Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0020] Example
[0021] See also Figure 1-3The present invention provides the following technical solutions: a concrete spraying mechanical arm, the driving mechanism used in the driving mechanism mechanical arm is electrically driven, which is characterized by convenient power supply, fast response, large driving force (the weight of the joint type has reached 400kg), convenient signal detection, transmission and processing, and can adopt a variety of flexible control schemes. The arm includes a gun head fixing device 8, a support rod 13, a bottom plate 10, a universal wheel 11 and a connecting device 14. A slewing mechanism 15 is arranged below the gun head fixing device 8. The slewing mechanism 15 includes a slewing support device and a slewing drive device. The slewing support device includes a swing arm 6, and the slewing drive device includes a gun head spiral motor 7 and an arm left and right rotation motor 4. The driving motor adopts a stepping motor, and a DC servo motor (AC) is the main driving method. Due to the high speed of the motor, a reduction mechanism (such as harmonic drive, RV cycloid pinwheel drive, gear drive, spiral drive and multi-rod mechanism) must be used. Some manipulators have begun to use high-torque, low-speed motors without a reduction mechanism for direct drive (DD), which can simplify the mechanism and improve control accuracy. The concrete spray gun is fixed on a circular gun head fixing device 8. The rear end face of the arm left and right rotation motor 4 is provided with a support rod 13, and fixed hooks 9 are provided on the crossbeams on both sides above the support rod 13. The gun head spiral motor 7 can make the gun head rotate 6360° around the swing arm, and the joint motor 5 can make the arm move vertically 180° up and down. The arm left and right rotation motor 4 allows the arm to rotate left and right. A joint motor 5 is arranged at the rear of the swing arm 6, and an arm left and right rotation motor 4 is arranged below the joint motor 5. A fixed hook 9 is fixed on an aerial work platform at a height of 10-80 meters or according to the height of the building. A base plate 10 is arranged below the support rod 13, and a connecting device 14 is arranged below the base plate 10. A universal wheel 11 is arranged on the inner side of the connecting device 14. A PLC 12 is arranged on one side of the fixed hook 9, and a pulse generator 3 and a PLC display 2 are arranged on the front end surface of the PLC 12. A control handle 1 is arranged above the PLC 12.

[0026] Smooth movement and accurate positioning:
[0027] The rotary mechanism 15 usually adopts a high-precision transmission mechanism such as a worm gear pair, a gear pair, etc., which can achieve smooth rotary motion and reduce impact and vibration during the motion.
[0028] Versatile and widely applicable:
[0029] The rotary mechanism 15 is not only suitable for simple rotational motion, but can also cooperate with other mechanisms to realize complex motion forms, such as continuous rotary feeding, indexing, etc.
[0030] Cost Savings:
[0031] The use of the rotary mechanism 15 can simplify the work process, reduce manual intervention, and thus reduce production costs.
[0032] Easy operation and maintenance:
[0033] With the development of technology, the operation interface of the slewing mechanism 15 is becoming more and more user-friendly, and the operator can complete the control of the slewing mechanism 15 through simple operations.
[0034] The maintenance of the slewing mechanism 15 is also relatively simple, and a standardized design is usually adopted to facilitate disassembly and replacement of damaged parts.
[0035] Advantages of robotic arm:

Improve safety: The robot arm has no emotions and desires, its behavior patterns and movement rules are relatively fixed and not easily affected by external factors, and has higher safety performance. Industrial robot arms operate in high-risk environments, avoiding safety issues caused by human errors.
[0037] Reduce labor costs: Robotic arms can replace manual labor to perform tasks, reducing labor costs. Robotic arms can replace traditional labor and improve economic efficiency.
[0038] Enhanced durability: The robot arm can continue to work for a long time without being affected by fatigue and emotional fluctuations. The robot arm can continue to perform the same task in the same working environment without fatigue and errors.
[0039] Improved accuracy: The robotic arm can precisely control and perform operations, completing tasks faster and more accurately than humans, ensuring the quality and efficiency of concrete spraying.

The personnel stand on the working platform to control the handle 1 to complete the concrete spraying operation. PLC12 completes specific actions by controlling the motor of each degree of freedom of the manipulator, and at the same time receives information fed back by the sensor to form a stable closed-loop control. The core of the control system is usually composed of a microcontroller such as a single-chip microcomputer or a DSP. The desired functions are realized by programming it. In three-dimensional space, a three-axis controlled motion machine is used to complete the spraying. During the spraying, the construction personnel stand on the working platform and use the control handle to control the translation and adjustment of the concrete spray gun up and down, and change the position and posture of the spray gun according to the working surface. Spraying operation; and control the start and stop of the concrete spray gun.
