The variable-pitch mechanism developed to address this limitation enables robotic arms to achieve greater flexibility and adaptability, allowing them to learn how to handle new tasks and objects of different shapes and materials through data-driven approaches. Therefore, a variable-pitch robotic gripper for a perforated bullet production line is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The five transverse sliders are movably connected to a scissor linkage on one side. A servo motor is fixed to one end of the slide rail mounting plate. A drive wheel is fixed to the output end of the servo motor. A driven wheel is provided on one side of the drive wheel. The driven wheel is rotatably connected to the slide rail mounting plate. The driven wheel and the drive wheel are connected by a synchronous belt drive. An upper fixing plate is fixed to one surface of the synchronous belt. A lower fixing plate is fixed to one surface of the sliding block near the servo motor.
[0007] The clamping assembly includes a gripper cylinder mounting plate. A gripper cylinder is fixed to one end face of the gripper cylinder mounting plate. The gripper cylinder piston rod extends through the gripper cylinder mounting plate into the interior. A radial linear slide rail is fixed to the lower center of the gripper cylinder mounting plate. Radial sliders are slidably connected to both sides of the radial linear slide rail. A slider connecting plate is fixedly connected to the lower surface of each of the two radial sliders. The two slider connecting plates are centrally symmetrically arranged. A rack is fixed to the upper surface of the slider connecting plate. A gripper is fixed to the lower surface of the slider connecting plate. A workpiece is clamped between the two grippers. A fixing plate is fixed to one end face of the slider connecting plate and the rack. The fixing plate near the gripper cylinder is fixedly connected to the gripper cylinder piston rod. A rotating shaft is fixed to the center of the upper surface of the radial linear slide rail. A gear is rotatably connected to the upper end of the rotating shaft. The gear is located between the two racks.
[0008] Each of the two slide rail mounting plates has a lifting connecting plate fixed on its two opposite surfaces. The piston rods of the two lifting cylinders correspond to the two lifting connecting plates respectively, and each lifting cylinder piston rod is fixed to one lifting connecting plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the gripper cylinder mounting plate has a "U" shaped plate structure, and the shape and size of the radial linear slide rail are adapted to the radial slider, with the radial linear slide rail and the radial slider sliding together.
[0010] Furthermore, the shape and size of the vertical linear slide rail are adapted to the vertical slider, and the vertical linear slide rail and the vertical slider slide in a sliding fit.

[0016] In this invention, the lifting cylinder drives the lifting connecting plate, the slide rail mounting plate, and the components fixed on the slide rail mounting plate to move up and down along the vertical linear slide rail via the vertical slider, thereby satisfying the gripping of workpieces of different heights.
[0017] In this invention, a servo motor drives a synchronous belt, which in turn moves the sliding block closest to the servo motor and the lateral slider via a fixed plate and a lower fixed plate. This forces the scissor linkage to move towards and away from both sides simultaneously, with the middle clamping component as a reference. This achieves variable pitch adjustment of the clamping component, meets the clamping requirements of different spacings, and increases its adaptability.
[0018] In this utility model, the piston rod of the gripper cylinder drives the fixed plate to move, thereby causing the slider connecting plate and the rack to move along the radial linear slide rail through the transverse slider. Through gear transmission, the rack on the other side and the slider connecting plate move towards each other, thereby realizing the clamping and releasing of the two grippers, satisfying the clamping of workpieces of different sizes and increasing its adaptability.
[0019] The mechanical gripper of this invention can be applied to tooling with different spacing, or it can grip multiple workpieces at the same time, then change the workpiece spacing, and finally place them in stages to complete the directional displacement of objects at various distances. It can also cyclically complete the displacement of objects and quickly adjust them to the required position. This not only saves working time and improves work efficiency, but also makes lateral displacement more convenient and faster, thus meeting the needs of modern industry for the gripping function of robotic arms.
[0020] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description
