Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of heat shrink tool setting devices, specifically a heat shrink integrated tool setting device for industrial robots with an integrated cooling module and its application. Background Technology

[0002] In some precision instruments, heat-shrink tool holders are commonly used to hold tools due to the required precision in tool clamping. This involves heating the tool holder to expand the tool holder hole, inserting the tool into the hole, and then securing it using integrated cooling. This method offers high precision and rigidity, and the tool can be installed on an industrial robot after being secured. Before installing the tool on the heat-shrink tool holder, the tool holder hole needs to be cleaned.

[0003] For example, the invention patent with authorization announcement number CN120593942B discloses an automatic cleaning and detection device and method for heat shrink tool handles in the field of heat shrink tool handle cleaning technology. The automatic cleaning and detection device for heat shrink tool handles includes a cleaning component, an air supply channel, and a moving component. The cleaning component includes a driving component and a cleaning rod connected to the driving component. The driving component drives the cleaning rod to rotate. The cleaning rod is provided with a cleaning part for cleaning the tool handle hole. The air supply channel has an air inlet and an air outlet connected to the air inlet. The air outlet is arranged opposite to the cleaning rod. The moving component includes a moving base and a power component. The moving base is provided with a mounting position for installing the heat shrink tool handle. The mounting position is located between the air outlet and the cleaning rod. The power component drives the moving base to move between the cleaning component and the air supply channel, thereby realizing automatic cleaning of the tool handle hole, thereby reducing the cleaning cost of the tool handle hole and thus reducing the detection cost of the heat shrink tool handle.

[0004] Based on the above cases and actual situations, we have found the following problems: When cleaning the handle hole of the heat shrink tool holder, the small diameter and deep depth of the handle hole make manual cleaning time-consuming and laborious. In addition, the existing cleaning devices are difficult to adapt to heat shrink tool holders of various sizes, resulting in low practicality and narrow applicability of the cleaning devices, which leads to increased cleaning costs. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an integrated heat-shrinkable tool setter for industrial robots with an integrated cooling module and its application. By setting a telescopic structure and cooperating with a fixing structure, it can not only clean the tool holder hole before use, but also adapt to heat-shrinkable tool holders of different sizes. It has a wide range of applications, strong practicality, and effectively reduces cleaning costs, thereby solving the above-mentioned problems of the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides an integrated heat shrink tool setting device for industrial robots with an integrated cooling module, including an instrument cabinet and a heat shrink tool holder. The instrument cabinet is equipped with an induction heater and a cooling adapter for heating and cooling the heat shrink tool holder, respectively. The left end of the instrument cabinet is provided with a cleaning component for cleaning the tool holder hole of the heat shrink tool holder. The cleaning component includes a connecting rod, a tube coaxially rotatably connected to the bottom end of the connecting rod, several telescopic structures regularly arranged at the bottom end of the tube, and a fixing structure arranged below the tube for fixing the heat shrink tool holder.

[0007] The telescopic structure includes a cleaning plate, a sleeve fixed in the middle of the inner wall of the cleaning plate, a fixed rod slidably connected to the sleeve, and a first spring disposed in the sleeve. The bottom end of the insertion tube is provided with a number of abutment plates arranged in a ring. The insertion tube is provided with an abutment rod for pushing the abutment plates outward.

[0008] The fixing structure includes a pair of grippers, an intermediate block hinged between the same ends of the pair of grippers, and a plurality of first sliding rods sleeved within the fixed ends of the grippers. The plurality of first sliding rods are hinged to the bottom end of the connecting rod by a push rod. A second sliding rod is fixedly connected to the middle of the left side wall of the intermediate block. A second spring is sleeved between the left end of the second sliding rod and the right end of the first sliding rod.

[0009] In this design, considering existing technologies, heat-shrink tool holders are typically used to hold tools in precision instruments due to the required clamping accuracy. This involves heating the tool holder to expand the tool holder hole, inserting the tool into the hole, and then cooling it to secure it. This method offers high precision and rigidity. Before installing the tool in the heat-shrink tool holder, the tool holder hole needs to be cleaned. However, the hole diameter is small and the depth is deep, making manual cleaning time-consuming and labor-intensive. Existing cleaning devices are also difficult to adapt to heat-shrink tool holders of various sizes. Therefore, this technical solution, by incorporating a telescopic structure, not only allows for pre-use cleaning of the tool holder hole but also accommodates heat-shrink tool holders of different sizes, making it widely applicable and highly practical.

[0010] In the technical solution of the present invention, the instrument cabinet is provided with horizontal slide rails, and the slide rails are provided with sliding slide blocks. The heat shrink knife handle is inserted into the slide block. The induction heater and the cooling adapter are arranged sequentially from right to left on the rear side wall of the instrument cabinet. The rear side wall of the instrument cabinet is provided with Y-axis drive devices for controlling the up and down movement of the induction heater and the cooling adapter.

[0011] This setting allows for easy and quick installation and movement of heat shrink tool holders by using slide rails and slide blocks.

[0012] In the technical solution of the present invention, a first hydraulic cylinder for controlling the up and down movement of the cleaning component is fixed on the left side of the rear side wall of the instrument cabinet. The top end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first hydraulic cylinder. A second hydraulic cylinder is fixed inside the bottom end of the connecting rod. The output shaft of the second hydraulic cylinder is coaxially fixed with the top end of the abutment rod. The lower half of the abutment rod extends into the insertion tube and the two are slidably connected.

[0013] In this setup, a first hydraulic cylinder controls the vertical movement of the cleaning assembly. A second hydraulic cylinder is used to stop the telescopic structure from moving down to the top opening of the heat-shrinkable knife handle hole. The second hydraulic cylinder is then activated to move the abutment rod down, pushing the cleaning plate outward in sync with the inner wall of the knife handle hole. After that, the first hydraulic cylinder is activated again to move the telescopic structure down to continue cleaning the knife handle hole.

[0014] In the technical solution of the present invention, a plurality of abutment plates are arranged in a regular ring, and a plurality of abutment plates are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with a plurality of cleaning plates. A crossbar is symmetrically fixed to the outer wall of the abutment plate and the inner end of the corresponding rod sleeve. The crossbar passes through the rod wall of the connecting rod and the two are slidably connected. The inner edge of the top surface of the abutment plate is chamfered. The bottom end of the abutment rod is a frustum shape with a larger top and a smaller bottom, and the diameter of the bottom end of the abutment rod is smaller than the diameter of the ring formed by the plurality of abutment plates.

[0015] In this setup, by incorporating abutment rods and abutment plates, it is ensured that when the abutment rod moves downward, the surrounding abutment plates are subjected to uniform force and expand outward synchronously, thereby ensuring that all cleaning plates effectively contact the inner wall of the tool holder hole. By incorporating a crossbar, when the abutment plates expand outward, the crossbar drives the sleeve to move outward, compressing the first spring. After cleaning, the abutment rod moves upward, and the restoring force of the compressed first spring drives the sleeve and cleaning plates to reset.

[0016] In the technical solution of the present invention, the top end of the insertion tube is embedded in the bottom end of the connecting rod and the two are rotatably connected. A mounting box is fixed to the right side of the outer wall of the bottom end of the connecting rod. A servo motor is fixed inside the mounting box. The output shaft of the servo motor is coaxially fixed with a driving tooth. A driven tooth is coaxially fixed to the outer wall of the top end of the insertion tube. The driving tooth and the driven tooth mesh with each other. The diameter of the driving tooth is smaller than the diameter of the driven tooth.

[0017] In this setup, a servo motor is used. After the cleaning plate enters the tool holder hole, the servo motor is activated to drive the active gear to rotate, which in turn drives the insertion tube to rotate through the driven gear. This, in turn, drives all the cleaning plates to rotate, thus ensuring that the cleaning plates are in complete contact with the inner wall of the tool holder hole and improving the cleaning effectiveness.

[0018] In the technical solution of the present invention, a fan blade is coaxially fixed below the active tooth, a collection tank is threadedly connected to the bottom surface of the mounting box, an air pipe is connected below the collection tank, the other end of the air pipe passes through the central axis of the connecting rod and the abutment rod in sequence and exits from the central axis of the bottom end of the insertion tube, and two upper and lower flange plates are fixed on the outer wall of the end of the air pipe located at the bottom end of the insertion tube, the upper and lower flange plates are respectively set on the upper and lower sides of the bottom surface of the insertion tube, and the air pipe is a rubber hose.

[0019] In this setup, by incorporating fan blades, when the servo motor drives the cleaning plate to rotate and clean the inner wall of the blade holder hole, the fan blades rotate synchronously, generating negative pressure. This causes the airflow to carry the cleaned dust and debris from the blade holder hole through the air tube into the collection tank for centralized collection. By incorporating flanges, the opening at the bottom of the air tube always moves up and down synchronously with the insertion tube, thus ensuring that the air tube can continuously draw in dust and debris without rotating with the insertion tube.

[0020] In the technical solution of the present invention, the gripper is composed of a fixed part and two clamping parts hinged together. The middle block is located in the middle right side of the fixed part and between the clamping parts on both sides. The front and rear side walls of the middle block are respectively hinged to the left end of the clamping parts on both sides by two sets of hinge rods. A connecting plate is provided on the left side of the fixed part. The right side wall of the connecting plate is hinged to the bottom end of the push rod. The connecting plate is fixedly connected to the left end of a plurality of first slide rods. A sliding groove is provided in the middle of the fixed part. The right half of the first slide rod and the left half of the second slide rod are both disposed in the sliding groove.

[0021] In this setup, by setting a middle block, when the middle block slides to the left, the hinge rods on both sides will pull the clamping part closer to the center to clamp the heat shrink tool holder.

[0022] In the technical solution of the present invention, the upper and lower ends of the push rod are respectively hinged to the wall of the connecting rod and the right side wall of the connecting plate. The right ends of a plurality of first slide rods are fixedly connected to the same first baffle, and the left ends of the second slide rods are fixedly connected to a second baffle. The first slide rods pass through the second baffle and the two are slidably connected. The second slide rods pass through the first baffle and the two are slidably connected. The plurality of first slide rods are distributed in a ring around the periphery of the second slide rod.

[0023] In the technical solution of the present invention, the second spring is sleeved around a plurality of the first slide rods, and the second spring is disposed between the second baffle and the first baffle.

[0024] In this configuration, by using a second spring, as the telescopic structure moves downwards to open the top of the heat shrink tool holder hole, the push rod pushes the connecting plate and the first slide rod to the left. The second slide rod is then pushed to the left by the second spring, causing the gripper to clamp the heat shrink tool holder. As the telescopic structure continues to move downwards, the first slide rod continues to move to the left. At this point, the gripper has completely clamped the heat shrink tool holder, preventing the middle block from sliding to the left. The movement of the first slide rod to the left compresses the second spring, preventing the first slide rod from being unable to move and thus preventing the subsequent telescopic structure from moving downwards into the tool holder hole.

[0025] On the other hand, the present invention also provides an application of the heat-shrinkable integrated tool setter for industrial robots with integrated cooling modules, as described above, in industrial robots with integrated cooling modules.

[0026] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0027] 1. In this invention, by setting a telescopic structure, when cleaning the handle hole, the heat shrink handle is sent to the bottom of the cleaning component, and then the telescopic structure is moved down to the top opening of the handle hole of the heat shrink handle. At this time, the drive abutment rod moves downward and pushes all the abutment plates to expand outward synchronously, which can drive the cleaning plate to move outward synchronously and fit tightly against the inner wall of the handle hole. After the cleaning plate enters the handle hole, the servo motor is started to drive all the cleaning plates to rotate, thereby ensuring that the cleaning plate is in complete contact with the inner wall of the handle hole, improving the cleaning effectiveness, realizing the cleaning of handle holes of heat shrink handles of different sizes, improving the practicality of the entire device, and reducing the cleaning cost.

[0028] 2. In this invention, by setting fan blades, when the servo motor drives the cleaning plate to rotate and clean the inner wall of the tool handle hole, the fan blades rotate synchronously to generate negative pressure, so that the airflow carries the dust and debris cleaned in the tool handle hole through the air pipe into the collection tank for centralized collection. This avoids some dust being squeezed under the cleaning plate after the cleaning plate moves downward and cannot be cleaned out, thus improving the cleaning effect.

[0029] 3. In this invention, by setting a fixed structure, when the telescopic structure moves down to open the top of the heat shrink knife handle hole, the push rod simultaneously pushes the connecting plate and the first slide rod to the left, and pushes the second slide rod to the left through the second spring transmission, so that the gripper clamps the heat shrink knife handle. This avoids the heat shrink knife handle rotating synchronously when the cleaning plate is close to the heat shrink knife handle hole and rotates for cleaning, thus preventing the cleaning function from being achieved. As the telescopic structure continues to move down, the first slide rod continues to move to the left. At this time, the gripper has completely clamped the heat shrink knife handle, preventing the middle block from sliding to the left. The movement of the first slide rod to the left will compress the second spring, preventing the first slide rod from being unable to move and causing the subsequent telescopic structure to be unable to move down into the knife handle hole.

[0044] The specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, but it should be understood that the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments.

[0045] Unless otherwise expressly stated, throughout this specification, the term "comprising" or its variations such as "including" or "comprises" shall be understood to include the stated elements or components without excluding other elements or other components.

[0046] Reference Figures 1-10 As shown, this embodiment provides a technical solution:

[0047] An integrated heat-shrink tool setter for industrial robots with an integrated cooling module is an application of this technology. It includes an instrument cabinet 100 and a heat-shrink tool holder 200. The instrument cabinet 100 is equipped with an induction heater 101 and a cooling adapter 102 for heating and cooling the heat-shrink tool holder 200. The induction heater 101 generates eddy currents and hysteresis losses within the heat-shrink tool holder 200 through a high-frequency alternating magnetic field. The cooling adapter 102 is typically an air-cooled or water-cooled unit, selected based on the specific needs of the industrial robot. Both the induction heater 101 and the cooling adapter 102 are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0048] The instrument cabinet 100 has a cleaning assembly 300 on its left side for cleaning the handle hole of the heat shrink tool holder 200. The cleaning assembly 300 includes a connecting rod 302, a tube 303 coaxially rotatably connected to the bottom end of the connecting rod 302, several telescopic structures 310 regularly arranged at the bottom end of the tube 303, and a fixing structure 320 located below the tube 303 for securing the heat shrink tool holder 200. By using the cleaning assembly 300 to clean the handle hole before heating the heat shrink tool holder 200, dust or debris can be prevented from remaining inside the handle hole, which could damage the hole during heating and prevent the tool from being installed.

[0049] The telescopic structure 310 includes a cleaning plate 311, a sleeve 312 fixed to the middle of the inner wall of the cleaning plate 311, a fixed rod 314 slidably connected to the sleeve 312, and a first spring 316 disposed within the sleeve 312. A plurality of abutment plates 313 are arranged in a ring at the bottom end of the insertion tube 303, and an abutment rod 304 is provided inside the insertion tube 303 to push the abutment plates 313 outwards. By setting the telescopic structure 310, when cleaning the knife handle hole, the heat-shrink knife handle 200 is sent below the cleaning assembly 300, and then the telescopic structure 310 is moved down to the top opening of the knife handle hole of the heat-shrink knife handle 200. At this time, the abutment rod 304 is driven to move downwards, pushing all the abutment plates 313 outwards synchronously, thereby causing the cleaning plate 311 to move outwards synchronously and fit tightly against the inner wall of the knife handle hole. This enables the cleaning of knife handle holes of heat-shrink knife handles 200 of different sizes, improving the practicality of the entire device.

[0050] Furthermore, the fixing structure 320 includes a gripper 322, an intermediate block 323 disposed in the middle of the gripper 322, and a plurality of first sliding rods 325 sleeved within the fixed end of the gripper 322. The connecting plate 324 and the bottom end of the connecting rod 302 are hinged together by a push rod 321. A plurality of first sliding rods 325 arranged in a ring horizontally are fixedly connected to the right side of the connecting plate 324. A second sliding rod 326 is fixedly connected to the middle of the left side wall of the intermediate block 323. A second spring 327 is sleeved between the left end of the second sliding rod 326 and the right end of the first sliding rod 325.

[0051] By setting the fixed structure 320, when the telescopic structure 310 moves down to open the top of the handle hole of the heat shrink knife handle 200, the push rod 321 pushes the connecting plate 324 and the first slide rod 325 to the left in sync, and the second slide rod 326 is pushed to the left by the second spring 327, so that the gripper 322 clamps the heat shrink knife handle 200. This prevents the heat shrink knife handle 200 from rotating synchronously and failing to achieve the cleaning function when the cleaning plate 311 is close to the handle hole of the heat shrink knife handle 200 and rotates for cleaning.

[0052] Please see Figure 1 As shown, the instrument cabinet 100 is equipped with horizontal slide rails 103, and sliding blocks are mounted on the slide rails 103. The heat shrink knife handle 200 is inserted into the sliding block. The sliding block can be driven by hydraulics or a linear motor; this is not a limitation and is existing technology, so it will not be described in detail here. Additionally, to facilitate quick installation of the heat shrink knife handle 200, the bottom outer wall of the heat shrink knife handle 200 has a protruding circular retaining ring. It is directly inserted into the sliding block through the retaining ring, without direct fixation. Therefore, a fixing structure 320 is needed to secure the heat shrink knife handle 200 during cleaning. The induction heater 101 and cooling adapter 102 are arranged sequentially from right to left on the rear wall of the instrument cabinet 100. The rear wall of the instrument cabinet 100 is equipped with Y-axis drive devices for controlling the up-and-down movement of the induction heater 101 and cooling adapter 102; this is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0053] Please see Figures 2-3 As shown, a first hydraulic cylinder 301 is fixed to the left end of the rear side wall of the instrument cabinet 100. The cleaning assembly 300 is moved up and down by the first hydraulic cylinder 301. The top end of the connecting rod 302 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first hydraulic cylinder 301. A second hydraulic cylinder 305 is fixed inside the bottom end of the connecting rod 302. The output shaft of the second hydraulic cylinder 305 is coaxially fixed to the top end of the abutment rod 304. The lower half of the abutment rod 304 extends into the insertion tube 303 and the two are slidably connected.

[0054] By setting a second hydraulic cylinder 305, when the telescopic structure 310 moves down to the top opening of the tool holder hole of the heat shrink tool holder 200, it stops moving down. Then, the second hydraulic cylinder 305 is started to drive the abutment rod 304 to move down and push the cleaning plate 311 to move outward in sync and stick tightly to the inner wall of the tool holder hole. After that, the first hydraulic cylinder 301 is started again to drive the telescopic structure 310 to continue to move down and clean the tool holder hole.

[0055] like Figures 4-6 As shown, several abutment plates 313 are arranged in a regular ring, with each abutment plate 313 corresponding to a cleaning plate 311. The inner edge of the top surface of the abutment plate 313 is chamfered, and the bottom end of the abutment rod 304 is a frustum shape, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, with the diameter of the bottom end of the abutment rod 304 being smaller than the diameter of the ring formed by the abutment plates 313. This ensures that when the abutment rod 304 moves downward, the surrounding abutment plates 313 are subjected to uniform force and expand outward synchronously, thereby ensuring that all cleaning plates 311 are in effective contact with the inner wall of the tool holder hole.

[0056] In addition, crossbars 315 are symmetrically fixed to the outer wall of the abutment plate 313 and the inner end face of the corresponding rod sleeve 312. The crossbars 315 penetrate the rod wall of the connecting rod 302 and the two are slidably connected. By setting the crossbars 315, when the abutment plate 313 expands outward, the rod sleeve 312 can be pushed outward through the transmission of the crossbars 315, thereby compressing the first spring 316. After cleaning is completed, the abutment rod 304 moves upward, and the restoring force of the compressed first spring 316 can drive the rod sleeve 312 and the cleaning plate 311 to return to their original positions.

[0057] Please see Figures 7-8 As shown, the top end of the insertion tube 303 is embedded in the bottom end of the connecting rod 302, and the two are rotatably connected. A mounting box is fixed to the right side of the bottom outer wall of the connecting rod 302. A servo motor 306 is fixed inside the mounting box. A drive gear 307 is coaxially fixed to the output shaft of the servo motor 306, and a driven gear 308 is coaxially fixed to the top outer wall of the insertion tube 303. The drive gear 307 and the driven gear 308 mesh with each other. By setting the servo motor 306, after the cleaning plate 311 enters the tool holder hole, the servo motor 306 is started, driving the drive gear 307 to rotate, which in turn drives the insertion tube 303 to rotate via the driven gear 308, thereby driving all the cleaning plates 311 to rotate. This ensures that the cleaning plates 311 are in complete contact with the inner wall of the tool holder hole, improving the cleaning effectiveness.

[0058] In addition, the diameter of the driving tooth 307 is smaller than the diameter of the driven tooth 308. Since the rotation of the insertion tube 303 drives the cleaning plate 311 to rotate through the crossbar 315, if the friction between the cleaning plate 311 and the knife handle hole is large, the crossbar 315 is prone to deformation and bending at high speeds. Since the diameter of the driving tooth 307 is smaller than the diameter of the driven tooth 308, the rotational speed of the driven tooth 308 will be less than that of the driving tooth 307, thus achieving the purpose of reducing the rotational speed.

[0059] Furthermore, a fan blade 309 is coaxially fixed below the active gear 307, and a collection tank 3010 is threadedly connected to the bottom surface of the mounting box. An air pipe 3011 is connected to the bottom of the collection tank 3010. The other end of the air pipe 3011 passes through the central axis of the connecting rod 302 and the abutment rod 304 in sequence, and exits from the central axis at the bottom end of the insertion tube 303. By setting the fan blade 309, when the servo motor 306 drives the cleaning plate 311 to rotate and clean the inner wall of the knife handle hole, the fan blade 309 rotates synchronously and generates negative pressure, causing the airflow to carry the dust and debris cleaned in the knife handle hole through the air pipe 3011 into the collection tank 3010 for centralized collection. It should be noted that a screen is provided at the top opening of the collection tank 3010 to prevent dust and debris from contacting the fan blade 309.

[0060] Specifically, the trachea 3011 has two flanges 3012 fixed to the outer wall of its bottom end of the intubation tube 303. The flanges 3012 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the bottom surface of the intubation tube 303. The trachea 3011 is a rubber hose. By setting the flanges 3012, the opening at the bottom of the trachea 3011 always moves up and down synchronously with the intubation tube 303, thereby ensuring that the trachea 3011 can always suck in dust and debris, while not rotating with the intubation tube 303. It should be noted that the bottom of the trachea 3011 is higher than the bottom surface of the cleaning plate 311 to avoid the trachea 3011 being blocked when the cleaning plate 311 moves to the bottom.

[0061] Please see Figures 9-10 As shown, the gripper 322 consists of a fixed part and two clamping parts hinged together. The fixed part is fixed to the left end of the instrument cabinet 100. The intermediate block 323 is located in the middle right side of the fixed part and between the two clamping parts. The front and rear side walls of the intermediate block 323 are hinged to the left ends of the clamping parts on both sides by two sets of hinge rods. A connecting plate 324 is provided on the left side of the fixed part. The right side wall of the connecting plate 324 is hinged to the bottom end of the push rod 321. The middle part of the right side wall of the connecting plate 324 is fixedly connected to the left ends of several first slide rods 325. A sliding groove is provided in the middle of the fixed part. The right half of the first slide rod 325 and the left half of the second slide rod 326 are both set in the sliding groove. By setting the intermediate block 323, when the intermediate block 323 slides to the left, it will pull the clamping parts closer to the center through the hinge rods on both sides to clamp the heat shrink knife handle 200.

[0062] Furthermore, the upper and lower ends of the push rod 321 are hinged to the wall of the connecting rod 302 and the right side wall of the connecting plate 324, respectively. The right ends of several first sliding rods 325 are fixedly connected to the same first baffle 328, and the left ends of second sliding rods 326 are fixedly connected to a second baffle 329. The first sliding rods 325 pass through the second baffle 329 and are slidably connected, while the second sliding rods 326 pass through the first baffle 328 and are slidably connected. The several first sliding rods 325 are arranged in a ring around the second sliding rods 326. A second spring 327 is sleeved around the several first sliding rods 325 and is positioned between the second baffle 329 and the first baffle 328.

[0063] By setting the second spring 327, when the telescopic structure 310 moves down to open the top of the tool holder hole of the heat shrink tool holder 200, the push rod 321 pushes the connecting plate 324 and the first slide rod 325 to the left, and through the transmission of the second spring 327, pushes the second slide rod 326 to slide to the left, so that the gripper 322 clamps the heat shrink tool holder 200. Then, as the telescopic structure 310 continues to move down, the first slide rod 325 continues to move to the left. At this time, the gripper 322 has completely clamped the heat shrink tool holder 200, so that the middle block 323 cannot slide to the left. The movement of the first slide rod 325 to the left will compress the second spring 327, so as to prevent the first slide rod 325 from being unable to move and thus preventing the subsequent telescopic structure 310 from moving down into the tool holder hole.

[0064] The specific working principle of the heat shrink integrated tool setting device for industrial robots with integrated cooling module in this invention is as follows: Before heating the heat shrink tool holder 200, the heat shrink tool holder 200 is inserted into the slide, and the data dimensions of the heat shrink tool holder 200 are input into the instrument cabinet 100. Then, the instrument cabinet 100 controls the drive slide to move the heat shrink tool holder 200 to the right to below the cleaning component 300, and starts the first hydraulic cylinder 301 to drive the connecting rod 302 and the insertion tube 303 to move downward. When the cleaning plate 311 moves down to the top opening of the tool holder hole of the heat shrink tool holder 200, it stops moving downward.

[0065] During the downward movement of the cleaning plate 311, the push rod 321 pushes the connecting plate 324 and the first slide rod 325 to the left, and through the transmission of the second spring 327, pushes the second slide rod 326 to slide to the left, causing the middle block 323 to slide to the left, and causing the gripper 322 to clamp the middle heat shrink knife handle 200.

[0066] Then, the second hydraulic cylinder 305 is activated to drive the abutment rod 304 to move down, which in turn pushes the cleaning plate 311 to move outward in sync and to fit tightly against the inner wall of the tool holder hole. After the cleaning plate 311 is in close contact, the first hydraulic cylinder 301 is activated again to drive the telescopic structure 310 to continue to move down and clean the tool holder hole. At the same time, the servo motor 306 is activated to drive the active gear 307 to rotate and drive the insertion tube 303 to rotate through the driven gear 308, thereby driving all the cleaning plates 311 to rotate, ensuring that the cleaning plate 311 is in complete contact with the inner wall of the tool holder hole.

[0067] As the cleaning plate 311 continues to move down, the first slide bar 325 continues to move to the left. At this time, the gripper 322 has completely clamped the heat shrink handle 200, making the middle block 323 unable to slide to the left. The first slide bar 325 moving to the left will compress the second spring 327, preventing the first slide bar 325 from being unable to move, which would prevent the subsequent telescopic structure 310 from moving down into the handle hole.

[0068] While the cleaning plate 311 rotates, the servo motor 306 drives the fan blade 309 to rotate synchronously to generate negative pressure, which in turn causes the airflow to carry the dust and debris cleaned in the knife handle hole through the air pipe 3011 into the collection tank 3010 for centralized collection and processing.

[0069] After the tool holder hole is cleaned, the cleaning plate 311 moves upward and out of the tool holder hole, releasing the fixation of the heat shrink tool holder 200. Then, the instrument cabinet 100 controls the heat shrink tool holder 200 to move below the induction heater 101. Then, the Y-axis drive device drives the induction heater 101 to move down to the corresponding position of the heat shrink tool holder 200 for heating. After heating, the tool is aligned with the tool holder hole and inserted. Then, the induction heater 101 and the heat shrink tool holder 200 are moved again to the underside of the cooling adapter 102. The Y-axis drive device drives the cooling adapter 102 to move down to cool the tool holder hole of the heat shrink tool holder 200 for cooling. The tool is fixed by thermal expansion and contraction.
