However, in the related art, the production line for workpieces such as water-cooling units often relies on manual turning. The reliability of manual operation is low, and it seriously wastes manpower, which also leads to low production efficiency of the water-cooling unit. Therefore, how to improve the reliability of the turning operation of the workpiece and the turning production efficiency has become a problem to be solved urgently. Utility Model Content

For example, when the driving component drives the two flipping supports to rotate in a direction close to each other, the process of transferring the workpiece to be flipped from one of the flipping supports to the other flipping support can be realized. In this way, the process of automatic flipping of the workpiece to be flipped by the flipping component can be realized, which is beneficial to improving production efficiency, saving manpower, and improving the reliability of the flipping operation of the workpiece to be flipped.
[0006] In some embodiments, the flip support body includes a flip bracket plate and a limit support, the flip bracket plate has the connecting end and the free end, the limit support is arranged at the connecting end, and the flip bracket plate and the limit support are used to jointly limit and support the workpiece to be flipped.
[0007] In the above technical solution, the flip support frame and the limit support jointly limit and support the workpiece to be flipped. During the rotation of the flip support body along the rotation axis, the workpiece to be flipped can be more stably maintained on the flip support body, preventing the workpiece to be flipped from moving relative to the flip support body, thereby reducing the possibility of the workpiece to be flipped over or falling during the rotation of the flip support body, thereby improving the reliability of the flipping operation of the workpiece to be flipped.
[0008] In some embodiments, the flip support further comprises an auxiliary flipping member, which is movably mounted on the flip bracket plate, and is used to push the workpiece to be flipped from one of the flip supports to another of the flip supports.
[0009] In the above technical solution, the auxiliary flip plate is movably installed on the flip bracket plate. When the auxiliary flip plate moves relative to the flip bracket plate, it can exert a certain thrust on the workpiece to be flipped, so that the workpiece to be flipped can be transferred more smoothly from one flip support body to another flip support body.
[0010] In some embodiments, the auxiliary flip member is rotatable relative to the flip bracket plate.
[0011] In the above technical solution, the auxiliary flipping member is rotatable relative to the flipping bracket plate, and the spatial area swept by the auxiliary flipping member during the rotation relative to the flipping bracket plate is larger, so that the workpiece to be flipped can be pushed to a farther distance.

[0018] In some embodiments, the distance between the connection ends of the two flip supports in the first direction is adjustable.
[0019] In the above technical solution, the spacing between the connecting ends of the two flipping supports in the first direction is adjustable. When faced with workpieces to be flipped of different sizes or specifications, the spacing between the connecting ends of the two flipping supports in the first direction can be adjusted so that the flipping device can better adapt to workpieces to be flipped of different sizes.
[0020] In some embodiments, the mounting frame includes a mounting frame body and a mounting support, the mounting support is arranged on the top of the mounting frame body, there are two mounting supports and they are arranged along the first direction, the two flip support bodies correspond to the two mounting supports respectively, the connecting end of each flip support body is rotatably connected to the corresponding mounting support, and the spacing between the two mounting supports in the first direction is adjustable; each mounting support has a locked state and an unlocked state, when the mounting support is in the locked state, the mounting support is fixed relative to the mounting frame body, and when the mounting support is in the unlocked state, the mounting support is movable along the first direction.

When the mounting support is in the locked state, the mounting support is fixed relative to the mounting frame body. At this time, the mounting support can provide a stable support point for the flipping support body to ensure the stability of the flipping support body during the flipping process; when the mounting support is in the unlocked state, the mounting support can move along the first direction, and then the distance between the two mounting supports in the first direction can be adjusted, so that the distance between the two flipping supports in the first direction can be flexibly changed according to workpieces of different sizes to be flipped.
[0022] In some embodiments, each of the mounting brackets includes a mounting shaft and a bracket body, the bracket body is fixed at both ends of the mounting shaft along the second direction, and the connecting end is rotatably connected to the mounting shaft; two groups of mounting hole groups are provided on the mounting frame body, the two groups of mounting hole groups are arranged at intervals along the second direction, each group of mounting hole groups includes a plurality of mounting holes arranged at intervals along the first direction, the two bracket bodies of each mounting bracket correspond to the two mounting hole groups respectively, and the mounting holes are used to connect and fix the bracket body; wherein, when the mounting bracket is in the locked state, the bracket body is connected to the mounting hole, and when the mounting bracket is in the unlocked state, the bracket body and the mounting hole are released from the connection relationship.

[0025] In the above technical solution, a sliding groove extending along the first direction is formed through the top of the mounting frame body, and the two support bodies of each mounting support are respectively accommodated in the sliding groove. When the mounting support is in an unlocked state, the sliding groove can play a guiding and limiting role on the sliding trajectory of the support body, ensuring that the relative movement between the support body and the sliding groove is along the first direction, preventing the support body from disengaging from the sliding groove during the sliding process.

When the lifting frame moves in the up and down directions under the action of the driving member, the power of the driving member can be effectively transmitted to the flipping support body through the first transmission member, and then converted into rotation of the flipping support body relative to the mounting frame, thereby realizing the flipping operation of the workpiece to be flipped; and, the connection position of the first transmission member and the flipping support body is between the connection end and the free end, so that the force distribution of the flipping support body can be more uniform, thereby making the flipping support body more stable when rotating relative to the mounting frame, reducing the possibility of overturning or falling of the workpiece to be flipped due to uneven force.
[0028] In some embodiments, each of the flipping supports corresponds to two of the first transmission members, and the two of the first transmission members corresponding to each of the flipping supports are arranged at intervals along the second direction.
[0029] In the above technical solution, each flip support body has two corresponding first transmission members, and the two first transmission members corresponding to each flip support body are arranged at intervals along the second direction. This can make the force on the flip support body in the second direction more balanced, and make the flip support body more stable when rotating relative to the mounting frame, thereby improving the reliability of the flip support body during rotation relative to the mounting frame.

[0075] In the related art, in the field of production and processing, some workpieces need to be turned over, for example, in the production process of a water-cooling unit, the water-cooling unit needs to be turned over. However, in the related art, the production line for workpieces such as water-cooling units often relies on manual turning, which has low reliability and serious waste of manpower, and also leads to low production efficiency of the water-cooling unit.

[0077] In the above-mentioned flipping device, two flipping supports are installed on the mounting frame and arranged along the first direction, each flipping support has a connecting end and a free end relatively arranged, the connecting end is rotatably connected to the mounting frame, and a driving component is installed on the mounting frame, the driving component is used to drive the two flipping supports to move, so that the automatic rotation of each flipping support can be realized. For example, when the driving component drives the two flipping supports to rotate in a direction close to each other, the process of transferring the workpiece to be flipped from one of the flipping supports to the other flipping support can be realized. In this way, the process of automatic flipping of the workpiece to be flipped by the flipping component can be realized, which is beneficial to improving production efficiency, saving manpower, and improving the reliability of the flipping operation of the workpiece to be flipped.
[0078] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 14 The flipping device 100 according to the embodiment of the present application is described.
[0079] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4In the first aspect, the present application provides a flipping device 100, which includes a mounting frame 1, a flipping assembly 2 and a driving assembly 3. The flipping assembly 2 is mounted on the mounting frame 1 and includes two flipping supports 21, which are arranged along a first direction. Each flipping support 21 has a connecting end 211 and a free end 212 that are relatively arranged. The connecting end 211 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 1, and the rotation axis of the flipping support 21 extends along a second direction. The second direction, the first direction, and the up and down directions intersect each other. The flipping assembly 2 is used to transfer a workpiece 4 to be flipped from one of the flipping supports 21 to another flipping support 21. The driving assembly 3 is mounted on the mounting frame 1 and the driving assembly 3 is connected to the flipping support 21 to drive the two flipping supports 21 to move.
[0080] For example, the first direction may refer to the X direction in the drawings, the second direction may refer to the Y direction in the drawings, and the up and down directions may refer to the Z direction in the drawings.
[0081] The mounting frame 1 can play a role in fixing and supporting the flipping assembly 2 and the driving assembly 3. Each flipping support 21 has a connecting end 211 and a free end 212 arranged opposite to each other, and is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 1 through the connecting end 211, so that the flipping support 21 can be rotated along a predetermined track and direction, thereby realizing the process of transferring the workpiece 4 to be flipped from one flipping support 21 to another flipping support 21 along a first direction. The driving assembly 3 can provide power for the movement of the flipping support 21, so that the flipping support 21 can be automatically flipped, which is conducive to improving production efficiency, saving manpower, and improving the reliability of the flipping operation of the workpiece 4 to be flipped.
[0082] For example, when the two flip supports 21 move to the open position, the two flip supports 21 move toward each other, and when the two flip supports 21 move to the closed position, the two flip supports 21 move toward each other.
[0083] The open position of the flip support 21 includes a maximum open position, and the maximum open position refers to the position of the flip support 21 after the flip support 21 rotates to a maximum angle along a set path.
[0084] For example, the transfer process of the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be: placing the workpiece 4 to be flipped on one of the flipping supports 21, and then the driving component 3 drives the two flipping supports 21 to rotate along the corresponding rotation axis toward each other, so that the workpiece 4 to be flipped on one of the flipping supports 21 is close to the other flipping support 21, thereby facilitating the transfer of the workpiece 4 to be flipped from one of the flipping supports 21 to the other flipping support 21. When the workpiece 4 to be flipped is transferred to the other flipping support 21, the driving component 3 drives the two flipping supports 21 to rotate along the corresponding rotation axis toward the direction away from each other, thereby completing the flipping process of the workpiece 4 to be flipped.
[0085] In the above technical solution, two flipping supports 21 are installed on the mounting frame 1, each flipping support 21 has a connecting end 211 and a free end 212 arranged opposite to each other, the connecting end 211 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 1, and the driving component 3 is installed on the mounting frame 1, the driving component 3 is used to drive the two flipping supports 21 to move, so that the automatic rotation of each flipping support 21 can be achieved. For example, when the driving component 3 drives the two flipping supports 21 to rotate in a direction close to each other, the process of transferring the workpiece 4 to be flipped from one of the flipping supports 21 to the other flipping support 21 can be achieved. In this way, the process of automatically flipping the workpiece 4 to be flipped by the flipping component 2 can be achieved, which is beneficial to improving production efficiency, saving manpower, and improving the reliability of the flipping operation of the workpiece 4 to be flipped.
[0086] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 In some embodiments, the flip support body 21 includes a flip bracket plate 213 and a limiting support 214, the flip bracket plate 213 has a connecting end 211 and a free end 212, the limiting support 214 is arranged at the connecting end 211, and the flip bracket plate 213 and the limiting support 214 are used to jointly limit and support the workpiece 4 to be flipped.
[0087] When the workpiece 4 to be flipped is placed on the flip support 21, the flip support 21 can support the workpiece 4 to be flipped, and the position limiting support 214 can provide support and position limiting for the workpiece 4 to be flipped, so that the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be more stably held on the flip support 21, reducing or avoiding the possibility of the workpiece 4 to be flipped moving on the flip support 21. The flip support frame 15 and the position limiting support 214 can jointly limit and support the workpiece 4 to be flipped, so that the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be more stably held on the flip support 21 during the rotation of the flip support 21 along the rotation axis, preventing the workpiece 4 to be flipped from moving relative to the flip support 21, thereby reducing the possibility of the workpiece 4 to be flipped tipping over or falling during the rotation of the flip support 21, so as to improve the reliability of the flipping operation of the workpiece 4 to be flipped.
[0088] In the above technical solution, the flipping support frame 15 and the limiting support 214 jointly limit and support the workpiece 4 to be flipped. During the rotation of the flipping support 21 along the rotation axis, the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be more stably maintained on the flipping support 21, and the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be prevented from moving relative to the flipping support 21, thereby reducing the possibility of the workpiece 4 to be flipped over or falling during the rotation of the flipping support 21, so as to improve the reliability of the flipping operation of the workpiece 4 to be flipped.
[0089] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the flip support 21 also includes an auxiliary flip member 215, which is movably mounted on the flip bracket plate 213, and is used to push the workpiece 4 to be flipped from one flip support 21 to another flip support 21.
[0090] The flip bracket plate 213 can fix and support the auxiliary flip member 215. The auxiliary flip plate can be movably installed on the flip bracket plate 213. When the auxiliary flip plate moves relative to the flip bracket plate 213, it can exert a certain thrust on the workpiece 4 to be flipped, so that the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be transferred more smoothly from one of the flip supports 21 to another flip support 21, making the entire flipping process of the workpiece 4 to be flipped smoother, for example, it can reduce the jamming situation.
[0091] In the above technical solution, the auxiliary flip plate is movably installed on the flip bracket plate 213. When the auxiliary flip plate moves relative to the flip bracket plate 213, it can exert a certain thrust on the workpiece 4 to be flipped, so that the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be transferred more smoothly from one flip support body 21 to another flip support body 21.
[0092] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the auxiliary flip member 215 is rotatable relative to the flip bracket plate 213 .
[0093] The auxiliary flipping member 215 moves by rotating, and the spatial area swept by the auxiliary flipping member 215 relative to the flip bracket plate 213 during rotation is larger, so that the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be pushed to a farther distance. If the two flipping supports 21 move to the maximum open position, for example, there is an assembly error between the two flipping supports 21 or the extension length of the workpiece 4 to be flipped along the first direction is too large, resulting in a certain distance between the two flipping supports 21, the auxiliary flipping member 215 can be rotated relative to the flip bracket plate 213, which can also ensure that the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be transferred from one of the flipping supports 21 to the other flipping support 21.
[0094] In the above technical solution, the auxiliary flipping member 215 is rotatable relative to the flipping bracket plate 213, and the space area swept by the auxiliary flipping member 215 during the rotation relative to the flipping bracket plate 213 is larger, so that the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be pushed to a farther distance. Even when there is a certain distance between the two flipping supports 21, it can also ensure that the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be transferred from one of the flipping supports 21 to the other flipping support 21.
[0095] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the auxiliary flip member 215 has a storage position, in which the auxiliary flip member 215 is attached to the flip bracket plate 213 .
[0096] In the storage position, the auxiliary flip member 215 is close to the flip bracket plate 213, which can reduce the occupation of the external space of the flip bracket plate 213, making the overall structure of the flip support frame 15 and the auxiliary flip member 215 more compact.
[0097] In the above technical solution, by placing the auxiliary flip member 215 against the flip bracket plate 213 in the storage position, the external space occupied by the flip bracket plate 213 can be reduced, making the overall structure of the flip support frame 15 and the auxiliary flip member 215 more compact.
[0098] Reference Figure 5-Figure 7 In some embodiments, the flip bracket plate 213 further includes an auxiliary driving mechanism, which is disposed on the flip bracket plate 213 and connected to the auxiliary flip member 215 to drive the auxiliary flip member 215 to move.
[0099] The flip bracket plate 213 can provide support and fixation for the auxiliary driving mechanism, and the auxiliary driving mechanism can provide power for the auxiliary flipping member 215 to drive the auxiliary flipping member 215 to move according to a predetermined trajectory and direction, thereby realizing the process in which the auxiliary flipping member 215 pushes the workpiece 4 to be flipped from one of the flipping supports 21 to another flipping support 21.
[0100] For example, the transfer process of the workpiece 4 to be flipped can be: placing the workpiece 4 to be flipped on one of the flipping supports 21, and then the driving component 3 drives the two flipping supports 21 to rotate along the corresponding rotation axis toward each other, so that the workpiece 4 to be flipped on one of the flipping supports 21 is close to the other flipping support 21, and the auxiliary flipping drive mechanism drives the auxiliary flipping member 215 to rotate relative to the flipping bracket plate 213, so as to push the workpiece 4 to be flipped from one of the flipping supports 21 to the other flipping support 21. When the workpiece 4 to be flipped is transferred to the other flipping support 21, the driving component 3 drives the two flipping supports 21 to rotate along the corresponding rotation axis toward the direction away from each other, thereby completing the flipping process of the workpiece 4 to be flipped.
[0101] In the above technical solution, the auxiliary driving mechanism is connected to the auxiliary flipping member 215 to drive the auxiliary flipping member 215 to move, and the auxiliary flipping member 215 can be driven to move according to a predetermined trajectory and direction, thereby realizing the process in which the auxiliary flipping member 215 pushes the workpiece 4 to be flipped from one of the flipping supports 21 to another flipping support 21.
[0102] Reference Figure 5-Figure 7 In some embodiments, the side of the flip bracket plate 213 used to support the workpiece 4 to be flipped is the supporting side 216, the side of the flip bracket plate 213 away from the supporting side 216 is the back side 217, and the auxiliary driving mechanism is arranged on the back side 217 of the flip bracket plate 213.
[0103] The auxiliary drive mechanism is arranged on the back side 217 of the flip bracket plate 213, which can fully utilize the space on the back side 217 of the flip bracket plate 213, so that the overall structure of the auxiliary drive mechanism and the flip bracket plate 213 is compact, and the auxiliary drive mechanism is prevented from interfering with the workpiece 4 to be flipped on the supporting side 216.
[0104] In the above technical solution, by arranging the auxiliary driving mechanism on the back side 217 of the flip bracket plate 213, the space on the back side 217 of the flip bracket plate 213 can be fully utilized, so that the overall structure of the auxiliary driving mechanism and the flip bracket plate 213 is compact, and the auxiliary driving mechanism is prevented from interfering with the workpiece 4 to be flipped on the supporting side 216.

[0106] The distance between the connection ends 211 of the two flipping supports 21 in the first direction is adjustable, and this adjustability can improve the overall adaptability of the flipping device 100. When facing workpieces 4 to be flipped of different sizes or specifications, the distance between the connection ends 211 of the two flipping supports 21 in the first direction can be adjusted to enable the flipping device 100 to better adapt to workpieces 4 to be flipped of different sizes, thereby improving the flipping device 100's processing capability for diversified workpieces 4 to be flipped, and reducing or avoiding the problem that the workpiece 4 to be flipped cannot be flipped by the flipping device 100 due to the size change of the workpiece 4 to be flipped.
[0107] In the above technical solution, the spacing between the connecting ends 211 of the two flipping supports 21 in the first direction is adjustable. When faced with workpieces 4 to be flipped of different sizes or specifications, the spacing between the connecting ends 211 of the two flipping supports 21 in the first direction can be adjusted to enable the flipping device 100 to better adapt to workpieces 4 to be flipped of different sizes.

When the mounting support 12 is in the locked state, the mounting support 12 is fixed relative to the mounting frame body 11, and when the mounting support 12 is in the unlocked state, the mounting support 12 is movable along the first direction.

[0110] Each mounting support 12 has a locked state and an unlocked state. When the mounting support 12 is in the locked state, the mounting support 12 is fixed relative to the mounting frame body 11, that is, the mounting support 12 will not move relative to the mounting frame body 11, so that the mounting support 12 can provide a stable support point for the flip support 21 to ensure the stability of the flip support 21 during the flipping process. When the mounting support 12 is in the unlocked state, the mounting support 12 can move along the first direction, and then the distance between the two mounting supports 12 in the first direction can be adjusted, so that the distance between the two flip supports 21 in the first direction can be flexibly changed according to the different sizes of the workpieces 4 to be flipped, so as to adapt to the different sizes or specifications of the workpieces 4 to be flipped.
[0111] In the above technical solution, there are two mounting supports 12 and the two mounting supports 12 are arranged along the first direction, the two flipping supports 21 correspond to the two mounting supports 12 respectively, the connecting end 211 of each flipping support 21 is rotatably connected to the corresponding mounting support 12, and each mounting support 12 has a locked state and an unlocked state.

[0113] The mounting shaft 121 can support and fix the connection end 211. The connection end 211 can be rotatably connected to the mounting shaft 121, which can make the rotatable connection between the flip support 21 and the mounting frame 1 more convenient. The mounting hole 112 can facilitate the support body 122 to be accommodated therein, so that the assembly of the mounting support 12 on the mounting frame body 11 is more convenient, and the overall structure of the mounting support 12 and the mounting frame body 11 can be made more compact. The support body 122 is fixed to the two ends of the mounting shaft 121 along the second direction, and the two groups of mounting hole groups 111 are arranged at intervals along the second direction, so that the support bodies 122 arranged at intervals at both ends along the second direction correspond to the two groups of mounting hole groups 111 respectively.
[0114] When the mounting bracket 12 is in the locked state, the mounting bracket 12 can be more stably maintained in the locked state by connecting the bracket body 122 to the mounting hole 112 .
[0115] When the mounting support 12 is in an unlocked state, the support body 122 is disconnected from the mounting hole 112, so that the mounting support 12 can be easily moved in the first direction relative to the mounting frame body 11 to adjust the distance between the two mounting supports 12 in the first direction, thereby adjusting the distance between the two flipping supports 21 in the first direction to accommodate workpieces 4 of different sizes to be flipped.
[0116] In the above technical solution, the mounting support 12 includes a support body 122, and a mounting hole 112 is provided on the mounting frame body 11. When the mounting bracket is in a locked state, the support body 122 is connected to the mounting hole 112, so that the mounting support 12 can be more stably maintained in the locked state; when the mounting support 12 is in an unlocked state, the support body 122 and the mounting hole 112 are released from the connection relationship, which can facilitate the movement of the mounting support 12 relative to the mounting frame body 11 along the first direction to adjust the distance between the two mounting supports 12 in the first direction, thereby adjusting the distance between the two flipping supports 21 in the first direction to accommodate workpieces 4 to be flipped of different sizes.

When the mounting support 12 is in an unlocked state, the sliding groove 113 can guide and limit the sliding trajectory of the support body 122, ensuring that the relative movement between the support body 122 and the sliding groove 113 is along the first direction, preventing the support body 122 from disengaging from the sliding groove 113 during the sliding process.
[0120] Reference Figure 11-Figure 14 In some embodiments, the driving assembly 3 includes a driving member 31, a lifting frame 32 and a first transmission member 33. The driving member 31 is connected to the lifting frame 32 to drive the lifting frame 32 to move in the up and down directions. Each flip support 21 is connected to the lifting frame 32 through a corresponding first transmission member 33. One end of the first transmission member 33 is rotatably connected to the lifting frame 32 and the other end of the transmission member is rotatably connected to the flip support 21. The connection position of the first transmission member 33 and the flip support 21 is located between the connection end 211 and the free end 212.
[0121] The driving member 31 can provide power for the lifting frame 32 to drive the lifting frame 32 to move in the up-down direction. Each flip support 21 is connected to the lifting frame 32 through the corresponding first transmission member 33, one end of the first transmission member 33 is rotatably connected to the lifting frame 32, and the other end of the first transmission member 33 is rotatably connected to the flip support 21. When the lifting frame 32 moves in the up-down direction under the action of the driving member 31, the power of the driving member 31 can be effectively transmitted to the flip support 21 through the first transmission member 33, and then converted into the rotation of the flip support 21 relative to the mounting frame 1, so as to realize the flipping operation of the workpiece 4 to be flipped.
[0122] For example, when the lifting frame 32 moves in the up-down direction, the lifting frame 32 drives the first transmission member 33 to move in the up-down direction, and the first transmission member 33 moves in the up-down direction to drive the flip support 21 to rotate relative to the mounting frame body 11 .
[0123] Furthermore, by having the connection position between the first transmission member 33 and the flipping support body 21 be between the connection end 211 and the free end 212, the force distribution of the flipping support body 21 can be made more uniform, thereby making the flipping support body 21 more stable when rotating relative to the mounting frame 1, thereby reducing the possibility of the workpiece 4 to be flipped over or falling due to uneven force.
[0124] In the above technical solution, each flipping support body 21 is connected to the lifting frame 32 through the corresponding first transmission member 33, one end of the first transmission member 33 is rotatably connected to the lifting frame 32, and the other end of the first transmission member 33 is rotatably connected to the flipping support body 21. When the lifting frame 32 moves in the up and down directions under the action of the driving member 31, the power of the driving member 31 can be effectively transmitted to the flipping support body 21 through the first transmission member 33, and then converted into a rotation of the flipping support body 21 relative to the mounting frame 1, thereby realizing the flipping operation of the workpiece 4 to be flipped; and, the connection position of the first transmission member 33 and the flipping support body 21 is between the connecting end 211 and the free end 212, so that the force distribution of the flipping support body 21 can be more uniform, so that the flipping support body 21 is more stable when rotating relative to the mounting frame 1, reducing the possibility of overturning or falling of the workpiece 4 to be flipped due to uneven force.

[0126] Each flip support body 21 has two corresponding first transmission members 33, and the two first transmission members 33 corresponding to each flip support body 21 are arranged at intervals along the second direction, so that the force on the flip support body 21 in the second direction can be more balanced, and the flip support body 21 can be more stable when rotating relative to the mounting frame 1, effectively avoiding the problem of uneven force on the flip support body 21 due to single-point force on the flip support body 21, thereby improving the reliability of the flip support body 21 during the rotation relative to the mounting frame 1.
[0127] In the above technical solution, each flip support body 21 has two corresponding first transmission members 33, and the two first transmission members 33 corresponding to each flip support body 21 are arranged at intervals along the second direction. This can make the force on the flip support body 21 in the second direction more balanced, and make the flip support body 21 more stable when rotating relative to the mounting frame 1, thereby improving the reliability of the flip support body 21 during the rotation relative to the mounting frame 1.

[0129] The base 13 can fix and support the support frame 15, and the support frame 15 can fix and support the support platform 14. The connecting end 211 of the flip support body 21 is rotatably connected to the support platform 14, and the support platform 14 can provide a reliable fulcrum for the rotation of the flip support body 21.
[0130] Since the lifting frame 32 is located below the support platform 14 and above the base 13, the lifting frame 32, the first transmission member 33, the flip support body 21 and the support platform 14 can together form a connecting rod mechanism. When the lifting frame 32 moves in the up and down directions driven by the driving member 31, the first transmission member 33 can drive the flip support body 21 to move. Since the connecting end 211 of the flip support body 21 is rotatably connected to the support platform 14, the flip support body 21 can rotate relative to the support platform 14.

[0133] The two driving members 31 respectively drive the moving ends of the two first connecting rods 341 to slide relative to the base 13 along the first direction. The rotation of the two first connecting rods 341 can drive the two second connecting rods 342 to rotate, so that the moving ends of the two second connecting rods 342 slide relative to the lifting frame 32 along the first direction. In this way, the distances between the moving ends and the fixed ends of the two first connecting rods 341 and the two second connecting rods 342 along the first direction can be changed, and then the height changes of the two first connecting rods 341 and the two second connecting rods 342 in the up and down directions can be realized, thereby completing the process of the driving member 31 driving the lifting frame 32 to move in the up and down directions via the second transmission member 34.
