[0002] Nowadays, engineering robots are widely used in various fields. In order to ensure the safety and normal use of such equipment, many devices are equipped with corresponding locking functions. The locking function refers to the limiting function of the locking device on the actuator in the system. The locking device must not only keep the mechanism locked in a certain position, but also ensure that it has reliable strength and rigidity. In the process of engineering use, it is usually required that the locking device can stably withstand external loads for a long time without any displacement when the movement stops, that is, it is required to have a locking and positioning function without "soft leg" phenomenon. In some special fields, such as aviation and military fields, the actuator has high position accuracy when working, and it is required to have no displacement changes for a long time under load, and more reliable safety is also required.
[0003] The hydraulic cylinder in a general engineering hydraulic system is kept at any position and bears a certain load force by using a hydraulic locking circuit. When a hydraulic locking circuit is used, once the hydraulic pipeline is damaged, the locking will fail and internal leakage of the hydraulic valve is inevitable. This puts higher requirements on the matching locking device.

[0066] 1) Telescopic oil circuit: After the hydraulic oil is passed through the first oil port 1-6 on the first cylinder bottom 1-1 of the hollow piston rod hydraulic cylinder 1, the hydraulic oil flows into the first oil chamber 1-10; after the hydraulic oil is passed through the third oil port 1-8 on the cylinder head 1-2 of the hollow piston rod hydraulic cylinder 1, the hydraulic oil flows into the second oil chamber 1-11.
[0067] 2) Control oil circuit: After the hydraulic oil is passed through the second oil port 1-7 on the central oil pipe 1-9, the hydraulic oil flows through the central oil pipe 1-9, flows into the cavity of the hollow piston rod 1-12, and then passes through the fourth oil port 1-15 of the hollow piston rod 1-12, passes through the connecting oil circuit 2, and then flows into the rod cavity of the single-acting hydraulic cylinder 4 through the fifth oil port 4-1 on the single-acting hydraulic cylinder 4.
[0068] The first oil port 1-6 and the third oil port 1-8, the sixth oil port 7-3 and the seventh oil port 7-4, the eighth oil port 7-10 and the ninth oil port 7-11 are respectively connected to three three-position four-way hydraulic reversing valves, each of which is controlled by two two-position four-way solenoid valves, and the second oil port 1-7 is controlled by one solenoid valve. The accumulator is connected to all the oil ports on the two-way single-rod hydraulic cylinder group 7 to control the rapid reciprocating movement of the first piston rod 7-1 and the second piston rod 7-8 to achieve the rapid movement speed requirement of grabbing the left grabbing mechanical arm 10 and the right grabbing mechanical arm 11.
[0069] The working principle of the telescopic oil circuit of the present invention:
[0070] When the hydraulic pump passes oil into the first rodless chamber 7-6 of the bidirectional single-rod hydraulic cylinder group 7, the hydraulic oil enters the first rodless chamber 7-6 from the seventh oil port 7-4, pushing the third piston 7-2 to move outward, pushing the first piston rod 7-1 to move outward, thereby pushing the left arm movable pulley trolley 6 to move to the left, and then driving the left grabbing mechanical arm 10 to move to the left through the second chain pulley transmission mechanism 13 until the required distance is reached. At the same time, the hydraulic oil in the first rod chamber 7-5 is squeezed and flows back to the oil tank through the sixth oil port 7-3; when the hydraulic pump passes oil into the first rod chamber 7-5 of the bidirectional single-rod hydraulic cylinder group 7, the hydraulic oil enters the first rod chamber 7-5 from the sixth oil port 7-3, pushing the third piston 7-2 to move inward, driving the first piston rod 7-1 to move inward, thereby pushing the left arm movable pulley trolley 6 to move to the right, and then driving the left grabbing mechanical arm 10 to move to the left through the second chain pulley transmission mechanism 13 until the required distance is reached. At the same time, the hydraulic oil in the first rodless chamber 7-6 is squeezed and flows back to the oil tank through the seventh oil port 7-4. By controlling the extension and contraction of the first piston rod 7-1, the reciprocating motion of the left arm movable pulley trolley 6 can be controlled. Since the left end of the fixed length rod 9 is connected to the left arm movable pulley trolley 6, the left arm movable pulley trolley 6 will drive the fixed length rod 9 to move left and right along the guide device 8.
[0071] Similarly, the hydraulic oil flows from the first oil port 1-6 on the first cylinder bottom 1-1 of the hollow piston rod hydraulic cylinder 1 into the first oil chamber 1-10, lifts the first piston 1-13, pushes the hollow piston rod 1-12 to move outward, and then pushes the right arm movable pulley trolley 3 connected thereto to move to the right, and then drives the right grabbing mechanical arm 11 to move to the right through the first chain pulley transmission mechanism 5 until it reaches the required distance, and the hydraulic oil in the second oil chamber 1-11 is squeezed from the cylinder head of the hollow piston rod hydraulic cylinder 1 When the hydraulic oil flows from the third oil port 1-8 of the cylinder head 1-2 of the hollow piston rod hydraulic cylinder 1 into the second oil chamber 1-11, the first piston 1-13 of the hollow piston rod 1-12 is lifted, and the first piston 1-13 retracts inward, driving the hollow piston rod 1-12 to move inward, pulling the right arm movable pulley trolley 3 connected thereto to move to the left, and then driving the right grabbing mechanical arm 11 to move to the left through the chain pulley transmission mechanism 5 until the required distance is reached. At the same time, the hydraulic oil in the first oil chamber 1-10 is squeezed and flows back to the oil tank from the first oil port 1-6 installed on the first cylinder bottom 1-1 of the hollow piston rod hydraulic cylinder 1. By controlling the extension and retraction of the hollow piston rod 1-12, the reciprocating motion of the right arm movable pulley trolley 3 can be controlled.
[0072] When fast operation is required, the hydraulic pump pressurizes the accumulator, and the hydraulic oil quickly enters the second rodless chamber 7-12 from the eighth oil port 7-10 on the second cylinder bottom 7-7 of the two-way single-rod hydraulic cylinder group 7, lifts the fourth piston 7-9, pushes the second piston rod 7-8 to move outward, and then pushes the right arm movable pulley trolley 3 connected to it to move quickly to the right, and then drives the right grabbing mechanical arm 11 to move quickly to the right through the first chain pulley transmission mechanism 5 until it reaches the required distance, and the hydraulic oil in the second rod chamber 7-13 is squeezed out from the first The oil in the ninth oil port 7-11 flows back to the oil tank; in contrast, the hydraulic pump presses the accumulator, and the hydraulic oil quickly enters the second rod chamber 7-13 from the ninth oil port 7-11, lifts the fourth piston 7-9, drives the second piston rod 7-8 to move inward, and then pushes the right arm movable pulley trolley 3 connected thereto to move rapidly to the left, and then drives the right grabbing mechanical arm 11 to move rapidly to the left through the first chain pulley transmission mechanism 5 until it reaches the required distance, and the hydraulic oil in the second rodless chamber 7-12 is squeezed and flows back to the oil tank from the eighth oil port 7-10. The flow rate of the hydraulic oil is controlled by the accumulator, so as to meet the requirement of the rapid reciprocating movement speed of the grabbing mechanical arm.
[0073] The working principle of the oil circuit control of the present invention:
[0074] After the hydraulic oil is passed to the second oil port 1-7 of the hollow piston rod hydraulic cylinder 1, the hydraulic oil flows through the through oil pipe 1-9, enters the cavity of the hollow piston rod 1-12, enters the connecting oil circuit 2 through the fourth oil port 1-15 on the end face of the hollow piston rod 1-12, and then flows into the rod cavity of the single-acting hydraulic cylinder 4 through the fifth oil port 4-1, lifts the second piston 4-2 of the single-acting hydraulic cylinder 4, compresses the cylinder bottom spring, retracts the lock head, and completes the unlocking action; when the distance between the left grabbing mechanical arm 10 and the right grabbing mechanical arm 11 is about to reach the length of the grasped object, stop passing the hydraulic oil to the hollow piston rod. Hydraulic oil is introduced into the central oil circuit of the hydraulic cylinder 1, and then the second oil port 1-7 is connected to the oil tank. The hydraulic oil flows into the connecting oil circuit 2 through the fifth oil port 4-1 of the single-acting hydraulic cylinder 4, and then flows into the cavity of the hollow piston rod 1-12 through the fourth oil port 1-15 on the end face of the hollow piston rod 1-12. Then the hydraulic oil enters the central oil pipe 1-9, and then flows back to the oil tank through the second oil port 1-7. The spring returns to its original length, and the second piston 4-2 of the single-acting hydraulic cylinder 4 moves outward under the action of the spring, pops out the lock, and the lock cooperates with the locking groove of the fixed-length rod 9 to complete the locking action.
[0075] The central oil circuit of the hollow piston rod hydraulic cylinder is the main component of the control oil circuit. It can connect the mobile carrier to an external oil source when there is no oil pipe outside, simplify the hydraulic system structure on the carrier, reduce the mass of the hydraulic system, and improve the controllability of the system. The purpose of controlling the pop-up and retraction of the single-acting hydraulic cylinder lock is achieved; guide devices are installed on both sides of the fixed-length rod to form a sliding pair with the fixed-length rod. In the reciprocating motion of the fixed-length rod, it has a guiding and supporting function to prevent the instability of the fixed-length rod caused by the change of the movement direction and speed; the locking / unlocking function is completed by the mutual cooperation of the groove at the right end of the fixed-length rod and the single-acting hydraulic cylinder lock, which is convenient to control and responds quickly. Due to the mechanical locking structure, it is more stable and reliable when locked; by making the lock head cooperate with the grooves at different positions of the fixed-length rod, the fixed distance between the left and right grabbing mechanical arms can be changed to achieve the purpose of grabbing objects of different sizes; by using a hollow piston rod hydraulic cylinder and a two-way single-out rod hydraulic cylinder group in parallel, the different requirements of the reciprocating speed and running distance of the movable pulley trolley on the left and right sides can be met.
