End fixing seats are fixed at both ends of the cross bars. Suction cups are installed at both ends of the end fixing seats. The suction cups are connected to a vacuum pump through connecting pipes.

[0006] This device for grasping finished sponge sheets adopts the structure of a vacuum pump and suction cups to suck the sponge sheet wrapped with a plastic film. Cooperating with the installed manipulator, the sponge sheet can be quickly transferred from the plastic film wrapping machine to the transport vehicle.

[0007] Furthermore, the end fixing seat includes two parallel mounting rods fixed to the cross bar. At both lower ends of the outer mounting rod, mounting plates are fixed. The mounting plates are used to fix the connecting pipes.

[0008] The connecting pipes are fixed on the mounting plates, expanding the installation position of the connecting pipes outwards, facilitating the installation of the connecting pipes.

[0009] Furthermore, there are waist-shaped slots on the mounting plates. There are threaded sections on the outer surface of the connecting pipes. Two nuts are screwed onto the connecting pipes. The two nuts are arranged on both sides of the mounting plate respectively.

[0010] The waist-shaped slots in the middle of the mounting plates are used to adjust the installation position of the connecting pipes, facilitating fine-tuning the position of the suction cups to meet the usage requirements in different situations.

[0011] Furthermore, a blocking block is fixed under the inner mounting rod.

[0012] The blocking block is used to contact the sponge sheet to press down the sponge sheet.

[0013] Furthermore, the blocking block is fixed on the mounting block, an adapter block is installed above the mounting block, and the adapter block is fixed on the side wall of the mounting rod.

[0014] The blocking block is fixedly installed by means of a mounting block and a transfer block, providing a mounting mechanism for the blocking block.

[0015] Furthermore, a plurality of screw holes are formed on one side of the blocking block that contacts the mounting block, and bolts are passed through the waist-shaped holes on the mounting block and screwed into the screw holes to lock and fix the mounting block.

[0016] The screw holes on the blocking block are installed in conjunction with the waist-shaped holes on the mounting block, and the relative position of the blocking block can be adjusted to meet different usage requirements.

[0017] Furthermore, a flexible contact layer is adhered to the lower end of the blocking block.

[0018] The contact layer at the bottom of the blocking block is made of soft material to prevent the sponge sheet from being damaged due to hard contact.

[0019] Through the above scheme, the present invention has at least the following advantages: when in use, the device for grabbing the finished sponge sheet is driven by a robot to move to the top of the sponge sheet, and a vacuum pump and a pipeline are used to make the suction cup present a negative pressure state, so that the sponge sheet with the plastic film is grabbed, and then the sponge sheet is transferred to the transfer mechanism under the drive of the robot, thereby realizing the transfer of the sponge sheet, solving the inconvenience of manual handling, and not causing damage to the plastic film.

Specific embodiments

[0027] The following combines the drawings and embodiments to further describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present utility model, but are not used to limit the scope of the present utility model.

[0028] Refer to Figure 1 , for this device for grasping sponge sheet products, the middle part thereof is an adapter base 1 fixedly installed with a robotic arm. The adapter base 1 is installed on two parallel cross bars 2. The cross bars 2 are used to install the end fixing base 3. The connecting pipe 5 with a suction cup 4 is installed on the end fixing base 3. The robotic arm drives the device to move. The suction cup 4 contacts the sponge sheet covered with a plastic film. The vacuum pump can be installed on the cross bar 2 or on the base of the robotic arm installation. The vacuum pump is docked with the connecting pipe 5 through a pipeline. The vacuum pump pumps out the air in the suction cup 4, so that the suction cup 4 firmly sucks the sponge sheet. Then, the robotic arm drives the device to move, transfers the sponge sheet to the transfer device, and the vacuum pump injects gas into the suction cup 4 in the reverse direction, so that the sponge sheet is separated from the device to complete the transfer.

[0029] Refer to Figure 2 , the end fixing base 3 includes two parallel mounting rods 6. An installation plate 7 is fixed on the outside of the mounting rod 6. This installation plate 7 is used to install the connecting pipe 5, and the connecting pipe 5 is installed on the outside, which is convenient for its installation and fixation.

[0030] The connecting rod 5 can be installed at any position of the kidney-shaped groove 8 on the installation plate 7. The connecting pipe 5 passes through the kidney-shaped groove 8. Two nuts are arranged on both sides of the installation plate 7, and the nuts are screwed onto the thread of the connecting pipe 5, so that the connecting pipe 5 can be fixed on the installation plate 7. Through such an installation method, the relative height of the suction cup 4 on the connecting pipe 5 can also be adjusted to meet the use requirements of products of different sizes.

[0031] Refer to Figure 3 , the blocking block 9 below the mounting rod 6 is used to contact the sponge sheet to serve the purpose of auxiliary positioning. After slightly pressing the sponge sheet, the sponge sheet will not be displaced when the suction cup 4 sucks, which is convenient for grasping.

[0032] Refer to Figure 4, the blocking block 9 is fixedly installed on the mounting rod 6 through the mounting block 10 and the adapter block 11. A through hole is provided on the adapter block 11, and it can be fixed at any position on the mounting rod 6 by combining bolts and nuts, which is convenient for adjusting the relative position of the blocking block 9.

[0033] There are screw holes for installation on the upper edge of the blocking block 9. After the bolt passes through the kidney-shaped hole on the mounting block 10, it is screwed into the screw hole to complete the installation of the blocking block 9. The position of the bolt in the kidney-shaped hole can be adjusted, which is convenient for adjusting the position of the blocking block 9 and convenient for use.

[0034] The contact layer 12 pasted at the lower end of the blocking block 9 is made of a flexible material, and it will not damage the plastic film when it contacts the plastic film, protecting the integrity of the plastic film.

[0035] Finally, several points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, which can be mechanical connection or electrical connection, or the connection inside two components, and can be directly connected.
