[0036] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0037] As Figure 1 shown, the present invention provides a strip steel automatic turnover machine, including:

[0038] A machine body 1, the machine body 1 is provided with a turnover body 11 that rotates in a columnar shape, and a placement opening 12 is axially penetrated through the turnover body 11. The placement opening 12 has a horizontal plane to support the strip steel in a flat state and a vertical plane to support the strip steel in an upright state;

[0039] A proximity switch 2, the proximity switch 2 is arranged at the outer edge of the horizontal plane of the placement opening 12 to detect the placement state of the strip steel;

[0040] An inlet grating sensor 3, the inlet induction grating 3 is arranged on one end side of the turnover body 11 and takes this end side as the inlet side. The inlet grating sensor 3 is parallel to the horizontal plane of the placement opening 12 and is placed below it;

[0041] An outlet grating sensor 4, the outlet grating sensor 4 is arranged outside the vertical plane of the placement opening 12 parallel to the axis of the turnover body 11 and rotates with the turnover body 11;

[0042] When the strip steel is placed in the placement opening 12 by a flat fork, the proximity switch 2 obtains a signal, and after the inlet grating sensor 3 detects that the flat fork has left the placement opening 12, the turnover body 11 rotates 90 degrees; or when the flat fork enters the placement opening 12 to take out the strip steel, the proximity switch 2 loses the signal, and after the outlet grating sensor 4 detects that the flat fork has left the placement opening 12, the turnover body 11 rotates back 90 degrees.

[0043] This implementation mode mainly places the strip steel in the placement opening 12 through a flat fork. At the same time, the proximity switch 2 obtains a signal. After the inlet grating sensor 3 detects that the flat fork has left the placement opening, a feedback signal controls the turnover body to rotate 90 degrees to turn the strip steel to an upright position, and then the flat fork forks the strip steel away. When the proximity switch 2 loses the signal and the outlet grating sensor 4 detects that the flat fork has left the placement opening, a feedback signal controls the turnover body to rotate back 90 degrees to reset.

[0044] Compared with the existing solution of manually controlling the flipping and resetting of the flipping machine, the utility model can obtain the signal of the strip placement through the proximity switch 2, and perform flipping after the feeding grating sensor 3 detects that the flat fork leaves the placement opening. When the flat fork picks up the strip, the proximity switch 2 loses the signal, and performs resetting after the discharging grating sensor 4 detects that the flat fork leaves, achieving the effect of automatically controlling the flipping of the strip, simplifying the work of the operator, and improving the work efficiency.

[0045] When flipping the strip, it is necessary to drive the flipping body 11 to flip 90 degrees by the body 1. After the strip is picked up and leaves, it is necessary to drive the flipping body 11 to rotate and reset by the body 1. Therefore, the following preferred implementation examples are proposed.

[0046] As Figure 1 shown, the body 1 further includes a support base 13. A reduction motor 131 is provided inside the support base 13, and a driving gear 132 is arranged on the shaft of the reduction motor 131;

[0047] A rack 111 is arranged around the outer side wall of the flipping body 11, and the driving gear 132 is engaged with the rack 111.

[0048] Specifically, a reduction motor 131 is arranged inside the support base 13, and the driving gear 132 on the shaft of the reduction motor 131 can be engaged with the rack 111 outside the flipping body 11 to drive the flipping body 11 to flip or reset.

[0049] Among them, the radian of the rack 111 is greater than 90 degrees to meet the flipping angle of the flipping body 11.

[0050] When placing the strip, it is necessary to place the strip at the center of the horizontal plane of the placement opening 12 and close to the vertical plane to prevent the strip from tipping over during the flipping process. However, it is difficult and time-consuming to adjust the strip by the flat fork. Therefore, the following preferred implementation examples are proposed.

[0051] As Figures 2 to 6 shown, an adjustment mechanism 5 is arranged on the horizontal plane of the placement opening 12. The adjustment mechanism 5 includes a translation adjustment component 51 and a centering adjustment component 52;

[0052] A support frame 53 is arranged on the translation adjustment component 51, and the centering adjustment component 52 is fixed on the support frame 53. After the centering adjustment component 52 adjusts the strip placed on the support frame 53 to be centered, the strip is adjusted by the translation component 51 to be close to the vertical plane of the placement opening 12.

[0053] The translation adjustment component 51 includes a plurality of translation guide rails 511 arranged on the horizontal plane of the placement opening 12. Each translation guide rail 511 is provided with a translation slide 512, and the support frame 53 is fixed on the translation slide 512;

[0054] The centering adjustment component 52 includes three adjustment guide rails 521 arranged inside the support frame 53, and the three adjustment guide rails 521 are arranged around the axis of the support frame 53. Each adjustment guide rail 521 is provided with an adjustment slider 522, and each adjustment slider 522 is provided with an adjustment rod body 523. The upper ends of the three adjustment rod bodies 523 converge and extend above the support frame 53.

[0055] Specifically, the upper ends of the three adjustment rod bodies 523 converge and extend above the support frame 53. The flat fork inserts the center hole of the strip steel into the three adjustment rod bodies 523 and then leaves. The three adjustment rod bodies 523 slide outwards along with the adjustment sliders 522 and evenly pull the inner wall of the strip steel center hole to adjust it to the center. Then, it slides in the direction perpendicular to the placement opening 12 through the translation slide block 512, so that one side of the strip steel can closely adhere to the vertical side of the placement opening 12.

[0056] When the three adjustment rod bodies 523 adjust the strip steel, they will contact the inner wall of the strip steel center hole. At the same time, there will also be contact and relative movement between the lower surface of the coiled strip steel and the surface of the support frame 53. During this process, there is a risk of scratching the strip steel. Therefore, the following preferred implementation examples are proposed.

[0057] As Figures 5 to 6 shown, a rolling sleeve 524 is rotatably arranged on each adjustment rod body 523, and a rubber sleeve 525 is arranged on the outer wall of the rolling sleeve 524;

[0058] The surface of the support frame 53 is provided with a plurality of rolling grooves 531, and a rolling ball 532 is rotatably arranged in each rolling groove 531.

[0059] Specifically, a rolling sleeve 524 is arranged on each adjustment rod body 523, and the rubber sleeve 525 outside the rolling sleeve 524 directly contacts the inner wall of the strip steel center hole, which can prevent the inner wall of the strip steel center hole from being scratched during the adjustment process. And arranging the rolling balls 532 on the support frame 53 can lift the strip steel frame, avoid direct contact between the strip steel and the surface of the support frame 53, and the rolling balls 532 can also roll adaptively during the adjustment, further protecting the strip steel.

[0060] In order to prevent the strip steel from rolling to both sides during the flipping process, the following preferred embodiments are proposed.

[0061] As Figure 7 shown, a limiting body 6 is arranged on the vertical surface of the placement opening 12, and both sides of the limiting body 6 are recessed towards the center to form a limiting groove 61 for supporting the strip steel.

[0062] Specifically, both sides of the limiting body 6 are recessed inward to form a limiting groove 61. After the strip steel is centered and adjusted, it can be translated and adjusted to closely adhere to the limiting body 6 and be stuck in the limiting groove 61.

[0063] During the operation of this embodiment, the strip steel is placed on the support frame 53 through the flat fork and inserted on the adjusting rod body 523. Meanwhile, the proximity switch 2 obtains a signal. When the feeding grating sensor 3 detects that the flat fork leaves the placement opening 12, the adjusting rod body 523 pulls the inner wall of the central hole of the strip steel outwards to adjust it to the center. Then, the strip steel is translated and adjusted to closely adhere to the limiting groove 61 through the translation slide block 512. Then, the turnover body 11 is driven by the reduction motor 131 to turn 90 degrees until the strip steel stands upright. Then, the strip steel is picked up by the flat fork. When the proximity switch 2 loses the signal and the discharging grating sensor 4 detects that the flat fork leaves the placement opening 12, the turnover body 11 is driven by the reduction motor 131 to rotate and reset.

[0064] The above embodiments are only exemplary embodiments of the present application and are not used to limit the present application. The protection scope of the present application is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent replacements within the essence and protection scope of the present application, and such modifications or equivalent replacements should also be regarded as falling within the protection scope of the present application.
