[0049] The outer shell A of the previous work station was placed on the vehicle. Figure 2 At the bottom right corner), it moves with the linear module to the dispensing station (i.e., the dispensing device), where the dispensing device dispenses glue onto the outer ring of housing A; housing B is fed by the vibrating feeding device and reaches the two product slots of the cutting device, where the assembly robot grabs housing B from the product slot and places it onto housing A after dispensing. After assembly, the carrier moves to the curing station (i.e., the UV curing device); the curing lifting drive cylinder drives the UV light source structure to descend and press the product for pressure curing, and the pressure head uses high-transparency optical glass; this allows the UV light source above to directly perform the curing process, achieving overall automation.
