Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of robot gripper technology, specifically to a gripper for grasping and transferring automotive clamp castings. Background Technology

[0002] Grippers are the most common type of end effector. They can be mounted on industrial robot arms to directly grasp workpieces or perform operations, and have the functions of clamping, transporting, and placing workpieces to a certain position.

[0003] Most existing robotic grippers use pneumatic actuators to drive the end effector to perform gripping and unloading operations. During the gripping of castings, the grippers typically use opposing, movable arms on both sides to contact the sidewalls of the casting and grasp it through friction. Therefore, they are prone to slipping off during transport. To address this, we propose a gripper for gripping and transporting automotive body castings. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems in the existing technology, this utility model provides a gripper for grasping and transferring automotive clamp castings.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is a gripper for gripping and transferring automotive body castings, including a mounting bracket. A cylinder is mounted on the mounting bracket by bolts. An adapter is assembled at the power output end of the cylinder. A locking gripper is rotatably connected between the two lugs of the adapter via a rotating shaft. One side of the locking gripper is provided for locking the casting. The two ends of the locking gripper are respectively rotatably connected to the inside of a rotating connecting plate.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, when the locking gripper moves to the vicinity of the clamp casting, the sensing device transmits a signal to the robot's central control end, and then controls the cylinder installed inside the mounting bracket to move and push out the adapter. The adapter, together with the transmission component connected to the ear plate, moves towards the output plate and pushes out the locking gripper, so that it can rotate at an angle under the restriction of the rotating connecting plates on both sides, so that the locking port is locked on the protrusion on the surface of the casting, realizing the gripping operation.

[0007] Specifically, the rotating connecting plate has two sets respectively assembled at both ends of the side wall of the output plate, and the output plate is installed on one side of the mounting bracket by bolts.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, two sets of rotating connecting plates are respectively rotatably connected to the two ends of the locking jaws for alignment and positioning, thereby allowing the locking jaws to rotate around the axis of the rotating connection.

[0009] Specifically, the mounting bracket is fitted with a mounting panel at the end away from the output board, and a signal connection interface is provided on the surface of the mounting panel at the end away from the mounting bracket.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the device is installed at the interface of the robot's end effector via a mounting panel, and the operation of the cylinder and sensing device is controlled via a signal connection interface.

[0011] Specifically, the mounting bracket is equipped with an electrical junction box, and the two ends of the electrical junction box are respectively equipped with wiring terminals.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, during use, control signals are transmitted by connecting the wiring terminals at both ends of the electrical junction box to the signal connection interface on the side wall of the mounting panel and the cylinder, respectively.

[0013] Specifically, the output plate has a through hole on its surface that matches the transmission component, and the transmission component passes through the output plate and is connected to the locking jaws.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the power of the cylinder is transmitted to the locking jaws through the transmission component that passes through the output plate, thereby achieving the gripping operation in conjunction with the connecting structure.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1) Improve clamping stability and reliability: The locking jaws directly engage with the protrusions on the surface of the casting, leveraging the advantages of the mechanical structure to ensure that the casting will not fall off during clamping. Compared with traditional jaws that grip castings through friction, this locking method greatly improves the stability and reliability of clamping, especially reducing the risk of casting falling off during transport.

[0017] 2) Automated control and efficient operation: The sensing device transmits signals to the robot's central control unit, which then controls the cylinder to run. The cylinder's power output pushes out the adapter, which in turn drives the locking gripper to perform the clamping operation. This achieves automated control, reduces manual intervention, improves the efficiency of grasping and transferring, and also improves the accuracy and consistency of the operation.

[0018] 3) Flexible structural design and adaptability: The locking gripper restricts its movement by rotating the connecting plate, allowing it to rotate at angles, making it suitable for castings of different shapes and sizes; the electrical junction box and wiring terminal design inside the mounting bracket allows the entire device to be connected to the robot end effector via a signal connection interface, enabling flexible control; the entire gripper assembly has high flexibility and adaptability, and can adapt to different types of automotive clamp body castings, expanding its application range.

[0019] 4) The entire grasping and transfer process is automated and efficient, reducing the tedious manual operation steps.

[0020] 5) The locking jaws directly engage with the protrusions on the surface of the casting through the locking port of the mechanical structure, reducing the possibility of the casting falling off due to vibration or other reasons during the transfer process; this reduces the risk of the casting falling off during the transfer process, thereby improving the safety of the entire production process and reducing the accident rate.

[0021] In summary, this invention greatly improves the safety, stability, and efficiency of gripping and transferring automotive clamp castings, while reducing operating costs and maintenance difficulty, demonstrating significant practicality and market application value.
