[0006] Specifically, the automobile wiring harness connectors produced inside the automobile wiring harness connector production line can be transported to the inside of the delivery tray through the provided conveyor belt, and the power transmission shaft is driven to rotate by the power rotation motor. The rotation of the power transmission shaft can drive the connector push plate to rotate, and the rotation of the connector push plate can drive the automobile wiring harness connector entering the inside to rotate. The automobile wiring harness connector will continuously adjust its own position during the continuous rotation process. After reaching the predetermined position, it can be screened out when passing through the delivery screening block, enter the inside of the connector output device, be neatly arranged and transported to the outside world, completing the delivery of the automobile wiring harness connector. The whole process is automated and does not require human intervention, which can greatly reduce the use of manpower, and the delivery positioning speed and accuracy are greatly improved compared with traditional manpower.

[0007] Preferably, a rubber shock-absorbing pad is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the connecting and fixing base, and fixing through holes are opened on the upper surface of the connecting and fixing base near the edges.

[0008] Specifically, the connection fixing base can be relatively fixed on the ground through the fixing through hole, and the rubber shock-absorbing pad can reduce a certain amount of vibration.

[0009] Preferably, a threaded connection groove is provided on the upper end surface of the discharge tray, a protective cover is movably installed inside the threaded connection groove, a discharge limit rotation groove is provided on the inner bottom surface of the discharge tray, and a vibrator is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the discharge tray.

[0010] Specifically, the protective cover can be fixed on the upper end surface of the delivery tray through the threaded connection groove. The protective cover can prevent the automobile wiring harness connector inside the delivery tray from accidentally falling into the outside of the delivery tray. Starting the vibrator can drive the delivery tray to vibrate at high frequency to prevent the automobile wiring harness connector from being stuck in the delivery limit rotation groove. The delivery limit rotation groove can make the small head of the automobile wiring harness connector stuck in the delivery limit rotation groove, and the automobile wiring harness connector is driven to move along the delivery limit rotation groove through the connector push plate.

[0011] Preferably, a screening discharge hole is provided on the outer surface of one side of the discharge screening block, and the screening discharge hole is communicated with the interior of the discharge limit rotation groove.

[0012] Specifically, the automobile wiring harness connector whose small head is stuck in the discharge limit rotation groove can be screened out through the screening discharge hole. Since the discharge limit rotation groove is connected to the inside of the screening discharge hole, the screened automobile wiring harness connector can enter the connector output device through the screening discharge hole.

[0013] Preferably, a threaded fixing hole is provided on the upper end surface of the power transmission shaft near the center, and a threaded fixing knob is movably installed inside the threaded fixing hole.

[0014] Specifically, by screwing the threaded fixing knob into the threaded fixing hole, the threaded fixing knob can relatively seal the upper end opening of the installation limiting groove, and can relatively fix the connector push plate inside the installation limiting groove.

[0016] Specifically, the connector push plate can be connected to the power transmission shaft by the cooperation between the limiting connection block and the installation limiting groove, and the limiting block can relatively fix the connector push plate inside the second push plate.

[0017] Preferably, a storage connection groove is provided on one end surface of the second push plate, a return spring is fixedly installed inside the storage connection groove, and a guide wheel installation groove is provided on the outer surface of the other end of the second push plate, a direction guide wheel is movably installed inside the guide wheel installation groove.

[0018] Specifically, the return spring can provide a certain thrust for the limit block, and the limit block will move toward one end under the thrust, making it difficult for the connector push plate to enter the storage connection groove. The direction guide wheel can provide a certain thrust for the second push plate when the second push plate encounters resistance inside the delivery tray, thereby compressing the return spring to make the connector push plate enter the storage connection groove, reducing the total length of the connector push plate and the second push plate.

[0019] Preferably, a connector conveying groove is provided on the upper surface of the connector output, a power motor is fixedly installed on the outer surfaces of both sides of the connector output, a support shaft is movably installed on the connector conveying groove, one end of the support shaft is fixedly connected to the output end of the power motor, and a transport belt is provided on the outer surface of the support shaft.

[0020] Specifically, by starting the power motor, the support shaft can be driven to rotate, and the rotation of the support shaft can drive the transport belt to rotate. The automobile wiring harness connector entering the connector conveying groove will be driven by the transport belt to move.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. The power transmission shaft and the connector push plate cooperate with each other, and the threaded fixing knob is screwed into the threaded fixing hole. The threaded fixing knob can relatively seal the upper opening of the installation limit groove, and the limit connection block fixedly installed at one end of the connector push plate can be relatively fixed inside the installation limit groove. When the connector push plate needs to be repaired, it is only necessary to loosen and remove the threaded fixing knob, and the connector push plate can be taken out more conveniently.

[0023] 2. By cooperating with the set delivery tray and the power motor, the power rotation motor is started to drive the power transmission shaft to rotate. The rotation of the power transmission shaft can drive the connector push plate to rotate. Then the vibrator is started to drive the delivery tray to vibrate at high frequency. When the delivery tray vibrates, it can drive the automobile wiring harness connector to vibrate. The rotation of the connector push plate can drive the automobile wiring harness connector entering the interior to rotate. The automobile wiring harness connector will continue to vibrate during the continuous rotation process, thereby continuously adjusting its own position. After reaching the predetermined position, the small head of the automobile wiring harness connector will be stuck in the delivery limit rotation groove. The second push plate is used to drive the automobile wiring harness connector to move along the delivery limit rotation groove. The screening discharge hole can screen out the automobile wiring harness connector whose small head is stuck in the delivery limit rotation groove. No manual operation is required. The small head of the automobile wiring harness connector can be turned down and stuck in the delivery limit rotation groove.

[0024] 3. Through the cooperation between the cargo sorting block and the connecting conveyor, the automobile wiring harness connector will continuously adjust its position during the continuous rotation process. After reaching the predetermined position, it can be screened out when passing the cargo sorting block. Since the cargo tray is tilted as a whole, the automobile wiring harness connector that has not been adjusted to the appropriate predetermined position and enters the cargo limit rotation groove will fall to the lower part of the cargo tray and adjust its position again. Since the cargo limit rotation groove is connected to the inside of the screening discharge hole, the screened automobile wiring harness connector can enter the inside of the connector output device through the screening discharge hole. Starting the power motor can drive the support shaft to rotate, and the rotation of the support shaft can drive the transport belt to rotate. The automobile wiring harness connector that enters the connector conveying groove will be driven by the transport belt to move. Since the automobile wiring harness connector needs to pass the screening of the cargo sorting block, there will be no problem of incorrect placement of the automobile wiring harness connector.
