[0015] 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.

[0016] Please see Figure 1-2This utility model provides a technical solution: an industrial automation robot arm, including a base 1, a rotating shaft 2 movably inserted into the base 1, a hinge block 4 hinged to the upper wall of the rotating shaft 2, a connecting rod 5 and a reinforcing rod 6 connected to the hinge block 4, one end of the connecting rod 5 being fixedly connected to the reinforcing rod 6, an electric rotating shaft 7 installed in one end of the connecting rod 5, an air pump 8 installed on the electric rotating shaft 7, a robot arm 9 connected to the input end of the air pump 8, a four-jaw chuck 10 fixedly installed in the robot arm 9, a cavity opened in the base 1, a motor 12 installed on the bottom surface of the cavity, a rotating rod 13 provided at the drive end of the motor 12, a first bevel gear 14 connected to one end of the rotating rod 13, a rotating rod 15 rotatably connected in the cavity, a second bevel gear 16 provided on the rotating rod 15, the first bevel gear 14 and the second bevel gear 16 meshing, and the rotating rod 15 being connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 2.

[0017] In this embodiment, the robotic arm 9 is further configured to have a camera 11 on one side, and the camera 11 contains an intelligent recognition device.

[0018] In this embodiment, the upper wall of the base 1 is provided with two pairs of sensors 3, each pair of sensors 3 is provided with a signal transmitter, and the camera 11 is provided with a signal receiver.

[0019] In this embodiment, the base 1 is further configured such that a magnetic layer is provided at the bottom.

[0020] In this embodiment, the four-jaw chuck 10 is further configured to include a pressure sensor.

[0021] Its detailed connection method is a well-known technology in this field. The following mainly introduces the working principle and process, and the specific work is as follows.

[0022] Example: This device can be used with programming. Both pairs of sensors 3 act as electrical signal transmitters, while the camera 11 is a signal receiver, enabling rapid identification of the robot arm 9's location. During transport, it quickly positions itself, and after multiple transports, it feeds back signals to the motor 12 to control the rotation angle and optimize the path. The base 1 has a magnetic layer at its bottom to enhance its fixation on the iron surface. When the motor 12 drives the rotating rod 13 to rotate, the rotating rod 13 drives the first bevel gear 14, which in turn drives the second bevel gear 16, which in turn drives the rotating rod 15 to rotate. The rotating rod 15 rotates, causing the rotating shaft 2 to rotate, and so on, driving the robot arm 9 to rotate. When the angle needs to be adjusted, the hinge position of the hinge block 4 can be adjusted, and the angle between the rotating rod 5 and the rotating shaft 2 can be changed by rotating the connecting rod 5. The electric rotating shaft 7 is used to assist in changing the angle between the air pump 8 and the connecting rod 5. After the camera 11 observes and identifies the material, the four-jaw chuck 10 approaches the material. After the air pump 8 is started, the suction cup located in the robot arm 9 is assisted by suction to achieve clamping and transportation. The bottom of the four-jaw chuck 10 has a rubber layer and a pressure sensor, which can avoid excessive clamping force and damage to the material, thus achieving transportation.

[0023] It should be noted that in this paper, relational terms such as first and second are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.
