[0025] To further illustrate the various embodiments, the present invention provides drawings. These drawings are part of the disclosure of the present invention, which are mainly used to illustrate the embodiments and can be used in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification to explain the operating principles of the embodiments. With reference to these contents, a person of ordinary skill in the art should be able to understand other possible implementations and advantages of the present invention. The components in the figures are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are generally used to represent similar components.
[0026] The utility model is now further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0027] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present embodiment provides a clamp for splitting and clamping basket-like containers (hereinafter referred to as the clamp), the clamp comprises a bracket 2 and a clamping unit 6 mounted on the bracket 2 and used for splitting and clamping the basket-like container 5, abutment portions are respectively arranged on both sides of the basket-like container 5, the bracket 2 has two support arms 23 arranged at intervals, the clamping unit 6 comprises a driver 3 and a clamping hand 4 mounted on the telescopic end of the driver 3, the clamping hand 4 has an inclined surface for splitting the stacked basket-like containers 5, the inclined surface of the clamping hand 4 corresponds to the abutment portion of the basket-like container 5, so that the clamped basket-like container 5 is lifted and away from the adjacent basket-like container 5, the driver 3 is respectively fixedly mounted on the two support arms 23 of the bracket 2, and the driver 3 drives the connected clamping hand 4 to drive the clamping hand 4 to extend and clamp the basket-like container 5.
[0028] In this embodiment, the basket-like container 5 is a basket for turnover, and handles 51 are respectively provided on both sides of the basket-like container 5, and the handles 51 are the abutting parts. The bottom 511 of the handles 51 of the basket-like container 5 is a plane. The basket-like container 5 is placed in a stacked state, and the clamp is assembled on the motion execution unit of the prior art, and the motion execution unit is provided with a set path in advance so that the motion execution unit can move on the set path, and the output end of the motion control unit is connected to the input end of the motion execution unit to enable the motion control unit to control the motion execution unit to execute according to the preset program and steps.
[0029] like Figure 6As shown, after the basket-like container 5 is placed in a stacked state, the clamp is driven by the motion execution unit of the prior art to move to the periphery of the basket-like container 5, and then the position of the bracket 2 is adjusted so that the clamp 4 is aligned with the basket-like container 5.
[0030] When it is necessary to circulate and transport a single basket-like container 5, the gripper 4 first aims at the basket-like container 5 on the top layer, then completes the turnover and transport of the basket-like container 5 on the top layer, and then completes the turnover and transport of each basket-like container 5 layer by layer in a downward direction.
[0031] When it is necessary to separate the stacked basket-like containers 5 into a plurality of different basket groups (e.g., different basket groups respectively contain a plurality of basket-like containers 5) for circulation and transportation, the gripper 4 first aligns with the basket-like container 5 at the bottom layer of the basket group to be transported, and then completes the circulation and transportation of the entire basket group.
[0032] The inclined surface of the gripper 4 is pressed against the bottom edge of the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5. As the gripper 4 gradually approaches the side wall of the basket-like container 5, the gripped basket-like container 5 is lifted up and away from the adjacent basket-like container 5 (that is, the gripped basket-like container 5 and the adjacent basket-like container 5 are arranged in the upper and lower layers). That is, under the action of external force (the force from the telescopic end of the driver 3), the basket-like container 5 abutted by the gripper 4 is forced to be lifted upward along the inclined surface of the gripper 4, so that the basket-like container 5 abutted by the gripper 4 is separated from the basket-like container 5 below, so as to split the stacked basket-like containers 5, and complete the unpacking operation.
[0033] The driver 3 then continues to drive the gripper 4 to extend and clamp the basket-like container 5, so as to clamp the basket-like container 5 and complete the turnover and transportation of the basket-like container 5. The structure of the clamp is simple and the operation is convenient.
[0034] Of course, in other embodiments, the bottom 511 of the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5 is an inclined surface, and the inclined surface of the clamping hand 4 corresponds to the bottom 511 of the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5 to form an inclined wedge structure, which can also realize the disassembly of the basket-like container 5.
[0035] Furthermore, the motion execution unit may not move on the set path.
[0036] In another preferred embodiment, the gripper 4 includes a clamping block 42 and a fixing plate 41 fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the driver 3, one end of the fixing plate 41 has a raised stopper 411, and the other end is fixedly mounted with the clamping block 42, the stopper 411 and the clamping block 42 are arranged at an upper and lower interval and form a card slot 43 with an opening, and the card slot 43 corresponds to the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5.
[0037] More specifically, the clamping block 42 has a first inclined surface 421 on one side facing the stopper 411 . The first inclined surface 421 is the inclined surface of the clamping hand 4 , and the driver 3 is a cylinder.
[0038] In this specific embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the side walls on both sides of the basket-like container 5 are respectively provided with clearance grooves 52 located below the handle 51 , and the clamping blocks 42 correspond to the clearance grooves 52 .
[0039] like Figure 7 As shown, after the basket-like containers 5 are placed in a stacked state and one of the basket-like containers 5 needs to be circulated or moved, the clamping block 42 is pushed out by the telescopic end of the cylinder, and the clamping block 42 gradually extends into the make way groove 52. In the process of the clamping block 42 gradually extending into the make way groove 52, the first inclined surface 421 of the clamping block 42 continuously presses against the bottom edge of the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5 and forms an upward force, forcing the pushed basket-like container 5 to be lifted upward, so as to separate the pushed basket-like container 5 from the basket-like container 5 below, so as to split the basket-like containers 5 in the stacked state.
[0040] Afterwards, if Figure 8 As shown, the telescopic end of the cylinder drives the clamping block 42 to push out a certain distance inward and then stop. At this time, the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5 forms a stable clamping relationship with the clamping groove 43 of the clamping hand 4. At the same time, the clamping blocks 42 located on both sides of the basket-like container 5 abut against the side wall of the basket-like container 5, so that the clamping hand 4 can hold or clamp the basket-like container 5, thereby completing the turnover and transportation of a single basket-like container 5.
[0041] Of course, in other embodiments, the fixing plate 41 of the clamping hand 4 can also be omitted, and the clamping block 42 only needs to extend into the clearance groove 52 to form a snap connection, so that the basket container 5 can be disassembled and clamped.
[0042] In addition, the structural appearance of the clamping block 42 can be determined according to the structure of the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5 and the actual situation on site.
[0043] Further preferably, both sides of the basket-like container 5 have inclined second slopes 53 , and the clamping block 42 has a third slope 422 on one side facing the side wall of the basket-like container 5 , and the third slope 422 corresponds to the second slope 53 of the basket-like container 5 .
[0044] When there is a relative position offset between the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5 and the clamping groove 43 of the clamping hand 4 (for example, the height of the clamping block 42 is less than the height of the bottom of the clearance groove 52), the clamp clamps the basket-like container 5 through the abutment contact between the third inclined surface 422 of the clamping block 42 and the second inclined surface 53 of the basket-like container 5.
[0045] Of course, in other embodiments, if there is a relative position offset between the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5 and the slot 43 of the clamp 4 (for example, the height of the clamping block 42 is flush with the height of the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5), the third inclined surface 422 corresponds to the outer side of the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5, so that the third inclined surface 422 of the clamping block 42 is in abutment with the outer side of the handle 51 of the basket-like container 5, so as to achieve the clamping of the basket-like container 5 by the clamp.
[0046] More specifically, the bracket 2 includes a cross bar 21 , and support arms 23 are fixedly mounted on both ends of the cross bar 21 . The cross bar 21 and the support arms 23 are fixedly connected via a connecting angle code 22 .
[0047] The fixed support of the two support arms 23 by the cross bar 21 and the symmetrical distribution of the two support arms 23 can facilitate the adjustment of the posture and real-time position of the gripper 4 under the cooperation and drive of the motion execution unit of the prior art to ensure the operating efficiency of the clamp.
[0048] Further preferably, the distance between the two support arms 23 is greater than the distance between the two handles 51 of the basket-like container 5, so that the space formed by the two support arms 23 of the clamp can accommodate the entire basket-like container 5, thereby facilitating the subsequent disassembly and clamping of the basket-like container 5.
[0049] Although the present invention has been specifically demonstrated and described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes may be made to the present invention in form and detail without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims, all of which are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
