Description

Robot-powered polishing end effector with active damping
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of robot automation, in particular to a robot-operated polishing end effector with active damping.
Background
With the rapid development of modern industry, industrial robots are becoming more and more widely used in various fields, especially in some fields where working environments are severe and a lot of heavy work needs to be repeated. In some working environments requiring contact, industrial robots often are required to have certain contact sensing and adjusting capabilities so as to achieve the working requirements of the working operations such as clamping, polishing, assembling and the like. In the polishing process of the robot, constant force polishing is a key factor affecting the surface quality of a workpiece, and relative movement or other interactions between a polishing tool and the workpiece can cause the polishing tool to vibrate, so that the force control precision of the tool is affected. Therefore, it is necessary to realize constant force control of the contact force of the polishing tool with the workpiece, and it is important to realize constant force control with active damping to accomplish high-precision work.
The manual control method of the industrial robot is mainly divided into direct force control and indirect force control, wherein the direct force control is realized by controlling the moment of a driving joint of a mechanical arm, and the indirect force control is realized by additionally controlling an end effector. The two methods have advantages and disadvantages: the former needs to build an accurate robot dynamics model and develop a real-time and robust force control algorithm, which is generally applicable to force control of a new generation of lightweight robots; the force-position hybrid control decoupling is realized by the additional force-control end effector, and the dynamic characteristic and the universality of the force control are better although the system cost is slightly increased, so that the force-position hybrid control decoupling device is generally suitable for high-speed heavy-load robots and has wide application prospect. In general, the response speed of direct force control is slow, the algorithm stability is poor, and industrial production is difficult to realize, so that the force control end effector is a reasonable choice, and developing a force control polishing end effector with active damping is a reasonable way for realizing the robot constant force polishing.

Further, the device also comprises a gas supply assembly; the air supply assembly comprises an air pressure gauge 27 and an air pressure gauge 28, a four-way valve 29 and a four-way valve 30, a proportional valve 31 and a proportional valve 32, an air supply tank 33 and an air compressor 34; the barometer 27 is connected with the rodless cavity of the cylinder, and the barometer 28 is connected with the rod cavity of the cylinder and is respectively used for measuring the air pressure of the rodless cavity and the rod cavity in the cylinder; the first port of the four-way valve 29 is connected with the rodless cavity of the cylinder, and the second port is connected with the proportional valve 31; the first port of the four-way valve 30 is connected with a rod cavity of the cylinder, and the second port is connected with the proportional valve 32; the third ports of the four-way valve 29 and the four-way valve 30 are communicated with air, and the fourth ports are in a closed state; the air compressor 34 is connected with the air supply tank 33; the air supply tank 33 is connected to the two proportional valves 29, and is used for delivering the air supplied by the air compressor 34 to the two proportional valves, and controlling the air pressure to a preset air pressure value through the proportional valves, and delivering the air to the air cylinders.
Specifically, referring to fig. 4, the interior of the cylinder is divided into a rod cavity and a rodless cavity by a cylinder rod partition, wherein the cavity where the rib rod with the cylinder rod is located is the rod cavity; when the cylinder is sealed after the air pressure for balancing the rodless cavity and the rod cavity is introduced into the cylinder through the air supply tank 33, the cylinder rod moves along with the piston in the axial movement process of the lower connecting plate 12 along the linear guide shaft, and the air pressure in the rod cavity and the air pressure in the rodless cavity are out of balance, so that damping is generated.
Specifically, since the areas of the rod cavity and the rodless cavity in the cylinder are different, and the balance in the cavity is related to the air pressure and the area, when the air pressure in the cylinder is in a balanced state, the air pressure is different, and thus two proportional valves 29 and two four-way valves are used for ventilation respectively, and two four-way valves and two barometers are correspondingly configured; when the cylinders use different numbers according to the needs, the number of the barometer, the proportional valve and the four-way valve can be correspondingly changed along with the number of the barometer, the proportional valve and the four-way valve, or a mode that rodless cavities of all the cylinders are connected with the same barometer and the same proportional valve and rod cavities of all the cylinders are connected with another barometer and another proportional valve is adopted, and the method is not limited.
In this embodiment, the four-way valve may be a three-position four-way solenoid valve, which has three control positions, and the distribution is a left position, a middle position, and a right position. Referring to fig. 4, the four-way valve 29 and the four-way valve 30 include four ports, and the upper left port is a first port communicating with the cylinder 25 as described in the orientation of fig. 4; the lower left through hole is a second through hole and is communicated with the proportional valve 31; the lower right through hole is a third through hole and is communicated with the outside air; the upper right through hole is a fourth through hole and is in a closed state.
When the four-way valve is opened at the left side, the first port is communicated with the second port, the third port is communicated with the fourth port, and at the moment, the proportional valve can be used for introducing gas into the cylinder through the four-way valve.
When the four-way valve is opened at the middle position, the four ports are not communicated with each other, and the main gas circuit is in an open-circuit closed state.
When the four-way valve is opened to the right side, the first port is communicated with the third port, and at the moment, the gas in the cylinder can be discharged out through the four-way valve 28 and the four-way valve 29, so that damping is not provided; the second port is communicated with the fourth port, and the proportional valve is in an open circuit state.
Further, the number of cylinders is two, namely, a cylinder 25 and a cylinder 26.
In the process of polishing and grinding the robot, when the end effector reaches a designated position, the polishing disc 15 is in contact with a workpiece, and an ideal axial force is applied, the two four-way valves are opened at the left side, the air channel is in a communication state, the air compressor 34 compresses air and supplies the compressed air to the air supply tank 33, the air supply tank controls the air channel air pressure to a preset air pressure value through the proportional valve 31 and the proportional valve 32 respectively, and then the air is conveyed into the air cylinder 25 and the air cylinder 26 through the two four-way valves respectively. After the gas is conveyed, the air pressure in the rod cavity and the rodless cavity of the air cylinder reaches a balance value, the two four-way valves are controlled to be opened at the middle position, and at the moment, the two air cylinders are in a closed state, and the telescopic movement of the cylinder rod generates damping, so that the polishing disc vibration of the voice coil motor caused by the fact that the polishing position is changed by an end effector in the polishing process or other external conditions is limited, and the change of axial force is reduced. When the ideal axial force needs to be adjusted greatly or needs to be changed, the right side position of the four-way valve 28 is controlled to be opened, and after the air exhaust is completed, the ventilation process is repeated when the damping is needed, and the air is re-ventilated to be in an equilibrium state.
