[0025] When using this utility model to improve product insertion consistency, ensure assembly accuracy, achieve automatic insertion, and improve processing efficiency, during production, the wire harness plug 109 is first placed in the limiting cavity of the placement seat 108, with the insertion part of the wire harness plug 109 facing to the right. Then, the clamping cylinder 113 is controlled to move the moving seat 111 downward to abut against the top of the placement seat 108, thus clamping and fixing the wire harness plug 109. Further, the servo electric cylinder 107 is manually controlled by the control panel 118 to push the slide 106 to the right, thereby moving the wire harness plug 109 to the right. After moving to the right, the insertion part of the wire harness plug 109 can be inserted into the buckle part 103 on the headlight housing 102 at the corresponding point, thus achieving the desired result.

This solves the problem that in the current assembly of automotive lamp wire harnesses, the wire harness plug is manually pressed into the car lamp housing buckle by hand. The installation position of some car lamp housing buckles is narrow and the operation is labor-intensive. This makes it easy for the wire harness plug to be mis-assembled during manual assembly, and the consistency cannot be guaranteed. At the same time, the production efficiency of manual assembly is low, which seriously affects the production.
