[0092] Referring to Figure 6 and Figure 7 , Figure 6 is a working process schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present application, Figure 7Figure 1 is a schematic view of the hand claw mechanism 4 of an embodiment of the present application turned 90°. In operation, the plate, profile, rigid strip block-shaped piece to be turned 5 is placed horizontally on the rack, and the bottom is supported to a certain space to facilitate the passage of the hand claw 42. The intelligent travelling crane or truss automatically carries the turning manipulator to the position of the piece to be turned 5. The hand claw spacing adjustment mechanism 1 automatically adjusts the spacing of the two hand claws 42 according to the length of the piece to be turned 5. The load bearing bolt 44 at the right end of the manipulator hand claw 42 is in the open state (see Figure 4 ). The manipulator as a whole moves downward and horizontally, and the lower part of the hand claw 42 passes through the bottom of the piece to be turned 5. The piece to be turned 5 enters the hand claw 42 in the width direction, the load bearing bolt 44 is closed, and the locking block 45 locks the head of the load bearing bolt 44 (see Figure 5 ). That is, the double hand claws 42 grasp the piece to be turned 5. The manipulator as a whole is lifted horizontally by the intelligent travelling crane or truss to hoist the piece to be turned 5 and automatically carry it to the position above the designated position. The hoisting mechanism 3 on the pair of carrying mechanisms 2 simultaneously releases the steel wire rope 35. The end of the hand claw 42 moves downward, and the hand claw 42 drives the piece to be turned 5 to start rotating around the load bearing rotary shaft 411 by an angle. In order to avoid the center deviation of the large angle rotation, the load bearing slide plate 221 at the top of the hand claw 42 moves horizontally to the right under the drive of the motor reducer 12, chain wheel and chain 14 (see Figure 6 ). Finally, the piece to be turned 5 can be turned 90° (see Figure 7 ). The piece to be turned 5 can also be turned to an arbitrary angle between 0° and 90°. The piece to be turned 5 can be placed on the fixed rack. The locking block driving member drives the locking block 45 to open, and the load bearing bolt driving member drives the load bearing bolt 44 to open. The manipulator as a whole moves away from the piece to be turned 5, and the carrying and turning are completed. The above process can also be performed in reverse to carry and turn the piece to be turned 5 back to the original position. If two sets of manipulators work together or a horizontal rotary device is provided above the manipulator, the automatic carrying and turning process of the piece to be turned 5 from 0° to 90° to 180° can be realized.

[0093] The present application can realize the automatic carrying and turning of the plate, profile, rigid strip block-shaped piece to be turned 5 (especially medium and large specifications). The structure is simple, convenient to operate, maintain and maintain, and realizes the modularization and serialization design of each structural unit.

[0094] Of course, the present application can also have other various embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various corresponding changes and modifications according to the present application without departing from the spirit and essence of the present application.
