[0027] Specifically, the positioning component 4 includes a lifting cylinder 41 and a positioning groove. The positioning groove 51 is arranged at the front end of the tray 5, and the lifting cylinder 41 is arranged at the front end of the moving frame 2. The lifting cylinder 41 cooperates with the positioning groove 51 to position the tray 5. Further, there are two lifting cylinders 41, which are evenly arranged at the front end of the moving frame 2 to ensure that the moving frame 2 can be accurately positioned in the front-rear direction.

The output rod of the lifting cylinder 41 passes through the positioning hole 211 and contacts with the positioning groove 51. On the one hand, the tray can be positioned to prevent the tray from falling off the mobile frame and ensure the stability of the tray installation; on the other hand, it helps to keep the terminals in the tray in a fixed position, and when the downstream grabbing unit grabs the terminals, the consistency of terminal transfer can be ensured.

[0029] Furthermore, two clamping cylinders 22 are provided at the rear end of the mobile frame 2, and the clamping cylinders 22 are in abutment with the material tray 5 to abut the material tray 5.
