Pneumatic adjustable remote center compliance device

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of mechanical assembling and discloses a pneumatic adjustable remote center compliance device. The device comprises a fixed platform, a plurality of adjustable elastic units and a moving platform, wherein the fixed platform and the moving platform are arranged oppositely up and down, the adjustable elastic units are arranged obliquely between the fixed platform and the moving platform in a circumferential annular array mode with the circle center of the outer side end surface of the fixed platform as the center. Each adjustable elastic unit comprises an upper base, a lower base, a petal-type multi-cavity adjustable elastic structure, a stacked elastic structure and a gas channel nipple which are arranged coaxially, wherein the petal-type multi-cavity adjustable elastic structure is fixed to the stacked elastic structure in a sleeving mode to form a plurality of gas channels, the upper end and the lower end of the petal-type multi-cavity adjustable elastic structure are sleeved with the upper base and the lower base correspondingly in a sealed mode, and the gas channel nipple is fixedly connected with the upper base and connected with the gas channels. According to the pneumatic adjustable remote center compliance device provided by the invention, by additionally arranging a gas actuating structure, the universality of the compliance device is improved, and requirements of assembling operation for a series of shaft holes of various sizes can be met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a technology in the field of mechanical assembly, in particular to a pneumatic adjustable remote-center compliance device. Background technique [0002] In automated assembly operations, the existence of various errors can easily cause jamming between parts to be assembled. In engineering practice, positioning compensation and error correction of assembly robots are often used to solve such problems. At present, robot error compensation is mainly realized through compliant operation, including active compliant and passive compliant methods. Although passive compliance devices have problems such as low precision and poor controllability, they have the advantages of fast response speed, simple structure and control, etc., which are of great significance for industrial automation production. In addition, the compliant operation of the passive compliant device is not limited by the tolerance requirements of the parts to be assembl...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Most of the existing far-center compliance devices use elastic units with fixed structural dimensions and flexible characteristics. The end compliance center and lateral/axial compliance of the entire device cannot be changed, so it cannot be applied to occasions where the part size is variable

On this basis, an adjustable far-center compliance device has been developed, most of which use mechanical motion to adjust the stiffness parameters or
