Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of material taking devices, and in particular to a multi-station material taking device for a packing robot. Background Art

[0002] A multi-station material taking device for a packing robot is a device applied in a packing robot system, aiming to efficiently and accurately obtain materials from multiple different positions and convey them to the packing station, so as to realize an automated process of multi-station material taking, improve the packing efficiency and quality, save the material taking time, improve the packing efficiency, and reduce the manual labor intensity.

[0003] However, the existing multi-station material taking devices for packing robots have the following disadvantages:

[0004] (1) Most of the existing multi-station material taking devices for packing robots are integrally fixedly arranged. The fixed arrangement may make it difficult for the packing robot body to move and can only take materials at a fixed position. For materials at different positions and layouts, it is difficult to flexibly adjust the material taking point, which limits the operation ability of the packing robot body in a complex environment;

[0005] (2) In most of the existing multi-station material taking devices for packing robots, the hooks on the packing robot body are fixedly arranged and are inconvenient to disassemble and replace. Different packing tasks may require different types, sizes or shapes of hooks to grab materials, resulting in the device being difficult to meet diverse packing requirements and limiting its application in different industries and different product packing scenarios.

[0006] Therefore, the present invention provides a multi-station material taking device for a packing robot. Summary of the Invention

[0007] (1) Technical Problems to be Solved

[0009] (2) Technical Solutions

[0010] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: A multi-station material taking device for a packing robot, comprising fixing blocks. The number of the fixing blocks is two. One side of each fixing block is fixedly connected with a connecting plate. A first cavity is opened inside the fixing block.

A clamping rod is fixedly connected to one side of the second threaded slider.

[0012] Optionally, a transport device body is arranged between the two fixing blocks. A transport belt body is arranged on the surface of the transport device body. A transport device body is arranged between the two fixing blocks, and a transport belt body is arranged on the surface of the transport device body. This structural design enables the materials to be promptly and orderly transported to the packing station after material taking.

[0013] Optionally, a rectangular block is fixedly connected to one side of the transport device body. A bolt is threadedly inserted into the surface of the rectangular block. The rectangular block fixedly connected to one side of the transport device body and the bolt threadedly inserted into its surface provide a convenient and stable installation and fixation method for the transport device body. The transport device body can be flexibly installed on different working platforms or supporting structures through the bolt, adapting to diverse workshop layouts and site conditions. This adjustable installation method not only facilitates the initial setup of the equipment but also enables quick disassembly and reinstallation during later equipment position adjustment or maintenance, reducing the equipment installation, debugging, and maintenance costs.

[0034] In the present invention, the working steps of the device are as follows:

[0035] First step: When multi-station material picking is required, first, the operator starts the first motor 31, and its output end drives the first transmission rod to rotate, thereby causing the rotating rod 32 to rotate, and further causing the first gear 33 fixedly sleeved on the surface of the rotating rod 32 to rotate. Through the meshing of the first gear 33 and the second gear 34, the second gear 34 is driven to rotate. At the same time, the first threaded rod 35 fixedly inserted at the center of the second gear 34 also rotates together. Since the first threaded slider 36 is threadedly sleeved on the surface of the first threaded rod 35, under the action of screw drive, the first threaded slider 36 slides along the chute on the surface of the connecting plate 2, thereby driving the moving block 37 and the packing robot body 4 connected thereto to move horizontally, and can be flexibly adjusted to different picking positions;

[0036] Second step: When the packing task is completed, or when it is necessary to replace the hook 6 to adapt to new packing requirements, start the second motor 71, and the output end of the second motor 71 drives the second transmission rod to rotate. The rotation of the second transmission rod is transmitted to the second threaded rod 72, causing the second threaded rod 72 to start rotating. Since the second threaded slider 73 is threadedly sleeved on the surface of the second threaded rod 72, according to the screw drive principle, as the second threaded rod 72 rotates, the second threaded slider 73 will move in the opposite direction (opposite to the moving direction when the hook 6 is installed) in the sliding groove inside the packing robot body 4. The reverse movement of the second threaded slider 73 drives the clamping rod 74 fixedly connected to one side thereof to move synchronously, causing the clamping rod 74 to gradually withdraw from the card slot on the surface of the hook 6. When the clamping rod 74 is completely disengaged from the card slot, the hook 6 is no longer restricted, and at this time, the hook 6 can be easily removed from the connecting block 5 to complete the disassembly process. The entire disassembly operation is realized through motor drive and screw drive, without the need for complex tools, and the operation is simple and fast, which can efficiently meet the requirements for replacing the hook 6 in different packing tasks.
