Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of embodied intelligent robots and intelligent equipment, and specifically to an embodied intelligent robot with adaptive flexible tightening and a tightening process method. Background Art

[0002] In modern industrial production, tightening operations are a critical step in product assembly, and their quality directly impacts product performance and reliability. With the advancement of Industry 4.0 and intelligent manufacturing, the manufacturing industry is increasingly demanding automated, intelligent, and flexible tightening operations. As manufacturing evolves towards intelligence and flexibility, traditional tightening robots are increasingly unable to meet the complex and ever-changing production demands. Consequently, the adaptive, flexible, embodied intelligent tightening robot structure has emerged, primarily for applications in industrial scenarios requiring high-precision tightening, such as semiconductors, 3C product assembly, and mechanical equipment production.

[0003] Currently, the most common tightening robots use a fixed rigid joint serial structure, coupled with a fixed servo motor drive system and a preset program control system. However, this rigid structure lacks adaptability to changes in the working environment. When the workpiece has dimensional deviations, inaccurate assembly positions, or uneven surfaces, the end tightening actuator has difficulty accurately aligning with the target position, which can easily lead to problems such as bolt slippage and nut tilting, resulting in substandard tightening quality. In addition, when switching between products with different specifications and tightening requirements, the robot's installation position and calibration parameters need to be readjusted, resulting in long equipment commissioning times, low production efficiency, and an inability to meet flexible production needs.

[0004] Some improved tightening robots have introduced force sensors, which are installed at the end effector to monitor the torque and axial force during the tightening process. However, while the introduction of force sensors can monitor the tightening force to a certain extent, it cannot fundamentally solve the problem of the rigid joint's adaptability to workpiece position deviations and posture changes. The robot still needs to be accurately positioned and parameterized before operation. If the initial position of the workpiece is inaccurate, the force sensor can only serve as a post-event alarm and cannot actively adjust the robot's posture to adapt to changes. Furthermore, without improving the joint structure, problems such as complex equipment debugging and low production efficiency still exist.

[0005] Based on the above-mentioned technical problems, an adaptive flexible tightening embodied intelligent robot and a tightening process method are proposed. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0043] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] Example 1

[0045] In this embodiment, the embodied intelligent tightening robot mainly consists of an embodied mobile platform 1, an embodied lifting mechanism 2, an embodied articulated arm module 3, a multimodal sensing system, a tightening actuator 4, a gripper actuator 5, a multimodal sensing module 6, an intelligent control system 7, and a power supply unit 8. The specific main functions or effects include:

[0046] 1) The embodied mobile platform 1 is located at the bottom of the robot, carrying the lifting system, articulated arm, tightening shaft, control system, sensors, etc., driving the robot's flexible and autonomous movement. It has high rigidity and low center of gravity performance to ensure movement and operation stability;

[0047] 2) The embodied lifting system 2 is installed on the embodied mobile platform 1 to enable flexible lifting operations of the embodied intelligent robot. The electric push rod 203 provides the core drive, and the multi-stage telescopic mechanism 202 uses a nested carbon fiber sleeve to achieve large-scale height adjustment in a limited space. The high-rigidity guide rail 201 ensures that there is no shaking during the lifting process and maintains the stability of the torso. The force-position dual-control sensor 204 integrates a pressure sensor (to prevent overload / collision) and an encoder (real-time position feedback) to achieve smooth lifting. The dynamic balance controller 204 adjusts the motor torque in real time based on the IMU posture data to offset the center of gravity changes and adapt to operations on complex terrain.

[0048] 3) Adaptive flexible embodied articulated arms are installed on both sides of the embodied lifting system, driving the end-tightening actuator and the end-gripper actuator respectively. They sense the position and angle changes of the joints in real time, enabling flexible movement and posture adjustment. They can autonomously adjust the posture and force under complex curved surfaces, assembly errors, or vibration environments, completing a closed loop of "perception-decision-execution" to ensure high-precision screw picking and flexible tightening.

[0049] The modular joint integrates a high-torque density servo motor, a harmonic reducer, and dual encoders to achieve ±0.05° repeatability. The wrist of the six-dimensional force control unit is embedded with a high-precision torque sensor, which senses contact force in real time and supports compliant control. The active floating mechanism has an electromagnetic active damper that dynamically compensates for ±15mm position deviation and suppresses overload shock. The AI ​​edge controller runs an adaptive impedance algorithm to optimize tightening parameters through working condition learning.

[0050] 3) The visual sensor 601 is installed at the front end of the articulated arm to identify the shape, position and bolt hole distribution of the workpiece. The force sensor 602 is distributed at the flexible joint connection and inside the end effector to monitor the axial force, torque and force conditions of each joint during the tightening process in real time. The tactile sensor 603 covers the contact part of the end effector to sense the contact status and pressure distribution with the workpiece surface.

[0051] 4) The end-tightening actuator is installed at the end of the articulated arm, which can quickly replace the appropriate tightening tool according to different tightening tasks and accurately control the tightening torque and rotation angle. The end-clamp actuator is installed at the end of the articulated arm, which can quickly pick up different bolts according to different tightening tasks and accurately place them in the tightening position;

[0052] 5) The intelligent control system 7 is installed within the robot and connected to all components via a data bus. It is responsible for receiving data collected by the multimodal perception system, analyzing and processing it using artificial intelligence algorithms and control models, generating control instructions to drive the adaptive flexible articulated arm, the end-actuator tightening actuator, and the end-gripper actuator. This enables the robot to complete a fully closed loop of "perception-cognition-decision-execution" in unstructured scenarios, and possesses anti-interference, self-learning, and highly flexible operational capabilities.

[0053] The AI ​​decision engine 701 is equipped with reinforcement learning and knowledge graphs to support dynamic task planning and autonomous decision-making in the event of an emergency. The adaptive controller 702 uses impedance control and digital twin technology to achieve a millisecond-level force-position hybrid closed loop. The edge computing unit 703 is embedded with an AI chip, and the cross-domain collaborative protocol uses ROS2 and OPC UA to achieve collaborative control of the robot arm, mobile platform, and tool end.

[0054] 6) The power supply unit 8 is installed on the robot's mobile platform to provide continuous power during movement, addressing the wear limitations of traditional slip rings or drag chains and supporting uninterrupted operation. The magnetic resonance transmitter 801 is a ground-embedded coil array that generates a high-frequency alternating magnetic field. The receiving module 802 is a resonant coil integrated into the robot chassis, supporting ±15cm dynamic offset compensation.

[0055] The GaN device of the high-efficiency rectifier module 803 realizes AC / DC conversion and outputs 48V DC. The intelligent energy management monitors the received power and temperature in real time and adjusts the transmission intensity through ZigBee feedback. The battery component 805 uses a lithium metal negative electrode + sulfide electrolyte, supports 10C discharge rate, and is equipped with a wireless fast charging interface and is compatible with Qi2.0 magnetic resonance.

The execution action is that the intelligent control system generates motion control instructions, and the adaptive flexible articulated arm adjusts its posture according to the instructions. The operating environment parameters include the current position and angle of the joint.

[0063] The operating environment parameters include pre-tightening torque threshold, rotation speed, etc. The operating principle is that the electric screwdriver rotates according to the set parameters, and the force sensor converts the force signal into an electrical signal and transmits it to the intelligent control system;

[0064] 5) The execution subjects are the intelligent control system, the end tightening actuator and the force sensor. The object is the force and position state during the tightening process.

The drive motor 104, based on the instructions of the intelligent control system 7, fine-tunes the joint to compensate for the position deviation caused by the elastic deformation. The position and angle information of the joint are collected in real time using position sensors and angle sensors, and fed back to the intelligent control system 7, forming a closed-loop control to ensure the accuracy of the joint movement.

[0069] 2) Data processing: The visual, force, and tactile data collected by the multimodal perception module 6 are transmitted to the intelligent control system 7. The intelligent control system 7 uses a deep learning algorithm to fuse the data, identify the characteristics of the workpiece and the current tightening status, and generate joint motion control instructions and tightening parameter adjustment plans through an optimization algorithm;

[0070] 3) Technical Effect: The adaptive flexible joint arm enables the robot to adapt to the position deviation and posture changes of the workpiece, automatically adjust the position and angle of the tightening actuator 4 and the gripper actuator 5, and improve the accuracy of the tightening operation. The multimodal perception system and the intelligent control system work together to achieve real-time monitoring and intelligent control of the tightening process, ensuring the stability of the tightening quality and improving the robot's adaptability to complex working conditions.

Pre-tightening operation: The tightening actuator (4) performs pre-tightening operation on the bolt or nut according to the preset pre-tightening parameters, and the force sensor (302) monitors the axial force and torque during the tightening process in real time. When the force value reaches the pre-tightening threshold, the pre-tightening operation is suspended; S5. Force-position coordinated tightening control: The intelligent control system (7) analyzes the tightening state of the bolt and the stress on the workpiece based on the data collected by the force sensor (302) during the pre-tightening process, and uses the force-position coordinated control algorithm to dynamically adjust the tightening torque, rotation angle and movement speed of the tightening actuator (4) to perform the final tightening operation until the target torque is reached; S6. Quality Inspection and Feedback: After tightening is completed, the multimodal sensing module (6) collects data again to inspect the tightening quality and determine whether the bolts are tightened properly, whether there are any stripping or loosening problems. The intelligent control system (7) feeds back the inspection results to the operator and records them in the production database to provide data support for subsequent production optimization.
