ELECTRIC CHARACTERISTIC MEASURING INSTRUMENT FOR CHIP-SHAPED ELECTRONIC PARTS

PURPOSE:To continuously measure the electric characteristic of small-sized parts at a high speed by providing a rotating carrying body, plural rotating connectors, etc. CONSTITUTION:When chip capacitors 1 are successively carried to the position of a rotating connector 13 by a rotating carrying body 12, a rotating body 14 of the connector 13 rides on a terminal electrode 4 of each capacitor 1. Since the rotating body 14 of the connector 13 is energized toward the outside surface of a thick part 12a of the carrying body 12 at this time, the capacitor 1 is energized in a holding groove 22 toward a common terminal. Then, electrodes 4 and 5 of the capacitor 1 carried to the position of the connector 13 are connected to a C meter 15 by the connector 13 and a rotating connector 17, and a trigger signal is inputted to the meter 15 from a photo transistor 32 of a trigger device 19, and the electrostatic capacity of the capacitor 1 is measured. Thus, electrostatic capacities of many capacitors 1, 1... are continuously measured at a high speed by the carrying body 12 and connectors 13 and 17.
