Illustratively, as shown in fig. 5 and fig. 6, in the present embodiment, a side of the second connecting structure 20 away from the opening 22 is provided with an elastic component 24, the connecting hole 23 includes an introduction section 231, a limiting section 232 and an accommodating section 233 which are sequentially communicated, an end of the introduction section 231 away from the limiting section 232 communicates with the opening 22, the first connecting structure 10 is driven to move toward a side close to the second connecting structure 20, the connecting element 12 can move through the introduction section 231 and slide into the limiting section 232 and press the elastic component 24 to store energy, the first connecting structure 10 is driven to rotate relative to the second connecting structure 20, the connecting element 12 can rotate through the limiting section 232 and slide into the accommodating section 233, and the elastic component 24 releases energy to force the first connecting structure 10 to move toward a side away from the second connecting structure 20.
It should be noted that, an elastic component 24 is disposed in the second housing 21, and the elastic component 24 is disposed on a side of the second housing 21 away from the opening 22, so that when the first connecting structure 10 and the second connecting structure 20 are aligned and plugged, when a side of the first housing 11 away from the mechanical arm extends into the second housing 21 through the opening 22, the elastic component 24 can be abutted and contacted. The connecting hole 23 includes a guiding section 231, a limiting section 232 and an accommodating section 233 which are sequentially communicated, so that the connecting member 12 can move through the guiding section 231 and slide into the limiting section 232 in the process of aligning and plugging the first connecting structure 10 and the second connecting structure 20, and one end of the guiding section 231, which is away from the limiting section 232, is communicated with the opening 22, so as to avoid interference of the side wall of the second housing 21 to the connecting member 12 which moves through the guiding section 231 and slides into the limiting section 232.
Thus, in the process of aligning and inserting the first connection structure 10 and the second connection structure 20, firstly, the mechanical arm drives the first connection structure 10 to move towards the side close to the second connection structure 20, when the side of the first housing 11 away from the mechanical arm gradually extends into the second housing 21 through the opening 22, the connection piece 12 can synchronously move and slide into the introduction section 231 through the communication part of the introduction section 231 and the opening 22 until the side of the first housing 11 away from the mechanical arm is in abutting contact with the elastic component 24, the mechanical arm additionally applies pressing force to drive the side of the first housing 11 away from the mechanical arm to continuously extend into the second housing 21 and extrude the elastic component 24 for energy storage, the connection piece 12 can synchronously move and slide into the limiting section 232 through the introduction section 231 until the side of the first housing 11 away from the mechanical arm cannot continuously extend into the second housing 21, and at this time, the elastic component 24 is compressed to the limiting state; then, the mechanical arm additionally applies a rotational force to drive the first connecting structure 10 to rotate relative to the second connecting structure 20 (the rotational direction is based on the fact that the connecting piece 12 can rotate through the limiting section 232 and slide into the accommodating section 233), the connecting piece 12 can synchronously rotate and rotate through the limiting section 232 and slide into the accommodating section 233, so that the rotational force additionally applied by the mechanical arm can be removed, at this time, the elastic component 24 releases energy to force the first connecting structure 10 to move towards one side away from the second connecting structure 20, and through the limiting effect of the accommodating section 233 on the connecting piece 12 and the limiting section 232 on the connecting piece 12, the first connecting structure 10 and the second connecting structure 20 cannot be separated under the condition that external force is not input, so that the live working robot can use an end tool to perform live working.
It should be understood that the process of uninstalling the first connecting structure 10 and the second connecting structure 20 only needs to reverse the above steps, and will not be described herein again. In the prior art, in the live working process of the live working robot, the tail end tool may be suddenly shut down, the electric quantity is too low or exhausted, the tool is out of control and the like, so that the hidden danger that the continuous working condition cannot be met is generated, the intervention and the escaping can be performed only by means of manpower, in the application, the steps are only required to be reversely operated, and the escaping of the tail end tool in any scene can be realized through the mechanical arm. For greater conspicuity, the end of the coupling member 12 may be provided with a color indication to facilitate a user to remotely observe the actual condition of the quick-change device 100.
For example, as shown in fig. 6, in the present embodiment, the elastic component 24 includes two elastic pads 241 and at least one first elastic element 242 disposed between the two elastic pads 241, the elastic pad 241 away from the opening 22 is fixedly connected to a side of the second connecting structure 20 away from the opening 22, the elastic pad 241 near the opening 22 can be in contact with the first connecting structure 10, and an outer diameter of the elastic pad 241 is smaller than or equal to an inner diameter of the second connecting structure 20, so that an elastic force acting on the first connecting structure 10 is more uniform. The elastic pad 241 may be made of a material of the elastic pad 241 itself, and may also be made of an elastic material of the first elastic member 242, which is not limited herein. Illustratively, the elastic pad 241 is made of iron, and the elasticity of the elastic element 24 depends on the elasticity of the first elastic member 242. Regarding the fixing manner of the elastic component 24 and the second connecting structure 20, optionally, a magnetic material is disposed on a side of the second connecting structure 20 away from the opening 22, and the magnetic material and the elastic pad 241 are magnetically attracted to each other, so that not only is the connection between the elastic component 24 and the second connecting structure 20 reliable and stable ensured, but also the dismounting and the replacement of the elastic component 24 and the second connecting structure 20 are facilitated.
As shown in fig. 1 to 13, on the basis of the automatic replacement mode, the quick-change device 100 provided by the present application can also replace the end tool through a manual replacement mode, specifically, in this embodiment, the quick-change device 100 further includes an operating mechanism 30 in transmission connection with the connecting element 12, and the driving operating mechanism 30 can drive the connecting element 12 to slidably extend out of the first connecting structure 10 or slidably retract into the first connecting structure 10, so as to lock or unlock the first connecting structure 10 and the second connecting structure 20.
As shown in fig. 7 to 13, the operating mechanism 30 includes a transmission rod 31 slidably disposed in the first connecting structure 10, the transmission rod 31 extends along a connecting line direction between the first connecting structure 10 and the second connecting structure 20, one end of the transmission rod 31 close to the connecting member 12 is provided with a supporting surface 311 for supporting a first end of the connecting member 12, and the transmission rod 31 is driven to slide in the first connecting structure 10, so as to drive a second end of the connecting member 12 to slidably extend out of the first connecting structure 10 or slidably retract into the first connecting structure 10 through the supporting surface 311.
It should be noted that the operating mechanism 30 includes a transmission rod 31, the transmission rod 31 extends along a connecting line of the first connecting structure 10 and the second connecting structure 20, and an abutting surface 311 is disposed at an end of the transmission rod 31 close to the connecting element 12, so that the abutting surface 311 can always be in abutting contact with the first end of the connecting element 12 no matter whether the quick-change device 100 is in the locked state or the unlocked state. In the actual use process, when the external force drives the transmission rod 31 to slide in the first connection structure 10, the abutting surface 311 drives the second end of the connection member 12 to slide and extend out of the first connection structure 10, so that the first connection structure 10 and the second connection structure 20 are locked, and the abutting surface 311 drives the second end of the connection member 12 to slide and retract into the first connection structure 10, so that the first connection structure 10 and the second connection structure 20 are unlocked, and thus the end tool can be released under manual intervention.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 7 and 10, a distance between a side of the abutting surface 311 close to the connecting member 12 (or a side of the abutting surface 311 facing away from the robot arm) and a side wall of the first connecting structure 10 is greater than a distance between a side of the abutting surface 311 facing away from the connecting member 12 (or a side of the abutting surface 311 close to the robot arm) and a side wall of the first connecting structure 10, so that when the transmission rod 31 slides towards the side facing away from the robot arm (simply when the transmission rod 31 is lifted), the abutting surface 311 can drive the second end of the connecting member 12 to slide and extend out of the first connecting structure 10, so that the first connecting structure 10 and the second connecting structure 20 are locked, and when the transmission rod 31 slides towards the side close to the robot arm (simply when the transmission rod 31 descends), the abutting surface 311 can drive the second end of the connecting member 12 to slide and retract into the first connecting structure 10, so that the first connecting structure 10 and the second connecting structure 20 are unlocked.
As shown in fig. 7 to 13, in the present embodiment, the operating mechanism 30 further includes a second elastic member 32 accommodated in the first connecting structure 10, two ends of the second elastic member 32 are respectively fixedly connected to the connecting member 12 and the first connecting structure 10, and the second elastic member 32 is used for providing a restoring force for the movement of the connecting member 12 relative to the first connecting structure 10. The second elastic element 32 can be sleeved on the connecting element 12, so that the movement of the second elastic element 32 is guided and limited by the connecting element 12.
Thus, when the transmission rod 31 slides towards the side away from the mechanical arm (in short, when the transmission rod 31 is lifted up), the abutting surface 311 can drive the second end of the connecting member 12 to slide and extend out of the first connecting structure 10, in this process, the second elastic member 32 is subjected to a squeezing action to store energy, when the transmission rod 31 slides towards the side close to the mechanical arm (in short, when the transmission rod 31 descends), the squeezing action exerted on the connecting member 12 by the abutting surface 311 is gradually reduced, and the second elastic member 32 releases energy to force the second end of the connecting member 12 to slide and retract into the first connecting structure 10.
Illustratively, as shown in fig. 13, a slide way is disposed on a side wall of the first housing 11, the slide way penetrates along a connecting direction of the side wall of the first housing 11 and an axis of the transmission rod 31 (or a sliding cavity for sliding the transmission rod 31 in the first connecting structure 10), and the connecting element 12 is slidably disposed in the slide way.

The first end of connecting piece 12 can be fixed and be provided with the fixed block, the fixed block slides and sets up in the slide, one side that the fixed block deviates from sliding block 14 can slide and stretch out outside the slide or slide and retract back to the slide in, or, the diameter of the first end of connecting piece 12 can be greater than the diameter of the second end of connecting piece 12, one side that the first end of connecting piece 12 deviates from sliding block 14 can slide and stretch out outside the slide or slide and retract back to the slide in, so as to ensure that the first end of connecting piece 12 can support with supporting the face 311 all the time and hold, can also increase the first end of connecting piece 12 and support the area of contact between the face 311, and simultaneously, can also make things convenient for the connection of second elastic component 32. It should be noted that the diameter of the fixing block (or the diameter of the first end of the connecting element 12) should be smaller than or equal to the inner diameter of the slideway to ensure that the connecting element 12 can slide smoothly in the slideway.
As shown in fig. 7, 9, 10, 12 and 13, optionally, the number of the connecting members 12 and the number of the second elastic members 32 are two, the connecting members 12 and the second elastic members 32 are disposed in a one-to-one correspondence, and the two connecting members 12 are axially symmetrically distributed along the transmission rod 31, so as to improve the stability and reliability of the connection between the first connecting structure 10 and the second connecting structure 20.

Optionally, a distance between the locking surface 341 and the outer wall of the first connection structure 10 is smaller than a distance between the unlocking surface 342 and the outer wall of the first connection structure 10, so that when the operating handle 35 abuts against the locking surface 341, the operating rod 33 can drive the transmission rod 31 to lift up, thereby driving the second end of the connection member 12 to extend out of the first connection structure 10, and when the operating handle 35 abuts against the unlocking surface 342, the operating rod 33 can drive the transmission rod 31 to descend, thereby driving the second end of the connection member 12 to retract into the first connection structure 10.
As shown in fig. 8, 9, 11 and 12, in the present embodiment, the operating mechanism 30 further includes a third elastic member 36 accommodated in the first connecting structure 10, two ends of the third elastic member 36 are fixedly connected to the operating rod 33 and the first connecting structure 10, respectively, and the third elastic member 36 is used for providing a restoring force for the movement of the operating rod 33 relative to the first connecting structure 10.
