[0019] In this technical solution, the servo motor 17 is controlled by the corresponding controller to drive the screw 13 to rotate. The threads on both sides of the screw 13 rotate in opposite directions, and the screw 13 is threadedly connected to the slider 14. During the rotation of the screw 13, the two groups of sliders 14 can be driven to move relative to or in reverse in the slide groove 12, thereby driving the two groups of splints 11 to move relative to or in reverse on the upper surface of the mobile base 1. When the two groups of splints 11 move relative to each other, the clamping block 16 can clamp the robot in the middle of the upper surface of the mobile base 1.

The second adjusting mechanism includes a connecting sleeve 15, which is horizontally fixedly connected to the outer side of the splint 11 from top to bottom. The interior of the connecting sleeve 15 is slidably connected to a piston 21. The side of the piston 21 away from the splint 11 is horizontally fixedly installed with a connecting rod 22. The connecting rod 22 is placed on the end outside the connecting sleeve 15 and is fixedly connected to the clamping block 16. The connecting rod 22 is matched with the size of the connecting sleeve 15. A connecting groove 2 is vertically opened inside the splint 11, and the connecting groove 2 is connected to the connecting sleeve 15.

The connecting rod 22 can pull the clamping block 16 to reset and separate it from the manipulator, making it convenient to remove the manipulator from the upper surface of the mobile base 1.

The threads on both sides of the screw rod 13 rotate in opposite directions, and the screw rod 13 is threadedly connected to the slider 14. During the rotation of the screw rod 13, the two groups of sliders 14 can be driven to move relative to or in reverse in the slide groove 12, thereby driving the two groups of splints 11 to move relative to or in reverse on the upper surface of the mobile base 1. When the two groups of splints 11 move relative to each other, the clamping block 16 can be driven to move, and the outlet pipe of the corresponding high-pressure air pump is connected to the air charging pipe 23, and the high-pressure air pump is controlled to work, so that air can be inflated into the connecting groove 2, and the connecting sleeve 15 slides with the piston 21.
