Abstract

An automatic plugging/unplugging device for a connector, an automatic plugging method, an automatic unplugging method, and a computer-readable storage medium are disclosed. The automatic plugging/unplugging device may include a clamping unit (201) and a force detection unit (202). The clamping unit (201) is configured to hold a connector (10), and may include at least one of a vibration sensor (2017) and a sound sensor (2014). The vibration sensor (2017) is configured to detect the vibration resulting from plugging or unplugging the connector (10), and the sound sensor (2014) is configured to detect the sound generated during plugging or unplugging the connector (10). The force detection unit (202) may include a detection base (2021) and a force sensor (2023). The force sensor (2023) is configured to detect the magnitude of a plugging or unplugging force generated during plugging or unplugging the connector (10).
