[0027] In this embodiment: the clamping mechanism includes a rotating arm 201 rotatably arranged at the upper end of the rotating arm 106, an adjusting motor 202 is installed at the rotating end of the rotating arm 201, a fixed column 205 is slidably installed below the rotating arm 201, a fixed frame 207 is fixed at the lower end of the fixed column 205, a bidirectional threaded rod 209 is rotatably installed in the fixed frame 207, two symmetrical clamping plates 210 are slidably installed in the fixed frame 207, the clamping plates 210 are threadedly connected with the bidirectional threaded rod 209, a rotating motor 206 is provided at the lower end of the fixed column 205, a bevel gear 208 is fixed at the output end of the rotating motor 206 and the center of the bidirectional threaded rod 209, the two bevel gears 208 are meshed, a support plate 211 is fixed at the lower end of the clamping plate 210, the support plate 211 is wedge-shaped, and an anti-slip component is provided on the side wall of the clamping plate 210.

[0028] The anti-skid assembly includes a fixed bin 212 fixedly arranged on the side wall of the clamping plate 210, and the two fixed bins 212 are provided with a lower oil chamber 213 on the side away from each other, and a lower piston plate 214 is slidably installed in the lower oil chamber 213, and a tension spring is connected between the lower piston plate 214 and the inner wall of the lower oil chamber 213, and an anti-skid plate 215 is rotatably installed on the side of the two fixed bins 212 close to each other, and a torsion spring is connected between the rotating end of the anti-skid plate 215 and the fixed bin 212, and the anti-skid plate 215 is tilted, and a pull rope 216 is connected between the anti-skid plate 215 and the lower piston plate 214, and a lower guide wheel 217 is provided in the middle position of the pull rope 216, and the lower guide wheel 217 is rotatably connected to the fixed bin 212, and an upper oil chamber 203 is provided at the lower end of the rotating arm 201, and a sliding spring is installed inside the upper oil chamber 203. There is an upper piston plate 204, a fixed column 205 is fixedly connected to the upper piston plate 204, a compression spring is connected between the upper piston plate 204 and the bottom wall of the upper oil chamber 203, a retractable oil hose 218 is connected between the upper oil chamber 203 and the lower oil chamber 213, an upper guide wheel 219 is provided in the middle of the oil hose 218, the upper guide wheel 219 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 207, and the workpiece is clamped and fixed by the clamping mechanism. When the clamped workpiece shakes momentarily during transportation, the anti-slip component is used to further clamp and fix the side wall of the workpiece and exert an upward supporting force on the workpiece to prevent the workpiece from sliding down. The heavier the workpiece, the greater the clamping force on the workpiece, thereby improving the stability of the clamped workpiece during transportation and reducing the occurrence of loosening or falling off.

[0029] Working principle: First, drive the moving motor 102 to drive the lead screw 103 to rotate, drive the sliding seat 104 to move, and then drive the rotating arm 106 to move, so as to adjust the clamping position of the workpiece, and then drive the rotating motor 107 to drive the rotating arm 106 to rotate, and then drive the adjusting motor 202 to drive the rotating arm 201 to rotate, so as to adjust the clamping angle of the workpiece.

[0030] Then, the rotating motor 206 is started to drive the bevel gear 208 to rotate, meshing with the bevel gear 208 on the bidirectional threaded rod 209, thereby driving the bidirectional threaded rod 209 to rotate, and then driving the two clamping plates 210 to move toward each other, and driving the two supporting plates 211 to move toward each other to lift the bottom end of the workpiece upward until the bottom end of the workpiece moves to the uppermost end of the supporting plate 211, so that the two clamping plates 210 are completely in contact with the side wall of the workpiece, thereby completing the clamping and fixation of the workpiece.

[0031] Then the clamped workpiece is moved and transported. When the clamped workpiece is subjected to instantaneous shaking during transportation, the upper piston plate 204 will be driven to move downward in the upper oil chamber 203, and the hydraulic oil in the lower oil chamber 213 will be pumped into the upper oil chamber 203 by means of the oil hose 218, thereby driving the lower piston plate 214 to slide in the lower oil chamber 213 away from the side of the anti-slip plate 215, and pulling the pull rope 216 will drive the anti-slip plate 215 to rotate counterclockwise, and then the lower end of the anti-slip plate 215 will rotate upward to further clamp and fix the side wall of the workpiece while applying an upward supporting force. The heavier the workpiece, the greater the downward displacement of the upper piston plate 204, and the greater the clamping force of the anti-slip plate 215 on the workpiece, thereby improving the stability of the clamped workpiece during transportation and reducing the occurrence of loosening or falling off.

[0032] When unloading the workpiece, the two clamping plates 210 are disengaged from the workpiece, so that the workpiece slowly falls downward under the support of the two support plates 211, thereby preventing the workpiece from falling to the ground without the support of the support plates 211 and causing damage to the workpiece.

[0033] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected.
