Patent ID: 7386411

Claim:
An automatic hi-pot test apparatus comprising: a high voltage supply; a transmission device configured for transmitting an electronic device to be tested, the transmission device comprising a board for carrying the electronic device, the board comprising a power socket configured for connecting with a power plug of the electronic device, and a connector electrically connected with the power socket; a connecting device comprising a contact member corresponding to the connector of the board, the contact member being electrically connected to the high voltage supply, and configured for moving and electrically connecting with or electrically disconnecting from the connector of the electronic device; a controller for controlling the connecting device and the transmission device; and a detector for detecting the presence of the electronic device; wherein when the detector detects the presence of the electronic device, the detector sends a corresponding detecting signal to the controller, such that the controller stops the electronic device and drives the connecting device to electrically connect with the electronic device whereby a hi-pot test can be performed, and when the hi-pot test is finished, the controller drives the connecting device to disconnect from the electronic device whereby the electronic device can transmit elsewhere by operation of the transmission device.
