DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0016] The present embodiment provides a turnover mechanism, as shown in Figure 1 including a base plate 1 and a support frame 2, one end of the base plate 1 is hinged to the support frame 2, two main driving devices 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides or the bottom surface of the base plate 1, and the main driving devices 3 can drive the base plate 1 to realize the turnover between the horizontal state and the vertical state; In the present embodiment, the base plate 1 is provided with a workbench clamping device, and the workbench 8 is clamped on the base plate 1 through the workbench clamping device (the workbench clamping device is prior art, which will not be described here); Further comprising a positioning driving mechanism located between the two main driving devices 3, the spacing between the positioning driving mechanism and the two main driving devices 3 is equal, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 5 The positioning driving mechanism includes a detection device 4, a brake device 5 and an auxiliary driving device 6, and the auxiliary driving device 6 can drive the base plate 1 to realize the turnover between the horizontal state and the vertical state; When the detection device 4 detects that the base plate 1 is turned to the vertical state, the brake device 5 brakes the auxiliary driving device 6.

[0017] A flap mechanism provided in this embodiment uses two main driving devices 3 to provide the main driving force for the flipping of the substrate 1, and uses the auxiliary driving device 6 of the positioning driving mechanism to provide an additional driving force for the substrate 1, so that the substrate 1 can be flipped between the horizontal state and the vertical state more quickly; by the cooperation of the detection device 4 and the braking device 5, the auxiliary driving device 6 can implement braking when the substrate 1 is in the vertical state, and accurate positioning can be achieved without a stop block, enabling the substrate 1 to be accurately maintained at the processing position.

[0018] Specifically, as Figure 4 shown, the support frame 2 includes a base 21 and a driving bracket 22 vertically fixed on one side of the base 21. Both ends of the main driving device 3 are hinged to the base 21 and the driving bracket 22 respectively. In this embodiment, the driving bracket 22 is fixed to the base 21 by bolts.

[0019] Specifically, as Figure 2 shown, the main driving device 3 includes an oil cylinder 31. Both ends of the oil cylinder 31 are hinged to the substrate 1 and the support frame 2 respectively. Supports for hinging are fixed on both the substrate 1 and the support frame 2, and the oil cylinder 31 is hinged to the supports through hinge shafts.

[0020] Specifically, as Figure 3 shown, the support frame 2 further includes two columns 23 oppositely arranged at both ends of the base 21 and a cross beam 24 for connecting the upper ends of the two columns. The base 21, the columns 23 and the cross beam 24 can be fixedly connected by bolts to form a window that can accommodate the substrate 1 in the vertical state. The support frame 2 forms a structure similar to a "square" shape, which can ensure the overall fixed stiffness of the structure when the substrate 1 is in the vertical state, thereby ensuring processing stability and improving processing accuracy.

[0021] Specifically, as Figure 5 shown, the auxiliary driving device 6 includes a direct drive motor 61, a lead screw 62 and a lead screw nut 63. The direct drive motor 61 is hinged to the support frame 2. The mover of the direct drive motor 61 is fixedly connected to the lead screw nut 63 (the lead screw nut 63 is embedded in the mover), the lead screw nut 63 is sleeved on the lead screw 62, and one end of the lead screw 62 is hinged to the substrate 1

[0022] Specifically, the detection device 4 is a circular grating encoder provided in the direct drive motor 61, and the braking device 5 is a pneumatic clamp provided in the direct drive motor 61. The pneumatic clamp is used to brake the mover of the direct drive motor 61.

[0023] In the embodiment, the pneumatic clamp is fixed on the stator of the direct drive motor 61, the code disc of the circular grating encoder is fixed on the outer periphery of the rotor, and the light emitting device of the circular grating encoder is fixed on the stator. When debugging, the control system of the machining center obtains the number of turns and the angle of the rotor when the substrate 1 is in the vertical state through the circular grating encoder. In subsequent formal use, when the circular grating encoder detects that the rotor rotates to the number of turns and the angle corresponding to the vertical state, it indicates that the substrate 1 is in the vertical state, at this time the control system clamps the rotor of the direct drive motor 61 through the pneumatic clamp, and at the same time the control system of the machining center controls the oil cylinder 31 to stop feeding. Specifically, as shown in Figure 4 The base 21 and the bottom of the driving support 22 are both fixed with the adjusting pads 7, which facilitates the leveling operation when the support frame 2 is installed to the machining center. Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, and not to limit them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that: it can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacement for part or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
