[0024] Example 1

[0025] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an automatic conveying and unloading device based on infrared sensing is disclosed. This device uses an added infrared sensor to sense the position of the parts to be moved and conveyed. The device then moves the parts to the position located by the infrared sensor, thereby improving the efficiency and quality of the unloading process. The device includes a conveying robotic arm structure 1 (an existing robotic arm structure, not described in detail in this embodiment). One end of the conveying robotic arm structure 1 is connected to a clamping mechanism for gripping automotive parts, and the other end is connected to a movable structure for moving the conveying robotic arm structure 1 and the automotive parts clamped and limited by the clamping mechanism. The clamping mechanism includes a clamping mechanical mounting base 2, which is rotatably connected to the conveying robotic arm structure 1. The clamping mechanical mounting base 2 has a first conveying gripper 21 and a second conveying gripper 22 symmetrically and movably arranged, and an infrared sensor 3 is installed on the clamping mechanical mounting base 2 to detect the position of the automotive parts.

[0026] In this embodiment, by controlling the movement of the conveying robotic arm structure 1, the infrared sensor 3 mounted on the clamping mechanism mounting base 2 is activated, and the infrared sensor 3 detects the component that needs to be conveyed and moved. Then, by controlling the movement of the first conveying jaw 21 and the second conveying jaw 22 of the clamping mechanism, the component that needs to be conveyed and moved is clamped. Then, by controlling the movement of the conveying robotic arm structure 1, the position of the component that needs to be conveyed and moved is detected by the infrared sensor 3. Then, by controlling the movement of the conveying robotic arm structure 1, the component clamped by the first conveying jaw 21 and the second conveying jaw 22 is conveyed and moved to that position. Finally, the first conveying jaw 21 and the second conveying jaw 22 are released, and the component is placed at that position, completing the conveying and unloading operation.

[0027] Example 2

[0028] Based on Embodiment 1, the first conveying gripper 21 is movably connected to one side of the clamping mechanism mounting base 2 via a first conveying and clamping frame 211. The side of the first conveying and clamping frame 211 closest to the clamping mechanism mounting base 2 is rotatably connected to the clamping mechanism mounting base 2 via a first rotating shaft; the first rotating shaft is hinged to the output end of a first movable cylinder 212 via a hinged seat, and the cylinder body of the first movable cylinder 212 is used to connect to the clamping mechanism mounting base 2. Simultaneously, the second conveying gripper 22 is movably connected to the side of the clamping mechanism mounting base 2 away from the first conveying gripper 21 via a second conveying and clamping frame 221. The side of the second conveying and clamping frame 221 closest to the clamping mechanism mounting base 2 is rotatably connected to the clamping mechanism mounting base 2 via a second rotating shaft; the second rotating shaft is hinged to the output end of a second movable cylinder 222 via a hinged seat, and the cylinder body of the second movable cylinder 222 is used to connect to the clamping mechanism mounting base 2.

[0029] Furthermore, an electric rotary table 4 is provided at one end of the clamping mechanical mounting base 2 near the conveying mechanical arm structure 1. The clamping mechanical mounting base 2 is rotatably connected to the conveying mechanical arm structure 1 through the electric rotary table 4, and the clamping mechanical mounting base 2 is rotated and moved by the electric rotary table 4.

[0030] In this embodiment, by controlling the movement of the conveying robotic arm structure 1, and then by controlling the electric rotary table 4 to drive the movement of the clamping mechanical mounting base 2, it is possible to move the clamping mechanical mounting base 2 to a suitable position and, through the infrared sensor 3 installed on the clamping mechanical mounting base 2, sense the position of the parts to be clamped and unloaded, as well as the parts that can be gripped by the first conveying jaw 21 and the second conveying jaw 22. Through the "sensing positioning" of the infrared sensor 3, the parts are accurately conveyed and moved to the position "sensing positioning" of the infrared sensor 3, thereby improving processing efficiency.

[0031] Example 3

[0032] Furthermore, the movable structure of this setup includes an electric conveyor rail 5; a conveying robotic arm structure 1 is mounted and connected to the electric conveyor rail 5, and the electric conveyor rail 5 drives the conveying robotic arm structure 1 to move horizontally; the electric conveyor rail 5 is mounted and connected to a conveying platform, and the conveying platform is used for anchoring to the ground. By controlling the electric conveyor rail 5 to drive the conveying robotic arm structure 1 and the parts held by the conveying robotic arm structure 1 through the first conveying gripper 21 and the second conveying gripper 22 to move horizontally together, it is possible to move the parts in the processing plant. The conveying and unloading device moves the parts that need to be unloaded to the required position for processing, thereby saving time.
