Background technology
When traditional industrial robot gradually replaces dullness, the work that repeatability is high, danger is strong, cooperate robot
Each industrial circle is slowly penetrated into, with people's cooperation.Lightweight robotic during robot cooperate as industrial robot, in the past
Industrial robot is to replace artificial with machinery and reduce human cost, and the robot that cooperates mainly assists the mankind and and people
Class together operation, and need not being isolated using safe fence, is solved the mankind compared with the degree of accuracy for being difficult to reach or allows the mankind
Away from dangerous environment and work.Core building block of the cooperation robot joint structure as cooperation robot, its performance
Seem most important in whole cooperation robot kinematics.Its main feature have modularity, flexibility, integrated, dexterous,
Safety and can bear.Want more relatively simple than the structure of conventional industrial robot, fixed, heavy, this kind of cooperation joint of robot knot
Structure is designed using modular, and there is replaceability between each joint, can constitute 4~7 degree of freedom machinery by independent assortment
Arm, its structure more diversification, dexterousr, the application of the more complex environments of adaptation.Current global collaboration robot representative master
ABB to be had, storehouse card, UR etc..
Patent (CN201510181154.X) describe a kind of can variable freedom modular mechanical shoulder joint, as shown in Figure 1.
Its principle is:The brake gear 4 is installed on rear end cap 305, including electric magnet 401, brake catch 402, positioning snap ring 403
With three crest pads 404.Wherein, electric magnet 401 by L-type support at 305 outer rim of rear end cap, positioning snap ring 403 with
Three crest packing rings 404 are 2, and brake catch 402 is 1, using the decussate texture in circumference with four spacing levers.
2 three crest packing rings 404 are with brake catch 402 according to tri- crest packing ring 404- brake catch 402- of positioning snap ring 403-, tri- ripples
The order of peak packing ring 404- positioning snap rings 403 is enclosed within quill shaft 303, as shown in figure 5, and near 303 shaft end of quill shaft
Shielding plate 405 is additionally provided between three crest packing rings 404 and positioning snap ring 403, the structure of 2 locator card interannulars is blocked.
Wherein, 2 positioning snap rings 403 are fixed in the groove that design in 303 circumference of quill shaft, and by 2 three crest packing rings 404 and 1
It is fixed between individual brake 402 three of catch.Can ensure in this utility model joint of mechanical arm not from there through brake gear 4
When upper electricity or generation emergency situations, the device so as to ensure personal safety promptly can be mechanically braked.Normal work
When making, electric adhesive on electric magnet 401, brake catch 402 can be rotated freely;When break down power down when, electric magnet 401 is released
Put, after the spacing lever of extremely brake catch is contacted with electromagnetism iron, stopped by electromagnetism iron, and then will be locked for brake catch 402,
Which is prevented from freely rotating, so that quill shaft 303 is stalled, the purpose of brake is reached.Because brake principle be by power on/off when
Electromagnetism push rod stretches to stop that brake catch reaches the function of brake, and during braking, electromagnetism push rod caloric value is big, to electromagnetism push rod
Dynamic response requirement is very high, easily occur push rod brake catch directly over phenomenon, during pusher retracted, brake catch fail in time
Braking, also needs to continue to rotate to an angle just brake.And brake force is mainly determined by electromagnetism iron and brake catch intensity,
Brake force is limited.The push rod intensity of electromagnetism push rod there are certain requirements, when brake force is larger, the easy bending of push rod or folding
Disconnected.This braking principle, is to be contacted with brake catch with electric magnet iron, reaches braking function.Application position is not 360 ° of full sides
To, there is very big gap.
In addition, without force feedback function or by current monitoring mode feedback moment, need not make as cooperation robot
Isolated with safe fence, so having very high requirement to its force feedback sensitivity, precision.In existing product technology
In, rarely have ripe scheme.
In view of above-mentioned defect, the design people, positive research and innovation in addition, to founding a kind of cooperation of new structure
Robot modularized series connection joint so as to more the value in industry.
