[0050] The air suction assembly of the present utility model includes an installation groove 21, a partition plate 22, and an air pipe joint 23. Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the notch of the installation groove 21 is connected to the second surface of the positioning assembly 11 to form a positioning and processing chamber 24.

The planetary reduction motor 312 further enhances the torque output capacity of the drive assembly, making the flipping action more powerful, suitable for the flipping of heat pipes with larger loads. Meanwhile, the reduction function also reduces the noise and vibration during the operation of the motor. The coupling 313, as a component connecting the servo motor 311, the planetary reduction motor 312, and the rotating assembly, functions to buffer, damp vibration, and transmit power, ensuring good cooperation and stable operation among the components.

[0053] During application, a high-precision and high-torque servo motor 311, such as the Panasonic A6 series servo motor 311, is adopted as the power source of the entire device to provide precisely controllable rotational power. Those skilled in the art can select a planetary reduction motor 312 with an appropriate reduction ratio, such as a harmonic reducer or a planetary gear reducer, according to the output characteristics of the servo motor 311 and the device requirements, and convert the high-speed and low-torque output of the servo motor 311 into a low-speed and high-torque output to meet the device's requirements for torque and speed. Further, a high-rigidity and low-backlash diaphragm coupling 313 is used to connect the servo motor 311 and the planetary reduction motor 312 to transmit power to the rotating assembly and compensate for the small deviation between the two shafts.

[0054] The rotating assembly of the present utility model includes: a first rotating shaft 321, a first bearing 322, a second rotating shaft 323, and a second bearing 324. Meanwhile, the base of the present utility model includes: a bottom plate 44, a first mounting plate 41, a second mounting plate 42, and a mounting bracket 43. Among them, the bottom plate 44 has a first end and a second end arranged oppositely.

[0055] In some preferred embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3, a first mounting plate 41 is provided on the first end of the bottom plate 44. A first through hole 411 is formed in the first mounting plate 41. The first bearing 322 is disposed in the first through hole 411, and the first bearing 322 is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 321. Further, one end of the first rotating shaft 321 is connected to a driving assembly, such as the output end of the coupling 313, and the other end of the first rotating shaft 321 is connected to a fixing portion, such as the positioning assembly 11 and / or the air suction assembly, to provide a supporting force for the positioning assembly 11 and / or the air suction assembly and suspend it. It can be seen that the base provides a stable support for the entire device. The setting of the first mounting plate 41 and the first bearing 322 enables the rotating assembly to rotate smoothly, reduces friction and wear, and improves the stability and service life of the device.

[0056] In some preferred embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , a second mounting plate 42 is provided on the second end of the bottom plate 44. A second through hole 421 is formed in the second mounting plate 42. The second bearing 324 is disposed in the second through hole 421, and the second bearing 324 is sleeved on the output end of the second rotating shaft 323. The input end of the second rotating shaft 323 is connected to a fixing portion, such as the positioning assembly 11 and / or the air suction assembly, to better provide a supporting force for the positioning assembly 11 and / or the air suction assembly and facilitate the flipping of the positioning assembly 11 and / or the air suction assembly. It can be seen that the second mounting plate 42 and the second bearing 324 further enhance the supporting ability of the base and the stability of the rotating assembly, make the flipping action more stable and reliable, and at the same time improve the overall structural strength of the device.

[0057] In some preferred embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , the mounting frame 43 includes a third mounting plate 431 and a fixing plate 432.

In addition, one end of the fixing plate 432 is connected to the third mounting plate 431, and the other end of the fixing plate 432 is connected to the first mounting plate 41 to provide a supporting force for the driving assembly. It can be seen that the mounting frame 43 makes the structure of the entire device more compact and stable. At the same time, by setting the fixing plate 432 and the third mounting plate 431, the anti-overturning ability of the device is enhanced, ensuring the safety and stability of the device during operation.

[0058] During application, in order to increase the safety of the device, the base is made of stainless steel or alloy steel.

[0059] When using this device, a high-precision industrial robot is adopted, equipped with a vision recognition system, which can accurately recognize and grasp the heat pipe to be processed, and place the heat pipe to be processed in the positioning groove 12. Then, start the vacuum generator, and quickly adsorb the heat pipe to be processed through the air suction component. At the same time, detect whether the adsorption force meets the standard to ensure firm fixation of the heat pipe to be processed. Start the laser engraving machine, and make it start working according to the preset program to remove the surface coating on the first surface of the heat pipe. During the operation process, monitor the processing quality in real time to ensure no omission or over-processing. After the laser engraving of the first surface is completed, start the motor to drive the positioning component 11 and the air suction component to rotate 180°. Accurately control the rotation angle through the encoder to ensure that the flipping is in place. After flipping in place, the laser engraving machine automatically adjusts to the processing mode of laser engraving the back surface, and continues to remove the surface coating on the back surface of the heat pipe through the cleaning window and the cleaning through hole 14. After the laser engraving is completed, start the motor again to drive the positioning component 11 and the air suction component to rotate 180°, flip the front surface of the processed heat pipe upwards, and prepare for blanking. Finally, use the robot to grab the processed heat pipe in the positioning groove 12 again, and accurately place it in the material box according to the preset path to complete the entire processing process.

[0060] In summary, the positioning and flipping device of the present utility model can not only position and fix the heat pipe, but also realize the flipping of the heat pipe, and at the same time, it can also not block the areas to be processed on the front and back surfaces of the heat pipe; specifically, by setting the air suction through hole 13, the positioning groove 12 can fix the heat pipe, and the flipping part 3 can assist in realizing the flipping of the positioning component 11 and the air suction component; further, by setting the cleaning chamber 26, the cleaning through hole 14 and the cleaning window, after the positioning component 11 and the air suction component are flipped by 180°, the back surface of the heat pipe can be directly processed.
