Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0024] See Figures 1 to 4 Figures 1 to 4 , a box-holding manipulator that can rotate 180 degrees, having: a connecting rod 1, the first end of which can be connected to the manipulator; a fixed bracket 2, installed on the second end of the connecting rod 1; a rotating bracket 3, rotatably installed on the fixed bracket 2 through a rotating shaft; a driving mechanism 4, installed on the rotating bracket 3, and the driving mechanism 4 can drive the rotating bracket 3 to rotate relative to the fixed bracket 2; a sucking mechanism 5, installed at the lower end of the fixed bracket 2, and the sucking mechanism 5 can suck the box. The connecting rod 1 serves to connect the manipulator and moves by driving of the manipulator. The driving mechanism 4 is installed on the fixed bracket 2, and the rotating bracket 3 can rotate relative to the fixed bracket 2. By driving the rotating bracket 3 to rotate out by the driving mechanism 4, a 180-degree turn can be directly completed before the box is offline, thus meeting the convenience of subsequent offline general assembly.

[0025] The driving mechanism 4 includes a driving motor 41, a driving gear 42 and a rotating gear 43. The driving motor 41 is installed on the fixed bracket 2, and the driving gear 42 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft of the driving motor 41; the rotating gear 43 is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft of the rotating bracket 3, and the driving gear 42 meshes with the rotating gear 43. By driving the driving gear 42 to rotate by the driving motor 41, the driving gear 42 is a small gear and the rotating gear 43 is a large gear, so as to achieve the purpose of speed reduction. By driving the rotating gear 43 to rotate by the driving gear 42, the rotating bracket 3 is driven to rotate, so that a 180-degree turn can be directly completed before the box is offline, thus meeting the convenience of subsequent offline general assembly.

[0026] The sucking mechanism 5 includes a linear module 52 and a sucker holder 53; the linear module 52 is arranged at the bottom of the rotating bracket 3; the sucker holder 53 is fixedly connected to the slider of the linear module 52; a sucker capable of sucking the box is provided on the sucker holder 53. The linear module 52 drives the sucker holder 53 to move, so as to achieve the purpose of clamping or releasing the box by the sucker holder 53.

[0027] A set of linear modules 52 is provided on each side of the rotating bracket 3, and the sucker holder 53 is installed on the two linear modules 52 at the same time. The two linear modules 52 make the sucker holder 53 more stable and reliable during movement.
