Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of teaching equipment, and particularly relates to a quick-change tool rack for a robot comprehensive training table. Background Art

[0002] Industrial robots are widely used in the manufacturing industry, and their working scenarios are diverse, including measurement and inspection, packaging, sorting and handling, handling, palletizing, filling, machine loading and unloading, assembly, metal cutting, welding, spraying, etc. In many scenarios, industrial robots are not limited to a single task, and multiple tools and tool storage racks are required for multiple working conditions.

[0003] Traditional tool storage racks are usually statically fixed, which means that when a robot needs to replace the end effector to perform different tasks, it must interrupt the current operation and return to a preset tool storage station. This process not only significantly increases the complexity of the operation process, but also places higher requirements on the path planning and control system of the robot. More importantly, frequent round-trip movements not only waste valuable production time, reduce the overall work efficiency, but also may bring additional accuracy errors due to repeated positioning, affecting the operation quality.
