and provided with a groove bottom surface. The groove bottom surface is located between the upper surface and the lower surface. The lower guide plate is disposed on the upper guide plate. The probe is disposed in the groove. An end portion of a probe tail of the probe is located between the groove bottom surface and the upper surface. A probe card is also provided and the probe card includes a circuit board, a space transformer, and the probe head.

  • Patent number: 10119991
    Abstract: A vertical probe device includes a lower die having engaging holes and needle holes, a positioning film having limiting holes and needle holes, probe needles inserted through the needle holes, and supporters having at least an upper stopping surface and at least a lower stopping surface for moveably limiting the positioning film therebetween. Each supporter has a head, a neck passing through the limiting hole and having a length longer than the thickness of the positioning film, a body, and a tail inserted into the engaging hole, which are connected in order, and at least one of the upper and lower stopping surfaces. The supporters can prevent the positioning film from being lifted and flipped over and enables the positioning film to move so that the probe needles are reliable.

  • Patent number: 9465050
    Abstract: An assembling method for a vertical probe device includes steps of disposing a lower die on a jig by inserting supporting columns through jig holes of the lower die, fastening a positioning film on the supporting columns, installing probe needles and an upper die in a way that the positioning film is located between the upper and lower dies without contacting the upper die, unfastening the positioning film, and removing the jig so that the upper and lower dies, positioning film and probe needles constitute the device. A maintaining method for the device includes steps of inserting the supporting columns through the jig holes, fastening the positioning film to the jig, and removing the upper die. The probe needles and upper die are easily removed and installed and the probe needles are reliable. The vertical probe device is applicable for accommodating electronic components on the top thereof.
