[0028] Embodiment 2
[0029] With reference to Figures 1-2 For the second embodiment of the utility model, different from the previous embodiment, the embodiment provides a mechanical arm configuration control system, solves the problem of how to limit the movement range of the mechanical arm, and comprises a driving module 200 comprising a driving motor, a frequency converter and a contactor KM3 connected in sequence with the mechanical arm 300, the frequency converter and the contactor KM3 are electrically connected with the control module 100. The frequency converter is used for controlling the movement speed and state of the driving motor; the contactor is an electric appliance for controlling the frequent on-off of the internal contact by using electromagnetic principle, and is mainly used for frequently turning on and off AC and DC circuits. When the control module issues an instruction, the coil of the contactor will be electrified, a magnetic field is generated, the iron core is attracted, and then the action of the contact system is driven, the circuit is closed or opened, and the purpose of controlling the movement range of the mechanical arm 300 is achieved. When it is needed to move the mechanical arm 300 to a specified position for work, the control module 100 controls the contactor KM3 to be closed, the starting of the driving motor is realized, at this time the frequency converter controls the movement of the driving motor, after moving to the specified position, the control module 100 controls the contactor KM3 to be opened, the driving motor stops moving, after the mechanical arm completes the clamping work, the control module 100 controls the contactor KM3 to be closed again, the driving motor is restarted, the frequency converter controls the movement direction of the driving motor, so that the mechanical arm 300 moves to the specified position with the goods.
[0030] Specifically, the contactor KM3 is connected with the magnetic switch QF5 and the three-phase power supply 400, and the magnetic switch is electrically connected with the control module 100. The magnetic switch QF5 is used for disconnecting the power supply during maintenance, so that there is a clear disconnection point between the circuit under maintenance and the three-phase power supply 400, and the safety of the maintenance personnel is ensured. The contactor KM3 and the magnetic switch QF5 can monitor the limit of the mechanical arm, and can also monitor the running state (such as temperature and load) of the mechanical arm in real time, and provide feedback signals to the central control system, so as to realize more intelligent control and maintenance.
[0031] Further, the three-phase power supply 400 is connected to the entire system through the isolation transformer 401 to supply power to the entire system. The isolation transformer 401 is connected with the contactor KM1 between the three-phase power supply 400, and is connected with the contactor KM2 and the magnetic switch QF3 between the isolation transformer 401 and the entire system. The contactor KM1, the contactor KM2, and the magnetic switch QF3 are electrically connected with the control module 100. The magnetic switch YS-1 is connected between the contactor KM1 and the magnetic switch QF2, and is electrically connected with the control module 100. The three-phase power supply 400 is used to supply power to the entire system, and supply power to the entire device through the isolation transformer 401, which is used to isolate the main power supply from the control system circuit and provide a safe working voltage (for example, 24V DC). This can protect the control system from power fluctuations or short circuits.
[0032] The three-phase power supply 400 is further connected with the gate switch S1, the maintenance lamp, the maintenance socket, and the contactor KM1 through the magnetic switch QF2, and the magnetic switch QF2 is electrically connected with the control module 100. When the control cabinet door is opened, the gate switch S1 will be cut off. The control module 100 detects that the gate switch S1 is disconnected, controls the magnetic switch QF5 to be disconnected, and disconnects the power supply of the mechanical arm 300, to ensure the safety of the operator during maintenance. The maintenance socket is usually installed outside the control cabinet, so that the maintenance personnel can directly access the power supply without opening the control cabinet door, and can maintain and check the equipment. This can avoid accidental electric shock during maintenance and improve the safety of maintenance work.
[0033] Further, the three-phase power supply 400 is connected with the contactor KM7 through the magnetic switch QF4 and the magnetic switch YS-4, and the magnetic switch QF4, the magnetic switch YS-4, and the contactor KM7 are electrically connected with the control module 100. When the three-phase power supply is connected and the power is normal, the contactor KM7 is closed, and the indicator light is on, indicating that the power supply has been connected. If the power supply is disconnected or fails, the contactor KM7 is disconnected, and the indicator light is off, reminding the operator to check the power supply. The control module 100 is also connected with the power supply indicator light, and the power supply indicator light and the contactor KM7 are connected in series.
[0034] Preferably, the control module 100 is also electrically connected with the touch screen 500. The touch screen 500 is the interactive interface between the operator and the control system of the robot arm 300, providing operation, monitoring and troubleshooting functions. The operator selects the operation mode of the robot arm 300 (manual or automatic) through the touch screen 500, inputs operation commands, adjusts parameters (such as speed, position), etc. The touch screen 500 displays the state information of the robot arm in real time, including position, speed, temperature, etc., as well as indicator light status and alarm information. The touch screen 500 is connected with the control module 100 through a communication interface (such as Ethernet, serial port), and the input of the operator is transmitted to the control module 100, and the control module 100 executes corresponding operations according to the instructions.
[0035] Operation process: In use, the control module 100 sends corresponding instructions to the frequency converter, when the control module 100 controls the contactor KM3 to close, the circuit is turned on, the motor is started, the frequency converter controls the speed and running state of the motor, the motor drives the robot arm to move to the specified position to pick up the goods, after reaching the specified position, the motor stops, and after picking up, the goods are transported to the specified position. The control module 100 controls the moving range of the robot arm by controlling the closing or opening of the contactor KM3. The three-phase power supply in the robot arm control system provides power for the frequency converter and motor and other devices through the KM7 contactor. The KM7 power supply indicator light displays the power state to ensure safe operation of the system. The frequency converter adjusts the motor speed to control the precise movement of the robot arm. The manual / automatic switch is used to switch the operation mode, and the control module 100 realizes the signal interaction and control between the system and external devices. The touch screen 500 provides a friendly operation interface, through which the operator can control and monitor the working state of the robot arm. The whole process realizes the automatic, efficient and safe operation of the robot arm, which is suitable for complex industrial environments such as paint spraying and baking processes.
[0036] Unlike the static setting of traditional limit switches, the utility model adopts machine learning algorithms, especially regression analysis, classification algorithms or reinforcement learning in supervised learning, to intelligently adjust the position of the limit switch. This intelligent adjustment can dynamically adjust according to the real-time state and running path of the equipment, improving the adaptability and accuracy of the system. Through training data sets, the system can predict the optimal running path of the robot arm or equipment, and automatically adjust the limit according to real-time feedback to ensure safe and efficient operation of the equipment under various working conditions.
[0037] In summary, by setting the contactor and frequency converter, the motion state of the robot arm can be detected, and the moving range of the robot arm can be limited to realize the picking and transporting of goods by the robot arm.
[0038] Example 3

[0040] Specifically, the contactor KM3 is further electrically connected with the 220V indicating lamp. The control module 100 controls the 220V indicating lamp to light up or turn off by opening and closing the contactor KM3.
[0041] The utility model further provides a baking finish indicating lamp, a paint spraying indicating lamp, an alarm lamp and an alarm, which are connected with the control module 100 through contactors and switches and are used for displaying different working states of the mechanical arm. An operator selects a paint spraying mode or a baking finish mode through a control panel or a touch screen. The mechanical arm starts to operate after receiving the control signal. The mechanical arm completes the paint spraying or baking finish task through a series of servo motors and actuators, and the system monitors parameters such as the position, speed and temperature of the mechanical arm in real time. The working state indicating lamp displays the current working state, for example, displays a state of 'paint spraying in progress' during the paint spraying process. If the operator opens the control cabinet door or presses an emergency stop button, the door control switch cuts off the power supply of the mechanical arm and stops all operations.
[0042] The switches and the indicating lamps in the maintenance part are used for indicating whether the system is currently in a maintenance mode, and some circuits can be manually operated for checking or replacing parts during maintenance.
[0043] If the mechanical arm appears abnormal (for example, the temperature exceeds the standard or the position of the mechanical arm deviates) during operation, the control system triggers an alarm signal. The alarm indicating lamp lights up, and the system may automatically stop the operation of the mechanical arm and sends an alarm sound or information prompt to the operator.
[0044] After completing the paint spraying or baking finish task, the operator can turn off the mechanical arm through the control panel or the touch screen. The control system gradually turns off each system according to a predetermined program, and ensures that the mechanical arm is safely stopped. After the system is stopped, the indicating lamps are turned off, and it is displayed that the system has entered a standby state.
[0045] In summary, different indicating lamps are arranged to display the running state of the mechanical arm 300.
