Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical gripper technology, specifically to an adjustable mechanical gripper mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] A mechanical gripper is a mechanical device used to grasp, hold, or move objects. It is typically used as an end effector in robots or automated equipment and is widely applied in industries such as manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, and services. Grasping objects involves using clamping or suction forces to hold the target object in place. Moving objects from one location to another is another function. In conjunction with sensors or vision systems, it enables precision tasks such as assembly and sorting.

[0003] For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN206029935U provides a robotic arm loading / unloading terminal gripper assembly, belonging to the field of mechanical technology. It solves the problem of easy damage to pneumatic grippers in existing gripper assemblies. This robotic arm loading / unloading terminal gripper assembly includes a rotary cylinder, a gripper connecting block fixedly connected to the rotary cylinder's rotation shaft, and a first gripper and a second gripper fixedly connected to the gripper connecting block, arranged perpendicularly to each other. The axes of the first gripper and the second gripper are respectively eccentric to the axis of the rotary cylinder's rotation shaft, and the first and second grippers are located on opposite sides of the rotary cylinder's rotation shaft. This robotic arm loading / unloading terminal gripper assembly has advantages such as being less prone to damage during use.

[0004] The existing mechanical grippers, as described in the aforementioned patent, cannot adjust their gripping stroke and position according to actual usage conditions, resulting in low applicability. Furthermore, different mechanical grippers need to be replaced for workpieces of different shapes, leading to frequent changes in the mechanical grippers during production and requiring readjustment and adaptation of their parameters, which significantly impacts production progress.

[0005] Therefore, the applicant has made beneficial designs and found a way to solve the above problems. The technical solution to be introduced below is generated in this context. Utility Model Content

Each gripper mechanism includes a parallel sliding rod and a screw rod. Gripper seats are slidably mounted on the sliding rod and the screw rod. The bottom of each gripper seat has an installation groove. A detachable and replaceable gripper is provided in the installation groove. The surface of the sliding rod has a scale.

[0009] Preferably, each end surface of the clamp has two mounting holes, and the slide rod and screw are respectively installed in the two mounting holes.

[0010] Preferably, locking nuts are screwed onto both sides of the screw located on the jaw seat.
