[0030] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with all the accompanying drawings.
[0031] The embodiment of the present application discloses a spring-loaded plate flipping device.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 A spring carrier plate flipping device comprises a flipping mechanism and a transport platform 1. The transport platform 1 is used to place the spring carrier plate to be processed, and the flipping mechanism is responsible for flipping the spring carrier plate.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 A first processing table 12 and a second processing table 13 are sequentially arranged on the upper end surface of the transport platform 1 along the moving direction of the transport platform 1. A plurality of insertion rods 121 are evenly arranged on the first processing table 12 along the circumferential direction. The spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the insertion rod 121. After the first carrier plate and the spring are riveted together by a hydraulic press, the transport platform 1 transports the spring carrier plate to be processed to the flip mechanism.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 The lower end surface of the transport platform 1 is provided with two transport rails 11, and the transport platform 1 can slide along the extension direction of these rails. This not only facilitates the movement of the transport platform 1, but also improves the flexibility of the entire device. The lower end surface of the transport rail 11 is also equipped with a plurality of legs 111 for firmly supporting the transport rail 11 and ensuring the overall stability of the device.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In order to more accurately position the transport platform 1, a positioning device 5 is also provided between the two transport rails 11. The positioning device 5 includes a connecting plate 51, a positioning cylinder 52 and a positioning block 53. The connecting plate 51 is firmly connected between the two transport rails 11, and the positioning cylinder 52 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 51. The output end of the positioning cylinder 52 is rotatably connected to the positioning block 53, and at the same time, the positioning block 53 is also rotatably connected to the cylinder body of the positioning cylinder 52 through a connecting rod 54. Such a design enables the positioning cylinder 52 to drive the positioning block 53 to move up and down when in action, thereby realizing accurate positioning of the transport platform 1.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a second lifting cylinder 8 is provided under the transport platform 1 for driving the transport platform 1 to rise and fall, and the second lifting cylinder 8 is located between the two transport rails 11, and a top plate 81 for contacting the transport platform 1 is provided at the output end of the second lifting cylinder 8. After the transport platform 1 reaches the flip mechanism and is blocked by the positioning device 5, the second lifting cylinder 8 is used to lift the transport platform 1 so that the transport platform 1 is separated from the transport rail 11, and the conveying structure on the transport rail 11 continues to operate, which can reduce the vibration of the transport platform 1 caused by the movement of the conveying structure, and at the same time does not affect the movement of the transport platform 1 in other processes on the transport rail 11.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 The flipping mechanism includes a clamping cylinder 2, a rotating cylinder 3 and a first lifting cylinder 4. The clamping cylinder 2 is a bidirectional telescopic cylinder, and a clamping plate 21 is equipped on the output end of the clamping cylinder 2. The clamping plate 21 is used to clamp the spring carrier to ensure the stability of the spring carrier during the flipping process. In order to protect the spring carrier and avoid possible damage, a protective pad 22 is specially provided on the clamping plate 21. The protective pad 22 is made of rubber and can be in close contact with the spring carrier during the flipping process, thereby effectively protecting the spring carrier from damage.
[0038] Reference Figure 1 , the side of the clamping cylinder 2 away from the clamping plate 21 is fixedly connected to the rotating end of the rotating cylinder 3, so that the rotating cylinder 3 can drive the clamping cylinder 2 to rotate. The output end of the first lifting cylinder 4 that moves in the vertical direction is provided with a lifting plate 41, and a slide rail 42 is provided on the side of the first lifting cylinder 4 close to the rotating cylinder 3, and a slide groove matched with the slide rail 42 is provided on the lifting plate 41. Such a design enables the lifting plate 41 to slide stably along the slide rail 42 during the lifting process, thereby improving the stability of the flipping operation. The side of the rotating cylinder 3 away from the clamping cylinder 2 is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 41. Such a design enables the first lifting cylinder 4 to control the lifting and lowering of the rotating cylinder 3, thereby realizing the flipping of the spring carrier.
[0039] Reference Figure 1, a moving seat 6 is installed on the side of the first lifting cylinder 4 away from the rotating cylinder 3. This moving seat 6 can be slidably connected with the fixed plate 7 along the moving direction of the transport platform 1. In order to achieve this function, a lead screw 61 is threadedly connected to the moving seat 6 along the moving direction of the transport platform 1. One end of this lead screw 61 is equipped with a driving member 72, such as a motor, for driving the rotation of the lead screw 61. The two ends of the lead screw 61 are rotatably connected with the fixed plate 7. When the driving member 72 drives the lead screw 61 to rotate, the moving seat 6 will move along the axial direction of the lead screw 61, thereby realizing the movement of the spring carrier after the flip. A limiting plate 71 is also provided on the fixed plate 7, and a limiting strip 711 is provided on the limiting plate 71. At the same time, a limiting groove adapted to the limiting strip 711 is opened on the lower end surface of the moving seat 6. Such a design enables the moving seat 6 to be guided by the limiting strip 711 during the movement process, thereby improving the stability of its movement.
[0040] The implementation principle of a spring carrier flipping device in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: the transport platform 1 transports the spring carrier to be processed to the flipping mechanism, and the second lifting cylinder 8 lifts the transport platform 1, and the transport platform 1 is separated from the transport track 11. Subsequently, the clamping cylinder 2 is actuated to firmly clamp the spring carrier on the first processing table 12 through the clamping plate 21. Next, the first lifting cylinder 4 drives the lifting plate 41 to rise, driving the entire rotating cylinder 3 and the clamping cylinder 2 to rise. In this process, the rotating cylinder 3 will drive the clamping cylinder 2 and the spring carrier to rotate by degrees, thereby completing the flipping of the spring carrier; the first lifting cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the moving seat 6, and the driving member 72 drives the lead screw 61 to rotate, driving the moving seat 6 to move from the position of the first processing table 12 to the position of the second processing table 13. The first lifting cylinder 4 drives the lifting plate 41 to descend, driving the entire rotating cylinder 3 and the clamping cylinder 2 to descend, and the clamping cylinder 2 is actuated to release the clamping plate 21, and place the spring carrier on the second processing table 13. The whole process is highly automated, which improves the turnover efficiency, reduces the demand for manpower, and reduces production costs.
[0041] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
