Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bearing manufacturing technology, specifically to a positioning and adjustment device for a robotic arm control box. Background Technology

[0002] In the bearing manufacturing process, gear blanks undergo multiple processes including upsetting, forming, and piercing. Due to the high temperature of the blanks, a V-shaped robotic gripper, consisting of two jaws and a control mechanism, is typically used to hold the blanks and precisely transfer them to the appropriate upsetting, forming, or piercing molds. The blanks are then processed using a press. However, when producing bearings of different specifications, it is necessary to change to suitable molds. In this process, the robotic gripper often hinders mold changes, necessitating adjustments to the position of the V-shaped robotic gripper.

[0003] In the current production situation, common positioning methods have many drawbacks. One method is to use positioning pins and cylinders to coordinate the positioning of V-shaped robotic grippers. When the gripper needs to be moved, the cylinder must first be controlled to push out the positioning pin, and then another cylinder is used to pull the gripper. This method not only requires a large number of cylinders and occupies a large space, but also leads to a significant increase in maintenance costs and a decrease in the overall efficiency of the equipment.

[0004] Another method is to use screws to fix the control box of the V-shaped robot to the base, and remove the screws when movement is needed. However, this method has the drawbacks of being cumbersome and time-consuming to remove the screws, which reduces the continuity of the production rhythm. Furthermore, frequent screw removal can cause thread wear, affecting the stability and accuracy of the fixation. Over time, this may lead to deviations in the installation position of the control box, affecting the positioning accuracy of the robot's gripper, and thus adversely affecting the accuracy and quality of the entire production process. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a positioning and adjustment device for a robotic arm control box, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the existing method of using positioning pins and cylinders for collaborative positioning, which involves a large number of cylinders, occupies a large space, increases maintenance costs, reduces the overall efficiency of the equipment, and the method of fixing the control box to the base with screws, which affects the positioning accuracy of the robotic arm gripper and the precision and quality of production and processing.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a positioning and adjustment device for a robotic arm control box, comprising a base plate, a robotic arm control box disposed on the base plate, and a positioning and adjustment mechanism disposed on the base plate and acting on the robotic arm control box, characterized in that the positioning and adjustment mechanism comprises an L-shaped support frame, a first sliding rod, a positioning frame, and a sliding sleeve; the L-shaped support frame is disposed on one side of the base plate, the first sliding rod is disposed on the robotic arm control box and slides in cooperation with the vertical side of the L-shaped support frame, the sliding sleeve is slidably disposed on the horizontal side of the L-shaped support frame, one end of the positioning frame is vertically slidably disposed on the sliding sleeve, the bottom of the robotic arm control box slides in cooperation with the base plate, symmetrical positioning holes are provided on both the bottom of the robotic arm control box and the base plate, and the positioning frame is provided with a positioning rod adapted to the positioning holes.

[0007] Furthermore, a first spring is fitted onto the first slide bar, and the two ends of the first spring are respectively connected to one side of the robot control box and the vertical side of the L-shaped support frame.

[0008] Furthermore, a second slide rod extends downward from the bottom of one side of the positioning frame, and the second slide rod slides vertically with the slide sleeve. A second spring is sleeved on the second slide rod and is connected to the positioning frame and the slide sleeve respectively.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0010] 1. Easy to adjust the position of the control box: When changing molds, the position of the positioning robot control box can be adjusted to adapt to the changing needs of molds of different specifications.

[0011] 2. Simple and efficient operation: During adjustment, the positioning rod is moved out of the positioning hole by lifting the positioning frame. Under the action of the first spring, the robot control box is moved. There is no need to use multiple cylinders or frequently disassemble screws, making operation simpler, saving time, and improving the continuity of production rhythm.

[0012] 3. Precise and stable positioning: During positioning, the first sliding rod is pushed to align the positioning hole on the control box with the positioning hole on the base plate. Under the action of the second spring, the positioning rod is reinserted into the positioning hole. At this time, both the first and second springs are extended, working together with the positioning rod to precisely position the robot control box on the base plate. This avoids thread wear and positioning deviation caused by frequent disassembly, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the control box installation position. In turn, it ensures the positioning accuracy of the robot gripper, improving the precision and quality of the entire production process.

[0013] 4. Saves space and cost: Compared with the method of using positioning pins and cylinders for positioning, this utility model reduces the number of cylinders used, occupies less space, reduces maintenance costs, and improves the overall efficiency of equipment use.

[0019] Please see Figures 1-3A positioning and adjustment device for a robotic arm control box is disclosed. A positioning and adjustment mechanism 3, mounted on a base plate 1 and acting on a robotic arm control box 2, adjusts the relative position between the base plate 1 and the robotic arm control box 2 mounted on the base plate 1. This facilitates the movement of the gripper 11 and the replacement of molds 12 of different sizes. The positioning and adjustment mechanism 3 includes an L-shaped support frame 4, a first sliding rod 5, a positioning frame 6, and a sliding sleeve 13. The L-shaped support frame 4 is positioned on one side of the base plate 1, and the first sliding rod 5 is positioned on the robotic arm control box 2, such that the first sliding rod 5 is aligned with the L-shaped support frame 4. A first spring 8 is fitted onto the first slide rod 5, with its two ends connected to one side of the robot control box 2 and the vertical side of the L-shaped support frame 4, respectively. Then, the bottom of one side of the positioning frame 6 extends downward to form a second slide rod 9. The second slide rod 9 slides vertically with the sliding sleeve 13, and the sliding sleeve 13 slides horizontally with the L-shaped support frame 4. A second spring 10 is fitted onto the second slide rod 9, connected to both the positioning frame 6 and the sliding sleeve 13. The bottom of the robot control box 2 slides with the base plate 1, and the bottom of the robot control box 2... Symmetrical positioning holes are provided on both the main body and the base plate 1. When adjusting the position of the robot control box 2, in the initial state, the positioning rod 7 on the positioning frame 6, which is adapted to the positioning hole, is inserted into the corresponding positioning hole. Under the tension of the first spring 8 and the lifting action of the second spring 10, the position of the robot control box 2 on the base plate 1 is positioned. When it is necessary to change the mold 12 and move the position of the robot control box 2, the handle on one side of the positioning frame 6 is pulled up, so that the positioning rod 7 is pulled out from the positioning hole, the robot control box 2 is unrestrained, and the first spring 8 retracts. The robot control box 2, positioning frame 6, and sliding sleeve 13 move together, causing the gripper 11 to be misaligned with the mold 12, so that the operator can replace the mold 12. After the replacement is completed, push the push handle at the end of the first sliding rod 5, stretch the first spring 8, and move the robot control box 2, positioning frame 6, and sliding sleeve 13 in the opposite direction until the bottom of the robot control box 2 is aligned with the positioning hole on the base plate 1. At this time, the positioning rod 7 is no longer obstructed, the second spring 10 extends, and the positioning rod 7 is reinserted into the positioning hole, completing the positioning work of the robot control box 2.

[0020] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When it is necessary to replace the mold 12 and move the position of the robot control box 2, the positioning frame 6 is lifted, so that the positioning rod 7 located at the bottom of the positioning frame 6 is pulled out from the positioning hole. The robot control box 2 is no longer restricted, the first spring 8 contracts and drives the robot control box 2 to move, which in turn drives the gripper 11 located on the other side of the robot control box 2 to move, so that the gripper 11 is displaced from the mold 12, so that the operator can replace the mold 12.

[0021] After the replacement is completed, push the push handle at the end of the first slide bar 5 to stretch the first spring 8 until the robot control box 2 moves to the point where the positioning hole at its bottom is aligned with the positioning hole on the base plate 1. Then the second spring 10 extends and re-inserts the positioning rod 7 into the positioning hole, thus completing the positioning of the robot control box 2.
