A potentiometer typically consists of a resistive element and a movable brush. Its main function is to adjust the magnitude of voltage and current. Its working principle involves manually adjusting the rotating shaft or slider to change the position of the moving contact on the resistive element, thus changing the resistance between the moving contact and any of the fixed terminals, thereby altering the voltage and current.

Above the end of the feeding chute away from the vibrating feeder, a clamping member for clamping and fixing the housing is provided, along with a first linear drive member and a second linear drive member for adjusting the position of the clamping member. The first linear drive member is used to adjust the height of the clamping member, and the second linear drive member is used to drive the clamping member to move horizontally between the feeding chute and the positioning fixture.

[0006] Furthermore, several in-situ sensors are installed on the feeding chute along its length.

[0007] Furthermore, a fixed seat is horizontally arranged above the side of the feeding chute away from the vibrating feeder, and a first movable seat is horizontally slidably arranged on the fixed seat. The second linear drive member is used to push the first movable seat to slide horizontally on the fixed seat. A second movable seat is slidably arranged on the first movable seat. The first linear drive member is used to push the second movable seat to slide up and down. The clamping member is fixed on the second movable seat.

[0008] Furthermore, the clamping member is a vertically downward-facing finger cylinder used to insert into the inner support on both sides of the potentiometer housing for fixation.

[0009] Further, the feeding chute top end two sides along its length direction are equipped with the baffle for limiting potentiometer shell, and the baffle is equipped with the opening that the bottom end of containing clamping piece inserts downwards in the inside far from the vibration feeder.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are: the shell assembly mechanism for the straight sliding type potentiometer is set with the vibration feeder to feed into the feeding chute one by one, and by setting the clamping piece, the first linear driving part and the second linear driving part, the potentiometer shell at the end of the feeding chute can be clamped and fixed, and then sent to the inside of the positioning tool, so that the automation degree is high, and the work efficiency is improved.
