Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mechanical engineering, in particular to a fixing and clamping mechanism of a full-automatic palletizer. Background Art

[0002] For the fixed clamping mechanism of the fully automatic palletizer, this is a key component in the equipment specially used for automatic handling and stacking of goods. Its main function is to realize the efficient and accurate grasping and placement of materials on the industrial production line. This clamping mechanism is usually composed of an actuator at the end of the robot arm, which can adjust the clamping force and position as needed to adapt to different operating requirements.

[0003] However, in practical applications, one challenge faced by this mechanism is how to achieve stable and efficient clamping and handling of objects of different sizes and shapes. Due to the diversity and complexity of objects, it is very difficult to design a clamping device that can flexibly adapt to various situations. This not only requires the clamping mechanism to have sufficient flexibility and adaptability, but also needs to consider maintaining the stability of the object during handling to avoid problems such as falling or damage caused by improper clamping.

[0004] Therefore, a fixed clamping mechanism for a fully automatic palletizer is proposed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to solve the problems of unstable palletizing and loose clamping in the prior art, and proposes a fixed clamping mechanism for a full-automatic palletizer.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] Preferably, the adsorption structure is made of magnetic material, and the adsorption and release of the small barrel are achieved through an electromagnetic control switch, which solves the problem of damage to the barrel body caused by traditional mechanical clamping. At the same time, the magnetic adsorption method can ensure the stability and safety of the barrel body during transportation.

[0009] Preferably, the elastic component is a rubber gasket, which is installed between the adsorption structure and the contact surface of the barrel body. It absorbs collision energy through elastic deformation, effectively preventing the barrel body from being damaged due to excessive impact force when being quickly adsorbed.

[0010] Preferably, the cylinders on the left and right sides are connected to the extrusion plates through a connecting rod mechanism. When the adsorption is completed, the cylinders push the connecting rods to make the extrusion plates move closer to the center.

[0011] Preferably, the straightening device is provided with a guide wheel. When the barrel body is adsorbed and lifted, the guide wheel contacts the outer wall of the barrel body and automatically adjusts the barrel body posture through friction. The straightening device is provided with a sliding component.

[0012] Preferably, the pore size of the adsorption structure is customized according to the specific size of the small barrel, so that the barrel body and the adsorption structure fit tightly during adsorption, and the surface of the adsorption structure is covered with a layer of anti-slip material, such as rubber or polyurethane, which increases the friction coefficient between the barrel body and the adsorption structure.

[0013] Preferably, the cylinders on the left and right sides adopt a synchronous control system to ensure that the cylinders on both sides move in unison.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages:

[0015] By customizing the aperture size of the adsorption structure and using elastic components such as rubber washers, it is possible to ensure that the clamping mechanism can adapt to objects of different sizes. Whether it is a small barrel or objects of other shapes, they can be stably clamped, ensuring the consistency of the cylinder movements on both sides and improving the clamping efficiency. At the same time, the magnetic adsorption method achieved by the electromagnetic control switch can respond quickly and improve the handling efficiency. The anti-slip material on the surface of the adsorption structure and the guide wheels in the righting device can ensure that the objects remain stable during the handling process, and the barrel can be righted to avoid safety hazards caused by shaking or tilting.

[0020] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0021] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-3 The fixed clamping mechanism of the fully automatic palletizer includes an installation box 1, which is usually made of high-strength steel or aluminum alloy to ensure sufficient strength and rigidity. The outer walls at both ends of the installation box 1 are fixedly connected with cylinders 5, that is, thrust can be generated in two directions by compressed air. The cylinder 5 is fixedly connected with an extrusion plate 6, and the inner wall of the installation box 1 is fixedly connected with an adsorption structure 3. A plurality of adsorption holes 4 are arranged on the surface of the adsorption structure 3. The outer wall of the adsorption structure 3 is fixedly connected with an elastic component, and the inner wall of the installation box 1 is fixedly connected with a straightening device 7.

[0023] The adsorption structure 3 is made of magnetic material and realizes the adsorption and release of the small barrel through an electromagnetic control switch, which solves the problem that the traditional mechanical clamping may cause damage to the barrel body. At the same time, the magnetic adsorption method can ensure the stability and safety of the barrel body during transportation.

[0024] The elastic component is a rubber gasket, which is installed between the adsorption structure 3 and the contact surface of the barrel body. It absorbs collision energy through elastic deformation, effectively avoiding the barrel body from being damaged due to excessive impact force when being quickly adsorbed.

[0025] The cylinders 5 on the left and right sides are connected to the extrusion plate 6 through a connecting rod mechanism. When the adsorption is completed, the cylinder 5 pushes the connecting rod to make the extrusion plate 6 move closer to the center, thereby applying a clamping force to the barrel body, enhancing the reliability of the clamping and preventing the barrel body from shaking and falling off during transportation.

[0026] The straightening device 7 is provided with a guide wheel 8. When the barrel body is adsorbed and lifted, the guide wheel 8 contacts the outer wall of the barrel body and automatically adjusts the barrel body posture through friction. The straightening device 7 is provided with a sliding component 9 to ensure that the barrel body always remains upright, thereby improving the stacking accuracy and efficiency.

[0027] The pore size of the adsorption structure 3 is customized according to the specific size of the small barrel, so that the barrel body and the adsorption structure 3 fit closely during adsorption, reducing the possibility of air leakage, thereby enhancing the adsorption effect and ensuring the stability of the barrel body during transportation. The surface of the adsorption structure 3 is covered with a layer of anti-slip material, such as rubber or polyurethane, which increases the friction coefficient between the barrel body and the adsorption structure 3. Even when there is a small amount of liquid on the surface of the barrel body, it can maintain good adsorption performance, thereby improving the ability of the equipment to adapt to complex environments.

[0028] The cylinders 5 on the left and right sides adopt a synchronous control system to ensure that the cylinders 5 on both sides move in unison.

[0029] The specific working principle of the utility model is as follows:

[0030] In the initial state, during the actual operation, when this device is used, the fixed clamping mechanism of the fully automatic palletizer is first fixed on the working arm of the palletizer through the installation box 1. When a small barrel needs to be grabbed, the electromagnetic control switch on the adsorption structure 3 is activated to generate sufficient magnetic force to adsorb the barrel body. At this time, the multiple adsorption holes 4 on the surface of the adsorption structure 3 form a good contact with the surface of the barrel body to ensure the stability of adsorption. In order to further improve the safety, the rubber gasket is installed between the contact surface of the adsorption structure 3 and the barrel body as an elastic component. When the barrel body is quickly adsorbed, the rubber gasket absorbs the collision energy through its own elastic deformation to avoid damage to the barrel body. Then, the cylinders 5 on the left and right sides are connected to the extrusion plate 6 through a connecting rod mechanism. When the adsorption is completed, the cylinder 5 starts to work and pushes the connecting rod to make the extrusion plate 6 move closer to the center, thereby tightly clamping the barrel body. In order to ensure the consistency of the movements of the cylinders 5 on both sides, the same The step control system ensures that the cylinders 5 on both sides can work in a coordinated manner to avoid the barrel body from tilting or being damaged due to uneven forces on both sides. During the lifting of the barrel body, the guide wheel 8 in the straightening device 7 contacts the outer wall of the barrel body and automatically adjusts the posture of the barrel body through friction to ensure that the barrel body always remains upright and can quickly restore balance even if it encounters slight shaking during transportation. In addition, the aperture size of the adsorption structure 3 is customized according to the specific size of the small barrel, so that the barrel body fits tightly with the adsorption structure 3 during adsorption. A layer of anti-slip material such as rubber or polyurethane covering the surface further increases the friction coefficient between the barrel body and the adsorption structure 3 to ensure the stability and safety of the barrel body during transportation. During the whole process, the various components work together to not only achieve effective fixation and transportation of the small barrel, but also minimize possible damage to the barrel body during transportation, thereby improving the efficiency and quality of the palletizing operation.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
