DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] The technical solution of the utility model will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0027] A towel grabbing manipulator for a fully automatic towel machine, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it includes a bracket 1, a horizontal moving frame 2, and a horizontal driving member 3. A guide rail 11 arranged in the horizontal direction is fixed on the bracket 1, and a slider 12 is fixed on the horizontal moving frame 2. The slider 12 is slidably connected to the guide rail 11, so that the horizontal moving frame 2 can move in the horizontal direction on the bracket 1. The horizontal driving member 3 is a cylinder, whose body is fixed on the bracket 1, and the piston rod is connected to the horizontal moving frame 2. The piston rod is extended and retracted to drive the horizontal moving frame 2 to move.
[0028] The horizontal moving frame 2 is provided with a clamping jaw 4, which includes an upper jaw 41 and a lower jaw 42. The upper jaw 41 is hinged on the horizontal moving frame 2, and the lower jaw 42 is fixed on the horizontal moving frame 2. Two guide members 5 are arranged on both sides of the upper jaw 41, and each guide member 5 includes a shaft body 51 fixed on the upper jaw 41 and a bearing 52 installed on the shaft body 51. The bracket 1 is fixed with two guide plates 6, which are distributed on both sides of the upper jaw 41. A guide slide 7 is provided on each guide plate 6. The bearing 52 of the guide member 5 is embedded in the guide slide 7. The guide slide 7 includes a forward slide 71 and a return slide 72. When the guide member 5 is located in the forward slide 71, the upper jaw 41 is away from the lower jaw 42. When the guide member 5 is located in the return slide 72, the upper jaw 41 is pressed on the lower jaw 42.
[0029] The guide slide 7 also includes a guide slide 73, the inlet of the guide slide 73 is connected to the return slide 72, and the outlet is connected to the forward slide 71. The inner wall of the guide slide 7 is hinged with a guide plate 74, which blocks the inlet of the guide slide 73, and the lower end of the guide plate 74 contacts the inner wall of the return slide 72.
[0030] Furthermore, there is only one guide slide 73 in each guide slide 7 .
[0031] Furthermore, the guide slide 73 faces the forward slide 71. The guide slide 73 is lower than the return slide 72. The guide plate 6 is made of metal.
[0032] Working principle: the horizontal driving member 3 drives the horizontal moving frame to move and approach the towel belt. At this time, the guide member 5 is located in the forward slide 71, and the upper claw 41 and the lower claw 42 are separated. Until the towel belt is located between the upper claw 41 and the lower claw 42, the horizontal driving member 3 drives the horizontal moving frame 2 away from the towel belt. In this process, the guide member 5 enters the return slide 72 from the forward slide 71, and the upper claw 41 is pressed on the lower claw 42 under the action of its own gravity. The two clamp the towel belt and drive the towel belt to move, thereby realizing the grabbing and pulling of the towel belt.
