请一并参阅图1至图4、图8、图9和图16,现对本申请提供的吸附装置1进行说明。吸附装置1,包括:
底座11,底座11具有第一端面112;
吸嘴12,吸嘴12设置于第一端面112上,吸嘴12的数量为至少三个,至少三个吸嘴12围设形成受力区域(未图示);
驱动组件(未图示),用于调整受力区域面积大小,驱动组件固定于底座11上。
通过在其第一端面112上设置有与该第一端面112活动连接的吸嘴12,吸嘴12的数量为至少三个,上述至少三个吸嘴12围设形成受力区域,该吸嘴12可以在驱动组件的驱动下调整受力区域面积的大小,如此,当被吸附的基板(未图示)因出现错位或者偏移造成吸嘴12无法吸附到基板时,吸嘴12可以移动到新的位置来吸附住基板。
吸嘴12是用于吸附基板的。
可选地,该第一端面112为平面,当然,在其他实施例中,第一端面112还可以为曲面或者其他形状,只要不影响吸嘴12的活动以及吸嘴12可以正常吸附基板即可,此处不作唯一限定。
可选地,图1至图4、图8、图9和图16,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,吸嘴12的数量为四个,受力区域为矩形。受力区域的形状可选为矩形,大部分基板都是切割呈矩形,有利于吸附装置1将基板吸附住。当然,受力区域还可以为其他形状,只要不影响吸嘴12的活动以及吸嘴12可以正常吸附基板即可,此处不作唯一限定。
在本实施例中,可选地,吸嘴12的数量为4个,其中2个为一组,一共2组,且该4个吸嘴12围设形成一个矩形,如此可以较为稳定地吸附基板,同时吸嘴12的数量也比较少,节省了成本。当然,在其他实施例中,吸嘴12的数量还可以为不少于3个的其他数量,只要能够将基板吸附住即可,此处不作唯一限定。
进一步地,请参阅图2和图5,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,还包括:
吸气装置(未图示);
吸气管(未图示),用于将气体传输至吸气装置,吸嘴12上设置有进气孔1212,吸气管与进气孔1212相连通。
如此,气体从进气孔1212中经过吸气管进入吸气装置,可以在吸盘121处产生吸力,当吸盘121与基板接触时,该吸力增加了吸盘121与基板之间的吸附强度。
进一步地,请一并参阅图6至图7,吸嘴12是一个中空的圆柱体,其中该圆柱体的一端与基板接触,该圆柱体的中空管道充当进气孔1212。当然,在其他实施例中,只要能够通过将气体吸入进气孔1212而将基板吸附在吸嘴12上即可,此处不作唯一限定。
进一步地,请参阅图2,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,吸嘴12具有吸盘121。如此,吸盘121可以将基板吸附得更牢固。
进一步地,请参阅图5,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,吸盘121的一端往内侧凹陷形成第一容置腔1211,进气孔1212与第一容置腔1211相连通。如此,吸盘121具有第一容置腔1211,可以在吸盘121与基板之间挤压并发生形变的过程中,第一容置腔1211中的部分空气将会被挤压出来,当吸盘121与基板之间由挤压变成拉伸的过程中,第一容置腔1211中的气压低于外界的气压,使得大气压将吸盘121牢牢固定在基板上,大大增强了吸盘121与基板之间的吸附能力。进气孔1212与第一容置腔1211是连通的,使得第一容置腔1211中的气体能够进一步通过进气孔1212排出至吸气装置,进一步降低了第一容置腔1211中的气压,增强了吸盘121与基板之间的吸附力。
可选的,吸盘121采用可弹性形变的材料制成,该吸盘121与基板接触的时候,不会伤到基板,同时吸盘121还可以充当吸嘴12与基板之间的缓冲件,减少吸嘴12伤到基板的概率。可选地,吸盘121具有吸附性的表面,便于吸盘121吸附住基板,增强了吸盘121与基板之间吸附的牢固性。
进一步地,请参阅图5,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,第一容置腔1211的侧壁上开设有通气孔(未图示),通气孔与进气孔1212相连通。如此,第一容置腔1211中的气体可以依次通过通气孔和进气孔1212进入到吸气装置中。
可选地,请参阅图5,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,第一容置腔1211的内侧面为球面。如此,第一容置腔1211的内侧面采用球面的结构,使得吸盘121吸附基板时,该球面结构增强了吸盘121的复原能力,复原能力的增强可以增强吸盘121的吸力。
进一步地,请参阅图12至图15,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,第一端面112开设有滑槽111,滑槽111具有第一槽壁(未图示)、与第一槽壁相对的第二槽壁(未图示)以及连接第一槽壁和第二槽壁的底板(未图示),第一槽壁往滑槽111内侧延伸形成第一延伸板1111和第二槽壁往滑槽111内侧延伸形成第二延伸板1112,第一延伸板1111和第二延伸板1112之间具有狭缝1113,狭缝1113的延伸方向与滑槽111的延伸方向相同;
滑槽111、第一延伸板1111和第二延伸板1112围设形成第二容置腔;
吸嘴12上设置有与狭缝1113适配的固定板124,第二容置腔内设置有沿着滑槽111滑动的滑动块122,固定板124穿设于狭缝1113并与滑动块122固定连接。
如此,滑动块122在第二容置腔1114内滑动,吸嘴12通过固定板124固定在滑动块122上,滑动块122在滑动的过程中被限制在第二容置腔1114内并可沿滑槽111的延伸方向滑动,吸嘴12在滑动块122的限制下不会出现与底板之间出现相互脱离的情况,保障了吸嘴12在运动过程中的稳定性。
可选地,请参阅图12至图15,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,固定板124的厚度与狭缝1113的宽度相同。可以避免滑动块122在滑动的过程中脱离出第二容置腔114。滑动块122所能晃动的区域被限制在第二容置腔1114的范围内,请参考图13,如果第二容置腔1114的横截面积和滑动块122的横截面积是一样的,则滑动块122在运行过程中不会出现晃动。与此同时,当吸嘴12吸附基板的一端朝下吸住基板的时候,吸嘴12的压力会被施加在第一延伸板1111和第二延伸板1112上,即第一延伸板1111和第二延伸板1112在这种情况下还起到支撑的作用。
可选地,请参阅图2和图5,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,第二容置腔1114的横截面为矩形。如此,滑动块122在第二容置腔1114中滑动的时候,不容易出现晃动。
进一步地,请参阅图12至图15,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,滑动块122与滑槽111之间设置有滚珠123。如此,滑动块122在第二容置腔1114中滑动的时候,滚珠123极大得减小了滑动块122第二容置腔1114内壁之间的摩擦力。可选地,滚珠123活动连接于滑动块122。
进一步地,请参阅图12至图15,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,所述滚珠123的数量为多个,且多个滚珠123均匀分布于滑动块122与底板之间。如此,滑动块122在第二容置腔1114中滑动的时候,均匀分布于滑动块122与底板之间的滚珠123避免了滑动块122的震动。
进一步地,请参阅图8、图9或图12,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,驱动组件为双活塞双作用气缸13,双活塞双作用气缸13具有相互独立伸缩或者同步伸缩的第一伸缩端131和第二伸缩端132,第一伸缩端131上设置有一个吸嘴12和/或第二伸缩端132上设置有一个吸嘴12。
如此,本实施例中,采用双活塞双作用气缸13,同时可以控制两个吸嘴12的运动,节省了成本,当然在其他实施例中,请参阅图10或图11,还可以为多个单向伸缩气缸18,该单向伸缩气缸18具有第四伸缩端181。如此,可以单独地控制每一个吸嘴12。
在本实施例中,吸嘴12固定在双活塞双作用气缸13的第一伸缩端131和/或第二伸缩端132,通过双活塞双作用气缸13控制第一伸缩端131和/或第二伸缩端132的运动,可以有效控制吸嘴12所在的位置,控制过程也十分简便,有利于生产。
进一步地,请参阅图16,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,还包括复位弹簧14,复位弹簧14的一端与吸嘴12固定连接,复位弹簧14的另一端固定于底座11上。
如此,复位弹簧14可以使得发生位移的吸嘴12回到原来的位置,不需要额外的装置,结构简单,便于生产,压低了成本,在本实施例中,复位弹簧14是固定在底座11上,在其他实施例中,请一并参阅图17、图19或图21,分别作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,还可以在底座11上设置固定柱19,复位弹簧14的一端固定在固定柱19上,复位弹簧14的另一端固定于吸嘴12上,可选地,复位弹簧14与第一端面112平行,如此吸嘴12在运行的过程中,不会因为复位弹簧14与第一端面112之间有一定的夹角而产生一个将吸嘴12按压在第一端面112上的力,减少了吸嘴12与第一端面112之间的摩擦力。在其他实施例中,复位弹簧14的拉伸方向与滑槽111平行,如此可以避免复位弹簧14对吸嘴12在狭缝1113宽度方向上产生的力,从而减少了吸嘴12与底座11之间的摩擦力。
进一步地,请参阅图2和图5,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,驱动组件位于复位弹簧14的伸缩方向上。在本实施例中,驱动组件位于复位弹簧14的伸缩方向上,便于复位弹簧14牵引吸嘴12恢复到起始位置,此处的起始位置指的是驱动组件改变受力区域之前吸嘴12所在的位置。
进一步地,请参阅图16或图17,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,还包括用于牵引吸嘴12移动的第一牵引线153,底座11上设置有开孔114,在开孔114边缘的第一端面112上设置有与吸嘴12数量一一对应的用于将第一牵引线153的牵引方向转向的定轮装置15,定轮装置15包括固定于第一端面112上的支架151和固定于支架151上且与支架151活动连接的转轮152,转轮152具有用于放置第一牵引线153的线槽;
底座11上与第一端面112相对的第二端面113上固定有单向气缸16,单向气缸16往一侧端方向延伸形成有可伸缩的第三伸缩端161,第三伸缩端161穿设于开孔114且第三伸缩端161在伸长状态下离第一端面112的距离小于转轮152离第一端面112的距离;
第一牵引线153的一端与吸嘴12固定连接,第一牵引线153另一端与第三伸缩端161固定连接,第一牵引线153卡设于线槽中且第一牵引线153与转轮152活动连接。
如此,定轮装置15上的转轮152起到了第一牵引线153转向的作用。当第三伸缩端161伸长的时候,复位弹簧14开始收缩,复位弹簧14拉动吸嘴12和第一牵引线153往复位弹簧14的收缩方向移动,从而实现了吸嘴12围成的受力区域的扩大。当第三伸缩端161收缩的时候,第三伸缩端161拉动第一牵引线153往第三伸缩端161移动,同时,吸嘴12在第一牵引线153的拉动下沿着滑槽111往转轮152方向移动,从而实现了吸嘴12围成的受力区域的减小。
一个单向气缸16就可以同时控制多个吸嘴12的运动,节省了所需气缸的数量。
第三伸缩端161穿设于开孔114且第三伸缩端161在伸长状态下离第一端面112的距离小于转轮152离第一端面112的距离,使得第三伸缩端161无论是在伸出还是收缩的时候,连接于吸嘴12与第三伸缩端161上的第一牵引线153始终能够抵接在转轮152上。
进一步地,请参阅图20至图21,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,还包括第二牵引线154,受力区域中的第一端面112上固定有一个电机17,电机17具有往第一端面112外侧延伸的转轴171,转轴171垂直于第一端面112,第二牵引线154的一端与吸嘴12固定连接,第二牵引线154的另一端与所转轴171表面固定连接。
如此,第二牵引线154固定在转轴171表面,在初始位置(第二牵引线154没有缠绕在转轴171上)转轴171往任意一个方向旋转,假设初始旋转方向是逆时针旋转方向,第二牵引线154开始缠绕在转轴171上,复位弹簧14被拉伸,受力区域变小,当转轴171由逆时针方向变为顺时针方向旋转的时候,复位弹簧14收缩,受力区域增大;同样,在初始位置,假设初始旋转方向是顺时针旋转方向,第二牵引线154开始缠绕在转轴171上,复位弹簧14被拉伸,受力区域变小,当转轴171由顺时针方向变为逆时针方向旋转的时候,复位弹簧14收缩,受力区域增大。
在本实施例中,一个电机17就可以控制多个吸嘴12的运动,即电机17控制了受力区域面积的扩大和缩小。同时,转轴171通过转不同的角度,可以较大范围且连续性地控制吸嘴12的运动行程,非常方便地改变区域面积的大小。
进一步地,请参阅图20至图21,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,第二牵引线154与第一端面112平行。如此,第二牵引线154在牵引吸嘴12运动的过程中,吸嘴12只会受到一个与第一端面112平行的力。避免了在与第一端面112垂直的方向上,出现吸嘴12靠近并抵接在第一端面112上增加阻力,或者远离第一端面112而出现因为吸嘴12与第一端面112之间的距离过远而影响到吸嘴12吸附基板的稳定性。
进一步地,请一并参阅图19,作为本申请提供的吸附装置1的一种具体实施方式,底座11上设置固定柱19,复位弹簧14的一端固定在固定柱19上,复位弹簧14的另一端与吸嘴12上,还包括第二牵引线154,第二端面113上固定有电机17,电机17,电机17具有转轴171,转轴171穿设于开孔114,第二牵引线154的一端与吸嘴12固定连接,第二牵引线154的另一端与所转轴171表面固定连接。
如此,电机17不需要占用第一端面112上的空间,避免了电机17出现碰到基板而损坏基板的情况。第二牵引线154固定在转轴171表面,在初始位置(第二牵引线154没有缠绕在转轴171上)转轴171往任意一个方向旋转,假设初始旋转方向是逆时针旋转方向,第二牵引线154开始缠绕在转轴171上,复位弹簧14被拉伸,受力区域变小,当转轴171由逆时针方向变为顺时针方向旋转的时候,复位弹簧14收缩,受力区域增大;同样,在初始位置,假设初始旋转方向是顺时针旋转方向,第二牵引线154开始缠绕在转轴171上,复位弹簧14被拉伸,受力区域变小,当转轴171由顺时针方向变为逆时针方向旋转的时候,复位弹簧14收缩,受力区域增大。当然在图18中,弹簧的一端是直接固定在第一端面112上的。
在本实施例中,一个电机17就可以控制多个吸嘴12的运动,即控制了受力区域面积的扩大和缩小。同时,转轴171通过转不同的角度,可以较大范围且连续性地控制吸嘴12的运动行程,非常方便地改变区域面积的大小。
请参阅图1至图4、图8、图9和图16,本申请还提出了一种吸附系统(未图示),包括机械臂(未图示)和吸附装置1,机械臂具有用于抓取物体的手爪(未图示),底座11固定在手爪上。
本申请提供的吸附系统的效果在于:由于采用了上述吸附装置1,本申请吸附装置1在其第一端面112上设置有与该第一端面112活动连接的吸嘴12,吸嘴12的数量不少于三个,吸嘴12围设形成受力区域,该吸嘴12可以在驱动组件的驱动下调整受力区域面积的大小,如此,当被吸嘴12吸附的基板因出现错位或者偏移造成吸嘴12无法吸附到基板时,吸嘴12可以移动到新的位置来吸附住基板。
可选地,手爪具有可以转动的至少一个自由度。如此,手爪能够非常灵活地抓取底座11并转移底座11的位置。
请参阅图1至图4、图8、图9和图16,本申请还提出了一种搬运设备(未图示),包括导轨、滑设于导轨上的动子和吸附系统,机械臂固定于动子上。
本申请提供的搬运设备的效果在于:由于采用了上述吸附系统,本申请吸附装置1在其第一端面112上设置有与该第一端面112活动连接的吸嘴12,吸嘴12的数量不少于三个,吸嘴12围设形成受力区域,该吸嘴12可以在驱动组件的驱动下调整受力区域面积的大小,如此,当被吸嘴12吸附的基板因出现错位或者偏移造成吸嘴12无法吸附到基板时,吸嘴12可以移动到新的位置来吸附住基板。在本实施例中,机械臂固定在动子上,使得动子可以将机械臂沿着导轨运动,非常方便。
以上所述仅为本申请的较佳实施例而已,并不用以限制本申请,凡在本申请的精神和原则之内所作的任何修改、等同替换和改进等,均应包含在本申请的保护范围之内。
