[0028] The robot body 1 receives the electrical signal from the external sensor, and the controller 2 controls the operating position of the buckle fixture. The left clamp 7 and the right clamp 14 work together to clamp the buckle 8. A spring 12 is provided between the left clamp 7 and the right clamp 14 to prevent the clamping force from being too large and damaging the buckle fixture during the clamping process. A limiting groove is provided at the bottom of the L-shaped limiting plate 15 to facilitate the top of the buckle 8 to be embedded in the limiting groove, and the left clamp 7 and the right clamp 14 cooperate to clamp the buckle 8 more stably, which is convenient for the subsequent assembly process.
[0029] The rear end of the L-shaped limiting plate 15 is fixedly connected to the front ends of the first half gear 16 and the second half gear 17 .
