Abstract

A self-adjusting robot clamping jaw for clamping a hub on a hub coating line to complete transfer can realize certain self-adjustment via rotation of an upper connecting plate around a rotating pin in the clamping process when the wear extents of clamping fingers are inconsistent, and can prevent the phenomena that the hub is clamped obliquely and even a hub brace is bent by lateral force. The clamping fingers made of a soft material can prevent damaging the surface coating and can be convenient to replace.
