Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of robotic arm technology, and in particular to a robotic arm transfer device and a vertical transport device having the same. Background Technology

[0002] In the construction of high-rise buildings, elevators or hoisting frames are used to transport materials. Once the materials reach the target floor, subsequent handling is typically done manually. Whether operators enter the transport equipment to transfer materials to the floor or move materials directly from the equipment to the floor, this requires a significant amount of repetitive labor, increasing labor costs. Furthermore, the materials transported during construction are usually heavy, and operators are prone to slipping and dropping materials, as well as accidents due to exhaustion, posing safety risks. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome at least one of the defects described in the prior art, this utility model provides a robotic arm transfer device and a vertical transport device having the same. This solves the problems of low manual efficiency and low automation.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its problem is:

[0005] A robotic arm transfer device, applied between floor slabs, includes: a support structure; a support column, the support column being assembled between the support structures and being telescopically configured to abut both ends of the support structure against the floor slab; a robotic arm, the robotic arm being assembled on the support column and capable of horizontal rotation relative to the support column; and a pallet, the pallet being connected to the end of the robotic arm away from the support column; wherein, the robotic arm moves horizontally to transfer materials on the pallet to the floor slab.

[0006] By adopting the above solution, the robotic arm transfer equipment realizes material transfer through the robotic arm, reducing manual operation links, thereby reducing labor costs, avoiding direct manual handling of heavy objects, reducing the possibility of safety accidents caused by human operation errors or physical problems, and improving operational safety; moreover, the support column can be telescopically set, and the two ends of the support structure are fixed to the top and bottom surfaces of the floor slab, so that the robotic arm transfer equipment can be flexibly adjusted according to the floor height of different floors and is suitable for different building environments.

[0007] Furthermore, the support column includes at least one of a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, and an oil cylinder.

[0008] By adopting the above scheme, the cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, and oil cylinders can all realize the extension and retraction of the piston rod through changes in internal pressure. The length can be flexibly adjusted according to the floor height of different floors, ensuring that both ends of the support structure can reliably abut against the floor slab, thereby providing a stable support effect for the robotic arm transfer equipment. Moreover, the cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, and oil cylinders are also easy to integrate with the automated control system to realize the automated control of the extension and retraction of the support column.

[0009] Furthermore, the support structure includes: a base, which is assembled at the bottom end of the support column; and a support bracket, which is assembled at the top end of the support column.

[0010] By adopting the above solution, the base is assembled at the bottom of the support column, which can increase the contact area with the floor slab, distribute the pressure of the equipment on the floor slab more evenly, and avoid excessive local pressure; the support bracket can abut against the top of the floor slab as the support column extends and retracts, preventing the robotic arm transfer equipment from shaking and tilting during operation, and ensuring the stability of the equipment when handling materials.

[0011] Further, the robotic arm includes: a first movable arm; at least one second movable arm; wherein, when there is one second movable arm, one end of the second movable arm is rotatably connected to the first movable arm, and the other end of the second movable arm is rotatably connected to the tray; when there are two or more second movable arms, the second movable arms are arranged sequentially and rotatably connected to each other, one end of the second movable arm located at the head is rotatably connected to the first movable arm, and one end of the second movable arm located at the tail is rotatably connected to the tray.

[0012] By adopting the above solution and combining multiple movable arms, the robotic arm can achieve a wider range of movement. Taking a single second movable arm as an example, it increases the pallet's horizontal movement range; when there are multiple second movable arms, this expansion effect is even more significant, allowing the robotic arm to transfer materials on the pallet to a wider floor area, meeting the needs of different construction locations; it also enhances material handling capacity. Because the movable arms can rotate relative to each other, operators can precisely control the position of the pallet, ensuring that materials are accurately placed in the designated location when transferring materials from the transport equipment to the floor, avoiding secondary handling due to positional deviations, and improving work efficiency.

[0013] Furthermore, a first drive motor is provided at the connection between the second movable arm and the first movable arm, at the connection between the second movable arm and the tray, and at the connection between the second movable arms.

[0014] By adopting the above solution, each connection point is equipped with a first drive motor, meaning that the rotation angle between each movable arm can be independently controlled. This allows for precise adjustment of the pallet's angle and position based on the specific location and target placement point of the material, ensuring accurate placement and significantly improving the precision of material handling. Different construction materials vary in size, shape, and weight, and their target locations also differ. This design enables the robotic arm to flexibly adapt to these variations, enhancing its adaptability and versatility. Furthermore, it possesses fault isolation capabilities; when one drive motor fails, it does not affect the normal operation of other drive motors, ensuring that the robotic arm can still complete basic material handling tasks even with partial drive motor failures, thus guaranteeing the continuity of the construction process.

[0015] Furthermore, a movable bearing is fitted onto the support column, and a clearance groove is provided on the first movable arm to avoid the movable bearing, the clearance groove being in contact with the outer wall of the movable bearing.

[0016] By adopting the above scheme, the movable bearing is sleeved on the support column, which makes the rotation between the first movable arm and the support column faster and more convenient during the rotation process. This greatly reduces the resistance when the first movable arm rotates, reduces the wear between components, and extends the service life of the equipment. The clearance groove facilitates the assembly of the movable arm and the movable bearing.

[0017] Furthermore, it also includes a drive assembly for driving the first movable arm to rotate relative to the support column. The drive assembly includes: a mounting bracket mounted on the first movable arm; a second drive motor mounted on the mounting bracket; a first drive gear that is kinetically connected to the output shaft of the second drive motor; and a first driven gear sleeved on the outer surface of the movable bearing. The first drive gear and the first driven gear are meshed together.

[0018] By adopting the above scheme, power is transmitted by meshing the first driving gear and the second driven gear. The gear transmission has high transmission efficiency and can effectively transmit the power output by the second drive motor to the first movable arm, reducing power loss during transmission.

[0019] Furthermore, the base is equipped with a longitudinal movement assembly for driving the robotic arm to move longitudinally; the longitudinal movement assembly includes: a fixed seat, which is mounted on the base and is hollow inside; a third drive motor, which is mounted on the fixed seat; a second drive gear, which is mounted inside the fixed seat and is connected to the output shaft of the third drive motor; a fixed sleeve; a lead screw, one end of which extends into the fixed seat and the other end is located inside the fixed sleeve; a second driven gear, which is mounted on one end of the lead screw located inside the fixed seat and meshes with the second drive gear; and a mounting sleeve, which is at least partially fitted onto the outer surface of the lead screw and moves longitudinally relative to the lead screw.

[0020] By adopting the above scheme, the third drive motor drives the second driving gear, which in turn drives the second driven gear, which is connected to the second driving gear, to rotate, ultimately causing the lead screw to rotate. The gear transmission has a precise transmission ratio, which ensures that the rotational motion of the third drive motor is accurately converted into the rotational motion of the lead screw, reducing errors in the power transmission process. The mounting sleeve is fitted onto the outer surface of the lead screw. When the lead screw rotates, the mounting sleeve will move linearly along the axis of the lead screw, pushing the sliding bearing to move, thereby achieving the longitudinal movement of the robotic arm.

[0021] Furthermore, a guide plate is provided on the support column, and an avoidance hole is opened on the guide plate. A guide rod is inserted through the guide plate, and one end of the guide rod is connected to the movable bearing so that the guide rod can move longitudinally relative to the guide plate.

[0022] By adopting the above solution, the guide plate and guide rod work together to provide precise guidance for the longitudinal movement of the movable bearing, ensuring that the movable bearing will not deviate or wobble during longitudinal movement, thereby ensuring the stability of the entire robotic arm during longitudinal movement.

[0023] This utility model also provides a vertical transportation device, which adopts the above-mentioned robotic arm transfer device.

[0024] By adopting the above solution, the robotic arm transfer equipment can be installed between floor slabs and used in conjunction with vertical transportation equipment.

[0025] In summary, the robotic arm transfer device and the vertical transport device having the same provided by this utility model have the following technical effects:

[0026] 1. Wide range of applications; the telescopic design of the support column allows the equipment to adapt to building structures with different floor heights and floor slab spacings, enhancing the stability, versatility and flexibility of the equipment.

[0027] 2. Wide operating range: The robotic arm is mounted on the support column and can rotate horizontally. Combined with the pallet design, the equipment can transfer materials in a large space, improving work efficiency.

[0028] 3. Excellent placement effect: The longitudinal movement component, through the cooperation of the third drive motor, the second drive gear, the second driven gear and the lead screw, realizes the longitudinal movement control of the robotic arm, ensuring the precise placement of materials;

[0029] 4. High degree of automation, reducing human intervention throughout the process. Attached Figure Description

The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0040] See Figures 1-4 This utility model discloses a robotic arm 3 transfer device applied between floor slabs, including a support structure 1, a support column 2, a robotic arm 3, and a tray 4. The support column 2 is assembled between the support structures 1 and is telescopically configured to abut both ends of the support structure 1 against the floor slab. The robotic arm 3 is assembled on the support column 2 and can rotate horizontally relative to the support column 2. The tray 4 is connected to the end of the robotic arm 3 away from the support column 2. The robotic arm 3 moves horizontally to transfer materials on the tray 4 to the floor slab. The robotic arm 3 transfer device realizes material transfer through the robotic arm 3, reducing manual operation links, thereby reducing labor costs, avoiding direct manual handling of heavy objects, reducing the possibility of safety accidents caused by human operation errors or physical limitations, and improving operational safety. Moreover, the telescopically configured support column 2 abuts and fixes both ends of the support structure 1 against the top and bottom surfaces of the floor slab, allowing the robotic arm 3 transfer device to be flexibly adjusted according to the floor height of different floors, making it suitable for different building environments.

[0041] Specifically, the support column 2 includes at least one of a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, and an oil cylinder. The pneumatic cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, and oil cylinder can all realize the extension and retraction of the piston rod through changes in internal pressure. The length can be flexibly adjusted according to the floor height of different floors to ensure that both ends of the support structure 1 can reliably abut against the floor slab, thereby providing a stable support effect for the transfer equipment of the robotic arm 3. Moreover, the pneumatic cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, and oil cylinder are easy to integrate with the automated control system to realize the automated control of the extension and retraction of the support column 2.

[0042] Specifically, the support structure 1 includes a base 11 and a support bracket 12. The base 11 is assembled at the bottom end of the support column 2, and the support bracket 12 is assembled at the top end of the support column 2. Optionally, the base 11 and the support bracket 12 are made of high-strength steel plate. High-strength steel plate can maintain structural stability when subjected to large loads, reducing the risk of deformation and breakage. The cross-sections of the base 11 and the support bracket 12 are both triangular, and the cross-sectional areas of the base 11 and the support bracket 12 are larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the support column 2. This design can increase the contact area with the floor slab, distribute the pressure of the support column 2 on the floor slab more evenly, and avoid excessive local pressure.

[0043] In this embodiment, the supporting column 2 is described in detail using a cylinder. The cylinder is arranged longitudinally and has an output end 23. The bottom end of the cylinder is welded to the base 11, and the output end 23 of the cylinder is welded to the support bracket 12. The welded connection structure is firm and prevents the cylinder from breaking from the support bracket 12 and the base 11.

[0044] In this embodiment, the robotic arm 3 includes a first movable arm 31 and two second movable arms 32. One end of one of the second movable arms 32 is rotatably connected to the first movable arm 31, the other end of one of the second movable arms 32 is rotatably connected to one end of the other movable arm, and the other end of the other movable arm is rotatably connected to the tray 4.

In this embodiment, the design of one first movable arm 31 and two second movable arms 32, along with the limitation of their rotation angles, expands the horizontal movement range. The operator can precisely control the position of the tray 4, ensuring that the materials are accurately placed in the designated position when transferring materials from the transport equipment to the floor, avoiding secondary handling due to positional deviations, and improving work efficiency.

[0045] Among them, a first drive motor 321 is provided at the connection between one of the second movable arms 32 and the first movable arm 31, at the connection between one of the second movable arms 32 and the other second movable arm 32, and at the connection between the other second movable arm 32 and the tray 4 to drive their rotation; specifically, the first drive motor 321 at the connection between one of the second movable arms 32 and the first movable arm 31 is mounted below one of the second movable arms 32, and the output shaft of the first drive motor 321 is connected to one of the second movable arms 32 for transmission, thereby driving one of the second movable arms 32 to rotate relative to the first movable arm 31; one of the... The first drive motor 321 at the connection between the second movable arm 32 and the other second movable arm 32 is mounted below the other second movable arm 32, and the output shaft of the first drive motor 321 is connected to the other second movable arm 32 in a transmission manner. The first drive motor 321 drives the other second movable arm 32 to rotate relative to the other second movable arm 32. The first drive motor 321 at the connection between the other second movable arm 32 and the tray 4 is mounted below the other second movable arm 32, and the output shaft of the first drive motor 321 is connected to the tray 4 in a transmission manner. The first drive motor 321 drives the tray 4 to rotate relative to the other second movable arm 32.

[0046] In some embodiments, within areas with short transfer distances, the robotic arm 3 includes a first movable arm 31 and a second movable arm 32. One end of the second movable arm 32 is rotatably connected to the first movable arm 31, and the other end of the second movable arm 32 is rotatably connected to the pallet 4. The rotation angle between the second movable arm 32 and the first movable arm 31 is 60°-300°, and the rotation angle between the pallet 4 and the second movable arm 32 is 0°-360°. Choosing a second movable arm 32 design saves costs and improves transfer efficiency. A first drive motor 321 is provided at the connection points between the second movable arm 32 and the first movable arm 31, and at the connection points between the second movable arm 32 and the pallet 4 to drive their rotation. The location and transmission connection method of the first drive motor 321 are similar to those in the above embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0047] In some embodiments, in areas with excessively long transfer distances, the robotic arm 3 includes a first movable arm 31 and multiple second movable arms 32, with three or more second movable arms 32 arranged sequentially and rotatably connected to each other. One end of the second movable arm 32 located at the head is rotatably connected to the first movable arm 31, and one end of the second movable arm 32 located at the tail is rotatably connected to the tray 4. The rotation angle between the second movable arm 32 located at the head and the first movable arm 31 is 60°-300°, the rotation angle between adjacent second movable arms 32 is 10°-350°, and the rotation angle between the tray 4 and the second movable arm 32 located at the tail is 0°-360°, thus having a wider range of applications. A first drive motor 321 is provided at the connection points between the second movable arm 32 and the first movable arm 31, the second movable arm 32 and the tray 4, and the second movable arm 32 and the second movable arm 32, respectively, to drive their rotation. The location and transmission connection method of the first drive motor 321 are similar to those in the above embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0048] It should be noted that the aforementioned rotation angle can be selected from other suitable rotation ranges according to actual needs.

[0049] It should be noted that each connection point is equipped with a first drive motor 321, meaning that the rotation angle between each movable arm can be independently controlled. This allows for precise adjustment of the angle and position of the tray 4 based on the specific location and target placement point of the material, ensuring accurate placement and significantly improving the precision of material handling. Different construction materials vary in size, shape, and weight, and their target locations also differ. This design enables the robotic arm 3 to flexibly adapt to these variations, enhancing its adaptability and versatility. Furthermore, it possesses fault isolation capabilities; when one drive motor fails, it does not affect the normal operation of the other drive motors, ensuring that even with partial drive motor failures, the robotic arm 3 can still complete basic material handling tasks, guaranteeing the continuity of the construction process.

[0050] In this embodiment, a movable bearing 21 is fitted onto the support column 2, or more specifically, a movable bearing 21 is fitted onto the cylinder. The first movable arm 31 has a clearance groove 311 for avoiding the movable bearing 21. The clearance groove 311 fits snugly against the outer wall of the movable bearing 21. The movable bearing 21, fitted onto the support column 2, allows for faster and more convenient rotation between the first movable arm 31 and the support column 2 during rotation. This significantly reduces the resistance during rotation of the first movable arm 31, reduces wear between components, and extends the service life of the equipment. The clearance groove 311 also facilitates the assembly of the movable arm and the movable bearing 21. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the movable bearing 21 is an oil-free bearing. Oil-free bearings use embedded solid lubricant or self-lubricating materials, eliminating the need for periodic lubrication addition or replacement, significantly reducing maintenance costs.

[0051] In order to facilitate the rotation between the support column 2 and the first movable arm 31, a drive assembly 5 may be provided in some embodiments. The drive assembly 5 is used to drive the first movable arm 31 to rotate relative to the support column 2. The drive assembly 5 includes a mounting bracket 51, a second drive motor 52, a first drive gear 53 and a first driven gear 54. The mounting bracket 51 is mounted on the first movable arm 31.

[0052] Specifically, the mounting bracket 51 includes a fixing member 511, a connecting member 512, and an assembly member 513. The connecting member 512 is used to connect the fixing member 511 and the assembly member 513. The fixing member 511, the connecting member 512, and the assembly member 513 are Z-shaped. The connecting member 512 is bolted to the bottom of the first movable arm 31. The second drive motor 52 is mounted on the assembly member 513. The first drive gear 53 is drivenly connected to the output shaft of the second drive motor 52, and the first drive gear 53 is located between the assembly member 513 and the bottom of the first movable wall. The first driven gear 54 is sleeved on the outer surface of the movable bearing 21. The first drive gear 53 and the first driven gear 54 are meshed together. The first movable arm 31 rotates relative to the support column 2. Power is transmitted by the meshing of the first drive gear 53 and the first driven gear 54. The gear transmission has high transmission efficiency and can effectively transmit the power output by the second drive motor 52 to the first movable arm 31, reducing power loss during transmission.

[0053] In some embodiments, to facilitate the transport of materials by the pallet 4 and the placement of materials between floor slabs, a longitudinal moving component 6 is also included. The longitudinal moving component 6 is mounted on the base 11. The longitudinal moving component 6 includes a fixed seat 61, a third drive motor 62, a second drive gear 63, a fixed sleeve 64, a lead screw 65, a second driven gear 66, and a mounting sleeve 67. The fixed seat 61 is fixedly mounted above the base 11, and the interior of the fixed seat 61 is hollow, forming an accommodating space. The third drive motor 62 is mounted on the top of the fixed seat 61, and the output shaft of the third drive motor 62 extends into the interior of the fixed seat 61. The second drive gear 63 is mounted inside the fixed seat 61 and is drively connected to the output shaft of the third drive motor 62. The fixed sleeve 64 is mounted on the top of the fixed seat 61 and is horizontally arranged with the third drive motor 62. To improve the stability of the fixed sleeve 64, the fixed sleeve 65... 4. The fixed sleeve 64 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the cylinder. The fixed sleeve 64 is hollow inside and has openings at both ends. One end of the lead screw extends into the fixed seat 61, and the other end is located in the fixed sleeve 64. The second driven gear 66 is assembled to one end of the lead screw 65 located inside the fixed seat 61. The second driven gear 66 meshes with the second driving gear 63. When the second driven gear 66 rotates, it drives the lead screw 65 to rotate synchronously. The mounting sleeve 67 is at least partially sleeved on the outer surface of the lead screw 65 and moves longitudinally relative to the lead screw 65. In other words, the mounting sleeve 67 is located between the lead screw 65 and the fixed sleeve 64, and the mounting sleeve 67 extends out of the fixed sleeve 64 and connects to the bottom surface of the movable bearing 21. With this design, when the lead screw 65 rotates, it will drive the mounting sleeve 67 to move longitudinally, thereby driving the movable bearing 21 to move longitudinally, and then driving the robotic arm 3 to move, thus achieving the longitudinal movement effect of the robotic arm 3.

[0054] Specifically, the vertical displacement of the robotic arm 3 is between 0-20cm. This design enables the pallet 4 to transport materials and place materials between floor slabs. Furthermore, it reduces load fluctuations on the robotic arm 3 and the pallet 4, extending fatigue life. The third drive motor 62 is a reversible motor, capable of driving the mounting sleeve 67 to rise or fall vertically. The third drive motor 62 drives the second drive gear 63, which in turn drives the second driven gear 66, which is connected to the second drive gear 63, to rotate, ultimately causing the lead screw 65 to rotate. The gear transmission has a precise transmission ratio, ensuring that the rotational motion of the third drive motor 62 is accurately converted into the rotational motion of the lead screw 65, reducing errors in the power transmission process. The mounting sleeve 67 is fitted onto the outer surface of the lead screw 65. When the lead screw 65 rotates, the mounting sleeve 67 moves linearly along the axis of the lead screw 65, pushing the sliding bearing to move, thus achieving the longitudinal movement of the robotic arm 3.

[0055] The supporting column 2 is also equipped with a guide plate 22, which is opposite to the fixed base 61. The guide plate 22 has at least two clearance holes 221, and a guide rod 222 passes through it. One end of the guide rod 222 is connected to the movable bearing 21, allowing the guide rod 222 to move longitudinally relative to the guide plate 22. The guide plate 22 and the guide rod 222 work together to provide precise guidance for the longitudinal movement of the movable bearing 21, ensuring that the movable bearing 21 does not shift or wobble during longitudinal movement, thus guaranteeing the stability of the entire robotic arm 3 during longitudinal movement. When the mounting sleeve 67 drives the movable bearing 21 to move longitudinally, the guide rod 222 will move longitudinally relative to the guide plate 22.

[0056] In this embodiment, to achieve automated operation, a control device is also included. This control device is electrically connected to the first drive motor 321, the second drive motor 52, the third drive motor 62, and the support column 2. The control device controls the operation of these motors. Through a pre-set program, the control device controls the movement of the first drive motor 321, the second drive motor 52, the third drive motor 62, and the support column 2 to move the materials on the pallet 4 to the required position on the floor. This enables automated material transfer, reducing the workload and labor intensity of workers.

[0057] In other embodiments of this utility model, a vertical transport device is also provided, employing the aforementioned robotic arm 3 transfer device. Specifically, the vertical transport device is used to lift materials to a higher position. The vertical transport device includes an identification module. When the identification module identifies the position of the pallet 4, the first drive motor 321, the second drive motor 52, the third drive motor 62, and the support column 2 can be controlled by the control device to transfer the materials on the vertical transport device to the floor slabs.

[0058] In summary, the robotic arm 3 transfer device and the vertical transport device having the same provided by this utility model have the following technical effects:

[0059] With a wide range of applications and a retractable support column design, the equipment can adapt to building structures with different floor heights and floor slab spacings, enhancing its stability, versatility, and flexibility.

[0060] With a wide operating range, the robotic arm 3 is mounted on the support column 2 and can rotate horizontally. Combined with the design of the pallet 4, the equipment can transfer materials in a large space, improving work efficiency.

[0061] The placement effect is good. The longitudinal movement component 6, through the cooperation of the third drive motor 62, the second drive gear 63, the second driven gear 66 and the lead screw 65, realizes the longitudinal movement control of the robotic arm 3, ensuring the precise placement of materials.

[0062] 4. High degree of automation, reducing human intervention throughout the process.

[0063] The technical means disclosed in this utility model are not limited to those disclosed in the above embodiments, but also include technical solutions composed of any combination of the above technical features. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
