[0025] A skeleton feeding mechanism 6 , a terminal feeding mechanism 7 , a first transfer mechanism 8 , a clamping mechanism 9 , a second transfer mechanism 10 , a first visual inspection mechanism 11 and a second visual inspection mechanism 12 are arranged on the frame 1 around the turntable 2 .

[0026] Among them, Figure 1 , the first visual inspection mechanism 11 is located above the skeleton feeding mechanism 6 and is used to cooperate in detecting the direction of the skeleton;

[0027] The first transfer mechanism 8 is used to clamp and position the skeletons and terminals on the skeleton feeding mechanism 6 and the terminal feeding mechanism 7 on the workstation 3 of the turntable 2 respectively;
