[0184] The robot arm is controlled to move at least one first workpiece 6 and at least one second workpiece 7 to a third workpiece 8 (a designated workpiece), aligning the first lower mounting hole 62 of the first workpiece 6 with the third mounting hole 81 of the third workpiece 8, and fixing the first workpiece 6, second workpiece 7 and third workpiece 8 together. Then, by manual operation or automated equipment, bolts are installed in the third mounting hole 81 and the first lower mounting hole 62 to connect the first workpiece 6 and the third workpiece 8. Next, the first gripper 1 is released from the first workpiece 6 and the second workpiece 7, and bolts are assembled in the first upper mounting hole 61 and the second mounting hole 71 by manual operation or automated equipment to connect the first workpiece 6 and the second workpiece 7 together. This achieves the technical effect of pre-positioning workpieces with multiple installation positions in a designated location and installing them.

[0185] In another exemplary embodiment, a robotic arm is connected to a support mechanism 5, and the support mechanism 5 is moved above a first loading platform by the robotic arm; a second moving mechanism 4 is controlled to move a second gripper 2 to the vicinity of a first workpiece 6, the second gripper 2 is controlled to grip at least one first workpiece 6, and the second moving mechanism 4 is controlled to remove the first workpiece 6 from the first loading platform, wherein the first loading platform is used to place at least one first workpiece 6.

Bolts are then assembled in the first upper mounting hole 61 and the second mounting hole 71 by manual operation or automated equipment to connect the first workpiece 6 and the second workpiece 7 together. Finally, the first gripper 1 and the second gripper 2 are released from the first workpiece 6 and the second workpiece 7, thus achieving the technical effect of pre-positioning workpieces in multiple installation positions at a designated location and installing them.

[0188] In a preferred embodiment, the first gripper 1 includes: a first gripper 11 and M gripping positioning pins 12;

[0189] The first gripper 11 is used to grip at least one of the first workpiece 6 and at least one of the second workpiece 7;

The bottom of the first mounting bracket 1127 is connected to the first gripping cylinder 113.

[0204] In this example, the first gripping cylinder 113 moves horizontally by the cooperation of the first slider 1125 and the first guide rail 1123, thereby adjusting the position of the first gripping cylinder 113 in the horizontal direction.

[0205] Specifically, the first gripping cylinder 113 includes: a first gripping cylinder body 1131, at least one first cylinder connector 1132, and at least one first cylinder slider 1133;

[0206] The top of the first gripping cylinder 1131 is connected to the bottom of the first mounting bracket 1127;

[0207] At least one first cylinder connector 1132 is connected to the first gripping cylinder 1131, and one first cylinder connector 1132 is used to input or discharge pressurized gas into the first gripping cylinder 1131.

[0208] At least one of the first cylinder sliders 1133 is movably connected to the first gripping cylinder 1131;

[0209] The first cylinder slider 1133 reciprocates on the first gripping cylinder 1131 by the pressurized gas in the first gripping cylinder 1131;

[0210] A first cylinder slider 1133 is connected to a first finger 111, causing the first finger 111 to reciprocate on the first gripping cylinder 1131.

[0211] In this example, by using the movable connection between the first positioning block 1121 and the first guide rail 1123, the position of the first guide rail 1123 below the support mechanism 5 can be adjusted. By connecting both the first positioning block 1121 and the first guide rail 1123 to the support mechanism 5, the technical effect of fixing the first positioning block 1121 and the first guide rail 1123 to the support mechanism 5 based on multiple connection points (i.e., multiple screws) is achieved, thereby improving the firmness of the connection of the first guide rail 1123.

[0212] The first gripping cylinder 1131 provides the power for the movement of the first cylinder slider 1133 and the first finger 111; the first cylinder slider 1133 avoids the first finger 111 from being directly connected to the first gripping cylinder 1131, making it convenient to replace the first finger 111; the first cylinder connector 1132 is used to realize the input and output of pressurized gas in the first gripping cylinder 1131.

[0213] Optionally, the first gripping cylinder 113 further includes: at least one first pressure block 1137 and at least one first pressure block screw 1138;

[0214] A first pressure block 1137 is located in a groove on the first mounting bracket 1127, and a first slider 1125 is located in the groove. A first pressure block screw 1138 is inserted from the side of the first mounting bracket 1127 into the first mounting bracket 1127 and the first pressure block 1137 to position the first pressure block 1137 and enable at least one first pressure block 1137 to position the first slider 1125 on the first mounting bracket 1127.

[0215] Specifically, the first gripping cylinder 113 further includes: at least one first pad 1134, at least one first pad screw 1135, and at least one first washer 1136;

[0216] One of the first pads 1134 is located on the side of one of the first fingers 111 facing the first workpiece 6 or the second workpiece 7;

[0217] At least one first pad screw 1135 is inserted into a first pad 1134 and a first finger 111, such that a first pad 1134 is fixed to a first finger 111;

[0218] A first pad 1136 is fitted onto a gripping positioning pin 12, the first pad 1136 being located on the side of the first finger 111 away from the first workpiece 6 or the second workpiece 7;

[0219] One of the gripping positioning pins 12 passes sequentially through a first finger 111 and a first pad 1134.

[0220] In this example, the first pad 1134 provides friction for the first workpiece 6 or the second workpiece 7, so as to ensure that the first gripper 11 can improve the clamping firmness of the first workpiece 6 and the second workpiece 7 when gripping the first workpiece 6 and the second workpiece 7.

[0221] Since the gripping positioning pin 12 will be subjected to a large force when it is inserted into the first workpiece 6 and the second workpiece 7, the first shim 1136 is set to ensure that the gripping positioning pin 12 will not directly contact the first finger 111 when it passes through the first finger 111, thereby avoiding the gripping positioning pin 12 rubbing against the first finger 111 and causing damage to the first finger 111.

[0222] Preferably, the first finger 111 has an L-shaped structure, wherein the horizontal portion of the L-shaped structure is connected to the first gripping cylinder 113.

[0223] In this example, by connecting the horizontal part of the L-shaped structure to the first gripping cylinder 113, the vertical part of the L-shaped structure can be close to or away from the second gripper 21, thereby enabling the gripping of the first workpiece 6 and the second workpiece 7 in different positional relationships.

[0224] Furthermore, the first gripper 11 also includes: a first opening and closing magnetic switch 114;

[0225] The first opening and closing magnetic switch 114 is connected to the first grasping cylinder 113, and the first opening and closing magnetic switch 114 is used to detect the opening and closing state of at least one of the first fingers 111 on the first grasping cylinder 113.

[0226] In this example, the state of each first finger 111 is detected by a first magnetic switch 114. The detection of the opening and closing of the first finger 111 by the first magnetic switch 114 mainly relies on its sensitivity to a magnetic field and changes in its switch state. Firstly, a magnet is typically installed on each first finger 111, and this magnet moves with the opening and closing of the grippers. When the grippers are closed, the magnet approaches the first magnetic switch 114, causing the metal plate or spring inside the switch to displace under the influence of the magnetic field, thereby changing the switch state. The first magnetic switch 114 typically has one or more contacts. When the magnet approaches, the contacts close, forming a circuit; when the magnet moves away, the contacts open, breaking the circuit. Therefore, by detecting the contact state of the first magnetic switch 114, the opening and closing state of the first finger 111 can be determined. Specifically, the output signal of the first magnetic switch 114 can be connected to the control system. When the gripper closes, the first magnetic switch 114 sends a signal, and the control system, upon receiving the signal, can determine that the gripper is closed. When the gripper opens, the first magnetic switch 114 stops sending a signal, and the control system knows that the gripper is open. In this way, the first magnetic switch 114 can detect the opening and closing state of the first finger 111 in real time and accurately, providing important feedback information for the automated control system and achieving precise control and operation.

[0227] In a preferred embodiment, the second gripper 2 includes: a second claw 21 and P clamping blocks 22;

[0228] The second gripper 21 is used to grip at least one of the first workpieces 6;

[0229] The second gripper 21 has at least one second finger 211, Q clamping blocks 22 are connected to one second finger 211, and P clamping blocks 22 are used to provide frictional force to at least one of the first workpieces 6;

[0230] Where P is a natural number greater than 2, Q is a natural number greater than 1, and P is greater than Q.

[0231] In this example, at least one second finger 211 clamps the first workpiece 6 through the clamping block 22. The clamping block 22 provides friction for clamping the first workpiece 6, which improves the clamping firmness of the first workpiece 6 and prevents the first workpiece 6 from shifting when the second gripper 21 moves.

[0232] Furthermore, the second gripper 21 includes: a second connecting mechanism 212, a second gripping cylinder 213, and at least one second finger 211;

[0233] The top end of the second connecting mechanism 212 is connected to the bottom end of the support mechanism 5, and the bottom end of the second connecting mechanism 212 is connected to the second gripping cylinder 213.

[0234] At least one of the second fingers 211 is connected to the second grasping cylinder 213;

[0235] The second gripping cylinder 213 is used to provide movement power to at least one of the second fingers 211, so that the second gripper 21 grips at least one of the first workpieces 6, or releases at least one of the first workpieces 6.

[0236] In this example, the connection between the second gripping cylinder 213 and the support mechanism 5 is achieved by using the second connecting mechanism 212. The second gripping cylinder 213 provides the power to move the second finger 211. The structure is simple, and the appropriate model of cylinder and finger can be quickly replaced according to the gripping force required by the second gripper 21, thus expanding the scope of application of this application.

[0237] Specifically, the second connecting mechanism 212 includes: at least one second positioning block 2121, at least one second positioning screw 2122, a second guide rail 2123, at least one second fixing screw 2124, a second slider 2125, at least one second positioning pin 2126, and a second mounting plate 2127.

[0238] A second positioning block 2121 is connected to the support mechanism 5 below by at least one second positioning screw 2122;

[0239] At least one of the second positioning blocks 2121 is slidably connected to the second guide rail 2123, and the second guide rail 2123 is connected to the lower part of the support mechanism 5 by at least one of the second fixing screws 2124;

[0240] The second guide rail 2123 is slidably connected to the second slider 2125. The second slider 2125 is connected to the top of the second mounting plate 2127 through at least one second positioning pin 2126. The bottom of the second mounting plate 2127 is connected to the second gripping cylinder 213.

[0241] In this example, the second gripping cylinder 213 moves horizontally by the cooperation of the second slider 2125 and the second guide rail 2123, thereby adjusting the position of the second gripping cylinder 213 in the horizontal direction.

[0242] Specifically, the second gripping cylinder 213 includes: a second gripping cylinder body 2131, at least one second cylinder connector 2132, and at least one second cylinder slider 2133;

[0243] The top of the second gripping cylinder 2131 is connected to the bottom of the second mounting plate 2127;

[0244] At least one second cylinder connector 2132 is connected to the second gripping cylinder 2131, and one second cylinder connector 2132 is used to input pressurized gas into or discharge pressurized gas into the second gripping cylinder 2131;

[0245] At least one of the second cylinder sliders 2133 is movably connected to the second gripping cylinder 2131.

[0246] The second cylinder slider 2133 reciprocates on the second gripping cylinder 2131 by the pressurized gas in the second gripping cylinder 2131;

[0247] A second cylinder slider 2133 is connected to a second finger 211, causing the second finger 211 to reciprocate on the second gripping cylinder 2131.

[0248] In this example, the second gripping cylinder 2131 provides the power for the movement of the second cylinder slider 2133 and the second finger 211; the second cylinder slider 2133 avoids the second finger 211 from being directly connected to the second gripping cylinder 2131, thus facilitating the replacement of the second finger 211; and the second cylinder connector 2132 enables the input and output of pressurized gas in the second gripping cylinder 2131.

[0249] Specifically, the second gripping cylinder 213 further includes: at least one second pad, at least one second pressure block 2135, and a slider mounting plate 2137;

[0250] One of the second pads is fixed to the side of the second finger 211 facing the second workpiece 7;

[0251] The second slider 2125 is fixed on the slider mounting plate 2137 on the upper surface of the second horizontal support plate. At least one second pressure block 2135 is mounted on the slider mounting plate 2137 by a second pressure block screw 2136. The bottom of the second slider 2125 is located between at least one second pressure block 2135. At least one second pressure block 2135 and the slider mounting plate 2137 cooperate with each other to fix the second slider 2125 on the second mounting support plate 2127.

[0252] In this example, the friction of the second gripper 21 when gripping the first workpiece 6 is increased by using the second pad, thereby ensuring the firmness of gripping the first workpiece 6.

[0253] By using the second cylinder slider 2133 to fix the second cylinder slider 2133 on the second mounting plate 2127, it is convenient to replace the second mounting plate 2127 and the second gripper 21.

[0254] Furthermore, the second gripper 21 also includes at least one second opening / closing proximity switch 214; at least one second opening / closing proximity switch 214 is respectively fixed on the support mechanism 5;

[0255] Each of the second opening and closing proximity switches 214 corresponds to each of the second fingers 211; each of the second opening and closing proximity switches 214 is used to detect the position of the corresponding second finger 211.

[0256] Therefore, the second opening and closing proximity switch 214 achieves the technical effect of detecting the opening and closing state of at least one of the second fingers 211 on the second gripping cylinder 213.

[0257] In this example, the second proximity switch 214 is used to detect the movement position of the second finger 211, primarily through its non-contact detection characteristics. The second proximity switch 214 can sense changes in the position of the second finger 211 without direct contact and outputs a corresponding signal. Specifically, the second proximity switch 214 is typically installed near the second finger 211. When the second finger 211 moves, its position change causes a change in the distance between it and the second proximity switch 214. The second proximity switch 214 detects this distance change based on its working principle (e.g., inductive, photoelectric, or capacitive). For an inductive second proximity switch 214, when the second finger 211 (usually made of metal) approaches its sensing surface, eddy currents are generated in the induction coil, thereby changing the coil's impedance. The second proximity switch 214 determines the position of the second finger 211 by detecting this impedance change. A photoelectric second proximity switch 214 detects the position of the second finger 211 by utilizing the blocking or scattering of a light beam. When the second finger 211 moves into the beam path, it blocks or scatters the beam, causing a change in the signal strength of the light receiver, thereby triggering the action of the second opening / closing proximity switch 214. The capacitive second opening / closing proximity switch 214 determines its position by detecting changes in capacitance between the second finger 211 and the switch housing. When the second finger 211 approaches the switch, the capacitance value changes, and the second opening / closing proximity switch 214 outputs a corresponding signal based on this change.

[0258] Optionally, the second gripper 2 may also include a second pressing mechanism 23, which is used to apply pressure to the first workpiece 6 on the second gripper 21 to disengage the first workpiece 6 from the second gripper 21.

[0259] The second pressing mechanism 23 includes: a second pressing cylinder 231, a second pressing plate 232, a second pressing magnetic switch 233, a second support plate 234, and a second support screw 235. The second support plate 234 has a U-shaped structure and is located below the second mounting plate 2127. The second support plate 234 is connected to the second mounting plate 2127 as a whole by at least one second support screw 235. The second gripping cylinder 2131 is located in the space surrounded by the second support plate 234. The second pressing cylinder 231 is located outside the second support plate 234 and is fixed to the bottom of the second support plate 234. The second pressing plate 232 is connected to the cylinder rod of the second pressing cylinder 231. The second pressing cylinder applies pressure to the first workpiece 6 located on the second gripper 21 through the second pressing plate 232, causing the first workpiece 6 to disengage from the second gripper 21.

[0260] The second pressing magnetic switch 233 is connected to the second pressing cylinder 231 and is used to detect the extension length of the cylinder rod of the second pressing cylinder 231; the second pressing connector 236 is connected to the second pressing cylinder 231 and is used to supply pressurized gas to the second pressing cylinder 231.

[0262] The first movable cylinder mechanism 31 is fixed to the support mechanism 5 by the first fixing part 32. The first connecting part 33 is located below the support mechanism 5.

[0273] The first lower positioning bushing 322 is connected to the lower surface of the first lower positioning bushing 322. The first lower positioning bushing 322 is used to accommodate the first moving cylinder 311 rod, the first nut 312, the first upper floating joint 313, and the first lower floating joint 314 of the first moving cylinder 311. Therefore, it realizes the guidance and protection of the first moving cylinder 311 rod, the first nut 312, the first upper floating joint 313, and the first lower floating joint 314, and ensures the stability of the moving direction of the first moving cylinder mechanism 31.

[0274] The first nut 312 is connected to the first moving cylinder 311 rod of the first moving cylinder 311, and the first moving cylinder 311 rod is inserted into the first upper floating joint 313. The first moving cylinder 311 rod is screwed into the first upper floating joint 313 by the thread, and the first nut 312 achieves the technical effect of fixing the first moving cylinder 311 rod to the first upper floating joint 313, so as to avoid the first moving cylinder 311 rod from deflecting in the first upper floating joint 313 after long-term use and detaching from the first upper floating joint 313.

[0276] The first movable cylinder positioning pin 332 passes through the first positioning sleeve 331 and the first gripper 1, fixing the first positioning sleeve 331 to the first mounting bracket 1127 of the first gripper 1; the positioning pin connects the first gripper 1 and the first positioning sleeve 331, improving installation efficiency.

[0277] The first movable magnetic switch 341 is connected to the first movable cylinder 311, and the first movable magnetic switch 341 is used to detect the extension distance of the first movable cylinder 311 rod of the first movable cylinder 311.

[0278] The first air pipe connector 342 is connected to the first movable cylinder 311, and the first air pipe connector 342 is used to provide pressurized gas to the first movable cylinder 311.

[0279] In this embodiment, the first movable magnetic switch 341 detects the moving distance of the piston of the first movable cylinder 311, typically through interaction with a magnet inside the first movable cylinder 311. The following is a basic description of the steps:

[0280] Magnet installation: First, install a magnet on the piston or piston of the first moving cylinder 311. This magnet will move as the piston moves.

[0281] Position of the first movable magnetic switch 341: The first movable magnetic switch 341 is installed outside the first movable cylinder 311, near the location where the magnet might pass. The position of the switch needs to be determined based on the working stroke of the first movable cylinder 311 and the required detection distance range.

[0282] Magnetic field induction: When the piston of the first moving cylinder 311 moves, the magnet also moves accordingly. When the magnet approaches the first moving magnetic switch 341, the metal plate or spring inside the switch will be displaced due to the influence of the magnetic field.

[0283] Signal output: The displacement of the first moving magnetic switch 341 changes its circuit state, thereby outputting a signal. This signal can be received and processed by the control system.

[0284] Distance detection: The control system can determine the moving distance of the piston of the first moving cylinder 311 by monitoring the signal changes output by the first moving magnetic switch 341. For example, multiple first moving magnetic switches 341 can be set at different positions, and the approximate position of the piston can be determined by detecting which switch is triggered. Alternatively, a continuously monitored first moving magnetic switch 341 can be used to estimate the piston's moving distance by monitoring changes in signal strength.

[0306] Magnetic field induction: When the piston of the second moving cylinder 411 moves, the magnet also moves accordingly. When the magnet approaches the second moving magnetic switch 441, the metal plate or spring inside the switch will be displaced due to the influence of the magnetic field.

[0307] Signal output: The displacement of the second movable magnetic switch 441 changes its circuit state, thereby outputting a signal. This signal can be received and processed by the control system.
