For example, they may refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and internal connections between two components. A person of ordinary skill in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0020] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the furnace unloading robot of the present invention includes a base 1, the upper end of which is mounted a robotic arm 2, and the end of the robotic arm 2 is mounted a robotic arm mounting plate 3. The robotic arm mounting plate 3 is provided with a gripping mechanism 4, and the gripping mechanism 4 includes a fixed lower furnace fixture 41 and a movable lower furnace fixture 42. The fixed lower furnace fixture 41 is arranged in front of the robotic arm mounting plate 3. The clamping surface of the fixed lower furnace fixture 41 is opposite to the robotic arm mounting plate 3 and is located in front of the mold. The movable lower furnace fixture 42 can move back and forth, and its clamping surface is located behind the mold. The fixed lower furnace fixture 41 and the movable lower furnace fixture 42 are respectively provided with a plurality of V-shaped grooves. The V-shaped grooves 411 of the fixed lower furnace fixture 41 and the V-shaped grooves 421 of the movable lower furnace fixture 42 correspond to each other and clamp different molds. There are two fixed lower furnace fixtures 41, respectively fixed to the upper and lower parts of the robotic arm mounting plate 3, and the movable lower furnace fixture 42 is located between the fixed lower furnace fixtures 41. The movable lower furnace fixture 42 is driven by an electric cylinder 43 or a pneumatic cylinder to move forward and backward. After the robotic arm 2 drives the grabbing mechanism 4 to reach the grabbing position, the movable lower furnace fixture 42 moves forward close to the mold and cooperates with the fixed lower furnace fixture 41 to clamp the pipe coiling mold 9.

[0021] The manipulator mounting plate 3 is provided with one or more gripping mechanisms 4. The gripping mechanisms 4 shown in this embodiment have five V-shaped grooves on their fixed lower furnace fixture 41 and movable lower furnace fixture 42, respectively. The manipulator mounting plate 3 is provided with two gripping mechanisms 4, which can simultaneously grip 10 molds with high gripping efficiency.

[0023] The robotic arm 2 comprises a shoulder 21, an upper arm 22, an elbow 23, a lower arm 24, and a wrist 25. Adjacent components are connected via revolving joints. The shoulder 21 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the wrist 25 is connected to the manipulator mounting plate 3. The base 1 is connected to a slide 7, which moves along a floor rail 8. The robotic arm 2 is composed of multiple sections, each of which is rotatable, providing high operational flexibility. The movement of the slide 7 along the floor rail 8 drives the furnace unloading robot to move to different locations and different curing furnaces.
