[0019] The specific implementation modes of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the present invention includes a frame 1, a flip frame 6 is a rectangular frame structure, two ends of the middle part of the flip frame 6 are provided with a rotating shaft 3, the flip frame 6 can be rotatably connected to the frame 1 through the rotating shaft 3, the flip sprocket 8 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 3 at one end of the flip frame 6, the double-axis magnetic cylinder 12 is horizontally arranged below the flip sprocket 8, the double-axis ends of the double-axis magnetic cylinder 12 are fixedly connected to the frame 1, the chain connecting frame 11 is fixedly arranged on the cylinder body of the double-axis magnetic cylinder 12, and two movable bolts 13 ( Figure 3), two transition sprockets 10 are symmetrically arranged on the frame below the flip sprocket 8, and the chain 9 passes around the flip sprocket 8 and the two transition sprockets 10. Two movable bolts 13 are connected to the two ends of the chain 9 respectively. When the cylinder body of the double-axis magnetic cylinder 12 moves, the flip sprocket 8 is driven to rotate by the chain 9, thereby driving the flip frame 6 to flip. Through the coordination of the stroke of the double-axis magnetic cylinder 12 and the size of the flip sprocket 8, the flip of the flip frame 6 at any angle can be achieved. A number of gas cylinder positioning seats 5 evenly distributed in the horizontal direction are arranged in the middle of the flip frame 6. The gas cylinder positioning seat 5 is provided with two positioning seat plates 51, and the two positioning seat plates 51 are arranged in a V shape. The gas cylinder is positioned by the two positioning seat plates 51 arranged in a V shape. A bottle clamping mechanism 4 corresponding to the number of gas cylinder positioning seats 5 for clamping the gas cylinder in the horizontal direction is arranged on one side of the gas cylinder positioning seat 5; a bottle pressing mechanism 7 for pressing the gas cylinder in the vertical direction is arranged on the upper part of the flip frame 6. The number of gas cylinder positioning seats 5 provided on the flip frame 6 can be determined according to actual needs. In this embodiment, six gas cylinder positioning seats 5 evenly distributed in the horizontal direction are provided in the middle of the flip frame 6, and six gas cylinders can be clamped at one time for flipping. When an even number of gas cylinder positioning seats 5 evenly distributed in the horizontal direction are provided in the middle of the flip frame 6, one bottle clamping mechanism 4 is provided for every two gas cylinder positioning seats 5. In this embodiment, three bottle clamping mechanisms 4 are provided, and two gas cylinders are clamped simultaneously by one bottle clamping mechanism 4. The bottle clamping mechanism 4 includes a horizontally arranged bottle clamping cylinder 41, a cylinder connecting rod 48 is fixedly provided at the piston rod end of the bottle clamping cylinder 41, a horizontally arranged guide rod mounting plate 44 is fixedly connected to the cylinder connecting rod 48, a rod end of the cylinder connecting rod 48 is provided with four equally divided positioning holes, a cylinder sleeve 47 is rotatably connected to the rod end of the cylinder connecting rod 48, a bottle clamping crossbeam 46 is rotatably connected to the cylinder sleeve 47 through a pin, and the bottle clamping crossbeam 46 can be within the range of about ±5° to 10°. The cylinder sleeve 47 swings relative to the cylinder sleeve so that the gas cylinder can be clamped better. Two bottle clamping seats 45 are arranged at both ends of the bottle clamping beam 46. The bottle clamping seat 45 is provided with two bottle clamping seat plates 49. The two bottle clamping seat plates 49 are arranged in a V shape. A ball screw 40 for positioning the bottle clamping beam 46 is provided on the cylinder sleeve 47. The ball screw 40 cooperates with the four-equally divided positioning holes on the rod end of the cylinder connecting rod 48 to enable the bottle clamping beam 46 to change its positioning between the horizontal position and the vertical position. Two horizontally arranged guide rods 42 are fixedly connected to the two ends of the guide rod mounting plate 44. The guide rods 42 are slidably connected to the guide sleeves 43 fixedly arranged on the frame 1. The guide rods 42 and the guide sleeves 43 guide the two bottle clamping seats 45 connected to the two ends of the bottle clamping cross beam 46. When the piston rod of the bottle clamping cylinder 41 retracts, the gas cylinder is positioned and clamped between the gas cylinder positioning seat 5 and the bottle clamping seat 45. Such a structure allows one bottle clamping cylinder 41 of the bottle clamping mechanism 4 to clamp two gas cylinders at the same time, thereby ensuring the clamping of the gas cylinders and reducing the manufacturing cost. A bottle pressing mechanism 7 is provided on the upper part of the flip frame 6. The bottle pressing mechanism 7 includes two vertical linear guide rails 71 ( Figure 1), the two ends of the horizontally arranged lifting beam 73 are connected to the linear guide rail 71, the two ends of the vertically arranged screw rod 72 can be rotatably connected to the two upper cross bars 61 of the flip frame 6, the lower end of the screw rod 72 is provided with a hand wheel 76, the screw rod nut 74 threadedly connected to the screw rod 72 is fixedly connected to the lifting beam 73, the gas cylinder pressing plate 75 is connected to the lifting beam 73, and the gas cylinder pressing plate 75 is provided with U-shaped bottle pressing grooves 77 (the same number as the gas cylinder positioning seat 5) Figure 2 ).
[0021] In actual operation, in the initial state, the flip frame 6 is in a vertical state, the lifting beam 73 of the bottle pressing mechanism 7 is in an ascending state, the piston rod of the bottle clamping cylinder 41 of the bottle clamping mechanism 4 is in an extended state, and the bottle clamping cross beam 46 is in a vertical state. The gas cylinders to be operated are moved into the gas cylinder positioning seat 5 in sequence, with the bottle mouth of the gas cylinder facing upward and the bottom of the gas cylinder directly placed on the ground below the equipment. The operator manually adjusts the bottle clamping cross beam 46 of the bottle clamping mechanism 4 to a horizontal state (positioned by a ball screw), operates the control valve of the bottle clamping cylinder 41 to retract the piston rod of the bottle clamping cylinder 41, and the gas cylinder is clamped horizontally between the bottle clamping seat 45 of the bottle clamping mechanism 4 and the gas cylinder positioning seat 5; operates the hand wheel 76 of the bottle pressing mechanism 7 to lower the gas cylinder pressure plate 75 and press the gas cylinder in the vertical direction; operates the control valve of the dual-axis magnetic cylinder 12, and the flip frame 6 is driven by the chain 9 to flip the gas cylinder together with the gas cylinder to a specified angle and then stop, so that multiple gas cylinders can be flipped and poured at the same time. After completion, perform the above-mentioned operations in reverse order, and the gas cylinder that has completed the operation can be reset and taken out.
[0022] The above operation is used for gas cylinders with larger sizes. For small gas cylinders with smaller diameters and lower heights, in this embodiment, the lower crossbeam 63 at the bottom of the flip frame 6 is provided with a small bottle support plate mechanism 2 having the same number as the gas cylinder positioning seat 5. The small bottle support plate mechanism 2 includes a support plate shaft 25 fixedly arranged on the lower crossbeam 63 at the bottom of the flip frame 6. The shaft sleeve 22 can be rotatably mounted on the support plate shaft 25. The small bottle support plate 21 is fixedly connected to the shaft sleeve 22. The upper end of the support plate shaft 25 is fixedly provided with a pressing plate 23, which limits the shaft sleeve 22 and prevents the small bottle support plate 21 from falling out. The shaft sleeve 22 is provided with a ball screw 24 for positioning the small bottle support plate 21. Two positioning holes separated by an angle of 180° are processed on the support plate shaft 25. The ball screw 24 and the corresponding positioning holes on the support plate shaft 25 make the small bottle support plate 21 stay at a certain position for easy operation. When turning over a small gas cylinder and pouring water, it is only necessary to rotate the small bottle support plate 21 of the small bottle support plate mechanism 2 to below the gas cylinder positioning seat 5 on the operating side, and lock the position of the small bottle support plate 21 with the ball screw 24. When putting in the gas cylinder, the small gas cylinder is supported by the small bottle support plate 21, and the subsequent clamping, turning over, and pouring water are the same as the above process. When a gas cylinder with a higher height is turned over, the small bottle support plate 21 is rotated 180° to the other side of the operating side, and the large gas cylinder is directly placed on the ground for turning over.
[0023] The present invention is easy and quick to operate, and can quickly flip and pour water for multiple gas cylinders, thereby reducing the labor intensity of operators, improving work efficiency, and reducing production costs. It can further realize the flipping and pouring of gas cylinders of different diameters and lengths by one device, and the present invention can also be used for other processes that require flipping gas cylinders.
