Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of robotic arm technology, and in particular relates to a robotic arm used for demolding in the production of thermal insulation sleeves. Background Technology
[0002] Thermal insulation sleeves are sheath-shaped products used to wrap around the surface of objects, providing heat insulation, heat preservation, and protection. They are usually made of materials with good thermal insulation properties, such as ceramic fiber, glass fiber, and rock wool, and are formed into specific shapes and structures through special processing techniques. Demolding in thermal insulation sleeve production refers to the process of separating the formed thermal insulation sleeve from the mold after the thermal insulation sleeve is manufactured. This process is crucial to ensuring the quality and integrity of the thermal insulation sleeve. A robotic arm is an automated operating device that can mimic certain movements and functions of a human hand and arm, grasping, moving objects or operating tools according to a fixed program. In the thermal insulation sleeve demolding process, a robotic arm can replace manual labor to complete the demolding work, improving production efficiency and safety.
[0003] Existing robotic arms often suffer from fixed clamping angles and limited gripping capabilities when handling insulation sleeves for demolding. This makes it difficult to adapt to insulation sleeves with different placement postures in complex mold structures. Inappropriate angles of the robotic claws often lead to gripping deviations and instability. Improvements are needed to address these issues. Therefore, a robotic arm for demolding insulation sleeve production is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0024] A robotic arm for demolding insulation sleeve production includes a support 1. A motor 2 is fixedly installed inside the support 1. A lead screw 3 is rotatably mounted on the bottom surface of the support 1. The output shaft end of the motor 2 is fixedly mounted to the rotating shaft end of the lead screw 3. A movable block 4 is threaded onto the lead screw 3. A uniformly distributed connecting strip 5 is hinged to the side of the movable block 4. A uniformly distributed movable strip 6 is hinged to the bottom surface of the support 1. The number of sets of movable strip 6 is the same as the number of sets of connecting strip 5. The bottom ends of the connecting strip 5 are respectively hinged to the sides of the movable strip 6. A symmetrical circular plate 7 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of each movable strip 6. A motor 8 is fixedly mounted on one side of the circular plate 7. An installation strip 9 is rotatably mounted between the two sets of circular plates 7. The output shaft end of the motor 8 is fixedly mounted to the rotating shaft end of the installation strip 9. An electric push rod 10 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the installation strip 9. A clamping strip 11 is provided at the output shaft end of the electric push rod 10.
[0025] When the insulation sleeve is gripped and demolded, motor 2 on bracket 1 is started. The output shaft of motor 2 rotates, driving screw 3 to rotate. Since screw 3 is threadedly connected to movable block 4, the rotation of screw 3 drives movable block 4 to rise and fall vertically on the vertical rod. During the rising and falling of movable block 4, the connecting strip 5 hinged on the side deflects accordingly. Connecting strip 5 drives the hinged movable strip 6 to swing around the hinge point on the bottom surface of bracket 1, so that the circular plate 7 at the bottom of movable strip 6 and the components installed on it are close to the insulation sleeve. At this time, motor 8 starts, driving each mounting strip 9 to deflect around the circular plate 7, adjusting the angle of electric push rod 10 and clamping strip 11 on mounting strip 9. Then, electric push rod 10 extends, and clamping strip 11 contacts and clamps the insulation sleeve, realizing the gripping and demolding of the insulation sleeve from multiple directions. This robot for demolding insulation sleeve production can grip and demold the insulation sleeve from multiple directions, and the gripping angle is adjustable, effectively improving gripping adaptability and stability, improving demolding efficiency, and is highly practical.
[0026] A pad is laid on the surface of the clamping strip 11, and the pad is made of rubber.
[0027] The surface of the clamping strip 11 is covered with a rubber pad. The rubber pad is in close contact with the surface of the insulation sleeve, which increases the friction between the clamping strip 11 and the insulation sleeve, thereby improving the stability of gripping the insulation sleeve. At the same time, the rubber pad is soft and can buffer the pressure of the clamping strip 11 on the insulation sleeve during gripping, avoiding direct hard contact between the clamping strip 11 and the surface of the insulation sleeve, thus protecting the insulation sleeve and preventing the surface of the insulation sleeve from being pinched or worn.
[0028] Each of the mounting strips 9 has at least two symmetrical sets of electric push rods 10;
[0029] The output shaft of the electric push rod 10 extends, driving the clamping strip 11 to move towards the insulation sleeve and clamp it. Since at least two sets of electric push rods 10 are provided on a single mounting strip 9, the stability of the clamping strip 11 during the gripping process can be improved.
[0030] The output shaft ends of the two sets of electric push rods 10 are fixedly installed with a connecting strip 12, and the clamping strip 11 and the connecting strip 12 are fixedly installed with screws;
[0031] Both sets of electric push rods 10 have a connecting strip 12 fixedly installed at the output shaft end. The clamping strip 11 and the connecting strip 12 are fixedly installed by screws, which makes it easy to disassemble and assemble the clamping strip 11, and thus makes it easy to replace clamping strips 11 of different sizes.
[0032] The connecting strip 5, the movable strip 6, the mounting strip 9, and the clamping strip 11 are provided in at least three evenly distributed sets;
[0033] The connecting strip 5, the movable strip 6, the mounting strip 9, and the clamping strip 11 are provided in at least three evenly distributed sets, which can grip the insulation sleeve from multiple points and ensure the stability of gripping the insulation sleeve.
[0034] Working principle:
[0035] When the insulation sleeve is gripped and demolded, motor 2 on bracket 1 is started. The output shaft of motor 2 rotates and drives screw 3 to rotate. Since screw 3 is threadedly connected to movable block 4, the rotation of screw 3 drives movable block 4 to rise and fall vertically on the vertical rod. During the rise and fall of movable block 4, the side hinged connecting strip 5 deflects accordingly. Connecting strip 5 drives hinged movable strip 6 to swing around the hinge point on the bottom surface of bracket 1, so that the circular plate 7 at the bottom of movable strip 6 and the components installed on it are close to the insulation sleeve. At this time, motor 8 starts and drives each mounting strip 9 to deflect around the circular plate 7, adjusting the angle of electric push rod 10 and clamping strip 11 on mounting strip 9. Then, electric push rod 10 extends and clamping strip 11 contacts and clamps the insulation sleeve, realizing the gripping and demolding of the insulation sleeve from multiple directions. This robot for demolding insulation sleeve production can grip and demold the insulation sleeve from multiple directions, and the gripping angle is adjustable, effectively improving gripping adaptability and stability, improving demolding efficiency, and is highly practical.
[0036] in,
[0037] The surface of the clamping strip 11 is covered with a rubber pad. The rubber pad is in close contact with the surface of the insulation sleeve, which increases the friction between the clamping strip 11 and the insulation sleeve, thereby improving the stability of gripping the insulation sleeve. At the same time, the rubber pad is soft and can buffer the pressure of the clamping strip 11 on the insulation sleeve during gripping, avoiding direct hard contact between the clamping strip 11 and the surface of the insulation sleeve, thus protecting the insulation sleeve and preventing the surface of the insulation sleeve from being pinched or worn.
[0038] The output shaft of the electric push rod 10 extends, driving the clamping strip 11 to move towards the insulation sleeve and clamp it. Since at least two sets of electric push rods 10 are provided on a single mounting strip 9, the stability of the clamping strip 11 during the gripping process can be improved.
[0039] Both sets of electric push rods 10 have a connecting strip 12 fixedly installed at the output shaft ends. The clamping strip 11 and the connecting strip 12 are fixedly installed by screws, which makes it easy to disassemble and assemble the clamping strip 11, and thus makes it easy to replace clamping strips 11 of different sizes.
[0040] The connecting strip 5, the movable strip 6, the mounting strip 9, and the clamping strip 11 are provided in at least three evenly distributed sets, which can grip the insulation sleeve from multiple points and ensure the stability of gripping the insulation sleeve.
[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
