[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automation equipment technology, and in particular to a loading device and a detection conveyor line. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, material loading devices typically have two parallel tray loading racks: one for storing empty trays and the other for storing trays containing materials. A transfer device is located between the tops of the two tray loading racks to transfer trays from one rack to the other. However, the large space occupied by the two tray loading racks results in a large overall footprint for the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a loading device and a detection conveyor line, which reduces the space occupied by the equipment.

[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a loading device, the loading device comprising:

[0005] Machine tool;

[0006] The storage mechanism includes a first storage rack and a second storage rack spaced apart along a first direction on the machine.

[0008] Wherein, the support seat is used to stack and load material trays in the first storage rack, the second lifting module is used to drive the support seat to move along the first direction to lift the material trays on the support seat to the clearance space, and the first lifting module is used to drive the second lifting module to move along the first direction to lift the material trays on the support seat to the second storage rack.

[0009] A transfer mechanism, at least partially disposed in the clearance space, is capable of transporting materials within the clearance space to pick up and place materials from the tray.

[0010] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the transfer mechanism includes a first power module, a second power module, and a transfer robot. The first power module is disposed on the machine platform and located on the side of the first lifting module away from the first storage rack along the first direction. The second power module is disposed on the power unit of the first power module, and the transfer robot is disposed on the power unit of the second power module.

[0015] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the storage mechanism further includes a conveying component disposed on the machine base, the output end of the conveying component being located at the bottom of the first storage rack, for conveying the material tray to the first storage rack.

[0016] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a detection conveyor line, comprising:

[0017] A feeding device, a testing device, and a discharging device are arranged sequentially along the second direction. The feeding device includes a first loading device, and the discharging device includes a second device. Both the first loading device and the second loading device include the loading device described above. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0018] The testing equipment includes a loading and transporting module, a testing device, and a unloading and transporting module. The loading and transporting module is used to transport the material from the first loading device to the testing device. The testing device is used to test the material. The unloading and transporting module is used to transport the material that has been tested by the testing device to the second loading device.

[0019] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the feeding device further includes;

[0020] A feeding and conveying module is provided on the machine base for receiving materials transmitted from the transfer mechanism of the first loading device;

[0021] A cleaning component, disposed on the machine, is used to provide a cleaning airflow to the feeding and conveying module.

[0022] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the unloading device further includes an unloading transfer fixture disposed on the machine base, the unloading and conveying module is used to transport the inspected parts to the unloading transfer fixture, and the transfer mechanism of the second loading device is used to transport the parts from the unloading transfer fixture to the material tray.

[0023] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the unloading device further includes unloading matching fixtures disposed on the machine base. At least three unloading matching fixtures are provided for temporarily storing materials. The unloading and conveying module replaces qualified or unqualified materials through the unloading matching fixtures so as to transport only qualified or unqualified materials to the second loading device.

[0024] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the detection device includes:

[0025] A detection and conveying module is installed on the machine base to receive the materials conveyed by the loading and conveying module and transport them to the unloading equipment along the second direction;

[0026] The testing mechanism includes a mounting frame, a testing module, a first drive module, and a second drive module. The mounting frame is disposed on the machine base, the first drive module is disposed on the mounting frame, the second drive module is disposed on the drive section of the first drive module, and the testing module is disposed on the drive section of the second drive module and located above the testing and conveying module. The first drive module drives the second drive module to move along a third direction, and the second drive module drives the testing module to move along a first direction. The first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0027] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the detection device further includes a carrier assembly disposed on the detection conveying module. The carrier assembly includes a mounting base, a positioning carrier, a third drive module, and a fourth drive module. The mounting base is disposed on the drive unit of the detection conveying module, and the positioning carrier is disposed on the mounting base. The third drive unit is used to drive the positioning carrier to rotate about a horizontal axis parallel to the third direction, and the fourth drive module is used to drive the positioning carrier to rotate about a vertical axis parallel to the first direction.

[0028] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, the embodiments of this application have the following advantages: the second storage rack is located directly above the first storage rack, and a clearance space is reserved between the two. The transfer mechanism can grab the material in the tray or place the transported material in the tray within the clearance space. The second storage rack is located directly above the first storage rack, and the first and second storage racks are compactly assembled on the machine platform, thereby saving the space occupied by the machine platform and thus reducing the overall design of the equipment.

[0029] It should be noted that when the transfer mechanism moves the material in the clearance space, the tray on the support seat moves upward to the clearance space under the power of the second lifting module. Correspondingly, neither the body of the first lifting module nor the second lifting module moves upward. Therefore, the upper ends of the first lifting module and the second lifting module do not protrude out of the clearance space, thus effectively avoiding interference of the lifting mechanism with the movement of the transfer mechanism, especially avoiding interference of the second lifting module with the movement of the transfer mechanism. At the same time, the lifting mechanism can also lift the tray from the clearance space to the second storage rack. Attached Figure Description

[0049] The first direction is the axial direction of the Z-axis, i.e., the vertical direction; the second direction is the axial direction of the X-axis; and the third direction is the axial direction of the Y-axis. Accordingly, the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other. For ease of explanation, specific embodiments are described using the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis to illustrate the solution of this application.

[0050] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This invention provides a loading device 500, which can be applied to a feeding device 200, a discharging device 400, or other devices. This application describes the application to the feeding device 200 and the discharging device 400 as examples, but it is not limited to the feeding device 200 and the discharging device 400.

[0051] Specifically, the loading device 500 includes a machine base 100, a storage mechanism 510, a lifting mechanism 520, and a transfer mechanism 530. The storage mechanism 510 includes a first storage rack 511 and a second storage rack 512 disposed on the machine base 100. The first storage rack 511 and the second storage rack 512 are arranged vertically at intervals and are used to store material trays 600. The second storage rack 512 is located directly above the first storage rack 511, and a clearance space 513 is reserved between them. The lifting mechanism 520 includes a first lifting module 521, a second lifting module 522, and a support seat 523. The first lifting module 521 is disposed on the machine base 100 and is vertically located on one side of the first storage rack 511. The second lifting module 522 is vertically disposed on one side of the first lifting module 521 and is connected to the drive unit of the first lifting module 521. The support seat 523 is connected to the drive unit of the second lifting module 522. The support seat 523 is used to move in the storage mechanism 510 along a first direction for stacking loading trays 600. The carrier 523 is used to stack and load trays 600 in the first storage rack 511. The second lifting module 522 is used to drive the carrier to move along a first direction to lift the trays 600 on the carrier 523 to the clearance space 513. The first lifting module 521 is used to drive the second lifting module 522 to move along the first direction to lift the trays 600 on the carrier 523 to the second storage rack 512. The transfer mechanism 530 is at least partially disposed in the clearance space 513 to transport materials within the clearance space 513 to pick up and place materials from the trays 600.

[0052] In this configuration, if the loading device 500 is applied to the feeding device 200, the first storage rack 511 is used to store the tray 600 containing materials. When the tray 600 enters the clearance space 513, the transfer mechanism 530 grabs the stored materials from the tray 600 and outputs them outward. Thus, the second storage rack 512 is used to store the empty tray 600. If the loading device 500 is applied to the unloading device 400, the first storage rack 511 is used to store the empty tray 600. When the tray 600 enters the clearance space 513, the transfer mechanism 530 transports the materials into the tray 600. Thus, the second storage rack 512 is used to store the tray 600 containing materials. This will be explained in detail later.

[0053] Specifically, the stacked trays 600 are stored in the first storage rack 511 and located on the support base 523. The second lifting module 522 drives the support base 523 to move upward, and the support base 523 pushes the parts in the first storage rack 511 upward. When the topmost tray 600 on the support base 523 moves to the top of the first storage rack 511, or to the bottom of the clearance space 513, the transfer mechanism 530 grabs a part from the tray 600 or places a transported part into the tray 600. After the tray 600 is filled with parts or emptied, the first lifting module 521 pushes the second lifting module 522 upward, and the second lifting module 522 drives the stacked trays 600 on it to move upward through the support base 523. When the topmost tray 600 on the support 523 moves to the bottom of the second storage cavity, it is stored in the second storage rack 512, and the next tray 600 on the support 523 becomes the topmost tray 600. Then, the first lifting module 521 drives the second lifting module 522 to move downward. The second lifting module 522 moves the material downward through the support 523. At this time, the topmost tray 600 on the support 523 moves down to the top of the first storage rack 511, that is, the bottom of the clearance space 513. The transfer mechanism 530 grabs the material from the tray 600 or places the transported material into the tray 600. After the tray 600 is filled with material or emptied, the above actions are repeated until the next batch of trays 600 is replaced in the first storage rack 511.

[0054] Understandably, the second storage rack 512 is positioned directly above the first storage rack 511, with a clearance space 513 reserved between them. The transfer mechanism 530 can grab materials from the tray 600 or place transported materials into the tray 600 within the clearance space 513. The second storage rack 512 is positioned directly above the first storage rack 511, and the first storage rack 511 and the second storage rack 512 are compactly assembled on the machine base 100, thereby saving space occupied by the machine base 100 and reducing the overall design size of the equipment.

[0055] It should be noted that when the transfer mechanism 530 moves the material in the clearance space 513, the material tray 600 on the support seat 523 moves upward to the clearance space 513 under the power of the second lifting module 522. Correspondingly, the bodies of the first lifting module 521 and the second lifting module 522 do not move upward. Therefore, the upper ends of the first lifting module 521 and the second lifting module 522 do not protrude out of the clearance space 513, thereby effectively preventing the lifting mechanism 520 from interfering with the movement of the transfer mechanism 530, especially preventing the second lifting module 522 from interfering with the movement of the transfer mechanism 530. The lifting mechanism 520 can also lift the material tray 600 from the clearance space 513 to the second storage rack 512.

[0056] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The transfer mechanism 530 includes a first power module 531, a second power module 532, and a transfer robot 533. The first power module 531 is disposed on the machine base 100 and located on the side of the first lifting module 521 away from the first storage rack 511 along the Z-axis. The second power module 532 is disposed on the power unit of the first power module 531, and the transfer robot 533 is disposed on the power unit of the second power module 532. The first power module 531 and the second power module 532 are used to drive the transfer robot 533 to move along the X-axis and Y-axis, so that the transfer robot 533 moves horizontally on the material tray 600 in the clearance space 513 to grab the material in the material tray 600. Specifically, the machine tool 100 is provided with a guide seat 534, which extends along the Y-axis. Both ends of the guide seat 534 are slidably mounted on the machine tool 100 along the X-axis. A first power module 531 is mounted on the machine tool 100 to drive the guide seat 534 to slide along the X-axis. The base of the transfer robot 533 is slidably mounted on the guide seat 534 along the Z-axis. A second power module 532 is mounted on the guide seat 534 to drive the transfer robot 533 to move up and down along the Z-axis. In a specific application, the first power module 531 is used to drive the transfer robot 533 to move along the X-axis, and the second power module 532 is used to drive the transfer robot 533 to move along the Y-axis. Thus, the first power module 531 and the second power module 532 cooperate to enable the transfer robot 533 to move in a plane on the material tray 600 in the clearance space 513, thereby being able to grab materials at various positions on the material tray 600 or place materials at various positions on the material tray 600.

[0057] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5The second storage rack 512 includes a base plate 5121, a surrounding component 5124, and a support component 5125. Specifically, a support column is vertically fixed on the machine base 100, and the base plate 5121 is located above the machine base 100 and connected to the support column, thereby forming a clearance space 513 between the bottom of the base plate 5121 and the top of the first storage rack 511. The base plate 5121 has an inlet 5122 and a clearance opening 5123 that communicate with the clearance space 513. The clearance opening 5123 is used for the passage of the second lifting module 522, and the inlet 5122 is used for the passage of the feeding tray 600. The surrounding component 5124 includes multiple positioning rods, which are set on the base plate 5121 and sequentially surround the outer periphery of the inlet 5122. The support assembly 5125 includes a drive member 5126 and a support member 5127 connected together. The drive member 5126 is disposed on the base plate 5121 and is horizontally oriented towards the inlet 5122. The support member 5127 is slidably disposed on the base plate 5121 and positioned on one side of the inlet 5122. The drive part of the drive member 5126 is connected to the support member 5127 and is used to drive the support member 5127 to move towards the inlet 5122 to support the bottom tray 600 of the second storage rack 512.

[0058] Specifically, the first lifting module 521 drives the second lifting module 522 to move upward. The second lifting module 522 extends into the second storage rack 512 through the clearance port 5123. The support seat 523 moves upward synchronously with the second lifting module 522, thereby lifting the topmost tray 600 on the support seat 523 to the bottom of the second storage rack 512. At the same time, the driving member 5126 drives the support member 5127 to retract, that is, the support member 5127 disengages from the flange of the tray 600. When the topmost tray 600 on the support seat 523 moves to the height of the support member 5127, the driving member 5126 drives the support member 5127 to extend, thereby supporting the flange of the tray 600 and keeping the tray 600 stored inside the second storage rack 512.

[0059] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3The storage mechanism 510 also includes a conveying assembly 514, which has two spaced-apart conveying modules 5141. These two conveying modules 5141 can be conveyor belts and are positioned along the Y-axis at the bottom of the inner side of the machine base 100. The input ends of the two conveying modules 5141 are located on one side of the machine base 100, and the output ends are located at the bottom of the first storage rack 511. A support base 523 is located between the output ends of the two conveying modules 5141. After all the trays 600 in the first storage rack 511 have been transferred to the second storage rack 512, the operator can place the stacked trays 600 on the input ends of the two conveying modules 5141. The two conveying modules 5141 then convey the stacked trays 600 to the bottom of the first storage rack 511 in preparation for the next lifting of the trays 600.

[0060] This application discloses a testing conveyor line, referring to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 The inspection conveyor line includes a machine base 100, a feeding device 200, a discharging device 400, and an inspection device, which are arranged sequentially along the X-axis. The feeding device 200 includes the aforementioned loading device 500, which is a first loading device 500 mounted on the machine base 100. The discharging device 400 also includes the aforementioned loading device 500, which is a second loading device 500 mounted on the machine base 100. There are two second loading devices 500, which share a transfer mechanism 530. The transfer mechanism 530 is used to transport materials between the two second loading devices, loading qualified and unqualified materials into the two second loading devices 500 respectively. The testing equipment is located between the feeding equipment 200 and the unloading equipment 400. The testing equipment includes a feeding and handling module 230, a testing device 300, and an unloading and handling module 410. The feeding and handling module 230 is used to transport the parts from the feeding equipment 200 to the testing device 300. The testing device 300 is used to test the parts fed from the feeding equipment 200. The unloading and handling module 410 is used to transport the parts that have been tested by the testing device 300 to the unloading equipment 400.

[0061] In the first loading device 500, a first storage rack 511 stores a tray 600 containing materials. When the tray 600 enters the clearance space 513, a transfer mechanism 530 grabs the stored materials from the tray 600 and outputs them outward. Therefore, a second storage rack 512 stores an empty tray 600. In the second loading device 500, the first storage rack 511 stores an empty tray 600. When the tray 600 enters the clearance space 513, the transfer mechanism 530 transports the materials into the tray 600. Therefore, a second storage rack 512 stores a tray 600 containing materials. For ease of description, the transfer mechanism 530 in the first loading device 500 is defined as the first transfer mechanism 530, and the transfer mechanism 530 in the second loading device 500 is defined as the second transfer mechanism 530.

[0062] For detailed instructions, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the feeding device 200, the first storage rack 511 is used to store the tray 600 containing materials. After the tray 600 enters the clearance space 513, the first transfer mechanism 530 grabs the stored materials from the tray 600 and conveys them along the X-axis toward the detection device. After the materials in the tray 600 are grabbed, the empty tray 600 moves to the bottom of the second storage rack 512 under the drive of the first lifting module 521 and is stored in the second storage rack 512. The other trays 600 stacked on the loading seat move downwards, thereby continuously supplying materials to the first transfer mechanism 530. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 9 In the testing equipment, after the first transfer mechanism 530 transmits the material, the testing equipment receives the transmitted material, tests each material individually, and then conveys it along the X-axis towards the unloading equipment 400. (Refer to...) Figures 6 to 8 In the unloading device 400, the first storage rack 511 is used to store empty material trays 600. When the empty material tray 600 enters the clearance space 513, the second transfer mechanism 530 receives the parts transmitted from the testing device and places them into the empty material tray 600. When the empty material tray 600 is full of parts, the tray 600 moves to the bottom of the second storage rack 512 under the drive of the first lifting module 521 and is stored in the second storage rack 512. Other empty material trays 600 stacked on the loading seat move downwards, so that the second transfer mechanism 530 can place parts. The unloading device 400 is provided with two second loading devices 500 and shares one second transfer mechanism 530. The second transfer mechanism can place qualified parts into the empty material tray 600 in one of the second loading devices 500 and unqualified parts into the empty material tray 600 in the other second loading device 500 according to the testing results of the testing device.

[0063] To ensure the accuracy of the detection by the detection device 300, in some embodiments, reference is made to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The feeding equipment 200 also includes a feeding conveying module 210 and a cleaning component 220. The feeding conveying module 210 is mounted on the machine base 100 along the X-axis, with its input end positioned near the first transfer mechanism 530. The feeding conveying module 230 is mounted on the machine base 100 and positioned near the output end of the feeding conveying module 210. The cleaning component 220 is mounted on the machine base 100 and located on the conveying path of the feeding conveying module 210. Specifically, after the first transfer mechanism 530 picks up a material from the tray 600, it transfers the material to the input end of the feeding conveying module 210 and places it on the carrier of the feeding conveying module 210. After receiving the material, the feeding conveying module 210 conveys it along the X-axis towards the detection device 300. The feeding and conveying module 210 transfers the parts to the feeding and handling module 230. The feeding and handling module 230 picks up the parts from the carrier of the feeding and conveying module 210 and transfers them into the inspection device 300. The cleaning component 220 provides a cleaning airflow to the feeding and conveying module 210. Therefore, during the part transfer process, the cleaning component 220 blows away dust and other debris from the parts, allowing the inspection device 300 to accurately inspect them.

[0064] To ensure that the feeding device 400 stably receives the parts transmitted from the detection device 300, in some embodiments, reference is made to... Figures 6 to 8 The unloading equipment 400 also includes an unloading and conveying module 410 and an unloading transfer fixture 420. Both the unloading and conveying module 410 and the unloading transfer fixture 420 are mounted on the machine base 100 and positioned close to the testing device 300. The unloading and conveying module 410 is used to transport the tested parts from the testing device 300 and transfer them to the unloading transfer fixture 420. The second transfer mechanism 530 of the second loading device 500 grabs the parts from the unloading transfer fixture 420 and places them into the corresponding empty tray 600 according to whether the parts are qualified.

[0065] Furthermore, the unloading equipment 400 also includes an unloading matching fixture 430, which is mounted on the machine base 100 and located to one side of the unloading transfer fixture 420. The unloading matching fixture 430 is used for temporary storage of parts, and the unloading and handling module 410 uses the unloading matching fixture 430 to replace qualified or unqualified parts. At least three unloading matching fixtures 430 are provided: one for temporarily storing qualified parts, another for temporarily storing unqualified parts, and the remaining fixture serves as an empty space for replacement.

[0066] Specifically, during the handling process, the second transfer mechanism 530 groups two parts together for simultaneous gripping or placement. Therefore, both parts in a group must be either qualified or unqualified. Correspondingly, the two unloading transfer fixtures 420 in a group need to ensure that the stored parts are either both qualified or both unqualified. To meet this requirement, if the unloading and handling module 410 grips two parts, one qualified and one unqualified, the unloading and handling module 410 can use the unloading matching fixture 430 to replace the qualified part with the unqualified part, or vice versa. In this way, when the unloading and handling module 410 places two parts into a set of unloading transfer fixtures 420, both parts are either qualified or unqualified, thus meeting the unloading requirements of the second transfer mechanism 530.

[0067] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 9 The testing device 300 includes a testing conveying module 310 and a testing mechanism 320. The testing conveying module 310 is mounted on the machine base 100 along the X-axis. A loading and transporting module 230 transports the workpiece to the positioning carrier 332 of the testing conveying module 310. After receiving the workpiece, the testing conveying module 310 conveys it along the X-axis toward the unloading device 400. When the testing conveying module 310 transports the workpiece to a position close to the unloading device 400, the unloading and transporting module 410 grabs the workpiece from the positioning carrier 332 and places it on the unloading transfer fixture 420, where it is gripped by the second transfer mechanism 530. The testing mechanism 320 is located on the transmission path of the testing conveying module 310. When the testing conveying module 310 transports the workpiece to the location of the testing mechanism 320, the testing mechanism 320 tests the workpiece to determine whether it is qualified.

[0068] Furthermore, the testing mechanism includes a mounting frame 321, a testing module 322, a first drive module 323, and a second drive module 324. The mounting frame 321 is disposed on the machine base 100, the first drive module 323 is disposed on the mounting frame 321, the second drive module 324 is disposed on the drive part of the first drive module 323, and the testing module 322 is disposed on the drive part of the second drive module 324 and located above the testing and conveying module 310. The first drive module 323 is used to drive the second drive module 324 to move along the Y-axis direction, and the second drive module 324 is used to drive the testing module 322 to move along the Z-axis direction.

[0069] Specifically, when the inspection and conveying module 310 conveys the workpiece directly below the inspection module 322, the first drive module 323 drives the inspection module 322 to move along the Y-axis, thereby adjusting the position of the inspection module 322 relative to the workpiece in the Y-axis direction; the second drive module 324 drives the inspection module 322 to move up and down along the Z-axis, thereby adjusting the distance between the inspection module 322 and the workpiece. With this configuration, the inspection module 322 can be adjusted to a suitable position for better imaging and inspection of various areas of the workpiece, thus ensuring the accuracy of the workpiece inspection.

[0070] In order for the detection module 322 to detect the side of the workpiece, in some embodiments, reference is made to... Figures 9 to 11 The detection device also includes a carrier assembly 330 disposed on the detection conveying module 310, which is used to load the material. Specifically, the carrier assembly 330 includes a mounting base 331, a positioning carrier 332, a third drive module 333, and a fourth drive module 334. The mounting base 331 is disposed on the drive unit of the detection conveying module 310, and the positioning carrier 332 is disposed on the mounting base 331 and is used to load the material to be detected. The third drive member 5126 is used to drive the positioning carrier 332 to rotate about a horizontal axis perpendicular to the detection conveying module 310, that is, the third drive member 5126 is used to drive the positioning carrier 332 to rotate about the Y-axis; the fourth drive module 334 is used to drive the positioning carrier 332 to rotate about a vertical axis, that is, the fourth drive member 5126 is used to drive the positioning carrier 332 to rotate about the Z-axis. When the inspection module 322 is inspecting the parts, the third drive module drives the carrier to rotate around the Y-axis, so that the inspection module 322 can inspect the sides of the parts on opposite sides of the Y-axis; the fourth drive module 334 drives the carrier to rotate around the Z-axis, so that the inspection module 322 can inspect the sides of the parts on opposite sides of the X-axis. With this configuration, the inspection module 322 can accurately detect whether each part is qualified.

[0071] Furthermore, in order to realize the rotation of multiple positioning carriers 332, the carrier assembly 330 also includes a mounting shell 336 and a drive shaft 335. The mounting shell 336 extends along the Y-axis, and both ends of the mounting shell 336 are rotatably connected to the mounting base 331 around the Y-axis. Each positioning carrier 332 is mounted on the mounting shell 336. A third drive module is mounted on the mounting shell 336 or the mounting frame 321 and is used to drive the mounting shell 336 to rotate around the Y-axis, thereby driving each positioning carrier 332 to rotate around the Y-axis. At the same time, the drive shaft 335 is located on the inner side of the mounting shell 336 along the Y-axis and is rotatably connected to the mounting shell 336 around the Y-axis. A fourth drive module 334 is mounted on the mounting shell 336 and is used to drive the drive shaft 335 to rotate. Multiple worm gear modules 3351 are spaced apart on the drive shaft 335. Each positioning carrier 332 is connected to the output shaft of the worm gear module 3351. Therefore, the fourth drive module 334 drives the drive shaft 335 to rotate. The drive shaft 335 drives each positioning carrier 332 to rotate around the Z-axis simultaneously through the multiple worm gear modules 3351.
