[0020] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-4 ,in, Figure 1This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of this utility model. Figure 2 This is a front view of the entire utility model. Figure 3 This is a sectional view of the assembly frame and locking component of this utility model. Figure 4 This is a cross-sectional view of the clamping component of this utility model.

[0022] This utility model discloses an automated production line robot for automotive and motorcycle parts, comprising a multi-axis robotic arm 101 and a clamping assembly. The clamping assembly includes a mounting frame 102, a drive unit 103, and two clamping structures 104. Each clamping structure 104 includes a guide member 105, an adjusting frame 121, an adjusting member 106, an assembly frame 107, two locking members 108, an assembly block 109, and a fixture 110. The drive unit 103 includes an electromechanical box 111, a clamping cylinder 112, and two moving blocks 113. The guide component 105 includes a guide cylinder 114 and a guide push rod 115. The adjusting component 106 includes a drive motor 116, a lead screw 117 and an adjusting block 118. The locking component 108 includes a locking screw 119 and a locking pin 120. The aforementioned solution solves the problem that existing automatic backrest unloading robots cannot be used because the clamp 110 is fixedly set on the limit push rod, resulting in low applicability.

[0023] In this specific embodiment, the multi-axis robotic arm 101 is used to control the clamping assembly to clamp and move parts on the automotive and motorcycle parts production line. The multi-axis robotic arm 101 is a prior art model called palletizing industrial robot R-1000iA / 120F.

[0024] The mounting bracket 102 is fixedly connected to the output end of the multi-axis robotic arm 101 and is located on one side of the multi-axis robotic arm 101; the drive component 103 is located on one side of the mounting bracket 102; the two clamping structures 104 are respectively located on both sides of the drive component 103; the guide component 105 is located on one side of the drive component 103; the adjusting frame 121 is fixedly connected to the guide component 105 and is located on one side of the guide component 105; the adjusting component 106 is located on one side of the adjusting frame 121; the assembly frame 107 is fixedly connected to the adjusting component 106 and is located on one side of the assembly frame 107; the two locking components 108 are respectively located on both sides of the assembly frame 107; the assembly block 109 is located inside the adjusting frame 121; the clamp 110 is fixedly connected to the assembly block 109 and is located on one side of the assembly block 109. During offline operations of automotive and motorcycle parts, according to the current production... The specific shape and size of the production line transport parts are determined. A suitable clamp 110 is selected and inserted into the assembly frame 107 via the assembly block 109. Then, the locking elements 108 on both sides of the assembly frame 107 are used to fix the assembly block 109. Next, the adjusting element 106 within the adjusting frame 121 is controlled according to the clamping situation to adjust the position of the assembly block 109 and the assembled clamp 110. Then, the multi-axis robotic arm 101 controls the movement of the mounting frame 102 above the parts on the production line. The drive element 103 drives the two clamps 110 to clamp the automotive parts. Subsequently, the parts are moved from the production line under the control of the multi-axis robotic arm 101. This solves the problem of low applicability in existing automatic backrest unloading robots, where the clamp 110 is fixed on the limit push rod, making it impossible to change different models of clamps 110 according to different parts to be unloaded.

[0025] Secondly, the electromechanical box 111 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 102 and is located on one side of the mounting bracket 102; the clamping cylinder 112 is fixedly connected to the electromechanical box 111 and is located inside the electromechanical box 111; the two moving blocks 113 are respectively fixedly connected to the output end of the clamping cylinder 112 and respectively fixedly connected to the two guide members 105, and are respectively located on both sides of the clamping cylinder 112. The electromechanical box 111 is used to support the assembly of the clamping cylinder 112, and the clamping cylinder 112 is used to control the guide members 105 to drive the clamp 110 on the assembly frame 107 to move horizontally, and then clamp the automotive parts.

[0026] Furthermore, the guide cylinder 114 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 102 and located on one side of the mounting bracket 102; the guide push rod 115 is fixedly connected to the moving block 113 and the adjusting frame 121, and then slidably connected to the guide cylinder 114 and located on one side of the moving block 113. The guide cylinder 114 is used to support the sliding of the guide push rod 115. The guide push rod 115 is used to be driven to move horizontally by the moving block 113 controlled by the clamping cylinder 112, and then the clamp 110 is adjusted to clamp the automotive parts for moving.

[0027] In addition, the drive motor 116 is fixedly connected to the adjustment frame 121 and located on one side of the adjustment frame 121; the lead screw 117 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 116 and located on one side of the lead screw 117; the adjustment block 118 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 117 and slidably connected to the adjustment frame 121 and located on one side of the lead screw 117, controlling the drive motor 116 to drive the lead screw 117 to rotate, and the rotation of the lead screw 117 causes the adjustment block 118 to slide within the adjustment frame 121, adjusting the up and down position of the clamp 110.

[0028] Furthermore, the locking screw 119 is threadedly connected to the assembly frame 107 and is located on one side of the assembly frame 107; the locking pin 120 is fixedly connected to the locking screw 119 and is located on one side of the locking screw 119. When the assembly block 109 on the fixture 110 is inserted into the assembly frame 107, the locking screw 119 is twisted to drive the locking pin 120 into the assembly block 109, thus completing the assembly of the fixture 110.

[0029] When using this utility model, based on the specific shape and size of the transport parts on the current production line, a suitable size clamp 110 is selected and inserted into the assembly frame 107 via the assembly block 109. Twisting the locking screw 119 causes the locking pin 120 to insert into the assembly block 109, completing the assembly of the clamp 110. Then, based on the clamping situation, the drive motor 116 is controlled to drive the lead screw 117 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 117 causes the adjusting block 118 to slide within the adjusting frame 121, adjusting the position of the assembly block 109 and the assembled clamp 110. The multi-axis robotic arm 101 then controls the mounting frame 102 to move above the parts on the production line. It controls the clamping cylinder 112 in the electromechanical box 111 to drive the two moving blocks 113 to drive the two guide push rods 115 respectively, so that the two clamps 110 clamp the automotive parts. Then, the parts are moved from the production line by the control of the multi-axis robotic arm 101. This solves the problem of low applicability of existing automatic backrest unloading robots, where the clamps 110 are fixed on the limit push rods and therefore cannot be replaced with different models of clamps 110 according to different parts to be unloaded.

[0030] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely one or more preferred embodiments of this application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this application. Those skilled in the art can understand that all or part of the processes for implementing the above embodiments and equivalent changes made in accordance with the claims of this application still fall within the scope of this application.
