Robotic arm assembly

 

Prepare the following structure.

image.png 

Use two M3X16 screws and two M3 nuts to fix the three acrylic panels shown above on the aluminum alloy base of the robotic arm.

image.png 

Prepare the acrylic panel shown on the right side of the above picture. There is no need to fix it on the assembled component. Since the acrylic panel on the right has directions, the rendering diagram will fix it on the component to indicate the subsequent assembly position.

image.png 

Prepare the acrylic panel and acrylic gasket as shown in the picture above.

image.png 

Use M3X16 screws and M3-LOCK lock nuts to fix the acrylic panel and acrylic washer as shown in the figure on the side panel. It should be noted that the lock nut should not be tightened too tightly, because this is the rotating pair of the movable part. After tightening, it will not be able to rotate and the servo will be blocked. Note: All lock nuts involved in this document should not be tightened.

A Cross Socket Wrench is required for screwing self-locking nuts.

Use M2X8 screws and M2 nuts to fix the AD002 servo on the acrylic panel shown in the figure above. The acrylic panel here is similar in shape to the acrylic panel just installed, except that there are more mounting holes for fixing the servo.

It looks like the picture above after installation.

Prepare the acrylic panel (top panel of GRIPPER) and AD002 servo as shown in the picture.

Use M2X8 screws and M2 nuts to fix AD002 servo to the upper panel of the arm chuck.

Assemble the upper panel and lower panel of the chuck. Here you can load the gear shown above between the servo arm and the lower panel. For the time being, you don’t need to fix it. You only need to know that the gear is installed here. The gear is clamped in this position to avoid the gear cannot be installed due to too small gap after assembly.

Installing the robotic arm

 

Use M3*10 screws to fix the position of the robot arm, and use two M1.7*6*6 self-tapping screws to fix the direction of the robot arm. Use M3 lock nut to fix the other end.

Install Ultrasonic Mode

 

When using the ultrasonic mode, the camera installation method is the same as the PTZ installation method. Because the shovel is equipped with a camera, when the ultrasonic mode is selected, the camera on the PTZ must be removed and installed in the designated position.

Use M1.4*6 to install the ultrasonic, and use M2*8 screws to pass through the aluminum alloy, M2 nut, camera, and M2 nut in turn (8 M2 nuts are required to install the camera). Install large LED lights.

(Note: In the new version of the kit, the M1.4*6 self-tapping screws for installing the ultrasonic module are changed to M1.6*10 screws and fixed with M1.6 nuts. )

image.png 

Install ultrasonic mode. It is the same as the method of installing the robot arm. Use M3*10 screws to fix the position of the robot arm, and use two M1.7*6*6 self-tapping screws to fix the direction of the robot arm. Use M3 lock nut to fix the other end.

Wiring method

1. If you don't know how to connect the camera, you can refer to the official documentation of the Raspberry Pi camera.

2. The motor on the left is connected to the MOTOR-B port; the motor on the right is connected to the MOTOR-A port.

3. The bottom servo that controls the left and right steering of the PiCarPro car is connected to the port0 servo port of the drive board.

4. Control the servo that swings the PTZ assembly to the left and right, and connect to the Port 1 servo port of the drive board.

5. The servo that controls the robotic arm or ultrasonic swing up and down on the PTZ is connected to the Port 2 servo port.

6. The servo that controls the up and down movement of the chuck is connected to the Port 3 servo port.

7. The servo that controls the clamping action of the chuck is connected to the Port 4 servo port.

8. The ultrasonic module is connected to the Ultrasonic port with a 4pin wire. Never connect the ultrasonic to the IIC port, which will cause permanent damage to the ultrasonic module.

9. The WS2812 light bar is connected to the WS2812 port with a 3pin wire. Note here that the signal to control the light is sent by the Raspberry Pi and sent to the WS2812 light bar with the 3PIN wire with the driver board. It needs to be connected from the light bar with a white stripe. (The interface text on the back of this end is marked IN), connect from the other end of the light bar (the interface is marked OUT) and then connect to the input end of the next light bar with the 3PIN wire (It is painted with white stripes, and the interface is marked with IN).

10. The OLED screen is connected to the IIC port of the driver board with a 4PIN wire.

11. MPU6050 is inserted into the 8PIN DuPont port on the front of the driver board.

12. The two front LED lights can be connected to any interface in Port1, Port2, and Port3 (the large LED light in ultrasonic mode is connected to the remaining interface).

13. Connect the power supply to the VIN port.
