The flipping part 41 is located on the sliding plate 11 and is used to flip the flange blank on the sliding plate 11 near the stop 111 onto the transfer plate 23. The limiting part 42 is located on the sliding plate 11 and is used to limit the flange blank on the sliding plate 11.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The flipping section 41 includes a rotary cylinder 411, a flipping plate 412, and a support plate 413.

The plateless cavity of the limiting telescopic plate 423 is filled with liquid, and the plateless cavity of the limiting telescopic plate 423 is connected to the plate cavity of the drive telescopic plate 421 through a pipe.

[0034] In use, the flange blank slides along the sliding plate 11 to the stop 111. The controller 252 drives the rotary cylinder 411 to work. The rotary cylinder 411 drives the flipping plate 412 to rotate. The bearing plate 413 lifts the flange blank, and the flange blank rolls onto the transfer plate 23. The partition plate 243 prevents the flange blank from falling during the flipping process.

[0035] When the flip plate 412 rotates, the third spring 422 resets and drives the movable end of the drive telescopic plate 421 to extend, reducing the volume of the plate cavity of the drive telescopic plate 421. The liquid in the plate cavity of the drive telescopic plate 421 flows through the pipe to the plateless cavity of the limiting telescopic plate 423, increasing the volume of the plateless cavity of the limiting telescopic plate 423. The movable end of the limiting telescopic plate 423 extends, making it difficult for the flange blank on the sliding plate 11 to slide to the stop 111.

[0036] When the flip plate 412 is reset, the flip plate 412 squeezes the movable end of the drive telescopic plate 421, the volume of the plate cavity of the drive telescopic plate 421 increases, the liquid in the non-plate cavity of the limit telescopic plate 423 flows through the pipe into the plate cavity of the drive telescopic plate 421, the movable end of the limit telescopic plate 423 contracts, and the flange blank on the sliding plate 11 slides to the stop 111.

[0038] When the controller 252 drives the rotary cylinder 411 to reset, the controller 252 drives the movable end of the lifting cylinder 51 to extend. The movable end of the lifting cylinder 51 drives the first pulley 52 to move synchronously. The wire rope 54 passes around the first pulley 52 and the second pulley 53 in sequence. The wire rope 54 pulls the sliding frame 21 to slide in the vertical direction, and the flange blank on the transfer plate 23 is lifted to the inlet of the medium frequency induction furnace 31.

The overflow valve 633 is installed on the second connecting pipe 632.

[0043] When the sliding frame 21 slides upward, it compresses the air bladder 612. The liquid inside the air bladder 612 flows through the first connecting pipe 623 into the rodless cavity of the adjusting telescopic rod 622, increasing the volume of the rodless cavity. The movable end of the adjusting telescopic rod 622 extends, driving the guide plate 621 to rotate. The two sets of guide plates 621 form a guide channel. When the movable end of the adjusting telescopic rod 622 extends to its limit position, the liquid inside the air bladder 612 flows through the first connecting pipe 623, the second connecting pipe 632, and the overflow valve 633 into the rodless cavity of the supporting telescopic rod 631. The volume of the rodless cavity of the supporting telescopic rod 631 increases, and the movable end of the supporting telescopic rod 631 extends. The movable end of the supporting telescopic rod 631 slides to the bottom of the first connecting plate 22 and the second connecting plate 24, with the movable ends of the two sets of supporting telescopic rods 631 supporting the first connecting plate 22 and the second connecting plate 24 respectively.

[0044] The implementation principle of the flange heating automatic feeding device in this application embodiment is as follows: In use, the flange blank slides along the sliding plate 11 to the stop 111. The controller 252 drives the rotary cylinder 411 to work. The rotary cylinder 411 drives the flipping plate 412 to rotate. The bearing plate 413 lifts the flange blank, and the flange blank rolls onto the transfer plate 23. The partition plate 243 prevents the flange blank from falling during the flipping process.

[0045] When the flip plate 412 rotates, the third spring 422 resets and drives the movable end of the drive telescopic plate 421 to extend. The liquid in the plate cavity of the drive telescopic plate 421 flows through the pipe to the plateless cavity of the limit telescopic plate 423. The movable end of the limit telescopic plate 423 extends, and the flange blank on the sliding plate 11 is not easy to slide to the stop 111.

[0046] When the flip plate 412 is reset, the flip plate 412 squeezes the movable end of the drive telescopic plate 421, and the liquid in the non-plate cavity of the limit telescopic plate 423 flows through the pipe into the plate cavity of the drive telescopic plate 421. The movable end of the limit telescopic plate 423 retracts, and the flange blank on the sliding plate 11 slides to the stop block 111.

[0047] When the controller 252 drives the rotary cylinder 411 to reset, the controller 252 drives the movable end of the lifting cylinder 51 to extend. The movable end of the lifting cylinder 51 drives the first pulley 52 to move synchronously. The wire rope 54 passes around the first pulley 52 and the second pulley 53 in sequence. The wire rope 54 pulls the sliding frame 21 to slide in the vertical direction, and the flange blank on the transfer plate 23 is lifted to the inlet of the medium frequency induction furnace 31.

[0048] When the sliding frame 21 slides upward, it compresses the air bladder 612. The liquid inside the air bladder 612 flows through the first connecting pipe 623 into the rodless cavity of the adjusting telescopic rod 622. The movable end of the adjusting telescopic rod 622 extends, driving the guide plate 621 to rotate. The two sets of guide plates 621 form a guide channel. When the movable end of the adjusting telescopic rod 622 extends to its limit position, the liquid inside the air bladder 612 flows through the first connecting pipe 623, the second connecting pipe 632, and the overflow valve 633 into the rodless cavity of the supporting telescopic rod 631. The movable end of the supporting telescopic rod 631 extends and slides to the bottom of the first connecting plate 22 and the second connecting plate 24. The movable ends of the two sets of supporting telescopic rods 631 respectively support the first connecting plate 22 and the second connecting plate 24.

[0049] When the flange blank on the transfer plate 23 moves to the medium frequency induction furnace 31, the first spring 221 and the second spring 241 are reset. The controller 252 drives the movable end of the lifting cylinder 51 to retract. The lifting cylinder 51 drives the sliding frame 21 to slide downward through the wire rope 54. When the first connecting plate 22 and the second connecting plate 24 slide to the support telescopic rod 631, the air bag 612 is fully reset, and the movable end of the support telescopic rod 631 is reset, making it easy for the sliding frame 21 to be reset.

[0050] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
