The end plate is connected to the bottom plate, and the guide rod is connected to the end plate. A plurality of first clamping blocks are sleeved on the guide rod, and the plurality of retaining rings are arranged at intervals in the length direction of the guide rod. One end of each elastic element abuts against the corresponding retaining ring, and the other end of each elastic element abuts against the corresponding first clamping block. The guide rod is fixed to the end plate, so that a plurality of first clamping blocks are sleeved on the guide rod, and the retaining rings are arranged on the guide rod to facilitate the installation of the elastic elements. One end of the elastic element abuts against the retaining ring, and the other end abuts against the first clamping block, so that the first clamping block approaches the second clamping block to facilitate clamping of the product.

The second clamping blocks are slidably connected to the bottom plate through the second sliding plate, so that when the second driving member drives the second clamping blocks or the second sliding plate, all the second clamping blocks can be driven to approach or move away from the first clamping blocks, facilitating picking up the workpiece. In this way, when picking up the workpiece, the first clamping blocks or the second clamping blocks can be selectively driven individually according to the situation, or the first clamping blocks and the second clamping blocks can be driven simultaneously, so that the first clamping blocks approach or move away from each other, with better adaptability.

[0009] The embodiment of the present application further provides a jaw mechanism, which includes a first driving member and the jaw assembly in any one of the above, and the first driving member is used to drive the first sliding plate or the first clamping blocks to move relative to the bottom plate.
