[0002] In industrial manufacturing, robots are being used more and more. However, in actual production processes, there are often situations where the initial assembly is not perfectly aligned or there are positional deviations during grinding. This can affect the accuracy of assembly or grinding, the performance and lifespan of the workpiece, etc. Readjusting the robot itself presents many problems such as design difficulties and slow response.

[0003] Based on the above analysis, the urgent technical problems that need to be solved in the existing technology are:

[0004] There is an urgent need to design a rapid adjustment device to quickly adjust the robot's pose. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a force control-based rapid robot pose adjustment device.

[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows: a force-controlled robot posture rapid adjustment device, characterized in that it comprises a force sensor, a transfer platform, a linear transmission mechanism, and a rotating mechanism. The transfer platform consists of four flat surfaces, allowing for installation at multiple angles with the robot. The linear transmission mechanism comprises a drive motor, a lead screw, a slide block, a bearing frame, and a movable support plate. The drive motor is fixedly mounted on the bearing frame, which is also fixedly mounted on the slide block. The lead screw is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor, and the movable support plate is threadedly connected to the lead screw and slidably connected to the slide block. The rotation of the drive motor drives the lead screw to rotate, enabling the translation of the movable support plate. The rotating mechanism comprises a rotary motor, a gear set, and a rotating platform. The rotary motor is bolted to the rotating platform, and the rotation of the rotary motor drives the gear set to rotate, thus achieving the rotation of the rotating platform. The force sensor is bolted to the rotating platform, and the rotation of the rotating platform directly drives the force sensor to rotate.

[0007] Furthermore, the adapter platform is bolted to the slide block and rotatably connected to the lead screw.

[0008] Furthermore, the rotary motor is fixedly mounted on the movable support plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the gear set is located inside the rotating platform.

[0010] Furthermore, the force-controlled robot pose rapid adjustment device can quickly adjust the posture of the robot tool end effector by controlling the rotary motor and drive motor according to the force sensing information, while keeping the position of the robot tool end effector unchanged or rapidly adjusting it within a small range.

[0011] Furthermore, the force-controlled robot pose rapid adjustment device can be used in conjunction with the rotation of the robot end effector to achieve pose adjustment in three-dimensional space. The robot pose rapid adjustment device achieves rapid adjustment of position and posture within a plane, which is achieved through the real-time controller of the robot pose rapid adjustment device; the rotation of the robot end effector achieves switching between multiple planes, thereby achieving control effect in three-dimensional space, and its rotation is achieved through the controller of the robot body.

[0012] Furthermore, the force-controlled robot pose rapid adjustment device operates as follows:

[0013] Based on the force sensing information, the drive motor and rotary motor are activated. The drive motor drives the lead screw to rotate, which in turn causes the movable support plate to move linearly. The rotary mechanism mounted on the movable support plate then translates accordingly, thereby enabling the robot end effector to translate. The rotary motor drives the gears to rotate, and through the gear transmission between the gear sets, the rotary platform is rotated, which in turn drives the force sensor mounted on the rotary platform to rotate, thus enabling the robot end effector to rotate. Through the translation and rotation of the robot end effector, the position and pose of the robot in a plane can be quickly adjusted. Attached Figure Description

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

It has a compact structure and is convenient for multi-angle installation on a robot.

[0019] The adapter platform (1) consists of four flat surfaces, allowing for installation with the robot at multiple angles. The linear transmission mechanism consists of a drive motor (2), a lead screw (3), a slide block (4), a bearing frame (10), and a movable support plate (5). The drive motor (2) is fixedly mounted on the bearing frame (10), and the bearing frame (10) is fixedly mounted on the slide block (4). The lead screw (3) is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor (2), and the movable support plate (5) is threadedly connected to the lead screw (3) and slidably connected to the slide block (4). The rotation of the drive motor (2) drives the lead screw (3) to rotate, which enables the translation of the movable support plate (5); the rotating mechanism consists of a rotary motor (6), a gear set (7) and a rotating platform (8). The rotary motor (6) is bolted to the rotating platform (8). The rotation of the rotary motor (6) drives the gear set (7) to rotate, thus realizing the rotation of the rotating platform (8); the force sensor (9) is bolted to the rotating platform (8). The rotation of the rotating platform (8) can directly drive the force sensor (9) to rotate.

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, the transfer platform (1) is bolted to the slide (4) and rotatably connected to the lead screw (3). The rotary motor (6) is fixedly mounted on the movable support plate (5). The gear set (7) is inside the rotary platform (8).

[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, the force-controlled robot pose rapid adjustment device (11) is installed on the six-axis robot (12). Based on the force perception information, the drive motor (2) and the rotary motor (6) are controlled by the real-time controller (13) of the robot pose rapid adjustment device to quickly adjust the posture of the robot tool end, namely the grinding head (16), while keeping the position of the robot tool end unchanged or adjusting it rapidly within a small range.

[0022] like Figure 2As shown, the robot can adjust its position and orientation in three-dimensional space by rotating the robot end effector. The robot pose adjustment device (11) enables rapid adjustment of position and orientation in a plane, which is achieved by the real-time controller (13) of the robot pose adjustment device; the robot end effector can switch between multiple planes by rotating the robot end effector, thereby achieving the control effect in three-dimensional space, and its rotation is achieved by the controller (14) of the robot body.

[0023] The working process of this utility model embodiment is as follows: Based on the force sensing information obtained by the force sensor (9), the drive motor (2) and the rotary motor (6) are controlled by the real-time controller (13) of the robot posture rapid adjustment device. The drive motor (2) drives the lead screw (3) to rotate, thereby causing the moving support plate (5) to move linearly. The rotating mechanism installed on the moving support plate (5) then translates accordingly, thereby enabling the robot to translate. The rotary motor (6) drives the gear to rotate. Through the gear transmission between the gear sets (7), the rotation of the rotating platform (8) is realized, which drives the force sensor (9) installed on the rotating platform to rotate, thereby realizing the rotation of the robot end, i.e., the grinding head (16). Through the translation and rotation of the robot end, the position and posture of the robot in a plane are rapidly adjusted, and the grinding head (16) is used to accurately grind the target.
