[0017] The technical solution of the utility model is further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0018] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a hidden screw locking mechanism includes a base 1, a positioning conversion camera 2, a servo upper and lower modules 3, a rotating module 4 and an electric screwdriver 5. A gantry 6 is installed above the base 1, and a transverse moving module 7 is installed on the gantry 6. The positioning conversion camera 2 and the servo upper and lower modules 3 are both installed on the driving end of the transverse moving module 7, the rotating module 4 is installed on the driving end of the servo upper and lower modules 3, and the electric screwdriver 5 is installed on the driving end of the rotating module 4.

[0019] When it is necessary to tighten the screws, the positioning conversion camera 2 performs CCD positioning conversion, controls the up and down movement of the servo upper and lower modules 3, adjusts the angle of the rotating module 4, and inserts the electric screwdriver 5 into the fan to tighten the screws.

[0020] Moreover, a forward and backward moving module 8 is installed on the base 1, a carrier 9 is installed on the driving end of the forward and backward moving module 8, a first driving motor 10 is fixed to the rear end of the forward and backward moving module 8, the first driving motor 10 controls the carrier 9 to move forward and backward along the forward and backward moving module 8 through the transmission of the screw rod and the nut, a second driving motor 11 is fixed to one side of the transverse moving module 7, the second driving motor 11 controls the positioning conversion camera 2 and the servo upper and lower modules 3 to move left and right along the transverse moving module 7 through the transmission of the screw rod and the nut, the outer side of the positioning conversion camera 2 is covered with a protective cover 12, a light source 13 is arranged under the positioning conversion camera 2, and a clamp 14 is installed at the front end of the rotating module 4, and the clamp 14 clamps the electric screwdriver 5.
