Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field related to mechanical clamps, and in particular to a sliding mechanical clamp. Background Art

[0002] A mechanical gripper is a mechanical device that serves as the core component of a robot's end effector, responsible for precisely capturing, grasping, and manipulating objects. Mechanical grippers play an important role in production, operating in harsh environments such as high temperatures, toxicity, high vibration, flammability, explosiveness, monotony, and radioactivity. They can effectively replace humans in dangerous and tedious tasks, reducing labor intensity and increasing productivity. Mechanical grippers have various motion modes, with the most common being sliding grippers, which are very stable and reliable. Therefore, a sliding gripper is particularly desirable.

[0003] However, most existing sliding mechanical grippers generally use motion control to ensure their grasping accuracy. Once the control deviation causes a position error between the device and the grasping target, it will lead to grasping failure. The control accuracy and stability limit the success rate of the mechanical grasping device. Utility Model Content

[0006] Preferably, the mounting blocks and the first cylinders are provided in two groups, and are respectively provided on both sides of the middle stopper.

[0007] Preferably, two groups of the side panels and the sliding blocks are provided, and the slide rails form a sliding structure through the sliding blocks and the side panels.

[0008] Preferably, connecting rods and guide wheels are provided in the first guide block and the second guide block, and four groups of connecting rods are provided in each of the first guide block and the second guide block.

[0009] Preferably, the guide wheel is connected to the connecting rod via a bearing, and the guide wheel and the connecting rod form a rotating structure.

[0010] Preferably, three sets of guide wheels are provided on each set of connecting rods.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the sliding mechanical clamp is provided with a connecting plate, a mounting block, a first cylinder, a side plate, a slider, a slide rail, a connecting frame, a connecting block, a neutral stopper, a first fixed plate, a second fixed plate, a first clamp, a first guide block, a connecting rod, a guide wheel, a mounting plate, a second cylinder, a clamp plate, a second clamp and a second guide block. When the clamping work is performed, the two first cylinders extend and simultaneously press against the neutral stopper, and the first clamp and the second clamp cannot move left and right. As the first clamp and the second clamp descend to approach the grasping target, When the first cylinder retracts, the slide rail can slide at one end of the slider, and the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw are in a slidable state. If the grasping target hits the first guide block or the second guide block, the grasping target will push the first clamping jaw or the second clamping jaw to slide away from the currently contacted first guide block or the second guide block, so that the grasping target falls between the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw. After the grasping work is completed, the first cylinder is extended again, and the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw return to a non-sliding state. In this way, automatic compensation can be achieved when the grasping position deviates, and the grasping accuracy and success rate are higher. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
