DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0023] Now, various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values should be construed as merely exemplary and not as a limitation. Thus, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.
[0027] It should be noted that like reference numerals and letters refer to like items in the following figures, and thus, once an item is defined in one figure, further discussion thereof in subsequent figures is not necessary.
[0028] The present invention provides a handling device, through which flexible grasping and placement of products at any angle can be achieved.
[0029] As Figure 1 shown, the handling device provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes: A first bearing part 1; A clamping member 2, the clamping member 2 includes a connecting member 21, and the connecting member 21 is connected to the first bearing part 1 and can rotate together with the first bearing part 1; An air supply member 3, the air supply member 3 is connected to the first bearing part 1, and the air supply member 3 includes a first air joint 31; The clamping member 2 further includes a rotating member 22, a first driving member 23, and a clamping member 24. The rotating member 22 is rotatably connected to the outer periphery of the connecting member 21, and the rotating member 22 has a connection port 221. When the first air joint 31 forms a fit with the connection port 221, the air supply member 3 is in air circuit communication with the first driving member 23, so that the first driving member 23 can drive the clamping member 24 to perform a clamping action.
[0030] As Figure 1 shown, the first bearing part 1 is the basic support structure of the entire handling device and can be made of a high-strength and lightweight metal material to ensure the stability and durability of the handling device during operation. Installation holes can be provided on the first bearing part 1 for connection to an external rotary drive mechanism to enable rotation of the first bearing part 1.
[0031] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the clamping member 2 can be connected to the first bearing part 1 through the connecting member 21, so that the connecting member 21 can rotate together with the first bearing part 1, thereby enabling the clamping member 24 to be adjusted to a suitable position for flexible grasping of products at different angles. Moreover, the handling device has a simple structure and strong versatility.
[0032] Thus, the first carrier part 1 can drive the connecting part 21 and the clamping part 24 to rotate together, and can cooperate with precise positioning systems such as high-precision encoders and vision positioning systems to quickly and accurately move the clamping part 24 to the target material position. Compared with traditional handling devices, the repeated adjustment time caused by uncoordinated component movements or inaccurate positioning is reduced, the preparation time before material picking is greatly shortened, and the material picking efficiency is significantly improved.
[0033] In one embodiment, one end of the connecting part 21 can be fixedly connected to the first carrier part 1 by bolts, and the other end is rotatably connected to the rotating part 22. At the connection between the connecting part 21 and the first carrier part 1, a reinforcing rib can be provided to enhance the firmness of the connection between the two and prevent loosening or breakage during the operation of the handling device.
[0034] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the rotating part 22 can be installed on the outer periphery of the connecting part 21 through a bearing and can rotate freely around the connecting part 21. The outer shape of the rotating part 22 can be cylindrical, quasi-cylindrical, etc., and its diameter is larger than that of the connecting part 21 to facilitate the assembly of the two.
[0035] A connection port 221 is provided on the rotating part 22. The shape and size of the connection port 221 match the shape and size of the first gas joint 31 on the gas supply component 3, so that the two can form a connection and cooperation. A sealing ring can be provided inside the connection port 221. When the first gas joint 31 cooperates with the connection port 221, the sealing ring can ensure the airtightness of the air path and prevent air leakage.
[0036] In one embodiment, the connection port 221 is usually provided at the end of the rotating part 22 to facilitate the cooperation between the first gas joint 31 on the gas supply component 3 and the connection port 221. Among them, the cooperation formed by the first gas joint 31 and the connection port 221 includes but is not limited to snap-fit and threaded fit. (0]]
[0037] As Figure 3 shown, the first driving part 23 can be a pneumatic driving element, and a standard cylinder is used. The cylinder block of the cylinder is fixedly installed on the connecting plate by bolts, and the movement direction of its piston rod is the same as the clamping direction of the clamping part 24. Quick connectors are respectively provided at the air inlet and air outlet of the cylinder to facilitate connection with the air path pipeline.
[0038] The clamping member 24 is used to grasp the product and can be made of high-strength and wear-resistant plastic or metal materials. The clamping member 24 is in driving connection with the connecting member 21 so as to be able to rotate together with the connecting member 21. The shape of the clamping member 24 is designed according to the shape and size of the product, and common types include jaw type, suction cup type, etc. Taking the jaw type as an example, the clamping member 24 can be composed of two opposite jaws, and anti-slip patterns are arranged on the inner sides of the jaws to increase the friction with the product. The jaws are connected to the piston rod of the cylinder through a connecting rod. When the piston rod of the cylinder moves, it drives the jaws to open and close, realizing the clamping and releasing of the product.
[0039] In one embodiment, two, three or even more clamping members 24 can be provided so as to be able to flexibly grasp multiple products through this handling device.
[0040] In one embodiment, the clamping member 24 can be customized and replaced according to the shapes, sizes and materials of different products. Whether it is a product with a regular shape (such as square, circular, etc.) or an irregularly shaped product (such as special-shaped parts, soft items, etc.), stable clamping can be achieved by replacing the appropriate clamping member 24. This replaceable design enables this handling device to adapt to the picking and placing requirements of a variety of different types of products, greatly improving the versatility of the handling device.
[0041] The air source generator can adopt an air compressor, and its power and displacement are selected according to the working requirements of the handling device. After the air compressor compresses the air, it is transported to the first air joint 31 through an air pipeline. At the outlet of the air compressor, a pressure regulating valve and a filter can be provided. The pressure regulating valve is used to regulate the pressure of the output gas, and the filter is used to filter impurities and moisture in the air to ensure the cleanliness and stability of the gas.
[0042] Among them, the air pipeline can be made of pressure-resistant and corrosion-resistant rubber or plastic pipes, and its inner diameter is selected according to the gas flow rate and pressure. One end of the air pipeline is connected to the outlet of the air compressor, and the other end is connected to the first air joint 31. At the connection of the air pipeline, a clamp or a quick joint can also be provided to ensure the firmness and tightness of the connection.
[0043] The first air joint 31 is an air path connecting component between the air supply component 3 and the clamping component 2 and can adopt a standard pneumatic quick joint. One end of the first air joint 31 is connected to the air pipeline, and the other end can form a fit with the connection port 221 of the rotating member 22. When the first air joint 31 forms a fit with the connection port 221, the air supply component 3 and the clamping component 2 are in air path connection. At this time, the first driving member 23 can drive the clamping member 24 to perform a clamping action; when the first air joint 31 is separated from the connection port 221, the air supply component 3 and the clamping component 2 are not in air path connection, which can prevent gas leakage.
[0044] In addition, in the state where the gas path is connected, the sealed connection between the first gas connector 31 and the connection port 221 can also prevent gas leakage, ensuring that the first driving member 23 can obtain stable pneumatic drive, thereby guaranteeing the normal operation of the clamping member 24. Even during long-term and high-frequency use, good sealing performance can be maintained, avoiding abnormal clamping actions or failures caused by air leakage and improving the overall reliability of the handling device.
[0045] In one embodiment, a one-way valve can also be provided inside the first gas connector 31. When the first gas connector 31 forms a fit with the connection port 221, the one-way valve opens to achieve the connection of the gas path; when the first gas connector 31 is separated from the connection port 221, that is, out of fit, the one-way valve closes to prevent gas leakage.
[0046] In this way, when the first gas connector 31 forms a fit with the connection port 221 of the rotating member 22, the gas supply component 3 and the first driving member 23 are quickly connected in the gas path, and the first driving member 23 can immediately drive the clamping member 24 to perform a clamping action. This fast gas path response mechanism avoids the complex transmission process and possible delays in the traditional mechanical drive method, enabling the clamping action to be completed in an extremely short time.
[0047] Moreover, when clamping is not required, the fit between the first gas connector 31 and the connection port 221 can be disconnected in a timely manner, making the gas path connection convenient and controllable. It can also reduce the risk of the trachea being wound or broken during the process of the first bearing part 1 driving the connecting member 21 and the clamping member 24 to rotate together, thereby improving the reliability of the handling device.
[0048] In addition, in practical applications, the position and angle of the gas supply component 3 can also be adjusted according to different working scenarios and layout requirements to facilitate the layout and connection of the gas path. And when maintenance or upgrading of the handling device is required, the gas path can also be conveniently disconnected and reconnected, improving the adaptability and maintainability of the handling device.
[0049] Optionally, the connection port 221 is a through hole, one side of the through hole is used to form a fit with the first gas connector 31, and the other side of the through hole is connected to the first driving member 23.
[0050] Specifically, the connection port 221 can be a through hole opened on the rotating member 22, which can simplify the opening process of the connection port 221. One side of the through hole can form a fit with the first gas connector 31, and the other side of the through hole can be connected to the first driving member 23 through a trachea to form a gas path of the first gas connector 31 - connection port 221 - trachea - first driving member 23.
[0051] In another embodiment, the connection port 221 may also be a non-through hole formed in the rotating member 22. A trachea is further connected to the rotating member 22. One end of the trachea communicates with the first driving member 23, and the other end of the trachea communicates with the connection port 221, and an air path of the first air joint 31 - connection port 221 - trachea - first driving member 23 can also be formed.
[0052] Optionally, along the assembly direction from the first air joint 31 to the connection port 221, the diameter of the first air joint 31 gradually decreases.
[0053] As Figure 1 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, setting the diameter of the first air joint 31 to gradually decrease makes the cooperation between the first air joint 31 and the connection port 221 tight and convenient, thereby preventing gas leakage, ensuring that the first driving member 23 can obtain stable pneumatic drive, and thus ensuring the normal operation of the clamping member 24. Even during long-term and high-frequency use, good sealing performance can be maintained, avoiding abnormal clamping actions or failures caused by air leakage, and improving the overall reliability of the handling device.
[0054] Optionally, the clamping component 2 further includes a first mounting member 25. The first mounting member 25 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting member 21, and the rotating member 22 is located on the side of the first mounting member 25 away from the clamping member 24.
[0055] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the first mounting member 25 is a mounting plate, and its cross-section can be circular, elliptical, rectangular or other shapes. The first mounting member 25 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting member 21 and fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the connecting member 21, so that the first bearing portion 1 can drive the connecting member 21, the first mounting member 25 and the clamping member 24 to rotate together.
[0056] Among them, setting the rotating member 22 on the side of the first mounting member 25 away from the clamping member 24 can facilitate the cooperation between the first air joint 31 and the connection port 221 on the rotating member 22. And, the rotating member 22 is rotatably sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting member 21, that is, relative rotation is allowed between the rotating member 22 and the connecting member 21. After the air path is connected, when the first bearing portion 1 drives the connecting member 21, the first mounting member 25 and the clamping member 24 to rotate together, the rotating member 22 connected to the air supply component 3 can remain stationary to ensure reliable cooperation between the first air joint 31 and the connection port 221, thereby ensuring the reliability and stability of the air path connection between the clamping component 2 and the air supply component 3.
[0057] Optionally, the clamping member 2 further includes a second mounting member 26 and a third mounting member 27. The first driving member 23 is connected to the second mounting member 26. One side of the third mounting member 27 is connected to the first mounting member 25, and the other side of the third mounting member 27 is connected to the second mounting member 26.
[0058] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the second mounting member 26 is used to carry and mount the first driving member 23. The third mounting member 27 is connected between the first mounting member 25 and the second mounting member 26 to form a power transmission path of the first bearing portion 1 - connecting member 21 - first mounting member 25 - third mounting member 27 - second mounting member 26 - clamping member 24, so that the clamping member 24 can be adjusted to a suitable position to facilitate the flexible grasping of the product.
[0059] In another embodiment, the first mounting member 25 and the third mounting member 27 can be respectively sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting member 21 to form a power transmission path of the first bearing portion 1 - connecting member 21 - first mounting member 25 and third mounting member 27 - second mounting member 26 - clamping member 24, so that the clamping member 24 can be adjusted to a suitable position to facilitate the flexible grasping of the product.
[0060] Optionally, the clamping member 2 further includes an elastic member 28. The elastic member 28 is connected between the second mounting member 26 and the third mounting member 27.
[0061] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the elastic member 28 includes but is not limited to a spring and a spring piece. The elastic member 28 is connected between the second mounting member 26 and the third mounting member 27 to provide a certain floating force by using the elastic force of the elastic member 28, and avoid damage to the handling device caused by hard contact due to errors during material picking.
[0062] In one embodiment, the clamping member 2 further includes a guiding member 29. The guiding member 29 includes but is not limited to a guiding column and a guiding screw. The guiding member 29 passes through the third mounting member 27 and is connected to the second mounting member 26, and the spring is sleeved on the guiding member 29, so that one end of the spring abuts against the second mounting member 26 and the other end of the spring abuts against the third mounting member 27, and a certain floating force can also be provided by using the elastic force of the elastic member 28 to avoid damage to the handling device caused by hard contact due to errors during material picking.
[0063] Optionally, the rotating member 22 is a magnetic member, and the clamping member 2 further includes a magnetic attracting member. The magnetic attracting member is disposed on one side of the first mounting member 25 close to the rotating member 22.
[0064] Specifically, the rotating member 22 is a magnetic member made of a magnetic material, and the magnetic attracting member can be a permanent magnet or an electromagnet, so that there is a magnetic attraction force between the rotating member 22 and the magnetic attracting member. In this way, during the process of the first bearing portion 1 driving the connecting member 21 to rotate, the magnetic attraction force between the rotating member 22 and the magnetic attracting member can prevent the rotating member 22 from shaking or shifting, and can also ensure the stable cooperation between the first air joint 31 and the connection port 221, thereby ensuring the reliability and stability of the air path connection between the clamping member 2 and the air supply member 3.
[0065] In addition, setting the magnetic attraction cooperation between the rotating member 22 and the magnetic attracting member can also facilitate adjusting the rotating member 22 to a proper position so that the connection port 221 thereon forms a cooperation with the first air joint 31, thereby reducing the feeding difficulty of the handling device.
[0066] Optionally, the air supply member 3 further includes a second driving member 32 and a fourth mounting member 33. The driving end of the second driving member 32 is connected to the fourth mounting member 33 and can drive the fourth mounting member 33 to approach or move away from the connection port 221, and the first air joint 31 is located on the fourth mounting member 33.
[0067] Such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown in, the second driving member 32 includes, but is not limited to, a motor and a cylinder. Connecting the output end, that is, the driving end, of the second driving member 32 to the fourth mounting member 33 enables the fourth mounting member 33 to move correspondingly and approach or move away from the connection port 221 under the drive of the second driving member 32, so that the first air joint 31 connected to the fourth mounting member 33 can form a cooperation or a disengagement cooperation with the connection port 221 on the rotating member 22.
[0068] Wherein, the first air joint 31 is arranged on the side of the fourth mounting member 33 away from the second driving member 32, so as to facilitate the first air joint 31 to approach the rotating member 22 and form a cooperation with the connection port 221 on the rotating member 22.
[0069] In one embodiment, the fourth mounting member 33 and the rotating member 22 can be arranged along the height direction, so that the first air joint 31 and the connection port 221 are relatively positioned along the height direction. At this time, the second driving member 32 can drive the fourth mounting member 33 to perform a linear lifting motion, so that the first air joint 31 connected to the fourth mounting member 33 can form a cooperation or a disengagement cooperation with the connection port 221 on the rotating member 22.
[0070] Optionally, the air supply member 3 further includes a fifth mounting member 34. The fifth mounting member 34 is connected to the first bearing portion 1, and the second driving member 32 is connected to the fifth mounting member 34.
[0071] Specifically, the fifth mounting member 34 may include one or more mounting plates, and through the fifth mounting member 34, the air supply component 3 can be connected to the first bearing part 1. Among them, according to actual requirements, the fifth mounting member 34 can be fixedly connected to the first bearing part 1, or the fifth mounting member 34 can be movably connected to the first bearing part 1.
[0072] In one embodiment, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, the fifth mounting member 34 may include a first connecting plate 341 and a second connecting plate 342. The first connecting plate 341 is slidably connected to the first bearing part 1. For example, a sliding groove is provided on one of the first connecting plate 341 and the first bearing part 1, and a sliding block is provided on the other of the first connecting plate 341 and the first bearing part 1. The sliding block can slide in the sliding groove and correspondingly adjust the horizontal position of the air supply component 3. The second connecting plate 342 is perpendicularly connected to the first connecting plate 341 and is used to connect the second driving member 32.
[0073] Among them, the second driving member 32 can be a motor or a cylinder, and the second driving member 32 can also be a sliding member. A sliding groove is provided on one of the second driving member 32 and the second connecting plate 342, and a sliding block is provided on the other of the second driving member 32 and the second connecting plate 342. The sliding block can slide in the sliding groove and correspondingly drive the fourth mounting member 33 to move.
[0074] Optionally, along the assembly direction of the connecting member 21 to the first bearing part 1, the diameter of the connecting member 21 gradually decreases; and / or, the first bearing part 1 includes a bearing shaft 11, and the connecting member 21 is connected to the bearing shaft 11.
[0075] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, setting the diameter of the connecting member 21 to gradually decrease makes the cooperation between the connecting member 21 and the first bearing part 1 tight and convenient, so as to ensure the reliability of the driving force transmission from the first bearing part 1 to the connecting member 21.
[0076] As Figure 1 shown, the bearing shaft 11 is used to connect the connecting member 21 and drive the connecting member 21 and the clamping member 24 to rotate together. The bearing shaft 11 passes through the bearing seat 12, and the bearing seat 12 can be used to carry and connect the air supply component 3 and other structures.
[0077] Optionally, it further includes a second bearing part 4. The second bearing part 4 is connected to the first bearing part 1, and the clamping component 2 and the air supply component 3 can move between the first bearing part 1 and the second bearing part 4.
[0078] As Figure 1As shown, the second bearing part 4 can be the tool carrier of the production equipment, so that the clamping component 2 and the air supply component 3 can be installed on the tool carrier. Driven by the production equipment control part, the clamping component 2 and the air supply component 3 can move between the first bearing part 1 and the second bearing part 4 to meet different working condition requirements, and also realize the automation of the calling and placing processes, improving the processing efficiency.
[0079] The present invention also provides a handling method, including: The air supply component 3 moves until the first air joint 31 of the air supply component 3 forms a fit with the connection port 221 on the rotating part 22 of the clamping component 2; The first driving part 23 of the clamping component 2 drives the clamping part 24 of the clamping component 2 to clamp the material; The air supply component 3 moves until the first air joint 31 is disengaged from the connection port 221.
[0080] Specifically, when the air supply component 3 moves until the first air joint 31 forms a fit with the connection port 221 of the rotating part 22, the air supply component 3 and the first driving part 23 are quickly connected to form an air path. After that, the first driving part 23 can immediately drive the clamping part 24 to perform the clamping action. This fast air path response mechanism avoids the complex transmission process and possible delay in the traditional mechanical driving method, enabling the clamping action to be completed in an extremely short time.
[0081] After the handling is completed, the movement of the air supply component 3 can be used to timely disconnect the fit between the first air joint 31 and the connection port 221, making the air path connection convenient and controllable, and also reducing the risk of air pipe entanglement or breakage during the process of the first bearing part 1 driving the connecting part 21 and the clamping part 24 to rotate together, thereby improving the reliability of the handling process.
[0082] Optionally, before the first driving part 23 of the clamping component 2 drives the clamping part 24 of the clamping component 2 to clamp the material, it further includes: The first bearing part 1 drives the clamping part 24 to rotate together to a predetermined angle.
[0083] Specifically, before the first driving part 23 drives the clamping part 24 to clamp the material, the first bearing part 1 can drive the connecting part 21 and the clamping part 24 to rotate together to adjust the clamping part 24 to a suitable position, that is, a predetermined angle, so as to realize the flexible grasping of products at different angles. Moreover, the handling device has a simple structure and strong versatility.
[0084] Optionally, before the air supply component 3 moves until the first air joint 31 of the air supply component 3 forms a fit with the connection port 221 on the rotating part 22 of the clamping component 2, it further includes: Transfer the clamping component 2 from the second bearing part 4 to the first bearing part 1.
[0085] As Figure 1 shown, the second bearing part 4 can be the tool disc of the production equipment, and the clamping component 2 and the air supply component 3 can be installed on the tool disc. Before the material clamping and transfer, the clamping component 2 can be transferred from the second bearing part 4 to the first bearing part 1 under the drive of the production equipment control unit; after the material transfer is completed, the clamping component 2 can be transferred back from the first bearing part 1 to the second bearing part 4, so as to adapt to different working conditions requirements, and also realize the automation of the calling and placing processes, improving the processing efficiency.
[0086] In the above embodiments, the differences between the embodiments are mainly described. As long as the different optimization features between the embodiments are not contradictory, they can be combined to form a better embodiment. Considering the simplicity of the text, it will not be elaborated here.
