Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on specific circumstances.

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0027] Example 1: Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, a mechanical gripper automatic compensation positioning device includes a base plate 1, a slide 4 and a first magnet 7 are provided on the base plate 1, a through hole 16, a rotating groove 9 and a limit groove 10 are provided on the slide 4, the limit groove 10 is provided on the surface of the slide 4 opposite to the base plate 1, the rotating groove 9 is provided on the top surface of the slide 4 and is connected with the limit groove 10, a connecting column 6 is rotatably arranged in the through hole 16, a second magnet 8 is fixedly provided at one end of the connecting column 6, the second magnet 8 is opposite to the first magnet 7, a rotating seat is fixedly provided at the other end of the connecting column 6, a limiting column 11 is also provided on the rotating seat, the free end of the limiting column 11 is located in the limiting groove 10 after passing through the rotating groove 9, and a limiting plate 12 is also fixedly provided at the free end of the limiting column 11.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a slide rail 2 is fixedly provided on the base plate 1 , a slider 3 is fixedly provided on the slide plate 4 , and the slide plate 4 and the base plate 1 are slidably connected to each other through the slider 3 and the slide rail 2 .

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, a mounting groove 15 is provided on the slide 4 , and the rotating seat is located in the mounting groove 15 .

[0030] like Figure 7 As shown, the limiting column 11 is also provided with a sliding assembly 14 and a spring 13 . The spring 13 is located between the sliding assembly 14 and the limiting plate 12 . A support tube 17 is also provided outside the spring 13 . The support tube 17 is fixed to the limiting plate 12 .

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the sliding assembly 14 includes a washer 141 , a retainer 142 and a plurality of balls 143 . The plurality of balls 143 are rotatably disposed on the retainer 142 , and the washer 141 is located between the retainer 142 and the spring 13 .

[0032] Specifically, the limiting plate 12 is a circular plate, the limiting column 11 is a cylinder, and the cross-sectional diameter of the limiting column 11 is the same as the width of the rotation slot 9 . The diameter of the limiting plate 12 is not less than the width of the rotation slot 9 .

[0033] The working process of this embodiment is as follows: when working, the linear drive device drives the slide plate 4 to slide on the bottom plate 1, and the slide plate 4 stops when it slides to the specified position. Figure 5 As shown, since the magnetic poles of the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 are in opposite positions, when the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 are close to each other, they will attract each other and compensate for the position of the slide 4; then the rotary seat will drive the mechanical gripper to grab and discharge the product. When the mechanical gripper grabs or discharges the product, the rotary seat will rotate under the action of the rotary drive device. At this time, Figure 6As shown, the opposite poles on the two magnets will move relative to each other, and when the two poles of the same phase approach each other, a repulsive force will be generated. Under the action of the repulsive force, the rotating seat will be pushed up. When the mechanical gripper moves beyond the limit position when grabbing or releasing the material, the reaction force will be transmitted to the rotating seat. When the rotating seat is subjected to the reaction force transmitted by the mechanical gripper, it will move closer to the bottom plate 1. The magnetic force compensation can avoid damaging the product when grabbing the product or crushing the product when releasing the material.

[0034] It should be noted that only one set of magnets is provided in this embodiment. The compensation effect can be increased by providing multiple sets of magnets according to the actual working conditions. The switching of magnetic poles can also be achieved by installing electromagnets in conjunction with the electronic control system, which can meet the working conditions of a small rotation angle of the rotating seat.

[0035] The above describes an embodiment of the present invention in detail. However, the above content is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and should not be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the patent application of the present invention.
