To address the issues of poor flexibility and complex operation in the connection structure between traditional robotic arms and end effectors, this paper designs a novel flip connection structure. This structure combines innovative flip mechanics with modular design, achieving a stable connection, flexible release, and multi-angle posture adjustment for the end effector. By employing a lightweight hinged mechanism that works in conjunction with a drive unit, the end effector can freely flip within a range of 0° to 180°, and it can adapt to various operational scenarios through a quick-change interface.

摘要

To address the issues of poor flexibility and complex operation in the connection structure between traditional robotic arms and end effectors, this paper designs a novel flip connection structure. This structure combines innovative flip mechanics with modular design, achieving a stable connection, flexible release, and multi-angle posture adjustment for the end effector. By employing a lightweight hinged mechanism that works in conjunction with a drive unit, the end effector can freely flip within a range of 0° to 180°, and it can adapt to various operational scenarios through a quick-change interface. The design has built a 3D model of the connection structure between the robotic arm and the end effector on the SolidWorks platform, and used ANSYS to perform static simulation analysis, fatigue analysis, and transient dynamic analysis on key load-bearing components. Experimental results indicate that this design performs well in terms of structural strength, operational precision, and connection reliability, providing new insights for the design of connection structures between robotic arms and end effectors.
