[0062] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a flipping device, which includes a first guide rail 10 and a second guide rail 20, wherein the second guide rail 20 is spaced apart from the first guide rail 10 to enclose a feed channel and a flipping channel that are connected in sequence, wherein the feed channel is located above the flipping channel, and an end of the feed channel away from the flipping channel forms a feed inlet 31, and an end of the flipping channel away from the feed channel forms a flipping outlet 32, and both the feed inlet 31 and the flipping outlet 32 ​​are located on one side of the connection between the feed channel and the flipping channel.

[0063] By using the flipping device provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the material 80 can be flipped over through the feed channel and the flipping channel surrounded by the second guide rail 20 and the first guide rail 10. Since the feed port 31 and the flipping outlet 32 ​​are both located on one side of the connection between the feed channel and the flipping channel, the material 80 put in from the feed port 31 can be flipped over under the guidance of the first guide rail 10 and the second guide rail 20 while passing through the feed channel and the flipping channel in sequence with the help of gravity. Furthermore, at least a portion of at least one of the first guide rail 10 and the second guide rail 20 is movably arranged in a direction close to or away from the other of the first guide rail 10 and the second guide rail 20. Such an arrangement makes the size of the feed channel and / or the turning channel adjustable. In this way, when materials 80 of different sizes are placed, the position of at least a portion of at least one of the first guide rail 10 and the second guide rail 20 relative to the other of the first guide rail 10 and the second guide rail 20 can be adjusted so that the size of the feed channel and / or the turning channel can be adapted to the material 80, thereby preventing the material 80 from being stuck in the feed channel or the turning channel, and also preventing the material 80 from colliding with the second guide rail 20 or the first guide rail 10 in the feed channel or the turning channel due to being too small.

One end of the guide rod 63 is connected to one of the mounting seat 62 and the pusher plate 61, and the other end of the guide rod 63 is inserted into the other of the mounting seat 62 and the pusher plate 61. The guide rod 63 is extended along the direction of movement of the material 80. The elastic member 64 is sleeved on the guide rod 63, one end of the elastic member 64 is connected to the pusher plate 61, and the other end of the elastic member 64 is connected to the mounting seat 62. With such a structural setting, the pusher surface can be configured to match the shape of the material 80 to avoid the pusher plate 61 from damaging the surface of the material 80 during the pushing process. At the same time, the elastic member 64 combined with the setting of the guide rod 63 can form a certain buffer for the pushing action, further avoiding damage to the material 80.

[0085] Specifically, in order to facilitate the cooperation with the guide rod 63, the elastic member 64 is a spring.

[0086] Specifically, the flipping device also includes a push cylinder 140. Specifically, the push cylinder 140 is a rodless cylinder. The push cylinder 140 is drivingly connected to the push assembly 60 so that the push assembly 60 is movable.

With such a structural arrangement, the pushed material 80 can be stopped at a preset position by the positioning assembly 70. At the same time, such an arrangement can be combined with the elastic member 64 of the pushing assembly 60. When the material 80 reaches the positioning assembly 70 and abuts against the positioning assembly 70, the guide rod 63 cooperates with the elastic member 64, and the product is fixed at the preset position through the reaction force of the elastic member 64, so that the positioning of the material 80 is more accurate.

[0090] In this embodiment, the positioning assembly 70 includes a positioning baffle 71, which has a positioning surface, which is configured to match the shape of the material 80, and is used to abut against the material 80. With such a structural configuration, the positioning surface can be used to abut against the material 80, and at the same time, the positioning surface is configured to match the shape of the material 80 to reduce damage to the surface of the material 80.

[0091] Specifically, the positioning surface of the positioning baffle 71 forms a V-shaped groove, and at least part of the groove wall of the V-shaped groove is used to abut against the material 80. When the material 80 is at the preset position, the periphery of the material 80 is tangent to the groove wall of the V-shaped groove.

[0092] Specifically, the positioning assembly 70 includes a positioning member 72, which is movably arranged and has an avoidance position and a positioning position. When the positioning member 72 is in the avoidance position, the positioning member 72 and the material 80 are arranged to avoid each other; when the positioning member 72 is in the positioning position, the positioning end of the positioning member 72 is inserted into the through hole of the material 80. With such a structural arrangement, the positioning member 72 can be further arranged to ensure accurate positioning of the material 80.

[0093] Specifically, in order to facilitate the installation of the positioning member 72, the positioning member 72 is arranged on the workbench 120 and is located on the side of the positioning baffle 71 close to the bearing structure 50. The positioning assembly 70 also includes a positioning mounting plate 73, which is arranged on the workbench 120. The positioning mounting plate 73 has a positioning mounting hole, and the positioning member 72 is arranged in the positioning mounting hole. The positioning end of the positioning member 72 protrudes from the positioning mounting plate 73. Specifically, the positioning member 72 is fixed to the positioning mounting plate 73 by screws.

[0094] Specifically, the positioning member 72 is a positioning pin. Specifically, the flipping device further includes a lifting cylinder 130, which is drivingly connected to the positioning member 72 to enable the positioning member 72 to move. Specifically, the lifting cylinder 130 is drivingly connected to the positioning mounting plate 73 to enable the positioning mounting plate 73 to drive the positioning member 72 to move.

[0095] Specifically, the working process of the flipping device of this embodiment is: first, the upper and lower clamps (equivalent to the adjustment structure 40) are adjusted according to the size of the material 80, and then the material 80 is clamped by the robot and placed on the load-bearing part. Due to the gravity of the material 80, the material 80 slowly slides along the guide steel bars (equivalent to the first guide rail 10 and the second guide rail 20) onto the load-bearing structure 50, and then the rodless cylinder is started to drive the pushing assembly 60 to push the material 80 toward the positioning assembly 70. Among them, when the pushing plate 61 of the pushing assembly 60 contacts the material 80, the rolling of the roller drives the material 80 to move toward the positioning assembly 70. When the material 80 reaches the positioning assembly 70, the guide rod 63 of the pushing assembly 60 cooperates with the elastic member 64. Through the reaction force of the elastic member 64, the material 80 is fixed above the positioning member 72. Then the lifting cylinder 130 is started, driving the positioning mounting plate 73 and the positioning pin to move. The positioning pin fits with the center part of the material 80, and the rodless cylinder is retracted, driving the pushing assembly 60 to return to the initial position to wait for the material 80 to be in place. Then the robot clamps the positioned material 80 to the next process, and the cycle is repeated in sequence.
