[0020] This utility model provides a technical solution: Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 6 The figure shows an adjustable automotive sunroof glass processing gripping device, including a transporter body 1 and a mounting plate 7 detachably mounted on the transporter body 1. A connecting column 2 is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom end of the mounting plate 7. A cross-shaped plate 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting column 2. Four vacuum suction cups 5 are fixedly mounted in a circular array around the bottom end of the cross-shaped plate 3. A cross-shaped groove 11 is opened through the upper end of the cross-shaped plate 3 away from its center. A cross-shaped block 12 is attached to the inner wall of each of the four cross-shaped grooves 11. An adjustment mechanism is provided between the four cross-shaped blocks 12 and the connecting column 2. An L-shaped plate 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of each of the four cross-shaped blocks 12. A support plate 13 is elastically set above the horizontal part of each of the four L-shaped plates 6 through an elastic element. A guide mechanism is provided between each of the four support plates 13 and the four L-shaped plates 6.

[0021] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 3 The adjustment mechanism shown in the figure includes a collar 8, which is slidably sleeved on the upper part of the outer wall of the connecting column 2. The outer wall of the collar 8 is rotatably connected to four support rods 4 in a circular array around its center. The ends of the four support rods 4 away from the collar 8 are rotatably connected to the upper ends of four cross-shaped blocks 12 respectively. A drive assembly is provided between the collar 8 and the mounting plate 7.

[0022] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3The driving assembly shown in the figure includes a U-shaped plate 9 and an electric push rod 10. The electric push rod 10 is fixedly installed at the lower edge of the mounting plate 7, and the U-shaped plate 9 is fixedly connected to the upper edge of the collar 8. The upper end of the U-shaped plate 9 is fixedly connected to the telescopic shaft end of the electric push rod 10.

[0023] Please see Figure 4 The elastic element shown in the figure includes a connecting rod 15, which is fixedly connected to the middle of the bottom end of the support plate 13 and moves through the bottom of the horizontal part of the L-shaped plate 6. A spring 16 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod 15 and is fixedly connected between the bottom end of the support plate 13 and the upper end of the horizontal part of the L-shaped plate 6.

[0024] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 The guide mechanism shown in the figure includes a T-shaped block 17 and a T-shaped groove 18. The T-shaped block 17 is fixedly connected to one end of the pallet 13 corresponding to the vertical part of the L-shaped plate 6. The T-shaped groove 18 is opened on the vertical wall of the L-shaped plate 6 corresponding to the pallet 13, and the T-shaped groove 18 and the T-shaped block 17 are in sliding fit.

[0025] Please see Figure 2 - Figure 4 As shown in the figure, rubber pads 14 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the four support plates 13.

[0026] Working principle: When moving the sunroof glass of a car over a short distance, the main body 1 of the transporter will drive the connecting column 2 on the mounting plate 7 to move (it should be noted that the mounting plate 7 has multiple mounting slots to facilitate the replacement and maintenance of the components below the mounting plate 7). The connecting column 2 will drive the cross-shaped plate 3 to move and firmly hold the sunroof glass in place through the four vacuum suction cups 5 on the cross-shaped plate 3, thereby realizing the short-distance transport of the sunroof glass. When the sunroof glass is transported to the designated position, air will be automatically blown into the four vacuum suction cups 5 to release the sunroof glass (the above are all known existing technologies and will not be described in detail).

[0027] After the four vacuum suction cups 5 move the sunroof glass of the car a short distance upward, the electric push rod 10 can be activated. The telescopic shaft of the electric push rod 10 will retract and drive the U-shaped plate 9 upward. The U-shaped plate 9 will drive the collar 8 to slide upward on the outer wall of the connecting column 2. The collar 8 will drive the four support rods 4 on it to move upward together. The ends of the four support rods 4 away from the collar 8 will move closer to the connecting column 2. The four support rods 4 will also drive the cross-shaped blocks 12 on their respective cross-shaped plates 3 to slide towards the center point of the cross-shaped plate 3 in the cross-shaped grooves 11 on their respective cross-shaped plates 3 (during this process, the four support rods 4 will also slide in the collar 8 and their respective cross-shaped grooves 11). (The four cross-shaped blocks 12 rotate between each other), and the four cross-shaped blocks 12 will drive the L-shaped plates 6 on each of them to move towards the center point of the cross-shaped plate 3. The four cross-shaped blocks 12 will drive the support plates 13 on each of them to move towards the center point of the cross-shaped plate 3. At this time, the four support plates 13 can be moved to the bottom of the car sunroof glass to protect it. When the car sunroof glass is moved to the designated position, the electric push rod 10 is activated again. At this time, the telescopic shaft of the electric push rod 10 will move downward. According to the same principle, the four support plates 13 can automatically reset and will not obstruct the placement of the car sunroof glass.

[0028] When the sunroof glass is accidentally dropped from the four vacuum suction cups 5 during transport, it will fall onto the rubber pads 14 on each of the four support plates 13. (The rubber pads 14 prevent the sunroof glass from directly contacting the support plates 13, and their soft texture and deformation capacity provide some protection for the sunroof glass.) When the sunroof glass falls and presses against the support plates 13, each of the four support plates 13 will move downwards a short distance. (During this process, the T-shaped blocks 17 on the four support plates 13 will move downwards within the T-shaped grooves 18 on their respective L-shaped plates 6.) The four support plates 13 will then cause their connecting rods 15 to slide downwards within the inner walls of their respective L-shaped plates 6. During this process, the springs 16 between the four support plates 13 and the L-shaped plates 6 will be compressed against the outer walls of their respective connecting rods 15. The four springs 16 can reduce the impact of the sunroof glass falling directly onto the four support plates 13, further providing cushioning protection for the sunroof glass.
