Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of industrial robot technology, specifically relating to an automotive parts handling robot. Background Technology
[0002] In the context of the trend towards intelligent and flexible production in the modern automotive manufacturing industry, automotive parts handling operations serve as a crucial link connecting the four core processes of stamping, welding, painting, and final assembly. Their efficiency and precision directly determine the overall efficiency of the production line. In the automotive production process, from the transfer of metal sheets in the stamping workshop to the assembly of parts in the welding workshop, and then to the precision assembly of engines, transmissions, interior parts, and other components in the final assembly workshop, every link relies on a reliable parts handling system.
[0003] Currently, most handling robots use limiting structures on their tops to restrict automotive parts. However, these limiting structures are mostly fixed-size slots or baffles, which cannot provide effective constraints when faced with parts that exceed the preset specifications. Some adjustable limiting structures rely on manual adjustment, requiring reinstallation and calibration for different part models, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to adjustment deviations. During high-speed handling, due to the lack of precise limiting, parts may shift or even fall due to inertia. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to enable rapid adjustment of automotive parts of different models and sizes without the need to design and manufacture a separate fixing device for each part, thus significantly improving the efficiency and flexibility of the handling equipment.
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows: an automotive parts handling robot, comprising: a moving part, wherein the moving part includes a base;
[0006] The limiting component includes an L-shaped limiting rod, a top plate, an inner groove, a turntable, a lead screw, and a nut. The upper part of the inner surface of the machine base has an inner groove, the turntable is set on the inner surface of the inner groove, the lead screw is rotatably connected between the two turntables, the nut is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the lead screw, the top plate is fixed to the top of the machine base, and the L-shaped limiting rod is movably installed inside the top plate.
[0007] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, the top plate has sliding grooves on both sides of its outer surface, and an L-shaped limiting rod is provided on one side of the sliding rod, which is movably connected inside the sliding groove.
[0008] In another specific embodiment of this utility model, a support frame is fixed between the slide rod and the nut, and a groove is provided on the top of the base, with the support frame located inside the groove.
[0009] In another specific embodiment of this utility model, the limiting component further includes a support frame, which is fixed to the upper part of the outer surface of the base.
[0010] In another specific embodiment of this utility model, the moving component further includes moving wheels, which are disposed at the bottom of the base and are evenly distributed.
[0011] In another specific embodiment of this utility model, a support component is also included. The support component includes a support rod, a lower side plate, a lower rotating rod, a telescopic rod, and a hydraulic rod. The lower side plate is fixed to the lower part of the outer surface of the base. The lower rotating rod is disposed between the two lower side plates. The hydraulic rod is rotatably connected to the outside of the lower rotating rod. The support rod is provided with the top end of the hydraulic rod, and the telescopic rod is provided with the top end of the support rod.
[0012] In a further specific embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the L-shaped limiting rod is provided with an upper side plate, and an upper rotating rod is provided between the two upper side plates, with a telescopic rod rotatably connected to the outer surface of the upper rotating rod.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model, through the provided limiting components, enables the motor to start when transporting different models of automotive parts, driving the turntable to rotate smoothly, which in turn drives the lead screw to rotate synchronously. The nut and the lead screw are engaged through a threaded pair, efficiently converting the rotational motion of the lead screw into linear motion, displacing it along the axial direction of the lead screw. The movement of the nut drives multiple L-shaped limiting rods connected to it to move synchronously, ensuring that each L-shaped limiting rod can adjust its spacing at the same speed and in a symmetrical manner. During the high-speed transport of automotive parts, due to the effects of acceleration and inertia, the parts are prone to displacement or even falling. The precisely adjusted L-shaped limiting rods can provide reliable constraints and support for the automotive parts, effectively resisting the inertial forces generated during transport. Even in complex motion states such as acceleration, deceleration, or turning, the parts can maintain a stable position, greatly reducing the risk of displacement and falling. It can also be quickly adjusted for different models and sizes of automotive parts, without the need to design and manufacture fixing devices separately for each part, significantly improving the efficiency and flexibility of the transport equipment.

[0020] Please see Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model is an automotive parts handling robot, comprising:
[0021] A movable component, the movable component including a base 100;
[0022] The limiting component includes an L-shaped limiting rod 200, a top plate 201, an inner groove 210, a turntable 206, a lead screw 205, and a nut 208. The upper part of the inner surface of the machine base 100 has an inner groove 210. The turntable 206 is disposed on the inner surface of the inner groove 210. The lead screw 205 is rotatably connected between the two turntables 206. The nut 208 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the lead screw 205. The top plate 201 is fixed to the top of the machine base 100. The L-shaped limiting rod 200 is movably installed inside the top plate 201.
[0023] With the provided limiting components, when handling different models of automotive parts, the motor starts, driving the turntable 206 to rotate smoothly, which in turn drives the lead screw 205 to rotate synchronously. The nut 208 and the lead screw 205 are engaged through a threaded pair, which efficiently converts the rotational motion of the lead screw 205 into linear motion, displacing it along the axial direction of the lead screw 205. The movement of the nut 208 drives multiple L-shaped limiting rods 200 connected to it to move synchronously, ensuring that each L-shaped limiting rod 200 can adjust its spacing at the same speed and in a symmetrical manner. It can also be quickly adjusted for different models and sizes of automotive parts, significantly improving the efficiency and flexibility of the handling equipment.
[0024] The top plate 201 has sliding grooves 202 on both sides of its outer surface, and a sliding rod 207 is provided on one side of the L-shaped limiting rod 200. The sliding rod 207 is movably connected to the inside of the sliding groove 202.
[0025] When the L-shaped limit rod 200 is displaced, its slide rod 207 moves simultaneously inside the slide groove 202, which can provide support.
[0026] A support frame 209 is fixed between the slide rod 207 and the nut 208. A groove 204 is provided on the top of the base 100, and the support frame 209 is located inside the groove 204.
[0027] The limiting component also includes a support frame 203, which is fixed to the upper part of the outer surface of the base 100;
[0028] The support frame 203 surrounds the outside of the base 100 and supports the lead screw 205 and the turntable 206.
[0029] The moving component also includes moving wheels 101, which are disposed at the bottom of the base 100 and are evenly distributed.
[0030] Using the casters 101 at the bottom, the base 100 can be moved to the location where it needs to be transported.
[0031] Working principle: First, when transporting different models of automotive parts, the motor starts, driving the turntable 206 to rotate smoothly, which in turn drives the lead screw 205 to rotate synchronously. The nut 208 and the lead screw 205 are connected by a threaded pair, efficiently converting the rotational motion of the lead screw 205 into linear motion, displacing it along the axial direction of the lead screw 205. The movement of the nut 208 drives multiple L-shaped limit rods 200 connected to it to move synchronously. At the same time, the slide rod 207 moves inside the slide groove 202, and the support frame 209 moves inside the groove, which can support the L-shaped limit rods 200, ensuring that each L-shaped limit rod 200 can move at the same speed. The symmetrical spacing adjustment effectively restrains and supports automotive parts during high-speed transport due to acceleration and inertia, preventing displacement or even drop. The precisely adjusted L-shaped limit rod 200 effectively resists the inertial forces generated during transport, maintaining a stable position even during complex movements such as acceleration, deceleration, or turning. This significantly reduces the risk of displacement and drop. Furthermore, it allows for quick adjustments for different models and sizes of automotive parts, eliminating the need for separate design and manufacturing of fixing devices for each part, thus significantly improving the efficiency and flexibility of the transport equipment.
[0032] Please see Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model is an automotive parts handling robot, which also includes:
[0033] The support component includes a support rod 300, a lower side plate 301, a lower rotating rod 302, a telescopic rod 303, and a hydraulic rod 304. The lower side plate 301 is fixed to the lower part of the outer surface of the base 100. The lower rotating rod 302 is disposed between the two lower side plates 301. The hydraulic rod 304 is rotatably connected to the outside of the lower rotating rod 302. The support rod 300 is provided with the top end of the hydraulic rod 304, and the telescopic rod 303 is disposed with the top end of the support rod 300.
[0034] The bottom of the L-shaped limiting rod 200 is provided with an upper side plate 306, and an upper rotating rod 305 is provided between the two upper side plates 306. The telescopic rod 303 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the upper rotating rod 305.
[0035] Working principle: When the L-shaped limiting rod is positioned according to the size of the automotive component, the synchronous operation of the hydraulic rod 304 demonstrates a strong synergistic effect. Leveraging its power transmission characteristics, the hydraulic rod 304 can quickly drive the telescopic rod 303 to extend smoothly within the support rod 300, constructing a stable support frame 209 structure for the L-shaped limiting rod. Whether facing the wide limiting distance required for large automotive components or the narrow positioning of small precision components, the hydraulic rod 304 can adjust the extension length of the telescopic rod 303 in real time, ensuring that the L-shaped limiting rod receives solid support in any position, preventing insufficient support from causing the limiting rod to wobble and thus affecting the fixing effect on the automotive component.
[0036] In summary, the technical solution provided by this utility model makes up for the shortcomings of the prior art, successfully completes the invention task, and faithfully realizes the technical effects described by the applicant in the above technical effect column.
