Technical Field
The utility model relates to the technical field of robot processing equipment, in particular to a polishing robot for a steel test piece.
Background
The metallographic component and the metallographic structure of the steel material play a decisive role in the performance of the steel, and along with the fact that large-scale steel structural members are more and more widely applied in the fields of machining, bridges and buildings, the online detection requirements on the metallographic component and the structure of the steel material are more and more increased.
The grinding and polishing are very important steps of pretreatment before metallographic component and metallographic structure detection is carried out on a steel material, and the grinding and polishing robot is designed aiming at the problems that a steel test piece is low in grinding and polishing efficiency, difficult to guarantee quality and poor in safety when the steel test piece is ground and polished manually.
SUMMERY OF THE UTILITY MODEL
The utility model aims to solve the problem that when a steel test piece is polished, the test piece may fly out to hurt people due to infirm clamping to cause accidents.
In order to achieve the purpose, the utility model provides the following technical scheme: the grinding and polishing robot has three degrees of freedom, which are respectively: the upper arm pitching freedom degree, the lower arm pitching freedom degree and the waist rotating freedom degree can realize the compressing and separating actions of the test piece on the abrasive belt through the upper arm pitching freedom degree and the lower arm pitching freedom degree, and the conversion of the test piece between a polishing station and a test piece feeding and discharging station can be realized through the waist rotating freedom degree.
Preferably, the parallelogram mechanism ensures that the lower arm connecting rod of the robot is always parallel to the abrasive belt, the parallelogram mechanism ensures that the upper arm connecting rod of the robot is always parallel to the abrasive belt, and the upper arm connecting rod of the robot is always parallel to the triangular palm through pre-installation, so that the postures of the robot claw in lifting the test piece are always consistent, and the quality of polishing the upper surface of the test piece is ensured.
Preferably, a driving motor is not needed on the paw, the push-pull rod is contacted with the bottom surface of the steel test piece, fingertips of three fingers of the robot are contacted with the side surface of the test piece, the pressure of the test piece on the push-pull rod is transmitted to a connecting rod of a parallelogram mechanism consisting of the fingertips and a hand connecting rod by a traction connecting rod, the connecting rod is the fingertips (301), the plane where the L-shaped fingertips of the three fingers are contacted with the side surface of the test piece is always kept parallel, and two-dimensional position constraint on a grinding and polishing plane is generated on the steel test piece;
compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
1) the upper arm pitching freedom degree and the lower arm pitching freedom degree both adopt parallelogram mechanisms, so that a triangular palm of the robot is always parallel to the abrasive belt working surface, the polishing efficiency is improved, and the polishing quality is ensured.
2) The acting force of the robot paw on the test piece is changed from the traditional clamping force generated by the motor into the finger holding force generated by the compression elastic counter force of the spring, so that the accident caused by the fact that the test piece cannot be clamped due to insufficient driving force of the motor is avoided, and the problem that the steel test piece is seriously damaged due to the fact that the driving force of the motor is too large is also avoided. The limitation to the position of the test piece is realized by adopting a finger holding mode, but the test piece is allowed to rotate slightly, the slight rotation is combined with the parallel grinding motion of the abrasive belt, a complex grinding and polishing motion curve is formed on the surface of the test piece, the surface roughness value can be effectively reduced, and the grinding and polishing quality of the test piece is improved.
3) When the waist rotates to move in a joint manner, the claw holds and lifts the steel test piece to be separated from the polishing station, no reverse pressure of the abrasive belt to the push-pull rod exists, the push-pull rod moves upwards under the action of the spring, the L-shaped finger is separated from the contact with the steel test piece to be opened, and at the moment, an operator can safely take the polished test piece from the robot claw, and the operation safety is improved because the waist rotates to move in a joint manner, and the abrasive belt is far away from the polishing station where the abrasive belt is located.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1-3, a grinding and polishing robot includes three degrees of freedom, namely, an upper arm pitching degree of freedom, a lower arm pitching degree of freedom, and a waist rotation degree of freedom. The upper arm pitching freedom degree is realized by parts such as an upper arm connecting rod 401, an upper arm swing rod 402, a worm wheel 403, a worm 404, a stepping motor 405 and the like. The lower arm pitch degree of freedom is realized by a lower arm link 501, a lower arm swing link 502, a waist joint extension rod 503, a worm wheel 504, a stepping motor 505, a worm 506 and other parts.
In this embodiment, the stepping motor 505 outputs torque to drive the worm 504, and drives the lower arm swing link 502 to rotate via the worm wheel 504, and since the waist rotation joint extension bar 503, the two lower arm swing links 502 and the lower arm link 501 form a parallelogram mechanism, the lower arm link 501 is ensured to move parallel to the abrasive belt all the time; the stepping motor 405 outputs torque to drive the worm 404, and drives the upper arm swing rods 402 to rotate through the worm wheel 404, and the lower arm connecting rod 501, the two upper arm swing rods 402 and the upper arm connecting rod 401 form a parallelogram mechanism, so that the upper arm connecting rod 401 is ensured to move parallel to the abrasive belt all the time.
Referring to fig. 4-5, the paw of the grinding and polishing robot is implemented by a fingertip 301, a hand connecting rod 302, a push-pull rod 303, a traction connecting rod 304, a triangular palm 305, a three-way connecting plate 306, an end cap 307, a guide piston 308, a spring 309 and the like.
In this embodiment, the robot gripper 3 includes three finger mechanisms uniformly mounted on the triangular palm 305, each finger mechanism is a parallel four-bar linkage composed of two hand links 302 and an L-shaped fingertip 301, and the parallel four-bar linkage keeps the L-shaped fingertips parallel all the time. The three-fork connecting plate 306 is connected with the push-pull rod 303, the push-pull rod 303 is connected with the guide piston 308, the push-pull rod 303 drives the three-fork connecting plate 306 to move up and down, further, the traction connecting rod 304 of the parallel four-bar linkage mechanism is driven to swing, the L-shaped fingertips 301 of the finger mechanism move, when the push-pull rod 303 moves upwards, the three L-shaped fingertips 301 are kept parallel and far away from each other to loosen the steel sample, and when the push-pull rod 303 moves downwards, the three L-shaped fingertips 301 are kept parallel and close to each other to clamp the steel sample. The downward movement of the push-pull rod 303 is a result of the reaction force exerted by the sample on the sanding belt, and the upward movement of the push-pull rod 303 is a result of the sample being pushed by the spring 309 after it has been released from the sanding belt. The end cap 307 ensures that the push-pull rod 303 does not come out of the triangular palm due to the elastic force of the spring.
In summary, the following steps: according to the polishing robot, the robot paw is used for grabbing a steel sample piece in a holding mode, and the paw is free of a driving element. The upper arm and the lower arm adopt a parallelogram mechanism to ensure that the triangular palm is always parallel to the abrasive belt. The sample piece held by the paw is pressed on the grinding wheel by means of the driving motors of the upper arm and the lower arm, three fingers of the paw tightly press the side face of the sample piece, and a closed space is formed by the three fingers, the abrasive belt and the upper surface of the push-pull rod, so that accidents caused by flying of the sample piece are prevented.
