The anti-rotation pressing plate 45 is made of plastic material, and the hardness thereof is far less than that of the product, so that the product will not be damaged when the anti-rotation pressing plate 45 is pressed. In this way, the product is not only precisely positioned and carried, but also the surface of the precision hole of the product is not damaged.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 In order to avoid the collision or scratch of the product caused by the height difference of the product, the pressing plate mounting plate 44 is connected with a guide shaft 51, the guide shaft 51 penetrates through the top mounting base plate 43 and is in sliding fit with the top mounting base plate 43, a height sensor 52 is mounted on the mounting support 1, an inductive sheet 53 is connected to one end of the guide shaft 51 close to the mounting support 1, and the height sensor 52 is used to detect the position of the inductive sheet 53, so as to know the position of the pressing plate mounting plate 44. When the product is grabbed, the anti-rotation pressing plate 45 is pushed out by the pressing plate driving element 46, an electromagnetic valve of the pressing plate driving element 46 is controlled to be in the middle leakage position, at this time, the anti-rotation pressing plate 45 stops at the lowermost position by gravity, the product height is slowly explored by the anti-rotation pressing plate 45 when the product is taken, when the anti-rotation pressing plate 45 touches the product, the anti-rotation pressing plate 45 moves upward relatively, so that the inductive sheet 53 moves upward, and then the height sensor 52 will have a signal, so that the height of the product can be known, the top clamping assembly 4 is controlled by the mechanical arm to grab the product at the appropriate height, so as to avoid the collision or scratch of the product caused by the height difference of the product.
