AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing robotic arms have insufficient gripping force and are prone to deviation during tool changing, which is not easily detected. This can cause the grippers to loosen due to vibration and impact during movement, resulting in the tool falling directly out of the grippers and causing tool damage.

Method used

The push-pull robotic arm lever structure in the plug-in module amplifies the thrust of the electric drive rod, enabling the arc-shaped clamping block to generate high locking force. The drive shaft position is monitored in real time through ball bearings and adaptive contact arms. When the deviation exceeds the limit, an alarm is immediately triggered and the machine stops to prevent tool drop caused by mechanical deviation.

Benefits of technology

It effectively avoids tool detachment caused by vibration and impact, improves the reliability and safety of the tool changing process, and ensures tool stability and overall machine processing efficiency.

[0036] In a specific application scenario, when changing the tool, the driving motor 6 rotates the disc tool magazine 2 through the driving shaft 5 to rotate the target tool to the tool changing position. At this time, the mechanical arm is inserted and pulled to trigger the tool storage unlocking mechanism 3 to unlock the tool. The electric driving rod 816 pushes the push-pull circular plate 812 to move forward, drives the push-pull cylinder 815 to slide, converts the horizontal pushing force into the radial clamping force of the mechanical clamping arm 810 through the lever action of the push-pull mechanical arm 814, and tightly locks the arc-shaped clamping block 811 to the trigger column of the tool storage unlocking mechanism 3. When the electric driving rod 816 retracts, the push-pull mechanical arm 814 pulls the mechanical clamping arm 810 in the reverse direction, and the arc-shaped clamping block 811 releases the locked trigger column of the tool storage unlocking mechanism 3.

The linkage gear two 844 synchronously drives the protective cylinder two 833, the cleaning brush plate 835 in the protective cylinder two 833 is tightly attached to the driving shaft of the electric telescopic cylinder 821 under the action of the compression spring 834, and debris is removed. The lever structure of the push-pull mechanical arm 814 in the insertion and pulling module 8 amplifies the pushing force of the electric driving rod 816, so that the arc-shaped clamping block 811 generates high locking force, and the tool in the tool storage unlocking mechanism 3 is prevented from falling off due to vibration during triggering. At the same time, the driving shaft pose is monitored in real time through the ball 839 and the self-adaptive contact arm 838. When the offset exceeds the limit, an alarm is immediately given to stop the machine, so as to prevent the tool from falling off due to mechanical deviation.
