[0040] The utility model provides a kind of shell 100 of grab machine, the shell 100 of grab machine is used to protect the internal parts of grab machine.

[0041] In the embodiment of the utility model, please refer to Figures 1 to 8 The shell 100 of the object grabbing machine comprises a top cover 110, a mounting bracket 120 and a locking structure 130, wherein the mounting bracket 120 is detachably connected to the bottom of the top cover 110 along the longitudinal direction; the locking structure 130 comprises a control part 131 and a locking part 132 which are connected to each other, the control part 131 is exposed to the top cover 110, and the locking part 132 is located on the inner side of the top cover 110; the locking structure 130 is slidingly connected to one of the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120, and the other one of the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120 is provided with a matching part 121 matched with the locking part 132; the locking structure 130 has a locking position and an unlocking position, when the locking structure 130 is located at the locking position, the locking part 132 is matched with the matching part 121 to lock the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120; when the locking structure 130 is located at the unlocking position, the locking part 132 is separated from the matching part 121 to unlock the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120.

[0042] In the embodiment, the top cover 110 corresponds to the cover body of the object grabbing machine and plays a role of protecting internal parts and decoration, and the material thereof is not limited, the cross section thereof can be square, circular, track-shaped or other shapes, and can be set according to the requirement, which is not limited here. It can be understood that the top cover 110 is provided with a hole for exposing the control part 131, so as to enable the user to operate the locking structure 130.

[0043] The mounting bracket 120 is located in the top cover 110 and is used as a support structure for mounting the internal driving mechanism of the object grabbing machine, and can adopt metal or high-strength plastic material to ensure sufficient strength and stability. The matching part 121 can be arranged on the top cover 110 or the mounting bracket 120, and in the embodiment, the matching part 121 is arranged on the mounting bracket 120 and is used to realize the locking or unlocking of the top cover 110. The matching part 121 can be a clamping groove, a hole or an abutting block 122, which is matched with the shape of the locking part 132.

[0044] The locking structure 130 is a structure for detachable connection of the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120, which can be a latch structure or a hook structure, etc. The locking structure 130 can be arranged on the top cover 110 or the mounting bracket 120. Since the mounting bracket 120 of the embodiment is located in the top cover 110, the locking structure 130 is usually arranged on the top cover 110 for the purpose of simple structure, and the cooperation part 121 is arranged on the mounting bracket 120. The locking structure 130 comprises a manipulation part 131 and a locking part 132. The manipulation part 131 is exposed to the outer wall surface of the top cover 110 for manual operation by the user. The locking part 132 is located inside the top cover 110 and is driven to slide by the manipulation part 131 to cooperate with or separate from the cooperation part 121. The manipulation part 131 can be a slider or a push piece, and the locking part 132 can be a straight rod latch or a hook. The locking part 132 is connected with the cooperation part 121 by clamping or buckling.

[0045] It can be understood that the locking position is that the locking structure 130 is in the locked state, and the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120 are fixedly connected. The unlocking position is that the locking structure 130 is in the unlocked state, and the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120 are detachable. When the locking structure 130 is in the locking position, the locking part 132 cooperates with the cooperation part 121. When the locking structure 130 is in the unlocking position, the locking part 132 separates from the cooperation part 121. The user controls the locking structure 130 to switch between the two positions through the manipulation part 131.

[0046] The shell 100 of the utility model grasping machine locks or unlocks the top cover 110 by arranging the locking structure 130, so that the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120 can be quickly disassembled. The locking structure 130 comprises a manipulation part 131 and a locking part 132 connected with each other. The manipulation part 131 is exposed to the top cover 110 for the convenience of user operation. The locking part 132 is located on the inner side of the top cover 110 and cooperates with or moves away from the cooperation part 121, so as to lock or unlock the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120. The locking structure 130 is in sliding cooperation with the top cover 110 or the mounting bracket 120. The other one of the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120 is provided with the cooperation part 121 cooperating with the locking part 132, which means that when the user slides the manipulation part 131, the locking part 132 is driven to approach or move away from the cooperation part 121, so as to lock or unlock the top cover 110. Compared with the key locking mode, the shell 100 of the utility model grasping machine is locked by sliding, without the need of using tools, and only one hand is needed to slide the manipulation part 131 to realize the quick disassembly of the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120, thereby improving the disassembly efficiency. Compared with the pressing unlocking mode, the shell 100 of the utility model grasping machine has simple structure and low design difficulty. For example, if the pressing unlocking mode is adopted, a spring needs to be additionally arranged to make the button rebound, which will result in the increase of the number of parts and is not conducive to the simplification of parts. Moreover, a fixing structure of the spring needs to be additionally arranged, which increases the design difficulty.

[0047] In one embodiment, the operating portion 131 is connected to the top cover 110 in a transverse sliding manner to switch between the locking position and the unlocking position.

[0048] In this embodiment, the locking structure 130 is connected to the top cover 110 in a sliding manner, and the user switches between the locking position and the unlocking position by operating the operating portion 131 to move transversely and reciprocally. Compared with the longitudinal sliding manner, the transverse sliding manner is generally not easily disturbed by gravity or force in the vertical direction, and can make the sliding process more stable and reduce the frictional resistance or jamming phenomenon caused by gravity. It can be understood that the longitudinal direction refers to the direction of gravity, and the transverse direction refers to all directions in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.

[0049] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the top cover 110 is provided with a lock hole 111 extending through in the longitudinal direction, and the locking portion 132 extends into the top cover 110 through the lock hole 111; in the first direction, the locking portion 132 is provided with an arc-shaped protrusion 135 on the side close to the hole wall of the lock hole 111, and the hole wall of the lock hole 111 is recessed to form two recesses 112 respectively matched with the arc-shaped protrusions 135, the two recesses 112 respectively form the locking position and the unlocking position, and the two recesses 112 are arranged in the sliding direction; the first direction, the sliding direction and the longitudinal direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0050] In this embodiment, the bottom of the top cover 110 includes a flange, and a locking hole 111 is formed on the top wall of the flange and extends longitudinally. A locking portion 132 extends into the top cover 110 through the locking hole 111 and engages with the mating portion 121 of the mounting bracket 120. It is understood that, in the sliding direction, the length of the locking hole 111 is greater than the length of the locking portion 132, so that the locking portion 132 can slide within the locking hole 111. The locking portion 132 has an arc-shaped protrusion 135 on the side of the hole wall near the locking hole 111. The arc-shaped protrusion 135 extends longitudinally, and the locking hole 111 has two grooves 112 that adapt to the arc-shaped protrusion 135, forming a locking position and an unlocking position, respectively. When the locking structure 130 is in the locking or unlocking position, the arc-shaped protrusion 135 is embedded in the groove 112. For example, when the arc-shaped protrusion 135 of the locking part 132 engages with a groove 112 in the lock hole 111, the locking part 132 cooperates with the mating part 121, and the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120 are fixed together, making them less prone to loosening or falling off. At this time, the position of the locking part 132 in the groove 112 is the locking position, which ensures a stable connection of the components. When the operating part 131 is slid to the unlock position, the arc-shaped protrusion 135 of the locking part 132 will slide to the position of another groove 112. In this position, the arc-shaped protrusion 135 of the locking part 132 will disengage from the groove 112 it was originally engaged with, thereby releasing the connection between the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120 and moving to the unlock position. At this time, the user can easily remove the top cover 110. By providing two grooves 112 on the wall of the lock hole 111 and making the arc-shaped protrusion 135 of the locking part 132 fit into the two grooves 112 respectively, the locking position and the unlock position can be clearly distinguished.

[0051] In one embodiment, in the sliding direction, one sidewall of the lock hole 111 is located between the opposite ends of the mating portion 121, and the other sidewall is away from the mating portion 121.

[0052] Understandably, the sidewall of the keyhole 111 in the sliding direction acts as a physical boundary, limiting the range of movement of the locking part 132 during sliding. In the sliding direction, one sidewall of the keyhole 111 is located between the opposite ends of the mating part 121. This means that the movement of the locking part 132 is somewhat restricted, preventing it from exceeding or failing to reach the mating part 121 due to excessive or insufficient movement during sliding, thus avoiding incomplete locking. This clearly defines the movement path of the locking part 132, ensuring through spatial restriction that it slides only between the locked and unlocked positions, preventing it from stopping in other inappropriate locations, thereby improving structural stability.

[0053] In one embodiment, the locking part 132 is a hook; the mating part 121 includes an abutment block 122, which is laterally protruding from the wall surface of the mounting bracket 120 corresponding to the locking part 132. When the locking structure 130 is in the locking position, the locking part 132 and the abutment block 122 are engaged longitudinally.

[0054] In this embodiment, the locking part 132 and the mating part 121 are equivalent to the mating of a hook and a slot. Compared with the pin locking method, the hook design makes the engagement between the locking part 132 and the abutment block 122 more stable, avoiding the jamming phenomenon that may occur between the pin and the slot. The hook usually connects the locking part 132 and the mating part 121 easily through a "hooking" action, without requiring excessive force to insert or pull out, thus reducing wear during use. Secondly, the pin method often requires insertion into a hole, and due to the presence of friction, the hole may expand or the pin may wear after long-term use, thus affecting the locking effect and the smoothness of operation.

[0055] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 5 and Figure 8 The top cover 110 has a limiting hole 113 extending along the first direction on its peripheral sidewall. The sliding direction, the first direction, and the longitudinal direction are perpendicular to each other. The locking structure 130 also includes a limiting part 133, which is connected to the end of the operating part 131 away from the locking part 132. The operating part 131 is located outside the limiting hole 113, and the limiting part 133 extends into the limiting hole 113. A limiting block 134 protrudes from the top wall of the limiting part 133, and the limiting block 134 and the operating part 131 clamp the peripheral sidewall of the top cover 110.

[0056] In this embodiment, the sliding direction corresponds to the left-right direction, and the first direction corresponds to the front-back direction. The limiting hole 113 is located on the peripheral sidewall of the top cover 110 and extends along the first direction. The operating part 131 is located outside the limiting hole 113, meaning the operating part 131 is located on the outer peripheral sidewall of the top cover 110 in the first direction. It can be understood that, in the sliding direction, the width of the operating part 131 is greater than the width of the limiting hole 113, so that the operating part 131 and the limiting block 134 cooperate to clamp the peripheral sidewall of the top cover 110, thereby limiting the position of the locking structure 130 in the first direction and preventing the locking structure 130 from wobbling in the first direction. In other words, the wall of the limiting hole 113 is equivalent to a slide rail, and the operating part 131 and the limiting block 134 are equivalent to a sliding groove. This arrangement improves the sliding stability of the locking structure 130.

[0057] Furthermore, the outer peripheral wall of the top cover 110 is provided with an upper limit wall 114 and a lower limit wall 115. The upper limit wall 114 and the lower limit wall 115 form a sliding groove that slides with the operating part 131 to limit the operating part 131 in the longitudinal direction.

[0058] In this embodiment, a limiting strip is laterally protruding from the outer peripheral wall of the top cover 110. The bottom wall of the limiting strip forms an upper limiting wall 114. The bottom of the top cover 110 also includes a flange, the top wall of which forms a lower limiting wall 115. The operating part 131 is equivalent to a slide rail. The operating part 131 moves in the groove formed by the upper limiting wall 114 and the lower limiting wall 115, thereby limiting the longitudinal displacement of the operating part 131. This ensures precise engagement between the locking part 132 and the mating part 121, preventing incomplete locking or unlocking due to incorrect positioning of the operating part 131. Furthermore, the upper and lower limiting walls 115 guide the sliding of the operating part 131, making the sliding of the operating part 131 more stable.

[0059] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 6 and Figure 7 The bottom wall of the mounting bracket 120 has a through hole 116 corresponding to the mating part 121. When the locking structure 130 is close to the mating part 121, the locking structure 130 is exposed in the through hole 116. If the operating part 131 cannot be slid, the user cannot unlock the top cover 110 in a normal manner. Therefore, by providing a through hole 116 on the bottom wall of the mounting bracket 120, the user can use an external tool, such as a screwdriver or a sharp object, to insert into the through hole 116 to contact the locking part 132, move the locking part 132 away from the mating part 121, and thus unlock the top cover 110.

[0060] In one embodiment, the housing 100 of the gripper includes two locking structures 130, which are located on opposite sides of the top cover 110 or the mounting bracket 120.

[0061] In this embodiment, the locking structure 130 can be slidably connected to the top cover 110 or the mounting bracket 120. The housing 100 of the gripper includes two locking structures 130 located on opposite sides of the top cover 110 and the mounting bracket 120, respectively. They can be located on opposite sides in the first direction or on opposite sides in the sliding direction, without limitation. The double locking structure 130 makes the operation more balanced during disassembly and installation, avoiding the disassembly difficulties or twisting problems that may occur with a single locking structure 130, and improving the disassembly efficiency of the entire process.

[0062] This utility model also proposes a gripping machine, which includes a drive device and a gripping machine housing 100. The specific structure of the gripping machine housing 100 is as described in the above embodiments. Since this gripping machine adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here. The drive device is connected to the mounting bracket 120 of the gripping machine housing 100.

[0063] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
