Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transportation and transfer equipment technology, and in particular to an electric cylinder gripper mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] In the stacking stage of a block forming machine, the gripper mechanism plays a crucial role. Traditional stacking gripper mechanisms mostly use pneumatic or hydraulic drives. Although pneumatic drives have a fast response speed, their output force is relatively small, making it difficult to stably grip some heavy blocks. Furthermore, when the air source pressure is unstable, the gripping force fluctuates significantly, which can easily cause blocks to fall, posing a safety hazard. Hydraulic drives can provide greater output force, but their system structure is complex and requires a dedicated hydraulic station, resulting in higher costs. Hydraulic oil leaks can also cause environmental pollution. In addition, when gripping blocks of different sizes, traditional grippers often require manual adjustment of the gripper spacing, which is cumbersome, inefficient, and difficult to meet the high-efficiency and automated requirements of modern block production.

The cylinder body end or piston rod end of the drive electric cylinder is connected to the corresponding adjusting rod. The position of the adjusting rod is adjustable and mounted on the slider.
[0005] Preferably, the slider has multiple sets of adjustment holes along its axial direction, and the adjustment rod is connected to one set of adjustment holes by locking bolts.
[0006] Preferably, a synchronization mechanism is provided between each pair of grippers. The synchronization mechanism includes a rack and a synchronization gear rotatably mounted on the mounting frame.
