[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] like Figures 1-4As shown, this embodiment provides a technical solution: a rotary sorting robot arm, including a column bracket 12, a ring support platform 18 is fixed on the top of the column bracket 12, a ring slide 5 is fixed on the top of the ring support platform 18, a base bearing support platform 19 is provided at the bottom center of the ring support platform 18, the top of the base bearing support platform 19 is rotatably connected to a longitudinal axis 20 through a bearing 9, a driven bevel gear 10 is provided on the longitudinal axis 20, a motor 21 is installed on one side of the top of the base bearing support platform 19, and a driving bevel gear is fixed on the output end of the motor 21. The driven bevel gear is meshed with the driven bevel gear 10, the top of the longitudinal axis 1 20 is connected to the longitudinal axis 2 22, the top of the longitudinal axis 2 22 is fixed with a polygonal support platform 11, the outer side of the polygonal support platform 11 is fixed with a slide 13 in an annular array, the bottom of one side of the slide 13 is fixed with an annular slider 4, the annular slider 4 is slidably connected to the annular slide rail 5, the top of the slide 13 is slidably connected to the longitudinal axis module 16, the interior of the longitudinal axis module 16 is slidably connected to the longitudinal axis mechanical arm 17 through the slide rail, and the active bevel gear on the motor 21 drives the driven gear meshed with it. The bevel gear rotates, and when the driven bevel gear rotates, it drives the longitudinal shaft 1 20 to rotate. At this time, the longitudinal shaft 1 20 rotates on the top of the base bearing support platform 19 with the cooperation of the bearing 9. When the longitudinal shaft 1 20 rotates, it drives the longitudinal shaft 2 22 to rotate, thereby driving the polygonal support platform 11 connected to the top of the longitudinal shaft 2 22 to rotate. The outer side of the polygonal support platform 11 is fixed with multiple slides 13 in an annular array. The side of the slide 13 is fixed with an annular slider 4. The annular slider 4 is slidably connected on the annular slide rail 5. When the polygonal support platform 11 rotates, it drives the slide 13 on the annular slider 4. The sorting objects are picked up by the longitudinal axis robot 17, and the sorting objects are sorted by the longitudinal axis robot 17. The sorting objects are sorted by the annular circular motion sorting and the multiple sorting mechanisms arranged in an annular manner. At the same time, multiple sorting objects can be grabbed, and then the sorted objects are placed in the designated area for circulation, which solves the technical problem that the existing technology can only operate on a single target, thereby increasing the cost and space.

[0026] The above solution also has the problem that due to the long lengths of the longitudinal axis 1 20 and the longitudinal axis 2 22, the problem of tilting and instability may occur during rotation. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown: In this solution, the longitudinal axis 1 20 and the longitudinal axis 2 22 are connected by a coupling 8, and an intermediate support platform 7 is provided on the outside of the longitudinal axis 2 22. The longitudinal axis 1 20 and the longitudinal axis 2 22 are connected by the coupling 8, and the intermediate support platform 7 is provided on the outside of the longitudinal axis 2 22.

By adding an intermediate support platform 7 to the outside of the longitudinal axis 2 22, the intermediate support platform 7 is fixed to the ground or on equipment, and the longitudinal axis 2 22 is stabilized by the intermediate support platform 7, which can effectively prevent the longitudinal axis 1 20 and the longitudinal axis 2 22 from tilting or being unstable due to length problems.

By starting the slide motor 1, the gear 1 on the driving end of the slide motor 1 is rotated on the rack 23 for lateral displacement, driving the longitudinal axis module 16 to move, thereby automatically operating and positioning it to the position of the sorting object.

[0028] Furthermore, if Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown: a reduction motor 3 is installed inside the longitudinal axis module 16, and a rack 24 is installed on the longitudinal axis robot 17. A gear 2 is fixed to the output end of the reduction motor 3, and the gear 2 is engaged with the rack 24. By starting the reduction motor 3, the gear 2 on the reduction motor 3 rotates on the rack 2 24 to perform longitudinal displacement, thereby driving the longitudinal axis robot 17 connected to the longitudinal axis module 16 through the slide rail to move up and down, thereby realizing the grasping and transfer of the sorted objects.

[0029] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a polygonal baffle 15 is installed on the top of the polygonal support platform 11, and the top of the polygonal support platform 11 is closed by the polygonal baffle 15.

[0030] Furthermore, if Figure 1 As shown: a buffer rubber 6 is provided at the bottom of the longitudinal axis robot arm 17. The setting of the buffer rubber 6 can prevent the longitudinal axis robot arm 17 from performing buffering when touching the ground, and prevent the longitudinal axis robot arm 17 from being damaged due to force problems caused by direct contact with the ground.

[0031] Specifically, by starting the motor 21, the active bevel gear on the motor 21 drives the driven bevel gear meshing with it to rotate, and when the driven bevel gear rotates, it drives the longitudinal shaft 1 20 to rotate. At this time, the longitudinal shaft 1 20 rotates on the top of the base bearing support platform 19 with the cooperation of the bearing 9.

The annular slider 4 is slidably connected on the annular slide rail 5. When the polygonal support platform 11 rotates, it drives the slide 13 to rotate in an annular manner on the annular slide rail 5 with the cooperation of the annular slider 4; a longitudinal axis module 16 for installing picking and sorting objects is slidably provided on the slide 13, through Start the slide motor 1, and the gear 1 on the driving end of the slide motor 1 rotates on the rack 1 23 to perform lateral displacement, thereby driving the longitudinal axis module 16 to move; the longitudinal axis module 16 is slidably connected to the longitudinal axis robot 17 through a slide rail (a sorting and grabbing mechanism can be added to the top of the longitudinal axis robot 17 for grabbing and placing the sorted objects), and by starting the reduction motor 3, the gear 2 on the reduction motor 3 rotates on the rack 2 24 to perform longitudinal displacement, thereby driving the longitudinal axis robot 17 connected to the longitudinal axis module 16 through the slide rail to move up and down; the sorting objects are picked up by the longitudinal axis robot 17, and the sorting objects are sorted through annular circular motion sorting and multiple annular sorting mechanisms. At the same time, multiple sorting objects can be grabbed, and then the sorted objects are placed in a designated area for this cycle.
