When an unqualified docking station part moves to the position of the first discharge box 504, the second slide table air cylinder 502 does not move. When the grasping mechanism releases the unqualified docking station part, the docking station part drops into the first discharge box 504. When the docking station part is detected as qualified, the second slide table air cylinder 502 drives the second fixed carrier 503 to move to the top side of the first discharge box 504 and carries the docking station part on the second fixed carrier 503 for another grasping mechanism to grasp and move the docking station part; A second discharge box 505 is fixedly installed on the bottom side inner wall of the installation chamber.

[0037] Working principle of this embodiment: When assembling the docking station, first, the electrical components in the product are externally connected to a power supply, an air pump, and a control unit. The docking station parts are placed on the fixed carrier three 604 close to the feeding port. The rotary cylinder 602 drives the feeding plate 603 to rotate, so that the fixed carrier three 604 equipped with the docking station parts moves to one side of the connecting frame 204. The connecting frame 204 and the grasping mechanism are driven to move by the mounting table 205 and the linear module 210, and the docking station parts are grasped by the pneumatic suction cup 209. The docking station parts are moved to the dispensing mechanism 4 for dispensing. After dispensing, the docking station parts are moved to the first group of detection mechanisms 3 for detection again. At this time, after one group of cylinders two 303 drive the fixed carrier one 302 to move to a suitable position, the grasping mechanism moves the docking station parts to the fixed carrier one 302. The cylinder two 303 drives the fixed carrier one 302 to reset. The sliding table cylinder one 305 drives the detection interface 306 to move and detect the docking station parts. After detection, the cylinder two 303 moves the fixed carrier one 302 and the docking station parts to a suitable position, and then the handling mechanism 2 moves to the discharge box one 504. The two groups of cylinders two 303 drive the fixed carrier one 302 to move alternately, so as to accelerate the detection speed. When there are unqualified docking station parts moving to the discharge box one 504, the sliding table cylinder two 502 does not operate. When the grasping mechanism releases the unqualified docking station parts, the docking station parts fall into the discharge box one 504. When the docking station parts are detected as qualified, the sliding table cylinder two 502 drives the fixed carrier two 503 to move to the top side of the discharge box one 504 and carry the docking station parts on the fixed carrier two 503 for another group of grasping mechanisms to grasp and move the docking station parts. The handling mechanism 2 transports the docking station parts to the other side of the discharge box one 504 for the next step of dispensing and assembly. After assembly, the docking station parts are moved to another group of detection mechanisms 3 by the handling mechanism 2 for detection again. When there are unqualified docking station parts moving to the discharge box two 505, the cylinder one 506 extends and drives the guide plate 507 to rotate to the outside of the discharge box two 505, so that the docking station parts fall into the discharge box two 505. When the docking station parts are detected as qualified, the cylinder one 506 does not operate, so that the docking station parts fall into the guide plate 507 and move into the discharge flow channel 7 to complete the discharging. This process is repeated to assemble the docking station parts until the production is completed.
