Problems solved by technology

Because this method needs to realize the control of force and position at the same time, there is force / position coupling, so the realization is more complicated; second, the active force control based on the end tool
Generally speaking, using algorithms to realize impedance control and force / position hybrid control by the controller of the robot has a slow response speed and poor algorithm stability, making it difficult to realize industrial production.

Abstract

The invention discloses a robot polishing and grinding force control end effector. The robot polishing and grinding force control end effector comprises a rotation part, a linear motion part and a grinding head part. A pneumatic motor is adopted as a power source for the effector, and the total mass of the effector is effectively reduced. Usage of a coupler is avoided, accordingly, the complexityof the mechanism is reduced, and the structure is more compact. The rotation movement of the pneumatic motor is transmitted to a ball spline through a main shaft, and the ball spline transmits the rotation movement to the grinding head part. Since the ball spline has the functions of torque transmission and untight connection, mechanical decoupling of the two freedom degrees of a grinding head isachieved at the position of the ball spline. Compared with the current situation that connection of an effector and a macro robot system is conducted at the top end of the effector, by means of the robot polishing and grinding force control end effector, the polished and ground surface capsizing moment is effectively reduced, and the polishing and grinding quality is improved. By means of the robot polishing and grinding force control end effector, control over the polishing and grinding tool force, the polishing and grinding rotation speed and other important polishing and grinding parameterscan be achieved, the effector is simple in structure, small in mass and high in force control precision and response speed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automation equipment and robots, in particular to a robot polishing force-controlled end effector. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of industrial robots, their applications in various industrial fields are becoming more and more extensive. In some contact operations, industrial robots are required to have the ability to perceive and control contact force to meet the requirements of precision operations, such as grinding, polishing and assembly operations. During the grinding and polishing operation, the processing tool wears with use, resulting in surface position error, which changes the contact force and affects the processing effect. Therefore, realizing the constant force contact between the tool and the workpiece has important practical significance for the application of industrial robots in contact operations. [0003] Grinding, as a typical example of contact work, requir...
