[0051] Combined with Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the X-axis moving module 10 includes a first driving source 101 and a first moving component connected to the acting end of the first driving source 101. The first driving source 101 drives the first moving component to move in the horizontal direction, that is, the X-axis direction. Specifically, the first moving component includes a first connecting block 102, a first sliding plate 103, a first fixing plate 104, at least one first guide rail 105 and at least one first slider 106.

[0055] In this embodiment, in combination with Figure 6 and Figure 9 , the Y-axis moving module 70 includes a sixth driving source 701 and a third moving component. The sixth driving source 701 has a movable part 702, and the movable part 702 is connected to the third moving component. The third moving component is used to install the first carrier 50 and the second carrier 60. Specifically, the third moving component includes a mounting plate 703, a support 704, a third guide rail 705, and a third slider 706.

The third guide rail 705 is arranged along the Y-axis direction, and the third slider 706 is slidably connected to the third guide rail 705. The total height of the support 704, the third slider 706, and the third guide rail 705 is the same as the height of the sixth driving source 701, so as to avoid inaccurate assembly positions of the O-ring due to different horizontal planes where the first carrier 50 and the second carrier 60 are located. Among them, the sixth driving source 701 can adopt a commercially available magnetic coupling rodless cylinder.
[0056] Furthermore, the Y-axis moving module 70 further includes a second limiting block 707, which is provided near the transplanting mechanism.

[0057] In this embodiment, as Figure 4As shown, the material taking mechanism 30 further includes a third driving source 301 connected to the acting part of the Z-axis moving module 20 and a first mounting seat 302 connected to the acting part of the third driving source 301. The clamping jaws 303 are arranged on the first mounting seat 302. The clamping jaws 303 have at least two clamping claws. Preferably, the clamping jaws 303 have four clamping claws, and the included angle formed between two adjacent clamping claws is 90°, so as to be evenly distributed around the O-ring, and the force can be applied more evenly, reducing local overstretching or deformation, helping to maintain the stability of the O-ring, and preventing deviation or distortion during the assembly process. Among them, the third driving source 301 can adopt a commercially available cylinder.
[0058] Further, a step portion (not marked in the figure) is provided at the end of the clamping claw close to the bearing mechanism, and the O-ring can be clamped on the step portion, which is convenient for the assembling mechanism to pick up or peel off the O-ring.
[0059] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, the material pushing mechanism 40 further includes a fourth driving source 401 connected to the acting part of the Z-axis moving module 20 and a second mounting seat 402 connected to the acting part of the fourth driving source 401. The material pushing plate 403 is arranged on the second mounting seat 402. Among them, the material pushing plate 403 includes a main body, and a channel for passing through the clamping jaws 303 is opened on the main body. It can be understood that the shape of the channel matches the outer shape of the clamping jaws 303, and the gap between the channel and the clamping jaws 303 cannot be too large, otherwise the O-ring cannot be peeled off from the clamping jaws 303 by the material pushing plate 403. The fourth driving source 401 can adopt a commercially available cylinder.
[0060] In this embodiment, as Figure 7 shown, the first carrier 50 includes a first base 501 and a positioning block 502 movably arranged in the first base 501. The first base 501 is provided with at least two first positioning members. The positioning block 502 is provided with at least two second positioning members. A distance is formed between the first positioning member and the second positioning member. The O-ring is placed between the first positioning member and the second positioning member. It should be noted that this distance can be designed according to the thickness of the O-ring.
[0061] Preferably, the first base 501 is provided with four first positioning members, and the positioning block 502 is provided with four second positioning members. The included angle formed between two adjacent first positioning members and between two adjacent second positioning members is 90°, so as to be evenly distributed around the O-ring, and the force can be applied more evenly, reducing local overstretching or deformation, and helping to maintain the stability of the O-ring.
[0062] Further, the first carrier 50 also includes a fifth driving source 504 and a base 505. The first base 501 is mounted on the base 505, and the base 505 is fixed to the mounting plate 703. The active end of the fifth driving source 504 passes through the base 505. The active end of the fifth driving source 504 is connected to the positioning block 502 through the connecting member 503, and the fifth driving source 504 drives the positioning block 502 to move along the Z-axis direction in the first base 501. When the clamping jaw 303 clamps the O-ring, the fifth driving source 504 drives the positioning block 502 to move downward along the negative direction of the Z-axis, so that the clamping jaw 303 can clamp the O-ring from the first carrier 50. Among them, the fifth driving source 504 can be a commercially available cylinder.
[0063] In this embodiment, if Figure 8 As shown, the second carrier 60 includes a second base 601 disposed on the Y-axis moving module 70 and a positioning column 602 disposed on the second base 601. The second base 601 is provided with a product placement area, which can be designed according to the shape of the product. The positioning column 602 is used to position the product.
[0064] The working principle of the utility model is as follows:

The Z-axis moving module 20 drives the material picking mechanism 30 and the material shifting mechanism 40 to move to the predetermined position along the negative direction of the Z axis, that is, downward. The third driving source 301 of the material picking mechanism 30 further drives the clamping jaw 303 to move along the negative direction of the Z axis, that is, downward. After moving to the predetermined position, the clamping jaw 303 is unfolded to open the O-ring, so that the O-ring is sleeved on the clamping jaw 303.
[0067] The Z-axis moving module 20 drives the material picking mechanism 30 and the material discharging mechanism 40 to move upward to a predetermined position, the X-axis moving module 10 moves to the predetermined position along the positive direction of the X-axis, i.e., to the right, the Y-axis moving module 70 drives the carrier to move to the predetermined position, the Z-axis moving module 20 drives the material picking mechanism 30 and the material discharging mechanism 40 to move downward to a predetermined position, the third driving source 301 of the material picking mechanism 30 further drives the clamping jaw 303 to move downward along the negative direction of the Z-axis, to a predetermined position where the product is covered with an O-ring, the fourth driving source 401 of the material discharging mechanism 40 drives the material discharging plate 403 to move downward along the negative direction of the Z-axis, and the O-ring is peeled off the clamping jaw 303 by using the material discharging plate 403 and covered on the product carried in the second carrier 60.
[0068] After the O-ring is assembled, the fourth drive source 401, the third drive source 301, the Z-axis movement module 20, the gripper 303, the X-axis movement module 10, and the Y-axis movement module 70 are reset respectively, waiting for the start of the next material taking and assembly cycle.
