[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 The decorative part applicator in this embodiment includes a base frame 100 and a top frame 200. The base frame 100 includes a first frame 101, foot pads 102 and a cooling fan 103. The top frame 200 includes a second frame 201, a display screen 202 and a work indicator light 203.

[0025] Base frame and top frame structure:

[0026] The base frame 100's first frame 101 is supported by foot pads 102, and the side cooling fan 103 ensures the stability of the equipment during long-term operation. The top frame 200's second frame 201 is fixed to the top of the first frame, and the front is equipped with a display screen 202 and indicator lights 203 to monitor the operating status.

[0027] Decorative component limiting structure 400:

[0028] The decorative piece 300 is placed on the top of the frame. The top cylinder 403 drives the fixing plate 402 to move down, so that the diamond-shaped lock hole of the limit lock head 401 engages with the decorative piece lock, preventing displacement during the fitting process.

[0029] Horizontal moving structure 600:

[0030] The front and rear motors 601 drive the linear module 602 to move the moving plate 700 horizontally, adjusting the edge-fitting structure 800 to different fitting positions of the decorative parts.

[0031] Edge-fitting structure 800:

[0032] Decorative strip wheel 801 and bottom paper tray 802 are mounted on the top of the moving plate via a rotating shaft. After being wound by guide roller 803, the decorative strip is pulled to the edge of the decorative piece by traction device 807; clamping cylinder one 804 and clamping cylinder two 805 clamp the decorative strip in two stages to ensure no air bubbles; cutting cylinder 806 completes the cutting. Rotary motor 808 provides power to traction device.

[0033] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0034] The decorative piece is placed on top of frame 101. The decorative piece limiting structure 400 automatically locks and fixes it. The horizontal moving structure 600 drives the edge-fitting structure 800 to the starting position. The decorative strip traction device 807 pulls out the decorative strip. The decorative strip is pressed against the outer wall of the decorative piece by the decorative strip pressing cylinder 804 and the decorative strip pressing cylinder 805. The rotary motor 808 drives the decorative piece to rotate to achieve full circumference bonding. After bonding is completed, the decorative strip cutting cylinder 806 cuts the decorative strip. The equipment is reset and ready for the next operation.
