[0030] Working principle: It should be noted that the installation positions of all related fastening components inside the device are facing the working area of ​​the fence, so as to prevent outsiders from disassembling the device from the outside.

[0031] according to Figure 5 As shown, the main support frame 4 and the secondary support frame 5 need to be adjusted to the appropriate positions and then installed in the middle position of the main column 2 and the secondary column 3. The installation of the two is the same. Here, the main support frame 4 is used as an example.

[0032] When the main support frame 4 needs to be installed in the middle position between the main column 2 and the secondary column 3, the main support frame 4 first needs to be adjusted to a suitable position and then its side positioning T-shaped block 701 is pushed into the corresponding positioning T-shaped groove 703 on the side of the main column 2 and the secondary column 3. Then, the movement of the positioning T-shaped block 701 will automatically drive the abutment post 702 to be inserted into the corresponding columnar groove 704. When the positioning T-shaped block 701 moves to the bottom of the positioning T-shaped groove 703, the nut block 705 is screwed onto the outside of the annular thread groove of the abutment post 702 to complete the fastening installation of the main support frame 4.

[0033] according to Figures 1-4 As shown, when it is necessary to connect and install the main post 2 and the secondary post 3 in two sets of fences, firstly, the main post 2 needs to be adjusted to a suitable position and then its side positioning strip 601 is pushed into the corresponding positioning slot 603. When the positioning strip 601 moves to the bottom of the positioning slot 603, the installation positions of the positioning thread groove 604 and the docking thread groove 605 are aligned. Then, the fastening bolt 606 is directly passed through the positioning thread groove 604 and screwed to the bottom of the docking thread groove 605. This process completes the docking and installation of the main post 2 and the secondary post 3.

[0034] according to Figure 6 As shown, the content of the warning sign 802 here is used to describe the specifications and model of the handling robot, as well as the corresponding working area, and is accompanied by relevant warning slogans to warn and remind outsiders not to accidentally enter in order to avoid accidental collisions with the handling robot;

[0035] When it is necessary to install the warning sign 802 inside the secondary support frame 5, simply adjust the warning sign 802 to a suitable position and push it into the placement slot 801. Then, the main magnetic block 803 and the secondary magnetic block 804 will come into contact and attract each other, thus completing the installation process of the warning sign 802. When disassembling, use a control tool to push the warning sign 802 out of the placement slot 801 through the through hole 805, thus completing the disassembly process.

[0036] The above is the entire working process of the device, and all contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
