DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0035] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2According to the embodiment of the utility model, the picking assembly 100 of the traffic cone includes a first connecting seat 11, a swing arm 20, a first driving device 30 and a clamping device 40, wherein the swing arm 20 is swingably connected to the first connecting seat 11 along the up and down direction, wherein the position of the first connecting seat 11 can be fixed to ensure the stable movement of the swing arm 20, the first driving device 30 is used to drive the swing arm 20 to swing, and the clamping device 40 is rotatably connected to the swing arm 20, in other words, the clamping device 40 and the swing arm 20 can rotate relative to each other. The picking assembly 100 can be configured to clamp the traffic cone and move the traffic cone to a predetermined position, wherein the predetermined position can be a road surface or a vehicle, for example, the picking assembly 100 can pick up the traffic cone placed on the road surface and move the traffic cone to the vehicle, or clamp the traffic cone stored in the vehicle and place it on the road surface. Specifically, the clamping device 40 can clamp the traffic cone, and then move the traffic cone to a predetermined position by swinging the swing arm 20. At this time, the clamping device 40 can release the traffic cone to complete the movement of the traffic cone, thereby improving the automation level of the picking component 100.

[0036] When the swing arm 20 swings, the clamping device 40 rotates synchronously and in an opposite direction relative to the swing arm 20. For example, the swing arm 20 can rotate in a clockwise direction (refer to Figure 1 When the clamping device 40 is swung in the direction of D1→D2 in the middle), the clamping device 40 will rotate in the counterclockwise direction relative to the swing arm 20. For another example, the swing arm 20 can be rotated in the counterclockwise direction (refer to Figure 1 When the swing arm 20 swings (in the direction D2→D1 in the middle), the clamping device 40 will rotate in the clockwise direction relative to the swing arm 20. Therefore, when the swing arm 20 swings, the rotation of the swing arm 20 and the clamping device 40 can at least offset a part, and the traffic cone will not flip over during the movement. The traffic cone can maintain a relatively stable state during the swinging of the swing arm 20, and after the traffic cone moves to a predetermined position, it is convenient to place it in an orderly manner.

[0037] According to the picking assembly 100 of the embodiment of the utility model, the clamping device 40 can rotate synchronously and in opposite directions relative to the swing arm 20, and the traffic cone clamped by the clamping device 40 can maintain a relatively stable state during the swinging process of the swing arm 20, thereby preventing the traffic cone from flipping over during the movement, and facilitating the orderly placement or collection of the traffic cone.

[0038] Combination Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments of the utility model, the traffic cone picking assembly 100 also includes a transmission device, and the first connecting seat 11 and the clamping device 40 are both transmission-connected to the transmission device. When the swing arm 20 swings, the transmission device drives the clamping device 40 to rotate synchronously. By setting the transmission device, the structure of the picking assembly 100 is compact and the stability is higher.

[0039] Furthermore, combined with Figure 1The transmission device includes: a first sprocket 51, a second sprocket 52 and a transmission chain 53. The first sprocket 51 is fixed to the first connecting seat 11; the second sprocket 52 is fixed to the clamping device 40; the transmission chain 53 is coupled to the first sprocket 51 and the second sprocket 52 respectively to achieve force transmission. The transmission efficiency and structural stability are improved by coupling the transmission chain 53 and the sprockets. In addition, the pickup assembly 100 includes only one swing arm 20 (a single-rod structure). The swing arm 20 cooperates with the transmission device, which can reduce the layout space compared to the traditional four-bar parallelogram structure, making the pickup assembly 100 compact.

[0040] Specifically, the first driving device 30 drives the swing arm 20 to swing in the up and down directions. The swinging of the swing arm 20 causes the angle area of ​​the transmission chain 53 relative to the first sprocket 51 to change, thereby driving the second sprocket 52 to rotate along with the transmission chain 53. The second sprocket 52 rotates relative to the swing arm 20. The second sprocket 52 is fixed to the clamping device 40. The second sprocket 52 drives the clamping device 40 to rotate synchronously in the opposite direction relative to the swing arm 20, thereby maintaining a relatively stable state for the traffic cone clamped by the clamping device 40 to prevent the traffic cone from flipping over during the swinging of the swing arm 20.

[0041] The traffic cone picking assembly 100 of the utility model can be applied to a vehicle, for example, it can be installed on the rear side of the vehicle, and the traffic cone placed on the road surface can be clamped by the clamping device 40, and then the traffic cone can be moved to the collection device of the vehicle by the swing arm 20 to realize automatic collection of the traffic cone. The traffic cone in the vehicle collection device can also be clamped by the clamping device 40, and then the traffic cone can be moved to the outside of the vehicle by the swing arm 20 to realize placing the traffic cone on the road surface. The picking assembly 100 can reduce the rotation of the traffic cone during the swinging process of the swing arm 20, improve the stability and orderliness of the placement or collection of the traffic cone, and improve the efficiency of the operation.

[0042] Among them, the clamping device 40 rotates synchronously and in opposite directions relative to the swing arm 20, and the transmission ratio of the first sprocket 51 and the second sprocket 52 can be not less than 0.8 and not more than 1.2. For example, the diameter size of the first sprocket 51 and the second sprocket 52 can be set to achieve different transmission ratios between the first sprocket 51 and the second sprocket 52, so that the rotation of the clamping device 40 and the rotation of the swing arm 20 are completely or partially offset. Before the traffic cone moves, the chassis of the traffic cone remains parallel to the ground. After being moved by the picking component 100, the chassis of the traffic cone remains parallel to the ground or slightly inclined, and the traffic cone can still be stably placed in a predetermined position. During the movement, the traffic cone clamped by the clamping device 40 can maintain a relatively stable state, avoiding the swing arm 20 from flipping over during the swinging process, reducing the twisting of the traffic cone, and ensuring that the traffic cone is placed on the road surface or collected in the vehicle in an orderly manner, thereby improving the efficiency of the operation.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present invention, the transmission ratio of the first sprocket 51 and the second sprocket 52 is 1. When the swing arm 20 swings, the clamping device 40 rotates synchronously and in opposite directions relative to the swing arm 20. Therefore, during the swinging process of the swing arm 20, the traffic cone clamped by the clamping device 40 can always maintain its initial state and will not rotate. Figure 1 The clamping device 40 swings in the direction of D1-D2. When the clamping device 40 clamps the traffic cone, in the initial state, the chassis of the traffic cone is parallel to the ground. After the clamping device 40 clamps the traffic cone, during the swinging process of the swing arm 20, the traffic cone is lifted up or lowered to the road surface. By setting the transmission ratio of the first sprocket 51 and the second sprocket 52 to 1, the rotation ratio of the clamping device 40 relative to the swing arm 20 is 1, the rotation of the clamping device 40 and the rotation of the swing arm 20 are offset, and the chassis of the traffic cone can always remain parallel to the ground. Therefore, the traffic cone can be stably placed on the road surface, or the traffic cone can be collected in the vehicle in an orderly manner, further improving the working efficiency.

[0044] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments of the utility model, the picking assembly 100 may further include a second connecting seat 12, which is fixedly connected to the swing arm 20 and is arranged between the first connecting seat 11 and the clamping device 40. One end of the first driving device 30 is rotatably connected to the first connecting seat 11, and the other end of the first driving device 30 is rotatably connected to the second connecting seat 12. In addition, the first driving device 30 is distributed side by side with the swing arm 20, and the second connecting seat 12 can enable the first driving device 30 to stably drive the swing arm 20 to rotate.

[0045] Furthermore, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 4 The second connection base 12 includes: a fifth connection plate 125, a sixth connection plate 126 and a seventh connection plate 127. The fifth connection plate 125 and the sixth connection plate 126 are fixedly connected to opposite sides of the swing arm 20. By providing the fifth connection plate 125 and the sixth connection plate 126, the connection reliability between the second connection base 12 and the swing arm 20 is improved. One end of the fifth connection plate 125 and one end of the sixth connection plate 126 are connected to the seventh connection plate 127, and the other end of the first driving device 30 is rotatably connected between the other end of the fifth connection plate 125 and the other end of the sixth connection plate 126, wherein the seventh connection plate 127 can be configured to be connected to the frame of the vehicle to improve the structural strength and stability of the pickup assembly 100.

[0046] Combination Figure 1In some embodiments of the present invention, the second connection seat 12 includes a first portion 121 and a second portion 122, the first portion 121 is perpendicular to the swing arm 20, the second portion 122 is connected to the first portion 121, and extends obliquely toward the first connection seat 11, and the end portion is rotatably connected to the first drive device 30. The first drive device 30 can be configured as a linear drive structure, for example, the first drive device 30 can be a telescopic cylinder, and one end of the first drive device 30 connected to the second connection seat 12 can telescopically move. By providing the first portion 121 and the second portion 122, it is convenient for the first drive device 30 to stably drive the swing arm to swing in the up and down directions when extending.

[0047] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3 , wherein one end of the swing arm 20 may be provided with a first connecting plate 21 and a second connecting plate 22 relative to each other, and the first sprocket 51 may be rotatably connected between the first connecting plate 21 and the second connecting plate 22. The first connecting plate 21 and the second connecting plate 22 may support and fix the first sprocket 51, thereby improving the structural stability and reliability of the first sprocket 51.

[0048] Optionally, combined Figure 4 The picking assembly 100 may further include a fixed shaft 511, which may pass through the center hole of the first sprocket 51 and be connected to the first sprocket 51 through a flat key, and the fixed shaft 511 may be fixed to one side of the first connecting seat 11, and the first sprocket 51 and the fixed shaft 511 are fixed to the first connecting seat 11, so that the first sprocket 51 does not rotate relative to the first connecting seat 11. The first driving device 30 may drive the swing arm 20 to swing around the fixed shaft 511, and when the swing arm 20 swings, the transmission chain 53 drives the second sprocket 52 to rotate, and the second sprocket 52 drives the clamping device 40 to rotate relative to the swing arm 20, and the traffic cone clamped by the clamping device 40 is maintained in a stable state and will not flip with the swing of the swing arm 20.

[0049] Combination Figure 2 The other end of the swing arm 20 may be provided with a third connecting plate 23 and a fourth connecting plate 24 relative to each other, and the second sprocket 52 may be rotatably connected between the third connecting plate 23 and the fourth connecting plate 24, thereby improving the structural stability of the second sprocket 52 and thereby improving the reliability of the picking assembly 100.

[0050] Optionally, combined Figure 2 and 4 The picking assembly 100 may also include a rotating shaft 521, which may pass through the center hole of the second sprocket 52 and be fixedly connected by a flat key to ensure the synchronization of the rotation of the second sprocket 52 and the rotating shaft 521. The rotating shaft 521 also passes through the center hole at the other end of the swing arm 20 to ensure that the rotating shaft 521 can rotate relatively flexibly with the swing arm 20.

[0051] Specifically, combined Figure 3 The first driving device 30 drives the swing arm 20 to swing, for example, it can drive the swing arm 20 to rotate along the fixed axis 511. The rotation of the swing arm 20 causes the angle area of ​​the transmission chain 53 relative to the first sprocket 51 to change, so that the transmission chain 53 drives the rotating shaft 521 and the second sprocket 52 to rotate along with the chain. The size and speed direction of the angle change of the rotating shaft 521 and the second sprocket 52 are opposite. During the entire movement, the traffic cone clamped by the clamping device 40 can be maintained in a relatively stable state, can roughly maintain the initial state, and no torsional movement will occur.

[0052] Combination Figure 3 In some embodiments of the utility model, the transmission chain 53 includes a first chain 531, a second chain 532, a first joint portion 533, and a second joint portion 534. The first chain 531 bypasses the first sprocket 51 and is coupled to the first sprocket 51, the second chain 532 bypasses the second sprocket 52 and is coupled to the second sprocket 52, the first joint portion 533 is detachably connected to one end of the first chain 531 and one end of the second chain 532, and the second joint portion 534 is detachably connected to the other end of the first chain 531 and the other end of the second chain 532. Specifically, the first joint portion 533 or the second joint portion 534 can be disassembled to facilitate maintenance of the transmission chain 53, and the length of the first chain 531 or the second chain 532 can be adjusted. In addition, the length of the swing arm 20 can also be adjusted to achieve fixed-point placement of traffic cones of different heights.

[0053] Optionally, the first engaging portion 533 may be located above the swing arm 20 , and the second engaging portion 534 may be located below the swing arm 20 , to further facilitate maintenance of the transmission chain 53 .

[0054] The first engaging portion 533 and the second engaging portion 534 may be tensioning rods, and the first chain 531 and the second chain 532 are tensioned under the adjustment of the tensioning rods to prevent the transmission chain 53 from loosening.

[0055] In some embodiments of the utility model, the first driving device 30 is a linear driving structure, and drives the swing arm 20 to swing by telescopic movement. The driving structure of the first driving device 30 is simple and has a large amplitude range. The first driving device 30 telescopes and drives the swing arm 20 to rotate around the position connected to the first connecting seat 11. The swing arm 20 drives the clamping device 40 to move, and then drives the traffic cone to move, so that the structure of the picking component 100 is simple. Only a single rod (swing arm) structure is set, so that when the swing arm 20 rotates, the clamping device 40 can rotate synchronously in the same direction relative to the swing arm 20, so that the traffic cone will not twist. The picking component 100 of the utility model can reduce the layout space relative to the four-link parallelogram structure of the transmission, and the actuator is simpler, and the traffic cone will not rotate with the rotation of the swing arm 20, and can maintain a relatively stable state.

[0056] Combination Figure 3 In some embodiments of the utility model, the first driving device 30 is arranged under the swing arm 20, so that the swing arm 20 has a larger swing space, the swing flexibility of the swing arm 20 is improved, and it is convenient for the first driving device 30 to exert force, thereby improving the working stability of the picking component 100.

[0057] Combination Figure 2 In some embodiments of the utility model, the traffic cone pickup assembly 100 further includes a rotating mechanism 60, which is connected to the first connecting seat 11 and is used to drive the first connecting seat 11 to rotate around an axis extending in the up-down direction. Specifically, the clamping device 40 is connected to one end of the swing arm 20, and the first connecting seat 11 is connected to the other end of the swing arm 20. The rotating mechanism 60 can drive the swing arm 20 to rotate at the same time by driving the first connecting seat 11 to rotate. After the clamping device 40 clamps the traffic cone, the swing arm 20 can rotate with the rotating mechanism 60 at a specified angle to place the traffic cone in different positions, thereby improving the working flexibility of the pickup assembly 100. It can be understood that in the actual operation of placing the traffic cone, according to the specific road conditions and needs, it is necessary to select a suitable placement method of the traffic cone, such as straight line placement, diagonal placement, etc., to ensure orderly, safe and smooth traffic. By setting the rotating mechanism 60, the inclination angle of the swing arm 20 can be adjusted by the rotating mechanism 60 during the vehicle's forward movement, so that the vehicle can place the traffic cone diagonally, thereby improving the adaptability and operating efficiency of the vehicle.

[0058] Combination Figure 3In some embodiments of the utility model, the picking assembly 100 of the traffic cone also includes a second driving device 70, which is transmission-connected to the first connecting seat 11 and is used to drive the rotating mechanism 60 to translate in the front-to-back direction. Specifically, the second driving device 70 can be a telescopic cylinder or a driving device with a telescopic function, which can drive the first connecting seat 11 to move linearly in the front-to-back direction. Among them, the front-to-back direction can also be the direction from the clamping device 40 to the placement position of the traffic cone. By setting the second driving device 70 to drive the picking assembly 100 to translate, it is convenient for the picking assembly 100 to clamp the traffic cone and move the traffic cone to the corresponding position. In addition, the picking assembly 100 can be installed on the rear side of the vehicle, which is convenient for picking up traffic cones on the road surface or placing traffic cones on the road surface. Through the second driving device 70, the space occupied by the picking assembly 100 can be reduced, the rear overhang length of the equipment can be reduced, and the compactness of the structure of the equipment can be improved.

[0059] Optionally, combined Figure 3 The traffic cone pickup assembly 100 may further include a first mounting seat 80 , the rotating mechanism 60 is connected to the first mounting seat 80 , the first mounting seat 80 can improve the structural stability of the rotating mechanism 60 , and the first mounting seat 80 is also connected to the second driving device 70 .

[0060] Combination Figures 1 to 5 The picking assembly 100 includes a first connecting seat 11, a swing arm 20, a first driving device 30, a clamping device 40, a transmission device, a rotating mechanism 60, and a second driving device 70. The first driving device 30 can drive the swing arm 20 to swing in the up and down directions, and the traffic cone clamped by the clamping device 40 is moved to a predetermined position through the swing arm 20. For example, the traffic cone in the vehicle can be moved to the ground, or the traffic cone on the ground can be moved into the vehicle. One end of the swing arm 20 is connected to the clamping device 40, and the other end of the swing arm 20 is connected to the rotating mechanism 60 through the first connecting seat 11. When the clamping device 40 clamps the traffic cone, the swing arm 20 can rotate a specified angle with the rotating mechanism 60. In the process of the vehicle moving forward, the problem of diagonal placement when placing the traffic cone is solved. The rotating mechanism 60 is connected to the first mounting seat 80, and the first mounting seat 80 is connected to the second driving device 70. The second driving device 70 can be a telescopic cylinder. The telescopic cylinder can include a telescopic rod and a telescopic rod sleeve. The telescopic rod is installed in the telescopic rod sleeve. Under the drive of the second driving device 70, the picking assembly 100 has a telescopic function, which solves the problem of excessive rear overhang when transporting equipment.

[0061] Combination Figure 6Optionally, the clamping device 40 includes: a fixed base 410, a first clamping portion 421 and a second clamping portion 422, the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 are respectively rotatably connected to the fixed base 410, in other words, the position of the fixed base 410 is relatively fixed, the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 are connected to the fixed base 410, and can be rotated relative to the fixed base 410, respectively, which can improve the movement stability of the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422. The first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 have a clamping state in which they are closed together for clamping the traffic cone, and a releasing state in which they are unfolded together for releasing the traffic cone. After the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 are rotated and closed together, the traffic cone can be clamped, and when the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 are rotated and unfolded together, the traffic cone can be released. The cooperation of the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 facilitates the retraction and release of the traffic cone. For example, the traffic cone can be released after being moved to a suitable position, thereby realizing automatic placement of the traffic cone, or the traffic cone can be automatically recovered by clamping the traffic cone, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0063] The clamping device 40 may further include a driving member 450 , and the driving member 450 is used to drive the movable seat 440 .

[0064] Specifically, the driving member 450 is used to drive the movable seat 440 to move relative to the fixed seat 410. The movable seat 440 drives the first connecting rod 431 and the second connecting rod 432 to move. The first connecting rod 431 can drive the first clamping part 421 to move, and the second connecting rod 432 can drive the second clamping part 422 to move. The first clamping part 421 and the second clamping part 422 are both rotated relative to the fixed seat 410, thereby realizing the mutual closing and unfolding of the first clamping part 421 and the second clamping part 422. The movable seat 440, the fixed seat 410, the first connecting rod 431 and the second connecting rod 432 can cooperate to stably drive the first clamping part 421 and the second clamping part 422 to move, and the first clamping part 421 and the second clamping part 422 can withstand greater force and torque, thereby improving the structural rigidity and movement stability of the clamping device 40.

[0065] The clamping device 40 drives the first clamping part 421 and the second clamping part 422 to close and expand with each other by setting a driving member 450, a fixed seat 410, a movable seat 440, a first connecting rod 431 and a second connecting rod 432 to clamp or release the traffic cone, thereby improving the structural rigidity of the clamping device 40, enabling the clamping device 40 to withstand greater force and torque, and improving the working stability of the clamping device 40 during the process of clamping or releasing the traffic cone.

[0066] The first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 switch between a clamping state and a release state, the fixed seat 410 can extend along a third direction, and the driving member 450 can drive the movable seat 440 to move relative to the fixed seat 410 along a second direction, and the third direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other. When the movable seat 440 moves along the second direction, the movable seat 440, the first connecting rod 431, the first clamping portion 421 and the fixed seat 410 are configured as a connecting rod slider mechanism, and the movable seat 440, the second connecting rod 432, the second clamping portion 422 and the fixed seat 410 are configured as a connecting rod slider mechanism, and the linear motion of the movable seat 440 is converted into the rotational motion of the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 through the slider mechanism, so as to achieve efficient transmission.

[0067] Combination Figure 8 In some embodiments of the present invention, the fixed seat 410 has a first hinge point 461 rotatably connected to the first clamping portion 421, and the first clamping portion 421 can rotate relative to the fixed seat 410 around the first hinge point 461. The fixed seat 410 also has a fourth hinge point 464 rotatably connected to the second clamping portion 422, and the second clamping portion 422 can rotate relative to the fixed seat 410 around the fourth hinge point 464. The position of the fixed seat 410 is relatively fixed, which can improve the stability of the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 during movement. The movable seat 440 has a second hinge point 462 rotatably connected to the first connecting rod 431, and the movable seat 440 also has a fifth hinge point 465 rotatably connected to the second connecting rod 432. There is a third hinge point 463 between the first connecting rod 431 and the first clamping portion 421, and there is a sixth hinge point 466 between the second connecting rod 432 and the second clamping portion 422. Among them, the first hinge point 461, the second hinge point 462 and the third hinge point 463 are connected to form a triangle in pairs, and the fourth hinge point 464, the fifth hinge point 465 and the sixth hinge point 466 are connected to form a triangle in pairs. By connecting the hinge points into a triangular structure, the structural strength of the clamping device 40 can be improved, and the deformation and swing of the clamping device 40 during the movement can be avoided, and the stability of the clamping device 40 in the process of clamping or releasing the traffic cone can be further improved.

[0068] Combination Fig. 9, further, the line between the second hinge point 462 and the third hinge point 463 is L2, and the line between the fifth hinge point 465 and the sixth hinge point 466 is L5, wherein L2 and L5 are arranged crosswise or separately. Specifically, L2 and L5 can be arranged crosswise, and the interface between the first connecting rod 431 and the second connecting rod 432 and the movable seat 440 is a fork-shaped design. L2 and L5 can also be arranged separately, for example, they can be arranged separately along the second direction, which can effectively avoid the occurrence of eccentric load during operation, improve the accurate transmission of the rotation angle, and at the same time enhance the structural rigidity of the clamping device 40, which is beneficial to the axial force of the clamping device 40. For example, the driving member 450 can be a telescopic cylinder. By crossing or arranging L2 and L5 separately, it is possible to avoid radial force generated by the telescopic cylinder due to eccentric load, avoid internal leakage of the telescopic cylinder, and thus improve the service life of the driving member 450 and reduce the failure rate.

[0069] Combination Fig. 9 In some embodiments of the utility model, the line between the first hinge point 461 and the second hinge point 462 is L1, and the line between the fourth hinge point 464 and the fifth hinge point 465 is L4, wherein, during the transition between the clamping state and the unfolding state, the third hinge point 463 and the sixth hinge point 466 are located on the outside of the line L1 and the line L4, or the third hinge point 463 and the sixth hinge point 466 are located on the inside of the line L1 and the line L4, which can facilitate the movable seat 440 to stably drive the first clamping part 421 and the second clamping part 422 to close and unfold through the first connecting rod 431 and the second connecting rod 432, avoiding the dead point position of the rotational movement, thereby avoiding the mechanism from being stuck during the clamping operation, and ensuring the continuity of the clamping action.

[0070] Combination Fig.10 In some embodiments of the utility model, there is a line L7 between the first hinge point 461 and the fourth hinge point 464, wherein there is a line L3 between the first hinge point 461 and the third hinge point 463, and there is a line L6 between the fourth hinge point 464 and the sixth hinge point 466. In the released state, the angle between the line L3 and the line L7 is less than 90°, and the angle between the line L7 and the line L6 is less than 90°. When the movable seat 440 drives the first clamping part 421 to rotate through the first connecting rod 431, and when the movable seat 440 drives the second clamping part 422 to rotate through the second connecting rod 432, the dead point position of the rotational movement can be avoided, so as to avoid the mechanism from being stuck during the clamping operation and ensure the continuity of the clamping action. Combined with the attached Fig.10 As shown, the angle between the line L3 and the line L7 is α1, the angle between the line L7 and the line L6 is α2, α1 and α2 can be 85°, 80°, 75°, etc. When the driving member 450 drives the movable seat 440 to move, it can stably drive the first connecting rod 431 and the second connecting rod 432 to drive the first clamping part 421 and the second clamping part 422 to rotate, thereby improving the continuity of the clamping action.

[0071] In some embodiments of the utility model, the first clamping portion 421 has a first clamping surface, and the second clamping portion 422 has a second clamping surface. It should be noted that the clamping surface refers to the side of the clamping portion that contacts the traffic cone when clamping the traffic cone. Among them, in the clamping state, the first clamping surface and the second clamping surface are opposite to each other, so that the first clamping surface and the second clamping surface can cooperate to stably clamp the traffic cone. Specifically, the first clamping surface and the second clamping surface can be opposite to each other along the second direction, and there can be a gap between the first clamping surface and the second clamping surface, which can facilitate clamping the traffic cone.

[0072] In the released state, the angle between the first clamping surface and the second clamping surface is not less than 90° and not more than 180°. For example, when the clamping device 40 is in the released state, the opening angle can be 100°, 130°, 150°, 180°, etc. The maximum opening angle between the first clamping surface and the second clamping surface can reach 180°. In this way, the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 have a larger opening angle, so that the clamping device 40 has a larger picking range and can improve the picking efficiency of traffic cones.

[0073] In combination with the above, by setting a fixed seat 410, the fixed seat 410 extends along the third direction, and a first hinge point 461 and a second hinge point 462 are provided on both ends of the fixed seat 410, the first clamping portion 421 is rotatably connected to the first hinge point 461, and the second clamping portion 422 is rotatably connected to the second hinge point 462. In addition, by setting a first connecting rod 431, a second connecting rod 432 and a movable seat 440, the driving member 450 drives the movable seat 440 to move along the second direction, thereby driving the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 to rotate. The structural design of the connecting rod allows the opening angle of the first clamping surface and the second clamping surface to reach 180°. The first clamping surface and the second clamping surface open at a flat angle so that the clamping device 40 has a larger picking range, thereby improving the picking efficiency of the traffic cones.

[0074] Among them, the first clamping part 421 and the second clamping part 422 can both include a clip and a rubber part. The inner side of the clip is connected to the rubber part. The clip can be a steel part, which can improve the structural strength of the first clamping part 421 and the second clamping part 422 and improve the service life. By setting the rubber part, the cone of the traffic cone can be better protected, avoiding direct contact between the steel part and the traffic cone to damage the surface of the cone, thereby extending the life of the traffic cone.

[0075] Combination Figure 7In some embodiments of the present invention, the rotation axis of the first clamping portion 421 and the rotation axis of the second clamping portion 422 are parallel to each other and extend along the first direction, wherein the first direction is the AA direction shown in the figure, the movable seat 440 is movable relative to the fixed seat 410 along the second direction, and the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other. The driving member 450 may be a telescopic cylinder, which is telescopic along the second direction and drives the movable seat 440 to move along the second direction. Through the cooperation of the connecting rod, the movable seat 440 and the fixed seat 410, the linear motion of the movable seat 440 along the second direction is converted into the rotational motion of the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422, so that the movable seat 440 drives the first clamping portion 421 and the second clamping portion 422 to expand and release each other when the movable seat 440 moves relative to the fixed seat 410 along the second direction.

[0076] Furthermore, the driving member 450 is rotatably connected to the fixed seat 410 and the movable seat 440, respectively, and the rotation axis extends along the third direction, and the third direction, the first direction, and the second direction are perpendicular to each other. Specifically, the driving member 450 can telescopically move along the first direction and can rotate along the rotation axis, which can prevent the clamping device 40 from getting stuck during the movement and ensure the continuity of the clamping action.

[0077] Taking the first direction as the up and down direction as an example, the second direction can be the front and back direction, and the third direction can be the left and right direction; the second direction can also be the left and right direction, and the third direction can be the front and back direction, etc. Of course, the above directions are only for illustration, and are not specific orientations that the clamping device 40 must have. The specific orientations of the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction can be adjusted according to the placement position of the traffic cone, the storage position of the traffic cone, etc.

[0078] Combination Figure 6 and 7 In some embodiments of the present invention, the clamping device 40 may further include a second mounting seat 470, the fixed seat 410 is connected to the second mounting seat 470 and the relative position is fixed, the driving member 450 is connected to the second mounting seat 470, and the second mounting seat 470 can serve as a fixed body of the clamping device 40 to improve the stability of the clamping device 40 during movement.

[0080] Combination Figure 6 In some embodiments of the utility model, the second mounting seat 470 may include a seat body 471 and a mounting frame 474, the seat body 471 and the mounting frame 474 are connected and fixed in relative position, the mounting frame 474 is used to fix the swing arm 20 and the clamping device 40, wherein the swing arm 20 can be configured to drive the clamping device 40 to move so as to move the clamping device 40 to an appropriate position to clamp or place a traffic cone. By setting the second mounting seat 470, the swing arm 20 can stably drive the clamping device 40 to move during the movement.

[0081] Among them, combined Figure 6 The mounting bracket 474 can be relatively fixedly connected to the second sprocket 52. During the swinging process of the swing arm 20, the mounting bracket 474 can always maintain translational movement in a space, thereby preventing the traffic cone from being twisted and damaged during the transfer process.

[0082] According to the picking component 100 of the embodiment of the utility model, the picking component 100 can move the clamping device 40 to a suitable position in a translational motion, clamp the traffic cone through the clamping device 40, or release the traffic cone, thereby completing the operation of retracting and releasing the traffic cone, which solves the problem that the traffic cone rotates with the swinging when the clamping device in the prior art retracts and releases the traffic cone, and lacks stability and orderliness when picking up.
