[0018] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 2 In the first aspect, this utility model provides a pulley manipulator gantry robot, including a support column 101, an X-axis moving mechanism, a Y-axis moving mechanism, a Z-axis moving mechanism, and a mounting plate 102;

[0020] The X-axis moving mechanism is mounted on the support column 101, the Y-axis moving mechanism is mounted on the X-axis moving mechanism, the Z-axis moving mechanism is mounted on the X-axis moving mechanism, and the mounting plate 102 is mounted on the Z-axis moving mechanism.

[0021] In this embodiment, the power transmission of the X-axis moving mechanism, the Y-axis moving mechanism, and the Z-axis moving mechanism is as follows: servo motor → reducer → gear → rack → driving the slider (mounted on the guide rail) to perform linear motion. Position control: the position of the pulley is located by radar scanning, and after calculation by the control system (such as PLC, motion controller), the XYZ coordinates are adjusted to achieve precise positioning, and the pulley robot arm is operated to grasp and move to the designated position. The supporting column 101 provides the installation conditions for the X-axis moving mechanism. The pulley robot can be installed through the mounting plate 102. In use, after the pulley position is located by radar scanning and motion data is calculated, the X-axis moving mechanism drives the Y-axis moving mechanism to move to the preset position. The Y-axis moving mechanism then drives the Z-axis moving mechanism to move, and the Z-axis moving mechanism drives the mounting plate 102 to move. The mounting plate 102 moves the pulley robot to the braking position, and the pulley robot grasps the material to achieve precise positioning. This effectively reduces the need for personnel and increases production capacity and efficiency by utilizing its high efficiency, thus solving the problem of low efficiency of traditional gantry robots.

[0022] Furthermore, the X-axis moving mechanism includes a drive component 103, a moving rod 104, a slide rail 105, and a slider 106. The drive component 103 is mounted on the support column 101, the moving rod 104 is mounted on the drive component 103, the slide rail 105 is fixedly connected to the support column 101 and located on one side of the support column 101, and the slider 106 is slidably connected to the slide rail 105 and fixedly connected to the moving rod 104.

[0023] In this embodiment, the drive component 103 can drive the moving rod 104 to move along the X-axis. The movement of the moving rod 104 can drive the Y-axis moving mechanism to move along the X-axis. The slide rail 105 provides the mounting conditions for the slider 106. When the moving rod 104 moves, it drives the slider 106 to move on the slide rail 105. The slider 106 guides and limits the moving rod 104, thereby improving the stability of the moving rod 104 during movement.

[0024] Furthermore, the Y-axis moving mechanism includes a second driving component 107, a moving frame 108, two second slide rails 109, and two second sliders 110.

[0025] In this embodiment, the second driving component 107 can drive the movable frame 108 to move along the Y-axis direction. The movement of the movable frame 108 can drive the Z-axis moving mechanism to move along the Y-axis direction. The two slide rails 109 provide installation conditions for the two sliders 110. The two sliders 110 can guide and limit the movable frame 108, thereby improving the stability of the movable frame 108 during movement.

[0026] Furthermore, the Z-axis moving mechanism includes a driving component 111, a connecting rod 112, two sliders 113, and two slide rails 114. The driving component 111 is mounted on the moving frame 108. The connecting rod 112 is mounted on the driving component 111 and connected to it, and is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 102. The two sliders 113 are fixedly connected to the moving frame 108 and are located on the moving frame 108. The two slide rails 114 are fixedly connected to the connecting rod 112 and are slidably connected to the two sliders 113.

[0027] In this embodiment, the drive component 111 can drive the connecting rod 112 to move. The movement of the connecting rod 112 can drive the pulley robot on the mounting plate 102 to move along the Z-axis. The two sliders 113 provide installation conditions for the two slide rails 114. When the connecting rod 112 moves, it drives the two slide rails 114 to slide on the two sliders 113. The two slide rails 114 guide and limit the connecting rod 112, thereby improving the stability of the moving rod 104 when it moves.
