[0035] When the hand claw assembly 3 clamps the crank pin 51, the crank pin 51 is driven to deviate from the center axis of the large end 532 of the connecting rod 53, so that the crank pin 51 tightly presses the needle bearing 52, and the needle bearing 52 tightly presses the large end 532 of the connecting rod 53, so that the small end 531 of the connecting rod 53 and the large end 532 of the connecting rod 53 are clamped by the connecting rod assembly transition hand claw, and the needle bearing 52 is clamped by the crank pin 51 and the connecting rod 53, thereby ensuring that the connecting rod assembly 5 does not fall off when the connecting rod assembly transition hand claw grabs and carries the connecting rod assembly 5, and the cooperation of the positioning pin 21 and the hand claw assembly 3 ensures the feeding angle of the connecting rod assembly 5.

[0036] When the hand claw assembly 3 clamps the crank pin 51, the crank pin 51 is driven to deviate from the center axis of the large end 532 of the connecting rod 53, so that the crank pin 51 tightly presses the needle bearing 52, and the needle bearing 52 tightly presses the large end 532 of the connecting rod 53, so that the small end 531 of the connecting rod 53 and the large end 532 of the connecting rod 53 are clamped by the connecting rod assembly transition hand claw, and the needle bearing 52 is clamped by the crank pin 51 and the connecting rod 53, thereby ensuring that the connecting rod assembly 5 does not fall off when the connecting rod assembly transition hand claw grabs and carries the connecting rod assembly 5, and the cooperation of the positioning pin 21 and the hand claw assembly 3 ensures the feeding angle of the connecting rod assembly 5.

[0037] In an embodiment, the gripper assembly 3 comprises a three-fingered cylinder 31 and three clamping blocks 32, which are respectively arranged on the three fingers of the three-fingered cylinder 31. The three-fingered cylinder 31 drives the three clamping blocks 32 to move close to or away from each other, so as to clamp or release the crank pin 51 through the three clamping blocks 32, and the clamping of the crank pin 51 can be ensured to be stable.

[0038] In an embodiment, the clamping block 32 is in a U shape, one end of the U-shaped clamping block 32 is connected with the finger of the three-fingered cylinder 31, and the other end of the U-shaped clamping block 32 extends downward and is provided with an arc-shaped clamping block 33. The clamping block 32 clamps the crank pin 51 through the arc-shaped clamping block 33, and since the arc-shaped clamping block 33 is in a circular arc shape, it can be compatible with the grasping of crank pins 51 of multiple sizes.

[0039] The roller pin bearing 52 of the connecting rod assembly 5 is in line with the inner hole of the large end 532 of the connecting rod 53, and the height of the crank pin 51 is higher than that of the roller pin bearing 52 and the inner hole of the large end 532 of the connecting rod 53. Figure 7 In the positioning scheme of the connecting rod assembly shown in the figure, the highest points of the crank pin 51, the roller pin bearing 52 and the connecting rod 53 of the completed connecting rod assembly 5 are different in height. In order to realize the confirmation of the position of the roller pin bearing 52, in an embodiment, the positioning assembly 2 further comprises a support column 22 and a pressing strip 23. The top end of the support column 22 is arranged on the mounting plate 1, the bottom end of the support column 22 is connected with one end of the pressing strip 23, the other end of the pressing strip 23 is located below the gripper assembly 3, and two protrusions 24 for limiting the height of the roller pin bearing 52 are arranged at intervals. One of the two protrusions 24 is flush with one end of the pressing strip 23, and the pressing strip 23 and the two protrusions 24 enclose a space for accommodating the crank pin 51. When the connecting rod assembly of the utility model is gripped by the gripper assembly, the two protrusions 24 are respectively connected with the top end of the roller pin bearing 52, the height of the roller pin bearing 52 relative to the connecting rod 23 is limited, and the highest points of the crank pin 51, the roller pin bearing 52 and the connecting rod 53 of the completed connecting rod assembly 5 are different in height.

[0040] In an embodiment, the positioning assembly 2 further comprises a pin seat 25, the top end of the positioning pin 21 is detachably arranged on the pin seat 25, the top end of the support column 22 is detachably arranged on the pin seat 25, and the pin seat 25 is detachably arranged on the mounting plate 1. This arrangement facilitates the installation and disassembly of the positioning assembly 2. In an embodiment, the bottom end of the positioning pin 21 is provided with a spherical positioning block 26. The positioning pin 21 is inserted into the small end mounting hole 533 of the connecting rod 53 through the positioning block 26. Since the positioning block 26 is spherical, it can avoid damaging the small end 531 of the connecting rod 53 when inserted. The diameter of the positioning block 26 is arranged according to the size of the small end mounting hole 533 of the connecting rod 53.

[0041] Since the connecting rod assembly 5 has multiple models, the specifications of the connecting rod assembly 5 of each model are different, so that the connecting rod assembly transition gripper of the utility model can adapt to different specifications, in an embodiment, the number of the positioning pins 21 is multiple, the diameters of the positioning blocks 26 at the bottom ends of the multiple positioning pins 21 are different, and each positioning pin is selectively arranged on the pin seat; the number of the support columns is multiple, the lengths of the multiple support columns are different, and each support column is selectively arranged on the pin seat; the number of the pressing strips is multiple, the lengths of the multiple pressing strips are different or the interval distances of the two protrusions on the multiple pressing strips are different, and each pressing strip is selectively arranged on the support column; the number of the positioning assemblies is multiple, the installation positions of the positioning pins on the multiple pin seats are different, and each positioning assembly is selectively arranged on the mounting plate. Since the installation positions of the positioning pins 21 on the pin seats 25 are different, the distances between the central axes of the positioning pins 21 on the different pin seats 25 and the central axis of the gripper assembly 3 in the horizontal direction are different, so that in actual use, the appropriate pin seat 25 can be selected according to the length of the connecting rod in the connecting rod assembly 5, so that the distance between the central axis of the gripper assembly 3 and the central axis of the positioning pin 2 in the horizontal direction meets the requirements, then the positioning pin 21 with the appropriate diameter of the bottom spherical positioning block 26 is selected according to the diameter of the small end mounting hole 533 of the connecting rod 53, and finally the support column 22 with the appropriate length and the pressing strip 23 are selected according to the height of the large end 532 of the connecting rod 53 and the diameter of the crank pin 51, then the distance between the two protrusions 24 on the pressing strip 23 is selected to be able to be sleeved outside the crank pin 51 but not to touch the crank pin 51 and to press on the needle bearing 52, so as to limit the needle bearing 52, thereby completing the assembly of the positioning assembly 2. In subsequent use, the positioning assembly 2 is adjusted according to the above process, so that the connecting rod assembly transition gripper of the utility model can grasp connecting rod assemblies 5 of different specifications.

[0042] In an embodiment, the top end of the mounting plate 1 is provided with a flange 4. The flange 4 is used for detachable connection with the corresponding mechanical hand, so as to facilitate the installation and disassembly of the connecting rod assembly transition gripper of the utility model on the mechanical hand.

[0043] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the utility model in any form, so any simple modification, equivalent change and modification of the above embodiment according to the technical essence of the utility model, which does not deviate from the technical scheme of the utility model, still belongs to the scope of the technical scheme of the utility model.
