[0022] See also Figures 1 to 4 The present invention shows a stacked flow channel micro-assembly mechanism 100, which overlaps the assembly space so that different processes can be carried out in a stacked manner to achieve a reduction in space and area. The stacked flow channel micro-assembly mechanism 100 includes a lower flow channel 101 extending in the longitudinal direction and an upper flow channel 102 located above the lower flow channel 101. The upper flow channel 102 is provided with an assembly station, a test station 41 and a sorting station 51 arranged from front to back in the longitudinal direction. In this embodiment, the stacked flow channel micro-assembly mechanism 100 also includes a pre-installation mechanism 10 located at the longitudinal front end of the lower flow channel 101, a part translation mechanism 20, an installation mechanism 30 corresponding to the assembly station, a test mechanism 40 corresponding to the test station 41, a sorting mechanism 50 corresponding to the sorting station 51, and a carrier reset mechanism 60.

[0023] The pre-installation mechanism 10 includes a pre-installation platform 11, a pre-installation translation cylinder 12 and a pre-installation lifting cylinder 13 connected to the bottom of the pre-installation platform 11, and an assembly tool 201 arranged on the pre-installation platform 11, wherein the assembly tool 201 is used to carry the semi-finished connector assembly 200. The pre-installation translation cylinder 12 drives the pre-installation platform 11 to translate horizontally, so that the pre-installation platform 11 drives the assembly tool 201 with the semi-finished connector assembly 200 to move to the longitudinal front end of the lower layer flow channel 101, or drives the assembly tool 201 without the connector assembly 200 to move away from the longitudinal front end of the lower layer flow channel 101. The pre-installation lifting cylinder 13 drives the pre-installation platform 11 to move vertically, so that the pre-installation platform 11 switches between the longitudinal front end of the lower layer flow channel 101 and the longitudinal front end of the upper layer flow channel 102.

[0024] The part translation mechanism 20 is provided with a translation component 21 located at the longitudinal front end of the upper flow channel 102 and a translation cylinder 22 connected to the translation component 21; when the pre-installation platform 11 drives the assembly tool 201 to move to the longitudinal front end of the upper flow channel 102, the translation component 21 is located at the longitudinal front end of the pre-installation platform 11, and the translation cylinder 22 drives the translation component 21 to push the assembly tool 201 backward in the longitudinal direction until the assembly tool 201 drives the semi-finished connector component 200 to move to the assembly station. The installation mechanism 30 is used to complete the assembly of the connector component 200 on the assembly tool 201 located at the assembly station to form a finished connector component 200.

When the assembled vehicle 201 moves to the sorting station 51, the carrier lifting platform 61 is located at the sorting station 51 to carry the assembled vehicle 201. After the connector component 200 on the sorting station 51 is grabbed, the carrier lifting cylinder 62 drives the carrier lifting platform 61 to drive the assembled vehicle 201 without the connector component 200 to descend to the longitudinal rear end of the lower flow channel 101, and when the assembled vehicle 201 is located at the longitudinal rear end of the lower flow channel 101, the carrier shifting mechanism 63 pushes the assembled vehicle 201 to move forward in the longitudinal direction and place it on the pre-installation platform 11.

When the assembly tool 201 is located at the assembly station, the installation mechanism 30 completes the assembly of the connector component 200 on the assembly tool 201. When the assembly tool 201 is located at the test station 41, the image testing device 42 of the testing mechanism 40 detects whether the assembly state of the corresponding connector component 200 is qualified. When the assembly tool 201 is located at the sorting station 51, the grasping mechanism 52 of the sorting mechanism 50 picks up and sorts the connector component 200 on the assembly tool 201 according to the detection result of the image testing device 42.

The upper flow channel 102 and the lower flow channel 101 are stacked and assembled without interfering with each other, effectively utilizing the height space and saving floor space.
