[0055] Reference Figures 1 to 5 This invention proposes a coating material feeding device, including a base 1 and a feeding mechanism 2, a first conveying mechanism 3, a flipping mechanism 4, and a feeding mechanism 5 disposed on the base 1. The feeding mechanism 2, the flipping mechanism 4, and the feeding mechanism 5 are arranged sequentially in a horizontal direction. The first conveying mechanism 3 is positioned above the feeding mechanism 2 and the flipping mechanism 4.

[0056] The feeding mechanism 2 is used to carry and store the coated workpieces;

[0057] The flipping mechanism 4 includes a fixture assembly 41 and a flipping drive assembly 42. The fixture assembly 41 is rotatably connected to the base 1 and is located on the upper side of at least part of the unloading mechanism 5. The fixture assembly 41 has a first receiving portion 400 for carrying the coated workpiece. The flipping drive assembly 42 is drively connected to the fixture assembly 41 and drives the fixture assembly 41 to flip around the horizontal direction so that the first receiving portion 400 flips to the first conveying mechanism 3 or flips to the unloading mechanism 5.

[0058] The first conveying mechanism 3 is used to transfer the coated workpiece carried by the feeding mechanism 2 to the first receiving part 400;

[0059] The unloading mechanism 5 has at least a second receiving portion 500 for receiving and accommodating the coated workpiece and a second conveying mechanism 51 for unloading the coated workpiece from the second receiving portion 500.

[0060] In this embodiment, the coating unloading equipment of this application integrates the loading mechanism 2, the first conveying mechanism 3, the flipping mechanism 4, and the unloading mechanism 5 to achieve automated transfer, flipping, and unloading of the coated workpiece. This application employs the loading mechanism 2, the flipping mechanism 4, and the unloading mechanism 5 arranged sequentially in a horizontal direction, and achieves flexible transfer of the coated workpiece through the first conveying mechanism 3, which spans above the loading mechanism 2 and the flipping mechanism 4. The core of the flipping mechanism 4 lies in its fixture assembly 41 and flipping drive assembly 42. The fixture assembly 41 is rotatably connected to the base 1 and has a first receiving portion 400 for carrying the coated workpiece. The flipping drive assembly 42 can drive the fixture assembly 41 to flip horizontally, causing the first receiving portion 400 to switch positions between the first conveying mechanism 3 and the unloading mechanism 5, thus enabling the coated workpiece to be transferred.

[0061] Specifically, the working process of the coating blanking equipment of this application can be briefly described as follows:

[0062] First, the coated workpiece is initially stored in the loading mechanism 2. The coated workpiece can be transferred from the coating equipment to the loading mechanism 2, or it can be placed in the loading mechanism 2 manually. The first conveying mechanism 3 takes the coated workpiece from the loading mechanism 2 and transfers it to the first receiving portion 400 on the fixture assembly 41 of the flipping mechanism 4. At this time, the first receiving portion 400 faces the first conveying mechanism 3 to facilitate the loading of the workpiece.

[0063] The flip drive assembly 42 is activated, driving the fixture assembly 41 to flip horizontally, causing the first receiving portion 400 carrying the coated workpiece to flip from a position facing the first conveying mechanism 3 to a position facing the unloading mechanism 5. This flipping action ensures that the workpiece can be smoothly transferred to the unloading stage.

[0064] After the flipping is completed, the coated workpiece is transferred from the first receiving part 400 to the second receiving part 500 of the unloading mechanism 5. The second conveying mechanism 51 then removes the coated workpiece from the second receiving part 500 and completes the unloading operation, thereby ending a single coated workpiece flipping process.

[0065] In summary, this application achieves the following effects by setting up a coating blanking device with the above-described structure:

[0066] Efficiency Improvement: The automated processes of the equipment replace traditional manual operations, reducing the time and error of human intervention, making the process from material storage to unloading more efficient.

[0067] Enhanced flexibility: The flipping mechanism 4 can achieve bidirectional flipping of the first accommodating part 400, replacing the manual flipping process of the coated workpiece.

[0068] Space optimization: The horizontally arranged loading mechanism 2, flipping mechanism 4 and unloading mechanism 5, combined with the first conveying mechanism 3 across the equipment, optimize the use of equipment space and the workpiece transfer path, ensuring the smoothness of the production process.

[0069] Smooth production: The collaborative work of various mechanisms simplifies the complexity of workpiece transfer and improves the stability and continuity of the overall production line.

[0070] In summary, the coating blanking equipment in this embodiment achieves an efficient, flexible, and stable coating workpiece blanking process through reasonable functional module design and automated operation.

[0071] Please continue to refer to Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments, the fixture assembly 41 proposed in this application includes a workpiece positioning block 411, a fixture base plate 412, and a rotating shaft 413. The workpiece positioning block 411, the fixture base plate 412, and the rotating shaft 413 are connected in sequence. A first receiving portion 400 is formed on the side of the workpiece positioning block 411 facing away from the fixture base plate 412. The fixture base plate 412 is fixedly connected to the middle part of the rotating shaft 413. The two ends of the rotating shaft 413 are rotatably connected to the machine base 1.

[0072] In this embodiment, the fixture assembly 41 is the core component of the flipping mechanism 4, consisting of a workpiece positioning block 411, a fixture base plate 412, and a rotating shaft 413. The workpiece positioning block 411 is responsible for supporting and positioning the coated workpiece. The workpiece positioning block 411 ensures the workpiece remains stable during the flipping process through its structural design. For example, the first accommodating portion 400 can be composed of multiple circumferentially spaced blocks, with the blocks enclosing a space capable of supporting the coated workpiece.

[0073] The fixture base plate 412 serves as an intermediate connecting component, sequentially connecting the workpiece positioning block 411 and the rotating shaft 413, and providing support for the workpiece positioning block 411.

[0074] The rotating shaft 413, as the core of the rotational motion, is fixedly connected to the middle of the fixture base plate 412, and its two ends are rotatably connected to the machine base 1. The rotating shaft 413 is driven by an external drive (i.e., the flip drive assembly 42) to rotate around the horizontal direction, thereby driving the entire fixture assembly 41 to flip.

[0075] The fixture assembly 41 is rotatably connected to the machine base 1 via a rotating shaft 413, forming a rotatable whole. When the flipping drive assembly 42 is activated, the rotating shaft 413 is rotated under force, causing the fixture base plate 412 fixed thereon and the workpiece positioning block 411 connected to the fixture base plate 412 to flip synchronously. Since the first receiving part 400 is constructed on one side of the workpiece positioning block 411, its orientation changes with the flipping action, thereby realizing the switching from the initial position (e.g., facing the first conveying mechanism 3) to the target position (e.g., facing the unloading mechanism 5).

[0076] The workpiece positioning block 411 ensures that the coated workpiece remains stable within the first receiving portion 400, preventing displacement due to gravity or centrifugal force during the flipping process. The fixture base plate 412, through a fixed connection to the rotating shaft 413, evenly transmits the power of the flipping drive assembly 42 to the workpiece positioning block 411, ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the flipping action.

[0077] Based on the above-described working principle, the fixture assembly 41 in this embodiment produces the following effects in the coating blanking equipment:

[0078] The workpiece positioning block 411 constructs the first receiving part 400, providing precise positioning and a stable support platform for the coated workpiece. Its design effectively fixes the workpiece, ensuring that its position remains unchanged during flipping, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of workpiece transfer.

[0079] In summary, the working principle of the fixture assembly 41 proposed in this embodiment is to achieve stable bearing and precise flipping of the coated workpiece through the layered structure of the workpiece positioning block 411, the fixture base plate 412, and the rotating shaft 413, and the rotational movement of the rotating shaft 413. Its effectiveness is reflected in the accuracy of workpiece positioning, the high efficiency and smoothness of the flipping action, the compact and stable structure, and the flexibility of equipment operation. These characteristics make the fixture assembly 41 an indispensable key component in coating blanking equipment, providing a solid technical guarantee for an automated and efficient blanking process.

[0080] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the workpiece positioning block 411 proposed in this application has a through hole 4110, which is located in the middle of the first receiving portion 400; the fixture base plate 412 has a first air hole; the coating blanking equipment further includes:

[0081] The adsorption element 6 is disposed on the base plate 412 of the fixture and located in the through hole 4110. The adsorption element 6 is connected to the first air hole and the second air hole, so as to introduce negative pressure gas to adsorb the coated workpiece in the first accommodating part 400.

[0082] In this embodiment, the adsorption element 6 is an important functional component of the fixture assembly 41 in the coating blanking equipment. Its working principle is based on negative pressure adsorption technology. It is installed in conjunction with the workpiece positioning block 411 and the fixture base plate 412 to fix the coating workpiece.

[0083] When the fixture assembly 41 flips (driven by the flipping drive assembly 42 to rotate the shaft 413), the adsorption member 6 uses negative pressure to adsorb and fix the workpiece, preventing the workpiece from shifting or falling off due to gravity, centrifugal force, or the flipping action. The adsorption force continues to act until the workpiece needs to be transferred to the unloading mechanism 5 or the first conveying mechanism 3.

[0084] Based on the above-described working principle, the adsorption element 6 produces the following effects in the coating feeding equipment of this embodiment:

[0085] The adsorption element 6 firmly fixes the coated workpiece within the first receiving portion 400 using negative pressure adsorption, effectively preventing the workpiece from shifting or falling during the flipping process. This stability is particularly important for thin, lightweight, or complex-shaped coated workpieces, ensuring the accuracy of the workpiece's position.

[0086] When the fixture assembly 41 rotates horizontally, the adsorption effect of the adsorption member 6 ensures a tight fit between the workpiece and the first receiving part 400, preventing the workpiece from detaching due to changes in the rotation angle or acceleration. This improves the reliability and safety of the rotation operation.

[0087] The negative pressure adsorption method of adsorption component 6 is suitable for coating workpieces of various sizes, shapes, and materials, without the need for complex mechanical clamping structures. By adjusting the negative pressure intensity or the design of adsorption component 6 (such as the shape of the suction cup), different process requirements can be met, improving the versatility and flexibility of the equipment.

[0088] In summary, in this embodiment, the working principle of the adsorption element 6 is to use negative pressure gas connected to the first air hole of the fixture base plate 412 to form an adsorption force at the through hole 4110 of the workpiece positioning block 411, thereby fixing the coated workpiece to the first receiving part 400. Its effects include the stability of workpiece fixation, the reliability of the flipping process, the smoothness of workpiece transfer, and the flexibility of process adaptation. These characteristics make the adsorption element 6 an important supplement to the fixture assembly 41, significantly improving the efficiency and accuracy of the coating blanking equipment in processing coated workpieces, and providing key support for automated production.

[0089] Please continue to refer to Figure 3In some embodiments, the coating blanking device proposed in this application also includes a mounting base 7. The mounting base 7 is provided with a first connecting portion 701 on the side facing the fixture assembly. The first connecting portion 701 is open to accommodate the fixture assembly 41.

[0090] The two side walls of the opening are provided with bearing components 8 for rotatably connecting with the two ends of the rotating shaft 413, and the rotating shaft 413 passes through the bearing components 8.

[0091] In this embodiment, the first connecting part 701 with an opening on the mounting base 7 provides a receiving space for the jig assembly 41. The opening and insertion design allows the jig assembly 41 (including the workpiece positioning block 411, the jig base plate 412 and the rotating shaft 413) to be received entirely in the opening, ensuring that the jig assembly 41 is stably supported during the flipping process.

[0092] Bearing components 8 are disposed on two opposite sidewalls of the opening of the first connecting portion 701 and are rotatably connected to both ends of the rotating shaft 413. The bearing components 8 (which may be ball bearings, sliding bearings, or other bushings) serve as support points for the rotating shaft 413, reducing frictional resistance during rotation. The mounting base 7 fixes the fixture assembly 41 through the first connecting portion 701, and the rotating shaft 413 receives the driving force of the flipping drive assembly 42 with the support of the bearing components 8. When the flipping drive assembly 42 is activated, the rotating shaft 413 rotates smoothly through the bearing components 8, causing the fixture assembly 41 to flip as a whole, thereby changing the orientation of the first receiving portion 400 (facing the first conveying mechanism 3 or the unloading mechanism 5).

[0093] Based on the above principles, the design of the mounting base 7, the first connecting part 701, and the bearing component 8 in this application embodiment brings the following effects:

[0094] The bearing 8 provides low-friction rotational support for the shaft 413, reducing resistance and wear during the rotation process. This design ensures that the jig assembly 41 can rotate smoothly and accurately in the horizontal direction, avoiding vibration or offset caused by friction or instability, thereby improving the accuracy of the orientation switching of the first receiving portion 400.

[0095] The rotatable connection between the bearing component 8 and the rotating shaft 413 also facilitates installation and disassembly. This modular design simplifies the equipment assembly process. At the same time, when maintaining or replacing the fixture component 41, the mounting base 7 and the rotating shaft 413 can be quickly separated, improving the ease of use of the equipment.

[0096] Please continue to refer to Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments, the mounting base 7 proposed in this application has a second connecting portion 702 on the side opposite to the first connecting portion 701; the coating material feeding device further includes:

[0097] Mounting bracket 9 is provided on base 1 and is used to slide with second connecting part 702;

[0098] The rack 10 is mounted on the mounting bracket 9, and one end of the shaft 413 adjacent to the rack 10 extends out of the mounting base 7.

[0099] Driven gear 11 is sleeved on one end of the rotating shaft 413 that extends out of the mounting base 7, and driven gear 11 can mesh with rack 10;

[0100] The flip drive assembly 42 is used to drive the mounting base 7 to slide in the vertical direction. The driven gear 11 meshes with the rack 10 and rotates relative to the rack 10, thereby driving the rotating shaft 413 to rotate.

[0101] In this embodiment, a second connecting part 702 is provided on the side of the mounting base 7 facing away from the first connecting part 701. The second connecting part 702 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 9, allowing the mounting base 7 to move vertically on the mounting frame 9. The mounting frame 9 is fixed to the base 1, serving as a support platform for the rack 10 and providing a sliding track for the mounting base 7. The rack 10 is fixed to the mounting frame 9, and one end of the rotating shaft 413 extends out of the mounting base 7 and is fitted with a driven gear 11. The driven gear 11 and the rack 10 form a meshing transmission pair. The flip drive assembly 42 serves as a power source to drive the mounting base 7 to slide vertically, causing the driven gear 11 to mesh and rotate with the rack 10, ultimately driving the rotating shaft 413 to rotate.

[0102] The flipping drive assembly 42 (possibly a cylinder, motor, etc.) pushes the mounting base 7 to slide vertically up and down. Since the rotating shaft 413 is fixed to the mounting base 7 and has a driven gear 11 attached to one end, the driven gear 11 moves along the rack 10 when the mounting base 7 slides. The driven gear 11 meshes with the rack 10, and under the vertical movement of the mounting base 7, the driven gear 11 is forced to rotate relative to the rack 10. This rotation is transmitted to the fixture assembly 41 through the rotating shaft 413, driving the fixture assembly 41 to flip horizontally. The rotation of the rotating shaft 413 directly drives the fixture assembly 41 (including the first receiving part 400) to flip, causing the orientation of the first receiving part 400 to switch from facing the first conveying mechanism 3 to facing the unloading mechanism 5, or vice versa. This flipping motion is transformed from the linear sliding of the mounting base 7 into the rotational motion of the rotating shaft 413, demonstrating the high efficiency of the gear-rack 10 transmission.

[0103] In the initial state, the coated workpiece is placed in the first receiving part 400 by the first conveying mechanism 3, the mounting base 7 is in the initial position (e.g., one end of the rack 10), and the driven gear 11 is engaged with the rack 10 but has not yet rotated.

[0104] Then, the flip drive assembly 42 is activated, pushing the mounting base 7 to slide vertically (e.g., up or down) along the second connection 702 on the mounting bracket 9. The rotating shaft 413 moves with the mounting base 7, and the driven gear 11 rolls along the tooth surface of the rack 10.

[0105] Immediately afterwards, the driven gear 11 rotates under force during its engagement with the rack 10, causing the rotating shaft 413 mounted on it to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the rotating shaft 413 causes the fixture assembly 41 to flip around the horizontal direction, changing the orientation of the first receiving part 400.

[0106] Finally, the mounting base 7 slides to a predetermined position (e.g., the other end of the rack 10), the driven gear 11 stops rotating, and the fixture assembly 41 completes its flipping. The first receiving portion 400 is adjusted to the target position (e.g., facing the unloading mechanism 5), and the workpiece is ready to be transferred to the second receiving portion 500. After the flipping is completed, the coated workpiece in the first receiving portion 400 is handed over to the second receiving portion 500 of the docking unloading mechanism 5, and the coated workpiece enters the second receiving portion 500 to complete the unloading operation.

[0107] By designing the above mechanism, this embodiment can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0108] The gear-rack transmission mechanism 10 precisely converts the linear sliding of the mounting base 7 into the rotational motion of the rotating shaft 413. Through the design of the tooth pitch of the rack 10 and the number of teeth of the driven gear 11, the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 413 can be precisely controlled, thereby achieving accurate adjustment of the orientation of the first receiving portion 400. This precision ensures accurate positioning of the workpiece during the flipping process.

[0109] This design seamlessly integrates the flipping motion with the vertical sliding of the mounting base 7, facilitating integration with automated control systems (such as controlling the stroke of the flipping drive assembly 42 via sensors). This supports a fully automated process for coated workpieces from storage to unloading, improving the overall efficiency of the production line.

[0110] In summary, this embodiment constructs a flipping mechanism based on gear-rack 10 transmission through the coordinated design of the second connecting part 702 of the mounting base 7, the mounting bracket 9, the rack 10, and the driven gear 11. Its working principle is to convert the linear driving force of the flipping drive assembly 42 into the rotational motion of the rotating shaft 413, driving the fixture assembly 41 to flip. The process is clear and efficient, from the sliding of the mounting base 7 to the rotation of the rotating shaft 413 and then to the workpiece unloading. The effects are reflected in the accuracy of flipping, the efficiency of power transmission, the compactness and stability of the structure, the reliability of operation, and the automation support capability. This design significantly improves the performance of the coating unloading equipment in workpiece flipping and transfer, providing reliable technical support for automated production.

[0111] Please continue to refer to Figures 2 to 4In some embodiments, the coating blanking equipment proposed in this application further includes:

[0112] One end of the rocker arm 12 is connected to the end of the rotating shaft 413 that extends out of the mounting base 7 and is located outside the driven gear 11;

[0113] Roller 13 is located at the other end of the swing arm 12;

[0114] The first limiting member 14 is provided on the mounting bracket 9 and located on the upper side of the swing arm 12. The first limiting member 14 has a first guide groove 140 vertically opened on the side facing the swing arm 12.

[0115] The second limiting member 15 is provided on the mounting bracket 9, spaced apart from the first limiting member 14 and located on the lower side of the swing rod 12. The second limiting member 15 has a second guide groove 150 vertically opened on the side facing the swing rod 12.

[0116] When the rotating shaft 413 rotates, it drives the swing arm 12 to swing around the rotating shaft 413, so that the roller 13 rotates to the first guide groove 140 or the second guide groove 150 and slides along the first guide groove 140 or the second guide groove 150, so that the jig assembly 41 moves in the vertical direction.

[0117] In this embodiment, one end of the rocker arm 12 is connected to the end of the rotating shaft 413 that extends outward from the mounting base 7, and the rocker arm 12 is located outside the driven gear 11, serving as an extension component for the rotation of the rotating shaft 413; the other end of the rocker arm 12 is provided with a roller 13 for interacting with the limiting member. The roller 13 is mounted on the free end of the rocker arm 12, can roll and cooperate with the guide groove, reducing friction and achieving guidance.

[0118] The first limiting member 14 and the second limiting member 15 are respectively provided on the mounting frame 9, located on the upper and lower sides of the swing arm 12, and each has a vertical first guide groove 140 and a second guide groove 150 to limit and guide the movement path of the roller 13.

[0119] When the rotating shaft 413 rotates under the drive of the tilting drive assembly 42 (through the meshing of the driven gear 11 and the rack 10), the rocker arm 12 swings synchronously with the rotating shaft 413 around the horizontal axis. The swinging of the rocker arm 12 causes the roller 13 to move along an arc-shaped trajectory at its free end.

[0120] The movement of roller 13 is restricted by the guide grooves of the first limiting member 14 and the second limiting member 15. When roller 13 enters the first guide groove 140 (upper side) or the second guide groove 150 (lower side), its movement path is constrained to slide along the vertical direction of the guide groove. This causes the entire fixture assembly 41 to move in the vertical direction, thereby realizing the adjustment of the vertical position of the first receiving part 400 after flipping.

[0121] That is, the rotation of the pivot 413 not only causes the fixture assembly 41 to flip (changing the orientation of the first receiving part 400), but also introduces vertical displacement through the rocker arm 12 and the guide groove mechanism. This combined motion allows the first receiving part 400 to complete height adjustment while flipping horizontally, so as to better connect with the first conveying mechanism 3 or the unloading mechanism 5.

[0122] In the initial state, the coated workpiece is located in the first receiving part 400, the fixture assembly 41 is in the initial position, the roller 13 of the swing arm 12 may be located in an intermediate position outside the first guide groove 140 or the second guide groove 150, and the rotating shaft 413 has not yet rotated.

[0123] Then, the flip drive assembly 42 drives the mounting base 7 to slide vertically, and the driven gear 11 meshes with the rack 10 and rotates, driving the rotating shaft 413 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 413 causes the rocker arm 12 to swing around the axis of the rotating shaft 413, and the roller 13 begins to move along an arc path with the free end of the rocker arm 12.

[0124] Immediately afterwards, when the rocker arm 12 swings to a certain angle, the roller 13 contacts and enters the first guide groove 140 of the first limiting member 14 (if swinging upward) or the second guide groove 150 of the second limiting member 15 (if swinging downward). The movement trajectory of the roller 13 changes from an arc shape to vertical sliding along the guide groove.

[0125] At this time, when the roller 13 slides along the first guide groove 140 or the second guide groove 150, its vertical displacement is transmitted to the mounting base 7 and the fixture assembly 41 through the rocker arm 12 and the rotating shaft 413. Since the mounting base 7 itself is already sliding, the interaction between the roller 13 and the guide groove further adjusts the height of the fixture assembly 41, causing the first receiving part 400 to rise or fall in the vertical direction.

[0126] Finally, the rotation of the pivot 413 and the swing of the lever 12 work together to flip the orientation of the first receiving portion 400 (e.g., from facing the first conveying mechanism 3 to facing the second receiving portion 500 of the unloading mechanism 5), while adjusting its height to match the second receiving portion 500 of the unloading mechanism 5. The coated workpiece is then transferred to the second receiving portion 500, completing the handover.

[0127] By setting the above structure, the design of this embodiment brings the following beneficial effects:

[0128] Enhanced accuracy and controllability of the flipping: The guide grooves of the first limiting member 14 and the second limiting member 15 limit the swing range of the swing arm 12, and the sliding of the roller 13 within the guide groove ensures that the flipping angle and vertical displacement of the fixture assembly 41 are controllable. This design avoids excessive flipping or positional deviation, and improves the accuracy of the docking between the first receiving part 400 and the target mechanism (first conveying mechanism 3 or unloading mechanism 5).

[0129] Achieving a combined tilting and lifting motion: Through the swing arm 12 and guide groove mechanism, the fixture assembly 41 can not only tilt horizontally but also move vertically. This combined motion allows the first receiving part 400 to flexibly adjust its position to adapt to the first conveying mechanism 3 or unloading mechanism 5 at different heights, improving the operational flexibility of the equipment.

[0130] Improving the smoothness of workpiece handover: The vertical movement of the jig assembly 41 allows the first receiving part 400 to be closer to the second receiving part 500 (unloading mechanism 5), shortening the workpiece transfer distance and reducing the risk of dropping or shifting during the handover process. This design optimizes the transition process from flipping to unloading, ensuring the smoothness and stability of workpiece handover.

[0131] In summary, the working principle of this embodiment is to drive the swing arm 12 to swing by rotating the shaft 413, and combine the guiding effect of the roller 13 and the guide groove to expand the flipping motion into a compound motion of flipping and vertical lifting; the working process is clear and coherent, from the swing of the swing arm 12 to the sliding of the roller 13 and then to the adjustment of the fixture assembly 41; the working effect is reflected in the improvement of accuracy, flexibility, smoothness, stability and production efficiency.

[0132] Please continue to refer to Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments, the feeding mechanism 5 proposed in this application further includes:

[0133] Base 52;

[0134] Turntable 53 is rotatably mounted on base 52 and located below fixture assembly 41. Second receiving portion 500 is constructed on the side of turntable 53 facing fixture assembly 41.

[0135] A rotation drive 54 is located on the base 52. The output end of the rotation drive 54 is connected to the side of the turntable 53 facing away from the fixture assembly 41, and is used to drive the turntable 53 to rotate horizontally.

[0136] In this embodiment, after the coated workpiece is flipped, it needs to be transferred to the unloading mechanism 5 for subsequent processing. However, a single fixed second receiving part 500 may not be able to meet the unloading requirements of multiple directions or multiple stations. The introduction of the turntable 53 allows the second receiving part 500 to rotate with the turntable 53, flexibly connecting to different unloading paths or equipment.

[0137] By rotating the turntable 53 horizontally, the second receiving section 500 can be adjusted to different positions to facilitate the transfer of workpieces to multiple unloading processes (such as inspection, stacking or conveying).

[0138] The turntable 53 can rotate horizontally on the base 52, and the position of the second receiving part 500 is adjusted accordingly, enabling the coated workpiece to be sent to different unloading directions or stations. This flexibility allows the unloading mechanism 5 to adapt to various downstream processing needs (such as diverting to different trays 551 or testing equipment), enhancing the versatility and adaptability of the equipment.

[0139] The second receiving section 500 is located on the side of the turntable 53 facing the fixture assembly 41, directly receiving the flipped coated workpiece. The rotation drive 54 drives the turntable 53 to rotate, quickly sending the workpiece to the unloading position of the second conveying mechanism 51. This design reduces intermediate steps in workpiece transfer and improves the overall efficiency from flipping to unloading.

[0140] The turntable 53 is mounted on the base 52 and located below the fixture assembly 41, making full use of the vertical space of the equipment. The second receiving part 500 faces upward and docks with the fixture assembly 41. The turntable 53 is connected to the rotation drive 54 on the side facing away from the fixture assembly 41. The structure is compact and well-organized, reducing the equipment's footprint and improving space utilization.

[0141] The horizontal rotation of the turntable 53, in coordination with the second conveying mechanism 51, makes the unloading process more automated. By controlling the rotation angle and speed of the rotation drive 54 (such as a motor), the second receiving part 500 can accurately align the unloading point, supporting a continuous and efficient production process.

[0142] In summary, this embodiment designs the unloading mechanism 5 as including a base 52, a turntable 53, and a rotation drive 54, with the second receiving portion 500 positioned on the side of the turntable 53 facing the fixture assembly 41. This design primarily aims to meet the needs of multi-station unloading, adapt to the spatial layout of the flipping mechanism 4, optimize the process flow, and enhance automation capabilities. Its effects are reflected in the flexibility of workpiece allocation, the efficiency of transfer and unloading, the optimization of space utilization, the stability of rotation, and the improvement of the automation process. This design enables the unloading mechanism 5 to efficiently receive the flipped coated workpieces and complete the unloading task, significantly improving the overall performance of the coating unloading equipment.

[0143] Reference Figure 5 In some embodiments, the feeding mechanism 5 proposed in this application further includes:

[0144] The unloading conveying assembly 55 is located on one side of the turntable 53 and includes a material tray 551 and an unloading conveyor belt 552 disposed on the machine base 1. The material tray 551 is used to carry the coated workpiece, and the unloading conveyor belt 552 is used to carry and convey the material tray 551 to move toward or away from the turntable 53.

[0145] The second conveying mechanism 51 is located above the unloading conveying assembly 55 and the turntable 53, and is used to transfer the coated workpiece on the turntable 53 to the material tray 551 of the unloading conveyor belt 552.

[0146] In this embodiment, the tray 551 serves as a carrier unit, directly accommodating the coated workpieces. It can load multiple workpieces at once, ensuring the orderly arrangement of the workpieces.

[0147] The unloading conveyor belt 552 is set on the machine base 1 to carry the material tray 551 and drive it to move in the horizontal direction (towards or away from the turntable 53) to realize the dynamic transportation of the workpiece.

[0148] The feeding conveyor belt 552, through continuous or intermittent movement, transports the material tray 551 from near the turntable 53 to the downstream process, forming a dynamic feeding channel. The positioning and function of the second handling mechanism 51:

[0149] The second transport mechanism 51 is located above the unloading conveyor assembly 55 and the turntable 53, covering the vertical space between them. It can grip the coated workpiece from the second receiving portion 500 of the turntable 53 and transfer it to the tray 551 of the unloading conveyor belt 552 via a robotic arm, suction cup, or other transport device. This upper arrangement allows the second transport mechanism 51 to directly operate the workpiece transfer between the turntable 53 and the tray 551, reducing the complexity of the transport path.

[0150] The turntable 53 rotates horizontally via the drive component 54, positioning the coated workpiece on the second receiving portion 500 within the transport range of the second transport mechanism 51. The unloading conveyor assembly 55, located on one side of the turntable 53, receives the workpiece transferred by the second transport mechanism 51 and conveys it out via a conveyor belt. The turntable 53 is responsible for receiving and initially positioning the workpiece, the unloading conveyor assembly 55 is responsible for batch transport of the workpiece, and the second transport mechanism 51 acts as a bridge between the two, ensuring a smooth transition from point-to-point unloading to linear transport of the workpiece.

[0151] By setting the above structure, the design of this embodiment produces the following beneficial effects:

[0152] Continuous workpiece feeding is achieved: the feeding conveyor belt 552 drives the material tray 551 to move toward or away from the turntable 53, enabling the coated workpieces to be continuously transferred from the turntable 53 to the material tray 551 and sent to the downstream process. This continuity avoids the accumulation of workpieces on the turntable 53, ensures uninterrupted feeding, and improves production efficiency.

[0153] Improving the efficiency and stability of workpiece transfer: The second conveying mechanism 51 is located above the turntable 53 and the unloading conveying assembly 55, and can directly grab workpieces from the second receiving part 500 of the turntable 53 and place them into the material tray 551. The short path design reduces the handling time, and the upper arrangement ensures the stability of operation and reduces the risk of workpieces falling or shifting.

[0154] Supports batch and orderly processing: The tray 551 can hold multiple coated workpieces, and the unloading conveyor belt 552 transports them in an orderly manner to the designated position. This design enables batch unloading and arrangement of workpieces, facilitating subsequent stacking, packaging, or inspection, and improving the organization and controllability of production.

[0155] Optimized space utilization and process integration: The material feeding and conveying assembly 55 is located on one side of the turntable 53, forming a spatial synergy with the horizontal rotation function of the turntable 53. The second conveying mechanism 51 covers the transfer area between the two on the upper side. This layout makes full use of the horizontal and vertical space of the equipment, seamlessly connecting the point feeding of the turntable 53 with the linear transport of the conveyor belt, and optimizing the overall process from flipping to feeding.

[0156] In summary, the principle of this embodiment is to dynamically transfer and transport the coated workpieces on the turntable 53 to the downstream process through the coordinated operation of the unloading and conveying assembly 55 (material tray 551 and unloading conveyor belt 552) and the second handling mechanism 51. Its effects are reflected in the realization of continuous unloading, improved transfer efficiency and stability, the realization of orderly batch processing, optimization of space and process, and enhanced automation flexibility.

[0157] Reference Figure 5 In some embodiments, the feeding mechanism 5 proposed in this application includes:

[0158] The upper tray conveyor belt 56 is located on the machine base 1 and is situated on one side of the conveying direction of the unloading conveyor belt 552. It is used to receive the tray 551 and unload the tray 551.

[0159] The third conveying assembly 57 is located on the base 1 and is at least partially located above the unloading conveyor belt 552 and the upper empty tray conveyor belt 56, for transferring the material tray 551 on the upper empty tray conveyor belt 56 to the unloading conveyor belt 552.

[0160] In this embodiment, the unloading mechanism is supplemented with an upper empty tray conveyor belt 56 and a third handling component 57, forming a circulating conveying system with the unloading conveyor belt 552 to handle the supply and transfer of empty trays. Its design principle is based on the needs of tray recycling, process optimization, and automated integration, as detailed below:

[0161] The upper empty tray conveyor belt 56 is located on the machine base, on one side of the conveying direction of the unloading conveyor belt 552, forming a horizontal parallel layout with the unloading conveyor belt 552. It is used to receive empty trays (trays 551) and transport these empty trays to the vicinity of the unloading conveyor belt 552 for use in the unloading process.

[0162] The third conveying assembly 57 is located on the base 1, at least partially above the unloading conveyor belt 552 and the upper empty tray conveyor belt 56, covering the transfer area between them. Typically, above the unloading conveyor belt 552 and the upper empty tray conveyor belt 56 is a conveying robotic arm or a type of conveying arm composed of modules in multiple directions combined with gripping elements such as suction cups and claws. It is used to grab empty trays from the upper empty tray conveyor belt 56 and transfer them to the unloading conveyor belt 552, providing empty trays for the unloading process.

[0163] This embodiment integrates the supply of empty material trays into the automation system through the above design. By controlling the movement of the upper empty tray conveyor belt 56 and the third handling component 57, a seamless connection is achieved from the supply of empty trays to the loading of workpieces, thus optimizing the automation level of the unloading process.

[0164] Reference Figure 6 In some embodiments, the feeding mechanism 2 proposed in this application includes a tray 21 and a tray support assembly 22 disposed on the machine base 1. The tray 21 is used to support multiple coated workpieces, and the tray support assembly 22 is used to support the tray 21. The first conveying mechanism 3 includes:

[0165] Two mounting bases 31 are spaced apart on opposite sides of the feeding mechanism 2;

[0166] The first horizontal drive element 32 is disposed on at least one of the two mounting bases 31;

[0167] The second horizontal drive unit 33 is disposed at the output end of the first horizontal drive unit 32;

[0168] The vertical drive unit 34 is disposed at the output end of the second horizontal drive unit 33;

[0169] At least one suction nozzle 35 is disposed at the output end of the vertical drive 34 for adsorbing the coated workpiece;

[0170] The first horizontal drive member 32 is used to drive the suction nozzle 35 to move horizontally between multiple coated workpieces, the second horizontal drive member 33 is used to drive the suction nozzle 35 to move horizontally between the fixture assembly 41 and the tray 21, and the vertical drive member 34 is used to drive the suction nozzle 35 to approach or move away from the coated workpieces on the tray 21 in a vertical direction.

[0171] In this embodiment, the tray 21 serves as a container that directly carries multiple coated workpieces. The tray 21 arranges the workpieces in an orderly manner through its structural design (such as a grid or groove), which facilitates subsequent handling.

[0172] The pallet-supporting assembly 22 is mounted on the base 1, serving as a support platform for the pallet 21 and ensuring its stability and accessibility during storage. The pallet 21 is positioned in a predetermined location, aligned with the first conveying mechanism 3. Multiple coated workpieces on the pallet 21 are stored horizontally at intervals, awaiting retrieval by the first conveying mechanism 3. The design of the pallet 21 allows multiple coated workpieces to be distributed horizontally, providing a stable storage environment in conjunction with the support of the pallet-supporting assembly 22, ensuring that the workpieces will not shift or be damaged before handling.

[0173] The first conveying mechanism 3 consists of two mounting bases 31, multiple driving components (first horizontal driving component 32, second horizontal driving component 33, and vertical driving component 34), and a suction nozzle 35. Its working principle is based on precise positioning and adsorption transfer in three-dimensional space, as detailed below:

[0174] Two mounting bases 31 are spaced apart on opposite sides of the feeding mechanism 2 to form a support frame for the first conveying mechanism 3, providing a mounting base for the drive components.

[0175] The first horizontal drive 32 is mounted on at least one mounting base 31, driving the suction nozzle 35 to move horizontally for selecting a target workpiece among a plurality of coated workpieces in the tray 21.

[0176] The second horizontal drive 33 is connected to the output end of the first horizontal drive 32, and further drives the suction nozzle 35 to move in the horizontal direction, for switching positions between the tray 21 and the fixture assembly 41.

[0177] The vertical drive unit 34 is connected to the output end of the second horizontal drive unit 33, driving the suction nozzle 35 to move in the vertical direction, so that the suction nozzle 35 can approach or move away from the workpiece on the tray 21.

[0178] The suction nozzle 35 is located at the output end of the vertical drive component 34. It uses negative pressure to adsorb the coated workpiece, thereby achieving the gripping and release of the workpiece.

[0179] The first horizontal drive 32 and the second horizontal drive 33 together realize the two-dimensional movement of the suction nozzle 35 in the horizontal plane. The first horizontal drive 32 is responsible for selecting the workpiece in the tray 21, and the second horizontal drive 33 is responsible for moving the suction nozzle 35 from the tray 21 to the first receiving portion 400 of the fixture assembly 41.

[0180] The vertical drive unit 34 controls the up and down movement of the suction nozzle 35, so that it descends to the workpiece surface of the tray 21 when picking up materials, rises away from the tray 21 after adsorption, and descends to the first receiving part 400 when discharging materials, and rises after release.

[0181] The suction nozzle 35 uses negative pressure to adsorb the workpiece, ensuring that the workpiece is firmly fixed during transportation and preventing it from falling or shifting.

[0182] The first conveying mechanism 3 is positioned above the loading mechanism 2 and the flipping mechanism 4, and its range of motion covers the tray 21 and the fixture assembly 41. The tray 21 of the loading mechanism 2 provides the first conveying mechanism 3 with a source of workpieces, and the first conveying mechanism 3 transfers the workpieces from the tray 21 to the first receiving part 400 through precise positioning and adsorption.

[0183] In summary, in this embodiment, the feeding mechanism 2 achieves orderly storage and stable supply of coated workpieces through the tray 21 and the tray support assembly 22. The first handling mechanism 3, through the collaboration of two mounting bases 31, a multi-axis drive component, and the suction nozzle 35, achieves efficient transfer of workpieces based on three-dimensional positioning and negative pressure adsorption. This provides reliable workpiece supply and transfer support for the coating unloading equipment, laying the foundation for subsequent flipping and unloading processes.

[0184] In some embodiments, the structures of the second conveying mechanism and the third conveying component 57 may be the same as those of the first conveying mechanism, which will not be described in detail here.
