[0002] In the production process of products such as model airplanes and toys, screw assembly is a conventional method of connecting and assembling parts. Currently, electric screwdrivers used for screw assembly mainly use magnetic cross-head blades to attract iron screws. However, for production processes that require stainless steel screws to assemble parts, magnetic cross-head blades cannot attract stainless steel screws. Similarly, most automatic screw-locking machines that need to pick up and place screws from the outside also use the magnetic suction principle to attract screws. For stainless steel screws, currently, the main method of screw assembly is for the assembly worker to hold the screw in one hand and hold the screwdriver with the other hand to align the screw. To this end, we have proposed an expansion mechanism suitable for electric screwdrivers. Utility Model Content

The first clamping seat group 20 is clamped under the screwdriver body 10. A floating mechanism 50 is provided between the first clamping seat group 20 and the second clamping seat group 30. The floating mechanism 50 includes a fixed rod 51 and a spring member 52. The spring member 52 is sleeved on the fixed rod 51. A rod kit 53 is provided on the fixed rod 51. One end of the spring member 52 conflicts with the rod kit 53, and the other end of the spring member 52 conflicts with the second clamping seat group 30.

[0019] The screw-absorbing assembly 40 includes an intermediate connector 41 and a screw-absorbing member 42. The second clamping seat assembly 30 is clamped to one end of the intermediate connector 41, and the other end of the intermediate connector 41 is connected to the screw-absorbing member 42. The intermediate through-hole 411 of the intermediate connector 41 is connected to the central channel 421 of the screw-absorbing member 42. The screwdriver shaft 11 of the screwdriver body 10 passes through the intermediate through-hole 411 and is located within the central channel 421 of the screw-absorbing member 42. The floating mechanism 50 allows the screw-absorbing member 42 to float up and down relative to the screwdriver shaft 11, facilitating the screwdriver shaft 11 to securely attach the absorbed screw to the component. This utility model is adaptable to various electric screwdrivers, expanding the automatic stainless steel screw-absorbing function of the electric screwdriver and improving the efficiency of screw assembly.

[0020] Combined with attachment Figure 2 and attached Figure 4 As shown, the screw attachment 42 has a side channel 422 connected to the central channel 421. A gas nozzle 43 is connected to the side channel 422 for connection to a vacuum line. In use, the gas nozzle 43 is connected to one end of the vacuum line, while the other end of the line is connected to a vacuum generator or vacuum pump. This structural design allows for automatic attachment of stainless steel screws, eliminating the need for manual alignment with the threaded hole of the component during attachment.

[0021] Combined with attachment Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, the first clamp assembly 20 includes a first left clamping block 21 and a first right clamping block 22.
