[0039] The left gripper mechanism 2 and the right gripper mechanism 32 of this application drive the two gripper plates 6 away from each other, so that the adsorption component 4 adsorbs the upper surface of the material. The left gripper mechanism 2 and the right gripper mechanism 32 drive the two gripper plates 6 closer to each other, so that the two gripper plates 6 grip the material. The anti-fall plate 7 is placed below the material, so that the anti-fall plate 7 supports the material from below, preventing the material from falling from the mechanical gripper during the movement of the material, and ensuring the safety of material transportation.
[0040] like Figures 5-9 As shown, the left gripper mechanism 2 includes: an adjusting plate 21, a first slide rail 22, a first slider 23, and a first cylinder 24;

[0044] In this embodiment, the first cylinder 24 can drive the adjusting plate 21 to move on the first slide rail 22, realizing the action of gripping and putting down the material. After the adsorption component 4 adsorbs the material, the material support cylinder 25 drives the gripper plate 6 to move downward on the material support slide rail 26, moving the anti-fall support plate 7 below the material, so that the anti-fall support plate 7 supports the material from below.
[0045] like Figures 5-9 As shown, the right gripper mechanism 32 includes: a sliding plate 31, a second slide rail 32, a second slider 33, and a second cylinder 34;

[0051] like Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes positioning component 5;
[0052] The positioning component 5 is used to position the material after it has been gripped by the clamping component.

[0056] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the frame 1 is provided with a connecting flange 12, which is used to connect the frame 1.
[0057] The mechanical gripper can be easily connected and fixed via the connecting flange 12.
[0058] In this embodiment, two sets of clamping components and adsorption components 4 are set on the frame 1, so that the mechanical gripper can clamp two materials at the same time, thereby improving the material movement efficiency.
[0059] Above, refer to Figures 1-11 This invention describes a fall-prevention mechanical gripper according to an embodiment of the present invention. The left gripper mechanism 2 and the right gripper mechanism 32 respectively drive the two gripper plates 6 away, causing the adsorption component 4 to adsorb the upper surface of the material.
