[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiment of the utility model clearer, the technical solution in the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0030] When the gaskets are stacked, they face up, but after a period of time, they bend and deform, causing the equipment to frequently fail to alarm when folding the gaskets into the preset shape. In order to avoid the problem of gaskets bending and deformation, the gaskets of adjacent layers are usually stored in reverse. After the gaskets of adjacent layers are placed in reverse, the problem of gasket deformation is solved, but when the destacker separates the gaskets, it is unable to flip the reversed gaskets, and manual flipping is required, resulting in high labor intensity.

[0031] In order to solve or improve the problem of manual turning over and high labor intensity in the related art, a turning device and a packaging box production line are provided in the embodiments of the utility model.

[0032] Combine the following Figures 1 to 4 , describing the flipping device provided in an embodiment of the utility model.

[0033] Specifically, the turning device includes a lifting drive assembly 1 and two clamping units 2 .

[0034] Among them, the two clamping units 2 are arranged at intervals, and the two clamping units 2 both include a clamping member 201, a clamping drive assembly 202 and a rotating drive assembly 203. The clamping drive assembly 202 and the rotating drive assembly 203 are connected in transmission, that is, the clamping drive assembly 202 is connected to the driving end of the rotating drive assembly 203, or the rotating drive assembly 203 is connected to the driving end of the clamping drive assembly 202. One of the clamping drive assembly 202 and the rotating drive assembly 203 is connected to the clamping member 201, and the other is connected to the lifting drive assembly 1. For example, the clamping member 201, the clamping drive assembly 202, the rotating drive assembly 203 and the lifting drive assembly 1 are sequentially connected in transmission, and of course, the clamping drive assembly 202 and the rotating drive assembly 203 can also be interchanged. The clamping drive assembly 202 is used to drive the clamping member 201 to approach or move away from another clamping member 201. The rotating drive assembly 203 is used to drive the clamping member 201 to rotate.

[0035] Further, the driving path of the lifting drive assembly 1 intersects or is not in the same plane as the driving path of the clamping drive assembly 202. For example, the driving path of the lifting drive assembly 1 is perpendicular to the driving path of the clamping drive assembly 202. Specifically, the driving path of the lifting drive assembly 1 is arranged in the vertical direction, and the driving path of the clamping drive assembly 202 is arranged in the horizontal direction. The rotation axis of the rotating drive assembly 203 is parallel to or colinear with the driving path of the clamping drive assembly 202.

[0036] In this embodiment, when in use, the conveying path of the gasket passes through the space between the two clamping units 2, and the clamping drive assembly 202 drives the clamping member 201 to approach the other clamping member 201, so that the two clamping members 201 clamp the gasket together, and then the lifting drive assembly 1 drives the clamping unit 2 to rise, so that the gasket is lifted. Then, the rotating drive assembly 203 drives the gasket to rotate to complete the flipping of the gasket, and finally the lifting drive assembly 1 and the clamping drive assembly 202 are reset to complete the entire flipping process.

[0037] With such arrangement, the flipping device provided by the utility model can complete the flipping of the gasket through the cooperation of the lifting drive device and the clamping members 201, the clamping drive assembly 202 and the rotating drive assembly 203 of the two clamping units 2, thereby reducing manual operations and lowering labor intensity.

[0038] It can be understood that the turning device provided in the embodiment of the utility model is not limited to turning over the gasket. For example, the box body of the packaging box production line can be turned over.

[0039] Optionally, the clamping drive assembly 202 can be configured as a pneumatic cylinder, an oil cylinder or an electric cylinder. Optionally, the rotating drive assembly 203 can be configured as a rotating pneumatic cylinder or a motor.

[0040] In some embodiments provided by the present invention, the lifting drive assembly 1 includes a support 101 , a lifting base 102 and a first linear drive device 103 .

[0041] There are two supports 101, lifting seats 102 and first linear drive devices 103. The lifting seats 102 are slidably arranged on the supports 101 in one-to-one correspondence, and the first linear drive devices 103 are connected to the corresponding lifting seats 102 and the corresponding supports 101, and are used to drive the lifting seats 102 to slide. The clamping member 201 is connected to the corresponding lifting seat 102 through the clamping drive assembly 202 and the rotation drive assembly 203, that is, the clamping unit 2 is arranged on the corresponding lifting seat 102, that is, the clamping member 201, the clamping drive assembly 202, the rotation drive assembly 203, the lifting seat 102, the first linear drive device 103 and the support 101 are one-to-one corresponding and sequentially connected in transmission.

[0042] In this embodiment, on the one hand, the distance between the two supports 101 can be adjusted according to the size of the gasket or the size of the gasket conveying mechanism 3, so as to achieve the effect of adjusting the distance between the two clamping units 2, thereby making the flipping device have better adaptability and adjustability, and can adapt to products of different specifications. On the other hand, the two clamping units 2 are respectively driven by the corresponding first linear drive device 103, so that the force of the two clamping units 2 can be the same, so that the force on both sides of the gasket can be balanced, so as to facilitate better flipping of the gasket.

[0043] Optionally, the first linear drive device 103 is configured as a pneumatic cylinder, an oil cylinder or an electric cylinder.

[0044] In some embodiments provided by the present utility model, the support 101 includes a guard plate 1011. The guard plate 1011 is configured as a groove-shaped structure, and the grooves of the guard plates 1011 of the two supports 101 are arranged opposite to each other, and at least part of the lifting seat 102 and at least part of the first linear drive device 103 are arranged in the inner space of the corresponding guard plate 1011.

[0045] In this embodiment, the notches of the guard plates 1011 of the two supports 101 are arranged relative to each other, and at least a portion of the lifting seat 102 and at least a portion of the first linear drive device 103 are arranged in the inner space of the corresponding guard plates 1011. The guard plates 1011 can be used to protect the first linear drive device 103 and the lifting seat 102 to prevent the first linear drive device 103 and the lifting seat 102 from interfering with or colliding with objects outside the guard plates 1011 and being damaged, and to reduce the spread of noise and improve the working environment.

[0046] In some embodiments provided by the present invention, the support 101 further includes a pillar 1012, which is disposed on the inner side of the guard plate 1011 and connected to the guard plate 1011. For example, the guard plate 1011 can be connected to the pillar 1012 by welding or threaded fasteners. The first linear drive device 103 and the lifting seat 102 are both connected to the pillar 1012. Optionally, the pillar 1012 can be fixedly disposed, for example, the pillar 1012 can be connected to the ground.

[0047] In this embodiment, the support 101 is connected to the ground by providing the support 101, and the guard plate 1011 is conveniently installed and fixed by the support 1012. Since the support 1012 is fixedly provided, by connecting the first linear drive device 103 and the lifting seat 102 to the support 1012, the load on the first linear drive device 103 and the lifting seat 102 can be transmitted to the ground through the support 1012, thereby improving the stability of the first linear drive device 103 and the lifting seat 102, and the stability during operation.

[0048] Optionally, the bottom end of the support 1012 is provided with a flange protruding from the side wall of the support 1012, and the flange can be used to be connected to the ground through threaded fasteners.

[0049] Optionally, a guide structure 1014 is provided on the pillar 1012, and the lifting seat 102 is slidably matched with the guide structure 1014 on the support 101. For example, the guide structure 1014 can be set as a guide rail.

[0050] In some embodiments provided by the present invention, the support 101 further includes a connecting seat 1013, the number of the pillars 1012 is at least two, the connecting seat 1013 connects at least two pillars 1012, and optionally, the connecting seat 1013 is connected to the at least two pillars 1012 by welding or threaded fasteners. The first linear drive device 103 is connected to the connecting seat 1013.

[0051] In this embodiment, the connection base 1013 connects at least two pillars 1012, so that the connection base 1013 has good rigidity, thereby providing better support and fixing effects for the first linear drive device 103. In addition, the connection base 1013 is supported by at least two pillars 1012, so that the pillars 1012 can share the load with each other, reducing the problem of column shaking or bending due to stress concentration.

[0052] Optionally, the lifting base 102 may be slidably connected to at least two pillars 1012 , so that the lifting base 102 may be supported by at least two pillars 1012 , so that the lifting base 102 has better rigidity, smoother operation, and greater load-bearing capacity.

[0053] In some embodiments provided by the present invention, a plurality of positioning protrusions 2011 are provided on one side of the clamping member 201 facing the other clamping member 201 .

[0054] In this embodiment, by setting multiple positioning protrusions 2011 in the direction of the clamping member 201 toward another clamping member 201, the positioning protrusions 2011 can position the object when the clamping member 201 clamps the object, preventing the object from slipping or falling when the flipping device drives the object to move or flip.

[0055] In some embodiments provided by the utility model, the clamping member 201 is configured as a clamping plate, and a plurality of hooks are distributed on the edge of at least one side of the clamping plate, and the hooks form positioning protrusions 2011. For example, the hooks can be connected to the clamping plate by bonding, welding or threaded fasteners. Optionally, a plurality of hooks are distributed on the upper and lower edges of at least two clamping plates.

[0056] In this embodiment, the clamping member 201 is configured as a clamping plate, so that there is a larger contact area between the clamping member 201 and the object, so that the clamping member 201 has a better clamping effect on the object. By distributing a plurality of hooks on the edge of the clamping plate, the object can be positioned to prevent the object from slipping or falling during the process of the flipping device driving the object to move or flip. In addition, the hook is bent, one end of the hook is connected to the side wall of the clamping plate, and the other end extends in the direction of another clamping plate. In this way, the hook will not block the clamping surface of the clamping plate, so that the clamping plate can contact the object through the clamping surface, maintaining a larger contact area between the clamping plate and the object. It is understandable that the object can be a gasket or a box.

[0057] In some embodiments provided by the present invention, the flipping device further includes a conveying mechanism 3, and the conveying path of the conveying mechanism 3 passes through the space between the two clamping members 201. For example, the conveying mechanism 3 can be docked with the conveying mechanism 3 of other processes, or can also be shared with other processes. Optionally, the conveying mechanism 3 is arranged between the two supports 101.

[0058] In this embodiment, the object can be transported by the conveying mechanism 3, and when the conveying mechanism 3 transports the object to the position of the clamping unit 2, the clamping unit 2 and the lifting drive assembly 1 work together to flip the object on the conveying mechanism 3, and then the conveying mechanism 3 transports the flipped object to the next process, thereby improving the automation level and work efficiency of the flipping device.

[0059] Optionally, the flipping device may include a first position detection device and a control component. The first position detection device may be arranged on the conveying mechanism 3 or on the support 101. The first position detection device is used to detect the position information of the object on the conveying mechanism 3. The first position detection device, the lifting drive component 1, the clamping drive component 202 and the rotating drive component 203 are all electrically connected to the control component, and the control component can control the actions of the lifting drive component 1, the clamping drive component 202 and the rotating drive component 203 respectively.

[0060] With such arrangement, after the first position detection device detects that the conveying mechanism 3 has conveyed the object to be flipped into place, the control component can respectively control the actions of the lifting drive component 1, the clamping drive component 202 and the rotating drive component 203 to flip the object, thereby improving the automation level of the flipping device.

[0061] Optionally, a second position detection device is provided on the support 101, and the second position detection device is used to detect the position information of the lifting seat 102. The second position detection device, the first linear drive device 103, the clamping drive assembly 202 and the rotation drive assembly 203 are all electrically connected to the control assembly, and the control assembly can control the actions of the first linear drive device 103, the clamping drive assembly 202 and the rotation drive assembly 203 respectively.

[0062] With such arrangement, after the second position detection device detects that the lifting seat 102 has risen to the position, the control component can control the rotation drive component 203 to rotate, thereby preventing the object from interfering with the conveying device.

[0063] In some embodiments provided by the present invention, the conveying mechanism 3 includes a frame 301 and a conveying roller 302 disposed on the frame 301. For example, the frame 301 can be connected between two supports 101.

[0064] The turning device further includes a limiter 4 and a limiter drive assembly 5. The limiter 4 is arranged between two adjacent conveying rollers 302 in a manner that it can be raised and lowered, and the limiter 4 can protrude from the conveying surface of the conveying roller 302 or retract below the conveying surface. The limiter drive assembly 5 connects the frame 301 and the limiter 4, and is used to drive the limiter 4 to rise and fall.

[0065] In this embodiment, the limit driving component 5 drives the limit member 4 to rise, so that the limit member 4 protrudes above the conveying surface, thereby blocking and positioning the object conveyed by the conveying roller 302, so that the positioning of the object is more accurate, so that the clamping member 201 can clamp the object accurately.

[0066] Optionally, the limiting member 4 can be configured as a limiting plate. Optionally, the limiting drive assembly 5 can be configured as a pneumatic cylinder, an oil cylinder or an electric cylinder.
