Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of handling structures, specifically a robotic arm for handling vacuum gauge sensing components. Background Technology
[0002] Vacuum gauge sensing components, also known as vacuum tubes or electron tubes, are used in electronic components to amplify signals or control switches by utilizing the flow of electrons in a vacuum. During manufacturing, safety must be ensured; safety primarily involves preventing electrical conduction to avoid damaging the vacuum tube with current. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a robotic arm for handling vacuum gauge sensing components, in order to solve the problem of high defect rate in the existing vacuum tube handling process.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a robotic arm for handling vacuum gauge sensing components, comprising:
[0005] The base plate has a control panel and an operator mounted on it.
[0006] The first servo motor has a rotating disc on its upper part;
[0007] The first rocker arm is hinged to the rotating disk, and the second servo motor is mounted on the first rocker arm.
[0008] The second rocker arm is hinged to the first rocker arm, and a third servo is provided at the hinge point;
[0009] The claw is located at the end of the second rocker arm.
[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution:
[0011] The base plate, the first rocker arm, the second rocker arm, and the claw are all made of non-metallic materials.
[0012] The claw includes a support plate, a toothed swing arm, a clamping arm, and a connecting arm. The toothed swing arm is rotatably mounted on the support plate, and the two toothed swing arms mesh with each other. One of the toothed swing arms is connected to a fourth servo motor. One end of the connecting arm is hinged to the support plate, and the other end of the connecting arm is hinged to the clamping arm. The toothed swing arm and the clamping arm are hinged together.
[0013] The support plate, toothed swing arm, clamping arm, and connecting arm are all made of non-metallic materials.
[0014] The edge of the clamping arm is provided with an elastic covering layer.
[0015] The first rocker arm and the second rocker arm are provided with hollow structures.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] Lightweight design enhances motion performance: The base plate, first rocker arm, second rocker arm, and gripper are all made of non-metallic materials (mainly wood), significantly reducing the overall weight of the robotic arm. The hollowed-out structure on the first and second rocker arms further reduces weight while ensuring necessary strength through structural design. This lightweight design reduces the load on the servo motors, allowing the robotic arm to move faster and more flexibly, reducing energy consumption and improving work efficiency and response speed.
[0018] High cost-effectiveness: Using non-metallic materials such as wood is cheaper than metals (such as aluminum alloys and steel), and the processing is relatively simple, which can reduce the manufacturing cost of the robotic arm and make it more economical, especially suitable for applications with limited budgets or cost sensitivity.
[0019] Antistatic properties and adaptability to specific environments: Non-metallic materials generally have good insulation and antistatic properties, which can effectively prevent electrostatic damage and improve operational safety when handling components that are sensitive to static electricity (such as vacuum gauge sensing components).
[0020] Protecting the items being handled: The elastic covering layer, such as silicone, on the edge of the gripper arm effectively prevents scratches or damage to the precision and fragile vacuum gauge sensing components during gripping and handling, improving the precision and safety of the operation.
[0021] Stability and flexibility of structural connections: By adopting a variety of non-metallic connection methods such as mortise and tenon joints, snap-fit joints, and screw connections, combined with the characteristics of wood, the structure can be guaranteed to be stable and is easier to disassemble, repair and adjust than metal connection methods such as welding.
