Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material handling technology, and in particular to a clamp and material handling system. Background Technology

[0002] A material handling system is an automated material conveying device that uses actuators, combined with vision positioning or sensor detection, to achieve precise gripping, directional movement, and positioning of workpieces.

[0003] In current workpiece handling systems, a moving mechanism is typically used to transport workpieces one by one to one side of a handling device. The handling device then removes the workpieces from the top of the moving mechanism and delivers them to the target position. Subsequently, the moving mechanism resets to perform the next handling operation. However, in this step-by-step operation mode (movement → handling → reset), the moving mechanism experiences idle time while waiting for the handling device to complete the transfer and reset itself, resulting in an extended cycle time. Therefore, this solution proposes a fixture and handling system to address the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-6 Shown:

[0027] Example 1: A handling system, comprising:

[0028] Clamping arm 2;

[0029] The movable component 3 is located on top of the clamping arm 2 and is used to move the position of the clamping arm 2.

[0030] Support component 4 includes a support arm 402 disposed on one side of the moving component 3. Multiple support plates 401 are disposed on the top of the support arm 402, and a rotating component is disposed on the bottom of the support arm 402 for rotating the support arm 402.

[0031] The rotating component includes a rotary motor 403 disposed at the bottom of the support arm 402, and a second bracket 404 disposed at the bottom of the rotary motor 403 for supporting the rotary motor 403.

[0032] It should be noted that the clamping arm 2 adopts a modular mechanical clamping design, mainly composed of clamping plates and a displacement system. Its core displacement system includes a fixed base, a bidirectional screw, a guide rod, and a servo motor. The guide rod is inserted into the clamping plate, and its linear constraint ensures that the clamping plate can only move axially, completely eliminating radial deflection, thus limiting the movement direction of the clamping plate. The threads on the bidirectional screw are symmetrically arranged from the middle, and the two clamping plates are respectively threaded onto both sides of the bidirectional screw, connecting to the threads in two different directions. The bidirectional screw is connected to the output end of the servo motor via a coupling, enabling the servo... The motor drives the bidirectional screw to rotate in both directions. During operation, the servo motor drives the bidirectional screw to rotate, and the rotating bidirectional screw drives two screw-connected but non-rotating clamping plates to move in different directions. By moving in different directions, the servo motor clamps and fixes the items. The working surfaces of the clamping plates are inlaid with adaptive magnetic friction plates. During the clamping stage, an additional adsorption force is generated by a controllable magnetic field excited by an electromagnetic coil. This not only enhances the gripping stability of ferromagnetic workpieces, but also protects the surface of precision workpieces through non-contact clamping. This design is used to assist in fixing after the clamping plates are tightened.

[0033] The rotating component has two support arms 402 on its top sides, each with a support plate 401 equipped with a suction cup for fixing the position of the clamp. The rotary motor 403 is a standard servo motor, which rotates the support arms 402 at its top. Controlled by the servo motor's controller, each support arm 402 rotates 180 degrees, allowing the rotary motor 403 to rotate a product closer to the clamping arm 2 when one support arm 402 is loaded with a product. 402 is rotated to the side away from clamping arm 2. At the same time, the product on the support arm 402 on the side close to clamping arm 2 is clamped and transported by clamping arm 2, while the product is placed on the support arm 402 away from clamping arm 2. Then, by rotating, the support arm 402 with the product is rotated to the side close to clamping arm 2. The support arm after feeding is rotated away from clamping arm 2. The above steps are repeated to continuously collect and feed materials. By performing feeding and collecting materials in this way, the collecting and feeding are completed simultaneously. This design reduces the time required for the collecting and feeding steps.

[0034] Specifically, the two support arms 402 are used for receiving and feeding materials respectively. The clamping arm 2 holds the fixture, and the moving component 3 moves the product to the required position. This alternating receiving and feeding method reduces the feeding time.

[0035] Specifically, the moving component 3 includes a mounting plate 305 disposed on one side of the bearing arm 402. The mounting plate 305 is used for mounting the clamp. A moving module 304 is disposed on the top of the mounting plate 305. The moving module 304 is used to move the position of the mounting plate 305. A first bracket 307 is disposed on one side of the support component 4. A robotic arm 301 is fixedly connected to the top of the first bracket 307. A fixed frame 302 is fixedly connected to the output end of the robotic arm 301. The moving module 304 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed frame 302. A first motor 306 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 305. The first motor 306 is used to rotate the clamping arm 2. Sliding grooves 303 are symmetrically opened on the front and back of the fixed frame 302. The first motor 306 is inserted into the interior of the sliding grooves 303.

[0036] It should be noted that the robotic arm 301 is an existing device. The robotic arm 301 is an automated actuator that uses multi-joint coordinated motion. Its core working principle involves driving each joint axis with a servo motor or stepper motor, transmitting power in conjunction with a high-precision reducer (such as a harmonic reducer or RV reducer), and having a motion controller perform real-time inverse kinematics algorithms to convert the spatial trajectory of the end effector into angle commands for each joint. Its function is to replace manual labor in performing highly repetitive or high-precision production tasks, improving industrial automation and production consistency. The robotic arm 301 drives the fixed frame 302 at its output end to perform repetitive tasks. The movement repeatedly moves the fixed frame 302 and its bottom clamping arm 2 from the top of the support assembly 4 to the desired position, thus eliminating the need for manual handling and reducing labor costs. The bottom of the first support 307 is fixed to the ground with bolts, preventing it from moving off the ground. The first support 307 is connected to the robotic arm 301 with bolts, fixing the position of the robotic arm 301 and preventing displacement during use. The moving module 304 is a linear motion device, which achieves precise linear motion. The core working principle of the automated transmission mechanism for linear or curvilinear motion is to drive transmission components (such as ball screws, synchronous belts, or linear motors) with servo motors or stepper motors to convert rotary motion into high-precision linear displacement. This is achieved through linear guides or optical axis guiding mechanisms to ensure motion stability. The mounting plate 305 is fixedly connected to the output end of the moving module 304. During use, the moving module 304 directly moves the mounting plate 305 at its output end, which in turn moves the clamping arm 2. A guide rail is provided at the connection between the mounting plate 305 and the fixed frame 302, its core function being to provide high precision... The low-friction directional motion guidance transforms sliding friction into rolling friction through a ball or roller circulation structure, reducing motion resistance. Simultaneously, a pre-tightened track design eliminates gaps, ensuring the positioning accuracy and anti-eccentric load capacity of the mounting plate 305 when it moves linearly relative to the fixed frame 302. Its function is manifested in two aspects: first, constraining the degree of freedom of movement to prevent unexpected offset or torsion of the connection parts due to force; second, dispersing the structural load by reducing local stress through multi-point contact, improving overall rigidity, and preventing the mounting plate 305 from shifting in a non-designed direction at the bottom of the fixed frame 302 during use. This design restricts the movement direction of the clamping arm 2.The first motor 306 is an existing servo motor, which is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 305 with bolts to ensure the stability and reliability of the motor installation. A through hole is provided on the mounting plate 305, through which the output end of the first motor 306 passes and extends to the bottom of the mounting plate 305, directly connecting to the clamping arm 2 below and being fixed with bolts. When the clamping arm 2 needs to rotate, the first motor 306 is started, and the output shaft of the first motor 306 transmits power to the clamping arm 2, thereby driving the clamping arm 2 to achieve precise rotation control. This structural design not only ensures the high efficiency and stability of power transmission, but also meets the precise requirements of the clamping arm 2 for rotation angle and speed during operation through the precise control characteristics of the servo motor, improving the working accuracy and reliability of the entire device. The design of the servo motor enables the clamping arm 2 to rotate in both directions, improving the flexibility of the clamping arm 2. Through the design of the moving component 3, the synchronous rotation function of the clamping arm 2 during the movement is realized. Specifically, the moving component 3 organically combines linear displacement and rotational motion, so that the clamping arm 2 can complete the corresponding rotational action according to the operation requirements while moving in position. ;

[0038] It should be noted that the gripper 1 is used to fix the position of the product.
