[0063] The workpiece transport assembly 2 includes a first bracket 201 arranged on the frame 1 and two first guide rails 202 arranged on the first bracket 291. The two first guide rails 202 are arranged in parallel and extend along the first conveying direction. A first conveyor belt 203 is arranged on the inner side of each first guide rail 202. The workpiece 100 is placed on the first conveyor belt 203 through a jig 300. The jig 300 is placed between the two first guide rails 202, and the size of the jig 300 in the second conveying direction is equal to or slightly smaller than the distance between the two first guide rails 202.

The output end of the first module 2041 can move back and forth along the first conveying direction. When observed along the first conveying direction, the sliding frame 2042 is U-shaped, and the two first guide rails 202 pass through the U-shaped part of the sliding frame 2042. The two top plates 2044 are respectively horizontally arranged at the two ends of the U-shaped part of the sliding frame 2042 and extend toward each other.

When in use, the jig 300 is located on the first conveyor belt 203 and moves to a designated position driven by the first conveyor belt 203. The distance measuring sensor 2045 moves upward and the detection end is aligned with the jig 300 in the up and down directions. The first module 2041 drives the sliding frame 2042 to move and detects the distance between the distance measuring sensor 2045 and the jig 300 in real time through the distance measuring sensor 2045.

[0068] The suction nozzle 4032 can move within a certain range in the up and down directions relative to the corresponding rotating rod 4031, and a spring is arranged between the suction nozzle 4032 and the rotating rod 4031. The spring is always in a compressed state, so that when the suction nozzle 4032 contacts the auxiliary material 200, it can have a certain buffering effect.

When the suction nozzles 4032 suck the auxiliary material 200, they pass through the second shooting component 405 in turn. The precise position of the auxiliary material 200 can be obtained through the second shooting component 405. By combining the precise position of the workpiece 100 obtained by the first shooting component 404, it is determined whether to adjust the angle of the auxiliary material 200.

In the process of moving along the first conveying direction, the tray 304 is always located above the third bracket 301 and can be supported on the third bracket 301 as needed.

[0078] When conveying the auxiliary materials, the third module 3071 moves along the first conveying direction with the clamping mechanism 3073, and when the first row slot 3042 on the material tray 304 at the material picking station moves to just below the suction nozzle 4032, it stops moving until all the auxiliary materials 200 on the row are taken away; then the third module 3071 drives the clamping mechanism 3073 to move a certain distance again, which is the distance between the two row slots 3042, until all the auxiliary materials 200 on the material tray 304 at the material picking station are taken away; the third module 3071 continues to move with the two clamping mechanisms, so that the material tray 304 originally located at the material picking station moves to the second row slot 3042, and the second row slot 3042 ... Directly below the material storage space 303, the material tray 304 originally located directly below the first material storage space 302 is placed at the material picking station, and then the clamping mechanism cancels the clamping, and the third module 3071 brings the two clamping mechanisms 3073 back to directly below the first material storage space 302 and the material picking station respectively, and the clamping mechanism 3073 located directly below the first material storage space 302 begins to receive the material tray 304 of new material on the first material storage space 302, and the clamping mechanism 3073 located at the material picking station clamps the material tray 304 located at the material picking station, and then the third module 3071 brings the clamping mechanism 3073 to move along the first conveying direction, and so on.

[0079] Second baffles 309 are disposed on the third bracket 301 and on both sides along the second conveying direction. Preferably, there are two second baffles 309 on each side of the third bracket 301 . The second baffle 309 is rotatable, and its rotation axis is parallel to the first conveying direction. A torsion spring (not shown) is arranged on its rotation axis. The torsion spring always has a torque to restore the second baffle 309 to its initial position. When the second baffle 309 is in the initial position, its upper surface is flat and partially extends into the second storage space 302. When the clamping mechanism 3073 moves the material tray 200 to the bottom of the second storage space 303, the clamping mechanism 3073 moves the material tray 200 upward and pushes the second baffle 309 to rotate, so that the second baffle 309 is rotated out of the second storage space 303. When the material tray 200 moves upward to a predetermined height, the second baffle 309 is separated from the material tray 200 and restored to its initial position under the action of the torsion spring. Then the clamping mechanism 3073 releases the material tray 200 and moves downward. During the downward movement, the material tray 200 will be blocked by the second baffle 309 and then stored in the second storage space 303.

[0080] Preferably, the auxiliary material transport component 3 further includes a third shooting component 310, which is located directly above the material tray 304 at the material picking station and shoots downwards, and determines whether there are auxiliary materials 200 on the material tray 304 and the position of the auxiliary materials 200 through the photographed pictures. After the third shooting component 310 completes the shooting, the material picking component 304 picks up the auxiliary materials 200 at the corresponding position. The third shooting component 310 can move back and forth along the second conveying direction to facilitate shooting of the auxiliary materials 200 in the same row of the drum.
