Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of end effectors, in particular to an integrated robot end effector. Background Technique

[0002] The end effector is an important component in robot technology. It is installed at the front end of the robot arm and is used to directly grasp and hold the corresponding workpiece for operation, and can execute corresponding actions according to the commands issued by the computer. Currently, there are basically two types. One is a clamp structure to clamp the workpiece, mainly for non-flat workpieces. The other is a suction cup structure to adsorb the workpiece, mainly for relatively flat workpieces. Different structures of end effectors can be replaced according to the shape of the workpiece. When replacing, it is necessary to disassemble and reinstall the end effector from the robot arm, which is rather troublesome. Content of the Utility Model

Both ends of the outer wall of the bottom of the frame body are installed with slide rails, and both ends of the two slide rails are slidably installed with adjusting components. Both bottoms of the two adjusting components are installed with fixing frames, and cross bars are rotatably installed on the inner walls of the two fixing frames. Installation frames are fixed on the outer walls of the two cross bars, and clamping plates are installed at one ends of the two installation frames. Adsorption components are installed at the other ends of the two installation frames, and electrical slip rings are installed at one ends of the two cross bars. Electrically rotating platforms are installed on the outer walls of one sides of the two fixing frames.

[0005] The driving component includes a mounting plate, a motor bracket installed on the top of the mounting plate, a motor installed on the inner wall of the top of the motor bracket, a rotating shaft rotatably installed on the outer wall of the mounting plate, and a gear fixed on the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and the output shaft of the motor is connected to the rotating shaft.

[0008] The turning component includes a bent plate and an electric rotating platform installed on the outer wall of one side of the bent plate.

[0009] The electric suction cup is connected to the slip ring rotor in the electrical slip ring through a wire.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0011] An integrated robot end effector of the present utility model can adjust the distance between two adjustment components through the operation of a drive component, thereby adjusting the distance between two fixing frames, and further adjusting the distance between two clamping plates. It can clamp non-flattened workpieces. When it is difficult to clamp flattened workpieces and adsorption is required, two flipping components can drive two crossbars to rotate 90° respectively, so that the adsorption component is in a horizontal downward state, and the adsorption component can adsorb the flattened workpieces. This end effector integrates the clamping and adsorption functions, and the switching is simple, without the need for disassembly and reinstallation on the robot arm, which is more convenient.
