[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Example: Please refer to Figure 1-5A horizontal loading mechanism for automobile brackets includes a guide frame 1. A platform positioning mechanism and a feeding mechanism are respectively provided on both sides of the guide frame 1. The platform positioning mechanism includes a positioning cylinder 201 and a positioning tongue 202. The feeding mechanism includes a loading translation device 301, a misalignment cylinder 302 and a loading tongue 303. A positioning carrier is slidably connected to the guide frame 1. The positioning carrier includes a carrier body 401, a positioning seat 402, a guide plate 403 and a stop bar 404. The carrier body 401 has a mounting hole 4011. Multiple limiting rollers 4012 are rotatably connected to both sides of the carrier body 401. The stop bar 404 is detachably connected to the mounting hole 4011. The positioning seat 402 is provided with multiple positioning grooves. The positioning seat 402 is located above the stop bar 404. The stop bar 404 has multiple slots. The slots correspond one-to-one with the positioning grooves. The upper and lower ends of each automobile bracket are positioned by the positioning grooves and slots respectively.

[0020] The extension and retraction of the piston rod of the positioning cylinder 201 can drive the positioning tongue 202 to perform lifting and lowering actions, thereby positioning the carrier body 401. The loading translation device 301 is used to drive the loading tongue 303 to perform translational actions, thereby driving the carrier body 401 to perform loading. The extension and retraction of the piston rod of the misalignment cylinder 302 is used to drive the loading tongue 303 to perform lifting and lowering actions.

[0021] Multiple limiting rollers 4012 are arranged in a linear array on the positioning seat 402, and there is a gap between every two adjacent limiting rollers 4012. The positioning tongue 202 can be inserted into the gap to limit the carrier body 401. The cross-section of the positioning tongue 202 and the feeding tongue 303 is V-shaped, which facilitates the positioning and feeding of the carrier body 401.

[0022] The positioning seat 402 is detachably connected to the vehicle body 401. The guide plate 403 has a guide groove on its side wall. The guide plate 403 can be positioned laterally on the vehicle bracket. There are multiple mounting holes 4011. The mounting height of the stop bar 404 can be adjusted according to the different mounting holes 4011.

[0023] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, the vertical section of the car bracket is placed along the positioning groove and guide groove onto the slot of the stop bar 404. After all the car brackets in the positioning grooves are in place, the piston rod of the positioning cylinder 201 retracts, and the positioning tongue 202 is pulled out from the gap of the limiting roller 4012. Then, the piston rod of the misalignment cylinder 302 extends, and the feeding tongue 303 is inserted into the gap between the two limiting rollers 4012. The feeding translation device 301 drives the misalignment cylinder 302 to translate one station. After feeding is completed, the positioning cylinder 201... 01 The piston rod extends again, and the positioning tongue 202 rises again to limit the carrier body 401. At the feeding mechanism, the piston rod of the misalignment cylinder 302 retracts, the feeding tongue 303 descends, and the feeding translation device 301 drives the misalignment cylinder 302 to reset. Then, the piston rod of the misalignment cylinder 302 extends again, and the feeding tongue 303 inserts into the adjacent gap to wait for the next feeding. During inspection or processing, the upper end of the car bracket exposed in the positioning groove is processed or inspected by an external processing mechanism or inspection mechanism. The placement of the car bracket is referenced. Figure 5 .
