The support platform 10 is located below the mounting mechanism 1 and the mounting mechanism 2. A moving track 9 is provided on the front side of the support platform 10, and an electrical control box 8 is provided on the outer side of the moving track 9. Both the electrical control box 8 and the moving track 9 are located inside the housing 1.

[0019] In this embodiment, a feeding mechanism, a first mounting mechanism, and a second mounting mechanism are respectively provided in the outer casing 1. With the cooperation of the three, the workpiece placed on the support platform 10 and the fixture 101 can be mounted. The workpiece is moved left and right by the moving track 9. The feeding mechanism feeds the workpiece, and the first mounting mechanism and the second mounting mechanism complete the two mounting operations of the workpiece.

[0020] Specifically, an alarm 12 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer casing 1, several cooling fans 11 are installed inside both sides of the upper end of the outer casing 1, and an instrument panel 13 is fixedly installed on the upper front surface of the outer casing 1.

[0021] Specifically, the feeding mechanism includes a feed wheel 21 that is rotatably mounted on the front surface of the fixed support plate 2. A foil separator 22 is also mounted on the front surface of the fixed support plate 2. The foil separator 22 is located below the feed wheel 21. An air nozzle 23 is fixedly mounted on the front side of the fixed support plate 2.

[0022] In this embodiment, a feeding mechanism is provided inside the outer casing 1. The feeding wheel 21 in the feeding mechanism is used to supply the rolled material. The foil separator 22 provided below the feeding wheel 21 can separate the foil and the adhesive backing, so that the bonding process can be completed. The air nozzle 23 works in conjunction with the foil separator 22 to separate the foil and the adhesive backing by blowing air, thereby completing the feeding work.

[0023] Specifically, the mounting mechanism includes a cylinder 3 fixedly installed on the front side of the mounting plate 31. The telescopic end of the cylinder 3 is fixedly connected to a screen printing film 32, and a roller 33 is provided on the lower front end of the screen printing film 32.

[0024] In this embodiment, by setting up a mounting mechanism 1 inside the outer shell 1, the screen printing film 32 and roller 33 set below the mounting plate 31 can be driven to adjust their positions in the front, back and left and right directions with the cooperation of cylinder 3 and cylinder 4. The screen printing film 32 is used to screen print on the foil, while the roller 33 is used to smooth the first patch to be mounted.

[0025] Specifically, the mounting mechanism 2 includes a cylinder 3 5 fixedly mounted on the upper part of the front surface of the mounting plate 2 52. An auxiliary bracket 51 is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the cylinder 3 5. The auxiliary bracket 51 is fixedly mounted on the front end of the mounting plate 2 52. A screen printing film 2 55 is provided below the auxiliary bracket 51. A front roller 54 and a rear roller 57 are respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the lower end of the screen printing film 2 55. A screen printing clip 56 is installed between the front roller 54 and the rear roller 57. A shock-absorbing layer 53 is provided between the auxiliary bracket 51 and the screen printing film 2 55. The shock-absorbing layer 53 contains a damper and several springs.

[0026] In this embodiment, the second mounting mechanism, through the activation of cylinders 5 and 6, drives the second screen printing film 55 located below the auxiliary support 51 to move back and forth and left and right, thereby performing the second mounting operation. With the cooperation of the screen printing film 55 and the screen printing clamp 56, the screen printing mesh is supported and tightened while the film is being screen printed. The front roller 54 and the rear roller 57 work together to smooth the foil being mounted, thereby making the foil adhere tightly to the workpiece. The shock-absorbing layer 53 set between the auxiliary support 51 and the second screen printing film 55 can reduce the impact force during downward pressure, preventing the mounting operation from being affected.

[0027] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it.
