[0044] Working principle: Before use, first turn on the external power and air supply to provide power to the drive components, motor and cylinder; then, under the action of the pen-shaped cylinder 45 inside the flipping and picking device 4, the feeding suction cup 47 is pushed to the bottom outlet of the storage bin 52. The feeding suction cup 47 starts to pick up the paper spoon 6. When the pen-shaped cylinder 45 retracts, the feeding suction cup 47 can pick up the paper spoon 6 to the predetermined position; then, under the drive of the electric displacement table 21, the positioning plate 23 can synchronously drive the upper half gripper 27 and the lower half gripper 28 to move forward to the position where the feeding suction cup 47 picks up the paper spoon 6. At this time, the pneumatic finger 26 starts to operate. The upper gripper 27 and lower gripper 28 can clamp the paper spoon 6. Then, the electric displacement table 21 moves backward and brings the clamped paper spoon 6 to the folding punching station. When the paper spoon 6 reaches the punching station, the negative pressure worktable assembly 32 is activated to attract the paper spoon 6. Then, the pneumatic finger 26 is driven by the tail stepper motor 29 to perform a flipping action to fold the paper spoon 6. After the folding action is completed, the edge pressing cylinder 35 is activated to fold the handle of the paper spoon 6 downward. Then, the edge pressing cylinder 35 resets and drives the handle to spring back so that the arc edge presses the spoon head. After the folding step is completed, the punching cylinder mounting base 37 is activated to press the folded paper spoon 6 into the storage compartment 33.
