Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of work platforms, and in particular to a robotic arm work platform. Background Technology

[0002] A robotic arm is an automated operating device that can mimic certain movements of a human hand and arm to grasp, move objects, or manipulate tools according to a fixed program. Robotic arms require a worktable for operation; however, since they can only process workpieces in fixed positions, the workpieces on the worktable must be unloaded and reloaded after each processing cycle, significantly impacting the robotic arm's processing efficiency. To address these problems, we propose a robotic arm work platform. Utility Model Content

[0005] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting up cylinders, movable plates, movable tables, processing table one, and processing table two, a dual-station configuration on both sides can be implemented, allowing for alternating processing of the positions of processing table one and processing table two. When processing table one is processing, processing table two can process unprocessed workpieces and load unprocessed workpieces; conversely, when processing table two is processing, processing table one can process unprocessed workpieces and load unprocessed workpieces. By setting up motors, gears, bottom support plates, and toothed plates, the support platform and its top processing tables one and two can be driven to different heights, making the work platform adaptable to robotic arms of different heights; it offers flexibility and strong practicality.

[0006] The present invention is further configured such that: a guide plate is slidably connected inside the bottom support plate, and a bottom plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the guide plate.

[0009] The above technical solution uses a base plate to support the bracket that holds the motor in place.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: a guide groove is provided inside the connecting platform, and the movable plate slides inside the guide groove.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide groove facilitates the sliding of the movable plate inside the connecting platform.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that: the bottom of the support platform is fixedly connected to two side plates, and the top of the base plate is fixedly connected to two connecting plates.

[0013] The above technical solution uses a connecting plate to support the slide groove, ensuring that the connecting plate can slide linearly inside the slide groove.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that: a groove is provided on one side of the connecting plate, and a slider that is fixedly connected to the side plate is slidably connected inside the groove.

[0015] The above technical solution uses a sliding groove and a slider to guide the vertical movement of the side plate.

[0016] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] This utility model, by setting up a cylinder, a movable plate, a movable table, a first processing table, and a second processing table, adopts a dual-station design on both sides, allowing for alternating processing of the positions of the first and second processing tables. When the first processing table is in operation, the second processing table can handle both unprocessed and unprocessed workpieces, and vice versa. This avoids downtime for loading and unloading, thus improving processing efficiency.

[0018] By incorporating motors, gears, a base plate, and toothed plates, the support platform and its two top processing tables (Table 1 and Table 2) can be driven to different heights, making the work platform adaptable to robotic arms of varying heights; it offers flexibility and strong practicality.

The cylinder 5, movable plate 4, movable table 3, processing table one 6, and processing table two 7 adopt a dual-station configuration on both sides, allowing for alternating positions of processing table one 6 and processing table two 7. While processing table one 6 is processing, processing table two 7 can process unprocessed workpieces and load unprocessed workpieces. Conversely, while processing table two 7 is processing, processing table one 6 can process unprocessed workpieces and load unprocessed workpieces. By incorporating a motor 11, gear 10, base support plate 8, and gear plate 9, the support platform 1 and its top processing tables one 6 and two 7 can be driven to different heights, making the work platform adaptable to robotic arms of varying heights. This provides flexibility and strong practicality.

[0027] Furthermore, a guide plate 12 is slidably connected inside the bottom support plate 8, and a bottom plate 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the guide plate 12.

[0028] Furthermore, the movable plate 4 has two guide rods 19 slidably connected inside, and the two ends of the guide rods 19 are fixedly connected to the two side walls of the inner cavity of the connecting platform 2 respectively.

[0029] The base plate 13 is fixedly installed on the motor 11 by a bracket. The base plate 13 is used to support the bracket that fixes the motor 11.

[0030] Furthermore, the movable platform 3 has a guide groove 14 inside, and the movable plate 4 slides inside the guide groove 14. The guide groove 14 facilitates the sliding of the movable plate 4 inside the connecting platform 2.

[0031] Furthermore, two side plates 15 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the support platform 1, and two connecting plates 16 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 13. The connecting plates 16 are used to support the slide groove 17, ensuring that the connecting plates 16 can slide linearly inside the slide groove 17.

[0032] Furthermore, a groove 17 is provided on one side of the connecting plate 16, and a slider 18 that is fixedly connected to the side plate 15 is slidably connected inside the groove 17. The groove 17 and the slider 18 are used to guide the vertical movement of the side plate 15 in a straight line.

[0033] Brief description of usage:

[0034] In use, the robotic arm is mounted on the front or back of the support platform 1, and the robotic arm's processing position needs to be located at... Figure 1 The top of the intermediate processing table 16.

[0035] Two loading and unloading stations are set on the left and right sides of the activity platform 3, respectively.

[0036] During operation, the workpiece to be processed is placed on top of both processing table 6 and processing table 7;

[0037] First, cylinder 5 starts, and its output end pushes processing table 2 7 to below the robot arm. The robot arm processes the workpiece on processing table 2 7. After processing is completed, the output end of cylinder 5 retracts, driving the movable plate 4, movable table 3, processing table 1 6 and processing table 2 7 to move. Processing table 1 6 moves towards processing table 2 7 and reaches the bottom of the robot arm. Processing table 2 7 reaches the work position, unloads the workpiece on top of processing table 2 7, and then loads the workpiece to be processed.

[0038] After the robotic arm finishes processing the workpiece on processing table 6, the output end of cylinder 5 extends, causing processing table 7 to reach the bottom of the robotic arm. At this time, processing table 6 moves to another station, unloading the processed workpiece on processing table 6 and loading the workpiece to be processed, waiting for the next processing.

[0039] As mentioned above, by repeating the actions of processing table 6 and processing table 7, the robot can process the workpiece without stopping the machine, thus improving processing efficiency.

[0040] For robot bases of different heights, the motor 11 can be started, causing its output end to drive the gear 10 to rotate counterclockwise. The counterclockwise rotation of the gear 10 drives the toothed plate 9 to lift the base plate 8, support platform 1, connecting platform 2 and movable platform 3, so that the movable platform 3 can be at different heights to adapt to the robot's work.

[0041] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.
