A movable groove 7 for easy flexible adjustment is opened at one end of the mechanical arm 1. The inner wall of the movable groove 7 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the slave gear 8. The top screw of the mechanical arm 1 is connected to a driving motor 2 for providing power. The driving motor 2 passes through the bottom of the mechanical arm 1 and is connected to a main gear 12. The side wall of the main gear 12 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 7. The main gear 12 is meshingly connected to the slave gear 8. By controlling the rotation of the driving motor 2, the main gear 12 connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 2 is driven to rotate inside the movable groove 7. The rotation of the main gear 12 drives the rotation of the meshingly connected slave gear 8. Because the back-to-back sides of the main gear 12 and the slave gear 8 are welded with a connecting rod 3 for easy fixation, the rotation of the main gear 12 and the slave gear 8 facilitates the adjustment of the spatial spacing between the two fixedly connected connecting rods 3, thereby enabling the mechanical arm to adjust the spacing of the connecting rods 3 according to the size of the packaged articles, which is convenient for use.
[0029] A long rod-shaped connecting rod 3 for easy adjustment is welded on the opposite sides of the main gear 12 and the slave gear 8. The side wall of the connecting rod 3 is slidably connected to the movable groove 7. A connecting block for easy fixation is welded at the end of the long rod 3 away from the movable groove 7.

Under the action of the fixed shaft 13, the connection between the adapter block and the fixed frame 10 is completed. The bottom of the fixed frame 10 is welded to the side wall of the long rod 5. Under the telescopic action of the moving part of the electric push rod 15, the long rod 5 is driven to rotate relative to the connecting rod 3. Two fixed blocks 4 for easy connection are welded on the other side of the connecting block. The opposite side of the fixed block 4 is rotatably connected to one end of the long rod 5. A pin shaft 14 is provided on the top of the fixed block 4. The pin shaft 14 passes through the fixed block 4 and is rotatably connected to one end of the long rod 5.
[0031] The other end of the long rod 5 is welded with two linear motors 9 for easy adjustment. The moving parts of the two linear motors 9 are respectively welded with a first clamping plate 6 and a second clamping plate 16 for clamping, and a triangular auxiliary plate 17 is welded on one side of the moving part of the linear motor 9. The auxiliary plate 17 is fixed to the first clamping plate 6 and the second clamping plate 16 to control the movement of the moving part of the linear motor 9, complete the relative movement of the first clamping plate 6 and the second clamping plate 16, complete the clamping and fixation of the object, and facilitate operation.
[0032] The large packaged articles can also be clamped by the movement of the moving parts of the two linear motors 9 arranged on both sides, and the flexible use method improves the adaptability of the device to the packaging sizes of articles of different sizes.
