[0002] Automotive glass includes sunroofs, windshields, and rear windshields. The size and curvature of the glass vary depending on the car and the installation location. If a robotic arm is used to pick up and install the glass, then a robotic arm adapted to different glass sizes and curvatures is required for the picking and installation operation.

[0003] Chinese Patent No. CN219854622U discloses a robotic gripper for automatic installation of automotive glass, belonging to the field of robotic gripper technology. The mounting base plate has several elastic suction devices and limiting support devices on both sides; each of the elastic suction devices and limiting support devices has a clamping device at its top, which is fixed to the bottom of the mounting base plate. The advantages of this invention are: the mounting base plate is equipped with several elastic suction devices and limiting support devices, both of which are retractable and can conform to the curvature of the glass, allowing for the suction of glass of different sizes and curvatures, providing strong compatibility and reducing costs.

[0004] However, the above technical solution only involves setting several elastic suction devices and limiting support devices on the mounting base plate. Both of these devices are retractable and can conform to the curvature of the glass, allowing them to pick up glass of different sizes and curvatures. However, when the glass is picked up by the suction cup, factors such as dirt and gaps can affect the suction effect of the suction cup, and there is a risk of it falling off when the suction effect of the suction cup decreases.

The sliding ring 14 is slidably connected to the moving rod 10, and the two ends of the connecting rod 15 are respectively connected to the rotating rod 12 and the sliding ring 14. In an optional embodiment, the sliding ring 14 is selected as a self-lubricating bushing; the self-lubricating bushing can reduce the damage caused by friction and prevent it from affecting the normal sliding in the later stage.

[0019] In summary, when this utility model is used, the mounting plate 1 is connected to external mechanical equipment or a robotic arm. When gripping is required, the mechanical equipment moves the mounting plate 1 close to the windshield of a car or other glass, and the vacuum suction cups 3 come into contact with the glass. As the mounting plate 1 moves, each of the first gas springs 2 is compressed, thereby making full contact between the multiple vacuum suction cups 3 and the glass. A negative pressure or vacuum is generated by a vacuum device or an external vacuum device, causing the vacuum suction cups 3 to adhere to the glass. At the same time, the second telescopic device 9 is activated, driving the moving rod 10 to move, which in turn drives the rotating rod 12 to rotate around the hinge point with the first gas spring 2 as the center. The rotating rod 12 drives the support... The support 13 rotates so that it is positioned below the glass. If the vacuum suction cup 3 fails to fully adsorb the glass, causing it to fall accidentally, the glass will come into contact with the baffle 17 and be cushioned and limited by its own gravity and impact by stretching the second gas spring 16, preventing it from falling and posing a risk to the surrounding environment and personnel. At the same time, depending on the size of the glass, the first telescopic device 4 is activated to drive the connecting plate 5 and the adjusting plate 6 to move horizontally. The position of the adjusting groove on the adjusting plate 6 changes, pushing multiple sliding seats 7 to move horizontally along the guide groove 8, adjusting the distance between the vacuum suction cups 3 to accommodate different sizes of automotive glass.

[0020] 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 thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
