[0028] Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides an inverted manipulator, including a clamping block 10, a left-right displacement assembly 20, an up-and-down displacement assembly 30 and a front-and-back displacement assembly 40.

[0030] At the same time Figure 2 As shown, the clamping block 10 is connected to the left-right displacement assembly 20, and the left-right displacement assembly 20 includes left-right beams 21 and a first slider 22. The clamping block 10 is fixedly arranged at both ends of the left-right beams 21. The left-right beams 21 are fixedly provided with a first guide rail 23, and the first slider 22 is slidably connected to the first guide rail 23. At the same time, the left-right beams 21 are also provided with a first rack 24, and the first slider 22 is provided with a first gear 25 and a first motor 26. The first gear 25 is meshed with the first rack 24, and the first motor 26 is transmission-connected with the first gear 25 (through a reducer, etc.) to drive the first gear 25 to rotate, so that the first gear 25 moves along the first rack 24, and the first slider 22 is displaced relative to the left-right beams 21.

[0031] The first slider 22 is connected to the up-and-down displacement assembly 30 , so when the first motor 26 is driven, the left and right beams 21 and the clamping block 10 can move left and right to adjust the left and right positions to clamp the object.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment, in this embodiment, a limit base 27 is further provided on the left and right beams 21, and a first anti-collision block 28 is provided on the first slider 22. The first anti-collision block 28 corresponds to the limit base 27 to limit the range of movement of the first slider 22 relative to the first guide rail 23, that is, the range of left and right movement of the left and right beams 21, to prevent them from leaving the device. Among them, a limit rubber pad made of elastic material can be provided on the limit base 27 to buffer and avoid hard collision.

[0033] At the same time Figure 3 As shown, the up-down displacement assembly 30 includes a column 31, a second guide rail 32 arranged on the column 31, and a screw drive mechanism arranged on the column 31. Among them, a second slider 33 is slidably arranged on the second guide rail 32, and the second slider 33 is fixedly connected to the first slider 22. The screw drive mechanism includes a screw rod 34, a nut 35 and a second motor 36, the screw rod 34 is rotatably connected to the column 31, the second motor 36 is transmission-connected to the screw rod 34 (through a reducer, etc.) to drive the screw rod 34 to rotate, and the nut 35 is fixedly connected to the first slider 22 and is threadedly matched with the screw rod 34, so that the first slider 22 is driven to move by the rotation of the screw rod 34. Based on the fact that the second guide rail 32, the screw rod 34, etc. are all arranged in the up-down direction, the left-right displacement assembly 20 can be driven to move up and down. It should be noted that in order to improve the compactness of the structure, the screw drive mechanism is arranged inside the column 31 as a whole, and a groove is provided on one side of the column 31, through which the nut 35 can be connected to the first slider 22.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment, the up and down displacement assembly 30 in this embodiment also includes a gravity balancing mechanism, which includes a balancing cylinder 37. The piston rod end of the balancing cylinder 37 is connected to the column 31, and the cylinder body of the balancing cylinder 37 is connected to the first slider 22. The air pressure of the balancing cylinder 37 is used to offset a portion of the gravity on the first slider 22, so that the screw drive mechanism can more reliably and smoothly drive the first slider up and down, and the reliability is significantly improved, especially for heavy objects.

[0035] At the same time Figure 4 As shown, the front-to-back displacement assembly 40 includes a front-to-back arm 41 and a front-to-back mounting seat 42. The front-to-back arm 41 is provided with a third guide rail 43, on which a third slider 44 is slidably provided, and the third slider 44 is fixedly connected to the front-to-back mounting seat 42, and the front-to-back mounting seat 42 is used to mount the column 31 of the up-down displacement assembly 30. The front-to-back arm 41 is also provided with a third rack 45, and the front-to-back mounting seat 42 is provided with a third gear 46 and a third motor 47, the third gear 46 is meshed with the third rack 45, and the third motor 47 is transmission-connected with the third gear 46 (through a reducer, etc.) to drive the third gear 46 to rotate, so that the third gear 46 moves along the third rack 45, and the front-to-back mounting seat 42 is displaced relative to the front-to-back arm 41.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment, in this embodiment, a third anti-collision block 48 is further provided on the front and rear arms 41 to limit the range of movement of the front and rear mounting seats 42 relative to the third guide rail 43, that is, the range of forward and backward movement of the front and rear mounting seats 42 to prevent them from detaching from the device. Of course, a soft cushion or the like can also be provided on the third anti-collision block 48 to prevent hard collision.

[0037] In this embodiment, the third guide rail 43, the third rack 45, etc. are arranged on the outer surface of the front and rear arms 41. The front and rear displacement assembly 40 also includes a front and rear beam 49, the ends of which are fixedly connected to the front and rear arms 41 to connect the front and rear arms 41 at the front and rear positions into one body, and the front and rear clamping blocks 10 can be in a suitable adjustment range to clamp the object in the middle. At the same time, a top clamp 410 is also provided on the front and rear beam 49, and the top clamp 410 enables the entire manipulator to be installed upside down.

[0038] In summary, the inverted manipulator provided in this embodiment can adjust the position of the clamping block 10 through the setting of the left and right displacement components 20, the up and down displacement components 30 and the front and back displacement components 40, so that large objects can be clamped more stably. At the same time, the reliability of the manipulator is further improved by the setting of the balancing cylinder 37, anti-collision blocks, etc.

[0039] The technical features of the above embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0040] The above embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application shall be subject to the attached claims.
