[0032] The specific working principle is as follows: when clamping a workpiece, the finger cylinder 1 drives the base claw 2 to expand outward through the pawl 11, and the base claw 2 drives the sub-claw 3 to move synchronously outward. When the three groups of sub-claws 3 are sleeved on the workpiece, the pushing plate 45 contacts the end of the workpiece and moves backward, and the spring 44 is compressed and contracted. Then the finger cylinder 1 drives the pawl 11 to move toward the center, the pawl 11 drives the base claw 2 to move synchronously, and the base claw 2 drives the sub-claw 3 to move synchronously. When the fingers 31 on the three groups of sub-claws 3 clamp the workpiece, the workpiece is clamped. The manipulator moves to the machine tool through the movement of the finger cylinder 1, and when the end of the workpiece enters the machine tool clamp and abuts against the center of the machine tool clamp, the machine tool clamp gradually clamps the workpiece. At the same time, the finger cylinder 1 drives the pawl 11 to move outward, the pawl 11 drives the base claw 2 to move synchronously, and the base claw 2 drives the sub-claw 3 to move, so that the fingers 31 on the sub-claw 3 release the workpiece. At the same time, due to the tension of the spring 44 of the pushing plate 45, the pushing plate 45 abuts against the end of the workpiece, and the spring superimposed force can offset the downward gravity of the workpiece after the fingers 31 are released, so as to prevent the workpiece from moving. Finally, the machine tool clamp clamps the workpiece, effectively ensuring the clamping position of the workpiece.

[0033] The three-side pushing mechanical hand claw can realize quick clamping of preset parts, i.e. workpieces to be processed, through the base claw 2 and the sub claw 3; the base claw 2 is a pitch structure, the sub claw 3 is adjusted in position on the base claw 2, can be adjusted for workpieces with different diameters, and has wide compatibility; the floating pushing mechanism 4 can make the hand claw feed to the machine tool, when feeding, the floating pushing mechanism 4 can resist the workpiece after the sub claw 3 is loosened, prevents the workpiece from being displaced downward due to gravity, ensures that the machine tool clamp can effectively clamp the workpiece, effectively ensures the clamping position of the workpiece, does not appear the situation of partial clamping, also does not appear the situation of the workpiece flying out in the processing process, and ensures the safety of processing.

[0034] It should be emphasized that: the above is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, and is not used to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application can have various changes and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
