[0038] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, a hydraulic positioner of the utility model comprises:

[0039] The base 1 is provided with a first rotation support portion 11, a second rotation support portion 12 and a third rotation support portion 13 in sequence along its length direction;

[0040] The support arm 2 includes a first end 21, a second end 22 and a third end 23 arranged in sequence along the length direction;

[0041] The flip seat 3 includes a first rotating portion 31 and a second rotating portion 32. The first end 21 of the support arm 2 is rotatably connected to the first rotating portion 31, and the third end 23 of the support arm 2 is rotatably connected to the second rotating support portion 12.

[0042] A rotation drive device 4 is installed on the flip seat 3;

[0043] A rotating device 5 connected to the driving end of the rotary drive device 4;

[0044] A lifting cylinder 6, wherein the mounting end of the lifting cylinder 6 is rotatably connected to the third rotating support portion 13, and the telescopic end of the lifting cylinder 6 is rotatably connected to the second end 22 of the support arm 2;

[0045] The tilting oil cylinder 7 has a mounting end that is rotatably connected to the first rotation support portion 11 , and a telescopic end that is rotatably connected to the second rotation portion 32 .

[0046] Through the above design, the first rotating support part 11, the second rotating support part 12 and the third rotating support part 13 are arranged in sequence in the length direction of the base 1, and the lifting cylinder 6, the flip cylinder 7 and the rotation drive device 4 of each driving device are tightly integrated between the flip seat 3 and the support arm 2, which significantly reduces the redundant space between the components in the traditional hydraulic positioner. The structure is compact, so that the positioner can still operate efficiently in a limited space, which is particularly suitable for robot applications in a small operating environment.

[0047] The lifting and retracting of the lifting cylinder 6 enables the lifting of the slewing device 5, the retracting and retracting of the tilting cylinder 7 enables the tilting of the slewing device 5, and the driving of the rotary drive device 4 enables the rotation of the slewing device 5. By providing the tilting cylinder 7, the lifting cylinder 6, and the rotary drive device 4, the three motion modes of lifting, tilting, and rotating the slewing device 5 are realized. The multi-degree-of-freedom control greatly improves the flexibility of the equipment, enabling it to better cope with complex working conditions such as multi-angle welding and precision assembly, and enhancing the adaptability and practicality of the equipment.

[0048] In one embodiment, a first articulated shaft is installed at the first rotating support part 11, the second rotating support part 12 and the third rotating support part 13, which enhances the structural stability and reliability of the entire hydraulic positioner, ensures smoother rotation connection of each supporting component, reduces wear and movement resistance, and improves the service life and movement accuracy of the equipment.

[0049] In one embodiment, two of the first rotation support 11, the second rotation support 12, and the third rotation support 13 are provided along the width direction of the base 1. This can effectively disperse the load, enhance the bearing capacity of the entire system, improve the stability of the hydraulic positioner when bearing heavy workpieces, and reduce stress concentration.

[0050] In one embodiment, the base 1 is provided with a protruding hinge seat 14 , the first rotation support portion 11 and the second rotation support portion 12 are arranged on the hinge seat 14 , and the horizontal height of the first rotation support portion 11 is higher than the horizontal height of the second rotation support portion 12 .

[0051] The first rotating support 11 and the second rotating support 12 are arranged at different levels, which can effectively optimize the force transmission path, increase the rigidity and stability of the system, and especially help improve the working efficiency of the jacking cylinder 6, reduce the cylinder stroke, and optimize the energy utilization of the hydraulic system.

[0052] In one embodiment, a second hinge shaft is installed at both the first rotating portion 31 and the second rotating portion 32 .

[0053] In one embodiment, the rotation drive device 4 is a reduction motor, which can provide higher torque output, adapt to heavy load conditions, and achieve more stable and precise rotation control.

[0054] In one embodiment, the rotating device 5 includes a rotating disk 51 and a support disk 52 connected to the rotating disk 51. The middle portion of the support disk 52 is connected to the driving end of the rotary drive device 4. The design of the support disk 52 can improve the stability of the rotating device 5 under high-speed rotation and avoid vibration and swing caused by eccentric loads.

[0055] It is understood that the rotary drive device 4 is mounted on the tilting base 3, and its output shaft is connected to the rotary disk 51 of the rotary device 5 via a coupling or gear meshing. Activation of the rotary drive device 4 drives the rotary disk 51 to rotate, thereby driving the entire rotary device 5 to rotate around its vertical axis.

[0056] In one embodiment, a second hinge shaft is installed at the second end 22 of the support arm 2 .

[0057] When the rotary device 5 needs to be raised or lowered, the control system activates the hydraulic system of the lifting cylinder 6. The extension and retraction of the lifting cylinder 6 raises or lowers the second end 22 of the support arm 2, thereby driving the entire rotary device 5 to move up or down to adjust the height of the workpiece on the rotary disk 51.

[0058] When the rotary device 5 needs to be flipped, the control system starts the flip cylinder 7. When the telescopic end of the flip cylinder 7 is extended or retracted, a thrust or pull is generated to drive the flip seat 3 to flip around the first rotating part 31, so that the workpiece can be operated at multiple angles.

[0059] When rotation of the rotary device 5 is required, the rotary drive device 4 (reduction motor) is activated. This activation of the rotary drive device 4 drives the turntable 51, thereby rotating the entire rotary device 5 around its vertical axis. This allows for continuous 360-degree rotation of the workpiece or rotation to a desired angle, making it suitable for applications requiring full-scale manipulation of the workpiece.

[0060] Finally, it should be noted that the above specific implementation methods are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model and are not limiting. Although the utility model is described in detail with reference to examples, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
