The adjacent sides of the connecting plate are connected to the grabbing airbags, the lower sides of the grabbing airbags are connected to the grabbing heads, and the non-adjacent sides of the middle of the connecting plate are connected to the air pressure controller. After the connecting plate rotates to drive the grabbing airbag and the grabbing head to contact the material, the air pressure controller controls the inflation of the airbag, so that the material can be wrapped according to its shape and the material is fixed between the grabbing airbags.

[0008] As a further preferred solution, the grabbing head is an elastic structure.

[0009] As a further preferred solution, the grabbing heads are all arranged at an angle to facilitate grabbing of materials.

The pneumatic actuator is connected to non-adjacent sides of the upper part of the connecting plate. The pneumatic actuator is rotatably connected to the flip block, and the flip block is connected to the opening and closing cover. After grabbing the material, the pneumatic actuator is used to control the flip block to rotate, and the rotation of the flip block drives the opening and closing cover to rotate and close, and the slipping material is intercepted by the opening and closing cover to prevent the material from falling.

[0011] As a further preferred solution, the opening and closing cover forms a hemispherical structure when closed, which is convenient for intercepting slipping materials.

[0012] The utility model has the following advantages: the utility model controls the inflation of the airbag through an air pressure controller to wrap the material according to its shape, and then controls the rotation of the flip block through a pneumatic actuator. The rotation of the flip block drives the opening and closing cover to rotate and close to intercept the slipping material, which can improve the grasping stability of the material and prevent the material from falling during the grasping process.
