Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of robotic arm gripper replacement technology, and in particular to a quick-change tooling for robotic arm grippers. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of radioactive isotopes, sword-shaped robotic arms can be used to handle and manipulate radioactive materials, such as loading and unloading targets in reactors, and extracting and separating radioactive isotopes in subsequent processing.

[0003] Sword-type robotic arms can experience various malfunctions during long-term use in the production of radioactive isotopes (such as brittle breakage of the chuck pin, detachment of the chuck pin, inability to close the chuck, inability to open the chuck, misalignment of the chuck, etc.), thus disrupting radioactive isotope production operations. To avoid production disruptions, operators must repair the malfunctioning robotic arm. Repairing this requires opening the enclosure's shielding door and then the sealed glass door to replace the malfunctioning chuck. During this process, repair personnel are exposed to significant radiation, and there is also a risk of iodine-131 aerosol spreading into the production area. If the radiation dose to the enclosure is too high to allow for immediate repairs, production tasks may be affected, resulting in substantial economic losses. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a tooling for quick changing of the gripper of a robotic arm.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a quick-change tooling for a robotic gripper, including a base, a notch, cavity a and cavity b at the upper end of the base, cavity a and cavity b communicating with the notch, and grooves on the side walls of cavity a and cavity b.

[0006] Preferably, a loading plate is provided inside the notch.

[0007] Preferably, a handle is provided on the side of the base.

[0008] This utility model has the following advantages: The base is placed inside the box, and a complete sword-shaped robotic gripper head is placed in a cavity. The groove and the protrusion of the gripper are matched accordingly. When the gripper head of the sword-shaped robotic arm is damaged, the operator only needs to place the damaged gripper head in another cavity, remove the gripper head from the robotic arm, and then install the complete gripper head on the robotic arm. Therefore, it is not necessary to open the shielding door and the sealed glass door of the box. Replacement can be carried out simply by using the robotic arm, avoiding additional radiation damage to personnel. Attached Figure Description

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0013] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0014] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0015] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product of this utility model is in use, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly understood by those skilled in the art. They are only used for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first," "second," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0016] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components.

[0017] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, a quick-change tooling for a robotic gripper includes a base 1. The upper end of the base 1 has a notch 7, a cavity a4, and a cavity b6, which communicate with the notch 7. Preferably, a carrying plate 3 is provided inside the notch 7. Grooves 5 are formed on the side walls of cavities a4 and b6. The base 1 is placed inside a housing, and a intact sword-shaped robotic gripper is placed in one of the cavities, with the groove 5 corresponding to the protrusions on the gripper. When the gripper of the sword-shaped robotic gripper is damaged, the operator only needs to place the damaged gripper in another cavity, remove the gripper from the robotic gripper, and then install the intact gripper on the robotic gripper. This eliminates the need to open the housing shielding door and the sealed glass door; replacement can be performed simply by using the robotic gripper, avoiding additional radiation exposure to personnel. In this embodiment, the sword-shaped robotic gripper is an existing robotic gripper, and no improvements have been made. The process of removing and installing the gripper from the robotic gripper is consistent with existing methods.
