[0026] Furthermore, a receiving cavity is provided in the driving seat 4 for the movable block 5 to move along the output end direction of the first driving member 3 , and the movable block 5 is movably arranged in the receiving cavity.

[0027] Specifically, the first driving member 3 is fixed to one end of the driving seat 4 away from the clamping jaw assembly 2, and the output end of the first driving member 3 protrudes into the accommodating cavity and is connected to the movable block 5. When the first driving member 3 is working, the movable block 5 performs linear reciprocating motion in the accommodating cavity together with its output end.

[0028] Furthermore, the clamping jaw assembly 2 includes two clamping jaws arranged opposite to each other, the two clamping jaws are respectively rotatably connected to the driving seat 4 , and the two clamping jaws respectively protrude into the accommodating cavity and abut against the movable block 5 .

[0029] In this embodiment, the clamping jaw assembly 2 is arranged at one end of the driving seat 4 away from the first driving member 3, and the two clamping jaws are respectively hinged with the driving seat 4, and one end of the two clamping jaws hinged with the driving seat 4 is surrounded by a wedge-shaped groove that abuts against the movable block 5.

The specific orientation of this embodiment is explained, that is, when the first driving member 3 drives its output end to move toward one end close to the clamping jaw assembly 2, the movable block 5 moves forward with its output end and pushes the two clamping jaws to rotate relative to the driving seat 4, and the two clamping jaws are relatively open; when the first driving member 3 drives its output end and the movable block 5 to reset backward, the two clamping jaws also rotate and reset relative to the driving seat 4, and the two clamping jaws are relatively closed.

Through the above-mentioned structural setting, the second drive member 7 drives its output end to make a linear reciprocating motion, thereby driving the connector 8 connected to its output end and the driving mechanism connected to the connector 8 to reciprocate relative to the mounting seat 1. According to the specific orientation of this embodiment, when the second drive member 7 drives its output end to move forward, it drives the connector 8, the driving mechanism and the clamping jaw assembly 2 to slide forward relative to the mounting seat 1, thereby transporting the screw clamped by the clamping jaw assembly 2 to the specified position; similarly, when the second drive member 7 drives its output end to reset backward, it drives the connector 8, the driving mechanism and the clamping jaw assembly 2 to reset relative to the mounting seat 1.

Specifically, the retractable member is a screwdriver rod, and the screw at the specified position is locked by the screwdriver rod.

[0038] In this embodiment, the screw is fed into the receiving claw 11 through the feeding tube 9, and the driving mechanism drives the jaw assembly 2 to open and clamp the clamping screw, and then the conveying mechanism drives the driving mechanism and the jaw assembly 2 to move relative to the mounting seat 1 along the output end direction of the second driving member 7 to the screw locking mechanism, and the driving mechanism drives the jaw to open and lower the screw, and then the locking member 12 locks the screw. At the same time, the conveying mechanism drives the driving mechanism and the jaw assembly 2 to reset relative to the mounting seat 1.

[0039] The working process of the screw transverse feeding mechanism of the utility model is as follows: first, the nail feeding mechanism feeds the screw into the feeding tube 9 and the material receiving claw 11, the first driving member 3 drives its output end to move, and drives the movable block 5 to move forward together, and the movable block 5 pushes the clamping jaw assembly 2 to make the two clamping jaws relatively open and clamp the screw, and then the second driving member 7 drives its output end to move, and drives the connecting member 8, the driving mechanism connected to the connecting member 8 and the clamping jaw assembly 2 to move forward along its output end to the designated position of the screw locking, and the screw is locked by the screw locking mechanism; at this time, the first driving member 3 drives the clamping jaw assembly 2 to open and loosen the screw again, and then the second driving member 7 drives the driving mechanism and the clamping jaw assembly 2 to reset.
