[0022] See also Figures 1 to 3 In an embodiment of the utility model, a nut floating positioning mechanism includes a fixing seat 1 and a rocker arm 2 assembled on the fixing seat 1. A positioning sleeve 3 is installed on the top left end of the rocker arm 2 by bolts, and a spring 8 and a positioning pin 4 are placed inside the positioning sleeve 3. Among them, the positioning pin 4 is located above the spring 8, and the top end of the positioning pin 4 extends from the top of the positioning sleeve 3 and is fixedly connected to a tray 5 for carrying a nut. The positioning sleeve 3 is loaded on the rocker arm 2 configured on the fixing seat 1, so as to facilitate the position adjustment of the positioning sleeve 3.

[0023] The front and rear sides of the positioning pin 4 are provided with threaded holes, which are symmetrically arranged. A blocking pin 6 for guiding is movably connected in each threaded hole, and a limiting assembly 7 located on the positioning sleeve 3 is arranged above each blocking pin 6. The plurality of limiting assemblies 7 are symmetrically arranged front to back. The symmetrically arranged limiting assemblies 7 correspond one to one with the symmetrically arranged blocking pins 6, so that it is convenient to synchronously drive and adjust the corresponding limiting assemblies 7 when the blocking pins 6 move.

[0024] The limiting assembly 7 includes an L-shaped plate 71 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the positioning sleeve 3 by bolts. A rectangular rod 72 is movably connected to the side wall of the L-shaped plate 71, and a clamping plate 73 is fixedly connected to the ends of the plurality of rectangular rods 72 that are close to each other, and a through slot is provided on the rectangular rod 72. A force-bearing wedge block 74 is fixedly connected in the through slot, and a force-applying wedge block 75 is slidably connected to the inclined surface of the force-bearing wedge block 74, and a connecting frame 76 is welded to the side wall of the force-applying wedge block 75. The bottom end of the connecting frame 76 passes through the bottom shell wall of the L-shaped plate 71 and is connected to the lower blocking pin 6 by bolts. The displacement adjustment of the rectangular rod 72 is achieved by the sliding connection between the force-applying wedge block 75 and the force-bearing wedge block 74 in the limiting assembly 7.

[0025] A groove is provided on the top peripheral wall of the positioning pin 4, and a magnetic reed switch for detecting the nut is arranged in the groove. Through grooves are provided on the front and rear sides of the positioning sleeve 3, and the through grooves correspond to the threaded holes one by one.

[0026] The end of the blocking pin 6 away from the positioning pin 4 passes through the through slot and is provided with a U-shaped slot. The movable connection between the blocking pin 6 and the through slot allows the positioning pin 4 to move in a directional manner in the positioning sleeve 3. The bottom of the connecting frame 76 is located in the U-shaped slot and then fixed and assembled by bolts.

[0027] A rectangular groove is provided on the side wall of the L-shaped plate 71, and the rectangular rod 72 is movably connected in the rectangular groove. A T-shaped groove is provided on the inclined surface of the force-bearing wedge block 74, and a T-shaped strip is integrally provided on the inclined surface of the force-applying wedge block 75, and the T-shaped strip is slidably connected to the T-shaped groove. The T-shaped structure used for the connection between the force-bearing wedge block 74 and the force-applying wedge block 75 enables the force-bearing wedge block 74 to synchronously drive the rectangular rod 72 with the movement of the force-applying wedge block 75.

[0028] A rectangular hole is formed on the bottom shell wall of the L-shaped plate 71 , and the bottom end of the connecting frame 76 passes through the rectangular hole.

[0029] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when positioning and placing the nut, the positioning pin 4 is first adjusted downward by the blocking pin 6 to compress the spring 8. During the downward adjustment of the blocking pin 6, the connecting frame 76 in each limit assembly 7 is pulled and adjusted, so that it synchronously drives the force wedge 75 to adjust the displacement. The movement of the force wedge 75 squeezes and forces the force wedge 74, and then during the downward adjustment of the force wedge 75, the rectangular rod 72 drives the clamping plate 73 to stretch and adjust, so as to facilitate the placement of the nut in the tray 5.

[0030] After the nut is placed, the stopper pin 6 is released. Then, under the reset action of the spring 8, the positioning pin 4 is moved upward for adjustment. The positioning pin 4 moves upward and drives the blocking pin 6 to move upward synchronously. The upward movement of the blocking pin 6 causes the connecting frame 76 to drive the force wedge 75 to move and adjust. The movement of the force wedge 75 pulls the force wedge 74 to move, and then drives the rectangular rod 72 to move, and the nuts on the tray 5 are auxiliary clamped through the clamping plate 73 thereon.

[0031] After the nuts are placed, the reed switch detects the relevant signal and sends out an OK / NG signal. The robot then grabs the nuts according to the instructions output by the reed switch.

[0032] When the manipulator touches the placed nut, its weight causes the positioning pin 4 to move downward, compressing the spring 8, and then the movement of the blocking pin 6 synchronizes the movement of each limit assembly 7 to cancel the clamping position of the nut, thereby facilitating the grasping operation.

[0033] What is described above is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
