Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of robotic arm technology, and in particular to a robotic end-effector gripping mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] The description in this section provides only background information related to the disclosure of this utility model and does not constitute prior art.
[0003] Currently, manual handling is used in the transportation of hot-pressed automotive parts. When manually handling the boxes, workers often use both hands to clamp them directly. They use their fingers to clamp one side of the box, pull one end to the side, and then grip the other side to lift and move the box. However, workers will get tired during long-term handling, which poses a safety risk. In addition, the box handling process requires one person, which is time-consuming, inefficient, and costly.
[0004] It should be noted that the above introduction to the technical background is only for the purpose of providing a clear and complete explanation of the technical solutions of this utility model and facilitating understanding by those skilled in the art. It should not be assumed that these technical solutions are known to those skilled in the art simply because they have been described in the background section of this utility model. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a robot end-effector gripping mechanism that can improve handling efficiency and safety during the handling process, in order to address the shortcomings of the existing technology.
[0006] This application discloses a robot end effector gripping mechanism, including:
[0007] The main body has a first robotic arm and a second robotic arm connected to both ends. The end of the first robotic arm is connected to a first clamping assembly, and the end of the second robotic arm is connected to a second clamping assembly.
[0008] The first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly are used to clamp the two sides of the box body. Both the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly include a power source, a slide groove, a slide rail, an upper clamping plate, and a lower clamping plate. The side of the power source is provided with a slide groove along the vertical direction of the body. The upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate are both installed in the slide groove through the slide rail. The power source drives the slide rail to move along the slide groove, thereby realizing that the power source drives the upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate to move towards each other or in opposite directions in the slide groove. When the upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate move towards each other, the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly can clamp the box body; when the upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate move in opposite directions, the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly can release the box body.
[0009] Furthermore, in the aforementioned robot end-effector gripping mechanism, the two sides of the housing have gripping grooves that are recessed radially inward, and multiple housings are stacked along the vertical direction of the main body.
[0010] Furthermore, in the aforementioned robot end-effector gripping mechanism, the upper clamping plate includes a first clamping plate parallel to the lower clamping plate and a second clamping plate perpendicularly disposed to the first clamping plate. The first clamping plate is capable of abutting against the top of the housing, and the second clamping plate is capable of abutting against the inner wall of the housing.
[0011] Furthermore, in the aforementioned robot end-effector gripping mechanism, the first gripping plate has a gripping surface facing the lower gripping plate, and the lower gripping plate has a bearing surface at one end facing the upper gripping plate, the bearing surface being able to fit against the inner wall of the gripping groove.
[0012] Furthermore, in the aforementioned robot end-effector gripping mechanism, both the gripping surface and the bearing surface are provided with anti-slip protrusions.
[0013] In summary, the structure adopted in this embodiment of the present invention has the following advantages:
[0014] The robot end effector gripping mechanism described in this utility model allows the robot to move to the storage location of the box. The power source simultaneously drives the upper and lower clamping plates to move in opposite directions to clamp the box or move in opposite directions to release the box. The first and second clamping assemblies in this mechanism are activated simultaneously, clamping both sides of the box at the same time. This enables the robot's two arms to lift and transport the box. After placing the box in the appropriate position, the first and second clamping assemblies are released to continue transporting the next layer of boxes. This improves transport efficiency and enhances safety during transport.

[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown in the figure, this application discloses a robot end effector gripping mechanism, including:
[0026] The body 1 has a first robotic arm 2 and a second robotic arm 3 connected to both ends. The end of the first robotic arm 2 is connected to a first clamping assembly 4, and the end of the second robotic arm 3 is connected to a second clamping assembly 5.
[0027] The first clamping assembly 4 and the second clamping assembly 5 are used to clamp the two sides of the housing 6. Both the first clamping assembly 4 and the second clamping assembly 5 include a power source 11, a sliding groove 12, a slide rail 13, an upper clamping plate 14, and a lower clamping plate 15. The side of the power source 11 is provided with a sliding groove 12 along the vertical direction of the main body 1. The upper clamping plate 14 and the lower clamping plate 15 are both installed in the sliding groove 12 through the slide rail 13. The power source 11 drives the slide rail 13 to move along the sliding groove 12, thereby realizing that the power source 11 drives the upper clamping plate 14 and the lower clamping plate 15 to move towards each other or in opposite directions in the sliding groove 12. When the upper clamping plate 14 and the lower clamping plate 15 move towards each other, the first clamping assembly 4 and the second clamping assembly 5 can clamp the housing 6. When the upper clamping plate 14 and the lower clamping plate 15 move in opposite directions, the first clamping assembly 4 and the second clamping assembly 5 can release the housing 6.
[0028] Specifically, in this embodiment, the two sides of the box body 6 have clamping grooves 61 that are recessed inward along their radial direction, and the opening direction of the clamping grooves 61 faces their outer wall, which facilitates the clamping of the first clamping clamp assembly 4 and the second clamping clamp assembly 5. Multiple boxes 6 are stacked along the vertical direction of the body 1.
[0029] Specifically, refer to Figures 3 to 5 In this embodiment, the upper clamping plate 14 includes a first clamping plate 141 parallel to the lower clamping plate 15 and a second clamping plate 142 perpendicularly arranged to the first clamping plate 141. The first clamping plate 141 can abut against the top of the box 6, and the second clamping plate 142 can abut against the inner wall of the box 6.
[0030] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first clamping plate 141 has a clamping surface facing the lower clamping plate 15, and the lower clamping plate 15 has a bearing surface at one end facing the upper clamping plate 14. The bearing surface can fit against the inner wall of the clamping groove 61.
[0031] Specifically, in this embodiment, both the clamping surface and the bearing surface are provided with anti-slip protrusions. The anti-slip protrusions can better clamp the box 6, increase the friction between the box 6 and the upper clamping plate 14 and the lower clamping plate 15, maintain clamping stability, and prevent the box 6 from slipping during clamping and transportation.
[0032] With the above structure, the robot moves to the storage location of the box 6. The power source 11 simultaneously drives the upper clamping plate 14 and the lower clamping plate 15 to move towards each other to clamp the box 6 or to move in the opposite direction to release the box 6. The first clamping assembly 4 and the second clamping assembly 5 in this mechanism are activated at the same time, clamping both sides of the box 6, so that the robot's two arms can lift and transport the box 6. After placing the box 6 in the corresponding position, the first clamping assembly 4 and the second clamping assembly 5 are released to continue transporting the next layer of box 6. The robot end gripping mechanism provided in this embodiment can improve the transport efficiency and the safety during the transport process.
