The T-plate 21 cooperates with the installation slide rail 2 and is used to install the slide 9. The side surface of the installation slide rail 2 is slidably connected to the limit block 22. A limit groove 91 is provided on the side surface of the slide 9. The limit groove 91 is adapted to the limit block 22. The limit block 22 cooperates with the limit groove 91 and is used to fix the box body 8 and the machine body 1 together. A support block 221 is slidably connected inside the limit block 22. A shock-absorbing spring 222 is provided between the support block 221 and the limit block 22. The limit block 22 cooperates with the shock-absorbing spring 222 and is used for shock absorption of the box body 8. A slider 33 is provided on the surface of the adjustment plate 3. An oblique groove is provided on the surface of the slider 33. The oblique groove is slidably connected to the support block 221. The slider 33 cooperates with the support block 221 to drive the limit block 22 to move.

[0036] A supporting side panel 5 is provided on the surface of the machine body 1 for fixed installation of the box body 8. A plurality of locking rods 6 are provided on the surface of the supporting side panel 5. A buffer spring is provided between the locking rod 6 and the supporting side panel 5 for buffer installation of the box body 8. A retaining ring 61 is slidably connected to the surface of the locking rod 6. A plurality of locking holes 10 are provided on the side surface of the box body 8. The locking holes 10 correspond to the locking rod 6. The locking rod 6 cooperates with the locking holes 10 for installation of the supporting side panel 5 and the box body 8.

[0037] The snap ring 61 is composed of a plurality of clamping blocks, and there are multiple groups of the snap rings 61, which are evenly distributed inside the locking rod 6. There are multiple groups of locking blocks 101, which are adapted to the multiple groups of snap rings 61. The cross sections of the clamping blocks and the locking blocks 101 are both triangular. The locking blocks 101 cooperate with the snap ring 61 to lock the locking rod 6 in the locking hole 10. The inner surface of the locking hole 10 is slidably connected with the locking blocks 101, and the locking blocks 101 are adapted to the snap ring 61. The cooperation between the locking blocks 101 and the snap ring 61 is used for locking and installing the locking rod 6 and the locking hole 10.

[0038] The internal rotation of the locking rod 6 is connected with an adjusting rod 7 for driving the adjusting dial 71 to rotate. The surface of the adjusting rod 7 is provided with an adjusting dial 71. The surface of the adjusting dial 71 is provided with an arc-shaped slide groove. The inner surface of the card block is provided with a cylindrical block. The arc-shaped slide groove is adapted to the cylindrical block. The arc-shaped slide groove cooperates with the cylindrical block to control the movement of the card block.

[0039] Working principle: Before the box 8 is installed on the surface of the body 1, the T-plate 21 is retracted inside the mounting slide rail 2. At this time, the slide rail 9 on the lower surface of the box 8 can be matched with the mounting slide rail 2 by horizontal sliding, or the slide rail 9 can be directly matched with the mounting slide rail 2 from top to bottom, so that the box 8 can be installed on the surface of the body 1.

[0040] After the slide 9 cooperates with the mounting slide rail 2, the box body 8 is moved horizontally, and the locking hole 10 on the side surface of the box body 8 is moved toward the direction of the locking rod 6, and the locking rod 6 will enter the locking hole 10. When the locking rod 6 completely enters the locking hole 10, the adjusting rod 7 is rotated by the relevant driving device, and the adjusting rod 7 drives the adjusting dial 71 to rotate. The arc-shaped groove on the surface of the adjusting dial 71 will cooperate with the cylindrical block on the surface of the block in the retaining ring 61, pushing the block to move toward the outer surface of the locking rod 6, and the block is pushed out of the outer surface of the locking rod 6 and contacts with the locking block 101. The locking block 101 limits the movement of the locking rod 6 through the block, thereby installing the box body 8 and the machine body 1 together.

[0041] Start the hydraulic rod 4 and use it to push the adjustment plate 3 upward. The toothed plate 31 on the surface of the adjustment plate 3 will mesh with the transmission gear 32, driving the toothed plate 31 on the surface of the T-plate 21 to move, and driving the T-plate 21 to move together, thereby pushing the T-plate 21 out of the side surface of the mounting rail 2. The T-plate 21 and the mounting rail 2 will form a T-shaped plate, thereby restricting the slideway 9 to the surface of the mounting rail 2.

[0042] When the adjustment plate 3 moves, it will drive the slider 33 to move together. The inclined groove on the surface of the slider 33 will push the support block 221 to move. The support block 221 drives the limit block 22 to move toward the outer surface of the installation slide rail 2 and cooperate with the limit groove 91 on the surface of the slide 9, so as to further limit the horizontal movement of the box 8. When the limit block 22 cooperates with the limit groove 91, the shock-absorbing spring 222 will damp the box 8 through the limit block 22.

[0043] The automatic installation method of the robot cargo box includes the following installation steps:

[0044] S1. Match the slideway 9 with the mounting rail 2 by horizontal sliding or vertical landing;

[0045] S2, horizontally move the box 8 to insert the locking rod 6 into the locking hole 10, when the locking rod 6 completely enters the locking hole 10;

[0046] S3, the adjusting rod 7 is rotated by the driving device of the adjusting rod 7, and the adjusting rod 7 drives the adjusting dial 71 to rotate, and the arc-shaped slide groove on the surface of the adjusting dial 71 cooperates with the cylindrical block on the surface of the block in the clamping ring 61, pushing the block to move toward the outer surface of the locking rod 6;

[0047] S4, the card block and the locking block 101 are in contact with each other, and the locking block 101 limits the movement of the locking rod 6 through the card block, so that the box body 8 and the machine body 1 are installed together;

[0048] S5, start the hydraulic rod 4, use the hydraulic rod 4 to push the adjustment plate 3 to move upward, the adjustment plate 3 and the toothed plate 31 on the surface of the T plate 21 cooperate with the transmission gear 32 to push the T plate 21 out of the side surface of the mounting slide rail 2;

[0049] S6, the T-plate 21 and the mounting rail 2 will form a T-shaped plate, thereby limiting the slideway 9 to the surface of the mounting rail 2;

[0050] S7. The movement of the slider 33 will push the support block 221 to move together. The support block 221 drives the limit block 22 to move toward the outer surface of the installation slide rail 2, and cooperates with the limit groove 91 on the surface of the slide 9 to further limit the movement of the box 8 in the horizontal direction, thereby completing the installation between the box 8 and the body 1.
