[0023] This invention proposes a multi-joint adaptive parallel robot arm structure.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the multi-joint adaptive parallel robot arm structure includes a hydraulic cylinder 101, a first end cap 102, a second end cap 103, a piston rod 104, a piston 105, a first connecting seat 106, a second connecting seat 107, and a joint connector 108. The first end cap 102 and the second end cap 103 are respectively installed on the two ends of the hydraulic cylinder 101. A pressure chamber is provided inside the hydraulic cylinder 101. The piston 105 is slidably embedded in the pressure chamber. A first sealing ring 1051 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the piston 105. The first sealing ring 1051 slidably abuts against the inner peripheral wall of the pressure chamber. The lower end of the piston rod 104 is fixedly connected to the piston 105. The front end wall of the first end cap 102 is provided with a first through hole 1021. The piston rod 104 is slidably inserted through the first through hole 1021. The upper end walls of the first end cap 102 and the second end cap 103 are recessed with a connection port 109 that communicates with the pressure chamber. The connection port 109 is connected to the hydraulic pump through an oil pipe. The first connecting seat 106 and the second connecting seat 107 are respectively detachably disposed on the front end of the piston rod 104 and the rear end wall of the second end cap 103. The joint connector 108 is rotatably connected to the first connecting seat 106 and the second connecting seat 107 in the left and right and up and down directions, respectively.

[0025] Specifically, a second sealing ring (not shown) is embedded in the inner peripheral wall of the first through hole 1021. The second sealing ring slides against the piston rod 104 to achieve a good sealing effect.

[0026] Specifically, the rear end of the first connecting seat 106 is recessed with a insertion hole 1061, and the front end of the piston rod 104 is provided with an insertion part 1041. The insertion part 1041 is detachably embedded in the insertion hole 1061, making the assembly and disassembly between the piston rod and the first connecting seat more convenient and quick.

[0027] Specifically, it also includes a fastening bolt 110. The outer wall of the insertion hole 1061 is provided with a plurality of opening slots 1062 extending along the length direction. The two sides of the opening slot 1062 are provided with threaded holes (not shown) and bolt holes (not shown). The fastening bolt 110 passes through the bolt hole and is screwed into the threaded hole, making the assembly and disassembly between the piston rod and the first connecting seat more convenient and quick.

[0028] Specifically, it also includes a connecting block 111, which can be rotatably connected to the first connecting seat 106 and the second connecting seat 107 in the upper and lower positions respectively, and the connecting block 111 is rotatably connected to the joint connector 108 in the left and right positions respectively.

[0029] Specifically, it also includes a rotating shaft 112, and the upper and lower ends of the front end walls of the first connecting seat 106 and the second connecting seat 107 are respectively provided with first connecting plates 113. The left and right ends of the rear end wall of the joint connector 108 are respectively provided with second connecting plates 114. The side walls of the front ends of the first connecting plate 113 and the second connecting plate 114 are each provided with a second through hole 115. The left, right and upper and lower side walls of the connecting block 111 are respectively provided with third through holes (not shown). The rotating shaft 112 is fixedly connected to the second through hole 115 respectively, and the rotating shaft 112 is rotatably embedded in the third through hole respectively.

[0030] Specifically, it also includes self-lubricating copper sleeves 116, which are respectively embedded in the third through hole. Multiple columnar graphite solid lubricants 1161 are embedded in the inner circumferential wall of the self-lubricating copper sleeves 116. A rotating shaft 112 is rotatably embedded in the self-lubricating copper sleeves 116, and the shaft 112 slides against the columnar graphite solid lubricants 1161. When the shaft rotates, the columnar graphite solid lubricants on the surface of the self-lubricating copper sleeves form a thin lubricating film on the contact surface. This film can continuously reduce the coefficient of friction and effectively slow down direct contact between metals, thereby reducing wear and increasing service life. It requires no external lubrication device or frequent maintenance, can maintain lubrication for a long time, effectively improves load-bearing capacity, reduces impact and vibration from mechanical contact, and effectively reduces equipment operating noise. Even in situations where traditional lubricating oils cannot form a stable oil film due to reciprocating, oscillating, or frequent start-stop operations, stable operation can still be guaranteed.

[0031] Specifically, it also includes fastening screws 117. A disc 1121 protrudes from the rear end of the rotating shaft 112. The fastening screws 117 pass through the disc 1121 and are screwed onto the first connecting plate 113 and the second connecting plate 114, which facilitates the installation and fixing of the rotating shaft.

[0032] Specifically, the working principle and process of this utility model are as follows:

[0033] Parallel robotic arms are hydraulically driven, using pressurized hydraulic fluid as the power transmission medium. An electric motor drives an oil pump to output pressurized oil, converting the mechanical energy supplied by the motor into the pressure energy of the hydraulic fluid. The pressurized oil then passes through pipes and control devices into the hydraulic cylinder, pushing the piston rod to move, thus enabling the arm to extend, retract, and lift. This process converts the pressure energy of the hydraulic fluid back into mechanical energy. The system offers good stability, high rigidity, strong load-bearing capacity, and excellent flexibility, allowing it to adapt to various complex environments.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
