[0024] See also Figure 1-5 A gripping force detection device for an industrial robot includes a device base 1 and a device body 3. Two mutually symmetrical support frames 2 are installed on the device base 1. The device body 3 is slidably installed between the two support columns. A weighing mechanism 10 is provided on the top of the device base 1. The weighing mechanism 10 is arranged directly below the device body 3. A groove 15 is provided on the top of the device body 3. Two mutually symmetrical tension sensors 17 are arranged in the groove 15. The tension sensor 17 is connected to a clamping plate 12. A load-bearing cavity 11 is provided on the device body 3. A movable cover 5 is hinged at the open end of the load-bearing cavity 11. A control panel 7 is provided on the top of the device base 1. The control panel 7 is electrically connected to the tension sensor 17.
[0025] By setting up a weighing mechanism 10, the weight of the device body 3 can be detected, and the gripping force test of the industrial robot can be realized through the structures such as the clamping plate 12 and the tension sensor 17. When the industrial robot is tested, it is clamped by the two clamping plates 12 of the industrial robot, and the clamping force of the industrial robot can be obtained by the values detected by the two tension sensors 17. The pulling force of the industrial robot can be tested by adding a breeding block to the load-bearing chamber 11, thereby improving the detection functionality of the device. At the same time, the movement direction of the device body 3 can be restricted by the setting of the two support frames 2 to prevent the device body 3 from rolling when it falls.
[0026] Specifically, in this embodiment, a reset slide groove 4 is provided on the device body 3 , a reset plug block 21 is slidably arranged in the reset slide groove 4 , and a limiting slot 6 adapted to the reset plug block 21 is provided on the movable cover 5 .
[0027] By cooperating with the reset slide 4, the reset plug 21 and the limit slot 6 and other structures, when the movable cover 5 and the device body 3 are closed, the reset plug 21 can be inserted into the limit slot 6 to achieve locking and fixation between the movable cover 5 and the device body 3.
[0028] Specifically, in this embodiment, a return spring 22 is provided in the return chute 4 , one end of the return spring 22 is mounted on the inner wall of the return chute 4 , and the other end of the return spring 22 is mounted on the return plug 21 .
[0029] By setting the reset spring 22, the reset plug 21 can always be pressed against the inner wall of the reset slide 4, and the bottom of the reset plug 21 can always be pressed against the limit slot 6, ensuring the stability of the locking between the movable cover 5 and the device body 3.
[0030] Specifically, in this embodiment, a buffer cavity 13 is provided on the side of the two clamping plates 12 away from each other, and a movable plate 16 is slidably arranged in the buffer cavity 13. A number of buffer springs 14 distributed in a matrix are arranged in the buffer cavity 13, and one end of the buffer spring 14 is installed on the inner wall of the buffer cavity 13, and the other end of the buffer spring 14 is installed on the movable plate 16. Horizontal limit grooves 19 are provided on the inner walls on both sides of the buffer cavity 13, and a horizontal limit block 20 is slidably arranged in the horizontal limit groove 19, and the horizontal limit block 20 is installed on the movable plate 16.
[0031] By setting up the buffer cavity 13, the movable plate 16 and the buffer spring 14, it can be ensured that when the industrial robot clamps the two clamping plates 12, it squeezes the movable plate 16, so that the movable plate 16 slides into the buffer cavity 13 and squeezes the buffer spring 14. The elastic potential energy of the buffer spring 14 can make the movable plate 16 always press against the clamping claw of the industrial robot, thereby increasing the friction between the clamping claw of the industrial robot and the clamping plate 12, thereby preventing the device body 3 from slipping during the pulling detection process.
[0032] Specifically, in this embodiment, a plurality of anti-slip rubber strips 18 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction on the surface of the movable plate 16 .
[0033] The anti-slip rubber strip 18 can further increase the friction between the industrial robot's clamping claw and the clamping plate 12 to prevent the device body 3 from slipping during the pulling detection process.
[0034] Specifically, in this embodiment, vertical limit grooves 8 are provided on the inner sides of the two support frames 2 , vertical limit blocks 9 are slidably arranged in the vertical limit grooves 8 , and the vertical limit blocks 9 are installed on the device body 3 .
[0035] Through the mutual cooperation between the vertical limit groove 8 and the vertical limit block 9, the device body 3 can drive the two vertical limit blocks 9 to slide along the vertical limit groove 8 during the pulling experiment, guiding the moving direction of the device body 3 while limiting the moving range of the device body 3.
