Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of robotic arm technology, specifically to a dexterous robotic arm with a rotating camera lens. Background Technology
[0002] Bionic robotic hands are bionic machines that are powered to mimic the form, structure, and movements of living organisms. They have adaptive grasping capabilities and can grasp a variety of objects. They can be used in different situations to reduce the need for complex sensing and real-time control, and improve the stability and accuracy of grasping. They can be widely used in industrial, agricultural, and service industry robots or as prosthetic hands for people with disabilities.
[0003] A search revealed that patent CN210616514U discloses a bionic robotic hand that achieves bending movements of the fingers, palm, and arm by stretching multiple thin wires. This avoids the need for multiple drive motors, reduces electromagnetic interference, and provides the return power through torsion springs, expansion springs, and restorative soft ropes, effectively reducing the number of parts in the bionic robotic hand.
[0004] The aforementioned patent describes a robotic arm that uses components such as torsion springs, expansion springs, and restorative soft ropes, along with a small number of motors, to drive the robotic arm's components to bend. While this simplifies the robotic arm's structure, it makes it inconvenient for users to observe the surrounding environment from all angles during remote operation, hindering remote control. Therefore, we provide a dexterous robotic arm with a rotating camera lens to solve the aforementioned problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dexterous robotic arm with a rotating camera lens to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a dexterous robotic hand with a rotating camera lens, including a base, a plurality of mechanical fingers being movably connected to the top surface of the base, a fixing unit being provided on the bottom surface of the base, and a motion unit being provided inside the fixing unit;
[0007] The fixing unit includes a fixing base, which is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the base. A support rod is fixedly connected inside the fixing base, and a stabilizing turntable is rotatably connected to the top of the outer surface of the support rod.
[0008] The bottom of the outer surface of the support rod is rotatably connected to a power turntable, a rack is fixedly connected inside the power turntable, and a drive motor is fixedly connected inside the bottom surface of the fixed base.
[0009] The output end of the drive motor is fixedly connected to a drive gear, which is rotatably connected inside the bottom surface of the fixed base. The drive gear meshes with one end of the rack inside the rack.
[0010] A further improvement of this utility model is that: a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer surface of the support rod, a limiting bead is movably connected to the inside of the side of the fixing plate, a spring is fixedly connected to the side of the limiting bead, and one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixing plate.
[0011] A further improvement of the present invention is that the motion unit includes a sleeve, which is rotatably connected inside the fixed base. Two sets of fixing rods are fixedly connected inside the sleeve. One set of fixing rods is engaged inside the stable turntable, and the other set of fixing rods is engaged inside the power turntable.
[0012] A further improvement of this utility model is that: multiple limiting slots are evenly provided inside the sleeve, one end of the limiting bead is engaged inside the limiting slot, and a fixing block is fixedly connected to the side of the sleeve.
[0013] A further improvement of this utility model is that: a threaded sleeve is rotatably connected inside the top surface of the fixing block, a camera lens is threaded inside the threaded sleeve, and two fill lights are fixedly connected to the top surface of the fixing block.
[0014] A further improvement of this utility model is that a micro motor is fixedly connected to the side of the sleeve, and an adjusting gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the micro motor, the adjusting gear meshing with the threaded sleeve.
[0015] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technological progress achieved by this utility model compared to the prior art is as follows:
[0016] This utility model uses a drive motor to drive a drive gear to rotate, which in turn causes a rack meshing with the drive gear to rotate, thereby driving a power turntable on the outer surface of the rack to rotate. The power turntable further drives the motion unit inside the fixed unit to rotate.
[0017] As the motion unit rotates, its internal components drive the stabilizing turntable to rotate. Through the cooperation of the stabilizing turntable and the power turntable, the connection of the motion unit is ensured to be more stable, and the shooting angle of the motion unit can be easily adjusted so as to shoot the target from a suitable angle.
[0018] The fixed plate remains in a fixed state. When the motion unit rotates, it squeezes the limiting ball and retracts it into the fixed plate. When the motion unit rotates to a certain angle, the spring pops out the limiting ball, so that it re-engages inside the motion unit, improving the stability of the motion unit in the stationary state and reducing the possible shaking.
[0019] This utility model uses a set of fixed rods that are snapped into the inside of a power turntable. The rotation of the power turntable drives the entire motion unit to rotate, thereby adjusting the position of the shooting lens. The stability of the device is increased and the shaking after it is fixed is reduced by another set of fixed rods and limiting slots cooperating with the internal components of the fixed unit.
[0020] Once the camera lens is adjusted to the appropriate position, it works in conjunction with the eyepiece inside the fixed block to capture the target. The micro motor can be used to adjust the gears, which in turn rotates the threaded sleeve, thus adjusting the extension length of the camera lens. By adjusting the position of the camera lens and the original eyepiece, the focal length of the fixed block can be adjusted. The supplementary light provides supplementary illumination during the camera lens's operation, improving the shooting effect in low-light conditions. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments:
[0030] Example 1: As Figure 1-7 As shown, this utility model provides a dexterous robotic hand with a rotating camera lens, including a base 1, a plurality of robotic fingers 2 movably connected to the top surface of the base 1, a fixing unit 3 provided on the bottom surface of the base 1, and a motion unit 4 provided inside the fixing unit 3.
[0031] The fixing unit 3 includes a fixing base 31, which is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the base 1. A support rod 33 is fixedly connected inside the fixing base 31, and a stabilizing turntable 32 is rotatably connected to the top of the outer surface of the support rod 33.
[0032] The bottom of the outer surface of the support rod 33 is rotatably connected to a power turntable 34, and a rack 35 is fixedly connected inside the power turntable 34. A drive motor 36 is fixedly connected inside the bottom surface of the fixed base 31.
[0033] A fixing plate 38 is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer surface of the support rod 33. A limit ball 310 is movably connected to the inside of the side of the fixing plate 38. A spring 39 is fixedly connected to the side of the limit ball 310. One end of the spring 39 is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixing plate 38.
[0034] The output end of the drive motor 36 is fixedly connected to the drive gear 37, which is rotatably connected to the inside of the bottom surface of the fixed base 31. The drive gear 37 meshes with one end of the rack 35.
[0035] In this embodiment, five sets of mechanical fingers 2 are set on the top surface of the base 1, so that the cooperation between the base 1 and the mechanical fingers 2 can ensure that the device can perform dexterous movements. The limiting beads 310 are evenly arranged inside the side of the fixing plate 38, and each limiting bead 310 is provided with a spring 39 on its side. The drive motor 36, the supplementary light 46 and the micro motor 48 and other electrical components are electrically connected to the battery pack in the externally installed robotic arm.
[0036] The drive motor 36 drives the drive gear 37 to rotate, which allows the rack 35 meshing with the drive gear 37 to rotate, driving the power turntable 34 on the outer surface of the rack 35 to rotate, and the power turntable 34 further drives the motion unit 4 inside the fixed unit 3 to rotate.
[0037] As the motion unit 4 rotates, its internal components drive the stabilizing turntable 32 to rotate. Through the cooperation of the stabilizing turntable 32 and the power turntable 34, the connection of the motion unit 4 is made more stable, and the shooting angle of the motion unit 4 is easily adjusted so as to shoot the target at a suitable angle.
[0038] The fixed plate 38 remains fixed. When the motion unit 4 rotates, it squeezes the limiting bead 310 back into the fixed plate 38. When the motion unit 4 rotates to a certain angle, the spring 39 pops the limiting bead 310 out, so that it is re-engaged in the motion unit 4, which improves the stability of the motion unit 4 in the stationary state and reduces the possible shaking.
[0039] Example 2: As Figure 1-7 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution: Preferably, the motion unit 4 includes a sleeve 41, which is rotatably connected to the inside of the fixed base 31. Two sets of fixing rods 42 are fixedly connected inside the sleeve 41. One set of fixing rods 42 is engaged inside the stable turntable 32, and the other set of fixing rods 42 is engaged inside the power turntable 34.
[0040] Multiple limiting slots 43 are evenly provided inside the sleeve 41. One end of the limiting bead 310 is engaged inside the limiting slot 43. A fixing block 44 is fixedly connected to the side of the sleeve 41. A threaded sleeve 47 is rotatably connected inside the top surface of the fixing block 44. A shooting lens 45 is threadedly connected inside the threaded sleeve 47. Two fill lights 46 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the fixing block 44.
[0041] A micro motor 48 is fixedly connected to the side of the sleeve 41, and an adjusting gear 49 is fixedly connected to the output end of the micro motor 48. The adjusting gear 49 meshes with the threaded sleeve 47.
[0042] In this embodiment, there are two sets of fixing rods 42, which are fixedly connected to the top of the sleeve 41 and respectively snapped into the inside of the stabilizing turntable 32 and the power turntable 34. The fixing block 44 can be photographed by the shooting lens 45, and there is a basic eyepiece inside it.
[0043] A set of fixing rods 42 are engaged inside the power turntable 34. The rotation of the power turntable 34 can drive the entire motion unit 4 to rotate, thereby adjusting the position of the shooting lens 45. The stability of the device is increased and the shaking after it is fixed is reduced by the cooperation of another set of fixing rods 42 and the limiting slot 43 with the internal components of the fixing unit 3.
[0044] Once the shooting lens 45 is adjusted to the appropriate position, the shooting lens 45 cooperates with the eyepiece inside the fixed block 44 to shoot the target. The micro motor 48 can be used to adjust the gear 49 to rotate, which in turn causes the threaded sleeve 47 to rotate, adjusting the extension length of the shooting lens 45. By adjusting the position of the shooting lens 45 and the original eyepiece, the shooting focal length of the fixed block 44 can be adjusted. The supplementary light 46 provides supplementary light to the shooting lens 45 during shooting, improving the shooting effect in dark places.
[0045] The working principle of this dexterous robotic arm with a rotating camera lens will be explained in detail below.
[0046] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the drive motor 36 drives the drive gear 37 to rotate, which in turn drives the rack 35 that meshes with the drive gear 37 to rotate, which in turn drives the power turntable 34 on the outer surface of the rack 35 to rotate, and the power turntable 34 further drives the motion unit 4 inside the fixed unit 3 to rotate.
[0047] As the motion unit 4 rotates, its internal components drive the stabilizing turntable 32 to rotate. Through the cooperation of the stabilizing turntable 32 and the power turntable 34, the connection of the motion unit 4 is made more stable, and the shooting angle of the motion unit 4 is easily adjusted so as to shoot the target at a suitable angle.
[0048] The fixed plate 38 remains fixed. When the motion unit 4 rotates, it squeezes the limiting bead 310 back into the fixed plate 38. When the motion unit 4 rotates to a certain angle, the spring 39 pops out the limiting bead 310, so that it is re-engaged in the motion unit 4, which improves the stability of the motion unit 4 in the stationary state and reduces the possible shaking.
[0049] Once the shooting lens 45 is adjusted to the appropriate position, the shooting lens 45 cooperates with the eyepiece inside the fixed block 44 to shoot the target. The micro motor 48 can be used to adjust the gear 49 to rotate, which in turn causes the threaded sleeve 47 to rotate, adjusting the extension length of the shooting lens 45. By adjusting the position of the shooting lens 45 and the original eyepiece, the shooting focal length of the fixed block 44 can be adjusted. The supplementary light 46 provides supplementary light to the shooting lens 45 during shooting, improving the shooting effect in dark places.
[0050] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit and concept of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
