Description

Technical Field

Background Art

[0002] The commonly used methods for USB BOOT assembly at present are as follows:

[0003] 1. Manual BOOT assembly method. Manually assembling the BOOT usually involves manually sleeving the BOOT onto the USB head by a person. Its disadvantages are as follows: It consumes a lot of labor, has low efficiency and cannot be completed in batches in a short time; the manual BOOT assembly method cannot achieve uniformity in appearance and does not meet the production requirements; the working environment of manual operation is poor, and the long-term use results in too high labor costs.

[0004] 2. Fixture-assisted assembly method. The assembly principle of the fixture-assisted assembly method is the most traditional method and is also the most commonly used one. It sleeves the BOOT onto the USB head through a semi-mechanical method, which is much more standardized than pure manual work and the appearance requirements have also been improved. Although the fixture-assisted assembly method has made certain progress compared with pure manual operation, a large amount of manual labor is required, only the operation time is shortened a lot, the labor cost is high, the long-term use of the fixture will cause harm to the hands, and once the fixture has slight wear, it will affect the appearance of the USB head and increase the defective rate.
