Conventionally, a screw tightening device as shown in FIG. 1, for example, has been proposed as a fully automatic screw tightening device. That is, a motor 4 fixed to a movable base 3 that moves up and down by the operation of a cylinder 2 supported by a fixed base 1, a screw tightening bit 5 coupled to a rotating shaft of this motor 4, and
The head portion 6 holds a screw supplied through a hose 7 from a supply device (not shown). When tightening screws using such a screw tightening device, for example, as shown in FIG. Since the screw 12 is screwed in at an angle, there are disadvantages such as deforming the thread of the screw hole 9 or the screw 12 and damaging the head of the screw 12. In addition, in order to eliminate such drawbacks, the positional accuracy of the screw hole 9 of the workpiece 8 must be improved, and the workpiece 8 must be positioned accurately, or the position of the screw hole 9 can be detected to determine the stopping position of the workpiece 8. There are drawbacks such as the need for complicated positioning devices and the need for a lot of time.

An object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, and to automatically position the bit so that the axis of the screw tightening bit coincides with the axis of the screw hole, which has relatively low positional accuracy. To provide a screw tightening device adapted to compensate.

In the above configuration, at the lower end of the slide ring 36 of the screw tightening device waiting above the workpiece 8,
A screw 12' is supplied from a supply device (not shown). At the same time, when the bit cover 32 is connected to a vacuum source, the screw 12' is held by the slide ring 36 under suction. When the screw tightening device is lowered in this state, first, the flange 25 comes into contact with the upper surface of the workpiece 8. When the screw 12' is lowered further, the tip of the screw 12' hits the workpiece 8, and the bit 27 hits the head of the screw 12'. At this time, axis 2
0 is in an upwardly protruding state, and the taper hole 19
a and the tapered portion 20a are disengaged, and the base 24 becomes able to move in the radial direction of the front drive shaft 17. In this state, the drive shaft 17 is rotated while applying a downward force to the entire screw tightening device. Then, first, the tip of the bit 27 engages with the head of the screw 12'.
Next, the tip of the screw 12' is inserted into the screw hole 9 of the workpiece 8.
screwed into. At this time, if the axis 11' of the screw 12' and the axis 10 of the screw hole 9 are misaligned as shown in FIG.
A force acts to align 1' with the axis 10 of the screw hole 9. And by this power base 2
4 slides in the direction to eliminate the misalignment, and bit 27
The axis 11' of the screw 12' and the axis 10 of the screw hole 9 are aligned. At this time, since the drive shaft 17 and the bit holder 30 are connected by the Oldham joint 38, there is no need to separate the drive shaft 17 and the bit holder 30. Furthermore, the rotation of the drive shaft 17 is reliably transmitted to the bit 27 via the bit holder 30.
