Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mechanical technology, and in particular relates to a hinged and detachable connection structure for a machine arm. Background Technology
[0002] The arms of multi-rotor drones account for a large portion of their volume. Therefore, in production and use, clips are installed at the connection between the arms and the fuselage to allow the arms to be folded or disassembled directly, achieving a result that minimizes the volume during transportation and storage. However, existing structures can only be folded or disassembled. While quick folding is the most convenient for transportation, such structures are often fixed. If disassembly is required due to arm damage, the operation is cumbersome and requires special tools. Although disassembly structures are easy to replace, removing all arms is time-consuming when the drone needs to be folded and moved during use. Therefore, developing a connection structure that can both hinge and fold quickly has been a problem that those skilled in the art have been pondering. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a hinged and detachable connection structure for the arm, which solves the technical problem in the prior art that the arm of a drone cannot simultaneously achieve folding and quick disassembly.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:
[0005] A hinged and detachable connection structure for a robotic arm includes: a mounting base and a hinge base. The mounting base is connected to the machine body. The mounting base and the hinge base are hinged and detachable. The other end of the hinge base has an extension connection portion, which is assembled and connected to the robotic arm. The end face of the mounting base has a first mounting base surface, and the hinge base has a second mounting base surface. The first mounting base surface and the second mounting base surface are fitted together. The lower part of the first mounting base surface has a hinge hook, and the upper right part of the first mounting base surface has a locking hook. The second mounting base surface has a hinge structure and a locking structure that match the hinge hook and the locking hook. The two parts are hinged and separable through the cooperation of the hinge hook and the hinge structure. The two parts are locked and fixed through the matching of the locking structure and the locking hook.
[0006] This utility model discloses a hinged and detachable connection structure for a machine arm. The hinge structure includes two hinge shaft mounting seats. The hinge shaft mounting seats protrude forward relative to the second mounting base. A hinge shaft is passed through the hinge shaft mounting seat. The hinge shaft can be engaged or disengaged from a hinge hook.
[0007] This utility model discloses a hinged and detachable connection structure for a machine arm. The hinge hook is located on the lower left side of the first mounting base and opens upward. There are two hinge hooks, and there is a hinge clearance notch between the two hinge hooks for the hinge shaft mounting seat to enter.
[0008] This utility model discloses a hinged and detachable connection structure for a machine arm. The locking structure includes a locking seat, which is located on the right side of the second mounting base. A locking vertical shaft passes through the top of the locking seat, and a locking horizontal shaft passes through the bottom of the locking vertical shaft. The locking seat and the locking horizontal shaft have vertically extending sliding grooves at their corresponding positions. During the up-and-down movement of the locking vertical shaft in the locking seat, the locking horizontal shaft engages or disengages with the locking hook, thereby achieving axial locking or disengagement.
[0009] This utility model discloses a hinged and detachable connection structure for a machine arm. The locking hook is located on the upper right side of the first mounting base and faces downward. There are two locking hooks, and there is a locking seat clearance notch between the two locking hooks for the locking seat to enter. The locking seat has locking hook receiving notches on both sides for the locking hooks to enter.
[0010] This utility model discloses a hinged and detachable connection structure for a machine arm, wherein a locking spring is externally fitted to the locking vertical shaft, and the locking spring, in its natural state, positions the locking horizontal shaft at the top of the sliding groove.
[0011] The present invention provides a hinged and detachable connection structure for a machine arm, wherein the top of the locking vertical shaft has a locking handle.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: It proposes a hinged and detachable connection structure for the arm. Through the cooperation of the hinge shaft and the hinge hook, with the opening of the hinge hook facing upwards, a hinged effect can be achieved. When disassembly is needed, the hinge shaft can be removed from the opening of the hinge hook to achieve disassembly and separation. Through the cooperation of the locking hook and the locking horizontal shaft, with the opening of the locking hook facing downwards, the locking horizontal shaft can be adjusted up and down to achieve cooperation and separation with the locking hook, thus achieving locking. A locking spring ensures that the normal state is locked. When disassembly is needed, simply press the locking handle downwards to unlock, and then separate the hinge shaft and the hinge hook to achieve disassembly. During assembly, first cooperate the hinge shaft and the hinge hook, and then rotate the hinge seat at a certain angle to achieve locking, thus achieving quick disassembly and quick locking. Furthermore, if only folding is required, only the upper part needs to be unlocked, and the lower part can be hinged and folded through the hinge shaft and the hinge hook. Attached Figure Description
