Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of industrial robotic arms, and more particularly to a compact, foldable industrial robotic arm. Background Technology

[0002] A robotic arm is an automated mechanical device that mimics the movements of a human arm and can perform tasks such as grasping and moving according to preset programs or instructions. It is usually composed of multiple joints and links and can move flexibly in different spatial dimensions. It is widely used in industrial production, logistics and warehousing, medical and scientific research fields.

[0003] Existing robotic arms are typically welded and fixed to one side of the production line for easy operation. However, when producing different products, the robotic arm may be needed in different locations. Therefore, it is necessary to disassemble the robotic arm from one side of the production line and move it to the required location for installation, which is very troublesome. In addition, the robotic arm's arm is usually designed as a single piece, so when it is necessary to lengthen or shorten the robotic arm, it is generally necessary to disassemble the robotic arm arm and replace it with a suitable arm, which is also very troublesome.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a compact, foldable industrial robotic arm to address the problems mentioned in the background section. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a compact, foldable industrial robotic arm. The position of the mechanical structure can be moved by a sliding block, and the sliding rod can slide by sliding around the outer surface of the sliding rod, allowing the position of the first support rod and the sliding rod to be adjusted.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a compact foldable industrial robotic arm, comprising a base, two mounting plates fixedly disposed on one side of the base, a sliding block slidably disposed on the upper surface of the base, an electric rotary table fixedly disposed on the upper surface of the sliding block, a mechanical mechanism fixedly disposed on the upper surface of the electric rotary table, the mechanical mechanism comprising a fixed box, and a first servo motor fixedly disposed on the rear end face of the fixed box;

[0007] A first support rod is fixedly mounted on the output end of the first servo motor. A sliding column is fixedly mounted on the upper end face of the first support rod. A sliding surround is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the sliding column. A sliding rod is slidably mounted on the upper end face of the first support rod. A second servo motor is fixedly mounted on the upper part of the front end face of the sliding rod. A second support rod is fixedly mounted on the output end of the second servo motor. An electric actuator is threadedly fixed on the inner wall of one side of the second support rod.

[0008] Furthermore, both mounting plates are threadedly fixed with drive motor housings at their front and rear ends, and the output end of the drive motor housing is fixedly provided with a threaded rod.

[0009] Furthermore, the sliding surround is threaded with fixing screws at both the front and rear ends, and the sliding surround is fixedly installed on the inner walls of both sides of the sliding rod.

[0010] Furthermore, a threaded plate is fixedly provided at the output end of the electric actuator, and a sliding clamp is threadedly fixed on one side of the threaded plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the sliding block is threaded onto the outer surface of the threaded rod.

[0012] Furthermore, a fixing clamp is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the other side of the second support rod.

[0013] Furthermore, a battery box is snapped onto the front end face of the second support rod.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. The present invention proposes a compact foldable industrial robotic arm. In use, the base is fixed to the drive motor box by the mounting plate. When the drive motor box is started, the threaded rod can rotate. The threaded rod and the sliding block are threaded together, so that when the threaded rod rotates, the sliding block can move on the base. The upper end of the sliding block is fixed to the electric turntable. The upper end of the electric turntable is provided with a mechanical structure. The position of the mechanical structure can be moved by the sliding block, and the position of the mechanical mechanism can be adjusted by the electric turntable.

[0016] 2. This utility model proposes a compact foldable industrial robotic arm. The main structure of the robotic arm includes a fixed box, inside which a first servo motor is fixed. A first support rod is fixed to the output end of the first servo motor, and a sliding column is fixed to the upper end of the first support rod. The sliding column can slide around the outer surface of the first support rod, allowing adjustment of the positions of the first support rod and the sliding column, thus increasing or decreasing the length of the robotic arm. A second support rod is connected to the sliding rod via a second servo motor. An electric actuator is threaded onto the inner wall of one side of the second support rod. The electric actuator can drive a gripping structure to grip objects. Since the electric actuator is directly fixed to the inner wall of one side of the second support rod with screws, it can be easily replaced if damaged. Attached Figure Description
