Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of equipment dust prevention technology, and in particular to a dust prevention device. Background Technology

[0003] Meanwhile, two robotic grippers are set up side by side, and the current dustproof devices are insufficient to meet the dustproof requirements of both robotic grippers at the same time. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application aims to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this application proposes a dustproof device that can cover the top of the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper by rotating a first dustproof cover and a second dustproof cover.

[0005] According to a first aspect embodiment of the present application, the dustproof device includes a first dustproof component, a second dustproof component, and a drive component. The device includes a first dustproof cover plate and a second dustproof cover plate. The second dustproof component is connected to the first dustproof component via a transmission component. The drive component drives the first dustproof component and the second dustproof component to rotate synchronously via the transmission component, such that the first dustproof cover plate covers the top of a first robot gripper, and the second dustproof cover plate covers the top of a second robot gripper.

[0006] The dustproof device according to the embodiments of this application has at least the following beneficial effects: the drive component drives the first dustproof component and the second dustproof component to rotate synchronously through the transmission component. When the first dustproof cover and the second dustproof cover cover the top of the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper by rotating, the first dustproof cover and the second dustproof cover can prevent dust in the production workshop from accumulating on the robot gripper, thereby playing a dustproof role. When the first dustproof cover and the second dustproof cover cover rotate to avoid the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper, the robot gripper can be used normally and it is also convenient to replace the robot gripper.

[0007] According to some embodiments of this application, the transmission assembly includes a flexible transmission component, a first transmission wheel disposed on the first dustproof assembly, and a second transmission wheel disposed on the second dustproof assembly. The flexible transmission component surrounds the outer side of the first transmission wheel and the second transmission wheel, and the flexible transmission component drives the first transmission wheel and the second transmission wheel to rotate synchronously by rotation.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, this application provides a dustproof device, which includes a first dustproof component, a second dustproof component, and a driving component.

[0036] The dustproof device of this application is disposed between the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper. The first dustproof component includes a first dustproof cover plate 101, and the second dustproof component includes a second dustproof cover plate 201.

[0037] Furthermore, the drive assembly is used to drive the first dustproof assembly and the second dustproof assembly to rotate synchronously, so that the first dustproof cover 101 covers the top of the first robot gripper, and the second dustproof cover 201 covers the top of the second robot gripper. At this time, the first dustproof cover 101 can block dust in the production workshop, preventing dust from falling into the first robot gripper. Similarly, the second dustproof cover 201 can also block dust in the production workshop, preventing dust from falling into the second robot gripper.

[0038] Meanwhile, under the action of the drive component, the first dust cover 101 and the second dust cover 201 can rotate synchronously to avoid the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper, ensuring the normal use of the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper, and also facilitating the replacement of the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper.

[0039] The contents of this application are described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be noted that the following description is merely illustrative and not a specific limitation of this application.

[0040] In some examples, the first dust cover 101 is formed as a plate-like structure and is horizontally positioned. It is understood that the horizontal dimension of the first dust cover 101 is larger than the horizontal dimension of the first robot gripper, so that when the first dust cover 101 covers the top of the first robot gripper, it facilitates the first dust cover 101 to provide comprehensive protection for the first robot gripper.

[0041] Furthermore, the second dust cover 201 is also formed as a plate structure and is horizontally positioned. The horizontal dimension of the second dust cover 201 is larger than the horizontal dimension of the second robot gripper. Specifically, the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper have the same structure, therefore the first dust cover 101 and the second dust cover 201 also adopt the same structure.

[0042] Meanwhile, the first dustproof component and the second dustproof component are connected by a transmission component, which ensures that the first dustproof component and the second dustproof component rotate synchronously, that is, ensures that the first dustproof cover 101 and the second dustproof cover 201 rotate synchronously. Therefore, the first dustproof component and the second dustproof component can share a single drive component, and there is no need to set separate drive components for the first dustproof component and the second dustproof component.

[0043] Specifically, the drive component drives the first dustproof component and the second dustproof component to rotate synchronously through the transmission component, thereby driving the first dustproof cover 101 and the second dustproof cover 201 to cover the top of the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper, or driving the first dustproof cover 101 and the second dustproof cover 201 to avoid the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, in some examples, the transmission assembly includes a flexible transmission component 301, a first transmission wheel 302, and a second transmission wheel 303.

[0045] The first transmission wheel 302 is disposed on the first dustproof assembly and is fixedly disposed thereon. When the first transmission wheel 302 rotates, the first transmission assembly as a whole rotates. At the same time, the second transmission wheel 303 is disposed on the second dustproof assembly and is also fixedly disposed thereon. When the second transmission wheel 303 rotates, the second transmission assembly as a whole rotates.

[0046] Furthermore, the flexible transmission component 301 surrounds the outer side of the first transmission wheel 302 and the second transmission wheel 303, and meshes with them. When the flexible transmission component 301 rotates, it drives the first transmission wheel 302 and the second transmission wheel 303 to rotate synchronously, thereby achieving synchronous rotation of the first dustproof assembly and the second dustproof assembly. It is understood that with the synchronous rotation of the first dustproof assembly and the second dustproof assembly, the first dustproof cover 101 and the second dustproof cover 201 also rotate synchronously, causing the first dustproof cover 101 and the second dustproof cover 201 to cover the top of the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper, or to avoid them.

[0047] In some examples, the flexible transmission component 301 is a belt, and the first transmission wheel 302 and the second transmission wheel 303 are pulleys. The belt is wrapped around the outside of the two pulleys, thereby driving the two pulleys to rotate synchronously.

[0048] Specifically, the flexible transmission component 301 uses a synchronous belt, and the first transmission wheel 302 and the second transmission wheel 303 use synchronous pulleys. It is understood that the synchronous belt and pulleys maintain mutual meshing.

[0049] In some examples, the flexible transmission component 301 uses a chain, and the first transmission wheel 302 and the second transmission wheel 303 use sprockets. The chain wraps around the outside of the two sprockets, thereby driving the two sprockets to rotate synchronously. It is understood that the sprockets and the chain remain engaged with each other.

[0050] In some examples, the first dustproof assembly further includes a first drive shaft 102, which connects the first dustproof cover 101 and the first drive wheel 302. The first drive shaft 102 is fixedly connected to the first dustproof cover 101 and also fixedly connected to the first drive wheel 302, so that the first drive wheel 302 can drive the first dustproof cover 101 to rotate when it rotates.

[0051] Similarly, the second dustproof assembly also includes a second drive shaft 202, which connects the second dustproof cover 201 and the second drive wheel 303. The second drive shaft 202 is fixedly connected to the second dustproof cover 201 and also fixedly connected to the second drive wheel 303. Therefore, when the second drive wheel 303 rotates, it can drive the second dustproof cover 201 to rotate.

[0052] Furthermore, the dustproof device also includes a support frame 501, which serves as the main support for the dustproof device of this application and maintains a constant position. It is understood that the support frame 501 is located between the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper. Additionally, the first drive shaft 102 and the second drive shaft 202 are rotatably mounted on the support frame 501.

[0053] like Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, the drive assembly includes a drive component 401 and a connecting component 402. The drive component 401 employs a structure capable of outputting linear motion; specifically, the drive component 401 is a cylinder. The drive component 401 is fixedly connected to the support frame 501.

[0054] Regarding the connecting component 402, on one hand, the connecting component 402 is fixedly connected to the output end of the driving component 401; on the other hand, the connecting component 402 is fixedly connected to a certain position of the flexible transmission component 301. Therefore, the driving component 401 can drive the flexible transmission component 301 to rotate through the connecting component 402, thereby driving the first transmission wheel 302 and the second transmission wheel 303 to rotate synchronously.

[0055] Furthermore, there is a certain gap between the first transmission wheel 302 and the second transmission wheel 303, and the connecting member 402 is connected to the flexible transmission member 301 on one side between the first transmission wheel 302 and the second transmission wheel 303, that is, the connecting member 402 is located between the first transmission wheel 302 and the second transmission wheel 303. It can be understood that when the connecting member 402 abuts against the first transmission wheel 302 or the second transmission wheel 303, the connecting member 402 reaches its movement limit position, that is, the first transmission wheel 302 and the second transmission wheel 303 define the movement limit position of the connecting member 402.

[0056] like Figure 5As shown, in some examples, the connecting member 402 includes a first extension 4021, a connecting portion 4022, and a second extension 4023. The first extension 4021 extends towards the driving member 401 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the driving member 401. Simultaneously, the second extension 4023 extends towards the flexible transmission member 301 and is fixedly connected to the flexible transmission member 301. Furthermore, the first extension 4021 and the second extension 4023 are connected as a single unit via the connecting portion 4022.

[0057] Specifically, the first extension 4021 and the connecting portion 4022 are set at an angle, and the second extension 4023 is also set at an angle to the connecting portion 4022. It can be understood that the specific shape and structure of the first extension 4021, the connecting portion 4022 and the second extension 4023 need to be set according to the specific positions of the driving component 401 and the flexible transmission component 301.

[0058] In some examples, the support frame 501 is a hollow structure, with the first drive wheel 302, the second drive wheel 303, and the drive assembly disposed in the hollow portion of the support frame 501, while the first dust cover 101 and the second dust cover 201 are disposed outside the support frame 501. Therefore, the first drive shaft 102 connecting the first drive wheel 302 and the first dust cover 101 needs to extend through the support frame 501, and similarly, the second drive shaft 202 connecting the second drive wheel 303 and the second dust cover 201 also needs to extend through the support frame 501.

[0059] Specifically, the first drive shaft 102 and the second drive shaft 202 extend out of the top wall of the support frame 501, thereby connecting the first dust cover 101 and the second dust cover 201.

[0060] In some examples, the support beam is provided with a first fixed seat 502 and a second fixed seat 503. A first bearing is installed inside the first fixed seat 502, and a first drive shaft 102 is rotatably connected to the first fixed seat 502 via the first bearing. It is understood that the first drive shaft 102 passes through the inner hole of the first bearing.

[0061] Furthermore, a second bearing is installed inside the second fixed base 503, and the second drive shaft 202 is rotatably connected to the second fixed base 503 through the second bearing. It can be understood that the second drive shaft 202 passes through the inner hole of the second bearing.

[0062] Therefore, the first drive shaft 102 and the second drive shaft 202 are rotatably mounted on the support frame 501 via the first fixed seat 502 and the second fixed seat 503.

[0063] In some examples, the height of the first dust cover 101 is greater than the height of the second dust cover 201, so the first dust cover 101 and the second dust cover 201 rotate at different heights.

[0064] It is worth noting that the dustproof device has a dustproof state and an avoidance state. When the dustproof device is in the dustproof state, the first dustproof cover 101 rotates to cover the top of the first robot gripper. Since the second dustproof cover 201 rotates synchronously with the first dustproof cover 101, the second dustproof cover 201 also rotates to cover the top of the second robot gripper. At this time, the dustproof device can simultaneously prevent dust from falling into the first robot gripper and the second robot gripper.

[0065] When the dustproof device is in the avoidance state, the first dustproof cover 101 rotates to detach from the top of the first robot gripper and rotates to a position between the first and second dustproof components. Since the second dustproof cover 201 rotates synchronously with the first dustproof cover 101, the second dustproof cover 201 also rotates to the position between the first and second dustproof components. It is understood that the first dustproof cover 101 and the second dustproof cover 201 are at different heights, therefore they are stacked. At this time, the dustproof device can simultaneously avoid the first and second robot grippers, facilitating their normal use and replacement.

[0066] The embodiments of this application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application. Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.
