[0023] First, insert the connecting rod 5 into the interior of the bottom ring block 18, and then rotate the knob 24. The knob 24 drives the threaded ring 23 to rotate. The threaded ring 23 drives the triangular clamping ring 25 to rotate, causing the triangular clamping ring 25 to rotate inside the thread groove 22, thereby driving the triangular clamping ring 25 to move inward to squeeze the inclined surface elastic ring 20, causing the inclined surface elastic ring 20 to contract inward to fix the connecting rod 5. Then, start the cylinder 3, causing the cylinder 3 to drive the rack 6 to move back and forth. The rack 6 drives the gear 7 to rotate back and forth, causing the rotating shaft connected to the rear end of the gear 7 to rotate back and forth to fold and flip the material.
[0024] By inserting the connecting rod 5 into the interior of the bottom ring block 18, rotating the knob 24, causing the inclined surface elastic ring 20 to contract inward to fix the connecting rod 5, starting the cylinder 3, the rack 6 drives the gear 7 to rotate back and forth, causing the rotating shaft connected to the rear end of the gear 7 to rotate back and forth to fold and flip the material. Compared with the traditional folding and flipping mechanism, this type of flipping mechanism driven by a cylinder drives the gear 7 to rotate back and forth by connecting the movable groove 26 with the telescopic rod 4, thereby reducing the labor intensity: reducing manual operation and lowering the labor intensity of workers.
[0025] Among them, a cylindrical block 11 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the side plate 1. A slot 12 is opened on the front side of the cylindrical block 11. Card slots 13 are opened on both sides of the bottom of the slot 12. A connecting shaft 15 is movably installed inside the slot 12. A pulley 16 is rotatably installed on the outer side of the connecting shaft 15. Clamping blocks 17 are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the connecting shaft 15.

[0029] When the telescopic rod 4 drives the connecting rod 5 to move back and forth, the connecting rod 5 drives the movable rod 27 to move back and forth inside the activity groove 26 to squeeze the telescopic spring 28, thereby preventing the rack 6 from being damaged due to excessive pushing or pulling force.
[0030] Among them, a gear 7 is movably installed on the outer side of the side plate 1, and the gear 7 corresponds to the rack 6.
[0031] The air cylinder 3 drives the rack 6 to move back and forth, so that the rack 6 drives the gear 7 to rotate back and forth, thereby driving the folding and flipping mechanism (the folding and flipping mechanism is an advanced existing technology, and the article is placed on the folding frame and the folding frame is rotated to fold and flip the article) at the other end of the gear 7 to operate.
[0032] Among them, a limit ring 8 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the side plate 1, a limit rod 9 extending to the left side of the limit ring 8 is fixedly installed at the left end of the rack 6, and a fixed block 10 is fixedly installed at the left end of the limit rod 9.
[0033] The back-and-forth movement of the rack 6 drives the limit rod 9 to move back and forth inside the limit ring 8, thereby playing a role in limiting the rack 6.
[0034] Among them, an auxiliary spring 14 is elastically installed at the bottom of the slot 12, and the auxiliary spring 14 is located inside the latch 17.
[0035] Press the pulley 16 inward, so that the pulley 16 drives the latch 17 to move inward to squeeze the auxiliary spring 14, causing the auxiliary spring 14 to deform, and then rotate the pulley 16 to rotate the latch 17 below the slot 12.

[0037] Rotate the knob 24, the knob 24 drives the threaded ring 23 to rotate, the threaded ring 23 drives the triangular clamping ring 25 to rotate, so that the triangular clamping ring 25 rotates inside the screw groove 22, thereby driving the triangular clamping ring 25 to move inward to squeeze the inclined plane elastic ring 20, so that the inclined plane elastic ring 20 contracts inward to fix the connecting rod 5.
[0038] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model:
[0039] First, insert the connecting rod 5 into the interior of the bottom ring block 18, and then rotate the knob 24. The knob 24 drives the threaded ring 23 to rotate. The threaded ring 23 drives the triangular clamping ring 25 to rotate, causing the triangular clamping ring 25 to rotate inside the screw groove 22, thereby driving the triangular clamping ring 25 to move inward to squeeze the inclined surface elastic ring 20, causing the inclined surface elastic ring 20 to contract inward to fix the connecting rod 5. Then, start the cylinder 3, causing the cylinder 3 to drive the rack 6 to move back and forth. The rack 6 drives the gear 7 to rotate back and forth, causing the rotating shaft connected to the rear end of the gear 7 to rotate back and forth to fold and flip the material.
