An adjusting arm 1033 is installed on the output end of the lifting cylinder 1032. An adjusting claw 1034 is installed on the adjusting arm 1033.

[0029] The bottom shell conveying assembly 2 includes two side frames 201, with a conveying base 202 positioned between them. A conveyor belt 203 is mounted above the conveyor base 202, and placement platforms 204 are equidistantly mounted on the top of the conveyor belt 203. The placement platforms 204 are used to place the bottom shell component 401. Two position sensors 205 are mounted on one of the side frames 201 for positioning the placement platform 204. The conveyor belt 203 is movably mounted on the conveyor base 202, and the placement platforms 204 are equidistantly mounted on the top of the conveyor belt 203. The bottom shell component 401 is fixedly placed on the placement platform 204, facilitating material feeding of the bottom shell component 401. Under the action of the two position sensors 205, when the placement platform 204 moves to the assembly position, the conveyor belt 203 stops moving, thereby facilitating the corresponding assembly of the bottom shell component 401 and the top cover component 402 and improving assembly accuracy.

[0030] The top cover conveying assembly 3 includes a gantry frame 301, a movable module 302 mounted on the gantry frame 301, a movable seat 303 slidably mounted on the movable module 302, a conveyor belt 203 disposed inside the gantry frame 301 and perpendicular to the movable module 302, a top cover picking unit 304 mounted on the movable seat 303, and a top cover gripping unit 305 mounted on the movable seat 303. The top cover picking unit 304 includes a first [unclear - possibly a component or part] fixedly mounted on the movable seat 303. Mounting platform 3041, on which a gripping arm 3042 is slidably mounted, and a gripping claw 3043 is mounted at the bottom end of the gripping arm 3042. A first longitudinal movement drive 3044 is mounted on the first mounting platform 3041, which is used to pull the gripping arm 3042 to lift and lower. The top cover gripping unit 305 includes a second mounting platform 3051 fixedly mounted on the movable base 303, on which a second longitudinal movement drive 3043 is fixedly mounted. 052, A clamping claw 3053 is installed on the output end of the second longitudinal drive component 3052. A moving base 303 is slidably installed on the moving module 302. The moving base 303 is provided with a top cover picking unit 304 and a top cover gripping unit 305. The top cover picking unit 304 is used to pick up the top cover component 402, while the top cover gripping unit 305 is used to grip the top cover component 402 and place it above the placement platform 204, so that the bottom shell component 401 and the top cover component 402 are assembled, improving the efficiency of the meter. The automation level of the needle cover 4 installation improves assembly efficiency. After the top cover material picking unit 304 picks up the top cover part 402, it puts the top cover part 402 into the limiting groove 1023. The state of the top cover part 402 is adjusted by the adjusting claw 1034 so that the top cover part 402 is in a state of complete fit with the limiting groove 1023. When the clamping claw 3053 clamps and assembles the top cover part 402, the top cover part 402 can be assembled with the bottom shell part 401, improving assembly accuracy.

[0031] Working principle: During assembly, the moving module 302 drives the moving base 303 to move, so that the gripper 3043 moves to the position of storing the top cover 402. The first longitudinal drive 3044 moves downward until the gripper 3043 clamps one of the top cover 402. Then the first longitudinal drive 3044 pulls the gripper arm 3042 upward. Then the moving base 303 moves the gripper 3043 to above the limiting platform 1022. Then the first longitudinal drive 3044 drives the gripper 3043 to move downward, putting the clamped top cover 402 into the limiting groove 1023.

[0032] Then, the gripper 3043 moves upward, activating the lifting cylinder 1032, causing the adjusting arm 1033 to rotate, and the adjusting claw 1034 to move above the limiting groove 1023. A camera is installed on the adjusting arm 1033 to observe the state of the top cover 402. When the position of the top cover 402 needs to be adjusted, the lifting cylinder 1032 drives the adjusting claw 1034 to move downward, clamping the top cover 402 and adjusting it to the state corresponding to the limiting groove 1023, so that the top cover 402 is in the state corresponding to the limiting groove 1023.

[0033] Then, the moving module 302 drives the moving seat 303 to move until the clamping claw 3053 moves above the limiting groove 1023. The second longitudinal moving drive 3052 drives the clamping claw 3053 to move downward until the clamping claw 3053 clamps the top cover 402. After the second longitudinal moving drive 3052 drives the clamping claw 3053 to move upward, the moving module 302 moves the top cover 402 above the conveyor belt 203.

[0034] The conveyor belt 203 moves continuously on the conveyor base 202. A placement platform 204 is provided at the top of the conveyor belt 203. The bottom shell 401 is fixedly placed on the placement platform 204. Through two position sensors 205, when the placement platform 204 moves to the assembly position, the conveyor belt 203 stops moving. After the clamping claw 3053 clamps the top cover 402 and moves it above the placement platform 204, the second longitudinal drive 3052 drives the clamping claw 3053 to move downward, so that the top cover 402 is installed on the top of the bottom shell 401. During installation, since the bottom shell 401 is tightly provided with positioning pins 403 and the top cover 402 is tightly provided with positioning holes 404, when the bottom shell 401 and the top cover 402 are installed, each positioning pin 403 needs to be inserted into the corresponding positioning hole 404 to improve the assembly accuracy.
