The first embodiment of the adaptive matrix material picking system based on visual detection provided by the invention comprises a picking device 9, a visual system 7 and a control device. The pick-up device 9 and the vision system 7 are respectively connected with the control device in a communication way.
The pick-up device 9 comprises a driving assembly and at least two pick-up components 1, and the pick-up components 1 are distributed in a matrix shape along an X direction and a Y direction, wherein the X direction is perpendicular to the Y direction. Specifically, the X direction, the Y direction and the Z direction are perpendicular to each other, the pickup device 9 moves along the Z direction, the Z direction can be a vertical direction, and when the material picking device is used, the material is located below the pickup device 9.
In the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the number of the pickup members 1 is 16, and the pickup members are arranged in a 4 × 4 matrix. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of the picking members 1 may be other, and accordingly, the arrangement may be other, for example, 15 picking members 1 are arranged in a 3 × 5 matrix, or 9 picking members 1 are arranged in a1 × 9 matrix, or in a 3 × 3 matrix.
Since the picking members 1 are always arranged in a matrix, the picking members 1 in the same position in the X direction, i.e., in the same row, move synchronously, and the picking members 1 in the same position in the Y direction, i.e., in the same row, move synchronously.
When at least two rows of picking parts 1 are arranged in the X direction, the row spacing between every two adjacent rows of picking parts 1 can be the same or not; when at least two rows of the pickup members 1 are arranged in the Y direction, the row pitches between every two adjacent rows of the pickup members 1 may be all the same or may not be all the same.
The control device is used for receiving the shooting result of the vision system 7 and controlling the driving component to operate according to the shooting result so as to enable the driving component to drive the picking part 1 to move along the X direction and/or the Y direction. The vision system 7 can acquire characteristic data such as the shape, the gravity center position and the angle of the material by using a vision detection technology, reasonably calculates the position of the material by using a vision algorithm, and improves the grabbing precision of the picking device 9.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 10 and 11, the vision system 7 may be used to photograph the material patterns, and the position relationship between the pickup units 1 is adjustable, and specifically, the position of the pickup unit 1 may be adjusted according to the material patterns and the weight of the material, so that enough pickup units 1 gather at the position of the material S to pick up the material, thereby ensuring the pickup capability of the material S and reducing the possibility of falling of the material. In addition, the picking parts 1 are distributed in a matrix shape, so that the arrangement regularity is high, and the planning of positions is facilitated.

As shown in fig. 2, the sliders 2 at the same position in the X direction are slidably connected to the same X-axis link 61, and the sliders 2 at the same position in the Y direction are slidably connected to the same Y-axis link 62. In addition, as shown in fig. 2, the driving assembly includes driving devices respectively connected to the two link assemblies 6 to respectively drive the X-axis link 61 to move in the X direction and the Y-axis link 62 to move in the Y direction.

Each central hinge point 52 is connected to a respective linkage arrangement. The parallelogram linkage structures 53 are adopted, the linkage motion stability is high, and in addition, when all the parallelogram linkage structures 53 are set to be the same structure, the motion speeds of all the connecting rod structures in the connecting rod assembly 6 are the same.
Further, as shown in fig. 5 and 8, the driving means includes a rotary driver 4, and the rotary driver 4 is connected to the corresponding driving link 63 through the lead screw nut assembly 41.

Each Y-axis link 62 is slidably connected to a slide 31 extending in the Y-direction on the housing 3. The limiting of the slide way 31 can improve the moving stability of the connecting rod structure. In addition, the vision system 7, the drive assembly, may be attached to the outer surface of the housing 3.
