If the marking of the bottom shell 200 is qualified, the first bottom shell transplanting assembly 521 transplants the bottom shell 200 with qualified marking at the marking position to the carrier 41 on the carrier conveyor line 4. If the marking of the bottom shell 200 is unqualified, the bottom shell transfer assembly 522 transplants the bottom shell 200 with unqualified scanning at the scanning position to the bottom shell unqualified position, and the second bottom shell transplanting assembly 523 transplants the bottom shell 200 at the bottom shell unqualified position to the bottom shell defective product discharging conveyor line 512. After the bottom shell 200 is detected as unqualified by the bottom shell residue detection mechanism 514, the second bottom shell transplanting assembly 523 transplants the bottom shell 200 on the bottom shell loading conveyor line 511 that is detected as unqualified by the bottom shell residue detection mechanism 514 to the bottom shell defective product discharging conveyor line 512.

[0120] The first bottom shell transplanting assembly 521 transplants the bottom shell 200 between the bottom shell loading conveyor line 511, the marking position, the code scanning position and the carrier conveyor line 4.

The second bottom shell transplanting driving member 5212 drives the first bottom shell transplanting jaw member 5213, the second bottom shell transplanting jaw member 5214 and the third bottom shell transplanting jaw member 5215 to rise or fall simultaneously along the first direction. The first bottom shell transplanting driving member 5211 drives the second bottom shell transplanting driving member 5212 to move, so that the third bottom shell transplanting jaw member 5215 grabs the bottom shell 200 on the bottom shell loading conveyor line 511 and transplants it to the marking position. At the same time, the second bottom shell transplanting jaw member 5214 grabs the bottom shell 200 at the marking position and transplants it to the code scanning position. At the same time, the first bottom shell transplanting jaw member 5213 grabs the bottom shell 200 that has passed the code scanning at the code scanning position and transplants it to the carrier 41 on the carrier conveyor line 4. The bottom shells 200 placed at different positions can be displaced simultaneously, improving the operation efficiency.
