Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of tipping device technology, and more particularly to a tipping transport device. Background Technology

[0002] In the battery and electronics industry, the main flipping mechanisms on the market involve mounting a conveyor belt on a rotating shaft, which is then driven by a motor to achieve the flipping function. Multiple sets of cylinder clamping mechanisms are installed on the conveyor belt, and cylinders are also used for blocking and limiting. However, this type of flipping mechanism, with its multiple clamping mechanisms and conveyor belt power mechanism, results in an excessively heavy overall weight, high flipping inertia, and low stability. Furthermore, the entire flipping mechanism can only be used for processing at the flipping station; it cannot transport objects during the flipping process. And when re-transportation is needed after flipping, it requires coordination with a transport mechanism, making its functionality relatively limited and its application scenarios restricted.

[0003] In view of this, there is an urgent need in the market for a new type of flipping device to solve the problems existing in the conventional flipping devices. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This disclosure provides a flipping and transporting device to address the problems of large overall weight, limited to flipping only, inability to transport objects during the flipping process, and limited application scenarios in related technologies.

[0005] The overturning transport device provided in this disclosure includes an overturning mechanism and a clamping mechanism; The flipping mechanism includes a flipping frame, a rotating shaft connected to the flipping frame, and a flipping driver connected to the rotating shaft. The clamping mechanism includes at least two clamping wheel sets disposed in the tilting frame, a transmission assembly connected to the clamping wheel sets, and a clamping driver connected to the transmission assembly. The two clamping wheel sets can move toward each other under the drive of the clamping driver and are spaced apart to form a clamping station for clamping the workpiece to be flipped. At least one end of the clamping station forms an inlet / outlet for the workpiece to be flipped to enter and exit; Furthermore, the clamping wheel assembly can reciprocate and rotate under the drive of the roller driver to guide or send the workpiece to be flipped through the inlet and outlet to the clamping station, or to move and guide the workpiece to be flipped in the clamping station. The flipping frame and the clamping mechanism can also reciprocate around the rotating axis together under the drive of the flipping driver.

[0006] In one embodiment, the clamping driver includes a drive cylinder, and the drive cylinder has a reciprocating cylinder connecting plate. The clamping wheel set is provided with at least two rows at intervals, and each includes a roller mounting plate and a roller connecting rod provided on the other side of the roller mounting plate; The cylinder connecting plate is connected to the roller connecting rod via the transmission assembly; When the cylinder connecting plate reciprocates, it can drive the roller connecting rod, the roller mounting plate and the clamping wheel assembly to reciprocate around the transmission assembly.

[0007] In one possible embodiment, the transmission assembly includes a limiting shaft, a power shaft, and a fixed shaft; The fixed shaft is fixedly installed along the transport direction, and the first end of the roller connecting rod is rotatably sleeved on the outer periphery of the fixed shaft; The power shaft extends along the moving direction of the cylinder connecting plate; The limiting shaft is fitted onto the power shaft and connected to the cylinder connecting plate, and can reciprocate along the axial direction of the power shaft. The cylinder connecting plate is also connected to the second end of the roller connecting rod, and can drive the roller connecting rod and the roller mounting plate to rotate around the circumference of the fixed shaft.

[0008] In one embodiment, the roller driver includes a variable frequency motor, a drive belt, and a roller shaft; The rollers in the clamping wheel assembly are respectively fitted onto the roller shaft; The variable frequency motor is connected to the roller shaft via the transmission belt and can drive the clamping wheel assembly to rotate synchronously.

[0009] In one embodiment, the flipping mechanism further includes a reset component electrically connected to the flipping driver; The reset component is triggered when the tilting frame is tilted at a specific angle; After the reset component is triggered, the flip driver triggers the flip frame to perform a reset and reverse at a specific angle.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the reset assembly includes a light-shielding plate and a slotted inductive switch; The light-shielding sheet is fixedly disposed on the end face of the rotating shaft and rotates with the rotating shaft. The slotted sensor switch is spaced apart from the end face of the rotating shaft, and the light-shielding plate triggers the slotted sensor switch once every time the rotating shaft rotates by a set angle.

[0011] In one embodiment, the flipping mechanism further includes support arms that are respectively fixed on both sides of the flipping frame; One side of the tilting frame is rotatably connected to one of the support arms via the rotating shaft, and the other side is rotatably connected to another support arm via the driven shaft; The flipping drive includes a servo motor, which is located on the side of the support arm opposite to the flipping frame and is connected to the rotating shaft via a transmission connection.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the reversing drive further includes a transmission timing belt set; The synchronous belt assembly is located on the side of the support arm opposite to the tilting frame, and is respectively sleeved on the rotating shaft and the synchronous pulley of the servo motor.

[0013] In one embodiment, the overturning transport device further includes a blocking and releasing mechanism; The blocking and releasing mechanism is correspondingly disposed at the end of the clamping station and can reciprocate along the width direction of the clamping station to block or open the end of the clamping station.

[0014] In one embodiment, the flipping frame includes a connecting rod extending along the width direction of the clamping station and located at the end of the clamping station; The blocking and releasing mechanism includes a limiting block movably sleeved on the connecting rod, and a slide cylinder that is throttle-connected to the limiting block. When the slide cylinder extends or retracts, it drives the limiting block to reciprocate along the connecting rod.

[0015] The technical solution provided in this disclosure has the following advantages compared with related technologies: The flipping and transporting device provided in this embodiment cleverly combines a flipping mechanism and a clamping mechanism. At least two clamping wheel sets in the clamping mechanism form a clamping station for clamping and fixing the workpiece to be flipped. At least one end of the clamping station forms an inlet / outlet for the workpiece to enter and exit. The clamping wheel sets can then reciprocate to guide the workpiece into or out of the clamping station through the inlet / outlet, or move and guide the workpiece within the clamping station. This allows the flipping and transporting device to perform the functions of "loading before flipping," "simultaneous transport during flipping," and "unloading after flipping" without requiring an additional transport mechanism. This flipping and transporting device effectively simplifies its structure and significantly expands the functionality of the clamping mechanism, enabling it to be used as an "loading / unloading mechanism," a "transfer mechanism," or even a "processing and assembly station." This diversifies the functionality of the flipping and transporting device and greatly expands its practical application scenarios.

[0016] In addition, by using the clamping wheel assembly in the clamping mechanism as a "component" of the clamping station in the flipping mechanism, the structure of the flipping mechanism is simplified, the overall weight and flipping inertia of the flipping mechanism are reduced, thereby improving the flipping stability of the flipping transport device.

[0021] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of this disclosure more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this disclosure, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this disclosure without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0022] The embodiments of this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides a flipping transport device, which includes a flipping mechanism 1 and a clamping mechanism 2; the flipping mechanism 1 includes a flipping frame 11, a rotating shaft 12 connected to the flipping frame 11, and a flipping driver 13 drivenly connected to the rotating shaft 12; the clamping mechanism 2 includes at least two clamping wheel sets 21 disposed in the flipping frame 11, a transmission assembly 22 connected to the clamping wheel sets 21, and a clamping driver 23 drivenly connected to the transmission assembly 22. The two clamping wheel sets 21 can move towards each other under the drive of the clamping driver 23 and form a clamping station for clamping the workpiece to be flipped at intervals; at least one end of the clamping station forms an inlet and outlet for the workpiece to be flipped to enter and exit; and the clamping wheel sets 21 can also reciprocate and rotate under the drive of the roller driver 4 to guide or send the workpiece to be flipped through the inlet and outlet to the clamping station, or to move and guide the workpiece to be flipped in the clamping station; the flipping frame 11 and the clamping mechanism 2 can also reciprocate and rotate together around the rotating shaft 12 under the drive of the flipping driver 13.

[0024] This flipping and transporting device can be applied, but is not limited to, the flipping and transporting process of various accessories in a laptop. For example, it can be used for the flipping and transporting of keyboards, screen covers, and chassis covers in a laptop. The usage process will be explained using the flipping and transporting of keyboards as an example.

[0025] In specific use, the flipping transport device provided in this embodiment can have its flipping mechanism 1 correspondingly installed in a transport line (the transport line refers to the transport line for materials or workpieces, and does not participate in the loading and unloading transport of the flipping transport device). Since the flipping mechanism 1 is also correspondingly provided with a clamping mechanism 2, and at least two clamping wheel sets 21 in the clamping mechanism 2 move toward each other under the drive of the clamping driver 23 and form a clamping station for clamping and fixing the keyboard to be flipped, the upper and lower clamping wheel sets 21 can respectively make two arc-shaped trajectories. The clamping stations are formed by rotating in opposite directions, and at least one end of the clamping station forms an inlet and outlet for the workpiece to be flipped. Since the clamping wheel set 21 can also reciprocate and rotate under the drive of the roller driver 4, the keyboard can enter the clamping station for "loading" or be taken out of the clamping station for "loading" under the rotational guidance of the two clamping wheel sets 21. Therefore, there is no need to set up an additional "loading and unloading transportation mechanism" to import and fix the keyboard transported from the transport line into the clamping station or take it out of the clamping station.

[0026] Furthermore, since the flipping driver 13 can also drive the flipping frame 11, the clamping mechanism 2, and the keyboard to be flipped in the clamping station to rotate around the rotating shaft 12, while the clamping mechanism 2 and the keyboard are rotating and flipping, the two clamping wheel sets 21 can also drive the keyboard to move in the clamping mechanism 2 by rotating themselves, thereby realizing the function of flipping and moving the keyboard at the same time, further improving the flipping and transporting efficiency of the flipping transport device for the keyboard.

[0027] In addition, when the keyboard to be flipped is flipped to a preset angle (e.g., but not limited to 120°, 180°, 270°, etc.), the clamping wheel group 21 can rotate again under the drive of the roller driver 4, so that the flipped keyboard can be sent out from the clamping station and enter the subsequent assembly station or the subsequent transport line.

[0028] In summary, the flipping and transporting device provided in this embodiment cleverly combines the flipping mechanism 1 and the clamping mechanism 2. The clamping wheel assembly 21 in the clamping mechanism 2 forms a clamping station in the flipping mechanism 1 for clamping and fixing the workpiece to be flipped. Furthermore, the clamping wheel assembly 21 can reciprocate to guide or remove the workpiece from the clamping station, significantly expanding the functionality of the clamping mechanism 2. This allows the clamping mechanism 2 to also be used as a "loading mechanism," "unloading mechanism," "transfer mechanism," or even a "processing and assembly station," thereby diversifying the functionality of the flipping and transporting device and greatly expanding its practical application scenarios. Moreover, the clamping wheel assembly 21 in the clamping mechanism 2 also serves as a "component" of the clamping station in the flipping mechanism 1, simplifying the structure of the flipping mechanism 1, reducing its overall weight and flipping inertia, and thus improving the flipping stability of the flipping and transporting device.

[0029] In one embodiment, the clamping driver 23 includes a drive cylinder, and the drive cylinder has a reciprocating cylinder connecting plate 231; the clamping wheel set 21 is provided with at least two rows at intervals, and each includes a roller mounting plate 211 and a roller connecting rod 212 disposed on the other side of the roller mounting plate 211; the cylinder connecting plate 231 is connected to the roller connecting rod 212 through a transmission assembly 22; When the cylinder connecting plate 231 reciprocates, it can drive the roller connecting rod 212, the roller mounting plate 211 and the clamping wheel set 21 to reciprocate around the transmission assembly 22.

[0030] Specifically, in combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 In further detail, the clamping driver 23 is specifically configured as a driving cylinder, and the driving cylinder has a reciprocating cylinder connecting plate 231; in addition, the clamping wheel assembly 21 is mounted through a roller mounting plate 211, and the other side of the roller mounting plate 211 is connected to the cylinder connecting plate 231 through a roller connecting rod 212. In this way, when the piston in the driving cylinder drives the cylinder connecting plate 231 to reciprocate, it can correspondingly drive the roller mounting plate 211 to rotate through the roller connecting rod 212, thereby realizing the reciprocating rotation of the clamping wheel assembly 21 around the transmission component 22, so as to form a clamping station or cancel the clamping station.

[0031] Furthermore, the roller mounting plate 211 and roller connecting rod 212 in the aforementioned clamping wheel set 21 can be arranged in two rows at intervals in the vertical direction, forming a clamping station by clamping the two rows of clamping wheel sets 21 together in the vertical direction.

[0032] The specific arrangement of the clamping driver 23 and the clamping wheel set 21 is simple in structure and can flexibly form a clamping station by driving the clamping wheel set 21 to reciprocate.

[0033] In one embodiment, the transmission assembly 22 includes a limiting shaft 221, a power shaft 222, and a fixed shaft 223; the fixed shaft 223 is fixedly arranged along the transport direction, and the first end of the roller connecting rod 212 is rotatably sleeved on the outer periphery of the fixed shaft 223; the power shaft 222 extends along the moving direction of the cylinder connecting plate 231; the limiting shaft 221 is limitedly sleeved on the power shaft 222 and limitedly connected to the cylinder connecting plate 231, and can reciprocate along the axial direction of the power shaft 222; The cylinder connecting plate 231 is also connected to the second end of the roller connecting rod 212, and can drive the roller connecting rod 212 and the roller mounting plate 211 to rotate around the circumference of the fixed shaft 223.

[0034] Specifically, in combination Figure 3 and Figure 4In further detail, the transmission assembly 22 is specifically configured to include a limiting shaft 221, a power shaft 222, and a fixed shaft 223. The fixed shaft 223 is fixedly arranged along the transport direction, and the first end of the roller connecting rod 212 is rotatably sleeved on the outer periphery of the fixed shaft 223. In this way, the cylinder connecting plate 231 can correspondingly drive the roller connecting rod 212 to reciprocate around the circumference of the fixed shaft 223. In addition, the power shaft 222 extends along the moving direction of the cylinder connecting plate 231, and the limiting shaft 221 is limited and sleeved on the power shaft 222 and limitedly connected to the cylinder connecting plate 231. In this way, when the piston rod driven by the driving cylinder moves in extension and retraction, the cylinder connecting plate 231 can realize the function of reciprocating along the axial direction of the power shaft 222 through the limiting shaft 221.

[0035] The specific arrangement of the aforementioned transmission component 22 has the functions of simple structure and flexible drive of the clamping wheel set 21 to reciprocate.

[0036] In one embodiment, the roller driver 4 includes a variable frequency motor 41, a transmission belt 42, and a roller shaft 43; the rollers in the clamping wheel set 21 are respectively fitted onto the roller shaft 43; the variable frequency motor 41 is connected to the roller shaft 43 via the transmission belt 42 and can drive the clamping wheel set 21 to rotate synchronously.

[0037] Specifically, in combination Figure 1 and Figure 5 In further detail, the roller driver 4 is specifically configured to include a variable frequency motor 41, a transmission belt 42, and a roller shaft 43. The rollers in the clamping wheel set 21 are respectively mounted on the roller shaft 43, and the variable frequency motor 41 is connected to the roller shaft 43 via the transmission belt 42. In this way, when the variable frequency motor 41 is driven, the transmission belt 42 can drive all the rollers in the clamping wheel set 21 to rotate synchronously through the roller shaft 43, so as to realize the function of guiding or sending the workpiece to be flipped into or out of the clamping station along the transport direction.

[0038] Furthermore, in order to further ensure the rotational synchronization of all rollers in the clamping wheel set 21, the transmission belt 42 may be, but is not limited to, a synchronous belt, and synchronous teeth may be correspondingly provided in the circumferential surface of the roller shaft 43, so as to ensure that each roller shaft 43 can rotate synchronously at the same angle.

[0039] The specific configuration of the roller driver 4 described above has the functions of simple structure and stable drive of the clamping wheel group 21 to reciprocate synchronously.

[0040] In one embodiment, the flipping mechanism 1 further includes a reset component 14 electrically connected to the flipping driver 13; the reset component 14 is triggered when the flipping frame 11 flips at a specific angle; after the reset component 14 is triggered, the flipping driver 13 triggers the flipping frame 11 to perform a reset and reverse at a specific angle.

[0041] Specifically, in combination Figure 2 In further detail, the flipping mechanism 1 is also provided with a reset component 14 electrically connected to the flipping driver 13. The reset component 14 can be triggered when the flipping frame 11 flips at a specific angle (e.g., but not limited to 180°). After the reset component 14 is triggered, the flipping driver 13 triggers the flipping frame 11 to perform a reset and reverse at a specific angle. This ensures that the flipping mechanism 1 returns to its original position after each flip, thereby reducing the error of the flipping mechanism 1 and improving the accuracy of repeated flipping.

[0042] In one embodiment, the reset assembly 14 includes a light-shielding plate and a slotted sensor switch; the light-shielding plate is fixedly disposed on the end face of the rotating shaft 12 and can rotate with the rotating shaft 12; the slotted sensor switch is disposed at a distance from the end face of the rotating shaft 12, and the light-shielding plate triggers the slotted sensor switch once every time the rotating shaft 12 rotates by a set angle (the setting can be but is not limited to 180°).

[0043] Specifically, in combination Figure 2 In further detail, the reset assembly 14 is configured to include a light-shielding plate and a slotted induction switch. The light-shielding plate is fixedly mounted on the end face of the rotating shaft 12 and can rotate synchronously with the rotating shaft 12. The slotted induction switch is spaced apart from the end face of the rotating shaft 12. When the light-shielding plate rotates a set angle with the rotating shaft 12, it can trigger the slotted induction switch once. In this way, the flip driver 13 can receive the reset signal sent by the slotted induction switch, and the flip driver 13 can rotate in the opposite direction by a set angle to reset.

[0044] The specific arrangement of the above-mentioned reset component 14 has the advantages of simple structure and timely reversal reset after the flipping mechanism 1 flips 180°.

[0045] In one embodiment, the flipping mechanism 1 further includes support arms 15 fixedly located on both sides of the flipping frame 11; one side of the flipping frame 11 is rotatably connected to one support arm 15 via a rotating shaft 12, and the other side is rotatably connected to another support arm 15 via a driven shaft 16; the flipping driver 13 includes a servo motor, and the servo motor is disposed on the side of the support arm 15 facing away from the flipping frame 11 and is connected to the rotating shaft 12 for transmission.

[0046] Specifically, in combination Figure 2In further detail, the two support arms 15 can be specifically arranged symmetrically about the center of the flipping mechanism 1, and the rotating shaft 12 and the driven shaft 16 can be specifically arranged to extend in the same horizontal straight line and be perpendicular to the support arms 15. In this way, when the servo motor on the side of the support arm 15 facing away from the flipping frame 11 drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, it can correspondingly drive the flipping mechanism 1 to flip and rotate at any angle between the two support arms 15.

[0047] The specific arrangement of the aforementioned flipping mechanism 1 has the advantages of simple and compact structure and flexible multi-angle flipping.

[0048] In one embodiment, the flip drive 13 further includes a transmission timing belt group 131; the timing belt group 131 is disposed on the side of the support arm 15 facing away from the flip frame 11, and is respectively sleeved on the rotating shaft 12 and the timing pulley of the servo motor.

[0049] Specifically, in combination Figure 2 In further detail, the flipping driver 13 is also equipped with a synchronous belt group 131, which is sleeved on the rotating shaft 12 and the synchronous pulley of the servo motor. This allows for flexible speed adjustment of the output torque of the servo motor through the synchronous belt group 13, thereby adapting to the clamping station of the flipping mechanism 1 to fix workpieces of different weights to be flipped, and fully ensuring the smooth flipping of the flipping mechanism 1.

[0050] In one embodiment, the flipping transport device further includes a blocking and releasing mechanism 3; the blocking and releasing mechanism 3 is correspondingly disposed at the end of the clamping station and can reciprocate along the width direction of the clamping station to block or open the end of the clamping station.

[0051] Specifically, in combination Figure 1 and Figure 6 In further detail, the overturning transport device is provided with a blocking and releasing mechanism 3, which can be respectively set at the inlet end and / or outlet end of the clamping station. Since the blocking and releasing mechanism 3 can reciprocate along the width direction of the clamping station, the function of blocking or opening the inlet end and / or outlet end of the clamping station can be realized by adjusting the specific setting position of the blocking and releasing mechanism 3.

[0052] In one embodiment, the flipping frame 11 includes a connecting rod 111 extending along the width direction of the clamping station and located at the end of the clamping station; the blocking and releasing mechanism 3 includes a limiting block 31 movably sleeved on the connecting rod 111 and a slide cylinder 32 pulverizedly connected to the limiting block 31; when the slide cylinder 32 extends or retracts, it drives the limiting block 31 to reciprocate along the connecting rod 111.

[0053] Specifically, in combination Figure 1 and Figure 6 In further detail, the connecting rod 111 in the flipping frame 11 extends along the width direction of the clamping station and is located at the end of the clamping station. The blocking and releasing mechanism 3 includes a limiting block 31 movably sleeved on the connecting rod 111 and a slide cylinder 32 that is pulsatorically connected to the limiting block 31. In this way, the slide cylinder 32 can quickly open the inlet end and / or outlet end of the clamping station by driving the limiting block 31 to reciprocate along the connecting rod 111.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature.
