[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more precise definition of the protection scope of the present invention.

[0021] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as being "fixed to" another component, it may be directly on the other component or there may also be a central component. When a component is considered to be "connected to" another component, it may be directly connected to the other component or there may also be a central component. When a component is considered to be "set on" another component, it may be directly set on the other component or there may also be a central component. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only.

[0022] As attached Figure 1 The modular suction cup of the present invention is shown, comprising a suction cup body 1 and a suction cup mounting base, wherein the suction cup mounting base comprises an upper base body 2 and a lower base body 3 which are detachably connected. Figure 3 As shown, a cavity 21 is formed on one side of the upper seat body 2 close to the lower seat body 3, and a through hole 22 is processed between the cavity 21 and the upper surface of the upper seat body 2. A through hole corresponding to the cavity 21 is formed on the lower seat body 3, and the through hole includes an upper hole section 31 close to the upper seat body 2 and a lower hole section 32 away from the upper seat body 2. The diameter of the upper hole section 31 is larger than the diameter of the lower hole section 32.

[0023] As attached Figure 5 As shown, the suction cup body 1 includes a mounting portion 11 and a resilient suction cup portion 12. The mounting portion 11 includes a lower end 111 connected to the suction cup portion 12 and an upper end 112 remote from the suction cup portion 12. The diameter of the upper end 112 is larger than that of the lower end 111. During installation, the suction cup body 1 is inserted from above into the through-hole of the lower base body 3. The upper end 112 and the lower end 111 respectively engage the upper hole section 31 and the lower hole section 32, leaving the suction cup portion 12 exposed from the bottom of the lower base body 3. An air passage 13 is formed between the mounting portion 11 and the suction cup portion 12, communicating with the cavity 21. The edges of both the upper base body 2 and the lower base body 3 are machined with through-holes 4. The upper and lower base bodies 2 and 3 are connected by screws 5 passing through the mounting holes 4. This mounting structure ensures that the mounting portion 11 of the suction cup body 1 is firmly embedded in the suction cup mounting base, providing a tight connection that is not easily disengaged, making the suction cup more reliable. In this embodiment, the suction cup portion 12 has a double-layer structure, which has good cushioning performance and strong suction force, and is also suitable for work with a non-horizontal suction surface.

[0024] A solid PP ball 6 is placed within cavity 21. The depth of cavity 21 is greater than its diameter, allowing it to float up and down within it. A PET patch 7 is located between the upper and lower bases 2 and 3. This patch 7 has air holes 71 corresponding to the cavity 21. When the suction cup is sucking a small workpiece, a portion of the suction cup body 1 is free from contact with the workpiece. The PP ball 6 in the corresponding cavity 21 blocks the hole 22 upward, preventing pressure release.

[0025] A raised mounting wall 23 is formed around the edge of the upper surface of the upper base body 2. A sealing gasket 8 having a shape corresponding to the mounting wall 23 is provided on the upper base body 2 to improve the sealing performance of the connection between the suction cup and other equipment.

[0026] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present invention specification, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
