[0054] Step 4: First, use the rotating table 41 to drive the four-split spacer bar 8 to rotate around the opening direction of the clamp 82 until the wire enters the inside of the clamp 82, and then drive the clamp clamping device 32 to move to the clamp 82 of the four-split spacer bar 8 through the swing arm 31, and close the clamp 82 on the four-split spacer bar 8 through the clamp clamping device 32 to clamp the clamp 82 on the four-split spacer bar 8 and the wire in the four-split wire 5 together;

[0055] Step 5, first open the spacer rod clamp 42 to loosen the four-split spacer rod 8, then drive the swing arm 31 and the rotating table 41 to continue to move backwards along the first direction, so that the spacer rod installation device 3, the spacer rod fixing device 4 and the four-split spacer rod 8 are separated, and finally drive the installation robot to take off and land on the ground through the flying mechanism 2.

[0056] The present invention, based on the installation characteristics of four-split spacer bars, designs a four-split spacer bar installation robot that integrates flight, carrying, and installation functions.
