[0026] Specifically, in this embodiment, the scheme mainly includes a workbench 1 and an assembly mechanism disposed above the workbench 1; the first conveyor belt 2 is responsible for conveying the lock body of the lock buckle along the length direction of the workbench 1 to the assembly area;
[0027] The second conveyor belt 3 conveys the locking tongue along the width direction of the workbench 1 to the assembly area, and the first conveyor belt 2 is connected to the side of the second conveyor belt 3 so that the materials can meet and be assembled here;
[0028] The assembly seat 4 is located at the intersection of the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3, providing an installation basis for the receiving plate 5 and other assembly components. The motor of the screw slide 8 drives its moving end to drive the clamp 10 to slide horizontally, so that the clamp 10 can be accurately moved to the assembly position of the lock body and the lock tongue. The first motor 6 drives the receiving plate 5 to rotate to achieve the angle adjustment between the clamp 10 and the lock body, ensuring that the lock tongue can be accurately assembled into the lock body. The extension and retraction of the electric push rod 9 realizes the height adjustment of the clamp 10, accurately clamps the lock tongue and assembles it into the lock body.
