[0009] As the preferred technical solution of the utility model, the limit block is symmetrically installed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the hanging plate with the center of the hanging plate as the reference, and the fixed axis passes through the adapter block and the limit block; the limit block can limit the position of the adapter block through the fixed axis.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, the adapter block is rotatably connected with the limit block via a fixed shaft, and the regulating piston is rotatably connected with the limit block via the adapter block; the adapter block can limit the position of the regulating piston.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, the movable shaft passes through the movable block and the connecting plate to form a fixed connection, and the connecting plate and the movable block are rotatably connected through the movable shaft; the movable block can facilitate the connection state between the adjustment piston and the connecting plate.
[0012] As the preferred technical solution of the utility model, the installation position of the movable shaft is staggered front and back from the position of the fixed shaft, so that the regulating pistons on the front and rear sides of the lifting plate are in a mirror-symmetrical tilted state; the movable shaft can facilitate the rotation of the connecting plate.
[0013] As the preferred technical solution of the utility model, the clamping piston is installed at the front and rear ends of the connecting plates on the left and right sides of the lifting plate in a mirror-symmetrical manner with the center of the lifting plate as the reference, and the limit plate is movably connected to the connecting plate through the clamping piston; the clamping piston can apply pressure to the object through the limit plate to increase the relative friction between the object and the rubber ring so that the object is fixed between the limit plates.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a robot tooling with a balanced structure, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. The utility model sets a tension sensor, which can monitor the tension exerted on the adjusting piston. After the object is fixed in the space between the limit plates, the adjusting piston will be subjected to a downward force. Since the installation position of the movable shaft is staggered with the position of the fixed shaft, the adjusting pistons on the front and rear sides of the lifting plate are in a tilted state that is mirror-symmetrical front and rear. The resultant force of the tension exerted by the adjusting piston on the object is located between the fixed shafts. If the center of gravity of the object is not below the center of gravity of the lifting plate, the magnitude of the force exerted on the adjusting pistons on the front and rear sides of the lifting plate will be inconsistent. The controller will control the elongation of the adjusting piston on one side according to the monitoring data of the tension sensor to change the angle between the adjusting pistons to change the position of the resultant force of the tension exerted by the adjusting piston on the object. At the same time, the connecting plate will drive the limit plate to rotate the object, so that the center of gravity of the object is located below the resultant force of the tension exerted by the adjusting piston on the object, so that the adjusting piston reaches a state of force balance.
[0017] 2. The utility model sets a pressure sensor, which is fixedly installed at the end of the clamping piston. The clamping piston is symmetrically installed on the front and rear ends of the connecting plates on the left and right sides of the lifting plate with the center of the lifting plate as the reference. The position of the limit plate is adjusted by the clamping piston to reduce the distance between the limit plates, so that the limit plates can clamp objects. The maximum value of the pressure sensor monitoring data is limited by the controller. After the rubber ring contacts the object, the pressure sensor can monitor the relative pressure between the clamping piston and the limit plate. When the monitoring data of the pressure sensor is close to the preset value of the controller, the controller will stop the clamping piston from extending further to avoid damage to the surface of the object.

[0027] The limiting blocks 11 are symmetrically installed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the hanging plate 1 with the center of the hanging plate 1 as a reference, and the fixed shaft 13 passes through the adapter block 12 and the limiting blocks 11 .
[0028] The adapter block 12 is rotatably connected to the limit block 11 via the fixed shaft 13 , and the regulating piston 14 is rotatably connected to the limit block 11 via the adapter block 12 .
[0029] The movable shaft 17 passes through the movable block 16 and the connecting plate 18 to form a fixed connection, and the connecting plate 18 is rotatably connected to the movable block 16 through the movable shaft 17 .
[0030] The installation position of the movable shaft 17 is staggered front and back from the position of the fixed shaft 13 , so that the regulating pistons 14 on the front and rear sides of the hanging plate 1 are in a tilted state that is mirror-symmetrical front and rear.
[0031] The clamping piston 19 is installed at the front and rear ends of the connecting plate 18 on the left and right sides of the hanging plate 1 symmetrically with the center of the hanging plate 1 as the reference, and the limit plate 111 is movably connected with the connecting plate 18 through the clamping piston 19.
[0032] The rubber ring 112 is fixedly mounted on the vertical surfaces opposite to the limit plates 111 on the left and right sides below the hanging plate 1 , and the controller 113 is electrically connected to the tension sensor 15 and the pressure sensor 110 .
[0033] Specifically, the lifting plate 1 can limit the position of the limit block 11, the limit block 11 can limit the position of the adapter block 12 through the fixed shaft 13, the adapter block 12 can limit the position of the adjusting piston 14, the fixed shaft 13 can facilitate the rotation of the adapter block 12, the adjusting piston 14 can adjust the angle of the connecting plate 18, the tension sensor 15 can monitor the tension exerted on the adjusting piston 14, the movable block 16 can facilitate the connection between the adjusting piston 14 and the connecting plate 18, the movable shaft 17 can facilitate the rotation of the connecting plate 18, the clamping piston 19 can apply pressure to the object through the limit plate 111 to increase the relative friction between the object and the rubber ring 112 to fix the object between the limit plate 111, the pressure sensor 110 can monitor the relative pressure between the clamping piston 19 and the limit plate 111, the limit plate 111 can facilitate the fixing of the object, the rubber ring 112 can protect the surface of the object, and the controller 113 can adjust the elongation of the adjusting piston 14 according to the monitoring data of the tension sensor 15.

Since the installation position of the movable shaft 17 is staggered front and back with the position of the fixed shaft 13, the adjusting pistons 14 on the front and rear sides of the hanging plate 1 are in a tilted state of mirror symmetry front and back. The resultant force of the tension exerted on the object by the adjusting piston 14 is located between the fixed shafts 13.

The position of the limit plate 111 is adjusted by the clamping piston 19 to reduce the distance between the limit plates 111 so that the limit plates 111 can clamp the object.
