[0043] The working principle of this invention is as follows:

[0044] like Figures 1-2As shown, during operation, the fixing ring 201 at the upper end of the sleeve support mechanism 2 is first opened, and the sleeve 5 is placed into the fixing ring 201. Then, the fixing ring 201 is closed to clamp and fix the sleeve 5. Next, the column 6 is supported and positioned by the column support mechanism 3 and the column fixing mechanism 4. The front part of the column 6 is supported by the column support seat 303 at the upper end of the column support mechanism 3. The column 6 is fixedly connected to the column fixing connection seat 404 at the upper end of the column fixing mechanism 4. During the fixing process, the column support seat 303 and the column fixing connection seat 404 are raised and lowered to keep the column 6 horizontal and coaxially aligned with the sleeve 5. Then, the auxiliary support mechanism 1 is activated and moves towards the sleeve 5 until the upper end of the auxiliary support mechanism 1... The auxiliary connecting beam 105 passes through the housing 5 and can dock with the front column 601 of the column 6. Then, the connecting sleeve 1051 at the end of the auxiliary connecting beam 105 is threadedly connected to the front column 601 to achieve a fixed connection with the column 6. Then, the auxiliary support mechanism 1, the column support mechanism 3, and the column fixing mechanism 4 move together along the X direction so that the column 6 is inserted into the housing 5. During the movement, the auxiliary connecting beam 105 can be adjusted laterally along the Y direction, and the column fixing connecting seat 404 can be tilted and adjusted laterally along the Y direction, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the docking position and attitude of the column 6. In addition, since the fixing clamp 201 can rotate, the housing 5 can also rotate adaptively during the assembly process.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, when the front part of the column 6 enters the housing 5, the column support seat 303 at the upper end of the column support mechanism 3 lowers and stops moving to avoid interference. At this time, the column 6 continues to move mainly by relying on the auxiliary support mechanism 1 and the column fixing mechanism 4. When the rear part of the column 6 also enters the housing 5, the auxiliary support mechanism 1 and the column fixing mechanism 4 both stop moving. Then, the connecting sleeve 1051 on the auxiliary connecting beam 105 is separated from the column 6, and the column fixing connecting seat 404 at the upper end of the column fixing mechanism 4 is also separated from the column 6. Then, each mechanism is withdrawn to its original position, and then the fixing clamp 201 is opened and the assembled workpiece is transferred using hoisting equipment.
