[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to further illustrate the present invention.

[0021] First, combine Figures 1 to 3 The flip-and-combine tooling according to the embodiment of the utility model is described, which is used to combine the upper and lower parts of a workpiece together and has a wide range of application scenarios.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the flip combined tooling of the embodiment of the utility model comprises a support plate 1, a first mold plate 2, a second mold plate 3 and a flip module 4;

[0023] Specifically, Figure 1As shown, the first mold plate 2 is arranged on the support plate 1; the second mold plate 3 is arranged on the support plate 1, and the second mold plate 3 is arranged adjacent to the first mold plate 2; the flip module 4 is connected to the first mold plate 2, and the flip module 4 drives the first mold plate 2 to flip, thereby realizing the combination with the second mold plate 3.

The two concave areas are used to place the upper and lower parts of the workpiece respectively, and the shape and size of the concave areas are adapted to the shape and size of the workpiece to be placed. When the two concave areas are combined, a complete workpiece mold cavity is formed.

[0025] Further, if Figure 1 As shown, the flip module 4 includes: a driving component 41 and a driven component 42; the driving component 41 and the driven component 42 are both connected to the first mold plate 2, and are respectively located on both sides of the first mold plate 2; the driving component 41 drives the first mold plate 2 to rotate, and the first mold plate 2 drives the driven component 42 to rotate synchronously.

[0026] Further, if Figure 1 As shown, the driving assembly 41 includes: a power element 411 and a gear rack mechanism 412; the gear rack mechanism 412 is arranged at the output end of the power element 411, and the gear rack mechanism 412 is connected to one side of the first mold plate 2. The power element 411 drives the gear rack mechanism 412 to rotate, and drives the first mold plate 2 to flip. In this embodiment, the power element 411 is a cylinder, and the gear rack mechanism 412 includes a gear and a rack. The output end of the cylinder is connected to one end of the rack. The cylinder is extended and retracted to drive the rack to move, and the gear is meshed with the rack. The gear is connected to the connecting block 413. When the gear rotates, it drives the connecting block 413 to rotate, and the connecting block 413 flips the first mold plate 2.

[0027] Further, if Figure 1 As shown, the driving assembly 41 further includes: a pair of connecting blocks 413 , one connecting block 413 is used to connect the rack and pinion mechanism 412 and one side of the first mold plate 2 , and the other connecting block 413 is used to connect the first mold plate 2 and the driven assembly 42 .

[0028] Further, if Figure 1 , 2As shown, it also includes: a fixed plate 5 and a plurality of buffer components 6; the fixed plate 5 is arranged on the second mold plate 3; and the plurality of buffer components 6 are arranged between the fixed plate 5 and the second mold plate 3. In this embodiment, a fixed plate 5 is added to prevent the workpiece on the first mold plate 2 from squeezing out the workpiece on the second mold plate 3 when the first mold plate 2 and the second mold plate 3 are combined, causing the upper and lower parts of the workpiece to be misaligned. The fixed plate 5 makes the subsequent welding of the workpiece more accurate, and the efficiency of the welding is also improved.

[0030] During operation, the cylinder drives the connecting block 413 to rotate through the gear rack, and the connecting block 413 drives the second mold plate 3 to flip quickly, and the second mold plate 3 drives the driven component 42 to move. When flipping, the fixed plate 5 on the first mold plate 2 is supported by the spring and is slightly higher than the recessed area on the first mold plate 2 for placing the workpiece. When the upper part of the workpiece is pressed down, even if the lower part is slightly displaced, the workpiece will not leave the recessed area of ​​the first mold plate 2. When pressing down, the spring contracts to play a buffering role, thereby protecting the workpiece and the mold.
