For example, a process, method, system, product or apparatus comprising a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or apparatuses.
[0027] One of the preferred embodiments of the present application is as follows: Figures 1 to 3As shown, an industrial gripping device includes a control arm 1 and a driving assembly 2 installed at the driving end of the control arm, a first gripping mechanism 3 and a second gripping mechanism 4. The control arm 1 can control the driving end to move within a set range of space to achieve the gripping of wheels and tires at different conveying positions. The number of the first gripping mechanism 3 and the second gripping mechanism 4 are both multiple and spaced along the circumferential direction, so that a clamping area for gripping the wheel hub can be formed between the multiple first gripping mechanisms 3, and a clamping area for gripping the tire can be formed between the multiple second gripping mechanisms 4. The driving assembly 2 is used to simultaneously drive the multiple first gripping mechanisms 3 and the second gripping mechanisms 4 to move closer to or away from each other, thereby achieving gripping or release. The second gripping mechanism 4 is located above the first gripping mechanism 3, and the clamping areas of the first gripping mechanism 3 and the second gripping mechanism 4 are eccentrically arranged, so that the gripped wheel hub and tire can be kept eccentric when placed. At the same time, after completing the grasping of the tire, the second grasping mechanism 4 can drive the tire to deflect at a set angle, thereby ensuring that the tire can be placed on the upper end surface of the wheel hub at an angle, thereby facilitating the subsequent rapid assembly of the wheel hub and tire, thereby effectively improving the assembly efficiency.
[0028] It should be known that the specific structure and working principle of the control arm 1 are well-known technologies to those skilled in the art, so they will not be elaborated in detail here. The control arm 1 mainly includes a plurality of articulated arms and a driving motor or a hydraulic system for driving each articulated arm to move. A circular mounting plate 10 can be installed at the driving end of the control arm 1, and the first gripping mechanism 3 and the second gripping mechanism 4 can be arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the mounting plate 10.
[0029] It is understandable that the spacing distance between the first gripping mechanism 3 and the second gripping mechanism 4 is at least greater than the diameter of the tire, so that the first gripping mechanism 3 and the second gripping mechanism 4 can ensure that the tire can still pass through the clamping area of the first gripping mechanism 3 and be gripped by the second gripping mechanism 4 when the first gripping mechanism 3 and the second gripping mechanism 4 are set eccentrically. When the tire is clamped, since the tire size is larger than the corresponding wheel hub, the size of the clamping area between the first gripping mechanism 3 can still meet the gripping of the wheel hub. Since the tire is generally made of rubber, when the first gripping mechanism 3 grips the wheel hub, the second gripping mechanism 4 can keep the tire clamped and stationary, or continue to clamp the tire by squeezing and deforming it. In order to reduce the transmission complexity of the drive assembly 2, this embodiment combines the material properties of the tire and sets the clamping action of the second gripping mechanism 4 synchronously with the first gripping mechanism 4.
[0030] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the driving component 2 is various. For the sake of easy understanding, one of the structures will be described in detail below. Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the driving assembly 2 includes a rotating device 21 and at least two pairs of screw rods 22; the rotating device 21 is fixedly installed in the middle of the mounting disk 10, the screw rods 22 are rotatably installed on the mounting disk 10 and extend along the radial direction of the mounting disk 10, and the two screw rods 22 of each pair are arranged opposite to each other. The first grasping mechanism 3 and the second grasping mechanism 4 are respectively connected with each screw rod 22, and the grasping mechanisms corresponding to the two screw rods 22 of each pair are the same; the screw rods 22 and the output end of the rotating device 21 are matched with bevel gear transmission, so that each screw rod 22 drives the first grasping mechanism 3 and the second grasping mechanism 4 to move closer to or away from each other under the drive of the rotating device 21.
[0031] It should be known that the specific structure and working principle of the rotating device 21 are well-known technologies for those skilled in the art, so they will not be elaborated in detail here; the common rotating device 21 includes a motor, a rotating cylinder and a rotating hydraulic cylinder, etc., which can be selected according to the actual needs of those skilled in the art. In this embodiment, a motor is preferably used. The number of screw rods 22 is the same as the total number of the first grasping mechanism 3 and the second grasping mechanism 4. In order to grasp stably, the first grasping mechanism 3 and the second grasping mechanism 4 have at least one pair, so the number of screw rods 22 is at least two pairs. Each screw rod 22 is installed with a secondary bevel gear 220 at the end near the center of the mounting plate 10, and a main bevel gear 210 is installed at the output end of the rotating device 21. The main bevel gear 210 can be meshed with all the secondary bevel gears 220, so that the rotating device 21 can synchronously drive each screw rod 22 to rotate at the same time, thereby driving the first grasping mechanism 3 and the second grasping mechanism 4 to perform synchronous action.
[0032] In this embodiment, there are many specific structures of the first gripping mechanism 3 that can achieve the above functions. For the sake of easy understanding, a specific structure will be described in detail below. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the number of the first grasping mechanism 3 is a pair, and the first grasping mechanism 3 includes an extension arm 31 and a first clamping claw 32. One end of the extension arm 31 is in transmission cooperation with the screw rod 22 in the driving assembly 2, and the other end extends downward to the bottom of the second grasping mechanism 4 and is used to install the first clamping claw 32. The extension arm 31 is arranged obliquely in the vertical direction, and the extension arms 31 corresponding to the two first grasping mechanisms 3 are arranged in parallel, so that the center of the clamping area formed by the two first grasping mechanisms 3 through the first clamping claw 32 deviates from the center of the clamping area of the second grasping mechanism 4.
[0033] It is understandable that the extension wall 31 can be tilted as a whole or partially, as long as there is a horizontal gap between the midpoint of the interval between the two second clamping jaws 32 and the midpoint of the clamping area of the second gripping mechanism 4. The specific structure and working principle of the first clamping jaw 32 are well known to those skilled in the art, so they will not be elaborated here.
[0034] In this embodiment, the specific structure and working principle of the second grabbing mechanism 4 are well-known to those skilled in the art. For ease of understanding, a detailed description will be given below using one specific structure. Figure 4 As shown, the second gripping mechanism 4 includes a moving seat 41, a rotating rod 44 and a second clamping claw 45; the moving seat 41 can be matched and connected with the corresponding screw rod 22 in the driving assembly 2, and the rotating rod 44 is rotatably mounted on the moving seat 41 and one end is used to connect the second clamping claw 45. The rotating rod 44 and the mounting plate 10 are matched through a deflection structure, so that the moving seat 41 drives the second clamping claw 45 under the drive of the driving assembly 2 to complete the gripping of the tire, and the rotating rod 44 drives the second clamping claw 45 and the gripped tire to deflect at a set angle under the drive of the deflection structure.
[0035] It should be known that the specific number of the second gripping mechanisms 4 can be selected according to the actual needs of those skilled in the art, for example Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the number of the second gripping mechanisms 4 is a pair, and the first gripping mechanisms 3 and the second gripping mechanisms 4 can be spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the mounting plate 10, and the central angle of the interval between any adjacent first gripping mechanisms 3 and second gripping mechanisms 4 is 90°. The specific structure of the second clamping jaw 45 is the same as that of the first clamping jaw 32, which are both well-known technologies to those skilled in the art, and therefore will not be elaborated on in detail here.
[0036] It should be noted that when the wheel hub and the tire are eccentrically loosened and placed, the tire can tilt under the action of its own eccentric gravity, but the tilting process of the tire is not stable, and the tire may be separated from the wheel hub during the tilting process. Therefore, in this embodiment, the tire can be directly tilted, so that when the tire is placed, the tire will fall to the upper end surface of the wheel hub in a tilted posture. At this time, part of the edge of the wheel hub extends to the installation area in the center of the tire. This contour can limit the tire so that the tire will not deviate, thereby ensuring the placement stability between the wheel hub and the tire.
[0037] In this embodiment, Figure 4As shown, the rotating rod 44 is elastically rotatably mounted on the moving seat 41 through the torsion spring 46; the deflection structure includes a deflection groove set on the surface of the rotating rod 44 and a second guide rod 431 elastically slidably mounted on the mounting plate 10 through the second spring 432, and the second guide rod 431 is slidably matched with the deflection groove. When all the rotating rods 44 approach each other to grab the tire, the second guide rod 431 can slide along the deflection groove and keep the rotating rod 44 stationary relative to the moving seat 41, and the torsion spring 46 is in an energy storage state during this process. When the rotating rod 44 completes the clamping of the tire, the second guide rod 431 slides along the deflection groove under the reset elastic force of the torsion spring 46 to drive the rotating rod 44 to deflect at a set angle.
[0038] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the deflection slot includes a first slot segment 441, a second slot segment 442, a third slot segment 443 and a fourth slot segment 444; the extension direction of the first slot segment 441 and the third slot segment 443 is parallel to the axial direction of the rotating rod 44, and the first slot segment 441 and the third slot segment 443 are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction of the rotating rod 44, and the length of the first slot segment 441 is longer than that of the third slot segment 443. The ends of the first slot segment 441 and the third slot segment 443 away from the second clamping jaw 45 are flush and connected through the second slot segment 442, and the ends of the first slot segment 441 and the third slot segment 443 close to the second clamping jaw 45 are connected through the inclined fourth slot segment 444. The depth of the connection position of the first groove section 441 and the second groove section 442 is consistent; the depth of the connection position of the second groove section 442 and the third groove section 443 can be consistent, or the depth of the third groove section 443 can be greater than the depth of the second groove section 443; the depth of the third groove section 443 and the fourth groove section 444 at the connection position is consistent; the depth of the first groove section 441 is greater than the depth of the fourth groove section 444.
[0039] Initially, the second guide rod 431 is located at one end of the first slot section 441 close to the second clamping claw 45 , and at this time, the torsion spring 46 is in an energy storage state.
[0040] When the second gripping mechanism 4 grips the tire, the multiple second gripping mechanisms 4 approach each other under the drive of the screw rod 22. At this time, the second guide rod 431 will slide toward the second groove segment 442 relative to the first groove segment 441. Until the tire is gripped, the second guide rod 431 has not yet reached the connection position between the first groove segment 441 and the second groove segment 442.
[0041] Then, when the first grasping mechanism 3 grasps the wheel hub, the second guide rod 431 can continue to slide along the first slot section 441 toward the second slot section 442 until the first grasping mechanism 3 completes grasping the wheel hub and the second guide rod 431 reaches the end of the first slot section 441, i.e., the initial end of the second slot section 442; at this time, the rotating rod 44 will rotate at a set angle under the restoring elastic force of the torsion spring 46, so that the second guide rod 431 slides along the second slot section 442 toward the third slot section 443. When the rotating rod 44 rotates, the second clamping claw 45 can drive the clamped tire to rotate synchronously.
[0042] After the tire is deflected and the control arm 1 drives the grasped wheel hub and tire to reach the specified assembly position, the driving assembly 2 can drive the first grasping mechanism 3 and the second grasping mechanism 4 to release the wheel hub and tire in sequence. In this process, the second guide rod 431 first slides along the third slot section 443 and then slides along the fourth slot section 444.
[0043] During the sliding of the second guide rod 431 along the third groove section 443, the first gripping mechanism 3 completes the loosening of the wheel hub, and the second gripping mechanism 4 can maintain the tilted posture of the tire and relax until the second gripping mechanism 4 completely loosens the tire, so that the tire is placed on the wheel hub in a tilted posture.
[0044] When the second guide rod 431 slides along the fourth slot section 444 toward the first slot section 441 , the rotating rod 44 will perform a reset rotation and compress the torsion spring 46 to store energy again to facilitate tire deflection in the next grabbing process.
[0045] Those skilled in the art should know that the wheel hub has different sizes such as 19 inches, 21 inches and 22 inches. The tire sizes corresponding to different wheel hubs may be different, and the same size wheel hub may also be installed with tires of different sizes. Therefore, in this embodiment, the position of at least one of the second clamping jaw 45 or the first clamping jaw 32 can be adjusted to meet the assembly requirements of different wheel hubs and tires. For ease of understanding, in this embodiment, the position of the second clamping jaw 45 is preferably adjusted.
[0046] Specifically, Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the second gripping mechanism 4 also includes an adjustment seat 42; the adjustment seat 42 is slidably mounted with the slide rail 101 provided on the mounting plate 10 through the slide rail groove 425 provided on the upper end surface, and the adjustment seat 42 and the mounting plate 10 can also be connected by a screw. When the position of the second gripping mechanism 4 needs to be adjusted, the adjustment seat 42 can be driven to slide along the radial direction of the mounting plate 10 by rotating the screw, so as to adapt to the gripping of tires of different models. Due to the setting of the adjustment seat 42, the second guide rod 431 can be installed on the adjustment seat 42 to ensure that the rotating rod 44 can stably deflect at any adjustment position of the adjustment seat 42.
[0047] In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the tire can deflect stably, it is generally necessary to set the upper and lower intervals between the clamping area of the tire and the wheel hub, that is, the tire still does not interfere with the wheel hub after tilting. However, this also results in a certain amount of falling space between the tire and the wheel hub during placement. Since the tire is made of rubber and has a certain elasticity, it may cause a certain amount of jumping when the tire descends and touches the wheel hub. Therefore, after the tire deflects, the distance between the tire and the wheel hub can be shortened so that the tire is directly located on the wheel hub after being loosened to reduce or avoid the occurrence of jumping.
[0048] Specifically, the movable seat 41 can be set to be vertically telescopic, and the movable seat 41 and the adjustment seat 42 are coordinated through a traction structure; when the second clamp 45 completes the gripping of the tire, the movable seat 41 can drive the second clamp 45 and the gripped tire vertically downward through the traction structure to approach the wheel hub gripped by the first gripping mechanism 3.
[0049] In this embodiment, there are many specific structures of the traction structure that can achieve the above functions. For the sake of easy understanding, the following will be described in detail using one specific structure. Figure 4 As shown, the moving seat 41 includes a first moving block 411 and a second moving block 413 that are vertically slidably connected. The first moving block 411 is used to cooperate with the driving assembly 2, and the second moving block 413 is used to install the rotating rod 44. The traction structure includes a first guide rod 414 that slides horizontally elastically on the second moving block 413, and a traction groove provided on the vertical surface of the adjustment seat 42. The first guide rod 414 slides with the traction groove. The traction groove is a trapezoidal structure, so that when the first guide rod 414 slides along the traction groove, the second moving block 413 moves vertically relative to the first moving block 411.
[0050] It should be noted that in order to ensure that the second moving block 413 can stably move vertically downward, a first spring 412 can be installed between the first moving block 411 and the second moving block 413, that is, a vertical elastic expansion and contraction arrangement is performed between the first moving block 411 and the second moving block 413. The installation method of the first guide rod 414 is similar to that of the second guide rod 431, so it will not be elaborated in detail here.
[0051] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the traction groove includes a first slide groove 421, a second slide groove 422, a third slide groove 423 and a fourth slide groove 424. The first slide groove 421 and the third slide groove 423 are arranged horizontally, and one end of the first slide groove 421 and the third slide groove 423 close to the clamping area is flush and connected through the vertically arranged second slide groove 422, and the other end of the first slide groove 421 and the third slide groove 423 is connected through the inclined fourth slide groove 424, and the depth of the first slide groove 421 at the connection position is greater than the depth of the fourth slide groove 424.
[0052] When the second gripping mechanism 4 grips tires that are close to each other, the first guide rod 414 can slide along the first slide groove 421 from the connection position between the first slide groove 421 and the fourth slide groove 424, and the first spring 412 is in an energy storage state.
[0053] When the second gripping mechanism 4 completes the gripping and deflection of the tire, the first guide rod 414 slides to the connection position of the first slide groove 421 and the second slide groove 422, and then the second moving block 413 will move vertically downward along the second slide groove 422 under the elastic force of the first spring 412 and its own gravity, thereby driving the clamped tire to approach the wheel hub.
[0054] When the second gripping mechanism 4 releases the tire, the first guide rod 414 can first slide along the third slide groove 423 to adapt to the sliding process of the second guide rod 431 along the third groove section 443. During this process, the height of the tire can be ensured to remain unchanged, so that the tire can be placed with a gap close to the wheel hub.
[0055] After the tire is placed, the first guide rod 414 can slide along the fourth slide groove 424 to the first slide groove 421 for reset; during this process, the second moving block 413 moves vertically upward and drives the first spring 412 to deform and store energy again.
