[0050] The working process of the notebook computer cover opening device is as follows: Figure 4In the first step, the laptop computer 6 is centered on the laptop carrier 1; specifically, the laptop carrier 1 includes a centering cylinder 11 and a first clamping plate 111 and a second clamping plate 112 driven by the centering cylinder 11, and the two long sides of the laptop computer 6 are clamped by the first clamping plate 111 and the second clamping plate 112; the laptop carrier 1 also includes a conveyor belt 12, a front blocking mechanism 13 and a rear centering mechanism 14, the front blocking mechanism 13 includes a first lifting cylinder 131 and a blocking plate 132, and the rear centering mechanism 14 includes a second lifting cylinder 141 and a third horizontal telescopic cylinder 142 and a push plate 143, the second lifting cylinder 141 drives the third horizontal telescopic cylinder 142 to lift, and the third horizontal telescopic cylinder 142 drives the push plate 143 to move closer to or away from the laptop computer 6; after the laptop computer 6 is conveyed to the conveyor belt 12, the first lifting cylinder 131 drives the blocking plate 132 to rise and block the laptop computer 6; the centering cylinder 11 drives the first pressing plate 111 and the second pressing plate 112 to press the two long sides of the laptop computer 6; the second lifting cylinder 141 drives the push plate 143 to rise, and the third horizontal telescopic cylinder 142 drives the push plate 143 to press against the laptop computer 6;

[0051] In the second step, the first horizontal telescopic cylinder 32 drives the flexible suction cup 34 to align with the cover 61 of the laptop computer 6, that is, the flexible suction cup 34 is placed directly above the cover 61; the first lifting cylinder 33 drives the flexible suction cup 34 to descend and adsorb the cover 61, and the first lifting cylinder 33 drives the flexible suction cup 34 to ascend and drive the cover 61 to open to a first angle a, referring to the state of FIG. 1(b), the first angle a is 5°-15°; in this step, the cover 61 is opened to the first angle a so that a gap 63 of a certain height is provided between the cover 61 and the body 62;

[0052] In the third step, the rotary cylinder 41 drives the pressing block 43 to pass through the gap 63 between the cover 61 and the body 62 of the laptop computer 6, so that the pressing block 43 is aligned with the body 62, and the rotary cylinder 41 drives the pressing block 43 to descend and press the body 62. Through this step, the body 62 will not be driven during the cover opening process;

[0053] In the fourth step, the vertical lifting module 52 drives the push rod 55 to align with the gap 63 between the cover body 61 and the body 62; the second horizontal telescopic cylinder 53 drives the push rod 62 to enter the gap 63 between the cover body 61 and the body 62, and the push rod 55 abuts against the cover body 61; in order to prevent the cover body 61 from being scratched during the opening process, a rubber coating layer is provided on the surface of the push rod 55; through this step, the push rod 55 is in contact with the inner side of the cover body 61 opened to the first angle a;

[0054] Step 5: The first horizontal telescopic cylinder 32 and the first lifting cylinder 33 cooperate to drive the flexible suction cup 34 away from the top of the cover body 61.

[0059] How to open the cover of a laptop computer, see Figure 5 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0060] Step S1: The four sides of the laptop computer are centered and clamped; see the first step of Example 1 for details.

[0061] Step S2: using a flexible suction cup to absorb the cover of the laptop computer and flip it upward, so that the cover and the body of the laptop computer form a first angle, wherein the first angle is 5°-15°; see the second step of Example 1 for details.

[0062] Step S3: the pressing block is swung to the gap between the cover and the main body, and the pressing block presses the main body; see the third step of Example 1 for details.

[0063] Step S4: the push rod is moved to the gap between the cover body and the main body and abuts against the cover body; see the fourth and fifth steps of Example 1 for details.

[0064] Step S5: the push rod moves upward along the vertical trajectory, and the notebook moving module drives the cover body to translate along the horizontal trajectory. The vertical trajectory and the horizontal trajectory are combined to form the opening trajectory of the cover body, and the cover body is opened to a second angle, and the second angle is 90°-120°; see step 6 of Example 1 for details.

[0065] Through the above-mentioned opening steps, after the laptop computer 6 is opened, the laptop computer 6 is transferred to the next process by the laptop moving module 2; this embodiment cleverly makes full use of the opening time, and transfers the laptop computer 6 to the next process while opening the cover, saving processes and improving the opening efficiency and transfer efficiency of the laptop computer 6.
