Description
本申请涉及机械设备领域,具体涉及一种用于抓取物体的电动夹爪。
电动夹爪作为机械臂的末端夹取装置,在工业自动化领域中有着广泛的应用。电动夹爪按手指数分主要有两指平动型和三指型,工业自动化领域以两指平动型应用较多,两指平动的运动实现主要有齿轮齿条传动、凸轮传动以及滚珠丝杠传动三种实现方式动力。
通常使用齿轮齿条传动的电动夹爪中,齿条与滑块固定,滑块为两个,其滑动设置在滑动座上,并且每个滑块都具有凸起的爪体。电动夹爪的动力由驱动电机经过4级渐开线平行轴传动机构传递到齿条,然后经过减震器将动力传递给滑块,从而通过驱动电机驱动爪体相向或背离运动来完成对物体的夹取和释放。为了防止滑块在运动过程中产生以运动方向为轴心的转动,通常还会在滑块远离滑动座的一侧设置支撑轴,利用支撑轴与滑动座形成一个限位结构,防止滑块以运动方向为轴心的转动。
但是,这种电动夹爪中齿条镶嵌在滑块的中部,为了形成较好的限位,支撑轴需要同时与滑块位于齿条上下两侧的部位滑动接触形成限位,因此滑块位于齿条上下两侧的部位都是凸出于齿条的。又为了保证齿条和齿轮能够良好的啮合,滑块位于齿条下方的部分需要形成开口,以便齿轮从开口处与齿条啮合。这种电动夹爪结构复杂,在需要进行大行程设计时,不仅齿条需要加长,而且滑块的结构需要根据齿条位置重新设计。

实施例一:
本实施例提供了一种电动夹爪,其由驱动电机进行驱动,实现对物体的夹取和释放。
请参考图1,该电动夹爪包括支撑座100、驱动电机200、齿轮传动机构300、齿条400、滑动座500、滑动件600、长支撑轴710以及短支撑轴720。
该驱动电机200固定设置在支撑座100上。该支撑座100可以作为电动夹爪的支撑部件,其可以形成一个壳体结构,驱动电机200可以收容在壳体结构内。支撑座100可以包括多个部分,该多个部分通过螺钉101等方式固定连接在一起。该齿轮传动机构300用以完成对动力的传递,其由驱动电机200进行驱动,最终将驱动电机200输出的运动传递到齿条400上。
该齿条400为两条,该两条齿条400分别与齿轮传动机构300的输出齿301啮合,用以在电机的驱动下产生相向或背离运动。其中,两条齿条400可以如图2和3所示这样以啮合部相对的方式设置在齿轮传动机构300的输出齿301的两侧,利用同一个输出齿301就可带动两条齿条400实现相向或背离运动。当然,在其他的实施例中,每条齿条400也可以分别采用不同的输出齿301来带动。
该滑动座500包括一对相对设置的支撑壁510。该滑动座500可以是固定安装在支撑座100上。其中,该滑动座500作为滑动件600的支撑。该两个滑动件600分别可滑动地设置在两个支撑壁510上。一个滑动件600对应与一个齿条400固定连接,这样齿条400移动时将带动滑动件600移动。该滑动件600可以是一种滑块或其他结构。
请参考图2和3,该滑动件600具有上限位部610、安装位620、下限位部630和突出设置的爪体640。该两个滑动件600的爪体640用于在两个滑动件600相向或背离运动时夹持或释放物体。该上限位部610、下限位部630和安装位620横向设置在滑动件600远离对应支撑壁510的一侧,该横向是指图1所示的左右方向。
该齿条400固定安装在安装位620内。该安装位620可以是一个平面、凹面或凸面等各种结构。请参考图2,齿条400可通过螺钉402固定在滑动件600上。另外,如图2所示,也可以设置定位孔或定位轴401用于定位齿条400在滑动件600上的位置。
请继续参考图2和3,该上限位部610和下限位部630分别位于齿条400的上下两侧。该上限位部610的限位面611从齿条400上方向远离支撑壁510的方向凸出于齿条400,长支撑轴710固定设置并与上限位部610的限位面611进行配合,用于与滑动座500的支撑壁510一起对滑动件600进行限位。该齿条400至少啮合部从下限位部630的上方向远离支撑壁510的方向凸出于下限位部630的限位面631。该啮合部是指齿条400上用于与输出齿301啮合的部位。该下限位部630的限位面631整体向支撑壁510一侧回缩,整个限位面631均与齿轮传动机构300的输出齿301分离,在滑动件600整个移动过程中都不与输出齿301接触,因此不会影响输出齿301与齿条400的啮合。该短支撑轴720固定设置并与下限位部630的限位面进行配合,用于与滑动座500的支撑壁510一起对滑动件600进行限位。
当本夹爪需要进行大行程设计时,只需按照需要的行程加长滑动件600、齿条400以及其他部件的长度即可,无需改变支撑轴的位置。而且本电动夹爪采用了长短两种支撑轴进行限位支撑,其支撑点更多,更加可靠。
该上限位部610、下限位部630和安装位620可以是整个贯通在滑动件600的一侧,即从滑动件600的一端(最左端)延伸到滑动件600的另一端(最右端),这样不仅制造简单,而且在要做大行程时,只需直接增加滑动件600尺寸即可,不用改变上限位部610、下限位部630和安装位620的位置。
进一步地,请继续参考图2和3,在一种实施例中,该短支撑轴720竖直设置,其外周面与下限位部630的限位面进行配合,该短支撑轴720的上端面支撑齿条400的底部,以提高齿条400在滑动件600上的固定效果。
同样的,长支撑轴710也可以竖直设置,其外周面与上限位部610的限位面进行配合。该长支撑轴710比短支撑轴720长,其相对短支撑轴720更远离支撑壁510。
请参考图3,一种实施例中,该长支撑轴710位于两个滑动件600之间,该两个滑动件600共用长支撑轴710,这样使得电动夹爪的结构更加紧凑。
该长支撑轴710和短支撑轴720可以采用光轴,这样可以减小滑动件600与长支撑轴710和短支撑轴720之间的摩擦力。
请继续参考图2和3,在一种实施例中,该长支撑轴710为至少两个。该齿轮传动机构300的输出齿301两侧分别竖直设置至少一个长支撑轴710,该短支撑轴720位于长支撑轴710和对应支撑壁510之间,且其位置与该长支撑轴710对齐。如图2所示,这里所说的对齐是指一个长支撑轴710和对应的一个短支撑轴720在Y轴方向上位于同一直线。
当然,在其他实施例中,该短支撑轴720也可以是与长支撑轴710非对齐的。而且其数量可以与长支撑轴710一致或者不同。
请参考图2和3,在一种实施例中,该长支撑轴710和短支撑轴720均选用2个,其对称的分布在输出齿301的两侧。请参考图2,两个长支撑轴710在X轴方向位于同一直线上,两者之间的距离为L1,两个短支撑轴720在X轴方向也位于同一直线上。一种实施例中,滑动件600在X轴方向上滑动空间的长度为L2,滑动件600在X轴方向上的长度加上其滑动空间的总长度为L,其中L1的长度满足:L1<L-2×L2,这可以使得滑动件600滑动到极限位置时,滑动件600的一端不会从一侧长支撑轴710所限定的空间内脱落。
进一步地,请继续参考图2和3,在一种实施例中,该上限位部610、安装位620和下限位部630形成阶梯状的外壁。该安装位620和下限位部630的限位面位于第一级阶梯A的同一侧壁上。上限位部610的限位面位于第二级阶梯B的侧壁上,且上限位部610的限位面611与下限位部630的限位面631平行。这种结构对滑动件600来说更容易加工,而且下限位部630和齿条400之间形成了足够的空间来安装短支撑轴720。
进一步地,请继续参考图2和3,在一种实施例中,滑动座500包括底座520,两个支撑壁510固定设置在底座520的两侧,该齿轮传动机构300的输出齿301通过轴承650安装在底座520上。
其中,该轴承650可设计为外周与下限位部630的限位面配合,对下限位部630形成限位,从而提高对滑动件600的限定作用。
该底座520可以安装在支撑座100上,例如如图1所示,利用螺钉501固定连接,从而与支撑座100围成一个封闭的空间。驱动电机200安装在该封闭空间内,而齿轮传动机构300除输出齿301从底座520伸出,其他部分也收容在该封闭空间内,从而对驱动电机200和齿轮传动机构300起到保护作用,同时也可防止灰尘等杂物进入。
请参考图3,一种实施例中,该滑动件600与对应的支撑壁510之间设置有导轨槽,该导轨槽内安装有交叉滚子轴承810。在其他实施例中,滑动件600和支撑壁510之间还可以采用其他方式的导向结构进行导向和限位。
进一步地,通常的电动夹爪中会安装电动卡尺,该电动卡尺指:电动夹爪在夹取工件时,可判断工件夹取位置的尺寸是否在设定尺寸公差范围内的装置。
鉴于现有电动夹爪的结构,由于采用渐开线平行轴外啮合传动,同时啮合的齿轮只有一对,抗冲击性不好。为了提高传动的抗冲击性,不得不在齿条400两侧增加减震器来缓冲。由于减震器的弹性变形使得滑块的运动与马达输出轴的转动不线性相关,因而夹爪的电动卡尺功能不能直接由马达输出轴端的编码器实现。要实现夹爪的电动卡尺功能,需要在手指上另外安装距离传感器,成本较高。
对此,在一种实施例中,该齿轮传动机构300采用两级渐开线行星传动机构,其由驱动电机200的输出端驱动。该两级渐开线行星传动机构的输出端与齿条400啮合。
具体地,请参考图4-6,一种实施例中,该两级渐开线行星传动机构包括输出齿轴301、卡簧302、垫片303、内齿外壳304、含油轴承305、输出架306、第二级行星齿307、第一级行星架308、第一级行星齿309、第二垫片310、座体311。驱动电机200的输出齿201与行星传动机构连接。驱动电机200具有铜套202和信号磁铁203。
请参考图1、4、5,当驱动电机200转动时,编码器900感应与驱动电机200输出轴联接的磁铁203所转过的角度。动力通过两级渐开线行星传动机构300放大后通过输出齿301传递给两个相对放置的齿条400。齿条400与滑动件600刚性联接。
本实施例通过采用渐开线行星传动提高了传动部分的抗冲击性,该齿轮齿条400采用刚性联接,不仅使得齿条400在安装到滑动件600时可省略减震器,而且实现了从马达转角与滑动件600移动的高度线性一致,使得不用在输出端额外增加距离传感器便可实现电动卡尺功能,节约了客户的使用成本。
如图6所示,该实施例中行星传动部分齿轮314的均布数量为3个。当然,在其他实施例中,该行星传动部分齿轮314的均布数量也可以为4个或更多。
进一步地,通常的电动夹爪中,如果要对齿轮渐开线平行轴传动部分、输出齿301、齿条400以及交叉滚子保持架部分的灰尘和变质润滑脂进行清洗并补充新的润滑脂,则需要将夹爪的传动部分全部拆卸,操作非常不便。
请参考图7和8,一种实施例中,该滑动座500还包括两个盖板530。该底座520和支撑壁510围成U形槽结构,该两个盖板530分别可拆卸地安装在U形槽结构的两端开口处,使滑动座500围成一个腔体。上限位部610、下限位部630、安装位620、齿条400、长支撑轴710和短支撑轴720都安装在该腔体内,该爪体640从腔体内伸出。
该两侧盖板530可通过两颗螺丝540与支撑壁510联接。当然,盖板530也可采用可拆卸的胶塞。该电动夹爪需要维护时,可将螺丝卸下,取下盖板530即可方便进行清洗或添加润滑油脂的维护作业。
以上应用了具体个例对本发明进行阐述,只是用于帮助理解本发明,并不用以限制本发明。对于本领域的一般技术人员,依据本发明的思想,可以对上述具体实施方式进行变化。
