The wire harness pressing device according to claim 1, Features: The swing arm device comprises a base, a first driving module, a second driving module, a rotating disk and a swing arm mechanism, wherein the length direction of the swing arm device is a first direction, and the width direction is a second direction; The rotating disk is rotatably arranged on the base, a clearance through hole is opened in the middle of the rotating disk, the first driving module is drivingly connected to the rotating disk, a plurality of wire clamps for clamping the wire harness are arranged side by side along the second direction on the swing arm mechanism, a slide rail, a slider and a connecting member are arranged on the bottom side of the swing arm mechanism, the connecting member is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the rotating disk, the slider is slidably arranged on the slide rail along the first direction, and the output shaft of the second driving module passes through the clearance through hole upward and is connected to the slider; When the first driving module is started alone, the first driving module drives the rotating disk to rotate, thereby driving the swing arm mechanism to rotate, so that the wiring harness is switched to different stations for processing; When the first driving module and the second driving module are started at the same time, the first driving module and the second driving module cooperate with each other to drive the swing arm mechanism to move back and forth along the second direction, so that the wiring harnesses on the swing arm mechanism can be switched one by one for processing.

6. The wire harness pressing device according to claim 1, Features: The waterproof plug socketing device includes a frame, on which the first and second waterproof plug assembly units and a switching mechanism are respectively arranged. The first waterproof plug assembly unit and the second waterproof plug assembly unit are respectively used to socket different types of waterproof plugs on different types of wiring harnesses. The first waterproof plug assembly unit and the second waterproof plug assembly unit have the same structural principle.

7. The wire harness pressing device according to claim 6, Features: The first waterproof plug assembly unit includes a first conveying mechanism and a first assembly mechanism that are connected to each other, and a first material transfer mechanism is arranged above the first conveying mechanism and the first assembly mechanism, for taking out the waterproof plug from the first conveying mechanism and transferring it to the first assembly mechanism; The second waterproof plug assembly unit includes a second conveying mechanism and a second assembly mechanism that are connected to each other, and a second material transfer mechanism is arranged above the second conveying unit and the second assembly mechanism, for taking out the waterproof plug on the second conveying mechanism and transferring it to the second assembly mechanism; The first assembly mechanism and the second assembly mechanism are installed together on the switching mechanism, and the switching mechanism drives the first assembly mechanism and the second assembly mechanism to move telescopically together, so that the first assembly mechanism and the second assembly mechanism can switch with the wiring harness on the swing arm device to perform the corresponding type of waterproof plug socket connection work.

8. The wire harness pressing device according to claim 7, Features: The first conveying mechanism includes a material box, a vacuum suction pipe and a vibration feeding mechanism. The feed end of the vacuum suction pipe is inserted in the material box, and the discharge end of the vacuum suction pipe is connected to the conveying head end of the vibration feeding mechanism. The vacuum suction pipe sucks the waterproof plug in the material box and transmits it to the conveying head end of the vibration feeding mechanism. The vibration feeding mechanism is used to adjust the waterproof plug to an upright state for conveying.

9. The wire harness pressing device according to claim 1, Features: The length direction of the wire harness pressing equipment is defined as the front-to-back direction, and the width direction is the left-to-right direction. The wire feed device and the conveying mechanism are respectively arranged on the front and rear sides of the swing arm device. The wire harness is conveyed from front to back. The first processing position and the second processing position are arranged side by side on the left and right. The waterproof plug socket device and the terminal crimping device are both of different types.

10. The wire harness pressing device according to claim 3, Features: The transport mechanism includes first, second, third and fourth transport jaws. The first transport jaw is movably arranged between the wire cutting mechanism and the pipe threading mechanism, the second transport jaw is located between the wire paralleling mechanism and the pressing mechanism, the third transport jaw is movably arranged between the pressing mechanism and the heat shrinking mechanism, and the fourth transport jaw is movably arranged between the third transport jaw and the wire taking-up platform.
