Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical automation technology, specifically to an automated robotic arm. Background Technology
[0002] Automation refers to the process by which machines or devices operate or are controlled automatically according to predetermined programs or instructions without human intervention. Mechanical automation is the process by which machines or devices achieve automated control through mechanical means. Mechanical automation is widely used in the processing and manufacturing industry. With the development of technology, some automated mechanical operating equipment has gradually replaced manual operation on some production lines. For example, on some production lines, products need to be transferred to complete the transfer of production lines to achieve orderly processing of different processes. The conventional production line product transfer method is mostly to achieve the transfer of products through robotic arms.
[0003] Therefore, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN 222779595 U proposes an automated robotic arm, including a moving track and a cleaning device. A power unit is mounted on the surface of the moving track, and a horizontal arm is fixedly connected to the side of the power unit. A movable device is mounted on the surface of the horizontal arm, and a gripping head is mounted on the lower surface of the movable device. The cleaning device is mounted on the surface of the power unit and includes a cleaning plate and a connecting block, with the connecting block fixedly connected to the side of the power unit. This utility model, by incorporating a cleaning device, effectively cleans the interior of the moving track, removing dust and debris. This reduces the risk of dust or debris accumulating inside the moving track during prolonged use, which can clog the inner wall and hinder the smooth sliding of the power unit, thus improving the practicality of the equipment.
[0004] However, in actual production environments, especially in places with a lot of dust and where debris is easily dropped, the automated robotic arm cannot fundamentally solve the problem by simply cleaning it afterward. In the long run, frequent cleaning will increase manpower and time costs, and it is impossible to guarantee that the moving track is always in good operating condition, thus resulting in defects in the use of the device. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an automated robotic arm to solve the problems mentioned in the background section.
[0006] When this automated robotic arm is in use, in actual production environments, especially in places with a lot of dust and where debris is easy to fall, it is difficult to fundamentally solve the problem by simply cleaning it later. In the long run, frequent cleaning work will increase manpower and time costs, and it is impossible to ensure that the moving track is always in good operating condition, thus resulting in defects in the use of the device.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0008] An automated robotic arm includes a base and a slide rail. The slide rail is fixedly connected to the top of the base, and a fixed seat is slidably connected to the top of the slide rail. The robotic arm body is mounted on the top of the fixed seat. Both ends of the slide rail and the fixed seat are detachably connected to a first fixed frame. The first fixed frame has four sets, and a scissor-type telescopic frame is provided between two sets of the first fixed frames. A second fixed frame is mounted on the top of the scissor-type telescopic frame. A first telescopic plate is fixedly connected between the second fixed frame and the first fixed frame. A second telescopic plate is fixedly connected between the second fixed frames. A collection box is fixedly connected to one side of the slide rail. A dust collection drawer is detachably connected inside the collection box. A second filter plate is fixedly connected to one side of the dust collection drawer. A first filter plate is fixedly connected to one side of the collection box. A fan is fixedly connected to the end of the base away from the collection box. An air inlet is opened at one end of the slide rail, penetrating its surface. An air blowing port is fixedly connected to the outside of the slide rail. One end of the fan is fixedly connected to the air blowing port.
[0009] Preferably, a cylinder is fixedly connected to the top of the base, and the output end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the fixed seat.
[0010] Preferably, both sides of the fixing base and the slide rail are provided with locking holes, and the first fixing frame is slidably connected with a locking block, which is used in conjunction with the locking holes.
[0011] Preferably, the first fixing frame has symmetrically fixed sliding rods inside, and the outer side of the sliding rods is slidably connected to the locking block.
[0012] Preferably, a spring is fixedly connected between one side of the card block and the first fixing frame.
[0013] Preferably, a T-shaped plate is fixedly connected inside the first fixing frame, and fixing grooves are provided at both ends of the slide rail and the fixing seat.
[0014] Preferably, one end of the card block is fixedly connected to a connecting plate through one side of the first fixing frame.
[0015] This invention provides an automated robotic arm. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:
[0016] 1. This automated robotic arm, by setting a detachable first fixed frame at both ends of the slide rail and the fixed base, and in conjunction with a scissor-type telescopic frame, a second fixed plate, a first telescopic plate, and a second telescopic plate, constructs a highly efficient dust protection system. The scissor-type telescopic frame consists of multiple sets of connecting shafts and linkages. Its structure allows the first and second fixed frames to naturally expand or contract when moving, providing all-round shielding protection for the slide rail without affecting the normal movement of the fixed base. This effectively prevents dust and impurities from entering the slide rail, significantly reducing the wear and failure risk caused by impurities intruding into the slide rail, and greatly improving the stability and reliability of the robotic arm's operation.
[0017] 2. This automated robotic arm has a fan fixedly connected to one end of its base. Through the air inlet and outlet on the slide rail, it can directionally blow external air into the slide rail. Using the propulsive force of the airflow, dust and impurities in the slide rail are precisely blown into the collection box through the connecting groove. The removable dust collection drawer inside the collection box makes it convenient for staff to clean dust and impurities regularly. The operation is convenient and efficient. At the same time, the second filter plate and the first filter plate respectively set on one side of the dust collection drawer and the collection box can perform double filtration on the exhaust air, effectively preventing secondary diffusion of dust, ensuring both cleaning effect and maintaining the cleanliness of the production environment.

[0025] 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.
[0026] Please see Figures 1-6This utility model provides a technical solution: an automated robotic arm, including a base 1 and a slide rail 2. The slide rail 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, and a fixed seat 3 is slidably connected to the top of the slide rail 2. The fixed seat 3 moves along the top of the slide rail 2, and a robotic arm body 4 is mounted on the top of the fixed seat 3. The movement of the fixed seat 3 moves the robotic arm body 4. Both ends of the slide rail 2 and the fixed seat 3 are detachably connected to a first fixed frame 5. The first fixed frame 5 has four sets, and a scissor-type telescopic frame 7 is provided between two sets of first fixed frames 5. A second fixed frame is mounted on the top of the scissor-type telescopic frame 7. The fixed frame 8 and the scissor-type telescopic frame 7 are composed of multiple sets of connecting shafts and connecting rods. The connecting shafts at both ends of the scissor-type telescopic frame 7 are fixedly connected to the first fixed frame 5, and the other connecting shafts are fixedly connected to the center of one side of the second fixed frame 8. The outer side of the connecting shaft is rotatably connected to the connecting rod. A first telescopic plate 9 is fixedly connected between the second fixed frame 8 and the first fixed frame 5, and a second telescopic plate 24 is fixedly connected between the second fixed frames 8. When the first fixed frame 5 and the second fixed frame 8 move, the first telescopic plate 9 and the second telescopic plate 24 are extended or retracted, so that the second telescopic plate 24 and the first telescopic plate 9 do not obstruct each other. While the fixed base 3 moves, it can still block the slide rail 2. A collection box 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the slide rail 2. A connecting groove is opened between one side of the collection box 11 and the slide rail 2 to facilitate the entry of dust and impurities in the slide rail 2 into the collection box 11. A dust collection drawer 12 is detachably connected inside the collection box 11. The dust collection drawer 12 collects dust and impurities for subsequent handling by personnel. A second filter plate 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the dust collection drawer 12 to filter the gas leaving the dust collection drawer 12. A first filter plate is fixedly connected to one side of the collection box 11. Plate 13 filters the gas leaving the collection box 11. A fan 22 is fixedly connected to the end of the base 1 away from the collection box 11. The air inlet of the fan 22 is equipped with a filter screen to prevent dust and impurities from entering the fan 22 and causing damage. One end of the slide rail 2 has an air inlet 16 that penetrates its surface. An air blowing port 23 is fixedly connected to the outside of the slide rail 2. One end of the fan 22 is fixedly connected to the air blowing port 23. The fan 22 blows the outside gas into the slide rail 2 through the air blowing port 23 and the air inlet 16, and blows the dust and impurities in the slide rail 2 into the collection box 11 through the connecting groove.
[0027] Furthermore, a cylinder 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, and the output end of the cylinder 10 is fixedly connected to the fixed seat 3. When the cylinder 10 is turned on, it moves the fixed seat 3.
[0028] Furthermore, both sides of the fixed base 3 and the slide rail 2 are provided with locking holes 15. The first fixed frame 5 is slidably connected with a locking block 18. The locking block 18 is used in conjunction with the locking hole 15. The locking block 18 enters the locking hole 15 and fixes the first fixed frame 5 to the outside of the fixed base 3 and the slide rail 2.
[0029] Furthermore, the first fixing frame 5 is symmetrically fixedly connected with a slide rod 19 inside, and the outer side of the slide rod 19 is slidably connected to the locking block 18, and the locking block 18 moves along the outer side of the slide rod 19.
[0030] Furthermore, a spring 20 is fixedly connected between one side of the locking block 18 and the first fixing frame 5. When the locking block 18 moves, it compresses the spring 20. The spring 20 generates elastic force when it is compressed. When the spring 20 loses its compressive force, it returns to its original position with the locking block 18 under the action of the elastic force.
[0031] Furthermore, a T-shaped plate 6 is fixedly connected inside the first fixed frame 5, and fixing grooves 17 are provided at both ends of the slide rail 2 and the fixed seat 3. The outer side of the T-shaped plate 6 fits against the inner wall of the fixing groove 17, which restricts the movement range of the first fixed frame 5 on the surface of the slide rail 2 and the fixed seat 3, and strengthens the connection between the first fixed frame 5 and the slide rail 2 and the fixed seat 3.
[0032] Furthermore, one end of the locking block 18 passes through one side of the first fixing frame 5 and is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 21. The movement of the connecting plate 21 moves the locking block 18.
[0033] In use, cylinder 10 is activated, causing the fixed base 3 to move within the slide rail 2. The movement of the fixed base 3 moves the main body 4 of the robotic arm, adjusting its position. Simultaneously, the movement of the fixed base 3 moves the first fixed frames 5 at both ends, which in turn move one end of the scissor-type telescopic frames 7. The two sets of scissor-type telescopic frames 7 expand and contract with the movement of the fixed base 3. Simultaneously, the movement of the scissor-type telescopic frames 7 is accompanied by the movement of the second fixed frame 8, the first telescopic plate 9, and the second telescopic plate 24. The first telescopic plate 9 and cylinder 10 contract or expand, creating a dust barrier above the slide rail 2, effectively preventing dust and debris from entering the moving track. When inspection and maintenance of the moving track are required, the locking block 1 is moved via the connecting plate 21. 8. The locking block 18 leaves the locking hole 15, loosening the connection between the first fixing frame 5 and the slide rail 2 and the fixing seat 3. The first fixing frame 5, the second fixing frame 8, the first telescopic plate 9, the second telescopic plate 24 and the scissor telescopic frame 7 are removed from the outside of the slide rail 2 and the fixing seat 3 to facilitate the staff to inspect and maintain the slide rail 2. When the slide rail 2 needs to be cleaned, the fan 22 is turned on. The fan 22 draws the outside air into the air blowing port 23, and then blows it into the slide rail 2 through the air inlet 16. The dust and impurities in the slide rail 2 move towards the collection box 11 with the airflow and fall into the dust collection drawer 12 in the collection box 11. The second filter plate 14 and the first filter plate 13 filter the air leaving the collection box 11, so that the impurities in the air are collected in the dust collection drawer 12, and the clean air is discharged to the outside.
