Modularized robot teaching system

Abstract

The invention discloses a modularized robot teaching system. The modularized robot teaching system comprises a workbench, a work target, a modularized robot, a control system and a communication system, wherein the work target, the modularized robot, the control system and the communication system are mounted on the workbench; the modularized robot exchanges information with the control system through the communication system and is controlled by the control system; the work target is mounted on the workbench through a position changing machine; a visual angle device used for monitoring the work target is arranged on one side of the position changing machine, connected with the control system through the communication system and controlled by the control system; the position changing machine is connected with the control system through the communication system and controlled by the control system; the modularized robot is a tandem type modularized robot, mechanical mounting connectors between joints of modules are the same, and thus mutual replacement and free combination between the modules are achieved. The teaching system is high in operability, close to industrial production and high in practicability, and modules can be mutually replaced, conveniently dismounted and freely assembled, so that the universality is high, and secondary development is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a teaching device, in particular to a modular robot teaching system for teaching. Background technique [0002] At present, there are many manufacturers of modular robots on the market. The main idea is to use a set of modules with different sizes and performance characteristics to form the robot platform. Using modular components, it can be quickly combined into a robot with high flexibility, strong fault tolerance and Inexpensive modular robot. At present, the mechanical structure, energy control, and system control of this kind of robot are highly integrated. If it is applied to industrial production, it has its potential advantages. However, when applied to actual teaching, these advantages become disadvantages, which are mainly reflected in the following aspects : [0003] 1. The operability of modular robot training equipment is not strong [0004] Modular robots are generally controlled by a PC at present. The PC con...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] 1. The operability of modular robot training equipment is not strong

[0004] Modular robots are generally controlled by a PC at present. The PC control system is a system developed by the manufacturer using VB and other voice programs to control the operation of the equipment. There is no external interface, and it can only perform relatively simple operations in the original system operating environment. The project has no practical significance for the current teaching; while the control programs in some PLC control systems are highly integrated, it is not easy to write personalized programs, and the degree of controllability is very low; in this case, the operation of the modular robot As far as teaching is concerned, it is only in the stage of teaching operation, and it is far from reaching the point of offline programming control;

[0005] 2. Modular robots currently only operate in isolation in teaching, and are not very practical

[0006] However, the existing modular robots can set very simple tasks in teaching, which is to use the method of teaching and reproduction to carry several cylinders fixed on the iron frame, and they cannot be automatically identified, which is different from the actual industrial production of robots. The requirements are very different, and the practicability is not strong (in reality, industrial robots generally cooperate with other equipment to complete specific tasks. For example, common welding robots often work with positioners to complete welding tasks, and positioners and robots coordinate work. , so that the flat, horizontal, vertical, and upward problems in the welding process can be attributed to the flat welding process, so as to improve the welding strength, reduce the complexity of the welding process, and then improve the quality and efficiency of welding);

[0007] 3. Module integration, poor practical teaching ability

[0008] Teaching modular robots require easy disassembly and free assembly, and at the same time, the controllers, sensors, actuators and other components of the modular robot platform can be modified or designed by themselves. Only in this way can students be trained in programming, electrical control, mechanical design, sensor Application and servo drive and other aspects of the ability to enhance students' comprehensive understanding of robot technology; and existing modular robot manufacturers often use highly integrated modules in order to reduce costs, and chain connections between modules , because the manufacturer has set up corresponding standards, it is generally not allowed to disassemble casually after installation, and the space for secondary development is greatly limited, which cannot meet the requirements of teaching
