After the clamping structure 22 locks the first fixture a and the second fixture b, the driving structure 21 drives the clamping structure 22 to drive the first fixture a and the second fixture b to rotate relative to the driving structure 21.

[0068] The driving structure 21 is described below. In one embodiment, see Figure 3-6, the driving structure 21 includes:

[0076] The blocking block 7 is connected to the lifting mechanism and has a blocking block through hole 8, and the driving shaft is installed in the blocking block through hole 8 through a bearing.

[0077] In one embodiment, the blocking block 7 includes a stop portion 71 and an adjusting portion 72, and in the stop portion 71, the first positioning pin 5 or the second positioning pin 6 cannot withdraw from the first positioning hole or the second positioning hole, that is, when the first positioning pin 5 or the second positioning pin 6 is flipped to the stop portion 71 by the flip block 4, the tail of the first positioning pin 5 or the second positioning pin 6 is stopped by the stop portion 71, and the positioning pin at this position cannot withdraw from the first positioning hole or the second positioning hole, thereby locking the first fixture a and the second fixture b at this position, and the first fixture a or the second fixture b is fixed to the flip clamping mechanism through the positioning pin.

[0078] In the adjusting portion 72, the first positioning pin 5 and the second positioning pin 6 can withdraw from the first positioning hole or the second positioning hole, that is, when the first positioning pin 5 or the second positioning pin 6 is flipped to the adjusting portion 72 by the flip block 4, the first positioning pin 5 or the second positioning pin 6 can be adjusted by the adjusting portion 72, and when it is necessary to release the first jig a or the second jig b, the positioning pin at this position can be adjusted by the adjusting portion 72 to withdraw from the first positioning hole or the second positioning hole, thereby unlocking the first jig a and the second jig b at this position, and the first jig a or the second jig b can be released and released onto the jig conveying mechanism 1.

[0079] In one embodiment, in order to achieve flipping, the stop portion 71 and the adjusting portion 72 are arranged opposite to each other on the same side of the blocking block 7, and the stop portion 71 is located above the adjusting portion 72. In this way, when the jig needs to be released, the positioning pin on the lower adjusting portion 72 is adjusted, and the jig flipped to the lower side can be released.

[0080] In one embodiment, the adjusting unit 72 further comprises:

[0081] The positioning pin driving unit 721 can cooperate with the tail of the first positioning pin 5 or the second positioning pin 6 to actuate the first positioning pin 5 or the second positioning pin 6 to reciprocate relative to the flip block 4 in a direction parallel to the axis of the rotating shaft, so as to enter or exit the first positioning hole or the second positioning hole at the first position or the second position.

[0082] In order to realize the reciprocating movement of the positioning pin, in one embodiment, the adjusting portion 72 includes a through hole 722, and at least a portion of the positioning pin driving portion 721 passes through the through hole 722 to drive the first positioning pin 5 or the second positioning pin 6 to enter or exit the first positioning hole or the second positioning hole.

[0083] In one embodiment, the first positioning pin and the second positioning pin both include a pulling pin L1, a pulling pin positioning plate L2 and a fixture positioning pin connected in sequence, and the pulling pin positioning plate L2 is used to limit the pulling pin L1, and limits the pulling pin L1 on the inner side of the flip block 4.

[0085] In one embodiment, the positioning pin driving unit 721 includes a pushing cylinder 9, wherein the pushing cylinder 9 includes a cylinder body and a piston rod, wherein the piston rod includes a first end located in the cylinder body and a second end opposite to the first end;

[0087] The positioning pin clamping portion 10 has a buckle 101 that can be clamped with the tail of the first positioning pin 5 or the second positioning pin 6. When the first jig a and the second jig b need to be fixed together, the positioning pin clamping portion 10 moves outward under the action of the push cylinder 9. After moving to a suitable position, the driving shaft drives the flip block 4 to flip, and the tail of the positioning pin is clamped into the buckle 101. At this time, the first jig a and the second jig b are locked together. Next, continue to flip. In one embodiment, after flipping 180°, the first jig a is located at the top and the second jig b is located at the bottom. At this time, the first jig a and the second jig b need to be separated, the second jig b is fixed, and the first jig a is released.

[0088] In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to facilitate operation, the non-offset turning device of the present invention further includes a frame 11 , and the article turning area z is located on the frame 11 .

[0089] In one embodiment of the present invention, the non-offset flipping device of the present invention further includes a blocking positioning mechanism 13, which is fixedly connected to the lifting mechanism 3 and is used to block and position the first fixture a and the second fixture b.

[0090] In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to improve work efficiency and achieve the purpose of automated production, the non-offset flipping device also includes a control module (not shown in the figure), which is used to control the non-offset flipping device to transfer the article from the first fixture to the second fixture or from the second fixture to the first fixture. In addition, the control module can also control the non-offset flipping device to perform other related operations to achieve object flipping, which are not specifically limited here.

[0091] Specifically, the control module includes a positioning sensor and a PLC controller.

[0092] The positioning sensor detects positioning signals of the first fixture and the second fixture, and sends the positioning signals to the PLC controller;

[0093] The PLC controller is electrically connected to the lifting mechanism, the fixture conveying mechanism and the flip clamping mechanism, and controls according to the positioning signal:

[0094] ① The up and down movement of the lifting mechanism;

[0095] ② The jig conveying mechanism moves the first jig and / or the second jig in / out;

[0096] ③ The flip clamping mechanism locks, flips, and unlocks the first fixture and / or the second fixture.

[0097] In one embodiment, the article includes a ceramic pixel unit. The ceramic pixel unit described in the present invention refers to a ceramic structure used for a pixel of an LED light source, such as the ceramic pixel unit applicable to patent numbers 201721313669.1 and 201721598648.9.

[0098] The present invention also provides a non-offset flipping method for a ceramic pixel unit, the method comprising the following steps:

[0099] a. moving a first fixture carrying at least one article into the article turning area through a fixture conveying mechanism;

[0100] b. After the first fixture enters the article turning area and stops, the lifting mechanism drives the turning clamping mechanism with the second fixture to move downward until the second fixture and the first fixture are covered;

[0101] c. Locking the positions of the first fixture and the second fixture so that the object is fixed between the first fixture and the second fixture;

[0102] d. Move the locked first fixture and the second fixture upward, so that the first fixture and the second fixture are flipped from the first position to the second position, so that the article is transferred from the first fixture to the second fixture;

[0103] e. Move the first fixture and the second fixture downward to unlock the positions of the first fixture and the second fixture;

[0104] f. Move the second fixture carrying the article out of the article turning area through the fixture conveying mechanism, and repeat step a after the lifting mechanism returns to its original position.

[0105] The working process of the non-offset flipping device for ceramic pixel units of the present invention is briefly described below.

[0106] After the conveyor line of the jig conveying mechanism 1 sends the first jig a filled with ceramic pixel units to the position blocking positioning mechanism 13 for positioning, the lifting cylinder of the lifting mechanism 3 is started to flip the clamping mechanism 2 downward, driving the second jig b in the mechanism to cover the first jig a on the conveyor line, and it is in a pre-clamping state.

[0107] Start the push cylinder 9 to push the positioning pin clamping part 10 forward, which is transmitted to the pull pin, fixing plate and fixture positioning pin of the second positioning pin 6. The fixture positioning pin locks the first fixture a filled with products below forward and puts it in the clamped state.

[0108] Start the lifting cylinder to lift the mechanism away from the conveyor line. Since the positioning pin clamping part 10 is pushed forward, the pull pin and the blocking block 7 are not in a locked state. Therefore, the first drive shaft 21a, the coupling, the second drive shaft 21b, and the flip block 4 can be flipped 180° by starting the rotating cylinder 211. The first positioning pin 5 rotated to the top is blocked and locked by the blocking block 7, so that the fixture positioning pin locks the first fixture a that has just entered the mechanism and will not fall due to the flipping. After the flipping is completed, the first fixture a that has just entered the mechanism is at the top, and the second fixture b is at the bottom. The ceramic pixel unit falls into the second fixture b due to gravity, and the whole is in a flipped state.

[0109] Start the lifting cylinder to move the flipping clamping mechanism downward and send the mechanism back to the conveying part, start the pushing cylinder 9 to contract, and the positioning pin clamping part 10, the pulling pin of the first positioning pin 5, the fixing plate, and the fixture positioning pin will be contracted in a linked manner. At this time, the pulling pin is pulled into the flipping block 4 by the positioning pin clamping part 10 and locked, completing the positioning, so that the second fixture b filled with ceramic pixel units is detached from the flipping clamping mechanism. At this time, the mechanism is in a released state.

[0110] The lifting cylinder is started to lift the mechanism up and away from the conveyor line, leaving the second fixture b filled with a whole tray of ceramic pixel units on the conveyor line, completing the fixture conversion, and then starting the conveyor line to flow to the next process.

[0111] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a non-offset flipping device and flipping method for ceramic pixel units, which adopts a flipping clamping mechanism to solve the problem of switching a whole tray of items between different jigs. The jig is driven up and down, the jig is locked by the flipping clamping mechanism, and the action is completed by flipping. Then the jig is released to complete the clamping and flipping functions, thereby realizing the precise and non-offset switching of a whole tray of items between different jigs. The rationality of the product structure, the reliability and simplicity of use, and the operating efficiency are effectively improved. The device is easy to process, has high precision, and low cost, and is conducive to mass production.
