Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automation equipment technology, and in particular to a metal connecting pipe rotary material transfer mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the actual operation of automated assembly lines, material transfer and conveying operations are frequently required between various devices. The most common method for this is to use high-precision industrial robots. However, due to design differences in the inlet and outlet ports of different production equipment, the orientation of materials during output and input often differs. For example, the outlet port of the preceding process equipment may output materials horizontally, while the inlet port of the subsequent process equipment needs to receive materials vertically. This mismatch in orientation necessitates that the robot arm possess the ability to adjust the material's orientation during the transfer operation. Utility Model Content

The translation mechanism 200 is fixed to the top of the stand 100. The lifting mechanism 300 is connected to the translation mechanism 200 and moves the lifting mechanism 300 back and forth via the translation mechanism 200. The rotary gripper mechanism 400 is mounted on the lifting mechanism 300 and is used to lift and move the rotary gripper mechanism 400.

[0017] During material transfer, the translation mechanism 200 operates, moving the rotary gripper mechanism 400 to the preceding process equipment. The lifting mechanism 300 lowers the rotary gripper mechanism 400 to grab the material. After grabbing the material, the lifting mechanism 300 raises the rotary gripper mechanism 400. The rotary gripper mechanism 400 can then precisely adjust the placement angle and direction of the material according to the requirements of the next process. The translation mechanism 200 then moves the rotary gripper mechanism 400 to the subsequent process equipment, and the lifting mechanism 300 lowers the rotary gripper mechanism 400, ensuring that the material enters the subsequent process equipment in the correct posture, thereby guaranteeing the smooth operation of the entire production process.

The lifting cylinder 310 pushes and pulls the lifting frame 320 longitudinally, so that the rotating gripper mechanism 400 moves up and down with the lifting frame 320.

[0022] To ensure stability during the lifting process, the lifting mechanism 300 also includes a guide rod 330. The bottom end of the guide rod 330 is connected to the top of the lifting frame 320.
