A feeding manipulator for washing machine production

Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of robotic arms, and more particularly to a loading robotic arm for washing machine production. It includes a base, a support frame connected to the top side of the base, a first hydraulic cylinder connected to the top side of the support frame, a robotic arm body connected to the drive end of the first hydraulic cylinder, a base plate connected to the bottom side of the base, and a positioning seat connected to the outside of the base. When placing equipment, this utility model activates the second hydraulic cylinder to move the base plate, thereby lifting the base in the opposite direction and causing the casters to move away from the ground. The base plate increases the contact area with the ground, thus improving placement stability. Subsequently, when the positioning seat and the stop seat are engaged, the first and second insertion holes are aligned. Then, by rotating the adjusting bolt, the stop plate and the insertion rods at both ends are pushed to engage with the first and second insertion holes, thus reinforcing the structure. This improves support stability and reduces operating costs. The structure is highly stable and easy to operate.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of robotic arms, and more particularly to a loading robotic arm for washing machine production. Background Technology

[0002] A robotic arm is a type of robot powered by electric motors, hydraulics, pneumatics, or other energy sources. It is capable of performing heavy, repetitive, high-precision, and high-risk tasks, typically possessing multi-degree-of-freedom motion capabilities, and can replace manual labor. Robotic arms are generally used in assembly, handling, and processing operations on industrial production lines.

[0003] According to a search, Chinese patent document publication number CN222920542U discloses a loading robot for washing machine production. It employs an adjustable base plate for stable support. Specifically, through a moving mechanism and pulleys, when the first motor drives the first screw to rotate, either the pulleys or the support plate can contact the ground. If the robot malfunctions, it can be adjusted to have the pulleys in contact with the ground, allowing for replacement with a working robot. While this support adjustment method facilitates maintenance, it involves multiple motors and threaded rods for adjustment. Since the threaded rods are exposed to the environment, long-term use requires periodic maintenance and cleaning, resulting in significant wear and tear, increasing operating costs and cleaning difficulty. Furthermore, the support stability is relatively poor. Additionally, during lifting and lowering, the screw controls the robot's movement, leading to poor support and loading stability when the parts are heavy. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the problems of existing washing machine feeding robots that use multiple motors and threaded rods for adjustment, which require periodic maintenance and cleaning due to the exposed threaded rods, resulting in significant wear and tear, increased operating costs and cleaning difficulty, and poor support stability, and also to address the issue of the current feeding robots using screws to control the lifting and lowering of the robot during operation, which leads to poor support and feeding stability when the parts are heavy.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a loading robot for washing machine production, including a base, a support frame connected to the top side of the base, a first hydraulic cylinder connected to the top side of the support frame, a robot body connected to the drive end of the first hydraulic cylinder, a base plate connected to the bottom side of the base, a positioning seat connected to the outside of the base, a reinforcing component connected to the positioning seat, and a stabilizing component connected between the robot body and the base.

[0006] The base plate also includes a second hydraulic cylinder connected to the bottom side of the base, a positioning post connected to the outside of the base plate, and a first insertion hole opened on the base.

[0007] The reinforcement assembly includes a baffle, a limiting rod connected to the left side of the baffle, an extension plate connected to the left end of the limiting rod, a plug rod fixedly connected to the right side of the extension plate, and an adjusting bolt movably connected to the left side of the baffle. The size and shape of the plug rod match the number one insertion hole.

[0008] The stabilizing component includes an adjusting seat, a connecting rod movably connected to the adjusting seat, and a guide sleeve connected to the bottom side of the adjusting seat.

[0009] Preferably, the top side of the base has a groove, a guide rod is fixedly installed inside the groove, and a guide sleeve is movably installed outside the guide rod. A spring is provided between the guide sleeve and the groove, and a caster wheel is provided on the bottom side of the base.

[0010] Preferably, a suction cup is provided on the bottom side of the robotic arm body, and a stabilizing sleeve is fixedly installed on the outer side of the robotic arm body. A total of four sets of stabilizing sleeves are provided, and the stabilizing sleeves are movably installed on the outer side of the support frame.

[0011] Preferably, a side plate is fixedly installed between the positioning seats, a positioning hole is opened on a fixed side of the positioning seat, and a second insertion hole is opened on the left side of the positioning seat, the size and shape of the positioning hole matching the positioning post.

[0012] Preferably, the left side of the side plate is provided with a through hole and a threaded hole, a limit rod is movably installed inside the through hole, and an adjusting bolt is threadedly connected to the inside of the threaded hole.

[0013] Preferably, a stop is fixedly installed at the top of the positioning post, and a through groove is provided on the bottom side of the base plate. A total of four through grooves are provided, and the size and shape of the through grooves are matched with the casters.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. When placing the equipment, the second hydraulic cylinder is activated to push the base plate to move, thereby lifting the base in the opposite direction and moving the casters away from the ground. Under the action of the base plate, the contact area with the ground is increased, which facilitates and improves the stability of the placement. Then, when the positioning seat and the stop seat are in contact, the first and second insertion holes are aligned. Then, by rotating the adjusting bolt, the stop plate and the insertion rods at both ends are pushed to engage with the first and second insertion holes, thereby strengthening the structure. This helps to improve the stability of the support and reduce the cost of use. The structure is highly stable and the operation is convenient and quick.

[0016] 2. The adjustment base plate and the robot body of this utility model are driven by corresponding hydraulic cylinders. Compared with the use of threaded rod transmission, this reduces wear and the difficulty of later cleaning and maintenance. At the same time, during the lifting and loading process of the robot body, it is driven by the first hydraulic cylinder. The movement of the robot body drives the adjustment seat and guide sleeve to move simultaneously. This not only improves the adjustment stability during lifting, but also improves the support effect and increases the load-bearing capacity when the stabilizing components are at a vertical angle. Moreover, the spring and guide rod not only facilitate reset, but also improve the movement stability of the guide sleeve. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] A loading robot for washing machine production, according to Figures 1-6As shown, it includes a base 1, a support frame 2 connected to the top side of the base 1, a first hydraulic cylinder 3 connected to the top side of the support frame 2, a robot body 4 connected to the drive end of the first hydraulic cylinder 3, a base plate 5 connected to the bottom side of the base 1, a positioning seat 6 connected to the outside of the base 1, a reinforcing component 7 connected to the positioning seat 6, and a stabilizing component 8 connected between the robot body 4 and the base 1.

[0027] The base plate 5 also includes a second hydraulic cylinder 501 connected to the bottom side of the base 1, a positioning post 502 connected to the outside of the base plate 5, and a first insertion hole 503 opened on the base 1.

[0028] The reinforcing component 7 includes a baffle 701, a limiting rod 702 connected to the left side of the baffle 701, an extension plate 703 connected to the left end of the limiting rod 702, an insertion rod 7031 fixedly connected to the right side of the extension plate 703, and an adjusting bolt 704 movably connected to the left side of the baffle 701. The size and shape of the insertion rod 7031 match the first insertion hole 503.

[0029] The stabilizing component 8 includes an adjusting seat 801, a connecting rod 802 movably connected to the adjusting seat 801, and a guide sleeve 803 connected to the bottom side of the adjusting seat 801.

[0030] according to Figures 1-2 As shown, a groove 101 is provided on the top side of the base 1, a guide rod 102 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the groove 101, and a guide sleeve 803 is movably installed on the outer side of the guide rod 102. A spring is provided between the guide sleeve 803 and the groove 101, and a caster wheel 103 is provided on the bottom side of the base 1.

[0031] It should be noted that the base plate 5 and the robot body 4 are driven by corresponding hydraulic cylinders. Compared with the use of threaded rod transmission, this reduces wear and the difficulty of later cleaning and maintenance. At the same time, during the lifting and loading process of the robot body 4, it is driven by the first hydraulic cylinder 3. The movement of the robot body 4 drives the adjustment seat 801 and the guide sleeve 803 to move. This not only improves the adjustment stability during lifting, but also improves the support effect and increases the load-bearing capacity when the stabilizing component 8 is at a vertical angle. Moreover, the spring and guide rod 102 not only facilitate reset, but also improve the movement stability of the guide sleeve 803.

[0032] according to Figures 1-3 As shown, a suction cup 401 is provided on the bottom side of the robot body 4, and a stabilizing sleeve 402 is fixedly installed on the outside of the robot body 4. A total of four sets of stabilizing sleeves 402 are provided, and the stabilizing sleeves 402 are movably installed on the outside of the support frame 2.

[0033] according to Figures 1-2As shown, a side plate 601 is fixedly installed between the positioning seats 6. A positioning hole 602 is opened on the fixed side of the positioning seat 6, and a second insertion hole 603 is opened on the left side of the positioning seat 6. The size and shape of the positioning hole 602 match the positioning post 502.

[0034] It should be noted that the suction cup 401 facilitates loading, and the stabilizing sleeve 402 moves on the outside of the support frame 2, further improving the stability of the robot body 4 when it moves. At the same time, the second insertion hole 603 and the positioning post 502 facilitate the later lifting of the universal wheel 103, improving stability and providing a convenient reinforcement function.

[0035] according to Figures 2-5 As shown, a through hole 6011 and a threaded hole 6012 are respectively opened on the left side of the side plate 601. A limit rod 702 is movably installed on the inner side of the through hole 6011, and an adjusting bolt 704 is threadedly connected to the inner side of the threaded hole 6012.

[0036] according to Figures 1-4 As shown, a stop 5021 is fixedly installed on the top of the positioning post 502, and a through groove 504 is provided on the bottom side of the base plate 5. There are a total of four through grooves 504, and the size and shape of the through grooves 504 match the universal wheel 103.

[0037] It should be noted that when placing the equipment, the second hydraulic cylinder 501 is activated to push the base plate 5 to move, thereby lifting the base 1 in the opposite direction. This causes the caster wheel 103 to move away from the ground. Under the action of the base plate 5, the contact area with the ground is increased, which facilitates and improves the stability of the placement. Subsequently, when the positioning seat 6 and the stop seat 5021 are in contact, the first insertion hole 503 and the second insertion hole 603 are aligned. Then, by rotating the adjusting bolt 704, the stop plate 701 and the insertion rods 7031 at both ends are pushed to engage with the first insertion hole 503 and the second insertion hole 603, thereby strengthening the structure. This helps to improve the stability of the support and reduce the cost of use. The structure is highly stable and the operation is convenient and quick.

[0038] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
