Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cover plate clamps, in particular to a cover plate clamp of a manipulator. Background Art

[0002] Before and after coating, the cover plate needs to be placed on the glass. Currently, the cover plate is placed manually or mechanically. Due to the low degree of automation of the manual method, it is not suitable for production lines with strong continuity. However, the mechanical method currently uses camera-assisted positioning to enable the robot to correctly grasp the cover plate, but the camera-assisted positioning requires regular memory cleaning to ensure the normal operation of the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a cover plate clamp of a manipulator to realize the rapid positioning of the cover plate.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a cover plate clamp of a robot, comprising an assembly substrate and a grabbing bracket; the grabbing bracket is arranged on an end face of the assembly substrate in the thickness direction, and a support rod with an axis perpendicular to the assembly substrate is arranged at the lower end of the grabbing bracket, and the extension direction of the support rod is away from the assembly substrate, and a positioning clamp is arranged on the grabbing bracket, and the positioning clamp is used to position the cover plate on the support rod, and a plurality of suction cups are arranged on the grabbing bracket.

[0005] Furthermore, the positioning fixture includes a linear reciprocating device and a push rod, the linear reciprocating device has two movable ends with opposite moving directions, and the movable end of the linear reciprocating device is provided with a push rod.

[0006] Furthermore, a protective pad is sleeved on the shaft of the putter.

[0007] Furthermore, a slide rail is provided at the lower end of the grabbing bracket, the support rod is slidably provided on the slide rail, and the sliding direction of the support rod faces the upper end of the assembly substrate.

[0008] Furthermore, a vacuum generator is provided on an end surface of the grabbing bracket facing the assembly substrate, and the vacuum generator is connected to a suction cup pipeline.

[0009] Furthermore, a flange connection tube is provided on an end surface of the assembly substrate away from the grabbing bracket.

[0010] Furthermore, a protective pad is sleeved on the rod body of the support rod.

[0011] The beneficial effect of the utility model is that, different from the prior art, the manipulator is connected to the assembly substrate through a grabbing bracket with a support rod and a positioning fixture. In the process of grabbing the cover plate, the manipulator first absorbs the cover plate through the suction cup on the grabbing bracket, and then the manipulator moves to tilt the grabbing bracket and let the suction cup release the cover plate, so that the cover plate slides onto the support rod by itself under the action of gravity, and then the positioning fixture positions the cover plate on the support rod, and then the suction cup absorbs the cover plate again, and finally the manipulator completes the placement of the cover plate on the glass or places the cover plate on the rack. Not only does it save the use of a camera for auxiliary positioning, but it can also effectively complete the positioning of the cover plate. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
