The supporting plate 112 is located on one side of the positioning rod 114 and is fixedly connected with the positioning plate 111 to support the seat back 2. The ball head rod 113 is hinged to one side of the supporting plate 112 to fix the seat back 2.
[0032] The turnover assembly 12 comprises a turnover driving piece 1201, a worm gear 1202 and a worm 1203. The worm gear 1202 is fixed on the rotating shaft 1303 between the positioning plate 111 and the support frame 1302. The turnover driving piece 1201 is fixed on the support plate 1301 and is connected with the worm gear 1202 through the worm 1203 to drive the worm gear 1202 to rotate and drive the positioning assembly 11 to rotate.
[0033] During the assembly of the seat back 2, the operator carries the seat back 2 to the positioning assembly 11 and inserts the positioning rod 114 on the side surface of the positioning plate 111 into the seat back 2. At the same time, the supporting plate 112 supports the seat back 2. Then, the operator rotates the ball head rod 113 to make the ball head rod 113 contact and fix the seat back 2, so that the seat back 2 does not move during the assembly process.
