[0022] Furthermore, the clamping assembly includes a first motor 6, a worm gear 7, a fixed shaft 8, a worm wheel 9, a connecting rod 10, and a clamping plate 11.

The fixed shaft 8 is fixedly installed on the inner walls of the front and rear sides of the hollow column 3. The worm wheel 9 is rotatably installed on the outer wall of the fixed shaft 8. The connecting rod 10 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the worm wheel 9. The clamping plate 11 is fixedly installed on one end of the connecting rod 10. There are two fixed shafts 8, two worm wheels 9, two connecting rods 10, and two clamping plates 11, which are arranged symmetrically from left to right. The worm gear 7 meshes with the worm wheel 9. When the first motor 6 is started, the output shaft of the first motor 6 drives the worm gear 7 to rotate. The rotation of the worm gear 7 drives the two worm wheels 9, the connecting rod 10, and the clamping plate 11 to rotate in opposite directions, so that the two clamping plates 11 can clamp the glass insulator 5.
[0023] Furthermore, the lifting structure includes a second motor 13, a gear 14, and a rack A15. The second motor 13 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the housing 2, and the gear 14 is rotatably installed on both sides of the inner wall of the housing 2. The output shaft of the second motor 13 is fixedly installed with one end of the gear 14. The rack A15 is fixedly installed on the rear outer wall of the hollow column 3, and the rack A15 meshes with the gear 14. When the second motor 13 is started, the output shaft of the second motor 13 drives the gear 14 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 14 drives the rack A15, the hollow column 3, and the glass insulator 5 to rise, thereby picking up the glass insulator 5 on the transport equipment 4.

The third motor 19 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the frame 1, the threaded rod 20 is rotatably installed on both sides of the frame 1, and the guide rod 21 is fixedly installed on both sides of the frame 1. The output shaft of the third motor 19 is fixedly installed on one end of the threaded rod 20. The housing 2 is threaded onto the threaded rod 20 and slidably installed on the guide rod 21. When the third motor 19 is started, the output shaft of the third motor 19 drives the threaded rod 20 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod 20 drives the housing 2, the hollow column 3, and the glass insulator 5 to move to the right, thereby stacking the glass insulator 5 onto the stacking tray.
[0025] Furthermore, the receiving structure includes a receiving box 12, a slider 16, and a rack B18. The rack B18 is fixedly installed on the top of the slider 16, and the bottom end of the slider 16 is fixedly installed on the rear outer wall of the receiving box 12. The rack B18 meshes with the gear 14. During the lifting process, the lifting structure can also drive the receiving box 12 to move below the glass insulator 5. When the glass insulator 5 is not clamped and falls, the receiving box 12 can catch the falling glass insulator 5, preventing injury to the workers and preventing the glass insulator 5 from being broken, thus protecting the product.
[0026] Furthermore, a sliding groove is provided at the bottom of the chassis 2, and a slider 16 is slidably installed in the sliding groove. The slider 16 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bending rod 17.
[0027] Furthermore, the hollow column 3 has an opening, and the connecting rod 10 is located inside the opening.
[0028] Working principle: By starting the first motor 6, the output shaft of the first motor 6 drives the worm gear 7 to rotate. The rotation of the worm gear 7 drives the two worm wheels 9, the connecting rod 10, and the clamping plate 11 to rotate in opposite directions, so that the two clamping plates 11 can clamp the glass insulator 5. Then, the second motor 13 is started, and the output shaft of the second motor 13 drives the gear 14 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 14 drives the rack A15, the hollow column 3, and the glass insulator 5 to rise, thereby picking up the glass insulator 5. The rotation of the gear 14 can also drive the rack B18, the bending rod 17, the slider 16, and the receiving box 12 to move forward, so that the receiving box 12 can be moved below the glass insulator 5. The receiving box 12 prevents the glass insulator 5 from falling. By starting the third motor 19, the output shaft of the third motor 19 drives the threaded rod 20 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod 20 drives the machine box 2, the hollow column 3, and the glass insulator 5 to move to the right, thereby stacking the glass insulator 5 onto the stacking tray.
