[0022] Working principle: When using this utility model, the semi-finished product is manually placed in the feeding rack 41, and the shell is manually placed on the first support frame 32. The first positioning cylinder 36, in conjunction with the first positioning block 37, and the first positioning rod 35, in conjunction with the second positioning cylinder 38, are used to position it. The second suction cup 410 is activated to pick up the semi-finished product, and the lifting frame 42 controls the limiting frame 43 to release one semi-finished product. Then, the feeding cylinder 45 on the second mounting frame 44 extends, driving the gear 47 via the rack 46. The gear 47 drives the third mounting frame 49 via the rotating shaft 48. The mounting rack 49, driven by the second suction cup 410, deflects the adsorbed semi-finished product, placing it on the material rack 411. The second suction cup 410 no longer adsorbs the semi-finished product. The third positioning cylinder 414 is activated, cooperating with the second positioning rod 412 and the second positioning block 413 to position the semi-finished product at the picking position. The transmission belt 22 is activated, driving the first sliding seat 23 to slide along the first mounting plate 21 to the picking position. Immediately, the picking cylinder 24 is activated, driving the second sliding seat 25 to move down along the first sliding seat 23. The first suction cup 26 adsorbs the semi-finished product, and then the picking cylinder 24... Upon resetting, the transmission belt 22 moves the first sliding seat 23 to the feeding position to feed the semi-finished product onto the fourth support frame 317. The first forming cylinder 12 on the frame 11 is activated, driving the pressure block 13 to press down on the shell. Immediately, the second forming cylinder 31 and the fourth forming cylinder 311 retract. The second forming cylinder 31 drives the first support frame 32 to move down, and the fourth forming cylinder 311 drives the fourth support frame 317 to move down. The shell is pressed into the cavity formed by the first support frame 32 and the first push plate 310. Then, the third forming cylinder 39 and the fifth forming cylinder... 315 extends, and at the same time, the pneumatic gripper 313 clamps it. The third forming cylinder 39 pushes the first push plate 310, and the fifth forming cylinder 315 pushes the second push plate 316. The pneumatic gripper 313 drives the first mounting frame 314 to move closer to the second mounting plate 312. The fifth forming cylinder 315 on the first mounting frame 314 moves accordingly, causing the second push plate 316 to move as well, thus forming the product. Finally, the first forming cylinder 12 and the forming component 3 reset, and the product can be removed. The second support frame 33 and the third support frame 34 are used to support the casing.
