Through the coordinated actions of the cylinder fixture, the operation is optimized from a two-handed operation to a "one-handed" operation. Through the translation scheme of the telescopic moving cylinder 19, the ultra-thin translation in a narrow space is achieved, solving the automatic sliding of the female sliding sleeve of the connector in a narrow environment, and realizing the unlocking and locking of the female and male connectors of the joint. First, the 3D camera scans and locates the male connector of the quick connector, and the obtained position and angle of the connector offset are fed back to the plugging and unplugging robotic arm. The robotic arm carries the thin fixture to first pick up the female connector 9 of the quick connector from the fixed point and then inserts the female into the male according to the position of the male connector feedback by the 3D camera positioning to achieve the docking of the quick connector;

The fixed clamping cylinder 5 acts to make the fixed jaw A6 and the fixed jaw B7 clamp the fixed end of the female connector 9 of the quick connector. At this time, the telescopic moving cylinder 19 is in the extended state, and the telescopic moving cylinder 19 is at the initial position of the sliding sleeve of the female connector 9 of the quick connector. The telescopic moving cylinder 19 is ventilated and acts, and the moving jaw A8 and the moving jaw B11 clamp the female sliding sleeve. Then, the telescopic moving cylinder 19 retracts to move the entire moving jaw cylinder mounting plate 17, and the sliding sleeve of the female connector 9 of the quick connector is forced to move upward to achieve the unlocking of the joint structure;
[0031] During docking, the robotic arm carries the thin automatic plugging and unplugging jig to hold the unlocked female connector of the joint. According to the position and angle deviation feedback by the 3D camera, the female is inserted into the male. When the internal spring compresses and the female reaches the position, the telescopic moving cylinder 19 extends, and the telescopic moving cylinder 19 clamps the sliding sleeve of the female connector 9 of the quick connector and slides downward to lock the male groove, completing the quick docking of the joint.
