The pipe fitting feeding and assembly system as described in claim 1, characterized in that, The pipe loading gripper is equipped with a round pipe clamp, which is used to clamp the pipe from the pipe basket and place it on the transfer car; the left side plate loading gripper and the right side plate loading gripper are equipped with side plate suction heads, the side plate suction head of the left side plate loading gripper is used to adsorb the left side plate in the left side plate loading mechanism and place it on the pressing assembly mechanism, and the side plate suction head of the right side plate loading gripper is used to adsorb the right side plate in the right side plate loading mechanism and place it on the pressing assembly mechanism.

4. The pipe fitting feeding and assembly system as described in claim 1, characterized in that, The shuttle vehicle includes a frame, a pipe receiving mechanism, a pipe moving support, a transverse slide rail, and a longitudinal slide rail. The pipe receiving mechanism is located at the front end of the frame, and the transverse and longitudinal slide rails are mounted on the frame. The transverse slide rail is horizontal, and the longitudinal slide rail is vertical. The front end of the transverse slide rail corresponds to the pipe receiving mechanism, and the rear end of the transverse slide rail corresponds to the bottom end of the longitudinal slide rail. The pipe moving support is movable on the transverse and longitudinal slide rails. The pipe receiving mechanism receives the pipes gripped by the round pipe clamps of the pipe loading gripper and transfers the pipes to the pipe moving support. The pipe moving support carries the pipes and moves them on the transverse and longitudinal slide rails, transferring them to the pressing and assembly mechanism.

5. The pipe fitting feeding and assembly system as described in claim 3, characterized in that, The sliding guide rail base is provided with a left drive motor, a left sliding slide rail, a right drive motor, and a right sliding slide rail. The left drive motor is located on the left side of the sliding guide rail base and drives the left sliding slide rail to slide. The left assembly mechanism is located on the left sliding slide rail. The right drive motor is located on the right side of the sliding guide rail base and drives the right sliding slide rail to slide. The right assembly mechanism is located on the right sliding slide rail.

6. The pipe fitting feeding and assembly system as described in claim 3, characterized in that, The left assembly mechanism and the right assembly mechanism are arranged in a mirror image; both the left assembly mechanism and the right assembly mechanism include an upper pressure block, an upper hydraulic cylinder, a lower pressure block and a lower hydraulic cylinder, the upper pressure block and the lower pressure block are arranged correspondingly, the upper hydraulic cylinder is used to drive the upper pressure block to move up and down, and the lower hydraulic cylinder is used to drive the lower pressure block to move up and down.

7. The pipe fitting feeding and assembly system as described in claim 1, characterized in that, The left and right side plate feeding mechanisms are mirror images of each other. Each mechanism includes a side plate basket, a material quantity recognition camera, and a flipping mechanism. The flipping mechanism is located on one side of the side plate basket, and the material quantity recognition camera is located above it. The material quantity recognition camera is used to identify the number of side plates in the basket. A material leakage mechanism is provided at the bottom of the basket. When the material quantity recognition camera detects that the number of side plates in the basket exceeds the top surface of the basket, the leakage mechanism opens to release a portion of the side plates. The flipping mechanism is used to identify the front and back sides of the side plates grabbed from the basket by the left or right side plate feeding gripper, and flips the side plate to the front side when it is the back side.

8. The pipe fitting feeding and assembly system as described in claim 7, characterized in that, The flipping mechanism includes a detection camera, a side plate placement plate, a U-shaped component, a roller bearing follower, a side plate flipping plate, a rotary guide block, and a flipping cylinder. The side plate placement plate is adjacent to the detection camera. The U-shaped component surrounds the side plate flipping plate and is located on the side away from the detection camera. The flipping cylinder is connected to the U-shaped component. The roller bearing follower is mounted on the U-shaped component. The side plate flipping plate is connected to the roller bearing follower. The rotary guide block is located on one side of the side plate placement plate and has a flipping guide groove. The roller bearing follower rolls along the flipping guide groove. The system is dynamically connected; the detection camera is used to identify the front and back sides of the side plate grabbed from the side plate basket by the left or right side plate loading gripper; the side plate placement plate is used to place and fix the side plate that is reversed; when the flipping cylinder extends, the side plate flipping plate is arranged parallel to the side plate placement plate above it, and the reversed side plate is locked on the lower surface of the side plate flipping plate; when the flipping cylinder retracts and extends, the flipping cylinder drives the U-shaped part to move away from the detection camera, and the roller bearing follower rolls along the flipping guide groove, causing the side plate flipping plate to flip so that the side plate is reversed to the front.
