[0071] See also Figure 1 to Figure 3 An embodiment of the present invention provides a flipping and fixing mechanism 100 for assembling and installing a first workpiece 210 and a second workpiece 220 on an electronic product 200, comprising:

[0072] A platform 10, used for placing electronic products 200;

[0073] A fixed base 11 is connected to the platform 10, and a first component 111 is rotatably connected to the fixed base 11;

[0074] A first flip member 20 is connected to the first component 111 and a first mounting groove 21 is provided on the first flip member 20;

[0075] A second flip member 30, the second flip member 30 is detachably connected to the first flip member 20, a second mounting groove 31 is provided on the second flip member 30, and the first mounting groove 21 is arranged opposite to the second mounting groove 31;

[0076] The connecting rod 40 has a fixed end 41 and a free end 42 which are arranged opposite to each other, and the fixed end 41 is rotatably connected to the second flip member 30;

[0077] A connecting member 50, one end of which is movably disposed on the first flip member 20, and the other end of which is movably connected to the free end 42 of the connecting rod 40;

[0078] The first workpiece 210 is installed in the first installation groove 21, and the second workpiece 220 is installed in the second installation groove 31. The connecting rod 40 is used to drive the connecting member 50, and then drive the positioning plate to move relative to the first flip member 20, so that the first workpiece 210 and the second workpiece 220 are assembled into a finished part. The first component 111 is used to drive the first flip member 20 and the second flip member 30 to rotate toward the platform 10 to install the finished part on the electronic product 200.

[0079] See also Figure 2-Figure 3It should be explained that, in this embodiment, the finished part can be an SD card slot, which is installed on the electronic product 200 and is used to install an SD card. The first workpiece 210 can be a workpiece with a protruding ejector pin, and the second workpiece 220 can include an elastic clip-type card slot. One end of the SD card can be fixed to the second workpiece 220 by opening the elastic clip-type card slot. When the SD card needs to be removed, the ejector pin is pushed outward from the bottom end of the elastic clip-type card slot and opens the elastic clip-type card slot to release the fixation of the SD card, so that the SD card can be easily pulled out. The first workpiece 210 and the second workpiece 220 can be made of metal to increase the service life of the card slot. The first flip member 20 is embedded with the second flip member 30 on a surface close to it. In this embodiment, a boss 28 is provided on the embedding surface of the first flip member 20, and a recess 35 that can accommodate the boss 28 is provided on the embedding surface of the second flip member 30.

[0080] The connecting member 50 may include a first portion 51 and a second portion 52 connected to each other, wherein the first portion 51 is rotatably connected to the first connecting block 27, the first connecting block 27 is fixed to one side of the first flip member 20, and the second portion 52 is rotatably connected to one side of the fixed end 41 of the connecting rod 40. The top end of the fixed end 41 of the connecting rod 40 is rotatably connected to the second connecting block 34, and a certain distance is provided between the connection points of the second connecting block 34 and the second portion 52 at the fixed end 41. The second connecting block 34 is fixed to one side of the second flip member 30 and is on the same side of the first flip member 20 as the first connecting block 27. The first portion 51 and the second portion 52 of the connecting member 50 partially overlap, and the first portion 51 and the connecting rod 40 are as shown in FIG. Figure 2 See Figure 5 When in use, rotating the connecting rod 40 along the A direction can drive the connecting member 50 to rotate around the first connecting block 27 along the B direction, thereby driving the first flip member 20 and the second flip member 30 to fit together along the C direction. When the connecting rod 40 is rotated in the opposite direction of the A direction, the connecting rod 40 drives the connecting member 50 to rotate, thereby separating the first flip member 20 from the second flip member 30.

[0081] When in use, the first workpiece 210 is installed in the first installation groove 21 on the first flip member 20, and the second workpiece 220 is installed in the second installation groove 31 on the second flip member. Figure 4As shown. Rotate the connecting rod 40 in the direction A to drive the connecting member 50 to rotate in the direction B, so as to drive the first flip member 20 and the second flip member 30 to fit together, and then drive the first workpiece 210 and the second workpiece 220 to be assembled into one to form a finished part. Then rotate the first flip member 20 and the second flip member 30 in the direction C around the fixed base 11 toward the platform 10 to rotate and buckle the slot structure to the corresponding position on the electronic product 200, and fix the finished part. In this embodiment, the user can realize the assembly of the workpiece by rotating the connecting rod 40, and then install the assembled workpiece on the electronic product 200 by flipping. Compared with the prior art by rotating the handle and other methods, the operation is more convenient and the installation efficiency is effectively improved. Compared with the existing flip machine, this embodiment can perform more processes and significantly improve the production efficiency.

[0082] See also Figure 3-4 In one embodiment, a first guide pin 22 is provided on the first flip member 20, and a first guide hole 33 is provided on the second flip member 30. One end of the first guide pin 22 extending outside the first flip member 20 is movably disposed in the first guide hole 33. The first guide pin 22 and the first guide hole 33 are used to stabilize the moving direction of the second flip member 30 when cooperating with the first flip member 20, so that the first workpiece 210 and the second workpiece 220 will not deviate when assembled, thereby improving the assembly accuracy.

[0083] See also Figure 3 In one embodiment, the second flip member 30 is provided with a second guide pin 32, the first flip member 20 is provided with a second guide hole 23, and one end of the second guide pin 32 extending outside the second flip member 30 is movably disposed in the second guide hole 23. The second guide pin 32 and the second guide hole 23 are also used to stabilize the direction of the second flip member 30 when it moves relative to the first flip member 20, further improving the assembly accuracy.

[0084] In one embodiment, a protruding positioning portion 12 is disposed on the platform 10 , and the positioning portion 12 is used to position the outer edge of the electronic product 200 .

[0085] It should be explained that the positioning parts 12 can be a plurality of protruding cylinders, and the plurality of positioning parts 12 are arranged on the platform 10 at intervals and located on the outer peripheral side of the electronic product 200, so as to securely fix the electronic product 200 on the platform 10 through the positioning parts 12. The arrangement of the positioning parts 12 can ensure that the electronic product 200 is in the same position each time it is installed, thereby improving the accuracy of installing the finished parts on the electronic product 200.

[0086] See also Figure 7 In one embodiment, the platform 10 includes a movable top block 121 , which is connected to the platform 10 via a first spring 122 and is used to position the electronic product 200 .

[0087] In this embodiment, one end of the movable top block 121 includes an L-shaped component for engaging with a corner of the electronic product 200, and the other end of the movable top block 121 is connected to a positioning workpiece 123 through a first spring 122. The positioning workpiece 123 is hollow inside to accommodate the end of the movable top block 121 that is not in contact with the electronic product 200. The positioning workpiece 123 is fixed on the platform 10, so that the movable top block 121 is elastically connected to the platform 10, and the elastically connected movable top block 121 can move within a certain range. When the movable top block 121 is pressed to move toward the positioning workpiece 123, the first spring 122 is deformed under pressure, and the distance between the positioning portion 12 and the movable top block 121 is expanded, which makes it easier for the user to install or remove the electronic product 200 on the platform 10; when the movable top block 121 is released, the first spring 122 recovers from the deformation, so that the movable top block 121 moves toward the side of the electronic product 200, and the distance between the positioning portion 12 and the movable top block 121 is reduced, so that the outer peripheral side of the electronic product 200 abuts against the positioning portion 12 and the movable top block 121, and the electronic product 200 is firmly fixed on the platform 10. The provision of the movable top block 121 improves the convenience of installing and removing the electronic product 200, and further improves the production efficiency.

[0088] See also Figure 4 In one embodiment, the first flip member 20 also includes a magnetic block 24, which is disposed in the first mounting groove 21. A groove 241 is provided on the magnetic block 24. The first workpiece 210 includes a metal or magnetic part, and a part of the first workpiece 210 is disposed in the groove 241. The magnetic block 24 is used to adsorb the first workpiece 210.

[0089] In this embodiment, the magnetic block 24 connects the end of the first workpiece 210 away from the top rod to the groove 241 by magnetic adsorption. It should be explained that the first workpiece 210 is connected to the first flip member 20 by magnetic adsorption, and the second workpiece 220 is fixed to the second flip member 30 by shape fitting, that is, the surface shape of the second workpiece 220 matches the inner wall shape of the second mounting groove 31, and the workpiece is accurately positioned, which has the beneficial effect of high installation accuracy.

[0090] In one embodiment, a second spring 25 is further included, and the second spring 25 is connected to the first flip member 20 and the magnetic block 24. The magnetic block 24 is elastically connected to the first flip member 20 through the second spring 25. When the user installs the first workpiece 210, since the first workpiece 210 is magnetically adsorbed in the groove 241 of the magnetic block 24, there is a certain deviation during the installation process. Therefore, the second spring 25 is provided to allow the magnetic block 24 to move within a certain range to ensure that the first workpiece 210 can be matched with the second workpiece 220 during installation, so as to avoid affecting the installation accuracy or causing damage to the workpiece due to deviation when the first workpiece 210 is installed on the magnetic block 24.

[0091] In one embodiment, the first flip member 20 further includes a limit pin 26, which is connected to the first flip member 20 and abuts against the magnetic block 24. In this embodiment, the limit pin 26 is installed from the side of the first flip member 20. Figure 4 In the horizontal direction of the state shown in FIG. 1 , the magnetic block 24 is extended and a vertical force is applied to the magnetic block 24 to limit the displacement of the magnetic block 24 in the vertical direction. The magnetic block 24 is moved by the second spring 25 in the horizontal direction as shown in FIG. Figure 4 The vertical direction of the state shown is connected to the first flip member.

[0092] It should be explained that after the finished part is flipped and fixed on the electronic product 200, the first component 111 needs to be flipped to separate the finished part from the first flip part 20 and the second flip part 30. However, at this moment, the magnetic block 24 still magnetically attracts the first workpiece 210, and since the magnetic block 24 and the first flip part 20 are magnetically connected, there is still a hidden danger of damage to the second spring 25 due to the inability to immediately detach during flipping. Therefore, a limit pin 26 is provided to limit the vertical movement of the magnetic block 24, so that the magnetic block 24 can flip along with the first flip part 20 and quickly detach from the first workpiece 210, so that the present invention has the beneficial effect of convenient operation.

[0093] See also Figure 6 In one embodiment, an electric tool 60 is further included. The electric tool 60 faces the platform 10 and is used to fix the finished part to the electronic product 200 .

[0094] It should be explained that the electric tool 60 can be selected according to the connection method between the finished part and the electronic product 200. In this embodiment, the finished part and the electronic product 200 are connected by threads, so the electric tool 60 is selected as an electric screwdriver. When the finished part is turned over onto the electronic product 200, the electric screwdriver is moved to the corresponding position, the finished part is screwed onto the electronic product 200, and then the electric screwdriver is moved away so that the first component 111 is turned over to the other side. The provision of the electric tool 60 improves the installation efficiency of the finished part and further improves the overall production efficiency.

[0095] In one embodiment, the first member 111 is rotatably connected to the fixed base 11 via a latch 112. The provision of the latch 112 reduces the resistance of the first member 111 during rotation, making it more convenient for the user to operate and improving production efficiency.
