[0003] This application aims to address the problems mentioned in the background section.
[0004] This application discloses a robotic arm for assisting in the processing of fried foods, comprising:
[0005] A fixing component, wherein a mechanical arm is connected to the end of the fixing component, and a power unit is provided at the bottom of the fixing component;
[0006] A clamping assembly, comprising a drive member and a clamping member disposed at the output end of the drive member, the clamping member being used to clamp a frying container;
[0007] A linkage mechanism is provided between the fixing member and the clamping assembly. The power unit is used to drive the linkage mechanism to move and cause the linkage mechanism to drive the clamping assembly to rise and fall. This utility model, by setting a fixing member, a linkage mechanism and a clamping assembly, uses a power unit to drive the clamping assembly to rise and fall, and then uses the clamping assembly to clamp the frying container. At the same time, a robotic arm is used to adjust the position and angle, which can automatically fry the food, save manpower and time and control it precisely.
[0008] In one specific embodiment, the fixing component includes a mounting flange and a bracket fixedly connected to the mounting flange. The robotic arm is connected to the mounting flange, and the power unit is fixed to the bracket. The fixing component has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.
[0009] In one specific embodiment, the power unit is a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder, which is readily available and inexpensive.
[0010] In one specific embodiment, the driving component includes a mounting frame and a motor disposed within the mounting frame. A lead screw is fixed to the output end of the motor, and a cantilever is provided at the end of the mounting frame. The motor drives the lead screw to rotate, thereby driving the clamping component to clamp. The structure is simple and has high stability.
[0011] In one specific embodiment, the clamping member includes a left clamping arm and a right clamping arm pivotally connected to the cantilever. A slider is screwed onto the lead screw. The slider is pivotally connected to the left clamping arm and the right clamping arm. The forward and backward movement of the slider drives the left clamping arm and the right clamping arm to move towards each other, thereby clamping the frying container. The structure is simple and the clamping is stable.
[0012] Beneficial effects: This utility model, by setting up a fixing component, a linkage mechanism and a clamping assembly, uses a power unit to drive the clamping assembly to lift and lower, and then uses the clamping assembly to clamp the frying container. At the same time, the position and angle are adjusted by the robotic arm, which can automatically fry, saving manpower and time and controlling the process precisely. Attached Figure Description
