[0032] Example 2:
[0033] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5 The technical solution shown in the figure, the present invention provides the following technical solution: In order to solve the problem that the terminal assembly effect may be poor and affect the quality of the connector, an identification mechanism is disclosed:
[0034] The identification mechanism includes a visual sensor 107, and the visual sensor 107 is installed on the upper surface of the external block 106. Two guide grooves 108 are provided on the left side of the external block 106. A guide block 109 is symmetrically passed through the guide groove 108 for sliding. A threaded rod 110 is threadedly passed through the guide block 109. The threaded rod 110 rotates between the guide groove 108 and the temporal part of the external block 106. An extrusion block 111 is fixed to the end of the guide block 109. An extrusion groove 112 is symmetrically provided on the side of the workbench 1. Before the assembly equipment is used, moving the external block 106 can drive the visual sensor 107 and the extrusion block 111 to move. The extrusion block 111 can be inserted when it moves to the side of the extrusion groove 112.
