AI Technical Summary
Traditional heavy-duty robotic arms are prone to slipping when gripping heavy or smooth-surfaced packaging boxes, leading to product damage and production accidents. Furthermore, the handling tasks that require multiple actions to be coordinated are inefficient and have poor adaptability.
A heavy-duty robotic arm integrating a gripping component and a supporting component was designed. The gripping component clamps the two sides of the packaging box and automatically extends a tray from the bottom for support. The automatic unfolding and folding of the tray is achieved by the meshing transmission of sector teeth, gears and racks. The self-locking property of the worm gear ensures that the tray does not retract accidentally.
It enables stable and reliable handling of the packaging box, improves space utilization and safety, prevents the pallet from accidentally retracting when the equipment is powered off, and enhances the flexibility and safety of the equipment.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0029] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model embodiment provides a heavy-duty robotic arm for packaging boxes, comprising:
[0031] Joint structure 1;
[0032] Mounting bracket 2 includes mounting base 21, which is rotatably mounted at the end of joint structure 1, and a connecting beam 22 is fixedly mounted on its top end;
[0033] The clamping component 3 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting beam 22 and is used to clamp and transport the packaging box 5 from both sides.
[0034] Support component 4, mounted on mounting bracket 2, is used to support the bottom of package 5, and includes:
[0035] Drive motor 241 is fixedly mounted on connecting beam 22;
[0036] The screw 42 is rotatably mounted in the mounting base 21, and its top end is connected to the power output end of the drive motor 41.
[0037] The movable plate 43 is threadedly mounted on the screw 42. One end of the movable plate 43 is hinged and rotatably mounted with a support plate 44. The support plate 44 and the movable plate 43 can be adjusted in an angle range of 90-180°. At both ends of the hinge of the support plate 44, sector teeth 441 are fixedly provided with the hinge axis as the central axis. The movable plate 43 is rotatably mounted with a gear 45 that meshes with the sector teeth 441. The mounting base 21 is fixedly mounted with a rack 46 that meshes with the gear 45.
[0038] In practical application, the joint structure 1 moves to drive the clamping assembly 3 to clamp the packaging box 5. Then, the second drive motor 41 is started, which drives the screw 42 to rotate. Under the threaded engagement between the screw 42 and the movable plate 43, the movable plate 43 is driven to rise along the axis of the screw 42. The meshing of the rack 46 and the gear 45 drives the gear 45 to rotate. The rotating gear 45, under the action of the meshing sector teeth 441, drives the support plate 44 to unfold. As the movable plate 43 rises, it supports the bottom of the packaging box 5. After clamping, the second drive motor 41 is reversed, and the movable plate 43 descends under the action of the screw 42. Then, through the meshing relationship between the rack 46, the gear 45 and the sector teeth 441, the support plate 44 is folded and stored.
[0039] This embodiment integrates the clamping component 3 and the supporting component 4 together, so that while clamping the two sides of the packaging box 5, the clamping component 3 can automatically extend the tray 44 from the bottom for support, achieving double protection and making the handling more stable and reliable. Through the meshing transmission relationship of the sector teeth 441, gear 45 and rack 46, the linear motion of the movable plate 43 is converted into the rotational motion of the tray 44, thereby realizing the automatic unfolding and folding of the tray 44. The space utilization rate is high. The threaded engagement between the screw 42 and the movable plate 43 has good self-locking properties. Even if the equipment is powered off, the tray 44 will not be accidentally retracted under the weight of the object, and the safety is extremely high.
[0040] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the clamping component 3 includes:
[0041] An adjusting seat 31 has a transmission box 32 fixedly installed at one end, and a drive motor 33 is fixedly installed on the side of the transmission box 32.
[0042] The adjusting rod 35 is rotatably installed in the adjusting seat 31. One end of the rod passes through the transmission box 32 and extends into the transmission box 32. It is connected to the drive motor 33 via the transmission unit 34. Two threads with opposite directions are fixedly opened on its side, and two clamping plates 36 are symmetrically installed through threaded engagement.
[0043] In practical application, the drive motor 33 drives the adjusting rod 35 to rotate under the action of the transmission unit 34. Then, the two oppositely oriented threads on its side drive the clamping plate 36, which is threaded with the adjusting rod 35, to move in opposite directions, thereby achieving the clamping and loosening of the packaging box 5.
[0044] Please see Figure 3 In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the transmission unit 34 includes a worm 341 and a worm wheel 342. The worm 341 is rotatably mounted in the transmission box 32, and one end of it is connected to the power output end of the drive motor 33. The worm wheel 342 is fixedly mounted on the adjusting rod 35 and meshes with the worm 341.
[0045] In practical application, this embodiment uses a worm gear 341 and a worm wheel 342 to form a worm gear transmission. Driven by the drive motor 33, the rotating worm gear 341 drives the worm wheel 342 to rotate, which in turn drives the adjusting rod 35 to rotate. Based on the self-locking property of the worm gear structure itself, even if the equipment is powered off, the clamping plate 36 can remain in the same position and, together with the set support plate 44, limit the position of the packaging box 5 to prevent it from falling, further improving safety.
[0046] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In another preferred embodiment of this utility model, a protective pad 37 is fixedly installed on the side of the clamping plate 36 adjacent to the packaging box 5, and the protective pad 37 is made of elastic material.
[0047] In practical applications, the protective pad 37, based on its elastic material, increases the friction between the clamping plate 36 and the side of the packaging box 5 during compression, and also plays a certain role in buffering and protection, effectively preventing damage to the surface of the packaging box 5.
[0048] Please see Figure 3 As another preferred embodiment of the present invention, two locking blocks 361 are symmetrically arranged on the clamping plate 36, and two guide grooves 311 adapted to the locking blocks 361 are fixedly opened on the inner side of the adjusting seat 31 at the position corresponding to the locking blocks 361.
[0049] In practical applications, this embodiment uses the locking block 361 in conjunction with the guide groove 311 to limit the movement of the clamping plate 36, improve the stability of the movement of the clamping plate 36, and thus ensure the stability of the clamping plate 36 when clamping, avoiding the clamping plate 36 shaking and affecting the clamping accuracy.
[0050] Please see Figure 4 In another preferred embodiment of this utility model, the movable plate 43 is provided with symmetrical slots 431 on both sides, and two guide strips 211 adapted to the slots 431 are fixedly provided on the inner side of the mounting base 21 at the position corresponding to the slots 431.
[0051] In practical applications, this embodiment uses the slot 431 and guide bar 211 to limit the movement of the movable plate 43, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the movable plate 43, and then uses the support plate 44 and clamping plate 36 to achieve stable clamping.
