[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 3As shown, this embodiment provides a rotary clamping pin actuator, which includes a base 10, a linear guide rail 20, a clamping assembly 30, and a drive assembly 40. The linear guide rail 20 is disposed on the base 10, and a mounting member 50 is disposed on the drive end of the linear guide rail 20. The linear guide rail 20 is configured to drive the mounting member 50 to reciprocate in the vertical direction. The clamping assembly 30 includes a rotating shaft 31, a gripper assembly 32, and a follower 33. The first end of the rotating shaft 31 is rotatably disposed on the mounting member 50, and the gripper assembly 32 is disposed on the second end of the rotating shaft 31. At the first end of the gripper assembly 32, the follower 33 is disposed, and the follower 33 is configured to drive the gripper assembly 32 to clamp or release the pin. The drive assembly 40 includes a rotary drive and a transmission assembly (not shown in the figure). The rotary drive is disposed on the mounting member 50, the first end of the transmission assembly is disposed at the drive end of the rotary drive, and the second end of the transmission assembly is disposed at the first end of the rotating shaft 31. The rotary drive is configured to cooperate with the transmission assembly to drive the rotating shaft 31 to rotate by a preset angle, thereby controlling the installation direction of the pin clamped on the gripper assembly 30.

[0028] As can be seen, the linear guide 20 realizes the vertical pin insertion action, and the rotary drive drives the rotating shaft 31 to rotate through the transmission component to adjust the pin angle. The two work together to achieve precise control of the pin position and direction, which is suitable for pins with various angles. At the same time, by integrating the clamping component 30 and the drive component 40 into the mounting component 50, the entire structure can be moved by the linear guide 20, which is compact and easy to maintain.

[0029] In one embodiment, the gripper assembly 32 includes a mounting base 320, an upper clamping plate 321, a lower clamping plate 322, and a connecting plate 323. The mounting base 320 is disposed at the second end of the rotating shaft 31. The upper clamping plate 321 and the lower clamping plate 322 are symmetrically disposed on the mounting base 320. The connecting plate 323 is rotatably disposed on the mounting base 320. One end of the connecting plate 323 is connected to the upper clamping plate 321, and the other end of the connecting plate 323 is equipped with a follower 33. The connecting plate 323 is configured to cooperate with the follower 33 to drive the upper clamping plate 321 to move closer to or away from the lower clamping plate 322 in order to clamp or release the pin.

[0030] As can be seen, by driving the connecting plate 323 to rotate through the follower 33, the upper clamping plate 321 is brought closer to or away from the lower clamping plate 322 by lever action, thereby realizing the clamping and release of the pin, reducing the driving stroke, improving the response speed, and amplifying the clamping force through the lever arm design of the connecting plate 323.

[0031] In one embodiment, the gripper assembly 32 further includes an elastic element 324. The upper clamping plate 321 has multiple mounting holes, and the elastic element 324 is disposed in the mounting holes. The elastic element 324 is configured to drive the upper clamping plate 321 to abut against the lower clamping plate 322.

[0032] Specifically, the elastic element 324 is a spring.

[0033] As can be seen, the elastic element 324 keeps the upper clamping plate 321 in contact with the lower clamping plate 322 at all times, ensuring that the grippers are in a closed state when the follower 33 is not in motion, thus preventing the pin from falling off; at the same time, the elastic buffer can avoid the deformation of the pin caused by rigid clamping.

[0034] In one embodiment, the linear guide 20 is also provided with a bearing seat 60, and the second end of the rotating shaft 31 passes through the bearing seat 60.

[0035] As can be seen, the bearing seat 60 supports the second end of the rotating shaft 31, reducing the cantilever length, reducing the shaking during rotation, and ensuring the accuracy of the pin angle.

[0036] In one embodiment, the transmission assembly includes a driving wheel, a driven wheel, and a transmission belt. The driving wheel is located at the driving end of the rotating drive member, the driven wheel is located at the first end of the rotating shaft 31, and the transmission belt is sleeved on the driving wheel and the driven wheel.

[0037] It can be seen that a transmission component with buffering and vibration absorption characteristics, smooth operation and low noise has been provided.

[0038] In one embodiment, a protective cover 70 is provided on the top of the mounting component 50, which is configured to protect the clamping assembly 30 and the drive assembly 40.

[0039] As can be seen, the protective cover 70 isolates dust and foreign objects, preventing them from entering the transmission components or the gaps between the grippers, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the mechanism and reducing the frequency of maintenance.
