Description
BACKGROUND OF THE
As the industrial automation develops, the application and demand of the electric gripper increases more and more, and the driving method of the conventional electric gripper is performed by the driving device in order to receive the operation command preset or inputted by the user, , The driving device outputs an operation command to the electric gripper to change the operation direction of the electric gripper only when the driving device receives the trigger signal.
However, this method not only complicates the circuit wiring of the drive apparatus, but also easily causes malfunction of the electric gripper. For example, the electric gripper may additionally receive a new motion command in the course of operation, or perform an open or close motion when the electric gripper is already in the open or closed state.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide an electric gripper which is capable of detecting an idle state of an electric gripper, There is provided a driving circuit for an electric gripper and a driving method thereof, which does not need to inform the electric gripper to execute an operation command by a trigger command, which controls the electric gripper to perform a new operation by checking whether the operation state of the electric gripper is different will be. Therefore, the drive circuit does not need to be provided with the trigger circuit of the electric gripper.
In order to achieve the above object, the driving method of the present invention is used in a drive circuit of an electric gripper. The driving method includes: first, providing a status signal generated according to an operating state of the electric gripper; When the state signal corresponds to the idle state, receiving a feedback signal that detects an operation command and an operation of the electric gripper; Finally, when the operation instruction and the operation of the electric gripper corresponding to the feedback signal are inconsistent, outputting the operation instruction.
In order to achieve the above object, the electric power gripper drive apparatus of the present invention includes a logic unit and a processing unit. The logic unit includes a state detection terminal, an instruction input terminal, a feedback terminal, and a logic output terminal. The state detection stage generates a state signal according to the operating state of the electric gripper. The command input terminal receives the operation command. The operation command drives the electric gripper to perform an operation. The processing unit includes two input terminals and one output terminal. The two input terminals of the processing unit are connected to the command input terminal and the logic output terminal of the logic unit, respectively. The output of the processing unit is connected to the feedback of the logic unit. The feedback unit of the logic unit generates a feedback signal according to the operation of the electric gripper. If the logic unit corresponds to the idle state of the electric gripper when the logic unit judges that the operation of the electric gripper corresponding to the operation command is inconsistent, the processing unit outputs an operation command.

The driving apparatus of the electric gripper of the present invention can determine the state of the electric gripper by the logic unit and can determine whether to output a new operation command according to the current state of the electric gripper, The device does not need to drive the electric gripper through separate trigger circuit (logic) signals and timing planning logic.
Also, the timer of the processing unit may be regarded as a filter because the timer of the processing unit delays the output of the new operation command to prevent an operation error due to the noise generated in the process of switching the two operation commands by the electric gripper. In addition, the processing unit may be one flip-flop without the noise at the time of switching two operations, and the timer (filter) may be omitted, so that the logic unit directly triggers the flip-flop of the processing unit and outputs the operation command. Therefore, the processing unit is not limited to that described in the present embodiment, and may be constituted by other elements that can be triggered and output by the logic unit.
Assuming that the voltage level is assumed as the state signal S S , the feedback signal S C and the operation command S N as shown in FIG. 4, for example, when the electric gripper is in the idle state, S S corresponds to the low level and the state signal S S corresponds to the high level when the electric gripper is not in the idle state and the instruction for opening the electric gripper is the high level And the command to close the electric gripper is low level. In the present embodiment, when the state signal S S is at a low level, it is determined that the electric gripper corresponds to the idle state. On the contrary, when the state signal S S is at the high level, .
To the status signal (S S) of the motor-driven gripper corresponds to the low level (idle state), and the logic unit receives the operation command (S N) (low level) to close the electric gripper, the operation command (S N) is If the feedback signal S C (high level) indicates that the electric gripper is in the open state, the operation corresponding to the operation command S N and the feedback signal Sc are inconsistent , The logic unit triggers the processing unit to delay the output of the operation command. Accordingly, when the feedback signal Sc changes from a high level to a low level and the electric gripper is changing its direction, the state signal S S changes from a low level to a high level, The signal S S returns to the idle state.
4, the state signal S S , the feedback signal S C , and the operation command S N further include three different timings, and a detailed description thereof will be described later. When the state signal of the electric gripper corresponds to a low level (idle state), the logic unit receives an operation command (high level) for opening the electric gripper and a feedback signal (low level) corresponding to the electric gripper is closed, If the operation command and the operation corresponding to the feedback signal are inconsistent, the logic unit triggers the processing unit to delay the output of the operation command.
When the state signal of the electric gripper corresponds to a low level (idle state), the logic unit receives an operation command (high level) for opening the electric gripper and a feedback signal (high level) corresponding to opening of the electric gripper, Since the logic unit does not trigger the processing unit, the processing unit does not output the operation command.
Further, the state signal S S of the electric gripper corresponds to a low level (idle state), and the logic unit outputs an operation command (low level) for closing the electric gripper and a feedback signal ), The logic unit does not trigger the processing unit, so the processing unit does not output the operation command.
In this embodiment, the logic unit mainly triggers the processing unit to output an operation command only when the electric gripper is idle, and the operation of the electric gripper corresponding to the feedback signal and the operation command is opposite to each other. Therefore, the logic unit may be composed of other logic elements, and the number of logic elements is not limited to that described in this embodiment, and the voltage level judgment logic for the signals and commands of the logic unit may be limited to those described in this embodiment It does not.
As shown in Fig. 5, the driving method of the electric gripper of the present invention includes the following steps.
First, the step (S31) of providing a status signal generated according to the operation state of the electric gripper is executed; Subsequently, the step S32 of judging whether or not the state signal corresponds to the idle state is executed. If the result is NO, it means that the electric gripper is in motion, that is, the electric gripper is executing the previous motion command, And does not output a new operation command to the electric gripper because it executes the end step. Here, the description of the state signal generation technique in step S31 is well known in the art, and thus description thereof will be omitted.
If Yes, it means that the electric gripper corresponds to the idle state or does not move, and executes the step of receiving the operation command and the feedback signal that detects the operation of the electric gripper (S33). Here, the feedback signal that detects the electric gripper can be detected continuously or only when there is a new operation command.
The feedback signal is related to the operating state of the electric gripper. Here, the operation command includes an open operation and a close operation of the electric gripper. The feedback signal is a feedback of the direction of operation of the electric gripper, and there are two directions of operation of the electric gripper, both of which are related to the opening and closing operations of the electric gripper.
Subsequently, the step (S34) of comparing the operation command with the feedback signal is executed, and the step (S35) of judging whether or not the operation of the electric gripper corresponding to the operation command and the feedback signal is coincident is executed The operation instruction and the operation of the electric gripper corresponding to the feedback signal both correspond to the opening or closing operation, the operation inconsistency indicates that the operation of the electric gripper corresponding to the operation command and the feedback signal is different, However, this indicates that the degree is different. For example, the feedback signal indicates opening of the electric gripper, and the motion command also causes the electric gripper to open, but indicates that the degree of opening is greater than the degree corresponding to the feedback signal.
It means that the operation direction of the electric gripper corresponding to the feedback signal is the same as the operation direction of the electric gripper corresponding to the new operation command. For example, if the new operation command indicates that the electric gripper is open (or closed) And if the feedback signal indicates that the current operation of the electric gripper is also an open (or closed) operation, the end step is continuously executed and the operation command is not output.
It means that the operation direction of the electric gripper corresponding to the feedback signal and the operation command of the electric gripper corresponding to the new operation command are opposite to each other. For example, when the new operation command is an open (or closed) , And if the feedback signal indicates that the current operation of the electric gripper is closed (or open), then delay the time and output the action command to the electric gripper so that the electric gripper changes the direction of movement S36).
Finally, it should be emphasized again that the components disclosed in the above-described embodiments of the present invention are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present application, It is claimed.
