However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0027] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0028] Example

[0029] Reference Figures 1-4 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides an intelligent steel sorting robotic arm, comprising:

[0030] The actuator 100 includes a rotating base 110, a multi-angle robotic arm 120 fixedly installed on the top of the rotating base 110, and a support rod 130 fixedly installed at the end of the multi-angle robotic arm 120.

[0031] The quick clamping mechanism 200 includes a bearing seat 210, a rotating shaft 220 rotatably mounted on the outside of the bearing seat 210, a clamping button 230 for quick disassembly by manual pressing, and a locking block 240 fixedly mounted on the outside of the clamping button 230 for quick positioning.

[0032] In addition, there is an auxiliary ejection mechanism 300 that, in conjunction with the quick-clamping mechanism 200, quickly ejects the mounting section when pressure is applied to the clamping button 230.

[0033] The synergistic effect of the quick clamping mechanism 200 and the auxiliary ejection mechanism 300 significantly shortens the replacement time of the gripping component 150, improving the efficiency of continuous production line operation. In addition, it reduces problems such as thread stripping and seal wear caused by frequent disassembly and assembly, extends the service life of the equipment, and reduces manual intervention, making the operation more intelligent and convenient.

[0034] Specifically, the quick clamping mechanism 200 also includes a through hole 250 on the outside of the clamping button 230, a return spring 260 fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the through hole 250 to continuously apply pressure to the clamping button 230, a limiting block 270 movably sleeved in the inner cavity of the return spring 260, a mounting plate 280 fixedly installed on the outside of the limiting block 270, and a bolt 290 threaded on the outside of the mounting plate 280.

[0035] The operator only needs to press the clamping button 230 to quickly release the gripping component 150 by disengaging the locking block 240 from the locking slot 153. This eliminates the need for tools and greatly simplifies the replacement process. The reset spring 260 ensures that the clamping button 230 automatically returns to its original position after being released, preventing accidental unlocking due to accidental touch or vibration, thus improving the stability and safety of the system. The cooperation between the limit block 270 and the mounting plate 280 allows the gripping component 150 to automatically align during installation, avoiding positioning deviations caused by manual adjustments and ensuring clamping accuracy.

[0036] Furthermore, the actuator 100 also includes a groove 140 formed on the outside of the support rod 130, a gripping component 150 disposed on the outside of the support rod 130, and a screw 160 disposed on the outside of the support rod 130 for secondary fixation of the gripping component 150.

[0037] The groove 140 and screw 160 serve as auxiliary fixing structures for the gripping assembly 150, providing additional locking force under extreme working conditions to prevent displacement due to vibration, thus balancing the requirements for quick replacement and high stability.

[0038] Preferably, the gripping assembly 150 includes a disc body 151, an insert 152 movably inserted into the opening in the inner cavity of the support rod 130, and a slot 153 formed on the outside of the insert 152 for engaging with the locking block 240. The gripping assembly 150 also includes a cylinder 154 fixedly installed on the outside of the disc body 151, and a gripping claw 155 fixedly installed on the output end of the cylinder 154.

[0039] The insertion tube 152 and the support rod 130 are fitted with a precision guide structure to ensure that no complicated calibration is required during installation and that insertion and removal are smooth. The locking mechanism of the slot 153 and the block 240 provides a firm connection to prevent loosening during operation.

[0040] Furthermore, the auxiliary ejection mechanism 300 includes a push block 310 fixedly installed in the hollow cavity of the support rod 130, a compression spring 320 fixedly installed on the outside of the push block 310, and a support block 330 fixedly installed at the end of the compression spring 320. The outside of the support block 330 is fixedly installed in the cavity of the support rod 130, and the bolt 290 is threadedly connected to the outside of the support rod 130.

[0041] When the gripping button 230 is pressed, the compression spring 320 releases its elastic force, pushing the insert 152 outward, causing the gripping component 150 to automatically detach from the support rod 130 without manual force, thus reducing operational intensity. The elastic design of the compression spring 320 can absorb minor vibrations during the movement of the robotic arm, preventing the gripping component 150 from loosening due to inertia during high-speed sorting, thereby improving system reliability. The auxiliary ejection mechanism 300 is integrated inside the support rod 130, without occupying additional space, and does not affect the overall rigidity and range of motion of the robotic arm.

[0042] In use, the robotic arm adjusts its position and posture by rotating the base 110 and the multi-angle robotic arm rod 120, and the gripping component 150 at the end of the support rod 130 clamps the steel under the drive of the cylinder 154.

[0043] When the clamp needs to be changed, press the clamping button 230, the locking block 240 disengages from the slot 153, and at the same time the compression spring 320 of the auxiliary ejection mechanism 300 pushes the insert 152 outward, so that the gripping component 150 automatically ejects.

[0044] After the new component is inserted into the support rod 130, the locking block 240 and the locking slot 153 automatically lock together. The reset spring 260 ensures that the button returns to its original position, the limit block 270 assists in alignment, and the screw 160 can further reinforce it. The whole process requires no tools.

[0045] In summary, the coordinated action of the quick-clamping mechanism 200 and the auxiliary ejection mechanism 300 enables the gripping component 150 to be replaced in seconds, significantly improving production line efficiency. Replacement can be completed simply by pressing the clamping button 230, while avoiding problems such as thread stripping and seal wear caused by frequent disassembly and assembly, thus extending the equipment's lifespan. In addition, the modular design supports rapid switching between various clamps, enhancing versatility, and through mechanisms such as automatic reset, precise positioning, and vibration buffering, ensures the stability and safety of the sorting process, significantly reducing manual intervention and achieving intelligent operation.
