[0046] The following is a further detailed description of the implementation of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but cannot be used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0047] In the description of the embodiments of the present utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside" and the like indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the embodiments of the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the embodiments of the present utility model. In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0048] In the description of the embodiments of the present utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0049] In the embodiments of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the first feature being "above" or "below" the second feature may mean that the first and second features are in direct contact, or the first and second features are in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Moreover, the first feature being "above", "above" and "above" the second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. The first feature being "below", "below" and "below" the second feature may mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0050] In the description of this specification, the description with reference to the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "example", "specific example", or "some examples" etc. means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the utility model embodiment. In this specification, the schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described may be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner. In addition, those skilled in the art may combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in this specification and the features of the different embodiments or examples, without contradiction.

[0051] The conventional robot arm can only grasp the target object by opening and closing the jaws, but cannot monitor the state of the target object. If a sensor is directly arranged on the jaws to detect the state of the target object, the sensor is in direct contact with the target object, which may cause the sensor to fall off.

[0052] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 The first embodiment of the utility model provides a clamping device, including a clamping body 100, a protection pad 200 and a sensor 210, the clamping body 100 includes a palm part 110 and a finger part 120, the finger part 120 is connected to the palm part 110; the protection pad 200 is arranged on at least one of the palm part 110 and the finger part 120; the sensor 210 is arranged between the protection pad 200 and the clamping body 100.

[0053] The finger part 120 is connected to the palm part 110, and the target operating object is grasped by opening and closing the finger part 120; the protection pad 200 is arranged on the palm part 110 or the finger part 120, and the protection pad 200 provides a physical barrier for the palm part 110 or the finger part 120, and serves as a buffer layer between the clamp body 100 and the target operating object, and the protection pad 200 can prevent the palm part 110 or the finger part 120 from being scratched; the sensor 210 is arranged between the protection pad 200 and the clamp body 100, and when the clamp device grasps the target operating object, the sensor 210 can detect the target operating object to obtain the state of the target operating object; in addition, the protection pad 200 can also fix the sensor 210 to prevent the sensor 210 from directly contacting the target operating object and reduce the risk of the sensor 210 falling off.

[0054] It can be understood that the sensor 210 can be directly bonded to the jaw body 100, or it can be fixed to the jaw body 100 by means of snap fastening or threaded fixing. The utility model does not particularly limit the specific fixing method of the sensor 210; the sensor 210 is arranged between the protective pad 200 and the jaw body 100, so that the sensor 210 is clamped between the protective pad 200 and the jaw body 100, which has a further fixing effect on the sensor 210; furthermore, the protective pad 200 has a shielding effect on the sensor 210, avoiding the sensor 210 from being exposed, and effectively preventing external impurities, dust, water droplets, etc. from damaging the sensor 210.

[0055] It is understandable that the protection pad 200 is disposed on the palm part 110 or the finger part 120, and the position of the protection pad 200 can be set according to the shape and size of the target operation object to better achieve the protection effect; in other embodiments, the protection pad 200 can also be disposed on both the palm part 110 and the finger part 120, and the embodiment of the utility model does not specifically limit the distribution of the protection pad 200. Generally, the protection pad 200 is disposed on the palm surface of the palm part 110 and on the side of the finger part 120 close to the palm part 110 to prevent the palm part 110 or the finger part 120 from being damaged.

[0056] See also Figures 2 to 3In one embodiment, a fixing groove 121 is provided on the inner side of the finger part 120, and the protection pad 200 is provided in the fixing groove 121; the fixing groove 121 plays the role of supporting and fixing the protection pad 200 to prevent the protection pad 200 from shifting or falling off; the setting of the fixing groove 121 can provide a positioning function for the installation of the protection pad 200, ensuring that the protection pad 200 can be quickly and accurately installed in the correct position; the inner side of the finger part 120 is the side of the finger part 120 close to the palm part 110. In addition, embedding the protection pad 200 in the fixing groove 121 can prevent the protection pad 200 from protruding from the surface of the clamp body 100, so as to ensure the flatness of the surface of the clamp body 100. The area of ​​the fixing groove 121 is greater than or equal to the area of ​​the protection pad 200, and the fixing groove 121 only needs to accommodate the protection pad 200. The embodiment of the utility model does not impose any special restrictions on the specific size of the protection pad 200.

[0057] Generally, the protective pad 200 can be made of rubber, polyurethane and other materials. The embodiment of the utility model does not specifically limit the specific material of the protective pad 200. The protective pad 200 can increase the anti-slip performance of the clamp body 100 so that the clamp device can better clamp the target object.

[0058] In one embodiment, the sensor 210 includes at least one of a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor.

[0059] It is understandable that the state of the target object may include information such as the weight, temperature, and whether the target object is grasped by the clamp. For example, the sensor 210 is a pressure sensor, and the clamp device of the embodiment of the utility model includes a driver 600. When the clamp body 100 contacts the target object, the pressure sensor transmits a signal to the driver 600 of the clamp device, and the driver 600 adjusts the pressure applied by the clamp body 100 to the target object through judgment and calculation. However, in the prior art, the pressure sensor is generally directly arranged on the clamp. Since the probe of the pressure sensor is generally small, when the target object is clamped, the probe of the pressure sensor may not contact the target object, resulting in the pressure sensor being unable to detect the state of the target object. In the embodiment of the utility model, the pressure sensor is arranged between the protection pad 200 and the clamp body 100. When the target operating object contacts the protection pad 200, the protection pad 200 transfers the pressure it receives to the pressure sensor to trigger the pressure sensor to work. The protection pad 200 can increase the contact area between the pressure sensor and the target operating object, which is beneficial for the sensor 210 to detect the state of the target operating object.

[0060] Of course, in other embodiments, the sensor 210 may also be a temperature sensor to detect the temperature of the grasped target object so that the robot arm can make a correct response.

[0061] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, a threading hole 130 is provided on the jaw body 100, and the wires of the sensor 210 are passed through the threading hole 130. The threading hole 130 guides the wires of the sensor 210 to prevent the wires from being entangled. The threading hole 130 can be connected to the inside of the jaw body 100, so that the wires of the sensor 210 are stored inside the jaw body 100 to prevent the wires of the sensor 210 from being exposed. The protective pad 200 can cover the threading hole 130 to prevent the threading hole 130 from being exposed, and prevent external impurities, dust, water droplets, etc. from entering the threading hole 130.

[0062] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the palm part 110 includes a palm seat 111 , and the finger part 120 includes a connecting knuckle 122 and a movable knuckle 123 , wherein the connecting knuckle 122 is rotatably connected to the movable knuckle 123 ; the connecting knuckle 122 is laterally arranged on the palm seat 111 .

[0063] It can be understood that the connecting knuckle 122 is suitable for fixing the finger member 120 on the palm member 110, and the movable knuckle 123 is suitable for clamping the target operation object; the connecting knuckle 122 is arranged horizontally on the palm seat 111, and while the finger member 120 is connected to the palm member 110, the palm surface of the clamping device can be widened to adapt to target operation objects of different sizes and shapes, thereby improving the adaptability and gripping force of the clamp body 100. The movable knuckle 123 can be arranged at the end of the connecting knuckle 122, and the movable knuckle 123 protrudes from the palm surface of the clamp body 100, so that the movable knuckle 123 can apply force to the target operation object.

[0064] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 , a first cavity 1221 may be provided inside the connecting knuckle 122, and a first drive motor 1222 may be provided inside the first cavity 1221. The first drive motor 1222 is adapted to drive the movable knuckle 123 to move, so that the movable knuckle 123 completes the clamping work. The first drive motor 1222 is provided in the first cavity 1221, so that the driving part of the movable knuckle 123 of each finger component 120 is provided in a separate accommodation space. When a certain finger component 120 is damaged, the corresponding connecting component can be disassembled for maintenance without disassembling the entire palm seat 111, thus saving troubleshooting time and making the maintenance process more targeted. The first drive motor 1222 is provided in the first cavity 1221 of the connecting knuckle 122, and the connecting knuckle 122 is rotationally connected to the movable knuckle 123, which is more conducive to the direct control of the movable knuckle 123 by the first drive motor 1222.

[0065] In addition, the extension direction of the output shaft of the first drive motor 1222 is the same as the length direction of the connecting finger joint 122; since the motor is generally long and the output shaft of the motor is arranged at the end of the motor, the extension direction of the output shaft of the first motor is the same as the length direction of the connecting finger joint 122, and the internal space of the connecting finger joint 122 can be fully utilized to reduce space waste; the size of the first cavity 1221 can be set to just accommodate the first drive motor 1222, and there is no need to set additional fixings inside the first cavity 1221 to fix the first drive motor 1222.

[0066] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the palm member 110 further includes a palm cover 112, which is disposed on the palm seat 111. The palm cover 112 forms a protective barrier for the palm member 110. The palm cover 112 can bear the impact force of the target operating object and other external forces to prevent the internal components of the palm member 110 from being directly damaged.

[0067] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 In one embodiment, the connecting knuckle 122 is arranged between the palm cover 112 and the palm seat 111; the palm seat 111 supports the connecting knuckle 122, and the palm cover 112 is arranged on the connecting knuckle 122, which is conducive to further fixing the connecting knuckle 122; furthermore, the palm cover 112 can cover the connecting knuckle 122, and the palm surface of the palm cover 112 is a flat surface, which can improve the flatness of the palm surface of the palm part 110, increase the contact area between the palm part 110 and the target operation object, and facilitate the grasping of the target operation object; for example, the palm cover 112 is a flat cover.

[0068] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the protection pad 200 is disposed on the palm cover 112, which can accurately protect the palm part 110. The sensor 210 can be disposed between the protection pad 200 and the palm cover 112 to timely detect the state of the grasped target object; if the sensor 210 is a pressure sensor, the gripper device is turned over so that the palm cover 112 supports the grasped target object, and the weight of the grasped target object can be measured by the pressure sensor disposed on the palm cover 112. A limit groove or depression can be disposed on the palm cover 112 to fix the protection pad 200 and prevent the protection pad 200 from shifting.

[0069] See also Figure 2In one embodiment, the palm cover 112 is round, and the edge of the round palm cover 112 is relatively soft, which can provide a certain buffering effect, reduce the impact force, and avoid damage to the target operation object; the round palm cover 112 is in direct contact with the target operation object to form a round palm surface, and the contact points between the round palm surface and the target operation object are at different positions on the surface of the target operation object, so that the palm part 110 can distribute the pressure more evenly when grasping the target operation object, thereby reducing the risk of deformation of the target operation object.

[0070] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 In one embodiment, at least two movable knuckles 123 are provided. By providing multiple movable knuckles 123 and connecting multiple movable knuckles 123 in pairs, the flexibility and adjustability of the finger body can be improved, and the fine control ability of the finger can be improved to provide more accurate operation. By providing multiple movable knuckles 123, the finger body can wrap the target operation object more tightly to adapt to target operation objects of different shapes, and increase the stability and gripping force of the finger body. Each finger component 120 can be provided with one, two, three or four movable knuckles 123. The embodiment of the utility model does not specifically limit the number of movable knuckles 123 of the finger body.

[0071] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the movable knuckle 123 at the end is a finger 125. The finger 125 serves as a contact point between the clamp body 100 and the target object, and can provide sufficient gripping force so that the clamp device can firmly grasp the object.

[0072] See also Figures 2 to 3 It can be understood that, when multiple movable knuckles 123 are provided, a second cavity 1231 can be provided inside the movable knuckle 123, and a second drive motor 1232 is provided inside the second cavity 1231. The second drive motor 1232 is used to drive the movable knuckle 123 on the lower side along the power transmission direction to move, so that the movable knuckle 123 can be more flexible in movement.

[0073] See also Figures 2 to 4Generally, the driver 600 of the clamping device is arranged inside the palm seat 111. In order to fix the driver 600, a fixing plate 610 is also arranged inside the palm seat 111, and the driver 600 is fixedly arranged on the fixing plate 610; the first cavity 1221, the second cavity 1231 and the palm seat 111 are connected in sequence, and the threading hole 130 on the finger part 120 is connected to the first cavity 1221, so that the wires of the sensor 210 arranged on the finger part 120 are connected to the inside of the palm seat 111 through the first cavity 1221 and the second cavity 1231. When the sensor 210 is connected with the driver 600, the wires are prevented from being exposed, which may cause the risk of wire entanglement. Similarly, the threading hole 130 may also be arranged on the palm cover 112 to prevent the wires of the sensor 210 from being exposed.

[0074] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the finger 125 is in the form of a sheet. The sheet-shaped finger 125 is relatively thin and light, and can be operated in a limited space while saving materials to provide more precise control. For example, when clamping an object such as a plate, since the gap between the plate and the table is small, the sheet-shaped finger 125 can extend into the gap between the plate and the table to clamp the plate.

[0075] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, a protection pad 200 is provided on the finger 125 to enhance the anti-slip effect of the finger 125 and prevent the target operation object from falling off or loosening during clamping.

[0076] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 In one embodiment, at least one finger part 120 is rotatably connected to the palm part 110, and the finger part 120 rotates around the palm part 110, so that the position of the finger part 120 can be changed to form different gripping postures, thereby adapting to the manipulation of different objects. For example, the finger part 120 includes a fixed finger 127 and two movable fingers 128, the fixed finger 127 is fixedly set on the palm part 110, and the movable fingers 128 rotate relative to the palm part 110 to form a state of juxtaposition, opposing fingers, enveloping fingers or T-shaped fingers; wherein, as Figure 1 As shown, in the combined finger state, three finger members 120 are arranged in parallel and adjacent finger members 120 are close to each other, which is convenient for moving the target operation object; Figure 5 As shown, in the finger-to-finger state, three finger parts 120 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the palm part 110, so as to facilitate the clamping of the target operation object; Figure 6 As shown, the enveloping finger state is that the three finger parts 120 are arranged approximately equidistantly on the peripheral side of the palm part 110 to form an enveloping posture, which is convenient for applying force in the circumferential direction of the target operation object and is conducive to clamping the target operation object; Figure 7As shown, the T-finger state means that the three finger components 120 are roughly in a T-shaped posture, which is conducive to providing better gripping force and improving the clamping effect.

[0077] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, a first mounting groove 124 is provided on the palm side of the palm part 110, and a first connecting shaft 126 is provided on the finger part 120. The first connecting shaft 126 can be rotatably mounted on the first mounting groove 124 through a bearing, so as to facilitate the rotatable connection between the finger part 120 and the palm part 110.

[0078] See also Figure 2 and Figure 8 The clamping device also includes a transmission component 300 and a driving component 400. The transmission component 300 includes an active component 310 and two driven components 320. The driving component 400, the active component 310 and the driven components 320 are power-coupled in sequence; the output shaft of the driving component 400 is connected to the active component 310, and the driven components 320 are fixedly connected to the active fingers 128 respectively.
