For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0024] In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are mainly used to distinguish different devices, elements or components (the specific types and structures may be the same or different), and are not used to indicate or imply the relative importance and quantity of the indicated devices, elements or components. Unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.

[0025] The technical solution of the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the embodiments and drawings.

[0026] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, an automobile glass grabbing device according to an embodiment of the utility model comprises a lifting assembly 1 and a grabbing assembly 2;

[0027] The grabbing assembly 2 is installed at the power output end of the lifting assembly 1. The grabbing assembly 2 includes a base 21, a grabbing plate 22, a first driving member 23, and a vacuum generator 24. The first driving member 23 and the vacuum generator 24 are both installed on the base 21. The power output end of the first driving member 23 is connected to the grabbing plate 22, which is used to drive the grabbing plate 22 to rotate. A plurality of suction cups 25 are arranged on the grabbing plate 22 at intervals, and the plurality of suction cups 25 are connected to the vacuum generator 24. A plurality of detection switches 26 are arranged on the grabbing plate 22, and the detection switch 26 is used to detect whether the glass is in place.

[0028] Based on the above technical solution, a plurality of suction cups 25 are arranged at intervals on the grab plate 22, and the plurality of suction cups 25 are connected to the vacuum generator 24. The plurality of suction cups 25 are connected to a vacuum generator 24. Whether the grab assembly 2 can stably grab the automobile glass can be judged by whether the air pressure value of the vacuum generator 24 is stable. If the air pressure value of the vacuum generator 24 is always in an unstable state, it can be judged that there is a gap between the suction cup 25 and the automobile glass or the suction cup 25 has a leakage phenomenon. At this time, the suction cup 25 cannot stably grab the automobile glass, and there is a risk of the automobile glass falling. Under the premise that the air pressure of the vacuum generator 24 remains stable, the detection switch 26 detects whether the automobile glass is in place. Since general automobile glasses have a certain curvature, as long as the position of the detection switch 26 is set, if the grabbing position of the automobile glass is consistent each time it is grabbed, the detection switch 26 can detect that the automobile glass is in place. If the detection switch 26 detects that the automobile glass is not in place, it means that the grabbing position is incorrect. Therefore, setting the detection switch 26 can ensure the consistency of the grabbing of the grab assembly 2.

[0029] Preferably, if Figure 3 As shown, the detection switch 26 includes a first body 261 and a detection portion 262. The first body 261 is detachably mounted on the grab plate 22. The detection portion 262 is slidably disposed on the first body 261 along a first direction. In the first direction, one end of the detection portion 262 away from the first body 261 has a detection head 2631. The detection head 2631 is disposed protruding from the suction cup 25 in the first direction.

[0030] The direction perpendicular to the end surface of the grab plate 22 is recorded as the first direction.

[0031] In a specific embodiment, a slider is fixedly provided on the first body 261, a slide groove is opened in the detection part 262 along the first direction, the slider is accommodated in the slide groove, and the slider can slide relative to the slide groove, and the detection head 2631 is a roller, and a rubber layer is provided on the outer surface of the roller.

[0032] While the suction cup 25 absorbs the automobile glass, the roller of the detection head 2631 abuts against the automobile glass, and the automobile glass pushes the detection part 262 to slide. The relative displacement between the detection part 262 and the first body 261 is used to determine whether the automobile glass is in place, thereby determining whether the grasping component 2 accurately grasps the automobile glass.

[0033] The detection head 2631 is a roller, and a rubber layer is provided on the outer surface of the roller to reduce the friction between the detection head 2631 and the automobile glass, thereby protecting the automobile glass from damage.

[0034] More preferably, in the first direction, a buffer pad 264 is provided at one end of the first body 261 close to the gripping plate 22, and the suction cup 25 protrudes from the buffer pad 264. In general, the suction cup 25 is made of elastically deformable materials such as rubber, and the suction cup 25 needs to support the automobile glass while adsorbing it. After long-term use, the suction cup 25 is prone to load failure. The buffer pad 264 is provided, and the suction cup 25 protrudes from the buffer pad 264. After the suction cup 25 adsorbs the automobile glass and deforms, the automobile glass abuts against the buffer pad 264, and the automobile glass is supported by the buffer pad 264, thereby extending the service life of the suction cup 25.

[0035] Preferably, if Figure 4 As shown, the grab assembly 2 also includes a rotating support 27 and a support leg 28. The first driving member 23 is a rotating cylinder. The rotating support 27 is mounted on the base 21. One end of the support leg 28 is connected to the end face of the grab plate 22 away from the suction cup 25. The power output end of the rotating cylinder passes through the rotating support 27 and is fixedly connected to the other end of the support leg 28, which is used to drive the support leg 28 to rotate and drive the grab plate 22 to swing. The power output end of the rotating cylinder passes through the bearing of the rotating support 27 and is fixedly connected to the other end of the support leg 28. The provision of the rotating support 27 can transfer the load of the grab plate 22 on the rotating cylinder to the rotating support 27, reduce the load of the rotating cylinder, and extend the service life of the rotating cylinder.

[0036] More preferably, the grabbing assembly 2 also includes a buffer assembly 29, the buffer assembly 29 includes a first buffer seat 291, a second buffer seat 292 and two buffers 293, the first buffer seat 291 and the second buffer seat 292 are arranged on the base 21 with the power output end of the rotating cylinder spaced apart, the two buffers 293 are respectively arranged on the first buffer seat 291 and the second buffer seat 292, the buffer heads 2931 of the two buffers 293 are respectively used to abut against the two opposite sides of the support leg 28, the buffer 293 includes a second main body 2932 and two locking nuts 2933, the second main body 2932 is provided with an external thread, the two second main bodies 2932 are respectively penetrated on the first buffer seat 291 and the second buffer seat 292, the two locking nuts 2933 are meshed with the second main body 2932 and respectively abut against the two opposite sides of the first buffer seat 291, the two locking nuts 2933 are meshed with the second main body 2932 and respectively abut against the two opposite sides of the second buffer seat 292. The second main body 2932 is respectively inserted into the first buffer seat 291 and the second buffer seat 292, and the locking nut 2933 is engaged with the external thread of the second main body 2932. The two locking nuts 2933 can adjust the position of the second main body 2932 on the first buffer seat 291 and the second buffer seat 292, so that the buffer head 2931 of the buffer 293 is relatively closer to or farther away from the support leg 28, thereby adjusting the buffering effect of the buffer 293.

[0037] Preferably, if Figure 5 As shown, the lifting assembly 1 includes a second driving member 11, a slide rail 12, a third driving member (the third driving member is not shown in the drawings), a first slide 13, a fourth driving member 14, a second slide 15 and a support arm 16. The slide rail 12 extends in the up-down direction. The upper end of the slide rail 12 is connected to the power output end of the second driving member 11. The second driving member 11 is used to drive the slide rail 12 to slide in the up-down direction. The first slide 13 and the second slide 15 are both slidably arranged on the slide rail 12. The first slide 13 Located above the second slide 15, the third driving member is arranged on the slide rail 12, and the power output end of the third driving member is connected to the first slide 13, which is used to drive the first slide 13 to slide on the slide rail 12. The fourth driving member 14 is fixedly arranged on the first slide 13, and the power output end of the fourth driving member 14 is connected to the second slide 15, which is used to drive the second slide 15 to slide on the slide rail 12. One end of the support arm 16 is arranged on the second slide 15, and the other end of the support arm 16 is connected to the base 21. The second driving member 11 drives the slide rail 12 to slide. After the slide rail 12 slides to a predetermined position, the third driving member drives the first slide 13 to slide on the slide rail 12. The first slide 13 is connected to the second slide 15 through the fourth driving member 14. The sliding of the first slide 13 drives the sliding of the second slide 15. After the first slide 13 slides to a predetermined position, the fourth driving member 14 drives the second slide 15 to slide relative to the first slide 13. The three-stage linear motion in the up and down directions greatly increases the flexibility and accuracy of the movement of the grabbing component 2, and enables more precise and accurate positioning.

[0038] Specifically, the second driving member 11 , the third driving member and the fourth driving member 14 are all cylinders.

[0039] More preferably, the first slide 13 is detachably provided with a slide rail lock 17, which is slidably arranged on the slide rail 12. The slide rail lock 17 is arranged to prevent the first slide 13 from falling rapidly when the power is cut off and the gas is cut off, and to prevent the second slide 15 from hitting the slide rail 12, causing damage to the equipment.

[0040] In summary, the embodiment of the utility model provides a car glass grasping device, on which a plurality of suction cups 25 are arranged at intervals on a grasping plate 22, and the plurality of suction cups 25 are connected to a vacuum generator 24. The plurality of suction cups 25 are connected to a vacuum generator 24. Whether the grasping component 2 grasps the car glass stably can be judged by whether the air pressure value of the vacuum generator 24 is stable. If the air pressure value of the vacuum generator 24 is always in an unstable state, it can be judged that there is a gap between the suction cup 25 and the car glass or the suction cup 25 has a leakage phenomenon. At this time, the suction cup 25 cannot grasp the car glass stably, and the car glass is at risk of falling. Under the premise that the air pressure of the vacuum generator 24 remains stable, the detection switch 26 detects whether the car glass is in place. Since general car glasses have a certain curvature, as long as the position of the detection switch 26 is set, if the grasping position of the car glass is consistent each time it is grasped, the detection switch 26 can detect that the car glass is in place. If the detection switch 26 detects that the car glass is not in place, it means that the grasping position is incorrect. Therefore, setting the detection switch 26 can ensure the consistency of grasping by the grasping component 2.

[0041] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention. These improvements and substitutions should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
