A conveying assembly is provided on the lower surface of the robotic arm body 1 for conveying the carrying device.
[0029] Specifically, the first fixing block 2 is fixed by the robotic arm body 1, and the second fixing block 3 fixed inside the first fixing block 2 can drive the sliding block 4 to be fixed, so that the button 5 can slide stably inside the sliding block 4. The button 5 drives the spring 6 to slide, and at the same time drives the sliding column 7 to slide inside the second fixing block 3, which has the effect of preventing the spring 6 and the sliding column 7 from falling off. The sliding column 7 drives the connecting rod 8 to slide, and the locking column 9 rotating inside the connecting rod 8 rotates outside the limiting column 10 fixed inside the first fixing block 2, realizing the stable swinging clamping effect of the locking column 9. During use, the end effector can be quickly changed to different end effectors when facing different product types, so that the robotic arm can quickly adapt to new task requirements, increasing the flexibility and response speed of production.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 The conveying assembly includes a base 11, the upper surface of which is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the robotic arm body 1. A first motor 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the base 11. A rotating column 13 is fixedly installed at the output end of the first motor 12. A conveyor belt 14 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the rotating column 13. The inner wall of the conveyor belt 14 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the base 11.
[0031] Specifically, the first motor 12 fixed inside the base 11 drives the rotating column 13 to rotate, which in turn drives the conveyor belt 14 to rotate. During use, the conveyor belt 14 quickly transports the material box, enabling the robotic arm to perform uninterrupted tray operation, thereby greatly improving the working efficiency of the entire tray system.

The outer wall of the first rack 19 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the robotic arm body 1. A worm gear 20 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transmission gear 16. A worm 21 is meshed with the tooth end of the worm gear 20. A sliding gear 22 is meshed with the tooth end of the worm 21. A threaded rod 23 is meshed with the tooth end of the sliding gear 22. The outer wall of the sliding gear 22 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the worm 21.
[0033] Specifically, the second motor 25 drives the threaded rod 23 to rotate, which in turn drives the sliding gear 22 to rotate. The sliding gear 22 slides outside the worm gear 21, allowing the threaded rod 23 to drive the worm gear 21 to rotate together, thus achieving the function of rotation adjustment. The worm gear 21 drives the worm wheel 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the transmission gear 16 to rotate, and simultaneously drives the rotating gear 17 to rotate together, achieving a stable rotation effect. The rotating gear 17 drives the sector gear 18 to rotate, which in turn drives the first rack 19 into the first fixed box 15, achieving a stable pushing and pushing effect. During use, this allows the filled material box to be pushed out quickly, improving the working efficiency of the entire tray system and reducing the dwell time of the material box at the tray position.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 The outer wall of the sliding gear 22 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the threaded rod 23. The outer wall of the second fixed box 24 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the base 11. A second motor 25 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the base 11. A threaded rod 23 is fixedly installed at the output end of the second motor 25. A first bevel gear 26 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded rod 23. The tooth end of the first bevel gear 26 is meshed with a second bevel gear 27. The outer wall of the second bevel gear 27 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the second fixed box 24. A fixed gear 31 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second bevel gear 27. The tooth end of the fixed gear 31 is meshed with a second bevel gear 27. The second rack 32 has a slider 29 fixedly connected to its outer wall. The inner wall of the second fixed box 24 is provided with a guide shaft, and the outer wall of the guide shaft is slidably connected to the outer wall of the second rack 32. The lower surface of the slider 29 is slidably connected to the inner bottom wall of the second fixed box 24. The inner bottom wall of the second fixed box 24 is provided with a slide bar, and the inner wall of the slide bar is slidably connected to the outer wall of the slider 29. The outer wall of the threaded rod 23 is threadedly connected to a slide rod 28, and the outer wall of the slide rod 28 is slidably connected to a clamping block 30. The outer wall of the slide rod 28 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slider 29, and the outer wall of the clamping block 30 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slider 29.
[0035] Specifically, the second motor 25 drives the threaded rod 23 to rotate, which in turn causes the sliding rod 28, whose external thread rotates, to adjust the size of the clamping block 30 to accommodate different material boxes. The threaded rod 23 drives the first bevel gear 26 to rotate, which in turn drives the second bevel gear 27 to rotate, and simultaneously drives the fixed gear 31 to rotate, thus ensuring the stable rotation of the fixed gear 31 and preventing it from falling off. The fixed gear 31 drives the second rack 32 to rotate, which in turn causes the slider 29 fixed to the outside of the second rack 32 to drive the clamping block 30, thus achieving a stable centering and clamping effect for the material box. During use, the clamping block 30 facilitates precise centering and placement of material boxes of different sizes, shapes, and weights, preventing misalignment or tilting when placing materials.
[0036] Working principle: When this device is needed, the first motor 12 drives the rotating column 13 to rotate, which in turn drives the conveyor belt 14 to stably transport the material box. The second motor 25 drives the threaded rod 23 to rotate, which allows the sliding clamp 30 of the slide bar 28 to be adjusted in size. The first bevel gear 26 drives the second bevel gear 27 to rotate, which in turn drives the fixed gear 31 fixed to the second bevel gear 27 to drive the slider 29 fixed to the second rack 32 to stably center and clamp the material box. The threaded rod 23 drives... The sliding gear 22 rotates. When it is necessary to eject the material box, the sliding gear 22 slides outside the worm gear 21, causing the sliding gear 22 to drive the worm gear 21 to rotate, achieving the effect of rotation adjustment. The worm gear 21 drives the worm wheel 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the transmission gear 16 to rotate, and simultaneously drives the rotating gear 17 to rotate. This allows the rotating gear 17 to rotate and stably push and pull the first rack 19 to achieve the effect of ejecting the material box. The robotic arm body 1 drives the first fixed block 2 to swing the tray. When it needs to be replaced, the sliding block 4 is rotated. Pressing button 5 prevents it from falling off. Button 5 drives spring 6 to slide, simultaneously causing slide column 7 to slide within the second fixed block 3. This allows the connecting rod 8 fixed within slide column 7 to drive the locking column 9, achieving stable sliding and preventing it from falling off. By sliding the locking column 9 outside the limiting column 10, it can swing to both sides, enabling quick replacement of the end effector. When the end effector is placed within the second fixed block 3, releasing button 5 causes spring 6 to rebound and rotate, fixing button 5 within slide block 4 and quickly securing the end effector. The locking column 9 enables quick replacement of different end effectors, allowing the robotic arm to quickly adapt to new task requirements, increasing production flexibility and response speed. The first rack 19 enables rapid ejection of the material box, reducing its dwell time on the tray and facilitating quick replacement of new material boxes. The clamping block 30 ensures stable centering and clamping of the material box, facilitating precise centering and placement of material boxes of different sizes, shapes, and weights, preventing misalignment or tilting during material placement.
