The rotatable connection may be implemented in various manners, for example, by a pin shaft, or by a bearing, so as to achieve relative rotation of the corresponding connection parts, which is not limited in this application.
Further, as shown in fig. 3, the first rotating member 202A is provided with a first receiving groove 2011, and the second rotating member 203A is located in the first receiving groove 2011 and is rotatably connected to the first rotating member 202A by a pin or the like. An end of the second rotating member 203A away from the jaw arm 205A is spaced apart from the first rotating member 202A, and one side of the end is in contact with the first rotating member 202A through the second elastic member 421, and the other side is in contact with the second distance measuring sensor 422.
In one embodiment, the first distance measuring sensor 412 is located on a side of the corresponding first rotating member 202A facing away from the first elastic member 411. Optionally, the first distance measuring sensor 412 is a contact type displacement sensor, but not limited thereto, and any other displacement sensor capable of detecting the distance change between the first rotating member and the clamping jaw fixing frame is also allowable.
In another embodiment, the first flexibility compensation mechanism 2041A further comprises a first elastic member 411, a baffle 413, a first distance measuring sensor 412 and a first rotating member 202A. The first elastic member 411 is provided between the corresponding first rotating member 202A and the jaw holder 201A, and is set to be elastically deformed when the first rotating member 202A rotates with respect to the jaw holder 201A. The baffle 413 is disposed on the clamping jaw fixing frame 201A and located on a side of the first rotating member 202A away from the first elastic member 411. For example, the baffle 413 is mounted on the outer side of the left jaw holder 201A away from the right jaw holder 201B by a fixing member such as a screw. In this way, after the first elastic element 411 and the first rotating element 202A are sequentially mounted on the left clamping jaw fixing frame 201A, the baffle 413 is mounted on the left clamping jaw fixing frame 201A, so that the assembly process of the flexible clamping mechanism is simplified.
The first distance measuring sensor 412 is disposed on the baffle 413, and configured to sense a distance between the first rotating member 202A and the baffle 413, and output a brake warning signal when the distance increases to a target value.
Here, the baffle 413 is fixedly connected to the jaw holder 201A, and the distance between the first rotating member 202A and the baffle 413, which is sensed by the first distance measuring sensor 412, changes, that is, the distance between the first rotating member 202A and the jaw holder 201A changes.
As shown in fig. 5, the clamping jaw fixing frame 201A is provided with a second receiving groove 2021, and the first rotating element 202A is located in the second receiving groove 2021 and is rotatably connected to the clamping jaw fixing frame 201A by a pin. An end of the first rotating member 202A, which is far away from the jaw arm 205A, is spaced from the jaw fixing frame 201A, and one side of the end is in contact with the jaw fixing frame 201A through the first elastic member 411, and the other side is in contact with the first distance measuring sensor 412 installed on the baffle 413.
In one embodiment, the second distance measuring sensor 422 is located on a side of the corresponding second rotating member 203A facing away from the second elastic member 421. Optionally, the second distance measuring sensor 422 is a contact displacement sensor. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and any other displacement sensor capable of detecting a change in the distance between the second rotating member and the first rotating member is also permissible.
Thus, when the clamping jaw arm 205A clamps the tool to move to the corresponding area of the machine tool spindle, if the tool holder of the tool is not concentric with the machine tool spindle due to the influence of the repeated positioning accuracy of the robot, so that the tool holder of the tool is in contact with the inner wall of a certain side of the tool holder mounting hole in the machine tool spindle, the machine tool spindle applies a reaction force to the tool holder, and then the reaction force is transmitted to the clamping jaw arm 205A, at this time, the first rotating member 202A and the second rotating member 203A rotate according to the force transmitted by the clamping jaw arm 205A, and therefore the first flexible compensation mechanism 2041A and the second flexible compensation mechanism 2042A respond.
Specifically, one side of the end of the second rotating member 203A, which is far from the gripper arm 205A, compresses the second elastic member 421, so that the other side of the end is out of contact with the second distance measuring sensor 422. When the distance from the end of the second rotating member 203A, which is out of contact with the second distance measuring sensor 422, to the second distance measuring sensor 422 is still within the detectable distance of the second distance measuring sensor 422, the tool held by the gripper arm 205A can continue to approach the spindle of the machine tool, so as to effectively compensate for the positioning deviation caused by the repeated positioning accuracy of the robot by using the elastic deformation of the second elastic member 421. When the distance from the end of the second rotating member 203A, which is separated from the contact of the second distance measuring sensor 422, to the second distance measuring sensor 422 exceeds the detectable distance of the second distance measuring sensor 422, the second distance measuring sensor 422 outputs a braking early warning signal, and transmits the system early warning signal to the control system of the robot, so that the robot timely controls the gripper arm 205A to stop moving according to the braking early warning signal.
When the first rotating member 202A rotates, one side of the end portion thereof away from the jaw arm 205A compresses the first elastic member 411, so that the other side of the end portion is out of contact with the first distance measuring sensor 412. When the distance from the end of the first rotating member 202A, which is out of contact with the first distance measuring sensor 412, to the first distance measuring sensor 412 or the baffle 413 is still within the detectable distance of the first distance measuring sensor 412, the tool held by the gripper arm 205A can continue to approach the spindle of the machine tool, so as to effectively compensate for the positioning deviation caused by the repeated positioning accuracy of the robot by using the elastic deformation of the first elastic member 411. When the distance from the end of the first rotating member 202A, which is out of contact with the first distance measuring sensor 412, to the first distance measuring sensor 412 or the baffle 413 exceeds the detectable distance of the first distance measuring sensor 412, the first distance measuring sensor 412 outputs a braking early warning signal, and transmits the braking early warning signal to a control system of the robot, so that the robot timely controls the gripper arm 205A to stop moving according to the braking early warning signal. Therefore, the tool clamped by the clamping jaw arm can be effectively prevented from further contacting with the machine tool spindle, the machine tool spindle is prevented from being damaged, and the safety of automatic operation of the robot is ensured.
In conclusion, the flexible clamping mechanism for the robot tail end can effectively compensate the positioning deviation of the robot tail end executing part caused by repeated positioning precision or error instructions, is also suitable for any scene needing accurate positioning, and can effectively reduce the risk of damage of a machine tool spindle particularly in the process of replacing a cutter by the robot, thereby improving the safety and reliability of automatic cutter replacement by the robot, further widening the application of the robot in the field of mechanical automatic processing, and being beneficial to improving the production efficiency of mechanical processing and reducing the production cost.
Further, the application provides a robot, include above a flexible fixture for the robot is terminal, still include the arm, the arm is connected and is used for the terminal flexible fixture of robot. The technical effect of the robot provided by the application is similar to that of the flexible clamping mechanism for the tail end of the robot provided by the application, and therefore the description is omitted.
