For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above-mentioned term in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0026] Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the present application provides a hand claw 100 for grasping a first workpiece 2000, the first workpiece 2000 can be a sheet-shaped structural member. The hand claw 100 comprises a connecting mechanism 10, a suction mechanism 20 and an image acquisition mechanism 30. In the present embodiment, the hand claw 100 is used to grasp the first workpiece 2000, and assemble the first workpiece 2000 on a second workpiece 3000, which can be a keyboard shell, a notebook computer shell, a tablet shell, etc.

[0028] Specifically, the connecting mechanism 10 is used to connect an external mobile device, which can be a mobile mechanism 210 as described below, or a mechanical arm, a linear module, etc., which can drive the connecting mechanism 10 to move, which is not limited here.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 4The suction mechanism 20 comprises a suction subassembly 21 connected to the connecting mechanism 10 and a cover 22 connected to the suction subassembly 21. The suction subassembly 21 has a suction surface 211 and a front side 212 arranged adjacently. The front side 212 is located on a side of the suction subassembly 21 away from the connecting mechanism 10. The suction subassembly 21 is provided with a position-avoiding through hole 213 penetrating the suction subassembly 21 and communicating with the suction surface 211. The suction subassembly 21 is provided with an air extraction channel 214. The air extraction channel 214 comprises an adapter groove 2141, an air inlet channel 2142 and an air outlet channel 2143. The adapter groove 2141 is arranged on the front side 212 and has an opening arranged on the front side 212. The air inlet channel 2142 is arranged close to the position-avoiding through hole 213 and communicates with the adapter groove 2141. An end of the air inlet channel 2142 away from the adapter groove 2141 is arranged on the suction surface 211. The air outlet channel 2143 penetrates the suction subassembly 21 and communicates with an end of the adapter groove 2141 away from the air inlet channel 2142. The cover 22 is detachably arranged on the front side 212 and is used to seal the adapter groove 2141.

[0030] The air outlet channel 2143 is used to connect an external air extraction device (not shown in the figure) so that the gas passes through the air inlet channel 2142, the adapter groove 2141 and the air outlet channel 2143 in sequence. Thus, the air inlet channel 2142 generates negative pressure to suck the first workpiece 2000.

[0031] The suction subassembly 21 can have a plate or block structure, and the suction surface 211 can have a planar structure, which is conducive to stably sucking the first workpiece 2000. The front side 212 can have a planar structure, which facilitates the cover 22 to seal the adapter groove 2141.

[0032] The extension direction of the position-avoiding through hole 213 is perpendicular to the plane where the suction surface 211 is located. It can be understood that when the first workpiece 2000 is assembled on the second workpiece 3000 (see Figure 1 ), the welding position of the first workpiece 2000 and the second workpiece 3000 can be at the position where the suction head sucks the first workpiece 2000. By arranging the position-avoiding through hole 213, the position to be welded can be avoided, which facilitates the welding of the first workpiece 2000 and the second workpiece 3000. In the embodiment, the number of the position-avoiding through holes 213 can be two, three or the like. The specific number and position are arranged according to actual needs, which are not limited herein. In the embodiment, the position-avoiding through hole 213 has a U-shaped structure, and both ends of the U-shaped position-avoiding through hole 213 are arranged close to the front side 212.

[0033] The suction passage 214 in the suction accessory 21 is used for suction to generate negative pressure on the suction surface 211 to adsorb the first workpiece 2000. It can be understood that the position of the avoidance through hole 213 corresponds to the position to be welded of the first workpiece 2000, and thus there is a case that the distance between the avoidance through hole 213 and the front side surface 212 is small. In this working condition, the traditional punching method is difficult to avoid the avoidance through hole 213. In the embodiment, the adapter groove 2141 is opened on the front side surface 212 of the suction accessory 21, and the air inlet passage 2142 is arranged adjacent to the avoidance through hole 213, such as being arranged between the two ends of the U-shaped avoidance through hole 213. The air inlet passage 2142 can not only avoid the avoidance through hole 213, but also improve the stability of adsorbing the first workpiece 2000, and at the same time, the machining difficulty of the suction passage 214 is also reduced. In the embodiment, the suction passage 214 can be provided with multiple, such as two, three, etc., to improve the stability of adsorbing the first workpiece 2000.

[0034] The cover 22 can be release paper or the like, and the cover 22 is air-tight. When the cover 22 is arranged on the front side surface 212, the cover 22 seals the opening of the adapter groove 2141 on the front side surface 212, so as to form a complete gas passage of the air inlet passage 2142, the adapter groove 2141 and the air outlet passage 2143. In this way, when the external suction device performs suction, the gas can enter from the air inlet passage 2142 and be discharged from the air outlet passage 2143, so as to form negative pressure on the suction surface 211 to adsorb the first workpiece 2000. Since the position of the adapter groove 2141 opposite to the avoidance through hole 213 is shallow, the adapter groove 2141 is easy to be blocked. In the embodiment, the cover 22 can be made of transparent material, so that the operator can observe the inside of the adapter groove 2141, and the adapter groove 2141 can be processed in time when it is blocked.

[0035] The hand claw 100 provided by the embodiment of the present application can be connected with an external mobile device through the connecting mechanism 10, and then drive the adsorption mechanism 20 to move to take and place materials. The suction member 21 in the adsorption mechanism 20 is provided with a position-avoiding through hole 213, which can expose the position to be processed of the first workpiece 2000, thereby facilitating subsequent processing. The suction member 21 is also provided with an air extraction channel 214, which uses an external air extraction device to make the gas pass through the air inlet channel 2142, the adapter groove 2141 and the air outlet channel 2143 in sequence, so as to generate negative pressure in the air inlet channel 2142 to firmly adsorb the first workpiece 2000. The adapter groove 2141 is arranged on the front side 212 of the suction member 21, which can bypass the position-avoiding through hole 213, thereby connecting the air inlet channel 2142 and the air outlet channel 2143, and reducing the distance between the air inlet channel 2142 and the front side 212, thereby improving the stability of adsorbing the first workpiece 2000, and avoiding the suction member 21 from colliding with other structures when the first workpiece 2000 is installed, thereby enabling the hand claw 100 to perform assembly work in a space with small reserved gap, and improving production efficiency. The front side 212 of the suction member 21 is provided with a cover 22, which can cover the opening of the adapter groove 2141 on the front side 212, thereby sealing the adapter groove 2141.

[0036] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the suction member 21 also has two oppositely arranged connecting surfaces 215, which are connected with the adsorption surface 211 and the front side 212. The cover 22 includes a covering part 221 and two connecting parts 222. The covering part 221 abuts against the front side 212, and the two connecting parts 222 are arranged at both ends of the covering part 221 and abut against the two connecting surfaces 215, respectively. The adsorption mechanism 20 also includes two fixing assemblies 23 connected with the suction member 21. The two fixing assemblies 23 are arranged correspondingly with the two connecting surfaces 215, respectively. Each fixing assembly 23 is used to cooperate with the suction member 21 to clamp the corresponding connecting part 222, thereby fixing the cover 22.

[0037] The suction member 21 has two oppositely arranged connecting surfaces 215, which are connected with the adsorption surface 211 and the front side 212, thereby providing a stable support structure for the installation of the cover 22. The covering part 221 of the cover 22 abuts against the front side 212, and the two connecting parts 222 are arranged at both ends of the covering part 221 and abut against the two connecting surfaces 215, respectively, so that the cover 22 can be tightly attached to the suction member 21, and is not easy to loosen or shift during use, thereby ensuring the sealing effect of the adapter groove 2141.

[0038] The two fixing assemblies 23 are respectively arranged corresponding to the two connecting surfaces 215, each fixing assembly 23 clamps the corresponding connecting part 222 in cooperation with the suction accessory 21, and the fixing effect of the cover 22 is further enhanced. When the cover 22 needs to be maintained or replaced, the fixing assembly 23 is only loosened, and the cover 22 can be easily disassembled, so that the maintenance process is more convenient, and the maintenance cost and time are reduced. Meanwhile, the two fixing assemblies 23 are respectively arranged on the two connecting surfaces 215, the front side surface 212 is avoided, and the fixing assembly 23 does not affect the assembly of the suction accessory 21 to the first workpiece 2000.

[0039] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 each fixing assembly 23 comprises a fastener 231 and a connecting pin 232, the fastener 231 abuts against one side of the connecting part 222 away from the suction accessory 21, and the connecting pin 232 is inserted into the fastener 231 and connected with the suction accessory 21, so that the fastener 231 clamps and fixes the corresponding connecting part 222 in cooperation with the suction accessory 21, and the cover 22 is fixed. The fastener 231 can be a block or a plate structure, and the connecting pin 232 can be a pin column or a screw, and in order to further improve the positioning stability of the fixing assembly 23 to the cover 22, a plurality of connecting pins 232, such as two or three, can be arranged on each fastener 231. By arranging the fastener 231, the clamping stability of the connecting part 222 clamping the cover 22 can be improved, and damage to the connecting part 222 during installation of the connecting pin 232 can be avoided. Through cooperation of the fastener 231 and the connecting pin 232, the fastener 231 can firmly clamp the corresponding connecting part 222 in cooperation with the suction accessory 21, so as to ensure that the cover 22 is stably fixed on the suction accessory 21, and even if a larger negative pressure is applied during the suction process, the cover 22 will not easily loosen or fall off, ensuring the stability of the sealing performance and the suction effect of the suction mechanism 20.

[0040] In some embodiments, the thickness of the cover 22 ranges from 0.15 mm to 0.25 mm, and the depth of the adapter groove 2141 ranges from 0.4 mm to 1 mm. The thickness of the cover 22 can be 0.15 mm, 0.17 mm, 0.19 mm, 0.20 mm, 0.21 mm, 0.23 mm, 0.25 mm, etc. If the thickness of the cover 22 is less than 0.15 mm, the structural strength of the cover 22 is low, and the cover 22 is easily damaged during the adsorption process. If the thickness of the cover 22 is greater than 0.25 mm, the distance between the side of the cover 22 away from the suction member 21 and the first workpiece 2000 is large, which affects the assembly of the first workpiece 2000. When the thickness of the cover 22 ranges from 0.15 mm to 0.25 mm, the cover 22 can have sufficient strength to withstand the pressure difference during the pumping process, and the assembly of the first workpiece 2000 is not affected. The depth of the adapter groove 2141 can be 0.4 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.9 mm, 1.0 mm, etc. If the depth of the adapter groove 2141 is less than 0.4 mm, the cross-sectional area of the adapter groove 2141 is small after the cover 22 covers the front side 212, which can cause insufficient suction or deformation of the cover 22 to block the adapter groove 2141. If the depth of the adapter groove 2141 is greater than 1.0 mm, the adapter groove 2141 is close to or communicates with the avoidance through hole 213, which can cause insufficient structural strength or air leakage.

[0041] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 , the connecting mechanism 10 includes a connecting assembly 11 and a floating assembly 12. The connecting assembly 11 includes a connecting plate 111 and a sliding plate 112 connected to each other. The connecting plate 111 is used to connect with an external mobile device. The plane where the connecting plate 111 is located is parallel to the plane where the adsorption surface 211 is located. The plane where the sliding plate 112 is located is parallel to the plane where the front side 212 is located. The floating assembly 12 includes a floating plate 121 and a support plate 122 connected to each other. The floating plate 121 is slidingly connected to the sliding plate 112 in a direction perpendicular to the plane where the adsorption surface 211 is located. The support plate 122 extends in a direction perpendicular to the plane where the floating plate 121 is located. The end of the support plate 122 away from the connecting plate 111 is used to connect the suction member 21.

[0042] The connecting plate 111 and the sliding plate 112 are both plate-shaped structures to improve the stability of connection or support. The connecting plate 111 is arranged to facilitate the connection of the hand claw 100 with the external driving device. The sliding plate 112 is arranged to provide a stable basis for the installation and movement of the floating assembly 12. A sliding rail or the like structure can be arranged between the floating plate 121 and the sliding plate 112 to improve the stability of the connection between the floating plate 121 and the sliding plate 112 and the stability of the movement of the floating plate 121. The support plate 122 is arranged to connect one end of the suction accessory 21 away from the connecting plate 111, so as to facilitate the support plate 122 to drive the suction accessory 21 to take and place the first workpiece 2000.

[0043] It can be understood that when the external driving device drives the hand claw 100 to suck the first workpiece 2000, the suction accessory 21 needs to abut against the first workpiece 2000. By arranging the floating assembly 12, when the hand claw 100 contacts the workpiece, the support plate 122 and the floating plate 121 can slide along the sliding plate 112, thereby reducing the impact force and protecting the first workpiece 2000 from being damaged.

[0044] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the connecting mechanism 10 further comprises a reset assembly 13. The reset assembly 13 comprises a positioning column 131, a reset plate 132, and an elastic member 133. The positioning column 131 is connected to the connecting plate 111 and extends in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the connecting plate 111. The reset plate 132 is in sliding connection with the positioning column 131 and is connected to the floating plate 121. The elastic member 133 is sleeved on the positioning column 131 and abuts against the connecting plate 111 and the reset plate 132 at both ends, respectively. The elastic member 133 is used to push the reset plate 132 away from the connecting plate 111 to move, thereby driving the suction accessory 21 to reset. The positioning column 131 can be a columnar structure. The positioning column 131 can be connected to the side of the connecting plate 111 away from the external driving device. A linear bearing or the like structure can be arranged between the positioning column 131 and the reset plate 132 to improve the stability of the sliding connection between the reset plate 132 and the positioning column 131. The elastic member 133 can be a spring.

[0045] When the suction accessory 21 sucks the first workpiece 2000, the support plate 122 and the floating plate 121 can slide upward along the sliding plate 112, thereby driving the reset plate 132 to move towards the connecting plate 111. The reset plate 132 compresses the elastic member 133. When the suction accessory 21 releases the first workpiece 2000, the elastic member 133 pushes the reset plate 132 away from the connecting plate 111 to move. The reset plate 132 drives the floating plate 121 to slide along the sliding plate 112, thereby driving the suction accessory 21 to reset through the support plate 122.

[0046] In the present embodiment, referring to Figure 5The sliding plate 112 can be provided with a through hole 1121, and the end of the reset plate 132 connected with the floating plate 121 passes through the through hole 1121 and can move in the through hole 1121. In this way, the movement distance of the reset plate 132 can be limited by the hole wall of the through hole 1121.

[0047] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 , the gripper 100 further comprises an image acquisition mechanism 30 connected to the connecting mechanism 10, and the image acquisition mechanism 30 comprises a camera assembly 31 configured to acquire an image of the first workpiece 2000 to identify the position of the first workpiece 2000.

[0048] The camera assembly 31 can comprise a CCD (charge coupled device) camera or the like. Before the suction member 21 suctions the first workpiece 2000, the camera assembly 31 can first take a picture of the first workpiece 2000 to acquire an image of the first workpiece 2000, thereby facilitating the camera assembly 31 to accurately suction the first workpiece 2000. It can be understood that after the gripper 100 assembles the first workpiece 2000 to the second workpiece 3000, the camera assembly 31 can also take a picture of the assembled first workpiece 2000 to acquire an image of the assembled first workpiece 2000, thereby detecting whether the first workpiece 2000 is assembled in place. In some other embodiments, the camera assembly 31 can also take a picture of the to-be-assembled position of the second workpiece 3000 before assembly to acquire an accurate assembly position. In the present embodiment, the camera assembly 31 further comprises a fill light 311 configured to provide light to improve the definition of the image acquired by the camera assembly 31.

[0049] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the image acquisition mechanism 30 further comprises an adjusting assembly 32 comprising an adjusting plate 321 fixedly connected to the connecting mechanism 10 and an adjusting block 322 adjustably connected to the adjusting plate 321, and the camera assembly 31 is connected to the adjusting block 322, and the adjusting block 322 is configured to adjust the position of the camera assembly 31. By providing the adjusting assembly 32, the camera assembly 31 can be adjusted in position on the adjusting plate 321 through the adjusting block 322, so that the position and angle of the camera assembly 31 can be flexibly adjusted according to different working scenes and workpiece characteristics, so as to better acquire the image of the first workpiece 2000 and improve the accuracy and comprehensiveness of image acquisition.

Then, the external driving device drives the gripper 100 to move so that the suction surface 211 of the suction accessory 21 abuts against the first workpiece 2000. Then, the external suction device is started, and the gas is sequentially sucked out through the gas inlet channel 2142, the switching groove 2141 and the gas outlet channel 2143. At this time, the gas inlet channel 2142 generates negative pressure, the suction surface 211 is in contact with the first workpiece 2000, and the first workpiece 2000 is adsorbed by the negative pressure. When the first workpiece 2000 is placed, the external suction device stops suction.
