具体实施方式
以下结合附图对本发明的实施方式作进一步说明。附图中相同或类似的标号自始至终表示相同或类似的元件或具有相同或类似功能的元件。
另外,下面结合附图描述的本发明的实施方式是示例性的,仅用于解释本发明的实施方式,而不能理解为对本发明的限制。
请参阅图1-3,本发明实施方式的机械手臂100包括通过转轴10转动连接的两个手臂构件20及绕转轴10与至少其中一个手臂构件20固定连接的拉丝30。
本发明实施方式的机械手臂100可以通过拉动拉丝30使得与拉丝30连接的手臂构件20相对于另一个手臂构件20转动,在此情况下,拉动拉丝30的驱动装置可以不限于设置在两个手臂构件20转动连接的关节处,而是可以设置在其他合适的位置,甚至是设置在机械手臂100外,从而减轻机械手臂100的自重,同时简化机械手臂100的关节结构。
在某些实施方式中,转轴10基本垂直于手臂构件20的长度方向。
如此,在拉丝30的拉力作用下,手臂构件20可以绕另外一个手臂构件20摆动,从而实现摆动控制。
请一并参阅图4及图5,在某些实施方式中,手臂构件20为中空状且两端开放的管状结构,例如在某些示例中,手臂构件20为圆管状。
如此,可以减轻手臂构件20的自重,从而进一步减轻机械手臂100的自重。
当然,可以理解,手臂构件20并不限于上面讨论的实施方式,而可以在其他实施方式中,根据需要采用其他合适的结构。
在某些实施方式中,手臂构件100的一端沿手臂构件20的长度方向延伸有手臂连接件21。手臂连接件21形成有轴孔22。转轴10转动穿设两个手臂构件20的轴孔22内从而将两个手臂构件20转动连接。
如此,转动连接结构简单,方便设计及制造。
在某些实施方式中,手臂连接件21可以是间隔且平行设置的两个转轴支撑架210,每个转轴支撑架210都形成有轴孔22,同一手臂连接件21的两个转轴支撑架210上的轴孔22对齐。
例如,在某些实施方式中,手臂构件20可以包括下手臂构件20(请参图4)及上手臂构件20(请参图5)。
下手臂构件20的两个转轴支撑架210之间的间隔可以比上手臂构件20的两个转轴支撑架210的间隔大,如此,下手臂构件20的两个转轴支撑架210构成枢接座,而上手臂构件20的两个转轴支撑架210可以设置在下手臂构件20两个转轴支撑架210之间(即嵌入枢接座内)。然后通过转轴10穿设在轴孔22内实现两个手臂构件20的转动连接。
在某些实施方式中,转轴10可以是圆柱销,并穿轴孔22固定。
如此,手臂连接件21的两个转轴支撑架210之间形成有收容空间,可以设置其他元件或其他设计结构,因此提高了机械手臂100的关节处的设计自由度。
当然,在其他实施方式中,手臂构件20之间的转动连接结构可以不限于上面讨论的实施方式,可以视具体需求而改变。
请一并参阅图7,拉丝30可以是柔性的不锈钢丝或者其他材质的强度符合要求的拉丝。拉丝20可以包括连接端31及拉动端32。
在某些实施方式中,上手臂构件20的手臂连接件21的转轴支撑架210包括第一表面211及与第一表面211相背的第二表面212。手臂连接件21包括沿第一表面211向外侧延伸形成有拉丝圆盘213。拉丝圆盘213的轴向与转轴10基本平行或者同轴设置,拉丝圆盘213的尺寸大于转轴10的尺寸,拉丝30绕拉丝圆盘213后与转轴支撑架210固定连接。
可以理解,在上面讨论的实施方式中,拉丝30绕拉丝圆盘213即是绕转轴10设置。如此可以增加拉丝30拉动手臂构件20的转动力臂使得拉丝30拉动手臂构件20更加省力。从而,可以采用较小功率的驱动装置来拉动拉丝。
转轴支撑架210在拉丝圆盘213外形成有贯穿第一表面211及第二表面212的第一连接孔214(见图5)。第一连接孔214的尺寸大于拉丝的横截尺寸,以允许拉丝30穿设。拉丝30的连接端31可以形成有尺寸大于第一连接孔214的凸头311。
如此,拉丝30的拉动端32从第二表面212一侧穿过第一连接孔214后绕拉丝圆盘213拉动直至连接端31(见图8)的凸头311卡设在第一连接孔214即可将拉丝30固定在转轴支撑架210上。
可以理解,通过根据拉丝30的绕向设置第一连接孔214的位置上可以设置拉丝30绕拉丝圆盘213的弧度,例如为180度。从而可以控制拉丝30拉动手臂构件20转动的角度。
在某些实施方式中,拉丝30包括两根,两个拉丝30分别设置手臂构件20的两个转轴支撑架210上,且绕向相反,如此,可以拉动手臂构件沿两个相反方向转动。结合每根拉丝30可以拉动手臂构件20转动的结构,可以得到两个手臂构件20可以相互转动的角度。例如,一根拉丝30可以拉动手臂构件20转动180度,而另一根拉丝30可以拉动手臂构件20转动-180度,从而拉丝30可以拉动手臂构件20转动-180度到180度。
可以理解,两根丝30的绕向相反可以扩大手臂构件的相互转动范围。
当然,拉丝30的具体设置可以不限于上面讨论的实施方式,而可以在其他实施方式中视需求设置。
请一并参阅图8,在某些实施方式中,机械手臂100包括平衡弹簧40。两个手臂构件20通过平衡弹簧40连接。
如此,通过平衡弹簧40提供的支撑力平衡机械手臂100的自重,使机械手臂100的启动和运行更加稳定,并可以增大机械手臂100的负载能力,提高驱动效率。
在某些实施方式中,平衡弹簧40包括两个,并分别与两个转轴支撑架210固定连接。平衡弹簧40两端分别与两个手臂构件20相连,当手臂构件20相对转动时,需克服平衡弹簧40的拉力。当两个手臂构件20相对转动至均处于竖直位置时,处于上端的手臂构件20的重心基本处于转轴10中心处,此时平衡弹簧40提供的平衡扭矩最小;当上端的手臂构件20相对转动至处于水平位置时,上端的手臂构件20的重心离转轴10中心处最远,此时平衡弹簧40提供的平衡扭矩接近最大。如此,平衡弹簧40可以平衡机械手臂100的自重,从而提高驱动机械手臂100的驱动装置使用效率。
在某些实施方式中,平衡弹簧40包括线簧,并包括弹簧钩41。手臂连接件21的第二表面212上设置有连接轴215。平衡弹簧40通过弹簧钩41卡设于连接轴215上。
如此,平衡弹簧40通过弹簧钩41与连接轴215连接而设置于手臂连接件21的所述收容空间内,从而实现平衡手臂构件20自重的作用。
在某些实施方式中,连接轴215可以为圆柱销。手臂连接件21的第二表面212上 开设有螺纹孔。所述圆柱销与所述螺纹孔螺纹配合而设置于第二表面212上。
在其他实施方式中,连接轴215可以通过焊接等合适的方式设置于第二表面212上,因此,需要说明的是,并不仅仅限于上面讨论的圆柱销。
当然,在其他实施方式中,平衡弹簧40还可以为扭簧。因此,需要说明的是,平衡弹簧40并不仅限于上面讨论的线簧。
请参阅图9及图10,本发明实施方式提供一种机械手臂100a,机械手臂100a包括通过转轴10a转动连接的两个手臂构件20a。在图9所示的方位中,机械手臂100a的拉丝30a固定连接位置在上的手臂构件20a。
在本实施方式中,转轴10a基本平行于手臂构件20a的长度方向(如图9所示的双箭头方向)。
如此,在拉丝30a的拉力作用下,手臂构件20a可以绕另外一个手臂构件20a转动,从而实现转动控制。
在某些实施方式中,两个手臂构件20a相对转动的角度包括-180度到180度。
可以根据需求设置相对角度,在某些实施方式中,手臂构件20a具有更大的转动范围,可以适用于更多的场合。
在某些实施方式中。转轴10a两端分别与两个手臂构件20a的一端固定连接且至少一端与至少一个手臂构件20a转动连接。
如此,机械手臂100a形成转动结构,并可以根据具体情况进行设置。
请一并参阅图10、图11及图12,在某些实施方式中,转轴10a与其中一个手臂构件20a转动连接。转轴10a包括第一表面11a及与第一表面11a相背的第二表面12a。转轴10a开设有贯穿第一表面11a及第二表面12a的第二连接孔13a。拉丝30a包括连接端31a及拉动端32a。连接端31a形成有凸头311a。拉动端32a从转轴10a的第二表面12a一侧穿过第二连接孔13a后绕第一表面11a拉动直至连接端31a的所述凸头311a卡设在第二连接孔13a内从而将拉丝30a固定在转轴10a上。
如此,两根拉丝30a直接绕设于手臂构件20a形成的转动关节处,从而通过拉丝30a实现转动控制。
在某些实施方式中,手臂构件20a为中空且两端开放的结构。拉丝30a穿设手臂构件20a。拉动端32a伸出手臂构件20a。
如此,拉丝30a沿手臂构件20a内部伸出手臂构件20a,利于保护拉丝30a,且结构美观紧凑。并且,伸出手臂构件20a的拉动端32a可以直接和设置于机械手臂100a外的驱动装置连接。
在某些实施方式中,转轴10a为轴承。两个手臂构件20a的两个手臂关节构件21a分别与所述轴承内外圈相连。两个手臂关节构件21a(图12)通过所述轴承产生相对转动。
如此,手臂构件20a的连接结构简单,且机械手臂100a的两个手臂关节构件21a与轴承的连接处的摩擦力较小。
具体地,在某些实施方式中的所述轴承可以为交叉滚子轴承。
如此,所述轴承可同时承受径向力和轴向力。
本实施方式中,拉丝30a包括两根。拉丝30a与拉丝30相同。
两根拉丝30a能够单独地分别驱动一个手臂构件20a相对于另一个手臂构件20a沿正负相反的方向进行转动。
本实施方式中,机械手臂100a包括转向轴承40a(图10)。拉丝30a通过转向轴承40a改变拉丝30a的拉动方向。如此,并可以根据具体情况进行设置拉丝30a的拉动方向,转向轴承40a将拉丝30a基本垂直于手臂构件20a的长度方向变为基本平行于手臂构件20a的长度方向,便于机械手臂100a的驱动,方便拉丝30a从手臂构件20a中间通过,提升了机械手臂100a运行的稳定性,避免拉丝30a在手臂构件20a外侧裸露, 同时使外观紧凑美观。
本实施方式中,转向轴承40a设置于手臂构件20a内。如此,连接结构简单稳定。
具体地,本实施方式中,手臂构件20a开设有收容孔22a。转向轴承40a设置在收容孔22a中。因此,这样可使机械手臂100a的结构更加紧凑。
本实施方式中,转轴10a收容在手臂构件20a中。
具体地,在图12所示的示例中,机械手臂100a包括上手臂构件20aa和下手臂构件20ab。转轴10a收容于下手臂构件20ab内。如此,结构简单,节约空间。
本实施方式中,转轴10a开设有绕线槽14a。拉丝30a收容在绕线槽14a中。
如此,拉丝30a能够稳定地固定于转轴10a。
具体地,在图12所示的示例中,拉丝30a穿设第二连接孔13a并收容在绕线槽14a中,并且拉丝30a的拉动端32a穿过下手臂构件20ab的侧壁而伸出。因此,绕线槽14a的设置可使拉丝30a的运动更顺畅,提高了机械手臂100a的运行稳定性。
请参阅图13,本发明实施方式的机械手臂700包括两个手臂构件710、枢座720及手臂拉丝740。枢座720通过转轴730分别与两个手臂构件710转动地连接。手臂拉丝740绕转轴730与至少其中一个手臂构件710固定连接。
本发明实施方式的机械手臂700可以通过拉动手臂拉丝740使得与手臂拉丝740连接的手臂构件710转动,在此情况下,拉动手臂拉丝740的驱动装置可以不限于设置在两个手臂构件710的转动连接处,而是设置在机械手臂700外,从而减轻机械手臂700的自重,简化机械手臂700的结构。
本实施方式中,手臂构件710呈中空且两端开放的结构。
如此,可以减轻手臂构件710的自重,从而进一步减轻机械手臂700的自重。
具体地,本实施方式中,手臂构件710为圆管状。
本实施方式中,枢座720基本呈正方体状。在其他实施方式中,枢座720可以呈长方体状等合适的形状,因此,并不仅仅限于本实施方式中的正方体状。
进一步,本实施方式中,枢座720为两端开口的结构。如此,可以减轻枢座720的自重,从而进一步减轻机械手臂700的自重。
当然,可以理解,枢座720并不限于上面讨论的实施方式的结构,而可以在其他实施方式中,根据实际需要采用其他合适的结构。
本实施方式中,转轴730基本垂直于手臂构件710的长度方向(如13所示的双箭头方向)。
如此,在手臂拉丝740的拉力作用下,手臂构件710可以绕枢座720摆动,从而实现摆动控制。例如,在图14所示的示例中,两个手臂构件710分别为上手臂构件710a和下手臂构件710b,上手臂构件710a及下手臂构件710b均转动连接枢座720。手臂拉丝740固定连接上手臂构件710a。在手臂拉丝740的拉力作用下,手臂拉丝740带动上手臂构件710a相对于枢座720转动。
本实施方式中,机械手臂700还包括枢座拉丝750(见图13)。枢座拉丝750绕转轴730与枢座720固定连接。
如此,在枢座拉丝750的作用力下,枢座710绕转轴730转动,从而带动枢座710相对于手臂构件710转动,例如,在图21所示的示例中,相对于下手臂构件710b转动。
具体地,本实施方式中,转轴730包括第一转轴731和第二转轴732。第一转轴731与第二转轴732相互垂直。手臂拉丝740绕第一转轴731。枢座拉丝750绕第二转轴732。第一转轴731的轴线与第二转轴732的轴线交汇于一点。
如此,在上手臂构件710a在手臂拉丝740的作用力下绕枢座720转动时,不会影响下手臂构件710b,同时,枢座720在枢座拉丝750的作用力下相对于下手臂构件710b转动时,不会影响上手臂构件710a。第一转轴731与第二转轴732相互垂直从而能够 构成万向关节,从而能够使得机械手臂700的手臂构件710相对于枢座720进行转动,并且两个手臂构件710之间的夹角能够随着两个手臂构件710相对于枢座20转动而变化。
例如,上手臂构件710a通过第一转轴731绕枢座720进行转动,下手臂构件710b通过第二转轴732绕枢座720进行转动,进而实现了两个手臂构件10之间的夹角变化。
在图14中,上手臂构件710a处于A位置,此时,上手臂构件710a的轴线及下手臂构件710b的轴线基本处于同一轴线上,两个手臂构件710之间的夹角接近0度。当上手臂构件710a转动时,可将下手臂构件710b固定,上手臂构件710a受到手臂拉丝740的作用力时,上手臂构件710a通过第一转轴731绕着枢座720进行转动。转动结果如图15所示,在手臂拉丝740的作用力下,上手臂构件710a绕着枢座720进行转动至B位置。此时,上手臂构件710a的轴线与下手臂构件710b的轴线基本垂直,两个手臂构件710之间的夹角接近90度,当然,可进一步拉动手臂拉丝740使两个手臂构件710之间的夹角在100~120度之间。
可以理解,在其他实施方式中,在手臂拉丝740的作用力下,上手臂构件710a及下手臂构件710b之间的夹角可以随着上手臂构件710a绕枢座720转动而变化。因此,需要说明的是,本示例仅仅用于说明两个手臂构件710可以分别绕枢座720进行转动且相互不受影响,而不能作为对本发明实施方式的限制。
本实施方式中,手臂构件710的一端沿手臂构件710的长度方向延伸有转轴支撑架711。
具体地,请参阅图16及图17,在图示的示例中,上手臂构件710a的一端沿上手臂构件710a的长度方向延伸有转轴支撑架711a。转轴支撑架711a开设有第一轴孔7111a。枢座720开设有第二轴孔721a。第一转轴731转动穿设第一轴孔7111a及第二轴孔721a。
具体地,请参阅图21及图23,在图示的示例中,下手臂构件710b的一端沿下手臂构件710b的长度方向延伸有转轴支撑架711b。转轴支撑架711b开设有第三轴孔7111b。枢座720开设有第四轴孔721b。第二转轴732转动地穿设第三轴孔7111b及第四轴孔721b。
如此,转动连接结构简单,方便设计及制造。
本实施方式中,第一转轴731和第二转轴732可以是圆柱销。
当然,在其他实施方式中,手臂构件710与枢座720之间的转动连接结构可以不限于上面讨论的实施方式的结构,可以视具体需求而改变。
本实施方式中,转轴支撑架711包括间隔设置的两个支撑架712。第一轴孔7111开设在支撑架712上。枢座720位于两个支撑架712之间。
如此,转轴支撑架711的两个支撑架712之间形成有收容空间,枢座720收容于两个支撑架712之间所形成的收容空间内,结构紧凑。同时,所述收容空间可以设置其他元件或其他设计结构,因此提高了机械手臂700的关节处的设计自由度。
在图16所示的示例中,上手臂构件710a的转轴支撑架711a包括间隔设置的两个支撑架712a。第一轴孔7111a开设在支撑架712a上。枢座720位于两个支撑架712a之间。
本实施方式中,手臂拉丝740的数量为两根,其中每根手臂拉丝740能够单独拉动手臂构件710绕枢座720摆动。
例如,在图19所示的示例中,与上手臂构件710a连接的手臂拉丝740的数量为两根,其中每根手臂拉丝740能够单独拉动上手臂构件710a绕枢座720摆动。
本实施方式中,手臂拉丝740的一端固定在支撑架712上。
如此,在手臂拉丝740的作用力下,手臂构件710由于受到作用于支撑架712上的作用力而通过转轴730绕着枢座720进行转动。
例如,在图19所示的示例中,手臂拉丝740的一端固定在支撑架712a。在手臂拉丝740的作用力下,上手臂构件710a由于受到作用于支撑架712a上的作用力而通过第一转轴731绕着枢座720进行转动。
本实施方式中,支撑架712包括面向枢座720的第一支撑架表面7121。第一支撑架表面7121上设置有第一拉丝圆盘7122。手臂拉丝740绕在第一拉丝圆盘7122上。
如此,手臂拉丝740绕第一拉丝圆盘7122而设置,方便手臂拉丝740的固定。
例如,在图16所示的示例中,上手臂构件710a的支撑架712a包括面向枢座720的第一支撑架表面7121a。第一支撑架表面7121a上设置有第一拉丝圆盘7122。手臂拉丝740绕在第一拉丝圆盘7122上。
具体地,第一拉丝圆盘7122为在第一支撑架表面7121a上向上手臂构件710a内侧凸设而形成。第一拉丝圆盘7122与第一转轴731同轴设置。
本实施方式中,第一拉丝圆盘7122的尺寸大于第一转轴731的尺寸。
如此,第一拉丝圆盘7122可以增加手臂拉丝740拉动上手臂构件710a的转动力臂使得手臂拉丝740拉动上手臂构件710a更加省力。从而,可以采用较小功率的驱动装置来拉动拉丝。
本实施方式中,第一轴孔7111沿第一拉丝圆盘7122的轴向贯穿第一拉丝圆盘7122。
如此,保证了第一拉丝圆盘7122与第一转轴731同轴设置,并且使得手臂拉丝740绕第一拉丝圆盘7122能够有效构成更加省力的转动力臂。
例如,在图16所示的示例中,上手臂构件710a的第一轴孔7111a沿第一拉丝圆盘7122的轴向贯穿第一拉丝圆盘7122。
本实施方式中,上手臂构件710a的第一支撑架表面7121a上的第一拉丝圆盘7122的尺寸可以根据具体情况进行设置。
本实施方式中,支撑架712包括与第一支撑架表面7121相背的第二支撑架表面7123。支撑架712开设有贯穿第一支撑架表面7121及第二支撑架表面7123的第一固定孔7124。手臂拉丝740包括连接端741及拉动端742(见图18)。连接端741形成有凸头741a。拉动端742从第二支撑架表面7123一侧穿过第一固定孔7124后绕第一拉丝圆盘7122拉动直至连接端741的凸头741a卡设在第一固定孔7124内从而将手臂拉丝740固定在支撑架712上。
如此,手臂拉丝740的拉动端742从第二支撑架表面7123一侧穿过第一固定孔7124后绕第一拉丝圆盘7122拉动直至连接端741的凸头741a卡设在第一固定孔7124即可将手臂拉丝740固定在支撑架712上。
本实施方式中,手臂拉丝740的数量为两根,两根手臂拉丝740分别设置在手臂构件710的两个第一支撑架表面7121上,且绕向相反,如此,可以拉动手臂构件710沿两个相反方向转动。
结合每根手臂拉丝740可以拉动手臂构件710转动的结构,可以得到两个手臂构件710可以相互转动的角度。例如,一根手臂拉丝740可以拉动手臂构件710转动90度,而另一根手臂拉丝740可以拉动手臂构件710转动-90度,从而两根手臂拉丝740可以拉动手臂构件710转动在-90度到90度之间转动。
可以理解,两根手臂拉丝740的绕向相反可以扩大手臂构件710的相互转动范围。
当然,手臂拉丝740的具体设置可以不限于上面讨论的实施方式,而可以在其他实施方式中视需求设置。
具体地,请参阅图19及图20,在图示所示的示例中,支撑架712a包括与第一支撑架表面7121a(见图16)相背的第二支撑架表面7123a。手臂拉丝740的拉动端742从第二支撑架表面7123a一侧穿过第一固定孔7124a后绕第一拉丝圆盘7122拉动直至连接端741的凸头741a卡设在第一固定孔7124a内从而将手臂拉丝740固定在上手臂 构件710a的支撑架712上。
如此,在手臂拉丝740的作用力下,上手臂构件710a通过第一转轴731绕枢座720进行转动。
例如,在初始位置时,上手臂构件710a处于C位置;当上手臂构件710a受手臂拉丝40的作用力时,上手臂构件710a通过第一转轴731绕枢座720从C位置转动至D位置。
本实施方式中,手臂构件710为中空且两端开放的结构。手臂拉丝740穿设手臂构件710。拉动端742伸出手臂构件710。
如此,手臂拉丝740沿手臂构件710内部伸出手臂构件710,利于保护手臂拉丝740,且结构美观紧凑。
本实施方式中,手臂拉丝740的拉动端742可以由手臂构件710伸出。如此,由手臂构件710伸出的手臂拉丝740的拉动端742可以直接与驱动装置连接。
本实施方式中,机械手臂700包括可转动地设置在枢座720上的转向轴承760(见图20)。手臂拉丝740通过转向轴承760改变手臂拉丝740的拉动方向。
如此,并可以根据具体情况进行设置手臂拉丝740的拉动方向,便于机械手臂700的驱动,并提升了机械手臂700运行的稳定性,同时使外观紧凑美观。
例如,在图14所示的示例中,与上手臂构件710a固定连接的手臂拉丝740通过转向轴承760改变手臂拉丝740的拉动方向。
本实施方式中,枢座720形成有凹槽725(见图17)。转向轴承760可转动地设置于凹槽725中。
如此,可使机械手臂700的结构更紧凑及更稳定。
本实施方式中,枢座拉丝750的结构与手臂拉丝740的结构基本相同。枢座拉丝750与手臂拉丝740可以是柔性的不锈钢丝或者其他材质的强度符合要求的拉丝。
本实施方式中,枢座720通过枢座拉丝750驱动。枢座720通过枢座拉丝750绕第二转轴732与手臂构件710可转动地连接。例如,枢座720通过枢座拉丝750绕第二转轴732与下手臂构件710b可转动地连接。
本实施方式中,枢座720包括面向手臂构件710的第一枢座表面722。第一枢座表面722上设置有第二拉丝圆盘7122b(见图17)。枢座拉丝750绕在第二拉丝圆盘7122b上。
如此,枢座拉丝750绕第二拉丝圆盘7122b而设置,方便枢座拉丝750的固定。
本实施方式中,第二拉丝圆盘7122b为在第一枢座表面722上向枢座720外侧凸设而形成。第二拉丝圆盘7122b与第二转轴732同轴设置。
如此,枢座拉丝750绕第二拉丝圆盘7122b即是绕第二转轴732设置,利于驱动。
本实施方式中,第二拉丝圆盘7122b的尺寸大于第二转轴732的尺寸。
如此,第二拉丝圆盘7122b可以增加枢座拉丝50拉动枢座720的转动力臂使得枢座拉丝750拉动枢座720更加省力。从而,可以采用较小功率的驱动装置来拉动枢座拉丝750。例如,在图21所示的示例中,第二拉丝圆盘7122b可以增加枢座拉丝750拉动枢座720的转动力臂使得枢座拉丝750拉动枢座720时更加省力。
本实施方式中,枢座720包括与第一枢座表面722相背的第二枢座表面723(见图21)。枢座720开设有贯穿第一枢座表面722及第二枢座表面723的第二固定孔724(见图21)。枢座拉丝750包括连接端751及拉动端752(见图22)。连接端751形成有凸头751a。拉动端752从枢座720的第二枢座表面723一侧穿过第二固定孔724后绕第二拉丝圆盘7122b拉动直至连接端751的凸头751a卡设在第二固定孔724内从而将枢座拉丝750固定在枢座720上。
如此,枢座拉丝750的拉动端752从第二枢座表面723一侧穿过第二固定孔724后绕第二拉丝圆盘7122b拉动直至连接端751的凸头751a卡设在第二固定孔724即可 将枢座拉丝750固定在枢座720上。
本实施方式中,转轴支撑架711b开设有穿孔713(见图23)。枢座拉丝750穿设穿孔713并伸出下手臂构件710b。第二转轴732转动地穿设转轴支撑架711b。
如此,下手臂构件710b与枢座720通过第二转轴732转动地连接,枢座拉丝750沿下手臂构件710b内部伸出下手臂构件710b,利于保护枢座拉丝50,且结构美观紧凑。
本实施方式中,第四轴孔721b沿第二拉丝圆盘7122b的轴向贯穿第二拉丝圆盘7122b。
如此,保证了第二拉丝圆盘7122b与第二转轴732同轴设置,并且使得枢座拉丝750绕第二拉丝圆盘7122b能够有效构成更加省力的转动力臂。
