[0035] In this embodiment, in order to install and position the bolt, a conveying and positioning assembly 4 is designed. An outer frame 4-1 is arranged on one side of the mounting frame. A propulsion cylinder 4-2 is installed on the outer frame 4-1 for pushing the bolt forward. A bracket 4-3 is arranged on the outer frame 4-1 for placing the bolt.

The bolt is pressed by the bending wheel 3-7 and rotated upwards. Stop when reaching the top and bend and form at the same time. Then start the third cylinder 3-14 to push the bolt outwards through the inner block 3-16. The bolt passes through the discharging port 5-1 and is discharged outwards through the blanking hopper 5-3. Then continue the installation. When the lengths of different bolts are different, start the telescopic cylinder 3-11 to push the moving seat 3-10 to adjust the position of the pressing block 3-13. During the feeding process of the bolt, it will be supported in turn by the bracket 4-3, the conveying wheel 4-5, the pressing block 3-13 and the bending wheel 3-7 and will not fall downwards.
