Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of pipe transfer, and in particular to a clamping and placing device. Background Art

[0002] Some pipes need to be repositioned or reversed during production or transportation. During the repositioning or reversing process, the pipes need to be clamped to prevent the position of the pipes from getting out of control. In the related art, a clamping device is provided to clamp the pipes, but other devices are required to remove the pipes from the clamping device, or the clamping device waits for the pipes to roll away after releasing the pipes, resulting in low efficiency in releasing the pipes by the clamping device. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present application provides a clamping device to facilitate the quick release of pipes.

[0004] One embodiment of the present application provides a clamping device for clamping and placing pipe fittings. The clamping device includes a bearing mechanism and a clamping mechanism. The bearing mechanism includes a bearing seat. A bearing area is provided on one side of the bearing seat. The clamping mechanism includes a first clamping member, a second clamping member, a first pushing member, a second pushing member, a first rotating member and a second rotating member. The first clamping member and the first pushing member are both connected to the first rotating member. The first rotating member is configured to drive the first clamping member and the first pushing member to rotate. The second clamping member and the second pushing member are both connected to the second rotating member. The second rotating member is configured to drive the second clamping member and the second pushing member to rotate. The first clamping member and the second clamping member are configured to be able to clamp the pipe fitting in the bearing area. The first pushing member is configured to be able to rotate through the bearing area. The second pushing member is configured to be able to rotate through the bearing area.

[0005] In the above embodiment, after the bearing seat carries the pipe in the bearing area, the first rotating member drives the first clamping member to rotate, and the second rotating member drives the second clamping member to rotate, and the first clamping member and the second clamping member both rotate toward the bearing area to clamp the pipe. When the pipe needs to be released, the first rotating member drives the first clamping member to rotate, and the second rotating member drives the second clamping member to rotate, so that the first clamping member and the second clamping member both rotate away from the bearing area to loosen the pipe. When the first clamping member rotates away from the bearing area, the first pushing member also rotates accordingly, and when the second clamping member rotates away from the bearing area, the second pushing member also rotates accordingly, and the first pushing member and / or the second pushing member pass through the bearing area, thereby pushing the pipe located in the bearing area. Then, as the first clamping member and the second clamping member move away from the pipe and release the pipe, the first pushing member and the second pushing member can push the pipe out of the bearing area, thereby shortening the time required to release the pipe, which is conducive to improving the efficiency of releasing the pipe.

[0006] In some embodiments of the present application, the bearing seat is provided with a recessed portion. The recessed portion is recessed to form at least a portion of the bearing area. The first clamping member, the second clamping member and the recessed portion are configured to clamp the pipe together.

[0007] In the above embodiment, the recessed portion can support the pipe. By providing a recessed structure of the recessed portion, the stability of the pipe relative to the supporting seat is improved, thereby facilitating the first clamping member and the second clamping member to accurately locate the pipe and stably clamp the pipe.

[0008] In some embodiments of the present application, the supporting mechanism further includes a material discharge detection member. The material discharge detection member is fixed relative to the recessed portion. The material discharge detection member is configured to detect the position of the pipe relative to the recessed portion. The clamping device further includes a controller. The material discharge detection member is connected to the controller. The controller is connected to the first rotating member and the second rotating member.

[0009] In the above embodiment, the position of the pipe carried in the recessed portion is detected by the material discharge detection member. After the pipe is placed in place relative to the recessed portion, the first rotating member and the second rotating member can be controlled in time through the control management of the controller to clamp the pipe in time and improve the operation efficiency.

[0010] In some embodiments of the present application, the first clamping member is provided with a first arc surface, which is configured to clamp a pipe, and the second clamping member is provided with a second arc surface, which is configured to clamp a pipe.

[0011] In the above embodiment, when the first clamping member and the second clamping member clamp the pipe, the first arc surface and the second arc surface can buckle against the pipe, which is beneficial to reduce the displacement of the pipe relative to the first clamping member and the second clamping member when the first clamping member and the second clamping member abut against the pipe, thereby improving the accuracy of the position of the pipe when the first clamping member and the second clamping member clamp the pipe, and further facilitating the first pushing member and the second pushing member to accurately push the pipe when releasing the pipe.

[0012] In some embodiments of the present application, the first clamping member includes a first connecting portion and a first buffer portion. The first connecting portion is connected to the first rotating member. The first buffer portion is connected to the first connecting member. The first buffer portion is configured to clamp a pipe fitting. The second clamping member includes a second connecting portion and a second buffer portion. The second connecting portion is connected to the second rotating member. The second buffer portion is connected to the second connecting member. The second buffer portion is configured to clamp a pipe fitting. The first pushing member includes a third connecting portion and a third buffer portion. The third connecting portion is connected to the first rotating member. The third buffer portion is connected to the third connecting member. The third buffer portion is configured to clamp a pipe fitting. The second pushing member includes a fourth connecting portion and a fourth buffer portion. The fourth connecting portion is connected to the second rotating member. The fourth buffer portion is connected to the fourth connecting member. The fourth buffer portion is configured to clamp a pipe fitting.

[0013] In the above embodiment, by providing the first buffer portion, the second buffer portion, the third buffer portion and the fourth buffer portion, the impact on the pipe can be reduced when the first clamping member and the second clamping member clamp the pipe and the first pushing member and the second pushing member push the pipe. This is beneficial to protecting the pipe on the one hand and improving the accuracy of the position of the pipe on the other.

[0014] In some embodiments of the present application, the first rotating member includes a first rotating rod and a first rotating driving member. The first rotating rod is rotatably arranged relative to the bearing seat. The first clamping member and the first pushing member are arranged on the first rotating rod. The first rotating driving member is fixedly arranged relative to the bearing seat. The first rotating driving member is configured to drive the first rotating rod to rotate.

The second rotating rod is arranged parallel to the first rotating rod. The second clamping member and the second pushing member are arranged on the second rotating rod. The second rotating driving member is fixedly arranged relative to the bearing seat. The second rotating driving member is configured to drive the second rotating rod to rotate.

[0015] In the above embodiment, the first rotating driving member drives the rotation of the first rotating rod and the second rotating driving member drives the rotation of the second rotating rod relatively independently, so the rotation of the first pushing member and the rotation of the second pushing member are relatively independent, thereby being able to control the pipe to leave the load-bearing area from the side where the first pushing member is located or the side where the second pushing member is located.

[0016] In some embodiments of the present application, the clamping mechanism further includes a first displacement detection member and a second displacement detection member. The first displacement detection member and the second displacement detection member are both fixed relative to the bearing seat. The first displacement detection member is configured to detect the rotation position of the first rotating rod. The second displacement detection member is configured to detect the rotation position of the second rotating rod. The clamping device further includes a controller. The controller is connected to the first rotation driving member, the second rotation driving member, the first displacement detection member and the second displacement detection member.

[0017] In the above embodiment, the first displacement detection member detects the rotation position of the first rotating rod and the second displacement detection member detects the rotation position of the second rotating rod, thereby improving the accuracy of the rotation positions of the first rotating rod and the second rotating rod, thereby facilitating the first clamping member and the second clamping member to rotate to the accurate position, so as to move the pipe between the first clamping member and the second clamping member or to clamp the pipe accurately and stably, and facilitating the first pushing member and the second pushing member to rotate to the accurate position, so as to push the pipe accurately and stably away from the load-bearing area.

[0018] In some embodiments of the present application, the clamping device further includes a lifting mechanism. The lifting mechanism includes a lifting drive and a lifting member. The lifting drive is fixedly arranged relative to the bearing seat. The lifting member is arranged on the lifting drive. The lifting drive is configured to drive the lifting member to move. The moving direction of the lifting member intersects with the rotation axis of the first pusher and the rotation axis of the second pusher, and the lifting member is configured to be able to enter the bearing area.

[0019] In the above embodiment, the lifting drive member drives the lifting member to move so that the lifting member pushes the pipe away from the bearing seat to reduce the friction between the pipe and the bearing seat, thereby facilitating the first pushing member and the second pushing member to push the pipe away from the bearing area.

[0020] In some embodiments of the present application, the clamping device further comprises a base and a moving mechanism. The moving mechanism is arranged on the base. The bearing mechanism and the clamping mechanism are both arranged on the moving mechanism. The moving mechanism is configured to drive the bearing mechanism and the clamping mechanism to move relative to the base.

[0021] In the above embodiment, the moving mechanism drives the bearing mechanism and the clamping mechanism to move together, so as to maintain stable clamping of the pipe when driving the pipe to move in a position change or direction change manner, thereby improving the accuracy of pipe transfer.

[0022] In some embodiments of the present application, the mobile mechanism includes a mobile driving member and a third displacement detection member. The mobile driving member is disposed on the base. The bearing mechanism and the clamping mechanism are disposed on the mobile driving member.

[0072] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0073] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.

[0074] As used herein, the term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0075] Furthermore, the terms “first,” “second,” “third,” etc. are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0076] The embodiment of the present application provides a clamping device for clamping and placing a pipe. The clamping device includes a bearing mechanism and a clamping mechanism. The bearing mechanism includes a bearing seat. A bearing area is provided on one side of the bearing seat. The clamping mechanism includes a first clamping member, a second clamping member, a first pushing member, a second pushing member, a first rotating member and a second rotating member. The first clamping member and the first pushing member are both connected to the first rotating member. The first rotating member is configured to drive the first clamping member and the first pushing member to rotate. The second clamping member and the second pushing member are both connected to the second rotating member. The second rotating member is configured to drive the second clamping member and the second pushing member to rotate. The first clamping member and the second clamping member are configured to be able to clamp the pipe in the bearing area. The first pushing member is configured to be able to rotate through the bearing area. The second pushing member is configured to be able to rotate through the bearing area.

[0077] After the bearing seat carries the pipe fitting in the bearing area, the first rotating member drives the first clamping member to rotate, and the second rotating member drives the second clamping member to rotate, and the first clamping member and the second clamping member both rotate toward the bearing area to clamp the pipe fitting. When the pipe fitting needs to be released, the first rotating member drives the first clamping member to rotate, and the second rotating member drives the second clamping member to rotate, so that the first clamping member and the second clamping member both rotate away from the bearing area to loosen the pipe fitting. When the first clamping member rotates away from the bearing area, the first pushing member also rotates accordingly, and when the second clamping member rotates away from the bearing area, the second pushing member also rotates accordingly, and the first pushing member and / or the second pushing member pass through the bearing area, thereby pushing the pipe fitting located in the bearing area. Then, as the first clamping member and the second clamping member move away from the pipe fitting to release the pipe fitting, the first pushing member and the second pushing member can push the pipe fitting out of the bearing area, thereby shortening the time required to release the pipe fitting, which is conducive to improving the efficiency of releasing the pipe fitting.

[0078] Some embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0079] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2One embodiment of the present application provides a clamping device 100 for clamping a pipe 200. The clamping device 100 includes a bearing mechanism 10 and a clamping mechanism 20. The bearing mechanism 10 includes a bearing seat 11. A bearing area 111 is provided on one side of the bearing seat 11. The clamping mechanism 20 includes a first clamping member 21, a second clamping member 22, a first pusher 23, a second pusher 24, a first rotating member 25, and a second rotating member 26. The first clamping member 21 and the first pusher 23 are both connected to the first rotating member 25. The first rotating member 25 is configured to drive the first clamping member 21 and the first pusher 23 to rotate. The second clamping member 22 and the second pusher 24 are both connected to the second rotating member 26. The second rotating member 26 is configured to drive the second clamping member 22 and the second pusher 24 to rotate. The first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 are configured to clamp the pipe 200 in the bearing area 111. The first pusher 23 is configured to be able to rotate through the bearing area 111. The second pushing member 24 is configured to be able to rotate through the bearing area 111 .

[0080] After the bearing seat 11 carries the pipe 200 on the bearing area 111, the first rotating member 25 drives the first clamping member 21 to rotate, and the second rotating member 26 drives the second clamping member 22 to rotate, and the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 both rotate toward the bearing area 111 to clamp the pipe 200. When the pipe 200 needs to be released, the first rotating member 25 drives the first clamping member 21 to rotate, and the second rotating member 26 drives the second clamping member 22 to rotate, so that the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 both rotate away from the bearing area 111 to release the pipe 200. When the first clamping member 21 rotates away from the bearing area 111, the first pushing member 23 also rotates accordingly, and when the second clamping member 22 rotates away from the bearing area 111, the second pushing member 24 also rotates accordingly, and the first pushing member 23 and / or the second pushing member 24 pass through the bearing area 111, thereby pushing the pipe 200 located in the bearing area 111. As the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 move away from the tube 200 and release the tube 200, the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 can push the tube 200 out of the bearing area 111, thereby shortening the time required to release the tube 200 and improving the efficiency of releasing the tube 200.

[0081] In this application, Figures 1 to 4 It is a schematic diagram of the structure when the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 are in the position of clamping the pipe 200, and the schematic diagram when the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 push the pipe 200 is omitted.

[0082] Among them, when the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 are rotated to clamp the pipe 200, the first clamping member 21 applies a force to the pipe 200 at its current position, and has a component force in the direction toward the supporting seat 11 and the direction toward the second clamping member 22. The second clamping member 22 applies a force to the pipe 200 at its current position, and has a component force in the direction toward the supporting seat 11 and the direction toward the first clamping member 21.

[0083] In some embodiments, the material of the pipe 200 includes but is not limited to metal, polymer, glass, ceramic, etc. For example, the pipe 200 may be a PVC pipe (Polyvinylchlorid, the main component of which is polyvinyl chloride).

[0084] In some embodiments, the clamping device 100 further includes a controller (not shown). The controller is connected to the first rotating member 25 and the second rotating member 26, specifically electrically connected or signal connected. The clamping device 100 controls the movements of the first rotating member 25 and the second rotating member 26 through the controller.

[0085] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, two bearing seats 11 are provided. The two bearing seats 11 are spaced apart along the rotation axis of the first clamping member 21, the second clamping member 22, the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24, and the first clamping member 21, the second clamping member 22, the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 are located between the two bearing seats 11. In other embodiments, the bearing seat 11 may be provided with one, and the first clamping member 21, the second clamping member 22, the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 may be distributed on one side or both sides of the bearing seat 11 along the rotation axis; or the bearing seat 11 may be provided with more than two, and the bearing seat 11, the first clamping member 21, the second clamping member 22, the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 are distributed in different arrangements as needed.

[0086] See also Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments, the bearing seat 11 is provided with a recessed portion 112. The recessed portion 112 is recessed to form at least a portion of the bearing area 111. The first clamping member 21, the second clamping member 22 and the recessed portion 112 are configured to clamp the pipe 200 together. It is understood that in some embodiments, the bearing area 111 and the recessed portion 112 are located on the same side of the bearing seat 11.

[0087] The recessed portion 112 can support the pipe 200. The recessed structure of the recessed portion 112 is provided to improve the stability of the pipe 200 relative to the supporting seat 11, thereby facilitating the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 to locate the position of the pipe 200 and stably clamp the pipe 200.

[0088] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the bearing seat 11 is further provided with an inclined portion 113. Two inclined portions 113 are provided and are located on opposite sides of the recessed portion 112. The distribution direction of the two inclined portions 113 is the same as the distribution direction of the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22. Each inclined portion 113 is inclined toward the recessed direction of the recessed portion 112 from the side close to the recessed portion 112 to the side away from the recessed portion 112. Usually, when the clamping device 100 is in use, the recessed direction of the recessed portion 112 is the same as the gravity direction. By providing two inclined portions 113, when the first pusher 23 or the second pusher 24 pushes the pipe 200 to move to one side, the pipe 200 can automatically roll along the inclined portion 113 on the corresponding side, so as to reduce the force required by the first pusher 23 or the second pusher 24 to push the pipe 200, which is conducive to reducing the structural strength and power consumption of the first pusher 23 and the second pusher 24, so as to reduce the production and manufacturing costs of the pipe 200 and the clamping device 100.

[0089] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the bearing seat 11 is further provided with a plane portion 114. Two plane portions 114 are provided. A plane portion 114 is provided between each inclined portion 113 and the recessed portion 112. The side surface of each plane portion 114 facing the bearing area 111 is parallel to the distribution direction of the two plane portions 114. Usually, when the clamping device 100 is in use, the distribution direction of the two plane portions 114 is perpendicular to the direction of gravity, and the side surface of the plane portion 114 facing the bearing area 111 is a horizontal plane. Then, when the first pushing member 23 or the second pushing member 24 pushes the pipe 200 to leave the recessed portion 112, it first passes through the transition of the plane portion 114 and then enters the inclined portion 113, which is conducive to making the pipe 200 roll more smoothly when leaving the bearing seat 11.

[0090] See also Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments, the support mechanism 10 further includes a material discharge detection member 12. The material discharge detection member 12 is fixed relative to the recessed portion 112. The material discharge detection member 12 is configured to detect the position of the pipe 200 relative to the recessed portion 112. The material discharge detection member 12 is connected to the controller, specifically, electrically connected or signal connected.

[0091] The position of the pipe 200 carried in the recessed portion 112 is detected by the material discharge detection member 12. After the pipe 200 is placed in place relative to the recessed portion 112, the first rotating member 25 and the second rotating member 26 can be controlled in time through the control management of the controller to clamp the pipe 200 in time and improve the operation efficiency.

[0092] It can be understood that in some embodiments, the material discharging detection member 12 is a pressure detection device, and the position of the pipe 200 relative to the recessed portion 112 is determined by detecting the pressure of the pipe 200 on the material discharging detection member 12; or the material discharging detection member 12 is a pressing detection device, and after the pipe 200 presses the material discharging detection member 12 into place, it is determined that the pipe 200 has moved into place relative to the recessed portion 112; or the material discharging detection member 12 is a displacement detection device, and the position of the pipe 200 relative to the recessed portion 112 is determined by detecting the distance between the pipe 200 and the displacement detection device. In other embodiments, the material discharging detection member 12 can also be other detection devices that can be used to detect the position of the pipe 200 relative to the recessed portion 112.

[0093] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the bearing seat 11 further includes a bearing frame 13. A plurality of bearing seats 11 are disposed on the bearing frame 13 so that the plurality of bearing seats 11 are fixed to each other. The material discharge detection member 12 is disposed on the bearing seat 11. In other embodiments, the material discharge detection member 12 may also be disposed on the bearing frame 13.

[0094] See also Figure 1 In some embodiments, the first rotating member 25 and the second rotating member 26 are disposed on the supporting seat 11 so as to enable the first clamping member 21 , the second clamping member 22 , the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 to rotate relative to the supporting seat 11 .

[0095] See also Figure 1 In some embodiments, two of each of the first clamping member 21, the second clamping member 22, the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 are provided. One first clamping member 21 and one second clamping member 22 are provided as a group, and the two groups are provided at intervals. One first pushing member 23 and one second pushing member 24 are provided as a group, and the two groups are provided at intervals. In other embodiments, more groups of the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 may be provided, and more groups of the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 may be provided.

[0096] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the angle between the first clamping member 21 and the first pushing member 23 is not less than 90°, which is conducive to preventing the first clamping member 21 from stopping the pipe 200 when the first pushing member 23 pushes the pipe 200; the angle between the second clamping member 22 and the second pushing member 24 is not less than 90°, which is conducive to preventing the second clamping member 22 from stopping the pipe 200 when the second pushing member 24 pushes the pipe 200. The angle between the two is the angle between the farthest ends of the first clamping member 21, the second clamping member 22, the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 in their respective rotational radial directions relative to the rotational axial direction. As an exemplary example, the angle between the two can be 90°, 120°, 150°, 180°, 210°, etc.

[0097] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the first clamping member 21 has a first arc surface 2121. The first arc surface 2121 is configured to clamp the pipe 200. The second clamping member 22 has a second arc surface 2221. The second arc surface 2221 is configured to clamp the pipe 200.

[0098] When the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 clamp the pipe 200, the first arc surface 2121 and the second arc surface 2221 can buckle against the pipe 200, which is beneficial to reduce the displacement of the pipe 200 relative to the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 when the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 abut against the pipe 200, thereby improving the accuracy of the position of the pipe 200 when the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 clamp the pipe 200, and further facilitating the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 to accurately push the pipe 200 when releasing the pipe 200.

[0099] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the first pusher 23 has a first plane 2321 . The first plane 2321 is configured to push the tube 200 . The second pusher 24 has a second plane 2421 . The second plane 2421 is configured to push the tube 200 .

[0100] When the first pushing member 23 or the first clamping member 21 pushes the pipe 200, the first plane 2321 or the second plane 2421 facilitates the pipe 200 to move along its respective surfaces, so that when the pipe 200 is pushed away from the supporting seat 11 or the supporting area 111, the first pushing member 23 or the second pushing member 24 can quickly adjust the contact position with the pipe 200, thereby smoothly pushing the pipe 200.

[0101] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the first clamping member 21 includes a first connecting portion 211 and a first buffer portion 212. The first connecting portion 211 is connected to the first rotating member 25. The first buffer portion 212 is connected to the first connecting member. The first buffer portion 212 is configured to clamp the pipe 200. The second clamping member 22 includes a second connecting portion 221 and a second buffer portion 222. The second connecting portion 221 is connected to the second rotating member 26. The second buffer portion 222 is connected to the second connecting member. The second buffer portion 222 is configured to clamp the pipe 200. The first pushing member 23 includes a third connecting portion 231 and a third buffer portion 232. The third connecting portion 231 is connected to the first rotating member 25. The third buffer portion 232 is connected to the third connecting member. The third buffer portion 232 is configured to clamp the pipe 200. The second pushing member 24 includes a fourth connecting portion 241 and a fourth buffer portion 242. The fourth connecting portion 241 is connected to the second rotating member 26. The fourth buffer portion 242 is connected to the fourth connecting member. The fourth buffer portion 242 is configured to clamp the pipe 200 .

[0102] By providing the first buffer portion 212, the second buffer portion 222, the third buffer portion 232 and the fourth buffer portion 242, the impact on the pipe 200 can be reduced when the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 clamp the pipe 200 and the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 push the pipe 200. This is beneficial to protecting the pipe 200 on the one hand and improving the position accuracy of the pipe 200 on the other hand.

[0103] It is understood that in some embodiments, the first arc surface 2121 is provided on the first buffer portion 212 , and the second arc surface 2221 is provided on the second buffer portion 222 . The first plane 2321 is provided on the third buffer portion 232 , and the second plane 2421 is provided on the fourth buffer portion 242 .

[0104] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the first buffer portion 212 and the first connecting portion 211, the second buffer portion 222 and the second connecting portion 221, the third buffer portion 232 and the third connecting portion 231, and the fourth buffer portion 242 and the fourth connecting portion 241 are all detachably connected to facilitate replacement of the first buffer portion 212, the second buffer portion 222, the third buffer portion 232, and the fourth buffer portion 242.

[0105] See also Figure 3In some embodiments, the first rotating member 25 includes a first rotating rod 251 and a first rotating driving member 252. The first rotating rod 251 is rotatably arranged relative to the bearing seat 11. The first clamping member 21 and the first pushing member 23 are arranged on the first rotating rod 251. The first rotating driving member 252 is fixedly arranged relative to the bearing seat 11. The first rotating driving member 252 is configured to drive the first rotating rod 251 to rotate. The second rotating member 26 includes a second rotating rod 261 and a second rotating driving member 262. The second rotating rod 261 is rotatably arranged relative to the bearing seat 11. The second rotating rod 261 is arranged parallel to the first rotating rod 251. The second clamping member 22 and the second pushing member 24 are arranged on the second rotating rod 261. The second rotating driving member 262 is fixedly arranged relative to the bearing seat 11. The second rotating driving member 262 is configured to drive the second rotating rod 261 to rotate. It can be understood that in some embodiments, the first rotating rod 251 is parallel to the second rotating rod 261 and is arranged radially spaced.

[0106] The first rotating driving member 252 drives the first rotating rod 251 to rotate and the second rotating driving member 262 drives the second rotating rod 261 to rotate relatively independently, so the rotation of the first pushing member 23 and the rotation of the second pushing member 24 are relatively independent, so that the pipe 200 can be controlled to leave the bearing area 111 from the side where the first pushing member 23 is located or the side where the second pushing member 24 is located.

[0107] As an exemplary example, when it is necessary to clamp the pipe 200, the first rotating driving member 252 and the second rotating driving member 262 act simultaneously, so that the first rotating rod 251 and the second rotating rod 261 rotate simultaneously, so that the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 clamp the pipe 200; when it is necessary for the pipe 200 to leave the side where the first pushing member 23 is located, the first rotating driving member 252 acts and the second rotating driving member 262 does not act, so that the first rotating rod 251 rotates and the second rotating rod 261 is relatively fixed, so that the first clamping member 21 avoids the pipe 200 from leaving the side where the first pushing member 23 is located. The first pushing member 23 pushes the pipe 200, and the second clamping member 22 is relatively fixed to prevent the pipe 200 from leaving from the other side; when the pipe 200 needs to leave from the side where the second pushing member 24 is located, the second rotating driving member 262 is actuated while the first rotating driving member 252 is not actuated, so that the second rotating rod 261 is rotated while the first rotating rod 251 is relatively fixed, so that the second clamping member 22 avoids opening a path for the pipe 200 to leave, the second pushing member 24 pushes the pipe 200, and the first clamping member 21 is relatively fixed to prevent the pipe 200 from leaving from the other side.

[0108] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the first rotating driving member 252 is a motor, and is connected to the first rotating rod 251 through a belt or a gear; the second rotating driving member 262 is a motor, and is connected to the second rotating rod 261 through a belt or a gear. Compared with the first rotating rod 251 being directly connected to the output end of the first rotating driving member 252 and the second rotating rod 261 being directly connected to the output end of the second rotating driving member 262, the transmission of the belt or the gear facilitates the adjustment of the position of the first rotating driving member 252 relative to the first rotating rod 251 and the position of the second rotating driving member 262 relative to the second rotating rod 261, thereby saving space.

[0109] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism 20 further includes a first displacement detection member 27 and a second displacement detection member 28. The first displacement detection member 27 and the second displacement detection member 28 are both fixed relative to the bearing seat 11. The first displacement detection member 27 is configured to detect the rotation position of the first rotating rod 251. The second displacement detection member 28 is configured to detect the rotation position of the second rotating rod 261. The controller is connected to the first displacement detection member 27 and the second displacement detection member 28, specifically, electrically connected or signal connected.

[0110] The first displacement detection member 27 detects the rotation position of the first rotating rod 251 and the second displacement detection member 28 detects the rotation position of the second rotating rod 261, so as to improve the accuracy of the rotation position of the first rotating rod 251 and the second rotating rod 261, thereby facilitating the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 to rotate to the accurate position, so as to move the pipe 200 between the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 or to clamp the pipe 200 accurately and stably, and facilitating the first pushing member 23 and the second pushing member 24 to rotate to the accurate position, so as to push the pipe 200 accurately and stably away from the bearing area 111.

[0111] In some embodiments, the first displacement detection member 27 and the second displacement detection member 28 respectively have a plurality of detection positions, including but not limited to a position for receiving the pipe 200, a position for clamping the pipe 200, and a position for pushing the pipe 200 away, etc. It is understood that in some embodiments, the first displacement detection member 27 and the second displacement detection member 28 may be photoelectric sensing devices, and a plurality of sensing points are arranged around the circumference of the first rotating rod 251 and the circumference of the second rotating rod 261.

The moving direction of the lifting member 32 intersects with the rotation axis of the first pushing member 23 and the rotation axis of the second pushing member 24, and the lifting member 32 is configured to be able to enter the bearing area 111. It can be understood that in some embodiments, the controller is connected to the lifting drive member 31, specifically an electrical connection or a signal connection.

[0113] The lifting driving member 31 drives the lifting member 32 to move, so that the lifting member 32 pushes the pipe 200 away from the bearing seat 11, so as to reduce the friction between the pipe 200 and the bearing seat 11, thereby facilitating the first pusher 23 and the second pusher 24 to push the pipe 200 away from the bearing area 111. The lifting member 32 can push the pipe 200 out of the recessed portion 112, so as to reduce the force driving the first pusher 23 or the second pusher 24 to rotate.

[0114] It can be understood that in some embodiments, the lifting drive component 31 includes but is not limited to a cylinder, a motor, a hydraulic cylinder, etc.

[0115] See also Figure 3 In some embodiments, the lifting driving members 31 and the lifting members 32 are provided in multiple groups corresponding to each other, and are spaced apart along the axial direction of the first rotating rod 251 and the second rotating rod 261 .

[0118] The moving mechanism 50 drives the carrying mechanism 10 and the clamping mechanism 20 to move together, and can maintain stable clamping of the pipe 200 when driving the pipe 200 to move in a position change or direction change manner, thereby improving the accuracy of transferring the pipe 200.

[0119] See also Figure 3In some embodiments, the moving mechanism 50 includes a moving driving member 51. The moving driving member 51 is disposed on the base 40. The bearing mechanism 10 and the clamping mechanism 20 are disposed on the moving driving member 51. The moving driving member 51 is configured to drive the bearing mechanism 10 and the clamping mechanism 20 to move relative to the base 40. It can be understood that in some embodiments, the bearing seat 11 is disposed on the moving driving member 51 through the bearing frame 13, and the first rotating member 25 and the second rotating member 26 are disposed on the bearing frame 13.

[0120] It can be understood that in some embodiments, the mobile driving member 51 includes but is not limited to a cylinder, a motor, a hydraulic cylinder, etc.

The third displacement detecting member 52 is configured to detect the moving position of the carrying mechanism 10 and the clamping mechanism 20. The controller is connected to the third displacement detecting member 52, specifically, electrically connected or signal connected.

[0122] The third displacement detection member 52 detects the moving positions of the supporting mechanism 10 and the clamping mechanism 20 , so that the supporting mechanism 10 and the clamping mechanism 20 move into position to clamp or release the pipe 200 , thereby improving the accuracy of receiving or releasing the pipe 200 .

[0123] See also Figure 3 In some embodiments, the third displacement detection member 52 has multiple detection positions, including but not limited to the position for receiving the pipe 200 and the position for the pipe 200 to turn around and leave. It can be understood that in some embodiments, the third displacement detection member 52 can be a photoelectric sensing device, and multiple sensing points are set around the rotation circumference of the mobile driving member 51.

[0124] See also Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the clamping device 100 works as follows:

[0125] When the pipe 200 does not need to be reversed, after the pipe 200 is placed on the bearing seat 11, the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 clamp the pipe 200, and as needed, the first rotating rod 251 or the second rotating rod 261 rotates to rotate the first pushing member 23 or the second pushing member 24, thereby pushing the pipe 200 away from the bearing seat 11;

[0126] When the pipe 200 needs to be changed direction, after the pipe 200 is placed on the supporting seat 11, the first clamping member 21 and the second clamping member 22 clamp the pipe 200, and the mobile driving member 51 drives the supporting frame 13 to rotate so that the pipe 200 changes direction, and then as needed, the first rotating rod 251 or the second rotating rod 261 rotates to rotate the first pushing member 23 or the second pushing member 24, thereby pushing the pipe 200 away from the supporting seat 11.
