[0063] Control the operation of the stroke cylinder 523 to drive the moving block 522 and the flipping mechanism to move on the bottom plate 1, so that the docking block 54 is docked with the flipping groove. Control the operation of the flipping pen cylinder 532, which can drive the guide block 534 and the rack 535 to operate, thereby causing the gear to rotate, driving the rotating shaft 536 and the docking block 54 to rotate, and through the flipping block 51 and a pair of rotating shafts 2, the product profiling plate 3 drives the product 7 to flip to the specified angle.

During the preliminary design process, the installation position of the polyurethane screw limit can be changed to achieve flipping at any angle between 0 and 180 degrees.
