The complex mechanical structure leads to high maintenance costs and difficulties. The present invention utilizes multiple parts to reduce the shock of the industrial robot arm while it is working. The base bears the weight of the entire arm, the weight of the end effector, and various dynamic loads generated during operation.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a shock absorbing device for a welding industrial robot arm, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. The shock absorbing device for the welding industrial robot arm, when the welding industrial robot arm is used, the base is fixed on the mounting platform, wherein the shock absorbing cylinder on the top of the base is installed with a second spring inside, and a plurality of shock absorbing columns are fixed on the bottom end surface of the mechanical pad at the bottom end of the mechanical base, the shock absorbing column one is installed inside the shock absorbing cylinder and the top of the second spring is in contact with the bottom end surface of the shock absorbing column one, when the base is fixed on the mounting platform, the base must bear the weight of the entire arm and various dynamic loads generated during work and vibrations from the ground, and at the same time, the vibrations will be transmitted to the mechanical arm through the base, and when the end effector performs welding work, due to the action of inertia force, the base will also be subjected to reaction force and vibrate, so the vibration This causes errors in welding and inaccurate welding positions of the end effector at one end of the robotic arm, affecting the normal operation of each component. Due to the presence of the second spring, the impact force generated by the vibration will cause the spring to elastically deform, and the energy generated by the vibration will begin to be converted and released. When the vibration force disappears or weakens, the second spring will try to restore its original shape and length based on its own elastic restoring force. In this process, the elastic potential energy stored in the second spring will gradually be converted into other forms of energy. Part of it may be dissipated in the surrounding environment in the form of heat energy, and the other part will push the robotic arm back to a relatively stable equilibrium position, thereby effectively reducing shock to the mechanical base and the robotic arm.

[0017] 2. The shock absorbing device for the welding industrial robot arm, if the mechanical base and the mechanical arm do not need shock absorption, multiple top bolts are used to respectively correspond to the top threaded rod threads of the base top and the sliding shell, so that the mechanical pad at the bottom of the mechanical base and the top threaded rod component at the top of the base can be tightly connected together to provide a firm fixing effect. At the same time, the ability of the lower friction rubber and the upper friction rubber to absorb shock can be used to effectively reduce vibration and shock during equipment operation, thereby protecting other components from damage. At the same time, by adjusting the tightness of the top bolts and nuts and the top threaded rods, precise positioning between components can be achieved to ensure the accuracy of the connection between the base and the mechanical pad.

[0018] 3. The shock absorbing device for the welding industrial robot arm, when the end effector vibrates during the welding process, no matter it is caused by the welding process itself or by the deviation of the robot arm's motion trajectory or the change of acceleration, the vibration will be transmitted to the connection part of the end effector. When the end effector needs to be damped, all the fixing rods are removed to loosen the shock absorbing column 2. At the same time, multiple first springs are used to dampen the connection part between the robot arm and the rotating connecting block to prevent the end effector from having inaccurate welding position due to the large motion trajectory of the robot arm during the welding process, resulting in unsatisfactory welding products.

[0041] Working principle: When using the welding industrial robot arm, the base 1 is fixed on the mounting platform, wherein the second spring 12 is installed inside the shock-absorbing cylinder 16 on the top of the base 1, and a plurality of shock-absorbing columns 21 are fixed on the bottom end surface of the mechanical pad 17 at the bottom end of the mechanical base 3. The shock-absorbing column 21 is installed inside the shock-absorbing cylinder 16 and the top of the second spring 12 fits with the bottom end surface of the shock-absorbing column 21. When the base 1 is fixed on the mounting platform, the base 1 must bear the weight of the entire arm and various dynamic loads generated during work and vibrations from the ground. At the same time, the vibrations will be transmitted to the mechanical arm 4 through the base 1. When the end effector 6 performs welding work, due to the action of inertia, the base 1 will also be subjected to reaction force and vibrate, so it is affected The vibration causes the end effector 6 at one end of the robot arm 4 to make mistakes during welding and the welding position is inaccurate, affecting the normal operation of each component. Due to the existence of the second spring 12, the impact force generated by the vibration will cause the spring to undergo elastic deformation, and the energy generated by the vibration will begin to be converted and released. When the vibration force disappears or weakens, the second spring 12 will try to restore its original shape and length based on its own elastic restoring force. In this process, the elastic potential energy stored in the second spring 12 will gradually be converted into other forms of energy, part of which may be dissipated in the surrounding environment in the form of heat energy, and the other part will push the robot arm 4 back to a relatively stable equilibrium position, thereby effectively protecting the mechanical base 3 and the robot arm 4. Effective shock absorption, if the mechanical base 3 and the mechanical arm 4 do not need shock absorption, a plurality of top bolts 10 are used to respectively correspond to the top of the base 1 and the top threaded rod 14 inside the sliding shell 2, so that the mechanical pad 17 at the bottom of the mechanical base 3 and the top threaded rod 14 at the top of the base 1 can be tightly connected together to provide a firm fixing effect. At the same time, the fit of the lower friction rubber 15 and the upper friction rubber 20 can absorb the impact, which can effectively reduce the vibration and impact during the operation of the equipment, thereby protecting other components from damage. At the same time, by adjusting the tightness of the top bolts 10, the nuts 11 and the top threaded rod 14, the precise positioning between the components can be achieved to ensure the connection between the base 1 and the mechanical pad 17 Accuracy. When the end effector 6 vibrates during the welding process, whether it is caused by the welding process itself or by the deviation of the movement trajectory of the robot arm 4 or the change of acceleration, these vibrations will be transmitted to the connection part of the end effector 6. When the end effector 6 needs to be damped, some fixing rods 9 are removed to loosen the shock absorbing column 2 31. At the same time, multiple first springs 8 are used to dampen the connection part between the robot arm 4 and the rotating connection block 5 to prevent the end effector 6 from causing inaccurate welding position due to the large movement trajectory of the robot arm 4 during welding, resulting in unfavorable welding products. If the end effector 6 does not need to be damped, the fixing rods 9 are used to limit and fix the corresponding limit holes 1 26 and the limit holes 2 34 respectively.A friction plate 29 is fixed on the connecting column 28 to facilitate the rotation of the connecting block 5, wherein the friction plate 29 can absorb the vibration and impact generated during the movement, and reduce the resonance and fatigue of the end effector 6 and its connecting parts.
