Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of automation technology, and in particular to floating mechanisms in the X and Y directions. Background Technology

[0002] A floating mechanism is a flexible mechanism that allows mechanical components to self-adjust within a certain range. It is primarily used to compensate for assembly errors, absorb vibrations, and adapt to misalignment. Common types include spring-loaded, pneumatic / hydraulic, and magnetic floating mechanisms, and are widely used in robot end effectors, precision assembly, automated production lines, and connector docking. This mechanism provides flexible buffering through minute axial, radial, or angular displacements, while also possessing an automatic reset function. It reduces the system's requirements for precision fit, minimizes impact wear, and improves docking accuracy and equipment reliability.

[0003] In related technologies, in the traditional field of industrial automation, robotic arms typically adopt a rigid connection structure, that is, the joints and end effectors are fixedly connected by high-rigidity mechanical components to ensure motion accuracy and repeatability.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors believe that due to factors such as machining errors, fixture positioning deviations, or environmental vibrations, there may be slight deviations in the alignment between workpieces during the actual assembly process, which may lead to hard collisions during processing. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an X and Y floating mechanism, which solves the technical problem that due to factors such as machining errors, fixture positioning deviations or environmental vibrations, there may be slight deviations in the alignment between workpieces during actual assembly, which may lead to hard collisions during processing.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] The X and Y direction floating mechanism includes an upper mold base and a lower mold base. An X-direction floating component and a Y-direction floating component are provided between the upper mold base and the lower mold base. The X-direction floating component and the Y-direction floating component enable the lower mold base to float on the upper mold base. A positioning component is provided on the upper mold base for positioning the lower mold base.

[0008] Furthermore, a connecting plate is provided between the lower mold base and the upper mold base, and the X-axis floating component includes a first X-axis slider and a second X-axis slider. An X-axis roller is connected between the first X-axis slider and the second X-axis slider. The first X-axis slider and the second X-axis slider are slidably connected through the X-axis roller. The first X-axis slider is locked on the connecting plate, and the second X-axis slider is locked on the lower mold base.

[0009] Furthermore, a first guide groove is provided on the lower mold base, and the first X-axis slider and the second X-axis slider are embedded in the first guide groove.

[0010] Furthermore, the Y-axis floating component includes a first Y-axis slider and a second Y-axis slider, with a Y-axis roller connecting the first Y-axis slider and the second Y-axis slider. The first Y-axis slider and the second Y-axis slider are slidably connected through the Y-axis roller. The first Y-axis slider is locked to the connecting plate, and the second Y-axis slider is locked to the upper mold base.

[0011] Furthermore, a second guide groove is provided on the upper mold base, the second guide groove is perpendicular to the first guide groove, and the first Y-axis slider and the second Y-axis slider are embedded in the second guide groove.

[0012] Furthermore, the positioning component includes a positioning cylinder, one end of which is provided with a positioning pin, and the lower mold base is provided with a positioning hole, the positioning pin being inserted into the positioning hole.

[0013] Furthermore, a first guide slope is formed on the lower mold base, and a second guide slope is formed on the positioning pin. The first guide slope and the second guide slope are arranged in parallel and spaced apart.

[0014] In summary, this application includes at least the following beneficial technical effects of the floating mechanism in the X and Y directions:

[0015] 1. The upper mold base and the lower mold base are connected by X-axis floating components and Y-axis floating components. When the upper mold base and the lower mold base do not need to float, the positioning component positions the lower mold base to prevent relative movement between the two mold bases. During processing, the positioning component unlocks the lower mold base. Then, during the processing, the upper mold base and the lower mold base float through the X-axis floating components and Y-axis floating components, thereby reducing hard collisions caused by factors such as machining errors, fixture positioning deviations or environmental vibrations, as well as alignment deviations between workpieces during actual assembly.

[0016] 2. By setting up the first X-axis slider, the second X-axis slider, and the X-axis roller, along with the first Y-axis slider, the second Y-axis slider, and the Y-axis roller, the ease of floating between the upper mold base and the lower mold base is improved.

[0017] 3. By setting the first guide groove and the second guide groove, the stability of the floating of the upper mold base and the lower mold base is improved. Attached Figure Description

[0028] Reference Figure 3Furthermore, the first X-axis slider 21 is locked onto the connecting plate 11, and the second X-axis slider 22 is locked onto the lower mold base 12. Additionally, the lower mold base 12 has a first guide groove 13, which is parallel to the sliding direction of the first X-axis slider 21 and the second X-axis slider 22, and the first X-axis slider 21 and the second X-axis slider 22 are embedded within the first guide groove 13. In use, the lower mold base 12 slides along the first guide groove 13 on the connecting plate 11.

[0029] The Y-axis floating component 3 includes a first Y-axis slider 31 and a second Y-axis slider 32. A Y-axis roller 33 is disposed between the first Y-axis slider 31 and the second Y-axis slider 32, and several Y-axis rollers 33 are disposed between the first Y-axis slider 31 and the second Y-axis slider 32. In use, the first Y-axis slider 31 and the second Y-axis slider 32 are slidably connected through the Y-axis rollers 33.

[0030] Furthermore, the first Y-axis slider 31 is locked onto the connecting plate 11, and the second Y-axis slider 32 is locked onto the upper mold base 1. Additionally, the upper mold base 1 has a second guide groove 14, the length direction of which is perpendicular to the length direction of the first guide groove 13, and the second guide groove 14 is parallel to the sliding direction of the first Y-axis slider 31 and the second Y-axis slider 32. The first Y-axis slider 31 and the second Y-axis slider 32 are embedded within the second guide groove 14.
