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.
[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, a folding robotic arm structure for spraying a wet machine includes a body 1 and a base 2 disposed above the body 1. A rotating seat 3 is fixed to the top of the base 2, and a first robotic arm 4 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating seat 3. Two symmetrical hydraulic rods 5 are fixed between the base 2 and the first robotic arm 4. The body 1 is part of the spraying wet machine body. The base 2 is disposed above the body 1, and the rotating seat 3 is fixed on the base 2. The first robotic arm 4 can be rotated by the rotating seat 3. The rotating seat 3 is configured as two pieces, mirror-fixed to the top of the base 2. The hydraulic rods 5 are fixed between the base 2 and the first robotic arm 4. The first robotic arm 4 can be moved by the power of the hydraulic rods 5. While the first robotic arm 4 moves, it will rotate on the inner wall of the rotating seat 3. The hydraulic rods 5 generate high-pressure liquid through mechanical movement by a hydraulic pump, and then deliver it to the hydraulic cylinder through a pipeline. The piston in the hydraulic cylinder is subjected to the liquid pressure, generating a pushing force, thereby driving the mechanical equipment to move. This technology is common knowledge to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.
[0027] A first rotating mechanism 6, installed inside the body 1, is used to drive the first robotic arm 4 to rotate. This mechanism facilitates omnidirectional rotation of the first robotic arm 4. The first rotating mechanism 6 includes a first motor 61 fixed to the inner wall of the body 1, with a first rotating shaft 62 fixed to the output end of the motor 61. The first rotating shaft 62 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the body 1. A first rotating plate 63 is fixed to the top of the first rotating shaft 62 and bolted to the bottom of the base 2. A first limiting groove 64 is formed on the top of the body 1, with a first limiting ring 65 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the first limiting groove 64. The first limiting ring 65 is fixed to the first rotating plate. The bottom of 63; by installing a first motor 61 inside the body 1, the first rotating shaft 62 can be driven to rotate. When the first rotating shaft 62 rotates, it can drive the first rotating plate 63 fixed on its top to rotate. Since the first rotating plate 63 and the base 2 are fixed together by multiple bolts, when the first rotating plate 63 rotates, it can drive the base 2 to rotate. By opening a first limiting groove 64 on the top of the body 1 and fixing a first limiting ring 65 at the bottom of the first rotating plate 63, when the first rotating plate 63 rotates, the first limiting ring 65 rotates in the first limiting groove 64, which can improve the stability of the rotation of the first rotating plate 63. The size of the first limiting ring 65 is adapted to the inner diameter of the first limiting groove 64.
[0028] A second robotic arm 7 is positioned above the first robotic arm 4. A second rotating mechanism 8 is provided between the first robotic arm 4 and the second robotic arm 7 to drive the second robotic arm 7 to rotate. By setting the first robotic arm 4, the construction range of the sprayer can be expanded, and the practicality of the sprayer can be improved. By setting the second rotating mechanism 8, it is easy to drive the second robotic arm 7 to rotate in all directions. The second rotating mechanism 8 includes a drive box 81 fixed to one end of the first robotic arm 4. A second motor 82 is fixed to the inner wall of the drive box 81. A second rotating shaft 83 is fixed to the output end of the second motor 82. The second rotating shaft 83 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the drive box 81. A second rotating plate 84 is fixed to the top of the second rotating shaft 83. A second limiting groove 85 is opened on the top of the drive box 81. A second limiting ring 86 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the second limiting groove 85. The second limiting ring 86 is fixed to the bottom of the second rotating plate 84. A column 87 is fixed to the top of the second rotating plate 84, and the column 87 is fixed to the bottom of the second robotic arm 7. The first robotic arm 4 can be connected by a drive box 81, and a second motor 82 can be installed inside it. The second motor 82 can drive the second rotating shaft 83 to rotate. When the second rotating shaft 83 rotates, it can drive the second rotating plate 84 fixed to its top to rotate, and then drive the column 87 fixed to its top to rotate. Since the column 87 is fixed to the bottom of the second robotic arm 7, the second robotic arm 7 will rotate synchronously when the second rotating plate 84 rotates. By opening a second limiting groove 85 on the top of the drive box 81 and fixing a second limiting ring 86 at the bottom of the second rotating plate 84, the second limiting ring 86 can rotate in the second limiting groove 85 when the second rotating plate 84 rotates, which can improve the stability of the rotation of the second rotating plate 84. The size of the second limiting ring 86 is adapted to the inner diameter of the second limiting groove 85.
[0029] A mounting base 9 is detachably mounted on one end of the second robotic arm 7. A connecting rod 10 is fixed to the outside of the mounting base 9, and an elastic retaining ring 11 is fixed to the bottom end of the connecting rod 10. A spray gun 12 is disposed on the inside of the elastic retaining ring 11. An electrical box 13 is fixed to the outside of the base 2, and a junction box 14 is fixed to the outside of the first robotic arm 4. The spray gun 12 can be installed by setting the mounting base 9 at one end of the second robotic arm 7. Two connecting rods 10 are fixed to the outside of the mounting base 9, and an elastic retaining ring 11 is fixed to the bottom end of the connecting rod 10. The inner diameter of the retaining ring 11 is adapted to the size of the spray gun 12. After the spray gun 12 is inserted into the elastic retaining ring 11, the bottom of the elastic retaining ring 11 can be sealed with bolts to clamp the spray gun 12, thereby improving the stability of the spray gun 12 installation. By setting up the spray gun 12, wet spraying can be performed. One end of the spray gun 12 is connected to a pipe for conveying slurry. By setting up the electrical box 13 and the junction box 14, the power lines used by the two sets of robotic arms, the two sets of rotating mechanisms and the spray gun 12 can be centralized to avoid messy wiring and affect the use of the robotic arms.
[0030] Working principle: The operator operates the spraying machine. When the spraying machine is in use, the first robotic arm 4 can be moved by the hydraulic rod 5 to adjust the overall height of the robotic arm. When the hydraulic rod 5 is retracted, the first robotic arm 4 can be folded. While the first robotic arm 4 is moving, it will rotate on the inner wall of the rotating seat 3 on the base 2. When it is necessary to adjust the direction of the robotic arm, the first robotic arm 4 and the second robotic arm 7 can be rotated as a whole by the first rotating mechanism 6. If it is necessary to rotate the second robotic arm 7, it can be driven by the second rotating mechanism 8. When spraying is working, the spray gun 12 installed on the mounting seat 9 at one end of the second robotic arm 7 is working. One end of the spray gun 12 is connected to a pipe for conveying slurry.
