W-axis rotating mechanism and manipulator capable of rotating around z-axis

Abstract

The invention provides a w-axis rotating mechanism and a manipulator capable of rotating around the z-axis, and belongs to the technical field of automated equipment. The w-axis rotating mechanism is characterized in that a w-axis stand column (39), a rotating unit rotatably installed on the w-axis stand column (39), a w-axis power unit and a detection unit are included; the w-axis power unit is fixedly connected with the w-axis stand column (39), the w-axis power unit is connected with the rotating unit and drives the rotating unit to rotate, the rotating unit and the w-axis stand column (39) are coaxially arranged, and the detection unit is used for measuring and limiting the rotating angle of the rotating unit. The w-axis rotating mechanism can output power rotating around the w-axis stand column and drive grasped ceramic tiles to rotate to change the postures of the ceramic tiles when the ceramic tiles are transferred or stacked and is wide in application range; the detection unit can detect the rotating angle of the rotating unit, and therefore the precision of the manipulator is guaranteed. According to the manipulator capable of rotating around the z-axis, the freedom degree of a grab mechanism is increased, and therefore the grab mechanism is more flexible.

Description

technical field [0001] A w-axis rotating mechanism and a manipulator capable of rotating around the z-axis belong to the technical field of automation equipment. Background technique [0002] A manipulator refers to an automatic operating device that can imitate certain functions of the human hand and arm to grab, carry objects or operate tools according to a fixed program. The manipulator is the earliest industrial robot and the first modern robot. The manipulator replaces the heavy labor of people to realize the mechanization and automation of production. It can operate in harmful environments to protect personal safety. Manipulators are widely used in machinery manufacturing, metallurgy, Departments of electronics, light work and atomic energy. [0003] In the ceramic tile production industry, the main function of the manipulator is the transfer of tiles and the stacking of tiles. The existing manipulators can usually complete the movement of the x-axis, y-axis and z-axi...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Since the manipulator needs to cooperate with the tile production line, the manipulator cannot be stopped during the daily production process, which requires workers to place pallets during the work of the manipulator, which poses a safety hazard

Moreover, the existing manipulator has relatively high requirements on the position of the pallet. When placing the pallet, it is necessary to place the pallet precisely according to the working position of the manipulator, which is very inconvenient to use.
