[0002] Robotic arms are automated devices that mimic certain movements and functions of the human hand and arm to grasp, move objects, or operate tools according to a fixed program. They are used in virtually every area of ​​automobile manufacturing.

[0003] Current robotic arms generally consist of a main body for executing commands and operating components (such as grippers). The commands can only be executed within the working range of the robotic arm itself. When long-distance transfer is required, the robotic arm cannot perform the corresponding grasping and transfer operations, and its use is still limited. Utility Model Content

When long-distance transportation is required, the base of the robotic arm can be installed on the AGV trolley, and the male and female heads of the robotic arm and the AGV trolley are connected to complete the signal transmission. The AGV trolley can drive the robotic arm to move over long distances, thereby completing long-distance operations.

[0013] 2. In this utility model, a second female connector is reserved at the output end of the robotic arm. During assembly, the second male connector of the operating component is inserted into the second female connector and fixed to complete the connection. In actual use, different operating components can be selected according to the workpiece being processed. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0019] Reference Figure 1-3 A robotic arm device for automobile manufacturing includes an AGV trolley 1 and a robotic arm 5. The top surface of the AGV trolley 1 is provided with a male connector, and the bottom end of the robotic arm 5 has a base 2. The base 2 is provided with a female connector 6 that is adapted to the male connector. The base 2 and the AGV trolley 1 are fixed together by multiple locking parts 3, so that the robotic arm 5 and the AGV trolley 1 can be detachably combined. When long-distance transportation is required, the base 2 of the robotic arm 5 can be installed on the AGV trolley 1 by correspondingly locking parts 3. At the same time, the male and female connectors of the robotic arm 5 and the AGV trolley 1 are connected to complete the transmission of signals and electricity. The AGV trolley 1 can drive the robotic arm 5 to move over long distances, thereby completing long-distance operations.

[0020] The AGV trolley 1 and the robotic arm 5 can also be used separately. The connecting head 6 is placed inside the base 2 and will not affect the installation of the robotic arm 5 in other positions.

[0021] In addition, the AGV trolley 1 is a commonly used device in the existing automation field. It can move according to a predetermined distance. Its specific structure will not be described in detail here.

[0022] Furthermore, the output end of the robotic arm 5 is equipped with an operating component 9 for performing corresponding operations.
