The adjustment component 9 cooperates with the two insertion rods 10. A plurality of electric push rods 12 are installed in the mounting plate 6. The output end of the electric push rod 12 is rotatably matched with a connecting plate 13. A vacuum suction cup 14 is installed at the bottom of the connecting plate 13, and the connecting plate 13 is rotatably matched with the adjacent connecting plate 13.

[0028] The device can be connected to a camera and an external system, and the system can control the device's drive assembly 3, hydraulic cylinder 4, electric push rod 12 and vacuum suction cup 14, so that the camera can identify the material position, and the system controls the device to automatically track the material for grabbing, making it convenient for the robot to grab and transport the material.

[0029] The application of one aspect of this embodiment is as follows: when in use, the driving component 3 can drive the moving plate 2 to move, and the movement of the moving plate 2 drives the hydraulic cylinder 4, the mounting seat 5 and the mounting plate 6 to move left and right, so that the hydraulic cylinder 4 drives the mounting seat 5 and the mounting plate 6 to move forward and backward, and the movement of the mounting plate 6 drives the vacuum suction cup 14 to move, and the position of the vacuum suction cup 14 is adjusted to facilitate the picking up and transportation of the workpiece. The simultaneous extension and contraction of multiple electric push rods 12 can drive the vacuum suction cup 14 to move up and down through the connecting plate 13. The extension and contraction of one electric push rod 12 can drive the connecting plate 13 to rotate at a small angle, and the rotation of the connecting plate 13 drives the vacuum suction cup 14 to rotate, so that the vacuum suction cup 14 can fit the surface of the workpiece. When the mounting plate 6 and the vacuum suction cup 14 need to be disassembled for maintenance or replacement after long-term use, the staff first mobilizes the adjustment component 9 with one hand and holds the mounting plate 6 with the other hand. The adjustment component 9 can mobilize the two insertion rods 10 to move, so that the insertion rods 10 release the fixation of the block 7, and then the staff removes the mounting plate 6 to replace the mounting plate 6 and the vacuum suction cup 14.

[0030] By means of the setting of the adjustment component 9, the staff can adjust the adjustment component 9 with one hand, so that the two insertion rods 10 release the fixation of the block 7, thereby facilitating one staff member to disassemble and replace the mounting plate 6 and the vacuum suction cup 14, thus reducing the waste of human resources; by means of the setting of the connecting plate 13, the connecting plate 13 can be driven to rotate when the electric push rod 12 is extended or retracted, and the rotation of the connecting plate 13 drives the vacuum suction cup 14 to rotate, so that the vacuum suction cup 14 can fit the surface of the workpiece, thereby facilitating the device to pick up workpieces of different shapes, and making it more stable during picking up and transportation.

[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, the driving assembly 3 of this embodiment includes two fixed plates 301 installed on the top of the workbench 1, a screw rod 302 rotatably matched between the two fixed plates 301, and a motor 303 installed on one side of one of the fixed plates 301.
