[0041] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, a visual positioning housing assembly device is used to automatically assemble Figure 11 The camera bracket shown in the figure includes a ball head base a, a base b, a ball head member c, a spring base d, a spring body e and a cover plate f in sequence; wherein the present embodiment includes a frame 1 and a rotating disk 2 rotatably mounted on the frame 1, a plurality of positioning fixtures 21 are equidistantly arranged at the edge of the rotating disk 2, and a first assembly station 3 for conveying the ball head base a to the positioning fixture 21 and assembling it, a second assembly station 4 for conveying the base b to the positioning fixture 21 and assembling it, and a third assembly station 5 for conveying the ball head member c to the positioning fixture 21 and assembling it are respectively arranged on the frame 1 along the circumference of the rotating disk 2. The third assembly station 5, the fourth assembly station 6 for conveying the spring base d to the positioning jig 21 and assembling it, the fifth assembly station 7 for conveying the spring body e to the positioning jig 21 and assembling it, the sixth assembly station 8 for conveying the cover f to the positioning jig 21 and assembling it, and the unloading station 9 for transferring the assembled finished product. A first screw tightening mechanism 10 is also provided between the third assembly station 5 and the fourth assembly station 6, and a second screw tightening mechanism 11 is also provided between the sixth assembly station 8 and the unloading station 9. The rotating disk 2 can drive the positioning jig 21 to rotate in sequence for assembly.
[0042] In this embodiment, 12 positioning jigs 21 are equidistantly arranged at the edge of the end face of the rotating disk 2 (the number of positioning jigs 21 can be increased or decreased according to actual application). The positioning jigs 21 are composed of positioning blocks with positioning grooves and positioning pins, and the first assembly station 3, the second assembly station 4, the third assembly station 5, the fourth assembly station 6, the fifth assembly station 7, the sixth assembly station 8 and the blanking station 9 are arranged in sequence around the rotating disk 2 on the side of the frame 1. A first screw tightening mechanism 10 is provided between the third assembly station 5 and the fourth assembly station 6, and a second screw tightening mechanism 11 is provided between the sixth assembly station 8 and the blanking station 9. Driven by the rotating disk 2, each positioning jig 21 will rotate to the position of each station and each tightening mechanism in turn and stop. When the equipment is started, the rotating disk 2 is in the initial position, and each positioning jig 21 is assembled with components. At this time, the first assembly station 3 automatically places the ball head base a into the positioning jig 21 located in the station. Then the rotating disk 2 rotates and brings the positioning jig 21 equipped with the ball head base a to the second assembly station 4. The second assembly station 4 places the base b into the corresponding positioning jig 21 and connects it to the ball head base a to form the basic structure of the bracket. At this time, the first assembly station 3 also starts to place the ball head base a on the new positioning jig 21. The rotating disk 2 then continues to rotate to the third assembly station 5. The third assembly station 5 places the ball head piece c into the positioning jig 21 and combines it with the previously assembled part to adjust the angle of the camera. After the ball head piece c is assembled, the rotating disk 2 rotates the positioning jig 21 into the first screw tightening mechanism 10 to screw the assembled part. After the screw tightening is completed, it continues to rotate to the fourth assembly station 6, and the spring base d is sent into the positioning jig 21 for assembly to provide support for the subsequent spring body e. Then it rotates to the fifth assembly station 7, where the spring body e is fed into the positioning jig 21 and embedded in the spring base d. It then rotates to the sixth assembly station 8, where the cover plate f is fed into the positioning jig 21 and assembled with the previous components to cover the outermost layer to complete the package. When the assembly of the cover plate f is completed, it enters the second screw tightening mechanism 11 to perform the final screw tightening on the entire camera bracket. After all assembly and screw tightening are completed, it rotates to the unloading station 9, where the finished product is taken out of the positioning jig 21 and transferred to the unloading area. The entire assembly process is carried out continuously. After each station completes its task, the rotating disk 2 will take the positioning jig 21 to the next station or tightening mechanism. The order and quantity of the above-mentioned assembly stations and screw tightening structures can be adjusted according to the different specifications of camera brackets. Through turntable-type automated assembly, the need for manual intervention is reduced, the production speed and efficiency of the camera bracket are improved, and the use of precise mechanical positioning and screw tightening mechanisms can ensure the assembly accuracy and consistency of each camera bracket, thereby ensuring the quality of the product.

The sixth moving mechanism 86 clamps the ejected cover plate f and moves it into the fourth rotating assembly 84. The third camera detection assembly 85 detects whether the rotation angle of the cover plate f is correct to ensure that the cover plate f is in the correct assembly position. The sixth moving mechanism 86 moves again to move the cover plate f rotated to the appropriate angle into the positioning fixture 21 and covers it above the above-mentioned components. Then the second clamping assembly 87 moves to clamp the cover plate f placed in the positioning fixture 21 to ensure its stability. The second clamping assembly 87 includes three clamping cylinders located above the positioning fixture 21. The three clamping cylinders act simultaneously to quickly and evenly clamp the cover plate f.
[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, the unloading station 9 of this embodiment includes a unloading hopper 91 with one end adjacent to the positioning jig 21 on the rotating disk 2, and a seventh moving mechanism 92 provided beside the unloading hopper 91 for clamping and moving the assembled finished product in the positioning jig 21 into the unloading hopper 91. After the camera bracket in the positioning jig 21 is assembled and tightened with screws, the rotating disk 2 rotates the positioning jig 21 to the unloading station 9. The seventh moving mechanism 92 is actuated to clamp the camera bracket in the positioning jig 21 and move it above the unloading hopper 91, then release the camera bracket, causing it to fall into the unloading hopper 91. The seventh moving mechanism 92 returns to its initial position, waiting for the next camera bracket to arrive.
[0052] In summary, the beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: By integrating the first assembly station 3, the second assembly station 4, the third assembly station 5, the fourth assembly station 6, the fifth assembly station 7, and the sixth assembly station 8, this embodiment can automatically assemble the ball head base a, the base b, the ball head member c, the spring base d, the spring body e, and the cover f into a camera bracket. Furthermore, by providing the first screw tightening mechanism 10 and the second screw tightening mechanism 11, screws can be automatically driven into each component to complete the tightening. Precise mechanical positioning ensures that each component is accurately installed in place, reducing assembly errors. Furthermore, multiple assembly stations can operate simultaneously, each responsible for a specific assembly task. Through a cyclical production process, continuous and uninterrupted production is achieved, greatly improving production efficiency.
