Detailed Implementation
[0024] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.
[0025] Example 1:
[0026] This embodiment provides a gripper structure, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, it includes:
[0027] Connecting arm 1, used for installation and connection with the main arm;
[0028] The swing arm mechanism 2 is used to support the gripper assembly 3;
[0029] Grab assembly 3, used for gripping the arch frame;
[0030] Rotating mechanism 4 can drive the swing arm mechanism 2 to rotate.
[0031] The lower end of the connecting arm 1 is connected to one side of the rotating mechanism 4, the other side of the rotating mechanism 4 is connected to one end of the swing arm mechanism 2, and the other end of the swing arm mechanism 2 is connected to the gripper assembly 3; the swing arm mechanism 2 is composed of a mounting base 21, a basic arm 22, a first adapter 23, a connecting rod 24, a first drive mechanism 25, a swing seat 26, and a second drive mechanism 27.
[0032] The connecting arm 1 is connected to the main arm of the trolley. The distance adjustment of the gripper assembly 3 is achieved by the extension and retraction of the main arm of the trolley. Therefore, there is no need to set up a telescopic arm in the swing arm mechanism 2, which reduces the cost. The rotating mechanism 4 can drive the swing arm mechanism 2 to rotate, thereby causing the gripper assembly 3 to rotate and expanding the working range of the gripper assembly 3. The gripper assembly 3 can grasp the arch frame. The mechanical operation reduces the labor intensity of workers and improves work efficiency.
[0033] For reliable operation of the swing arm mechanism 2, the mounting base 21 is rotatably connected to the swing seat 26, and the swing seat 26 is rotatably connected to the basic arm 22. One end of the first adapter 23 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 21, and the other end of the first adapter 23 is rotatably connected to one end of the connecting rod 24. The other end of the connecting rod 24 is rotatably connected to the swing seat 26. The first drive mechanism 25 drives the swing seat 26 to swing, and the second drive mechanism 27 drives the basic arm 22 to swing. One end of the first drive mechanism 25 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 21, and the other end of the first drive mechanism 25 is rotatably connected to the first adapter 23. One end of the second drive mechanism 27 is rotatably connected to the swing seat 26, and the other end of the second drive mechanism 27 is rotatably connected to the basic arm 22. In this embodiment, both the first drive mechanism 25 and the second drive mechanism 27 are hydraulic cylinders.
[0034] The first drive mechanism 25 can drive the first adapter 23 to rotate, and then the first adapter 23 drives the connecting rod 24 to move, and the connecting rod 24 pushes the swing seat 26 to achieve pitch adjustment; the second drive mechanism 27 can drive the basic arm 22 to rotate around the hinge point with the swing seat 26, thereby realizing the swing of the gripper assembly 3. The swing is reliable and the gripping position of the gripper assembly 3 can be easily adjusted.
[0035] The plane of motion of the first drive mechanism 25 driving the swing seat 26 to swing is perpendicular to the plane of motion of the second drive mechanism 27 driving the basic arm 22 to swing.
[0036] The connecting arm 1 is arranged vertically in a straight line, and the mounting base 21 is arranged horizontally in a straight line. The connecting arm 1 and the mounting base 21 have simple structures, are easy to manufacture and process, and have low cost. The upper side of the rotating mechanism 4 is connected to the lower end of the connecting arm 1, and the lower side of the rotating mechanism 4 is connected to the upper end of the mounting base 21. The rotating mechanism 4 and the basic arm 22 are located on both sides of the mounting base 21. The distance between the rotating mechanism 4 and the basic arm 22 is large, which allows the rotating mechanism 4 to drive the basic arm 22 to rotate over a large range, and thus the rotation range of the gripper assembly 3 is also large. The connecting arm 1, the rotating mechanism 4 and the mounting base 21 form an L-shape. The L-shaped design makes the distance between the connecting arm 1 and the basic arm 22 large, which facilitates the connection between the connecting arm 1 and the main arm of the trolley. The connecting arm 1 and the basic arm 22 are located on the same side of the mounting base 21, and the overall height is low, which is suitable for working environments with limited height, such as mines.
[0037] For ease of connection, the gripper assembly 3 is connected to the base arm 22 via a second adapter 5. The lower end of the second adapter 5 is hinged to the upper end of the base arm 22, and the swing plate 33 is hinged to the second adapter 5. The design of the second adapter 5 enables the gripper assembly 3 to be connected to the base arm 22.
[0038] To expand the gripping range, an angle adjustment mechanism 6 is provided between the second adapter 5 and the basic arm 22. The angle adjustment mechanism 6 is used to adjust the deflection angle of the gripper assembly 3 relative to the swing arm mechanism 2. The angle adjustment mechanism 6 can adjust the deflection angle of the gripper assembly 3, making it convenient for the gripper assembly 3 to grip in different directions.
[0039] To ensure reliable angle adjustment, the angle adjustment mechanism 6 is an angle adjustment cylinder. One end of the angle adjustment cylinder is hinged to the basic arm 22, and the other end is hinged to the second adapter 5. The motion plane in which the angle adjustment cylinder drives the second adapter 5 to deflect is parallel to or coincides with the motion plane in which the first drive mechanism 25 drives the basic arm 22 to swing.
[0040] To expand the gripping range, the gripper assembly 3 includes a gripper mechanism 31 and a swing mechanism. The swing mechanism drives the gripper mechanism 31 to swing. The swing mechanism is a swing cylinder 32, with one end hinged to the gripper mechanism 31 and the other end hinged to the second adapter 5. The swing cylinder 32 drives the gripper mechanism 31 to rotate around the hinge point, and directly pushes the gripper mechanism 31 to swing. The small rotation radius of the gripper mechanism 31 facilitates adjustment of the gripping position within a small range, resulting in more precise gripping.
[0041] To ensure the reliability of the gripper mechanism 31, the gripper mechanism 31 includes a swing plate 33, one end of which is hinged to the second adapter 5; the swing plate 33 is provided with claws 34. Specifically, one end of the swing plate 33 is hinged to the top side of the second adapter 5, and the other end is hinged to the swing cylinder 32; the claws 34 are arranged in pairs on the swing plate 33, and are provided at least at both ends of the swing plate 33. The motion plane of the swing plate 33 driven by the swing cylinder 32 is perpendicular to the motion plane of the second adapter 5 driven by the angle adjustment cylinder.
