Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of shaft product handling equipment, and in particular relates to a handling robot module device for gripping the middle point of shaft products. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of shaft products, it is necessary to move the shaft products to different workstations to complete different processing steps. Usually, robotic arms are used to move them to three to five workstations, such as trimming, grinding, straightening, etc.

[0003] In existing technologies, there are two clamping methods for handling shafts: clamping at both ends. However, these methods are not suitable for different workstation settings. Instead, a method that grasps the middle point is required for handling. This method often results in a shift in the center of gravity, which can cause the shaft to tilt during handling, fall off, damage the shaft, or scratch its surface. This can affect the next process and ultimately the quality of the shaft processing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model embodiment is to provide a handling robot module device for gripping the middle point of shaft products, which can stably hold the middle point for normal handling and ensure the quality of shaft product processing.

[0005] The present invention is implemented as follows:

[0006] A handling robot module device for grasping the midpoint of shaft-type products includes an X-axis motion module, an X-axis motor, a Y-axis motion module, and a Y-axis motor. The X-axis motor is drivenly connected to the X-axis motion module, and the Y-axis motor is drivenly connected to the Y-axis motion module. The Y-axis motion module is mounted on the X-axis motion module. The device also includes:

[0007] The clamping mechanism includes a clamp cylinder, a single-sided double-headed clamp, and a single-sided single-headed clamp. The single-sided double-headed clamp and the single-sided single-headed clamp are respectively connected to the clamp cylinder, which is mounted on the Y-axis motion module. The lower ends of the single-sided double-headed clamp and the single-sided single-headed clamp are both L-shaped, with an arc-shaped structure on the inner side of the L-shape. The three lower ends of the single-sided double-headed clamp and the single-sided single-headed clamp are distributed as vertices of a triangle. The lower end of the L-shape has a fixed width along the axial direction of the shaft product to increase the contact point with the shaft product.

[0008] The aforementioned handling robot module device for gripping the midpoint of shaft-type products further includes a cantilever fixing plate and a bottom fixing seat. The Y-axis motion module is mounted on the cantilever fixing plate, and the bottom fixing seat is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cantilever fixing plate.

[0009] The aforementioned handling robot module device for gripping the midpoint of shaft-type products also includes left and right limit blocks, which are installed at one end of the X-axis motion module.

[0010] The aforementioned handling robot module device for gripping the midpoint of shaft-type products includes multiple clamping mechanisms arranged in parallel and fixed to the Y-axis motion module via a common connecting plate.

[0011] This utility model embodiment uses a clamping mechanism consisting of a clamp cylinder, a single-sided double-headed clamp, and a single-sided single-headed clamp to grip the middle section of shaft products. The lower end of the clamp is L-shaped, with an arc-shaped inner side, which increases the adaptability of gripping the outer periphery of the shaft. During clamping, in addition to the horizontal clamping force, there is also a supporting force at the bottom, ensuring the clamping force and stability. Increasing the fixed width of the lower end of the L-shape allows for three-point gripping of the outer periphery of the shaft product, increasing the contact surface and ensuring the stability and balance of the gripping. At the same time, increasing the contact surface helps to reduce damage to the surface of the shaft product during gripping, improves the convenience of shaft product relocation, and ensures the processing quality of the shaft product.

[0014] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0015] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments:

[0016] like Figure 1 As shown, a handling robot module device for gripping the midpoint of shaft-type products includes an X-axis motion module 9, an X-axis motor 3, a Y-axis motion module 4, and a Y-axis motor 1. The X-axis motor is driven by the X-axis motion module, and the Y-axis motor is driven by the Y-axis motion module. The Y-axis motion module is mounted on the X-axis motion module. The device also includes:

[0017] The clamping mechanism includes a clamp cylinder 5, a single-sided double-headed clamp 6, and a single-sided single-headed clamp 7. The single-sided double-headed clamp and the single-sided single-headed clamp are respectively connected to the clamp cylinder, which is mounted on the Y-axis motion module. The lower ends of the single-sided double-headed clamp and the single-sided single-headed clamp are both L-shaped, with an arc-shaped structure on the inner side of the L-shape. The three lower ends of the single-sided double-headed clamp and the single-sided single-headed clamp are distributed as vertices of a triangle. The lower end of the L-shape has a fixed width along the axial direction of the shaft product to increase the contact point with the shaft product.

[0018] The aforementioned handling robot module device for gripping the midpoint of shaft products further includes a cantilever fixing plate 2 and a bottom fixing seat 8. The Y-axis motion module is mounted on the cantilever fixing plate, and the bottom fixing seat is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cantilever fixing plate.

[0019] The aforementioned handling robot module device for gripping the midpoint of shaft-type products further includes left and right limit blocks 10, which are installed at one end of the X-axis motion module.

[0020] The aforementioned handling robot module device for gripping the midpoint of shaft-type products includes multiple clamping mechanisms arranged in parallel and fixed to the Y-axis motion module via a common connecting plate.

[0021] When handling shaft products, the clamping mechanism is moved to the storage position of the shaft product by controlling the X-axis motion module and the Y-axis motion module, and the clamping mechanism is moved downward. The clamp cylinder extends to open the single-sided double-headed clamp 6 and the single-sided single-headed clamp 7. When the shaft product is in the gripping space, the clamp cylinder retracts, causing the single-sided double-headed clamp 6 and the single-sided single-headed clamp 7 to move relative to each other to clamp the shaft product. The clamping mechanism is moved to the position where the shaft product is moved by the X-axis motion module and the Y-axis motion module. The clamp cylinder is then controlled to extend, and the single-sided double-headed clamp 6 and the single-sided single-headed clamp 7 move in opposite directions to release the shaft product, completing a complete gripping process. This process can be repeated to repeatedly grip and move shaft products. The left and right limit blocks 10 are used to limit the movement position of the Y-axis motion module to ensure that the clamping mechanism is within its movable range. By employing a single-sided double-headed clamp 6 and a single-sided single-headed clamp 7, the device effectively grips shaft products while maintaining balance. The clamping mechanism has three contact surfaces that interact with the outer diameter of the shaft products. The L-shaped inner side has an arc-shaped structure, which increases the adaptability of gripping the outer periphery of the shaft, enhances gripping stability, ensures smooth movement of shaft products during production, and improves production efficiency.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
