Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of suction cup grasping robots, in particular to a suction cup grasping robot with an anti-collision protection mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Suction cup gripper robots are highly efficient and flexible automated devices that utilize the negative pressure generated by suction cups to precisely grasp and carry objects on a variety of smooth, non-porous surfaces. Equipped with sophisticated control systems and sensors, these robots can accurately locate targets and adjust the force and position of the suction cups to accommodate objects of varying shapes, sizes, and weights. Whether used for parts handling in manufacturing, material handling on packaging lines, or cargo sorting and stacking in warehousing and logistics, suction cup gripper robots have demonstrated significant potential and high operational efficiency, significantly improving production efficiency and automation levels.

[0003] If the suction cup grasping robot does not have an anti-collision function during use, its significant disadvantage is that it cannot effectively avoid accidental contact with surrounding objects or people, which may cause damage to the equipment, increase safety hazards in the work area, and reduce production efficiency and the smoothness of the operation process. This lack of protection capability is particularly prominent in complex or dynamic working environments, limiting the application scope of the robot and increasing operational risks.
