The mounting base 22 is fixedly mounted on a rotating seat 2111 of the posture cylinder 211. The mounting base 22 is provided with suction cups 23 arranged in an array. The mounting base 22 is also provided with a clamp 24, and the clamp 24 is detachably mounted on the mounting base 22.

[0032] The transplanting assembly 1 includes an X-axis mover 11, a Y-axis mover 12 and a Z-axis mover 13. The X-axis mover 11 is fixedly mounted on a frame 14, the Y-axis mover 12 is fixedly mounted on a first moving seat of the X-axis mover 11, the Z-axis mover 13 is fixedly mounted on a second moving seat of the Y-axis mover 12, and the connecting arm 21 is fixedly mounted on a third moving seat of the Z-axis mover 13, so as to realize the X-axis movement, Y-axis movement and Z-axis movement of the grasping assembly 2.

[0033] The clamping jaw 24 is provided with a connecting plate 241, which is fixedly mounted on the mounting substrate 22 by screws. The mounting substrate 22 is provided with a notch 221 for mounting the clamping jaw 24, and a groove corresponding to the position of the connecting plate 241 is provided on the side wall of the notch 221. When the clamping jaw 24 is installed, the connecting plate 241 slides into the groove on the side wall of the notch 221, and then the connecting plate 241 is fixedly mounted on the mounting substrate 22 by screws, thereby improving the connection strength of the connecting plate 241.

[0034] An arc-shaped end surface 2411 is provided on one side of the connecting plate 241 , so that the connecting plate 241 can be easily inserted into the groove on the side wall of the notch 221 to avoid collision damage.

[0035] The suction cup 23 is detachably mounted on the mounting base plate 22. The suction cup 23 can be installed in the same manner as the clamping jaw 24 to achieve detachability, so as to facilitate adjusting the number of suction cups for clamping according to the blanking requirements of different products.

[0036] Working principle: When the injection molding machine opens the mold, the robot grabs and unloads the product. The connecting arm 21 moves to the product on the injection molding machine mold through the transfer component 1, and the mounting base plate 22 is rotated by the attitude cylinder 211 to adjust the orientation of the mounting base plate 22. The product is grabbed synchronously through the suction cup 23 and the clamping claw 24 on the mounting base plate 22. After that, the grabbing component 2 is moved out of the injection molding machine through the transfer component 1 to realize the discharge. When the robot is picking up and placing products with uneven surfaces that are not convenient for the suction cup to be sucked up, and products that are easy to fall when only sucked up by the suction cup, the suction cup 23 and the clamping claw 24 are synchronously positioned to effectively grab the product and prevent it from falling. The clamping claw 24 is designed to be detachable and can be flexibly arranged and disassembled according to needs.
