Detailed Implementation
[0031] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0032] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown in this embodiment, a quick connection device for robot protective clothing is provided, including: a connecting ring 1.
[0033] like Figure 1-4As shown, in this embodiment, the connecting ring 1 has grooves 101 on both the front and back sides. Several sliders 3 are installed inside the grooves 101. Each slider 3 has a mounting groove 301 facing one side, and a protective suit 2 is inserted into the mounting groove 301. The grooves 101 are T-shaped, and the sliders 3 are also T-shaped. The sliders 3 slide inside the grooves 101 without falling out. The protective suit is cylindrical. When the protective suit 2 is unfolded, the sliders 3 are evenly distributed in the grooves 101. The protective suit 2 is inserted into the mounting groove 301 in the center of the slider 3, and the slider 3 is inserted into the groove 101. At 01, the front end of the slider 3 is clamped by the clamping hole at the front end of the slide groove 101 to reduce the size of the opening of the mounting groove 301, thereby fixing the protective suit 2. Since the connecting ring 1 has slide grooves 101 on both the front and back sides to install the slider 3, the two protective suits 2 are connected by the connecting ring 1, so that multiple sets of protective suits 2 can be spliced together. The length of the protective suit 2 is increased according to the actual length of the robot to adjust the splicing. At the same time, the connecting ring 1 is close to the robot joint to open up the protective suit 2 at this point, so that the protective suit 2 does not stick tightly to the robot surface, thereby avoiding affecting the rotation of the robot.
[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a fixed pressure ring 102 is fixedly connected to the front and back of the connecting ring 1 above the slide groove 101. An inner groove 103 is opened on the inner side of the connecting ring 1. A movable pressure block 104 is provided near the top inside the inner groove 103. A locking screw 105 is vertically rotated and installed at the center of the movable pressure block 104. The fixed pressure ring 102 and the movable pressure block 104 are combined and close to the protective clothing 2 extending from the slider 3 to clamp the protective clothing 2. By rotating the locking screw 105 at the movable pressure block 104, the locking screw 105 passes through the movable pressure block 104 and connects to the threaded hole at the top of the inner groove 103, thereby adjusting the distance between the movable pressure block 104 and the fixed pressure ring 102 to clamp the protective clothing 2. The adjustment is made according to the actual thickness of the protective clothing 2.
[0035] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the connecting ring 1 in this embodiment is composed of two sets of spliced parts. Connecting plates 106 are provided on the inner side of the connecting ring 1 at the splicing position. Both segments of the connecting ring 1 are semicircles and are connected by corresponding buckles to form a complete circular connecting ring 1. The connecting plates 106 fit the two segments of the inner side of the connecting ring 1 and are fixed by screws to achieve the assembly of the connecting ring 1. Before assembly, the corresponding slider 3 needs to be placed in the slide groove 101. After installation, the slider 3 will not fall off the slide groove 101.
[0036] like Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the fixing ring 102 should be covered with tape at the point where it adheres to the protective suit 2; the tape should be wrapped around the protective suit 2 and the fixing ring 102 to fill the gaps and prevent external oil from entering the slide groove 101 through the gap between the fixing ring 102 and the protective suit 2, thereby protecting the device and robot from contamination.
[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, nylon straps need to be tied to the corresponding positions on the surface of the protective suit 2; the nylon straps are wrapped around the protective suit 2 and tied tightly to the robot, thereby installing the protective suit 2 on the robot. The straps need to be positioned away from the robot joints, so that the connecting ring 1 is close to the joint position. The connecting ring 1 can support the protective suit 2 and prevent the protective suit 2 at the joint from being pinched and affecting the robot's movement.
[0038] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the protective suit 2 in this embodiment is made of double-layer fabric; the inner layer of the protective suit 2 is a metal coating made of glass fiber, and the outer layer is a metal film layer. The maximum temperature resistance is 1000℃, which plays a heat reflection role, so that the protective suit has a certain ability to resist high temperature and oil stains.
[0039] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the connecting ring 1 in this embodiment is made of high-strength, lightweight aluminum alloy, with an oxidized surface and an anti-corrosion coating. The connecting ring 1 is made of high-strength, lightweight aluminum alloy, which combines lightweight and impact resistance. Compared with traditional materials, it is lighter and will not add too much weight to the robot. The surface is coated with titanium nitride anti-corrosion coating, which is suitable for high humidity and acid and alkaline environments, extending the service life of the protective device and enabling it to maintain good performance in harsh industrial environments.
[0040] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the outer fabric of the protective suit 2 in this embodiment has tear resistance and contains an antistatic agent. Specifically, by adding special fiber reinforcement materials to the fabric, the tear resistance is improved, making it less prone to tearing when subjected to external forces. Simultaneously, the addition of an antistatic agent to the outer fabric effectively reduces the generation of static electricity on the surface of the protective suit 2, preventing the attraction of dust and other impurities due to static electricity, which would affect the protective performance and aesthetics of the protective suit 2.
[0041] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the slider 3 has a limiting protrusion on its sliding trajectory within the slide groove 101. When the slider 3 slides within the slide groove 101, the limiting protrusion restricts the sliding range of the slider, preventing it from sliding excessively and dislodging from the slide groove. This ensures the stability of the connection between the slider 3 and the slide groove 101, thereby guaranteeing the secure installation of the protective suit 2 on the connecting ring 1.
[0042] like Figure 1-3As shown, the seams of the protective suit 2 in this embodiment are connected using hot-melt welding technology. Compared to traditional sewing and other splicing methods, hot-melt welding allows the fabric at the seams to fuse into a single unit, significantly improving the splicing strength. During robot movement, the seams are less prone to cracking, effectively ensuring the integrity and protective effect of the protective suit.
[0043] Working principle: First, the complete connecting ring 1 is disassembled into two sections. A certain number of sliders 3 are installed in the slide groove 101. One section of the protective suit 2 is inserted into the mounting groove 301 of the slider 3, with the upper end attached to the fixing pressure ring 102. The bottom is rotated to rotate the locking screw 105 so that the movable pressure block 104 is attached to the fixing pressure ring 102 to assist in clamping the protective suit 2. Protective suit 2 is put on both ends of the connecting ring 1 to connect the two sections of the protective suit 2. The number of protective suit 2 and connecting ring 1 can be selected according to the needs to customize the length to adapt to robots of different heights. The installed protective suit 2 is put on the robot. The corresponding places away from the robot joints need to be tied with ropes so that the connecting ring 1 is close to the joint position to support the protective suit 2, thereby completing the fixation.
