Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bottled water production equipment, in particular to a mechanical clamping claw. Background Art

[0002] In the process of producing bottled water, the inside of the water barrel needs to be inspected before filling to ensure that the water barrel is clean and sanitary; therefore, before the water barrel is moved to the inspection area via a conveyor belt, it needs to be moved into the inspection area using a gripper; for example, the inspection area illuminates the bottom of the water barrel with light.

[0003] Since the empty barrel is light in weight, if the clamp in the prior art, such as the clamp with announcement number: CN213751260U, is used to carry the empty barrel, the structure of the clamp is relatively complicated, which leads to an increase in the cost of carrying the empty barrel.

[0019] The embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present utility model, and should not be construed as limiting the present utility model. In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "upper surface", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limiting the present utility model.

[0020] Please refer to Figures 1-5 Figures 1-5 An embodiment provided by the present utility model: a mechanical gripper, including a base 1 installed on a frame; a first gripper 3 is provided on one side of the base 1, and a second gripper 4 is provided on the other side of the base 1; a linkage plate 5 is provided between the first gripper 3 and the second gripper 4, and the linkage plate 5 is urged to move by a driving member 7 provided on the base 1, so that the first gripper 3 and the second gripper 4 move towards each other or away from each other.

[0021] To sum up, when the two grippers move downward following the linkage plate 5, the first gripper 3 and the second gripper 4 close to clamp the empty bucket. When the two grippers move upward following the linkage plate 5, the first gripper 3 and the second gripper 4 open to release the empty bucket; and the gripper uses the linkage plate 5 to simply reciprocate up and down following the driving member 7, which can simply and conveniently prompt the two grippers to complete the clamping action and the releasing action. Therefore, while completing the handling of the empty bucket, the structure of the gripper is simplified, thereby reducing the cost of handling the empty bucket. Among them, the driving member 7 is preferably a cylinder.

[0022] Further, since a detection member 2 is also provided on the base 1, and the other end of the detection member 2 is connected to the linkage plate 5, therefore, when the two grippers clamp the empty bucket, the detection member 2 can detect the inside of the empty bucket.

[0023] Specifically, a detector 21 is further provided on the surface of the detection member 2 facing the linkage plate 5. When the gripper clamps the empty bucket, the detector 21 moves downward following the linkage plate 5, which is convenient to move the detector 21 into the bucket to detect the inside of the empty bucket. Among them, the detector 21 is preferably a camera to take a photo of the inside of the empty bucket; at the same time, the detector 21 can also be an odor detection probe.

[0024] Based on this, the device can send the detector 21 into the empty bucket while the two grippers clamp the empty bucket, so as to facilitate the detector 21 to obtain information inside the empty bucket; for example, taking a photo with a camera to judge whether there are impurities inside the empty bucket, and using an odor probe to obtain the odor information inside the empty bucket to judge whether there is an abnormal smell inside the empty bucket.

[0025] Further, the detection member 2 includes a sleeve 20 and a tube cover 22 installed on the sleeve 20. The tube cover 22 is used to connect with the sleeve 20 to fix the detector 21 inside the sleeve 20. Based on this, the installation and disassembly of the detector 21 are simple and convenient; specifically, the tube cover 22 and the sleeve 20 are in threaded connection.

[0026] Furthermore, since a fastener 8 is also provided on the linkage plate 5 and abuts against the detection member 2 through the fastener 8 to fix the detection member 2 on the linkage plate 5, the depth of the detection member 2 extending into the empty barrel can be adjusted by the tightness of the fastener 8. Specifically, the fastener 8 and the linkage plate 5 are in threaded cooperation. Therefore, the detection member 2 can be fixed on the linkage plate 5 by tightening the fastener 8. Conversely, loosen the fastener 8 and then slide the detection member 2 upward or downward, so that the depth of the detection member 2 extending into the empty barrel can be adjusted again.

[0027] Based on the above solution, since both the first jaw 3 and the second jaw 4 are rotatably connected to the first pin rod 9 on the base 1 through the provided pin holes 32, and the first jaw 3 and the second jaw 4 are connected to the second pin rod 10 provided on the linkage plate 5 through the provided sliding grooves 31, the above structure can ensure that the two jaws can move towards or away from each other smoothly. Moreover, the setting of the sliding grooves 31 can also reduce the jitter phenomenon that occurs during the movement of the two jaws, thereby ensuring the smooth and stable movement of the two jaws towards or away from each other.

[0028] Further, since the ends of the first jaw 3 and the second jaw 4 away from the pin holes 32 are connected to the provided anti-slip pads 6, the anti-slip pads 6 can be used to contact the mouth of the empty barrel, protecting the mouth of the barrel and avoiding the phenomenon of the empty barrel falling during the clamping process, thereby ensuring the stability of the empty barrel during the handling process. Specifically, the material of the anti-slip pad 6 is preferably silicone material.

[0029] The above has described the embodiments of the present invention in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations made to these embodiments still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
