[0002] During the batch manufacturing process of the assembly line, wafers often need to be turned over to facilitate different types of processing. Existing wafer turning devices are mostly directly driven by motors, which requires high manufacturing costs. At the same time, the turning structure lacks the design of fast batch fixing of wafers, and the operation speed is slow. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a turnover mechanism based on pneumatic control to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0005] A flipping mechanism based on pneumatic control comprises a base device, a bearing device is arranged on the top of the base device, and a power device is arranged below the bearing device; the bearing device comprises a placement plate, two guide rails are symmetrically fixedly arranged on the top of the placement plate, slide bars are slidably arranged on the guide rails, and a plurality of clamps are evenly fixedly arranged on the slide bars, a rack is fixedly arranged at the front end of the guide rails, a first gear is arranged between the racks, a motor is installed at the bottom of the first gear, a first rotating shaft is fixedly arranged on one side of the placement plate, and a second gear is arranged at the rear end of the first rotating shaft; the power device comprises a rotating seat, a cylinder is installed on the top of the rotating seat, a moving seat is arranged on the cylinder, a rocker arm is rotatably arranged on the top of the moving seat, a second rotating shaft is fixedly arranged on the top of the rocker arm, and a third gear is arranged at the rear end of the second rotating shaft.

[0006] Furthermore: the base device includes a load-bearing seat, and a support seat is fixedly arranged on the bottom of the load-bearing seat.

[0007] Furthermore: the guide rail has a T-shaped cross section, and the guide rail is welded to the placement plate.

[0008] Furthermore: the clamping jaw is arc-shaped.

[0009] Furthermore: the first gear is connected to the placement plate bearing, and the motor is connected to the placement plate bolts.

[0010] Furthermore: the third gear is key-connected to the second rotating shaft.

[0011] Furthermore: the rotating seat is connected to the supporting seat bearing.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0013] 1. After the wafer is fixed, the rotating seat supporting cylinder extends, and the rotating seat at the bottom of the cylinder rotates around the supporting seat, while the moving seat at the top moves obliquely upward. During this process, the rocker arm rotates counterclockwise under the traction of the moving seat, driving the second rotating shaft and the third gear to rotate synchronously. The third gear engages with the second gear, driving the first rotating shaft to rotate clockwise under the support of the load-bearing seat. Finally, the placement plate drives the wafer to flip 180 degrees to complete the flipping process. The design of driving the wafer flipping by the extension and contraction of the cylinder reduces the manufacturing cost. At the same time, the engagement of the third gear with the second gear can enlarge the stroke. The cylinder can achieve a 180-degree flip by a small extension and contraction distance. Therefore, the cylinder selection conditions are more relaxed, which is convenient for further cost saving.

[0014] 2. The wafer is placed between the circular structure formed by the claws on different sliding bars on the placement plate. The placement plate support motor drives the first gear to rotate and engages the two racks at the same time, driving the two sliding bars to slide in different directions along the guide rails. During this process, the claws on the front and back sides of the wafer close inward to clamp the wafer, completing the wafer fixing process. The design of the first gear engaging the two racks to move at the same time facilitates the simultaneous clamping and fixing of wafers in batches, thereby increasing the operating speed. At the same time, it can fix wafers of different sizes, making the device more versatile. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
