Description
Technical Field

[0002] Industrial robots are multi-joint manipulators or multi-degree-of-freedom machine devices widely used in the industrial field. They have a certain degree of automation and can realize various industrial processing and manufacturing functions relying on their own power sources and control capabilities. Industrial robots are widely applied in various industrial fields such as electronics, logistics, and chemical industry.
[0003] At present, due to the high cost of industrial robots, usually one industrial robot needs to work at multiple workstations in industrial production. This multi-station operation mode can effectively improve the utilization rate of equipment and production efficiency, thus maximizing the value of the robot. At different production workstations, it is necessary for the industrial robot to replace the adapted end effector (such as a gripper, a welding head, etc.). However, currently, the connection between the end effector and the robotic arm is usually a screw connection method, and tools are required for both disassembly and installation, which takes a long time to operate and reduces the switching speed of the industrial robot when switching between multiple workstations. Moreover, due to frequent switching of workstations, there is a lack of a protective structure on the robot's moving base, and it is easy to touch objects when switching workstations, resulting in damage to the robot's outer shell.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. The mobile industrial robot adaptable to multiple types of work is provided with a connection component group and a protection component group. Currently, the connection between the end effector and the robotic arm is usually in the form of screw connection. Tools are required for both disassembly and installation, which takes a long time to operate and reduces the switching speed of the industrial robot when switching between multiple workstations. In the corresponding designed connection component group, there are multiple sub-installation components. The number of sub-installation components can be adapted according to the number of end effectors used by the robotic arm at different workstations. Each end effector that needs to be connected to the robotic arm is connected to a sub-installation component at the installation position. The sub-disk body is connected to the end effector. When it is necessary to connect the end effector and the robotic arm, by controlling the motor component, the motor component starts and drives the driving bevel gear component to rotate through the working end. The driving bevel gear component drives the vertical transmission shaft and the threaded rod to rotate through the bevel gear. The threaded rod rotates and drives the adjusting plate to displace through the thread, thereby driving the inner rod connected to the adjusting plate to move. The spring component will store energy and contract, and the block will move into the chute of the mother disk body. At this time, the plug on the sub-disk body is inserted into the mother disk body through the slot. As the plug is inserted to the bottom of the slot, the driving of the motor component is stopped. The motor component will not self-lock. At this time, the spring component releases the stored energy and pushes out the block. The block contacts the plug through the card slot, completing the clamping and limiting of the plug, and thus completing the installation connection between the end effector and the robotic arm. When it is necessary to replace the end effector, the motor component is driven to drive the block to release the clamping contact with the plug. The spring component stores energy and contracts, and the end effector to be replaced is removed. The required end effector is installed. During installation, it is also in the way of inserting the plug into the slot in the mother disk body. By stopping the driving of the motor component, the motor component will not self-lock, and the block will limit and lock the plug through the card slot to complete the replacement and installation between the end effector and the robotic arm. The design of this connection component group, compared with the screw connection method in the prior art, has less manual operation and faster installation speed during disassembly and installation through the control of the motor component, improving the efficiency when replacing the end effector;
[0014] 2. The mobile industrial robot adaptable to multiple types of work is provided with a protective component group. When switching work positions, it is easy to touch objects and cause damage to the robot's outer shell. In the correspondingly designed protective component group, the number of horizontal protective frame components can be adjusted according to actual needs. The horizontal protective frame components to be installed are mounted on the frame through bolts and nuts. The protective bar and the rubber buffer pad form a structure for protecting the front and rear sides of the mobile base. External collisions can only contact the horizontal protective frame components, while the side of the mobile base is protected by the rubber buffer pad II. Both the rubber buffer pad II and the rubber buffer pad I can absorb the impact force of the collision, thereby reducing the damage caused by the collision to the shell of the mobile base and improving the safety of the mobile use of this mobile industrial robot.

[0031] Working principle: Currently, the connection between the end effector and the robotic arm is usually a screw connection method, and tools are required for both disassembly and installation. The operation takes a long time, reducing the switching speed of the industrial robot when switching between multiple workstations. In the corresponding designed connection component group 02, there are multiple sub-installation components 21. The number of sub-installation components 21 can be adapted according to the number of end effectors used by the robotic arm 11 at different workstations. Each end effector that needs to be connected to the robotic arm 11 is connected to a sub-installation component 21 at the installation position. The sub-disc body 211 is connected to the end effector. When it is necessary to connect the end effector and the robotic arm 11, by controlling the motor component 222, the motor component 222 starts and drives the driving bevel gear 223 to rotate through the working end. The driving bevel gear 223 drives the vertical transmission shaft 224 and the threaded rod 225 to rotate through the bevel gear.

The locking block 2210 contacts the plug 212 through the card slot, completing the clamping and limiting of the plug 212, and thus completing the installation connection between the end effector and the robotic arm 11. When it is necessary to replace the end effector, the motor component 222 is driven to drive the locking block 2210 to release the clamping contact with the plug 212. The spring member 2211 stores energy and contracts, and the end effector to be replaced is removed. The required end effector is installed. During installation, it is also the way of inserting the plug 212 into the slot in the mother disc body 221. By stopping the driving of the motor component 222, the motor component 222 does not have self-locking, and the locking block 2210 limits and locks the plug 212 through the card slot to complete the replacement installation between the end effector and the robotic arm 11. The design of this connection component group 02, compared with the screw connection method in the prior art, has less manual operation and faster installation speed during disassembly and installation through the control of the motor component 222, improving the efficiency when replacing the end effector.When switching workstations, it is easy to touch objects and cause damage to the robot's outer shell. In the corresponding protective component group 03, the number of the horizontal protective frame components 32 can be adjusted according to actual needs. The horizontal protective frame components 32 to be installed are mounted on the frame body 31 through bolts and nuts. The protective bar 321 and the first rubber buffer pad 322 form a structure for protecting the front and rear sides of the moving base 12. External collisions can only contact the horizontal protective frame components 32, while the side of the moving base 12 is protected by the second rubber buffer pad 33. Both the second rubber buffer pad 33 and the first rubber buffer pad 322 can absorb the impact force of the collision, thereby reducing the damage caused by the collision to the shell of the moving base 12 and improving the safety of the mobile industrial robot during movement.
