[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Apparently, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Refer to Figures 1 - 5 , an ultra-thin slide table blade cylinder includes an outer shell 1. A moving component 2 is provided on the outer wall of the outer shell 1.

An adsorption component 3 is installed on the outer wall of the moving component 2.

[0033] The driving unit includes an air source connecting pipe 201, a moving chassis 202, and a piston rod 203. The air source connecting pipe 201 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer shell 1. The air source connecting pipe 201 is communicated with an external high-pressure air pump. The high-pressure air pump can inject high-pressure gas into the interior of the outer shell 1 through the air source connecting pipe 201. The moving chassis 202 is arranged outside the outer shell 1. A telescopic rod 4 is installed inside the outer shell 1. The bottom end of the telescopic rod 4 penetrates through the outer shell 1 and the moving chassis 202 and is fixedly connected to the moving chassis 202. The bottom end of the telescopic rod 4 is fixedly connected with an inductor 5. When the moving chassis 202 moves, the inductor 5 can be driven to change its position through the telescopic rod 4. The piston rod 203 is installed inside the outer shell 1. The outer wall of the piston rod 203 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the outer shell 1. The bottom end of the piston rod 203 penetrates through the outer shell 1 and extends into the interior of the moving chassis 202. The piston rod 203 will push the moving chassis 202 to move under the action of high-pressure gas.

[0034] The limiting unit includes a guide rail 204, a connecting plate 205 and a slider 206. The guide rail 204 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the housing 1. The connecting plate 205 is fixedly connected to the top of the moving chassis 202. The slider 206 is installed on the outer wall of the guide rail 204. The outer wall of the connecting plate 205 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slider 206. The outer wall of the slider 206 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the guide rail 204. When the moving chassis 202 moves, the slider 206 can be driven by the connecting plate 205 to move on the outer wall of the guide rail 204.

[0035] By setting the guide rail 204 and the slider 206, when the high-pressure air inside the housing 1 pushes the piston rod 203 to move, the piston rod 203 will drive the moving chassis 202 to move. The moving chassis 202 drives the slider 206 to move on the surface of the guide rail 204. The presence of the guide rail 204 can limit the movement of the moving chassis 202 through the slider 206, ensuring the stability of the moving chassis 202 during position adjustment.

[0036] The adsorption assembly 3 includes a vacuum pump connecting pipe 301, a vacuum magnetic rod 302, a connecting pipe 303, a movable pipe 304, a spring 305, a fixed pipe 306 and a suction cup 307. The vacuum pump connecting pipe 301 is fixedly connected to the top of the housing 1. The vacuum pump connecting pipe 301 is communicated with an external vacuum pump. The vacuum pump can evacuate the housing 1 through the vacuum pump connecting pipe 301. The vacuum magnetic rod 302 is installed inside the housing 1. The outer wall of the vacuum magnetic rod 302 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the housing 1. The bottom end of the vacuum magnetic rod 302 penetrates the housing 1 and extends into the inside of the moving chassis 202. The air inside the moving chassis 202 can be pumped out through the vacuum magnetic rod 302 to form a negative pressure. The connecting pipe 303 is installed at the bottom of the moving chassis 202. The connecting pipe 303 is communicated with the inside of the moving chassis 202. The movable pipe 304 is installed at the bottom of the connecting pipe 303.

The outer wall of the movable pipe 304 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting pipe 303. The spring 305 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable pipe 304. The top of the spring 305 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting pipe 303. The movable pipe 304 and the spring 305 cooperate to prevent the moving chassis 202 from causing a large impact on the surface of the material during the process of pushing the suction cup 307 down, resulting in damage to the surface of the object. The fixed pipe 306 is installed at the bottom of the movable pipe 304. Threads are provided on the outer wall of the fixed pipe 306. The inner wall of the movable pipe 304 is adapted to the threads provided on the outer wall of the fixed pipe 306. The fixed pipe 306 can be disassembled and assembled with the movable pipe 304 through threading by rotation. The suction cup 307 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed pipe 306.

[0037] By setting the vacuum magnetic rod 302 and the suction cup 307, the vacuum degree inside the vacuum magnetic rod 302 can be precisely adjusted according to the weight, size, and material of the material, ensuring that the material can be stably adsorbed without being damaged. At the same time, vacuum suction uses a vacuum pump or other vacuum generating equipment to generate negative pressure inside the suction cup 307, and the material is firmly adsorbed on the suction cup 307 through atmospheric pressure. This method does not rely on the direct pushing and pulling force of physical contact, but realizes the grasping and movement of the material through stable negative pressure adsorption; it solves the problem of insufficient grasping force existing in the existing ultra-thin slide table blade cylinder; and compared with the traditional physical pushing and pulling method, there is almost no mechanical impact during the grasping process of vacuum suction, which is particularly important for grasping fragile or surface-sensitive materials. The vacuum suction method is less affected by external environments such as temperature and humidity and can maintain a stable grasping effect under variable environmental conditions.

[0038] The working principle of this ultra-thin slide table blade cylinder: The external air pump transports high-pressure air to the inside of the housing 1 through the air source connecting pipe 201, so that the piston rod 203 is driven by the high-pressure air to push the moving chassis 202 downward. At this time, the moving chassis 202 drives the vacuum magnetic rod 302, the suction cup 307, and the sensor 5 to descend until the bottom of the suction cup 307 contacts the surface of the material. Subsequently, the vacuum pump is started, and the vacuum pump extracts the internal air of the moving chassis 202 through the vacuum pump connecting pipe 301 and the vacuum magnetic rod 302, making the inside of the connecting pipe 303 form a negative pressure, and negatively adsorbing the material through the suction cup 307.

[0039] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made to the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
