When the switch of the first motor 203 is turned on, the output end of the first motor 203 drives the first threaded rod 204 to rotate.

[0026] A first sliding rod 205 is fixedly connected inside the first mounting groove 201. A rack 206 is slidably connected to the first sliding rod 205, and the rack 206 is threadedly connected to a first threaded rod 204. The rotation of the first threaded rod 204 drives the rack 206 to move on the first sliding rod 205.

[0027] A rotating shaft 104 is rotatably connected to the support platform 103. A transmission gear 106 is fixedly connected to one end surface of the rotating shaft 104, which passes through the support platform 103. The transmission gear 106 meshes with a rack 206. A connecting plate 105 is fixedly connected to one end surface of the rotating shaft 104. The movement of the rack 206 drives the transmission gear 106 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 104 to rotate. The rotating shaft 104 then drives the connecting plate 105 to move synchronously.

[0028] The lifting assembly 300 includes a support frame 301. One end surface of the support frame 301 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the connecting plate 105. A second mounting frame 302 is fixedly connected to one end surface of the support frame 301. A second motor 303 is fixedly connected inside the second mounting frame 302. A second threaded rod 304 is rotatably connected inside the support frame 301. One end surface of the second threaded rod 304 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 303.

[0029] A second sliding rod 305 is fixedly connected inside the support frame 301. A lifting plate 306 is slidably connected to the second sliding rod 305. The lifting plate 306 is threadedly connected to a second threaded rod 304. The rotation of the second threaded rod 304 drives the lifting plate 306 to move on the second sliding rod 305.

[0030] The movable component 400 includes a second mounting groove 401, one side surface of which is fixedly connected to one side surface of the lifting plate 306. A third mounting frame 402 is fixedly connected to one end surface of the second mounting groove 401. A third motor 403 is fixedly connected inside the third mounting frame 402. A third threaded rod 404 is rotatably connected inside the second mounting groove 401. One end surface of the third threaded rod 404 is fixedly connected to the output end of the third motor 403. When the lifting plate 306 moves, it causes the second mounting groove 401 to move synchronously. When the switch of the third motor 403 is turned on, the output end of the third motor 403 drives the third threaded rod 404 to rotate.

[0031] A third sliding rod 405 is fixedly connected inside the second mounting slot 401. A moving block 406 is slidably connected to the third sliding rod 405.

The rotation of the third threaded rod 404 drives the moving block 406 to move on the third sliding rod 405. The movement of the moving block 406 causes the robotic arm 107 to move synchronously.

[0032] According to the above working process, when the robotic arm 107 needs to feed glass, the operator first moves the device to the designated position using the handle 102 driven by the casters 101. Then, the device is locked using the casters 101. Next, the switch of the second motor 303 is turned on, and the output of the second motor 303 drives the second threaded rod 304 to rotate. The rotation of the second threaded rod 304 drives the lifting plate 306 to move on the second sliding rod 305. The movement of the lifting plate 306 causes the robotic arm 107 to descend and approach the glass. Then, the glass is suctioned by the vacuum suction plate 108 for feeding. When the direction of the robotic arm 107 needs to be adjusted, the operator turns on the switch of the first motor 203, and the output of the first motor 203 drives the first threaded rod 204 to rotate. The drive mechanism moves the rack 206 on the first sliding rod 205. The movement of the rack 206 drives the transmission gear 106 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 104 to rotate. The rotating shaft 104 then drives the connecting plate 105 to rotate synchronously, thereby adjusting the direction of the robotic arm 107. When it is necessary to adjust the lateral position of the robotic arm 107, the operator turns on the switch of the third motor 403. The output end of the third motor 403 drives the third threaded rod 404 to rotate. The rotation of the third threaded rod 404 drives the moving block 406 to move on the third sliding rod 405. The movement of the moving block 406 moves the robotic arm 107 synchronously, thereby adjusting the lateral position of the robotic arm 107. This meets the needs of the operator, improves the efficiency of glass feeding, has a high degree of automation, reduces labor, and greatly improves the practicality of the equipment.
