[0036] In a preferred embodiment, the longitudinal inclination angle of the upper portion of the bent annular surface 9 is a, and the longitudinal inclination angle of the lower portion of the bent annular surface 9 is b. The diameter of the arc-shaped annular surface 21 is the same as that of the steel ball 16.
[0037] During actual use, the gun body 3 is inserted into the channel 23 of the shaped piston 4. The shaped piston 4, through compressed air, amplifies the force applied to the steel ball 16 at a suitable angle a, compressing the gun head 1 into contact with the gun body 3. Adjacent to the pressure angle is a negative angle b, ensuring self-locking in the event of an accident. Further connected is a release zone arcuate annular surface 21, with a radius corresponding to the steel ball 16, ensuring sufficient clearance for the steel ball 16 to escape with minimal linear displacement.
[0038] Furthermore, the gun head 1 is positioned by changing the gun holder 2 so that the gun head 1 can be quickly replaced.
[0039] A rotary gun head switching system includes the above-mentioned multi-channel rotary gun head quick-change structure and a gun changing seat 2.
[0040] A mounting groove 5 is provided on the gun changing seat 2, and an X-direction sensor 6 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting groove 5 along the first direction, and a Y-direction sensor 7 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting groove 5 along the second direction; at least one inner wall of the mounting groove 5 is provided with a plurality of positioning blocks 8; a positioning groove 10 is provided on the outer wall of the gun head 1, and the gun head is installed in the mounting groove 5, and the X-direction sensor 6 and the Y-direction sensor 7 are both facing the gun head 1, and the positioning block 8 can be clamped in the positioning groove 10.
[0041] During actual use, two sensors are provided on the gun changing seat 2. The X-direction sensor 6 is installed in the gun changing seat 2 along a first direction, which is the width direction of the gun changing seat 2. The Y-direction sensor 7 is installed in the gun changing seat 2 along a second direction, which is the length direction of the gun changing seat 2. The directions of the X-direction sensor 6 and the Y-direction sensor 7 are arranged vertically. The two vertically arranged sensors can detect the position of the gun head 1 from two directions and detect whether the gun head 1 is in a predetermined position. The position of the gun head 1 can be positioned by the positioning block 8. The gun changing seat 2 can position and clamp the gun head 1, so that the gun head 1 can be quickly replaced from the gun body 3.

In addition, the ball studs cooperate with the positioning grooves of the gun head 1 to achieve flexible positioning, compensating for the robot's motion accuracy and process debugging deviations.
[0047] Furthermore, a multi-channel rotating gun head quick-change structure is provided, wherein the two opposite side walls of the positioning groove 5 are provided with a limiting step 15. Specifically, the limiting step 15 is provided on the gun changing seat 2 to prevent the gun head 1 from being damaged by robot or human error.
[0048] Furthermore, a multi-channel rotating gun head quick-change structure is provided, wherein the second stepped portion 12 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes.
