Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of logistics equipment, and in particular to a logistics handling manipulator grasping device. Background Art

[0002] With the booming development of the modern logistics industry, the degree of automation and efficiency of cargo handling have become key competitive advantages. With the rapid rise of e-commerce and the large-scale development of the manufacturing industry, the cargo throughput of logistics centers has increased dramatically, which has put forward higher requirements for the accuracy, adaptability and intelligence level of the handling manipulator gripping device. Efficient and accurate gripping equipment can speed up the sorting and transportation of goods, reduce labor costs, and improve the overall efficiency of logistics operations to meet the growing market demand and the service commitment of fast delivery.

[0003] There are many problems with the current logistics handling manipulator grasping devices on the market. The clamping structure of many grasping devices is relatively fixed and single, and cannot flexibly adapt to goods of different shapes, sizes and materials, which limits their scope of application. In addition, some devices lack effective sensing and feedback mechanisms, making it difficult to accurately judge the position and status of the goods during the grasping process, and are prone to unstable grasping, falling and damaging goods. In addition, some devices have limited adjustment functions, making it difficult to quickly and accurately adjust the clamping spacing and angles, resulting in low work efficiency and unable to meet the high-speed, efficient and high-precision operation requirements of modern logistics.

[0004] Traditional logistics handling robot gripping devices usually pre-set fixed spacing and angles of the clamping device according to the approximate size of common goods. In actual operation, the gripping device is moved to the top of the goods by the movement of the robot arm, and then the gripping action is performed directly. There is a lack of effective identification and response measures for the material and specific shape of the goods, and a unified gripping force and method are often used. Moreover, during the gripping process, if the position of the goods is slightly deviated or the shape is irregular, the gripping strategy cannot be automatically adjusted in time, and manual intervention or re-operation is required, which seriously affects the handling efficiency and accuracy of the operation.

[0005] The lack of flexibility in gripping in existing technologies means that when faced with diverse goods, either the gripping cannot be done or the gripping effect is poor, causing damage to the goods and interruption of the logistics process, increasing operating costs and the risk of customer complaints. The lack of a precise sensing feedback mechanism leads to inaccurate gripping positions, which can easily lead to safety accidents and also reduce the accuracy and efficiency of cargo handling. The limitations of the adjustment function make it difficult to quickly adapt to different goods and cannot meet the rapidly changing operating scenarios in the logistics industry, hindering the further development of logistics automation and intelligent upgrades.

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0032] The following describes an embodiment of the present invention based on its overall structure.

[0034] Furthermore, a connecting piece 5 is rotatably provided at the bottom of the mounting block 4, a first connecting rod 7 is provided at the bottom of the connecting piece 5, the other end of the first connecting rod 7 is connected to the second connecting rod 8, the other end of the second connecting rod 8 is connected to the clamping device, a control shaft 6 is provided on one side of the connecting piece 5 to cooperate with the first connecting rod 7, the clamping device includes a connecting shaft 17, a first clamping device 9, a second clamping device 12 and a third clamping device 14 are provided on the connecting shaft 17 at a certain angle, a telescopic device 10 is provided on the connecting shaft 17 to cooperate with the first clamping device 9, a connecting port 13 is provided on one side of the connecting shaft 17 to cooperate with the first clamping device 9, and the first clamping device 9, the second clamping device 12 and the third clamping device 14 are adjusted by the connecting shaft 17 Angle, according to the actual use requirements, the corresponding clamping device is adjusted for clamping. In coordination with this, the sensing device body 16 is set into a cavity structure, and a mounting plate 27 is movably arranged in the sensing device body 16. A first conductor 21 is arranged on the top of the mounting plate 27, and a second conductor 26 is arranged on the top of the sensing device body 16. A sensing rod 19 is arranged at the bottom of the mounting plate 27, and the other end of the sensing rod 19 extends outside the sensing device body 16. A sensing head 18 is arranged at the bottom of the sensing rod 19. The sensing head is mainly used to detect the material. The first conductor 21 and the second conductor 26 are arranged to test the change in pressure generated when the sensing rod 19 contacts the object. Combined with the sensing head, the material of the logistics item is judged to select the corresponding clamping device.

[0035] Furthermore, a second spring 22 is provided on the top of the mounting plate 27, and the second spring 22 is connected to the top of the sensing device body 16. After the detection of an object is completed, the mounting plate 27 is reset by the second spring 22, so as to perform the next measurement.

[0036] The guide groove 15 is provided with a first spring 20 in cooperation with the guide block 11. The first spring 20 is arranged on a side of the guide block 11 away from the connecting rope 24. Through the first spring 20, the guide block 11 is reset after losing control of the connecting rope 24. The guide block 11 is provided with a connecting buckle 25 in cooperation with the connecting rope 24. The connection between the guide block 11 and the connecting rope 24 is achieved through the connecting buckle 25.

[0037] In actual use, first conduct a comprehensive inspection of the logistics handling manipulator grasping device to ensure that the mounting top plate 1 is firmly installed on the manipulator arm and that all components are tightly connected without looseness. Check whether there are any debris in the guide groove 15 that hinders the movement of the guide block 11, whether the connecting rope 24 is intact and firmly connected, whether the control device 2 can normally control the rotation of the central shaft 23, and whether all components in the induction device body 16 are working normally, including the first conductor 21, the second conductor 26, the induction rod 19 and the induction head 18, etc., to ensure that the equipment is in good operating condition;

[0038] When the robot approaches the cargo to be transported, the induction head 18 of the induction device body 16 first contacts the cargo surface. As the contact occurs, the induction rod 19 is pressed upward to push the mounting plate 27, and the distance and pressure relationship between the first conductor 21 on the mounting plate 27 and the second conductor 26 at the top of the induction device body 16 changes. Based on this change, combined with the preliminary detection of the cargo material by the induction head 18, the system automatically determines the material characteristics and approximate shape of the cargo, and thus selects a suitable clamping device, such as the first clamping device 9, the second clamping device 12 or the third clamping device 14.

[0039] According to the selected clamping device, the control device 2 is started, driving the central shaft 23 to rotate, and the connecting rope 24 on the central shaft 23 is wound or loosened accordingly. When the connecting rope 24 is wound, the guide block 11 is pulled to move in the guide groove 15, driving the connection structure composed of the mounting block 4 and the connecting member 5 below, the first connecting rod 7 and the second connecting rod 8 to extend or contract accordingly, thereby adjusting the interval between the clamping devices to match the size of the goods. At the same time, the angles of the first clamping device 9, the second clamping device 12 and the third clamping device 14 are adjusted by connecting the shaft 17 and the telescopic device 10 provided in conjunction with the first clamping device 9 to ensure that the goods can be accurately grasped.

[0040] After the adjustment of the gripping device is completed, the manipulator continues to descend so that the selected gripping device is in close contact with the surface of the goods, and then the gripping device firmly clamps the goods through the telescopic device 10 or other driving mechanism. After confirming that the goods are stably grasped, the manipulator moves the goods to the designated location, such as a shelf, a transport vehicle, etc., according to the preset path.

[0041] When the goods are placed at the destination, the clamping device releases the goods, the control device 2 reverses the central shaft 23, loosens the connecting rope 24, and the guide block 11 returns to the initial position under the action of the first spring 20 in the guide groove 15, thereby driving the clamping device to reset. At the same time, the mounting plate 27 in the sensing device body 16 also returns to its original position under the action of the second spring 22, ready for the next cargo detection and grabbing operation.

[0042] Although an embodiment of the present invention has been shown and described, this specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the invention. The specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described may be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications, substitutions and variations to the embodiments without creative contributions as needed without departing from the principles and purpose of the present invention. However, as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.
