The staff can move the abutting plate along the guide through hole toward the side close to the horizontal plate by screwing the hexagon socket bolt, so as to clamp the two ends of the plate-shaped workpieces of different lengths. Under the elastic force of the second spring in the first lateral clamping member, the U-shaped clamping block on the lateral connecting plate clamps the plate-shaped workpiece. The right-angled trapezoidal abutting block, the U-shaped clamping block, and the abutting plate cooperate with each other to clamp and fix the plate-shaped workpiece to be processed, thereby ensuring the stability of the plate-shaped workpiece during processing.
[0021] 3. In the present application, after the plate-shaped workpiece completes the flipping operation, the control center of the five-axis machining equipment controls the external air source and causes the suction cup to release the plate-shaped workpiece, the second motor works and drives the active rod to rotate, so that the active pulley, the driven pulley, and the closed transmission belt all rotate, and the plate-shaped workpiece moves toward the side close to the initial processing state under the action of the closed transmission belt. After the plate-shaped workpiece acts on the inclined surface of the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block, the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block is driven to retract into the rectangular through hole until the side of the plate-shaped workpiece away from the horizontal plate abuts against the abutment plate, the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block in the first center clamping assembly is reset under the action of the first spring, and the side of the plate-shaped workpiece close to the horizontal plate is limited. At this time, the U-shaped clamping block in the first lateral clamping member is reset and the flipped plate workpiece is re-clamped, so that the horizontal five-axis compound machining center can perform processing operations on the reverse side of the plate-shaped workpiece.

When the first support plate 611 rotates to the vertical state, the horizontal section of the L-shaped connecting rod 216 slides to the top of the inner arc-shaped through hole 141, and the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block 214 is completely retracted into the rectangular through hole 6111 on the side away from the fixing plate 212.
[0041] A guide hole 6112 is provided through the first support plate 611 at a position away from the mounting seat 61. The tightening assembly 22 includes a first mounting plate 221 fixed at the bottom of the first support plate 611 near the guide hole 6112, a hexagon socket bolt 222 rotatably mounted on the first mounting plate 221, and an abutment plate 223 sleeved on the hexagon socket bolt 222 and threadedly connected to the hexagon socket bolt 222.

The head of the hexagon socket bolt 222 is located near the end of the first support plate 611, and the abutment plate 223 slides in conjunction with the guide hole 6112.
[0042] The first lateral clamping assembly 23 includes a first lateral clamping member 231 and a first guide rail 232. The first lateral clamping member 231 includes a lateral movable rod 2311 that is arranged horizontally and passes through the vertical plate 14, a lateral connecting plate 2312 that is fixed to one end of the lateral movable rod 2311 and is located between the two vertical plates 14, a U-shaped clamping block 2313 that is fixed to the side wall of the lateral connecting plate 2312 away from the side of the lateral movable rod 2311 and clamps the plate-shaped workpiece 7, a limiting rod 2314 that is fixed to the side wall of one side of the U-shaped clamping block 2313, and a fixing rod 2315 that is fixed to the first bracket. The U-shaped sliding sleeve 2315 on the plate 611 and slidingly engaged with the limit rod 2314, the lateral baffle 2316 mounted on the lateral movable rod 2311 and slidingly engaged with the lateral movable rod 2311, the second spring 2317 mounted on the lateral movable rod 2311 and located between the lateral connecting plate 2312 and the lateral baffle 2316, and the roller group 2318 arranged at the end of the lateral movable rod 2311 away from the lateral connecting plate 2312, the limit rod 2314 remains connected to the U-shaped sliding sleeve 2315 during the rotation of the first support plate 611.

The axis of the outer arc-shaped through hole 143 coincides with the axis of the hinge shaft between the first support plate 611 and the mounting seat 61. The side wall of the lateral baffle 2316 away from the side of the lateral connecting plate 2312 is pressed against the side wall of the vertical plate 14 close to the side connecting plate 2312. The two ends of the second spring 2317 are pressed against the lateral connecting plate 2312 and the lateral baffle 2316 respectively. The extension direction of the first guide rail 232 is parallel to the extension direction of the outer arc-shaped through hole 143. One side of the first guide rail 232 is in contact with the vertical plate 1 4 is fixed to the side wall of the side away from the other vertical plate 14. Two first guide rails 232 are provided and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the outer arc-shaped through hole 143, and the first guide rails 232 are arranged adjacent to the outer arc-shaped through hole 143. The two rollers of the roller assembly 2318 are respectively pressed against the side of the two first guide rails 232 away from the vertical plate 14. The end of the first guide rail 232 away from the processing platform 1 is provided with a thickened portion 2321. When the roller assembly 2318 moves to the thickened portion 2321, the U-shaped clamping block 2313 is horizontally pulled toward the side away from the center of the processing platform 1, thereby releasing the plate-shaped workpiece 7 to be turned over.When processing the front of the plate-shaped workpiece 7, the bottom surface of the plate-shaped workpiece 7 abuts against the upper surface of the first support plate 611, and the side wall of one side of the right-angled trapezoidal abutting block 214 in the first center clamping assembly 21 abuts against one side of the plate-shaped workpiece 7. The staff can make the abutting plate 223 move along the guide through hole 6112 toward the side close to the cross plate 6 by screwing the hexagon socket bolt 222, so as to clamp the two ends of the plate-shaped workpiece 7 of different lengths. Under the elastic force of the second spring 2317 in the first lateral clamping member 231, the U-shaped clamping block 2313 on the lateral connecting plate 2312 clamps the plate-shaped workpiece 7. The right-angled trapezoidal abutting block 214, the U-shaped clamping block 2313, and the abutting plate 223 cooperate with each other to clamp and fix the plate-shaped workpiece 7 to be processed, thereby ensuring the stability of the plate-shaped workpiece 7 during processing.
[0043] The second clamping mechanism 3 is arranged on the second support plate 612 and is used to clamp the plate-like workpiece 7 after flipping over. The second clamping mechanism 3 is provided with two groups and is symmetrically distributed about the base plate 12. Each group of the second clamping mechanism 3 includes a second central clamping component 31, an adsorption component 32 and a second lateral clamping component 33. The structure and setting method of the second central clamping component 31 are exactly the same as the structure and setting method of the first central clamping component 21. The second central clamping component 31 and the first central clamping component 21 are symmetrically arranged about the cross plate 6. When the second support plate 612 is in a horizontal state, the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block 214 in the second central clamping component 31 is completely retracted into the rectangular through hole 6111 away from the side of the fixed plate 212. When the second support plate 612 is in a vertical state, the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block 214 in the second central clamping component 31 is away from the side of the fixed plate 212 and passes through the rectangular through hole 6111 and catches the plate-like workpiece 7 during the flipping process. After the front surface of the plate-shaped workpiece 7 is processed and the back surface needs to be processed, the driving mechanism 4 drives the first support plate 611 and the second support plate 612 to rotate around their respective mounting seats 61 until the first support plate 611 and the second support plate 612 are rotated to a vertical state. During this process, the horizontal section of the L-shaped connecting rod 216 in the first center clamping assembly 21 gradually slides from the vertical connecting hole 142 to the top of the inner arc-shaped through hole 141 on one side, and the first spring 215 in the first center clamping assembly 21 gradually contracts, and the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block 21 in the first center clamping assembly 21 is pressed. The side away from the fixed plate 212 gradually shrinks into the rectangular through hole 6111 (on the first supporting plate 611). At the same time, the horizontal section of the L-shaped connecting rod 216 in the second central clamping assembly 31 gradually moves to the top of the inner arc-shaped through hole 141 on the other side. The first spring 215 in the second central clamping assembly 31 gradually extends. The right-angled trapezoidal abutting block 214 in the second central clamping assembly 31 gradually extends from the rectangular through hole 6111 (on the second supporting plate 612) on the side away from the fixed plate 212, thereby supporting the bottom of the plate-like workpiece 7 that has been flipped to a vertical state.
[0044] A mounting through hole 6121 is provided through the second support plate 612 at a position away from the mounting seat 61. The adsorption assembly 32 is used to suck the flipped plate-like workpiece 7 away from the side of the horizontal plate 6 to enhance the stability of the plate-like workpiece 7. The adsorption assembly 32 includes a second mounting plate 321 fixed in the mounting through hole 6121 and a suction cup 322 fixed on the second mounting plate 321. The suction cup 322 adsorbs the plate-like workpiece 7 after the second support plate 612 is adjusted to a vertical state. The air supply pipe of the suction cup 322 passes through the second mounting plate 321 and is connected to an external air source. When the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block 214 in the second center clamping assembly 31 gradually extends out from the rectangular through hole 6111 (on the second support plate 612) away from the side of the fixed plate 212 and supports the bottom of the plate-like workpiece 7 flipped to a vertical state, the control center of the five-axis machining equipment controls the external air source so that the air pressure at the suction cup 322 is negative and sucks the flipped plate-like workpiece 7, thereby enhancing the stability of the flipped workpiece in the subsequent process of converting it to a horizontal state.
[0045] The second lateral clamping assembly 33 includes a second lateral clamping member 331 and a second guide rail 332. The structure and setting method of the second lateral clamping member 331 are exactly the same as the structure and setting method of the first lateral clamping member 231. The diameter of the outer arc-shaped through hole 143 for sliding engagement of the lateral movable rod 2311 in the second lateral clamping member 331 is smaller than the diameter of the outer arc-shaped through hole 143 for sliding engagement of the lateral movable rod 2311 in the first lateral clamping member 231.
[0046] The second guide rail 332 is located on the side of the vertical plate 14 away from the horizontal plate 6, and the second guide rail 332 on each vertical plate 14 is provided with two and symmetrically distributed on both sides of the outer arc-shaped through hole 143 corresponding to the second lateral clamping member 331. Each second guide rail 332 includes an L-shaped rod body 3321 fixed on the vertical plate 14, an arc-shaped overhead rod 3322 fixed to the end of the L-shaped rod body 3321 away from the vertical plate 14, and an arc-shaped guiding rod 3323 movably connected to the end of the arc-shaped overhead rod 3322 close to the processing platform 1 (the extension directions of the arc-shaped guiding rod 3323 and the arc-shaped overhead rod 3322 are both arc-shaped, and the axis of the arc-shaped guiding rod 3323 and the axis of the arc-shaped overhead rod 3322 are both coincident with the axis of the hinge axis between the second support plate 612 and the mounting seat 61). The arc guide rod 3323 and the arc overhead rod 3322 are connected by an elastic connection component 8, and the end of the arc guide rod 3323 away from the arc overhead rod 3322 is kept in contact with the side wall of the vertical plate 14 under the action of the elastic connection component 8. The arc guide rod 3323 allows the roller group 2318 in the second lateral clamping member 331 to move from the vertical plate 14 to the arc overhead rod 3322 during the process of the second support plate 612 being adjusted to a vertical state. After the plate-like workpiece 7 is flipped to a vertical state, the roller group 2318 in the second lateral clamping member 331 slides down from the end of the arc overhead rod 3322 away from the arc guide rod 3323, and then presses against the side wall of the vertical plate 14 again, and rolls from between the arc overhead rod 3322 and the vertical plate 14 to the initial position.
[0047] The elastic connecting assembly 8 includes a connecting seat 81 fixed to one end of the arc-shaped overhead rod 3322 close to the top of the processing platform 1, a connecting block 82 fixed to the end of the arc-shaped guide rod 3323 and hinged to the connecting seat 81, and a torsion spring 83 sleeved on the hinge shaft between the connecting seat 81 and the connecting block 82, and the two ends of the torsion spring 83 are respectively fixed to the connecting seat 81 and the connecting block 82.
[0048] The driving mechanism 4 is used to drive the first support plate 611 and the second support plate 612 to rotate around their respective mounting seats 61 to a vertical state and complete the flipping operation of the plate-shaped workpiece 7. The driving mechanism 4 includes a first motor 41 fixed to the top of the processing platform 1, a first fixed block 42 fixed to the top of the processing platform 1, a bidirectional threaded rod 43 fixed to the output shaft end of the first motor 41 and rotatably connected to the first fixed block 42, a first movable plate 44 sleeved on the bidirectional threaded rod 43 and threadedly connected to the bidirectional threaded rod 43, a first special-shaped rod 45 hinged to the top of the first movable plate 44, a second movable plate 46 sleeved on the bidirectional threaded rod 43 and threadedly connected to the bidirectional threaded rod 43, and a second special-shaped rod 45 hinged to the top of the first movable plate 44. The second special-shaped rod 47 is hinged on the top of the plate 46, and the bidirectional threaded rod 43 is provided with two sections of external threads with equal pitch, opposite rotation direction and symmetrically arranged about the cross plate 6 (the second movable plate 46 and the first movable plate 44 are symmetrically distributed on the two sections of external threads of the bidirectional threaded rod 43), the bottom surface of the first movable plate 44 and the bottom surface of the second movable plate 46 are both in contact with the upper surface of the bottom plate 12, the first special-shaped rod 45 is staggered with the first center clamping assembly 21, and the end of the first special-shaped rod 45 away from the first movable plate 44 is hinged to the bottom of the first support plate 611, the second special-shaped rod 47 is staggered with the second center clamping assembly 31, and the end of the second special-shaped rod 47 away from the second movable plate 46 is hinged to the bottom of the second support plate 612. When performing the flipping operation of the plate-shaped workpiece 7, the control center of the five-axis machining equipment controls the first motor 41 to work, thereby driving the bidirectional threaded rod 43 to rotate. Since the bottom surface of the first movable plate 44 and the bottom surface of the second movable plate 46 are both in contact with the upper surface of the base plate 12, the first movable plate 44 and the second movable plate 46 are both threadedly connected to the bidirectional threaded rod 43, so that the first movable plate 44 and the second movable plate 46 are close to each other. The first support plate 611 is pushed by the first special-shaped rod 45 to rotate around the hinge axis between the first support plate 611 and one of the mounting seats 61, and the second support plate 612 is in the second special-shaped Under the action of rod 47, the second support plate 612 is pushed to rotate around the hinge axis between the second support plate 612 and another mounting seat 61. During this process, under the joint action of the limit rod 2314 and the U-shaped sleeve 2315, the U-shaped clamping block 2313, the lateral connecting plate 2312, the lateral movable rod 2311, and the roller group 2318 in the first lateral clamping member 231 gradually move upward along the circular arc extension direction of the first guide rail 232, and the roller group 2318 in the second lateral clamping member 331 rolls along the arc guide rod 3323 to the arc overhead rod 3322 and continues to roll along the arc overhead rod 3322.When the first support plate 611 and the second support plate 612 are both in a vertical state, the roller group 2318 in the first lateral clamping member 231 moves to the position of the thickened portion 2321, and the roller group 2318 in the first lateral clamping member 231 pulls the lateral connecting plate 2312 horizontally through the lateral movable rod 2311, so that the U-shaped clamping block 2313 in the first lateral clamping member 231 is separated from the plate-like workpiece 7. At the same time, the roller group 2318 in the second lateral clamping member 331 slides off the end of the arc-shaped overhead rod 3322 away from the arc-shaped guide rod 3323, and the roller group 2318 in the second lateral clamping member 331 pushes the lateral connecting plate 2312 through the lateral movable rod 2311, so that the U-shaped clamping block 2313 in the second lateral clamping member 331 clamps the flipped plate-like workpiece 7, further enhancing the stability of the flipped plate-like workpiece 7 when it is placed in a horizontal state. Subsequently, the control center of the five-axis machining equipment controls the first motor 41 to work in the reverse direction, so that the first movable plate 44 and the second movable plate 46 are reset, and the flipped plate-like workpiece 7 is gradually flattened. During this process, the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block 214 in the second center clamping assembly 31 maintains the state of abutting the plate-like workpiece 7. When the horizontal section of the L-shaped connecting rod 216 in the second center clamping assembly 31 slides into the vertical connecting hole 142, the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block 214 in the second center clamping assembly 31 will be retracted into the rectangular through hole 6111, so that the control assembly 5 can control the flipped plate-like workpiece 7 to return to the processing station. The limit rod 2314 and the U-shaped sliding sleeve 2315 slide together to ensure the stability of the U-shaped clamping block 2313 during use, so that the U-shaped clamping block 2313 in the second lateral clamping member 331 can smoothly clamp the flipped plate-like workpiece 7.
[0049] The control component 5 is arranged on the base plate 12 and is used to transport the turned-over plate-shaped workpiece 7 back to the processing station. The control component 5 includes a second fixed block 51 fixed to the top of the base plate 12. The second fixed blocks 51 are provided with four and are distributed in a rectangular array about the base plate 12. The control component 5 also includes an active rod 52 rotatably mounted between the two second fixed blocks 51 on one side of the base plate 12, a driven rod 53 rotatably mounted between the two second fixed blocks 51 on the other side of the base plate 12, a driving pulley 54 fixedly mounted on the active rod 52, a driven pulley 55 fixedly mounted on the driven rod 53, a closed transmission belt 56 for connecting the driving pulley 54 and the driven pulley 55, and a second motor 57 fixed on the second fixed block 51 and used to drive the active rod 52 to rotate. The driving pulley 54, the driven pulley 55 and the closed transmission belt 56 are each provided with two groups and are symmetrically arranged. The two closed transmission belts 56 are simultaneously located between the two first special-shaped rods 45 and the two second special-shaped rods 47. After the plate-like workpiece 7 is turned over, the control center of the five-axis machining equipment controls the external air source and causes the suction cup 322 to release the plate-like workpiece 7. The second motor 57 works and drives the active rod 52 to rotate, so that the active pulley 54, the driven pulley 55, and the closed transmission belt 56 all rotate. Under the action of the closed transmission belt 56, the plate-like workpiece 7 moves toward the side close to the initial processing state. After the plate-like workpiece 7 acts on the inclined surface of the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block 214, the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block 214 is driven to re-turn. Retracted into the rectangular through hole 6111 until the plate-like workpiece 7 abuts against the abutment plate 223 on the side away from the transverse plate 6, the right-angled trapezoidal abutment block 214 in the first center clamping assembly 21 is reset under the action of the first spring 215, and limits the side of the plate-like workpiece 7 close to the transverse plate 6. At this time, the U-shaped clamping block 2313 in the first lateral clamping member 231 is reset and re-clamps the turned-over plate-like workpiece 7, so that the horizontal five-axis compound machining center can perform processing operations on the back of the plate-like workpiece 7.
