Mechanical gripper for gripping flexible package products and stacking robot

Abstract

The invention discloses a mechanical gripper for gripping flexible package products and a stacking robot, which relate to the technical field of stacking robots. The mechanical gripper for gripping the flexible package products comprises a gripper assembly and a driving assembly, the gripper assembly comprises a plurality of supporting claws arranged at intervals, and the supporting claws can support the flexible package products from the bottoms of the flexible package products; the driving assembly is fixed to the mounting base plate and connected with the gripper assembly through the connecting assembly so as to drive the gripper assembly to rotate between the feeding state and the discharging state. The connecting assembly comprises a rotating shaft, a middle connecting piece and an adapter, the gripper assembly is fixedly connected with the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is rotationally connected with the mounting base plate; a limiting groove is formed in the mounting base plate, one end of the middle connecting piece is fixedly connected with the rotating shaft, the other end of the middle connecting piece penetrates through the limiting groove to be connected with the adapter, the adapter is connected with the driving assembly, the driving assembly drives the adapter to do linear motion, and the adapter drives the rotating shaft to rotate through the middle connecting piece, so that stable gripping and accurate discharging of flexible packaging products are achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of palletizing robots, in particular to a mechanical gripper and a palletizing robot for grabbing flexible packaging products. Background technique [0002] When packaging powder products, due to the high dust concentration and loud noise at the work site, it will have a serious impact on the health of workers, and the work efficiency will be greatly reduced. In order to improve work efficiency and reduce the hazards to workers' health, automatic roller conveyor lines and automatic palletizing systems are usually set up to realize automatic conveying and palletizing of powder products. [0003] The packaging of powder products includes flexible packaging products and carton packaging. Flexible packaging products are generally packaged in PE bags and kraft paper bags. The manipulator of the palletizing robot in the prior art is provided with a claw mechanism. During the process of grabbing the carton packag...

Problems solved by technology

However, for flexible packaging products, when the side edge of the flexible packaging is hooked by the claws, it is easy to cause damage to the flexible packaging; and the shape of the flexible packaging product is easily deformed by being clamped by two splints, unlike carton packaging that has side walls parallel to each other for the first splint and Clamped by the second splint, it is unstable and easy to cause early discharge
