AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing end-effectors struggle to ensure a secure grip while preventing food from being squeezed, deformed, or damaged, especially for soft and easily broken ball-shaped foods.

Method used

A pellet-shaped food gripper assembly was designed, including first and second pellet-shaped food grippers. The gripping surface is provided with a concave structure, especially a V-shaped concave structure, to form a positioning cavity. Combined with the arc structure, the gripping pressure is dispersed and the gripping stability is enhanced.

Benefits of technology

It effectively prevents the squeezing and damage of pellet-shaped foods during the clamping process, improves the stability and reliability of clamping, adapts to the clamping of pellets of different shapes and sizes, and provides a reliable clamping basis for automated production.
