Technical fields:

[0001] This utility model relates to a novel rotating structure for a telescopic robotic arm, belonging to the technical field of mechanical automation equipment. Background technology:

[0002] In the processing flow of thermos cup factories, the transfer of materials between workstations has long relied on manual operation. Manual transportation has significant drawbacks: first, the labor cost is high, which puts a heavy burden on the company's operations; second, it is impossible to achieve 24-hour continuous operation, which restricts the improvement of production efficiency and makes it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale and high-efficiency production. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automated robotic arm to optimize this process. Utility model content:

[0003] To address the above problems, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a novel rotating structure for a telescopic robotic arm.

[0004] This utility model discloses a novel telescopic manipulator rotating structure, comprising a lifting main rod, a lifting seat, a lifting motor, a rotatable seat, a first positioning plate, a rotary motor, a rotatable upper plate, a front and rear push cylinder, a second positioning plate, and a manipulator. The lifting main rod is a rectangular rod with several lifting rails on its side. The lifting seat is fitted onto the lifting main rod, and its inner wall of the square hole is provided with several lifting rails. The lifting rails are engaged within the lifting rails. A lifting motor is installed at one end of the lifting seat. A rotatable seat is located below the lifting main rod, and a first positioning plate is fixed above the rotatable seat. The first positioning plate has a connecting hole, and the rotating positioning head of the rotary motor is fixed in the connecting hole of the first positioning plate and is fixedly connected to the positioning head connecting cavity on the rotatable upper plate. A front and rear push cylinder is located below the rotatable seat, and the front end of the telescopic rod of the front and rear push cylinder is connected to the second positioning plate. The manipulator is fixed on the second positioning plate.

[0005] Preferably, the robotic arm consists of an opening / closing cylinder, a telescopic rod, an arm, a positioning seat, and an arc-shaped clamping plate. Telescopic rods are provided at both ends of the opening / closing cylinder, and an arm is fixed to each telescopic rod.

This facilitates quick replacement of the arc-shaped clamping plate, adapting to different cup sizes. The extension and retraction of the cylinder telescopic rods completes the grasping and releasing of the cup.

[0006] Preferably, the motor shaft of the lifting motor is equipped with a gear that meshes with the rack on the lifting main rod. Through gear and rack transmission, the lifting drive and stop are realized, and the lifting height of the robot is precisely controlled.

[0007] Preferably, the side of the positioning head connecting cavity is provided with a bearing sleeve connecting cavity, and the bearing sleeve connecting cavity is provided with bearing sleeve one and bearing sleeve two. The rotating positioning head is driven to rotate by a rotary motor, which drives the rotatable seat and the robot below to change direction, realizes the rotation of the left and right swing arms, and adjusts the material transfer position.

Grabbing materials: The front and rear telescopic components extend forward, the lifting component descends to the corresponding workstation height, the opening and closing component retracts, and the arc-shaped clamp grabs the thermos cup; then the lifting component rises, the rotating component rotates to adjust the direction, and the front and rear telescopic components extend backward or forward to transfer the material to the next workstation; 3. Releasing materials: The lifting component descends, the opening and closing component opens, and the thermos cup is released to the target workstation, completing one transfer.
