Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of robotic arm technology, specifically a gripping robotic arm. Background Technology
[0002] In today's industrial production, logistics warehousing, and numerous automated operation scenarios, the gripping and handling of materials is a crucial link. Traditional gripping methods often rely on manual operation, which not only consumes a lot of labor costs but is also inefficient and cannot meet the needs of rapidly developing modern industries.
[0003] Early mechanical gripping devices had relatively simple functions, mostly only capable of simple opening and closing movements, making it difficult to accurately grasp materials of complex shapes and different sizes. With the advancement of automation technology, robotic arms gradually came into play, but early robotic arms had many limitations in terms of flexibility, gripping accuracy, and load capacity. For example, some robotic arms had limited joint range of motion, making it impossible to achieve omnidirectional spatial operations; some robotic arms had rudimentary gripper designs, which could easily damage fragile or smooth-surfaced objects, resulting in poor gripping stability.
[0004] At the level of drive technology, a single drive mode is insufficient to meet the dual requirements of power and precision. While hydraulic drives can provide greater power, their response speed and control precision are lacking; electric drives have advantages in precision control, but their power output is relatively limited. Moreover, traditional robotic arms often cannot simultaneously meet the needs of coordinated movement in horizontal, vertical, and multi-angle rotational directions, resulting in unsatisfactory performance in complex working environments, such as material picking in confined spaces and sorting items in irregularly stacked piles.
[0005] To overcome these challenges, this utility model was developed, aiming to create a gripping robotic arm with high precision, strong adaptability, and multi-degree-of-freedom motion through innovative structural combinations and the integration of multiple advanced driving technologies, injecting new vitality into the automation process of various industries.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Example
[0025] like Figure 1 and 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a gripping robotic arm, including a base 1 and a hydraulic cylinder 2 embedded in the base 1. This connection method enables the hydraulic cylinder 2 to be stably fixed on the base 1.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the base 1 has a flange plate with flange holes at its bottom, which is fastened to the ground with bolts, providing a stable support foundation for the entire robotic arm. The hydraulic cylinder 2 serves as the power source, and its output end drives the connecting seat 3 to rise and fall vertically, thereby adjusting the overall height of the robotic arm to meet the height requirements of different working scenarios.
[0027] like Figure 1 and 3 As shown, the top of the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 2 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 3. This connection ensures that the thrust of the hydraulic cylinder 2 can be effectively transmitted to the connecting seat 3. The connecting seat 3 serves to receive the power of the hydraulic cylinder 2 and transmit it to subsequent components, driving components such as the rotating box 4 to change their height.
[0028] like Figure 1 and 3 As shown, the rotating box 4 is fixedly mounted on the top of the connecting seat 3, so that the rotating box 4 can be stably mounted above the connecting seat 3. The connecting seat 3 provides support for the rotating box 4, ensuring the stability of the rotating box 4 when performing rotation and other actions, and also transmits the vertical movement of the hydraulic cylinder 2 to the rotating box 4.
[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, the servo motor 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating box 4, and its output end passes through the rotating box 4 and connects to the worm gear 6 inside. This connection method allows the servo motor 5 to directly drive the worm gear 6 to rotate, providing power for the horizontal rotation of the robotic arm.
[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the worm 6 meshes with the worm wheel 7, and the rotation of the worm 6 drives the rotation of the worm wheel 7. This transmission method has a large transmission ratio, which can achieve precise rotation control of the robotic arm in the horizontal direction, and at the same time provide a certain self-locking function to ensure the positional stability of the robotic arm when it stops rotating.
[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, the worm gear 7 is connected to the turntable 8 in the middle via a shaft, and the shaft is rotatably connected inside the rotating box 4 via a bearing seat. This connection allows the rotation of the worm gear 7 to drive the turntable 8 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the turntable 8 enables the robot arm to adjust its angle in the horizontal direction, thus expanding the robot arm's working range.
[0032] like Figure 1 and 3 As shown, the top of the turntable 8 is fixedly connected to the top seat 9. The top seat 9 rotates with the turntable 8, transmitting the rotational motion of the turntable 8 to subsequent components, providing support and a motion basis for the connecting rod 10.
[0033] like Figure 1 and 3 As shown, a connecting rod 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the top seat 9, allowing the connecting rod 10 to move together with the top seat 9. The connecting rod 10 rotates horizontally under the drive of the top seat 9, and also provides an installation position for the electric push rod 11.
[0034] like Figure 1 and 3 As shown, the electric push rod 11 is installed at the front end of the connecting rod 10. The extension and retraction of the electric push rod 11 can change the extension length of the front end of the connecting rod 10, thereby adjusting the horizontal distance when the robotic arm grips the material, so that the robotic arm can adapt to the gripping needs of materials in different positions.
[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, the output end of the electric push rod 11 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 12. The pushing or pulling force of the electric push rod 11 acts directly on the connecting seat 12, causing the connecting seat 12 to move, thereby realizing the position adjustment of the mounting block 13 and the gripper 15 installed at the bottom of the connecting seat 12.
[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the connecting seat 12 is fixedly connected to the mounting block 13, providing support and fixation for the mounting block 13. The mounting block 13 is used to mount the bidirectional electric actuator 14 and transmit the movement of the connecting seat 12 to the bidirectional electric actuator 14.
[0037] like Figure 4As shown, the bidirectional electric actuator 14 is embedded inside the mounting block 13, which provides a stable mounting position for the bidirectional electric actuator 14. Under the constraint of the mounting block 13, the bidirectional electric actuator 14 moves linearly, driving the gripper 15 to open and close, thereby grasping and holding materials.
[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, one end of the bidirectional electric push rod 14 is fixedly connected to the gripper 15, and the extension and retraction of the bidirectional electric push rod 14 directly controls the opening and closing of the gripper 15. Four bidirectional electric push rods 14, arranged horizontally and vertically with staggered heights, work together to enable the gripper 15 to adapt to materials of different shapes and sizes, achieving precise gripping and stable clamping.
[0039] When the gripping robotic arm is in operation, the base 1 is bolted to the ground via the flange holes of the bottom flange plate, providing stable support. The hydraulic cylinder 2 is activated, pushing the connecting seat 3 to rise or fall vertically, achieving overall height adjustment of the robotic arm. The servo motor 5 is powered on, driving the worm gear 6 to rotate. The worm gear 6 meshes with the worm wheel 7, causing the worm wheel 7 to rotate around its axis, which in turn drives the connected turntable 8 to rotate, achieving horizontal rotation of the robotic arm. The top seat 9 of the turntable 8 drives the connecting rod 10 to move. The electric push rod 11 at the front end of the connecting rod 10 extends and retracts, pushing the connecting seat 12 to adjust the extension length of the robotic arm's front end. Four bidirectional electric push rods 14, arranged horizontally and vertically with staggered heights, within the mounting block 13 drive the grippers 15 to move, achieving precise gripping and stable clamping of materials. All structures work together to complete tasks such as material gripping and handling.
[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
