Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tooling equipment, and in particular to a turning device. Background Art

[0002] The 90° flip platform is designed to improve the convenience of operation by reducing the overall height. To this end, the structure below the platform surface is often cleverly embedded in the pit. When the flip platform is in the initial state, one platform surface is flush with the ground, which is convenient for people to directly operate or place items; while the other platform surface is perpendicular to the ground and is not in use. When the flip platform starts to operate, the platform surface that was originally flush with the ground will gradually rotate to be perpendicular to the ground, and at the same time, the platform surface that was originally vertical will rotate to a flush state for the next round of operation.

[0003] However, during this flipping process, a key safety hazard emerges: when a platform surface rotates to be perpendicular to the ground, the corresponding pit will be exposed at its original position. This area is unobstructed during the flipping process. If personnel enter the area to work or pass through at this time, they are very likely to fall into the pit due to obstructed vision or misjudgment, thus causing serious safety accidents. In view of this, it is particularly important to optimize the design and operation process of the 90° flipping platform to eliminate the potential risk of falling caused by the exposure of the pit and ensure the safety of the operator. Summary of the invention

[0004] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a flipping device to address the potential safety hazard of personnel falling on existing flipping platforms.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be described more fully below with reference to the relevant drawings. The preferred embodiments of the present invention are given in the drawings. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the disclosure of the present invention more thoroughly understood.

[0022] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be a centered element.

[0023] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a flipping device, which includes a flipping assembly, a driving mechanism, a first covering mechanism 300 and a second covering mechanism 400 .

[0025] One end of the driving mechanism is connected to the pit 500, and the other end of the driving mechanism is connected to the flip assembly, so that the flip assembly can be stably placed above the opening of the pit 500. The flip assembly includes a first platform 110 and a second platform 120 connected to each other, both of which can be equipped with workpieces for processing or treatment. The first platform 110 and the second platform 120 intersect to form a certain angle to facilitate the flipping operation. In particular, they can be arranged perpendicular to each other to form a 90° flip platform structure.

[0026] In order to realize the safety covering function during the flipping process, the first platform 110 is connected to the first covering mechanism 300, and the second platform 120 is connected to the second covering mechanism 400. When the driving mechanism is started and drives the flipping assembly to rotate around a certain axis, it will simultaneously drive the first covering mechanism 300 or the second covering mechanism 400 connected to the flipping platform to move along the opening direction of the pit 500.

[0027] Specifically, when the flip device is in the first state, the first platform 110 covers a portion of the opening of the pit 500, and the second platform 120 stands above the opening of the pit 500 to support the workpiece. At this time, the second covering mechanism 400 will move to cover the remaining portion of the opening of the pit 500 to ensure that the entire pit opening is completely covered to avoid safety hazards. When the flip device is switched to the second state, the second platform 120 covers a portion of the opening of the pit 500, the first platform 110 stands above the opening of the pit 500, and the first covering mechanism 300 moves to cover the remaining portion of the opening of the pit 500 to achieve the same safety covering effect.

[0028] It can be seen from the above content that in the flipping device disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention, the connection relationship between the first covering mechanism 300 and the second covering mechanism 400 and the flipping assembly is cleverly designed to realize the function of automatically covering the pit opening during the flipping process, effectively reducing safety hazards. At the same time, the device has a simple structure and is easy to operate, which can greatly improve the safety and reliability of the flipping operation. In addition, if it is further used in conjunction with the use of a loose sand conveying assembly, it can also realize automatic cleaning and collection of loose sand during the flipping process, avoiding the tediousness and inefficiency of manual cleaning, and further improving the overall work efficiency and automation level.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present invention, a receiving mechanism 600 may be provided on the opposite side of at least one of the first covering mechanism 300 and the second covering mechanism 400, and the receiving mechanism 600 may be used to receive the loose sand leaked from the first covering mechanism 300 or the second covering mechanism 400. Specifically, a receiving mechanism 600 is provided on the opposite side (i.e., the inner side when the covering mechanism is in the position of covering the pit 500) of at least one of the first covering mechanism 300 and the second covering mechanism 400 (in actual applications, both are usually equipped to provide comprehensive safety protection). The position and size of the receiving mechanism 600 are carefully calculated to ensure that the loose sand carried on the workpiece can flow smoothly into it during the flipping process. In this way, both the loose sand on the hollow surface of the flipping platform and the loose sand that may be shaken off due to the flipping action can be effectively collected.

[0030] The design of the receiving mechanism 600 can be diversified, but the core function is to receive and temporarily store the loose sand so that it can be transferred to a designated location later by other means (such as vibration conveying, manual cleaning, etc.). The setting of the receiving mechanism 600 enables the sand scattered during the flipping process to be automatically collected, avoiding the tedious and inefficient manual cleaning. This not only improves work efficiency, but also reduces environmental pollution and safety hazards caused by the scattering of loose sand.

[0031] Further, the opposite side of the first covering mechanism 300 and the opposite side of the second covering mechanism 400 can be provided with a material receiving mechanism 600, and when in the first state or the second state, one of the material receiving mechanisms 600 can be in the pit 500. This arrangement not only enhances the functionality of the turning platform, but also significantly improves its operating efficiency and safety.

[0032] When the turning platform is in the first state or the second state, one of the receiving mechanisms 600 can be cleverly placed in the pit 500. This design allows the loose sand on the workpiece and the loose sand shaken off by the turning action to be effectively guided to the receiving mechanism during the turning process. In particular, when the covering mechanism covers the pit 500, the receiving mechanism 600 outside it can "catch" and store the loose sand to prevent it from scattering into the working area and causing environmental pollution or safety hazards.

[0033] The turning device disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention may also include a conveying mechanism 700, at least part of which may be located in the pit 500, the first end of the material receiving mechanism 600 may be connected to one end of the first covering mechanism 300 or the second covering mechanism 400, the second end of the material receiving mechanism 600 may extend along the length direction of the first covering mechanism 300 or the second covering mechanism 400, when in the first state or the second state, the second end of one of the material receiving mechanisms 600 may be located on the conveying mechanism 700, and the conveying mechanism 700 is used to receive the loose sand flowing out of the second end of the material receiving mechanism 600. At this time, the design of the pit 500 provides an installation space for the conveying mechanism 700, and also facilitates the collection and transportation of loose sand. When the turning device is in the first state or the second state, the second end of one of the material receiving mechanisms 600 will be located on the conveying mechanism 700. At this time, the conveying mechanism 700 is started, receives the loose sand flowing out of the second end of the material receiving mechanism 600, and transports it to the subsequent processing equipment or storage area.

[0034] The conveying mechanism 700 realizes the automatic collection and conveying of bulk materials such as loose sand. This design not only improves work efficiency, reduces the tediousness and cost of manual operation, but also ensures the continuity and stability of loose sand processing. In addition, the design of the conveying mechanism 700 being located in the pit 500 further optimizes the space utilization, making the entire turning device structure more compact and reasonable.

[0035] In an optional embodiment, a vibrating member 800 may be provided on the side of the material receiving mechanism 600 away from the first covering mechanism 300 or the second covering mechanism 400. The vibration of the vibrating member 800 can effectively promote the flow of loose sand on the surface of the material receiving mechanism 600, and prevent the material from being piled up, stuck or sticky during the material receiving process.

[0036] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first covering mechanism 300 or the second covering mechanism 400 may include a plurality of connected covering modules 340, and the driving mechanism drives the flip assembly to rotate to drive the plurality of covering modules 340 to unfold or stack. That is, the driving mechanism drives the flip assembly to rotate to drive the plurality of covering modules 340 to unfold and lay on the opening of the pit 500 to cover a part of the opening of the pit 500, or to stack on one side so that the first platform 110 or the second platform 120 covers a part of the opening of the pit 500. Specifically, when it is necessary to cover the opening of the pit 500, the driving mechanism drives the flip assembly to rotate so that the plurality of covering modules 340 are unfolded and tightly laid on the opening of the pit, effectively preventing external debris or personnel from mistakenly entering the pit, and ensuring the safety of the working area. When it is necessary to expose the processing area for operation, the covering module 340 can be driven to stack on one side, so that the first platform 110 or the second platform 120 can smoothly cover the other part of the opening of the pit, providing a spacious and barrier-free space for operation.

[0037] The flipping device disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention may also include a first connecting rod 910 and a second connecting rod 920, one end of the first connecting rod 910 may be rotatably connected to the first platform 110, the other end of the first connecting rod 910 may be rotatably connected to the first covering mechanism 300, one end of the second connecting rod 920 may be rotatably connected to the second platform 120, and the other end of the second connecting rod 920 may be rotatably connected to the second covering mechanism 400. The design of the first connecting rod 910 and the second connecting rod 920 makes the movement of the first covering mechanism 300 and the second covering mechanism 400 more flexible and accurate. By being rotatably connected to the first platform 110 and the second platform 120, the connecting rod mechanism can efficiently transmit the driving force, thereby easily realizing the unfolding and stacking operation of the covering mechanism.

[0038] At the same time, when it is necessary to cover the opening of the pit 500, the first connecting rod 910 and the second connecting rod 920 can quickly drive the covering mechanism to unfold, ensuring that the covering module 340 is tightly laid on the opening of the pit 500, effectively preventing external debris or personnel from accidentally entering, and ensuring the safety of the working area.

[0039] The flipping device disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention may also include a base 930, and the base 930 may be located in the pit 500, and one end of the driving mechanism may be connected to the base 930. At this time, by introducing the base 930, placing it in the pit 500, and connecting it to one end of the driving mechanism, the overall structure of the flipping device is significantly reinforced. As the supporting base of the device, the base 930 effectively disperses the stress and vibration generated by the device during operation, and improves the stability and reliability of the flipping device in a complex working environment. The addition of the base 930 enables the driving mechanism of the flipping device to be more firmly installed in the pit, thereby reducing the difficulty of operation and safety risks caused by shaking or displacement of the driving mechanism. The operator can more easily and accurately control the movement of the flipping device, realize the unfolding and stacking operations of the covering mechanism, and improve work efficiency and safety.

[0040] In an optional embodiment, the driving mechanism may include a first driving member 210 and a second driving member 220, the first driving member 210 may be connected to the first platform 110, and the second driving member 220 may be connected to the second platform 120. By configuring the first driving member 210 and the second driving member 220 for the flipping device, independent driving of the first platform 110 and the second platform 120 is achieved. This dual-drive design not only improves the overall driving efficiency of the flipping device, but also makes the movement of the two platforms more precise and controllable. Both synchronous flipping and asynchronous operation can be easily achieved.

[0041] In the embodiment of the present invention, a guide rail may be provided at the opening edge of the pit 500, and the first covering mechanism 300 or the second covering mechanism 400 may be slidably disposed on the guide rail. The design of the guide rail makes the movement of the covering mechanism smoother and more stable. The operator can easily slide the covering mechanism along the guide rail to quickly cover or uncover the pit. In addition, the guide rail provides a fixed moving path for the covering mechanism, avoiding possible shaking or deviation during operation. This not only ensures the safety of the operator, but also ensures that the covering mechanism can accurately cover the pit, preventing accidental falls or objects from falling into the pit, thereby improving the overall safety and stability.

[0042] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
