The rotation of the gear drives the tooth plate and card plate in the opposite position to move, so that the two card plates cooperate to clamp the object, and finally cooperate with the robotic arm to move the object to the designated position. This device is conducive to selecting the appropriate angle and size to clamp and transport the object according to the size and shape of the object, which is conducive to improving the adaptability of the device.

[0015] 2. In the above scheme, by providing the groove and the protective pad, it is beneficial for the protective pad to contact the outer wall of the object first when clamping the object, thereby protecting the outer wall of the object and preventing the metal from causing wear on the outer wall of the object, while also increasing the friction between the contact surface of the clamping plate and the object.
