[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the following exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments described herein. Based on the embodiments of the present invention described in this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0023] In the following description, numerous details are provided to facilitate a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the following description merely illustrates preferred embodiments of the present invention, and that the present invention may be practiced without one or more of these details. Furthermore, to avoid confusion with the present invention, some technical features well known in the art have not been described in detail.

[0024] To thoroughly understand the embodiments of the present invention, a detailed structure will be provided in the following description. Obviously, the implementation of the embodiments of the present invention is not limited to the specific details familiar to those skilled in the art. Preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, but in addition to these detailed descriptions, the present invention may also have other embodiments.

[0025] In one embodiment of the present application, a material transfer mechanism is provided. The material transfer mechanism not only has a multi-directional range of motion, but also can prevent the material from being spilled or overturned during the clamping and transfer process. The following will describe in detail a material transfer mechanism according to an embodiment of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the material transfer mechanism includes a drive assembly 1, a rotating assembly 2, and a gripper assembly 3 for gripping materials. The rotating assembly 2 is connected to the drive assembly 1 and rotates about a rotational centerline driven by the drive assembly 1. The rotating assembly 2 has an output end 21, and the gripper assembly 3 is connected to the output end 21 to rotate with the rotating assembly 2. The rotating assembly 2 is connected to a transmission assembly 4. When the rotating assembly 2 rotates about the rotational centerline, the gripper assembly 3 rotates with the rotating assembly 2 through the transmission assembly 4, and rotates about its own rotation axis to maintain the direction of the gripped material.

[0027] The rotating component 2 can have a rotation center line that rotates in a vertical plane. One end of the rotating component 2 is connected to the driving component 1, and the other end of the rotating component 2 is connected to the clamping component 3. Driven by the driving component 1, the clamping component 3 can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise around its rotation center line in the vertical plane.

[0028] Driven by the transmission assembly 4, the output end 21 of the rotating assembly 2 can freely rotate relative to the rotating assembly 2. Specifically, when the jaw assembly 3 is gripping material, the drive assembly 1 drives the rotating assembly 2, which in turn drives the jaw assembly 3 to rotate within a vertical plane. Furthermore, while the transmission assembly 4 rotates with the rotating assembly 2, it can also drive the jaw assembly 3, via its output end 21, to rotate about its own rotational axis, ensuring that the material is always gripped in a vertical direction.

[0029] The clamping jaw assembly 3 may include a first driving member 31 and a clamping jaw 32. The first driving member 31 may drive the clamping jaw 32 to rotate circumferentially in the horizontal direction, so that the clamping jaw assembly 3 has a larger clamping range, thereby improving the flexibility and practicality of the material transfer mechanism.

[0030] In the above embodiment, it can be ensured that the clamping jaw assembly 3 rotates under the drive of the rotating assembly 2, and the direction of the material clamped by the clamping jaw assembly 3 can also be kept unchanged through the transmission assembly 4. In this way, not only can the movement range of the clamping jaw assembly 3 be effectively improved, but also the material can be avoided from being spilled or overturned during the clamping and transportation process, which effectively improves the reliability and stability of the material transfer mechanism, as well as the safety and experience of users.

[0031] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The rotating assembly 2 includes a swing arm 22 having a first position and a second position, the driving assembly 1 is connected to the first position of the swing arm 22 through a first shaft 5, and the center line of the first shaft 5 forms a rotating center line; the clamping jaw assembly 3 is connected to the second position of the swing arm 22 through a second shaft 6.

[0032] The swing arm 22 can have a first position and a second position away from each other. The swing arm 22 can be in the shape of a long strip plate, which can ensure that the swing arm 22 has enough space to be connected to the transmission assembly 4 and the clamping jaw assembly 3, and can also reduce the volume space occupied by the rotating assembly 2.

[0033] The first shaft 5 can be connected to the first position of the swing arm 22, and the clamping jaw assembly 3 can be connected to the second position of the swing arm 22 through the output end 21 and the second shaft 6 in sequence. In this way, when the driving assembly 1 drives the rotating assembly 2 to rotate in the vertical plane through the first shaft 5, the clamping jaw assembly 3 can be synchronously rotated at the second position through the swing arm 22, and rotated around the second shaft 6 through the output end 21 to keep the direction of the clamped material unchanged.

[0034] In the above embodiment, the driving assembly 1 and the clamping jaw assembly 3 can be connected to the first position and the second position on the swing arm 22 through the first shaft 5 and the second shaft 6 respectively, and when the rotating assembly 2 rotates around the first shaft 5, the rotating range of the clamping jaw assembly 3 connected to the second shaft 6 can be effectively improved, thereby improving the flexibility and practicability of the material transfer mechanism.

[0035] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The transmission assembly 4 includes a first wheel body 41, a second wheel body 42, and a transmission belt 43, the first wheel body 41 is sleeved outside the first shaft 5, the second wheel body 42 is fixedly connected to the second shaft 6, the end of the second shaft 6 away from the second wheel body 42 forms the output end 21, and the transmission belt 43 is wound between the first wheel body 41 and the second wheel body 42.

[0036] The two ends of the first shaft 5 can be connected to the first position of the swing arm 22 and the driving assembly 1 respectively, the first wheel body 41 can be sleeved outside the first shaft 5, and the second wheel body 42 can be sleeved outside the second shaft 6 and connected to the second shaft 6. And the second wheel body 42 and the first wheel body 41 are arranged in parallel along the length direction of the long strip plate-shaped swing arm 22.

[0037] The transmission belt 43 can be sleeved on the outside of the first wheel body 41 and the second wheel body 42. When the driving assembly 1 drives the first shaft 5 to rotate, the first shaft 5 can drive the swing arm 22 and the second shaft 6 to rotate synchronously, and the second wheel body 42 can perform planetary motion around the first wheel body 41 under the joint drive of the second shaft 6 and the transmission belt 43, that is, the second wheel body 42 can rotate around the first wheel body 41 while also rotating around the rotation center of the second wheel body 42.

[0038] In the above embodiment, when the jaw assembly 3 is driven by the swing arm 22 to rotate, the second shaft 6 and the swing arm 22 can be rotated relative to each other through the action of the first wheel body 41, the second wheel body 42 and the transmission belt 43, and then the jaw assembly 3 and the swing arm 22 can be rotated relative to each other through the output end 21 connected to the second shaft 6. In this way, not only is it ensured that the direction of the material clamped by the jaw assembly 3 is always in the vertical direction, but also the structure of the transmission assembly 4 is compact and the layout is reasonable.

[0039] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the swing arm 22 is provided with a through hole at the second position, and the second shaft 6 is sequentially provided with a shaft end 61, a shaft body matching portion 62 and a connecting portion 63 in the axial direction. The shaft body matching portion 62 is passed through the through hole, and the shaft end 61 and the connecting portion 63 are respectively located on both sides of the swing arm 22. The second wheel body 42 is fixedly connected to the connecting portion 63, and the output end 21 is formed on the shaft end 61.

[0040] The second shaft 6 may be disposed at the second position of the swing arm 22 through the through hole, and the shaft end 61 and the connecting portion 63 of the second shaft 6 may be located at two opposite sides of the swing arm 22 .

[0041] The output end 21 may be shaped like a convex block and formed on a side of the shaft end surface away from the swing arm 22 . The clamping jaw assembly 3 may be connected to the second shaft 6 via the output end 21 .

[0042] In some other embodiments, the output end 21 may be provided independently from the shaft end 61 , and the output end 21 and the shaft end 61 may be connected by a snap connection or a screw connection.

[0043] In the above embodiment, the second shaft 6 can be passed through the second position of the swing arm 22, and the shaft end 61 and the connecting portion 63 of the second shaft 6 are respectively connected to the clamping jaw assembly 3 and the second wheel body 42. In this way, the connection structure between the various components of the material transfer mechanism is greatly simplified, and the manufacturing difficulty and manufacturing cost of the material transfer mechanism are reduced.

[0044] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, a first bearing 7 is provided on the outer sleeve of the shaft matching portion 62 , and the swing arm 22 is rotatably connected to the shaft matching portion 62 via the first bearing 7 .

[0045] The first bearing 7 can reduce the friction between the shaft fitting portion 62 and the swing arm 22, so that the shaft fitting portion 62 can rotate more smoothly, thereby reducing the rotational resistance of the shaft fitting portion 62 and improving the rotational efficiency of the second shaft 6.

[0046] The first bearing 7 can also avoid direct contact between the shaft matching portion 62 and the swing arm 22, thereby avoiding wear of the shaft matching portion 62 and the swing arm 22, thereby extending the service life of the second shaft 6 and the swing arm 22.

[0047] In the above embodiment, the first bearing 7 allows the second shaft 6 to rotate freely relative to the swing arm 22. This allows the swing arm 22 to rotate the jaw assembly 3 about the first shaft 5 in a vertical plane, while the jaw assembly 3 can rotate relative to the swing arm 22 via the second shaft 6, thereby maintaining the direction of the clamped material. This also effectively improves the rotational efficiency and smoothness of the second shaft 6, preventing material spillage during movement.

[0048] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the transmission assembly 4 also includes a connecting member 44, and the connecting member 44 and the swing arm 22 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the first wheel body 41, and the connecting member 44 is connected to the first wheel body 41, and the end of the first shaft 5 away from the swing arm 22 passes through the connecting member 44 and is connected to the driving assembly 1.

[0049] In the above embodiment, the connecting member 44 can be connected to the first wheel body 41, so that when the drive assembly 1 drives the first shaft 5 to rotate, the connecting member 44 limits the rotation of the first wheel body 41. In this way, the second wheel body 42 can rotate around the first wheel body 41 with the first wheel body 41 as the center, driven by the swing arm 22 and the second shaft 6 via the transmission belt 43, effectively ensuring the rationality and compactness of the layout of the transmission assembly 4.

[0050] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, a second bearing 8 is provided on the outer sleeve of the first shaft 5 , and the first shaft 5 is rotatably connected to the connecting member 44 through the second bearing 8 .

[0051] The second bearing 8 can avoid direct contact and friction between the first shaft 5 and the connecting member 44 to reduce the rotational resistance of the first shaft 5, thereby effectively reducing the energy loss of the driving assembly 1 and improving the driving efficiency of the driving assembly 1.

[0052] The second bearing 8 can reduce the friction between the first shaft 5 and the connecting member 44 , so that the first shaft 5 can rotate more smoothly, effectively improving the rotation efficiency of the first shaft 5 .

[0053] The second bearing 8 can also avoid direct contact between the first shaft 5 and the connecting member 44 , thereby avoiding wear of the first shaft 5 and the connecting member 44 , thereby extending the service life of the first shaft 5 and the connecting member 44 .

[0054] In the above embodiment, the second bearing 8 can make the rotation between the first shaft 5 and the connecting member 44 smoother, effectively improving the rotation efficiency and rotation stability of the first shaft 5 and reducing the energy consumption of the drive assembly 1.

[0055] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, the material transfer mechanism further includes a lifting assembly 9, the transmission assembly 4 is connected to the lifting assembly 9 through the driving assembly 1, and the lifting assembly 9 drives the clamping claw assembly 3 to move in the vertical direction.

[0056] The lifting assembly 9 may include a second driving member 91, a third wheel body 92, a fourth wheel body (not shown in the figure), and a first belt body 93. The third wheel body 92 and the fourth wheel body may be spaced apart in the vertical direction. The first belt body 93 may be sleeved on the third wheel body 92 and the fourth wheel body. The driving assembly 1 may be connected to the first belt body 93, and the second driving member 91 may be connected to the third wheel body 92. When the second driving member 91 drives the third wheel body 92 to rotate in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, the driving assembly 1 may move synchronously in the vertical direction under the drive of the third wheel body 92, the fourth wheel body, and the first belt body 93.

[0057] In the above embodiment, the lifting assembly 9 can drive the driving assembly 1 to move in the vertical direction, and then drive the transmission assembly 4 and the clamping assembly 3 connected to the driving assembly 1 to move in the vertical direction, effectively improving the transfer range and flexibility of the material transfer mechanism.

[0058] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, the material transfer mechanism further includes a translation assembly 10 , the driving assembly 1 is connected to the translation assembly 10 via the lifting assembly 9 , and the translation assembly 10 drives the clamping jaw assembly 3 to move in the horizontal direction.

[0059] The translation assembly 10 may include a third driving member (not shown), a fifth wheel 101, a sixth wheel 102, and a second belt 103. The fifth wheel 101 and the sixth wheel 102 may be spaced apart in the horizontal direction. The second belt 103 may be sleeved over the fifth wheel 101 and the sixth wheel 102. The translation assembly 10 may be connected to the second belt 103, and the third driving member may be connected to the fifth wheel 101. When the third driving member drives the fifth wheel 101 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, the translation assembly 10 may move synchronously in the horizontal direction under the drive of the fifth wheel 101, the sixth wheel 102, and the second belt 103.

[0060] The side of the translation assembly 10 close to the lifting assembly 9 can be provided with a sliding rail 104, and the lifting assembly 9 can be provided with a sliding groove 94 matched with the sliding rail 104. Through the sliding connection between the sliding groove 94 and the sliding rail 104, the lifting assembly 9 can have better stability when moving in the horizontal direction.

[0061] In the above embodiment, the translation assembly 10 can drive the lifting assembly 9 to move in the horizontal direction, and then drive the driving assembly 1, the clamping jaw assembly 3 and other assemblies to move in the horizontal direction, so that the material transfer mechanism has the ability to transfer materials in a narrow space, and further improves the transfer range and flexibility of the material transfer mechanism.
