[0051] Working process: During loading, the moving part drives the flipping part to the rear of the bed. The moving flipping mechanism 3 is equipped with a gripping suction cup 23. After the gripping suction cup 23 grips the workpiece 7 to be processed, the moving flipping mechanism 3 moves to the front of the bed 2 and lowers after reaching the set position. The positioning cylinders at both ends of the bed 2 rise to position the workpiece 7 to be processed. After the workpiece 7 is positioned in the length direction, the processing action is performed after loading is completed. The lifting cylinder 6 inside the bed 2 lifts the workpiece 7 with the back hole groove already processed. The moving flipping mechanism 3 is located at the set position at the front of the bed 2. The lifting cylinder 6 lifts the workpiece 7 to be processed to the initial position of the flipping part so that the flipping part can fix the workpiece. The cover plate is opened, and the fixing flipping mechanism 4 slides up and down through the guide rail and slider 21 in the linear guide rail 20. The sliding is driven by the second cylinder. When the rotating groove 18 in the moving flipping mechanism 3 is at a high position... The height of the rotating groove 13 in the fixed flipping mechanism 4 is consistent with the height of the rotating groove 13. The two ends of the plate to be processed 7 can be precisely locked in the rotating groove 13 and the rotating groove 18. The lifting cylinder 6 is lowered, and then cylinder 14 and cylinder 2 are raised, driving the plate to be processed 7 to a height higher than half the width of the plate 7. The initial height is set to 640mm. After reaching the height, the reduction motor 12 and reduction motor 29 are started, synchronously driving the plate to be processed 7 to rotate 180 degrees. After the flipping action is completed, the lifting cylinder 6 is raised. Cylinder 14 in the moving flipping mechanism 3 and cylinder 2 in the fixed flipping mechanism 4 are retracted, driving the rotating groove 13 and the rotating groove 18 to fall down. The plate to be processed 7 falls to the initial position, which is the height of the lifting cylinder 6, and falls onto the lifting cylinder 6. The moving part moves forward a certain displacement, so that the rotating groove 13 and the rotating groove 18 are disengaged from the plate to be processed 7. After the flipping is completed, a secondary positioning operation is performed.
