Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of robotic arm technology, and more specifically, to a robotic arm for spiral steaming and baking conveying. Background Technology

[0002] Spiral steaming and baking equipment is widely used in industries such as food processing and catering services because it can operate continuously and efficiently. However, the accompanying robotic arms have many problems in operation, which affect production efficiency and quality.

[0003] The primary problem is the cumbersome operation process. Existing robotic arms often require multiple independent operations when fixing objects to be steamed or baked. For example, adjusting the opening and closing of the robotic arm to grasp objects of different sizes requires manually rotating multiple knobs or operating multiple control levers. The adjustment accuracy is difficult to guarantee, and it is easy to cause problems such as insecure fixing or inaccurate grasping. Moving the object to the steaming or baking position is also complicated, requiring the use of an additional power system, such as an electric slide rail or hydraulic device. Operators must precisely control the movement speed and position through the control panel. This not only requires professional skills, but is also prone to abnormal movement or collisions of the robotic arm due to control errors. Resetting and retrieving the object after steaming or baking is also not easy. The reverse operation steps are numerous, time-consuming, and prone to oversight. In addition, existing robotic arms lack flexibility and adaptability. Different objects have different sizes, shapes, and weights, and different fixing methods and operation requirements. However, many robotic arms only have a single fixing method. For objects with special shapes, such as steaming or baking racks with hanging holes or smooth plates, they cannot provide a suitable solution. It is necessary to replace the robotic arm or use auxiliary tools, which increases the difficulty of operation and workload, and reduces the versatility of equipment and production efficiency.

[0004] In view of this, we propose a robotic arm for spiral steaming and baking conveying. Summary of the Invention

[0029] The connecting plate is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating shaft.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0031] 1. This invention, through the design of adjustment and limiting components, ensures that during the pulling process, the steel cable drives the winding drum to rotate, causing the winding drum to synchronously drive the rotating shaft to rotate clockwise. At this time, the pulley outside the rotating shaft continuously presses the inclined groove above the compression block, causing the two compression blocks to move towards each other and press the friction block through the first push block, causing the second push block to slide out. As the rotating shaft rotates, the deflector plate also presses against the second push block and pushes the second push block and compression blocks back to their original positions. This process repeats, ensuring that the winding drum can continue to rotate when the steel cable is being pulled. When pulling stops, the deflector plate pushes the second push block, causing the compression blocks to reset. When the first coil spring winds up the steel cable, causing the rotating shaft to rotate in the opposite direction, the pulley is locked under the compression block, completing the fixation. For recovery, the steel cable needs to be pulled a short distance again, causing the rotating shaft to rotate clockwise again. The slider pushes the two pressing blocks on both sides to move towards each other again, and then releases the tension on the steel cable. When the first coil spring drives the steel cable to reset through the winding drum, the pressing blocks on both sides have entered the grooves of the second push block, making it difficult for the pressing blocks to affect the counterclockwise rotation of the shaft. This allows the winding drum to smoothly wind up the steel cable under the action of the first coil spring. The device drives the winding drum and shaft to rotate by the tension of the steel cable. By using the complex linkage between the pulley, pressing block, first push block, friction block, second push block, and lever plate, the winding drum can be continuously rotated when tension is applied and automatically locked when tension stops. A short pull can unlock the lock and allow the winding drum to smoothly wind up the steel cable to reset under the action of the first coil spring. The operation is convenient and the device is stable, which reduces the difficulty of using the device and improves the flexibility of its use.

[0032] 2. This invention also incorporates a synchronization component and a clamping component. The hook mode allows the hook to be directly attached to the outside of the robotic arm, facilitating the quick and easy hanging of items with hanging holes or rings. The robotic gripper can adapt to steamed and baked objects of different shapes and structures, expanding its application range. The hook operation is simple; simply attaching or removing the hook completes the fixing and release of the item without the need for complex adjustment or fixing devices, saving operation time and effort. The gripping state can easily fix items such as plates. The gripping force of the robotic arm ensures that the plate will not slide or tip over during steaming and baking, guaranteeing the uniformity and stability of the steaming and baking effect. Compared to some sharp or hard fixing methods, the gripping state is relatively gentle and will not damage items such as plates, making it especially suitable for some fragile or smooth-surfaced items. Furthermore, the two usage states can be quickly switched, further reducing the difficulty of using the device.

[0033] 3. The present invention also designs steel cables and limiting components, and controls the up and down movement of the robot by manually pulling the steel cables. Operators can get started without complicated training, which reduces the difficulty of operation and training costs. For most production sites, this simple and direct operation method is very convenient and reduces the difficulty of using the device. Attached Figure Description

[0055] like Figures 1 to 9As shown, the present invention relates to a spiral steam oven conveyor robot, comprising a body mechanism 1, a suspension mechanism 2, and a robot arm mechanism 3. The inner wall of the body mechanism 1 is connected to two suspension mechanisms 2, and the two suspension mechanisms 2 are respectively connected to several robot arm mechanisms 3. The body mechanism 1 includes a body base 11, a steam oven 12 located above the body base 11, two cabinet doors 13 located on the front of the steam oven 12, a control module 14, and a ventilation port 15. The control module 14 is connected to the steam oven 12, and the ventilation port 15 is located outside the steam oven 12. The suspension mechanism 2 includes a positioning plate 21, a mounting bracket 22 connected to the positioning plate 21, several protective components 23 located above the positioning plate 21, and two bearings 24 located within the protective components 23. The system includes two first coil springs 25 located outside the two bearings 24, an adjusting assembly 26 disposed within the two bearings 24, a limiting assembly 27, a winding drum 28, and a steel cable 29 located outside the winding drum 28. The limiting assembly 27 is disposed within the protective assembly 23, and the winding drum 28 is fixedly connected to the adjusting assembly 26. The robotic arm mechanism 3 includes a top frame 31, two connecting frames 32 disposed below the top frame 31, a limiting sleeve 33 disposed outside the two connecting frames 32, a toothed plate 34 disposed within the limiting sleeve 33, a synchronization assembly 35 connected to the toothed plate 34, a clamping assembly 36, and an elastic telescopic rod 37. The elastic telescopic rod 37 is disposed below the top frame 31 and is connected to the synchronization assembly 35. The clamping assembly 36 engages with the toothed plate 34. The frame 22 is used to connect to an external driver and drive the positioning disk 21 to rotate. The bottom end of the steel cable 29 is used to connect to the top frame 31 to adjust the position and height of the clamping assembly 36. The toothed plate 34 is used to adjust the angle of the clamping assembly 36. By designing the adjusting assembly 26 and the limiting assembly 27, the steel cable 29 drives the winding drum 28 to rotate during the pulling process, so that the winding drum 28 synchronously drives the rotating shaft 261 to rotate clockwise. At this time, the pulley 2625 outside the rotating shaft 261 continuously squeezes the inclined groove 275 above the squeezing block 274, so that the two squeezing blocks 274 move towards each other and squeeze the friction block 279 through the first push block 276, so that the second push block 277 slides out. As the rotating shaft 261 rotates, the lever 2633 will also squeeze and push the second push block 277. 277 and the compression block 274 reset, and this process repeats to ensure that the winding drum 28 can continue to rotate when the steel cable 29 is pulled. When the pulling stops, the second push block 277 is pushed by the lever 2633, causing the compression block 274 to reset. This causes the first coil spring 25 to wind the steel cable 29, causing the shaft 261 to rotate in the opposite direction. The pulley 2625 is then locked under the compression block 274, completing the fixation. When it is necessary to retract the cable 29, the steel cable 29 needs to be pulled again over a short distance, causing the shaft 261 to rotate clockwise again. The slider 273 pushes the compression blocks 274 on both sides to move towards each other again, and then releases the pull on the steel cable 29. When the first coil spring 25 drives the steel cable 29 to reset through the winding drum 28, the compression blocks 274 on both sides have entered the groove 278 of the second push block 277.This design makes it difficult for the compression block 274 to affect the counterclockwise rotation of the shaft 261, allowing the winding drum 28 to smoothly wind up the steel cable 29 under the action of the first coil spring 25. The device rotates the winding drum 28 and the shaft 261 by pulling the steel cable 29. Utilizing the complex linkage between the pulley 2625, compression block 274, first push block 276, friction block 279, second push block 277, and lever plate 2633, the device achieves continuous rotation of the winding drum 28 during pulling, automatic locking when pulling stops, and unlocking by a short pull, allowing the winding drum 28 to smoothly wind up the steel cable 29 and return to its original position under the action of the first coil spring 25. The device is easy to operate and securely fixed, reducing the difficulty of use and increasing its flexibility.

The top of the top frame 31 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the steel cable 29. Through the design of the synchronization assembly 35 and the clamping assembly 36, the hook mode allows the hook to be directly attached to the outside of the robotic arm, facilitating the quick and easy hanging of items with hanging holes or rings. The robotic gripper 361 can adapt to steaming and baking objects of different shapes and structures, expanding its application range. Furthermore, the hook operation is simple; just hang the hook or... Simply remove the device to secure and release items without the need for complex adjustments or fixing devices, saving operation time and effort. The gripping mode can easily secure items such as plates, and the gripping force of the robotic arm ensures that the plates will not slide or tip over during steaming and baking, guaranteeing the uniformity and stability of the steaming and baking effect.

Because a pulley 2625 is provided, the friction between the pulley 2625 and the inclined groove 275 above the extrusion block 274 is reduced, ensuring that the pulley 2625 can stably push the two extrusion blocks 274 to move towards each other when rotating clockwise along the rotating shaft 261.

[0061] Working principle: This embodiment provides a spiral steam oven conveyor robot. In use, the steel cable 29 is manually pulled to rotate the winding drum 28, causing the mechanical claw 361 to move down to the target pick-up / placement position. During the pulling process, the steel cable 29 drives the winding drum 28 to rotate, causing the winding drum 28 to synchronously drive the rotating shaft 261 to rotate clockwise. At this time, the pulley 2625 outside the rotating shaft 261 continuously presses the inclined groove 275 above the pressing block 274, causing the two pressing blocks 274 to move towards each other and press the friction block 279 through the first push block 276, thus... The second push block 277 slides out, and as the rotating shaft 261 rotates, the lever 2633 will also press against the second push block 277 and push the second push block 277 and the pressing block 274 to reset. This process is repeated to ensure that the winding drum 28 can continue to rotate when the steel cable 29 is pulled. When the pulling stops, the lever 2633 pushes the second push block 277, causing the pressing block 274 to reset. When the first coil spring 25 winds up the steel cable 29 and the rotating shaft 261 rotates in the opposite direction, the pulley 2625 is stuck under the pressing block 274, thus completing the fixation.

[0062] If the hook mode is used, the hook of the item to be steamed or baked is hung on the buckle 353 of the synchronization component 35. The elastic telescopic rod 37 is stretched under tension, and the synchronization component 35 drives the toothed plate 34 to slide along the limiting sleeve 33. The toothed plate 34 engages with the toothed ring 363 of the clamping component 36, causing the mechanical claw 361 to open and securely hang the item. If the gripping mode is used, the plate or other items are placed directly on the placement plate 364 of the mechanical claw 361. After the hook is removed, the elastic telescopic rod 37 returns to its original position and retracts. The synchronization component 35 drives the toothed plate 34 to slide in the opposite direction, and the toothed ring 363 drives the mechanical claw 361 to close and clamp the item. When it is time to recycle... The steel cable 29 needs to be pulled again over a short distance to make the rotating shaft 261 rotate clockwise again. The slider 273 pushes the pressing blocks 274 on both sides to move towards each other again, and then releases the pull on the steel cable 29. When the first coil spring 25 drives the steel cable 29 to reset through the winding drum 28, the pressing blocks 274 on both sides have entered the groove 278 of the second push block 277, making it difficult for the pressing blocks 274 to affect the counterclockwise rotation of the rotating shaft 261. This allows the winding drum 28 to smoothly wind up the steel cable 29 under the action of the first coil spring 25, pulling the robot back to the spiral conveyor position inside the steam oven 12.

[0063] When the shaft 261 rotates counterclockwise, the lever 2633 will not be blocked by the baffle 2635, so the lever 2633 will continue to press down on the second push block 277 and flip along the pin 2632, thus not affecting the position of the second pin 2632. When the shaft 261 rotates clockwise, it will be difficult to flip along the pin 2632 due to the obstruction of the baffle 2635, thus ensuring the pressing effect on the second push block 277 and ensuring that the pressing block 274 can block the pulley 2625 when the steel cable 29 stops being pulled.

[0064] The steam oven 12 is started by setting parameters such as steaming and baking temperature and time through the control module 14. The cabinet door 13 is closed and the ventilation vent 15 continuously adjusts the internal temperature and humidity. After steaming and baking is completed, the steel cable 29 is pulled again to move the robotic arm down. After the finished product is removed, the above steps are repeated to carry out the next batch of operations.

Those skilled in the art can easily understand the spirit of this invention based on the above embodiments and make different extensions and variations, but as long as they do not depart from the spirit of this invention, they are all within the protection scope of this invention.
