In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a turning tool.

[0035] First, the flip tool includes a plurality of first support components 2 for carrying the workpiece to be processed, each of which limits the workpiece to be processed in at least two directions. Taking the case where the workpiece to be processed is not flipped as an example, the first support component 2 has a length direction, a width direction and a height direction. The workpiece to be processed can be limited in all three directions, or only in the length direction and the width direction, or only in the length direction and the height direction, or only in the width direction and the height direction. When at least two directions of the workpiece to be processed are limited, the first support component 2 can drive the workpiece to be processed to rotate; the plurality of first support components 2 are respectively arranged on both sides of the workpiece to be processed to respectively drive the workpiece to be processed to rotate forward or reversely, and can realize the switching of the workpiece to be processed between three angles, namely 0 degrees to 90 degrees and 0 degrees to -90 degrees. It should be noted that the workpiece to be processed can also be flipped 45 degrees or -45 degrees. The flip tool can flip the workpiece to be processed to any angle in the range of 0 degrees to 90 degrees and 0 degrees to -90 degrees according to actual needs. In addition, a plurality specifically refers to greater than or equal to 2, that is, a first supporting assembly 2 can be provided on each side of the workpiece to be processed.

[0036] It can be seen that the turning tool provided in the embodiment of the utility model can limit the workpiece to be processed by the first support component 2, thereby fixing the workpiece to be processed, facilitating welding and other operations on the workpiece to be processed, and can provide stable support for the workpiece to be processed, and can reduce safety hazards when the workpiece to be processed rotates. At the same time, the first support components 2 are respectively arranged on both sides of the workpiece to be processed, which can respectively drive the workpiece to be processed to rotate forward or reverse, so that the workpiece to be processed can be turned counterclockwise or clockwise, which can improve work efficiency.

[0037] During specific implementation, in the length direction of the flipping tooling, the first support assemblies 2 located on different sides of the workpiece to be processed are alternately arranged, that is, the first support assemblies 2 are not arranged in a mirror image, so as to avoid interference between the first support assemblies 2 arranged in a mirror image. At the same time, it can be avoided that in order to prevent interference between the first support assemblies 2, the first support assemblies 2 occupy a large space, making the entire equipment volume of the flipping tooling relatively large. It should be noted that when the number of first support assemblies 2 is greater than two, it is preferably arranged alternately, but it is not limited to this. As long as the interference between the first support assemblies 2 on both sides and the first support assemblies 2 on the same side can be avoided, the specific arrangement of the multiple first support assemblies 2 can be specifically designed by technical personnel in this field according to actual needs. It should also be noted that the length direction of the flipping tooling is parallel to the length direction of the workpiece to be processed. For details, see Figure 1The direction of the arrow m.

[0038] In a specific implementation, it also includes a second support assembly 3 that carries the workpiece together with the first support assembly 2, and the second support assembly 3 allows the workpiece to be processed to move at least along the length direction of the flip tool, so that the workpiece to be processed can be moved along its length direction, so that when the workpiece to be processed is placed on the flip tool, the position of the workpiece to be processed relative to the flip tool can be adjusted in its length direction, but it is not limited to this, and the workpiece to be processed can also move along the plane where the contact surface between the second support assembly 3 and the workpiece to be processed is located. The second support assembly 3 has the functions of supporting the workpiece to be processed and adjusting the position of the workpiece to be processed.

[0039] In specific implementation, the first support assembly 2 includes a support structure 21 and a first driving component 22, and the support structure 21 includes a first part 211 and a second part 212, wherein the first part 211 contacts the bottom plate of the workpiece to be processed; the second part 212 contacts the side plate of the workpiece to be processed, and the second part 212 is connected to the first driving component 22. The driving component can realize the automatic rotation of the first support assembly 2, and can control the rotation speed, so that the rotation is smoother and the structural stability is better. At the same time, the first part 211 and the second part 212 of the support structure 21 can limit the height and width respectively, that is, the cross-section of the support structure 21 along the width direction of the workpiece to be processed is L-shaped. When the workpiece to be processed is at a 0-degree position, the first part 211 abuts against the bottom plate of the workpiece to be processed; when the workpiece to be processed is at a 90-degree position, the second part 212 abuts against the side plate of the workpiece to be processed. At this time, the side plate is located at the bottom surface and the bottom plate is located at the side surface.

[0040] Optionally, in the above-mentioned flip tool, the first support assembly 2 also includes a base, and the first driving component 22 connects the base and the second part 212; and / or, it also includes a second driving component, the second driving component is connected to the base, and the second driving component drives the base to move along the width direction of the flip tool. The base provides stable support for the support structure 21 and the first driving component 22. It should be noted that the width direction of the flip tool is a direction perpendicular to the length direction of the flip tool, and the width direction of the flip tool is parallel to the width direction of the workpiece to be processed, see Figure 1 The direction of the arrow n.

[0041] In specific implementation, the first driving component 22 includes a hydraulic cylinder, and the two ends of the hydraulic cylinder are respectively connected to the base and the second part 212; but not limited to this, the specific structure of the first driving component 22 can be specifically designed by technical personnel in this field according to actual needs, and the support structure 21 is hinged to the base, so that when the first driving component 22 is working, the support structure 21 rotates relative to the base; and / or, the second driving component includes a transmission belt, and the base is located on the transmission belt, so that the base is driven by the transmission belt to move with the support structure 21 along the width direction of the flip tooling, but not limited to this, the second driving component can be a hydraulic cylinder or a servo motor cooperates with the guide rail to move, and the specific structure of the second driving component can be specifically designed by technical personnel in this field according to actual needs.

[0042] In specific implementation, the second support assembly 3 includes a base 31 and a rolling member 32, wherein the rolling member 32 is rotatably arranged on the base 31 and at least partially protrudes from the top surface of the base 31 so that the rolling member 32 can abut against the workpiece to be processed. The rolling member 32 can be cylindrical, rugby-shaped, or spherical. When it is cylindrical or rugby-shaped, the workpiece to be processed abutting against the rolling member 32 can be moved in one direction; when it is spherical, the workpiece to be processed abutting against the rolling member 32 can be moved in any direction within the plane where its abutting surface is located, but it is not limited thereto. The specific structure of the second support assembly 3 can be specifically designed by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0043] In specific implementation, the base 31 extends along the width direction of the turning tool, and a plurality of rolling elements 32 are provided on the base 31 and arranged along the width direction of the turning tool, and a stopper is provided at the extended end of the base 31. After the support structure 21 in the first support assembly 2 drives the workpiece to be processed to rotate 90 degrees, a side plate of the workpiece to be processed is located on the bottom surface and abuts against the rolling element 32. Under the action of the second driving component, the workpiece to be processed is translated along the length direction of the turning tool to abut against the stopper 4 in cooperation with the rolling action of the rolling element 32, so as to achieve the purpose of fixing the workpiece to be processed in a fixed position, which is convenient for subsequent operations such as welding on the workpiece to be processed.

[0044] During specific implementation, it also includes a limiting part 4, which is used to limit the position of the workpiece to be processed in the length direction of the flip tool. When the workpiece to be processed is at 0 degrees, 90 degrees or -90 degrees, the limiting part 4 can limit the workpiece to be processed in the defined direction. The limiting part 4 can be fixed at one end and movable at the other end along the length direction of the flip tool on both sides of the workpiece to be processed along the length direction of the flip tool, or both ends can be movable. The movable structure of the limiting part 4 can be a motor that cooperates with a guide rail to move, or a cylinder, or a transmission belt to achieve movement, but is not limited to this. The specific structure of the limiting part 4 can be specifically designed by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.

[0045] In a specific implementation, the limiting part 4 also includes a limiting sensor for controlling the movement of the limiting part 4. Compared with manual operation, the moving position has higher accuracy and a safer structure.

[0046] In a specific implementation, it also includes a reference platform 1, a groove is formed on the reference platform 1, and the first support assembly 2 is arranged in the groove. The support structure 21 is located above the top surface of the reference platform 1, and the base is located in the groove. Compared with the structure in which the first support assembly 2 is located above the top surface of the reference platform 1, the base is located in the groove, which can lower the center of gravity of the flip tool and improve the safety of the equipment.

[0047] In specific implementation, the subsequent welding operation can be manual welding or robot automatic welding. The specific welding form, welding equipment for completing the welding operation, automatic welding system, etc. can be specifically designed by technical personnel in this field according to actual needs.

[0048] In specific implementation, the process of beam flipping is as follows:

[0049] The workpiece to be processed is initially positioned at the approximate position of the turning tool, and the limiter 4 and the second support assembly 3 realize the positioning of the turning tool of the workpiece to be processed in the length direction;

[0050] The symmetrically distributed first support assembly 2 and the first driving component 22 are used to realize the positioning of the turning tool of the workpiece in the width direction, and the welding of the weld at the 0 degree position is realized after clamping;

[0051] Flip 90 degrees, the first support assembly 2 on one side is loosened, and the first support assembly 2 on the other side is flipped synchronously, and the workpiece to be processed is now surrounded by the support structure 21;

[0052] After flipping 90 degrees, the side plate of the workpiece to be processed falls on the rolling element 32, and the support structure 21 is translated along the width direction of the flipping tool under the action of the second driving component, so that the translation on the second support assembly 3 is finally close to the limiter to achieve positioning;

[0053] Similarly, the -90 degree flip is performed so that the first support assembly 2 on the other side drives the workpiece to be processed to flip.

[0054] Finally, it should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, the elements defined by the sentence "comprise a ..." do not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the elements.

[0055] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referenced to each other.

[0056] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention.
