DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in 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.

[0024] See also Figure 1 A palletizing robot arm in this embodiment includes an adjusting box 1, a robot arm body 2 is fixed to the upper surface of the adjusting box 1, a mounting plate 3 is fixed to the back of the adjusting box 1, and an adjusting mechanism 4 is provided between the adjusting box 1 and the mounting plate 3.

[0025] It should be noted that the adjustment mechanism 4 can effectively prevent the device from being subjected to external forces during operation, causing the device to deviate, thereby affecting the normal stacking operation of the device.

[0026] See also Figure 1-4In order to ensure that the device can perform the stacking work normally, the adjustment mechanism 4 in this embodiment includes a starting component, on which an adjustment component is provided. The adjustment mechanism 4 also includes a guide component. The starting component includes a motor 401 fixed to the back of the mounting plate 3. The output shaft of the motor 401 is fixed with a worm 402 having one end rotatably connected to the right side wall of the mounting plate 3 through a bearing. Two rotating holes 405 are provided on the back of the adjustment box 1. The two rotating holes 405 are rotatably connected to two adjusting rods 403 respectively. The starting component also includes two adjusting rods 403, one end of which is rotatably connected to the rear side of the mounting plate 3 through a bearing and the other end of which passes through the adjustment box 1. A worm gear 404 is fixed to the rear end of the outer surface of the adjusting rod 403. The worm gear 404 and the adjusting rod 403 are driven to rotate by the motor 401 to provide a power source for the adjustment component.

[0027] Among them, the adjustment component includes a gear 406 fixed on the front and rear sides of the outer surface of the adjustment rod 403, and the adjustment component also includes two groups of connecting rods 407 fixed between the upper and lower sides of the inner cavity of the adjustment box 1. The outer surface of the connecting rod 407 is slidably connected with a toothed plate 408. The gear 406 is meshed with the toothed plate 408, so that the gear 406 can drive the toothed plate 408 to rotate after being rotated by force. The adjustment plate 409 is slidably connected between the outer surfaces of the four connecting rods 407, so that the adjustment plate 409 can move more stably when moving. Four adjustment holes are opened on the lower surface of the adjustment box 1, and the adjustment holes are slidably connected with the universal wheel 410, so that the universal wheel 410 can move in or out of the adjustment box 1. The lower surfaces of the left and right groups of toothed plates 408 are fixed with adjustment plates 409, and the universal wheels 410 are fixed around the lower surface of the adjustment plate 409. The adjustment plate 409 and the universal wheel 410 are driven to move by the toothed plate 408, and then the position of the universal wheel 410 is adjusted.

[0028] At the same time, the guide assembly includes two guide grooves 412 opened on the left and right sides of the inner cavity of the adjustment box 1, and the inner wall of the guide groove 412 is slidably connected with a guide slider 411. The opposite sides of the two guide sliders 411 are respectively fixed to the opposite sides of the two tooth plates 408. The cross-sections of the guide groove 412 and the guide slider 411 are convex, which facilitates the guide slider 411 to always be located inside the guide groove 412 for movement, so that the tooth plate 408 is more guided when moving.

[0029] It should be noted that the starting component provides a power source for the adjusting component, and then the adjusting component cooperates with the guiding component to adjust the position of the universal wheel 410, so that the operator can effectively fix or conveniently move the device according to actual conditions.

[0030] The working principle of the above embodiment is:

[0031] First, the device is moved to the designated position through the universal wheel 410, and then the worm 402 is driven by the starting motor 401, so that the two worm wheels 404 can be driven to rotate in opposite directions, thereby respectively driving the two adjusting rods 403 to rotate in opposite directions, and then the two sets of gears 406 located on the outer surfaces of the two adjusting rods 403 rotate in opposite directions, so that the four tooth plates 408 can be prompted to move in the same direction, and then the adjusting plate 409 and the universal wheel 410 can be driven to move, and at this time the guide slider 411 follows the tooth plate 408 to move along the guide slot 412 until the universal wheel 410 By moving it into the adjusting box 1 through the adjusting hole, the lower surface of the adjusting box 1 can come into contact with the ground, so the contact area between the device and the ground increases, thereby increasing the friction between the device and the ground, allowing the device to be more stably fixed in the specified position, effectively reducing the risk of the device being offset due to external force when working, thereby affecting the normal stacking of the device and reducing its own work efficiency. At the same time, by operating according to the above principle, the universal wheel 410 can be moved to the outside of the adjusting box 1, thereby facilitating the staff to move the device conveniently when the device needs to be moved.
