Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of rail transit, and particularly relates to an automatic bearing flipping device. Background Art
[0002] The wheel set is the part of a locomotive or vehicle that contacts the rail, and is composed of two left and right wheels firmly pressed on the same axle. The function of the wheel set is to ensure the running and steering of the locomotive or vehicle on the rail, bear all the static and dynamic loads from the locomotive or vehicle, transmit them to the rail, and transmit the loads generated by the unevenness of the line to each component of the locomotive or vehicle.
[0003] In order to reduce the burden of operators, a manipulator or other device can be used to install the bearing on the press-fitting equipment to complete the press-fitting of the bearing. Since there are strict dimensional requirements between the bearing and the wheel set, it is necessary to detect the wheel set and the bearing before press-fitting, record the parameters to form a label sticker, and stick the label on the bearing. When the manipulator grabs the bearing, it can identify the bearing according to the label. However, if the manipulator directly grabs the bearing during this process, the label will face the inside of the manipulator. If the bearing is directly installed on the press-fitting equipment, the label will be pressed onto the wheel set, thus affecting the normal installation of the bearing. Therefore, it is necessary to flip the wheel set before press-fitting so that the side with the label faces outward. If it is flipped manually, it is time-consuming and laborious, and affects the automation process of wheel set press-fitting. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] Aiming at the problem of how to realize the automatic flipping of the bearing in the prior art, the utility model provides an automatic bearing flipping device to realize the automatic flipping during the automatic press-fitting of the bearing.

[0014] Preferably, several first bolt hole groups and several second bolt hole groups are arranged on the bottom plate. The first bearing platform is bolted to any one of the first bolt hole groups, and the second bearing platform is bolted to any one of the second bolt hole groups.
[0015] After adopting this technical solution, the relative position of the two flipping baffles can be adjusted by connecting it to any one group of bolt holes, so that the flipping baffle can just contact the end of the bearing, avoiding collision of the bearing during flipping.
[0016] Preferably, inverted L-shaped support plates are arranged on both sides of the middle of the bottom plate. The two inverted L-shaped support plates are symmetrically arranged and are located between the first bearing platform and the second bearing platform.
[0017] After adopting this technical solution, the inverted L-shaped support plates cooperate with the first bearing platform and the second bearing platform to provide a more stable supporting force for the bearing.
[0018] Preferably, the receiving groove is an axially symmetric structure.
[0019] After adopting this technical solution, the receiving groove is an axially symmetric structure. When bearings with different outer diameters are placed in the receiving groove, they can automatically slide to the middle, avoiding bearing offset, so that the mechanical gripper can smoothly grasp the bearings.
[0020] Preferably, it further includes a driving motor for driving the bearing placement seat to rotate. The driving motor is electrically connected to a controller, and the controller is electrically connected to an infrared sensor arranged in the receiving groove.
