Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of industrial automation, in particular to an up-and-down flipping tooling and a carrier circulation line applied thereto. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of industry and intelligent manufacturing, the level of automation and intelligence of production lines has been continuously improved. In a production line, as an important tool for material handling and workpiece support, the flipping operation of a carrier is one of the common technological processes. The traditional carrier flipping method often relies on manual operation or simple mechanical equipment, which is not only inefficient but also has potential safety hazards. Therefore, it has become an urgent need in the industry to develop an efficient, safe and automated up-and-down circulation line carrier flipping tooling.

[0003] There are still great defects in the positioning of the current flipping tooling, with insufficient positioning accuracy, resulting in the easy deviation of the position of the carrier during the flipping process, thus affecting the accuracy of flipping. At the same time, the positioning process of some flipping toolings takes a long time, which reduces the overall efficiency of the production line. Especially on a production line that requires frequent carrier flipping, the lag in positioning speed will significantly affect the production efficiency. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an up-and-down flipping tooling and a carrier circulation line applied thereto, which effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: an up-and-down flipping tooling, characterized by comprising:

[0006] A flipping bracket with carriers installed on both sides;

[0007] A transmission mechanism connected to the flipping bracket and transmitting flipping power to the flipping bracket;

[0008] A power mechanism connected to the transmission mechanism to provide flipping power to the flipping bracket;

[0009] The transmission structure and the power mechanism are fixed on both sides of a support plate;

[0010] Wherein, a positioning mechanism is symmetrically arranged at the upper and lower centers on the side of the support plate facing the flipping bracket. The positioning mechanism includes a positioning shaft and a telescopic shaft. A positioning boss is provided at the end of the positioning shaft. The centers of the telescopic shaft and the transmission mechanism are collinear in the vertical direction, and the positioning shaft and the telescopic shaft are not collinear in the vertical direction.

[0011] Further, the flipping bracket includes two parallel cross beam plates and a rectangular plate connecting the cross beam plates;

[0012] A through hole is provided in the middle of the cross beam plate, and positioning holes are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the through hole of the cross beam plate close to the support plate. An elliptical groove is formed in the middle of the rectangular plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the rectangular plate is fixedly connected to the carrier through a square plate, and rotating wheels are provided on both sides of the square plate close to the carrier.

[0014] Furthermore, when the flipping bracket is flipped to the highest point, the telescopic shaft is concentric with the positioning hole.

[0015] Furthermore, when the flipping bracket is flipped to the highest point, the rotating wheel is tangent to the plane of the positioning boss.

[0016] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism includes a transmission shaft and a transmission disk connected to the transmission shaft;

[0017] The support plate is provided with a fixing hole for the coupling to pass through. The transmission disk is connected to the power mechanism through the coupling, and a safety cover is provided outside the transmission disk.

[0018] Furthermore, the positioning boss is of a semi-elliptical structure, the upper part thereof is provided with a flat surface, and a small hole is provided on this flat surface, and a positioning sensor is installed in the small hole.

[0019] Furthermore, the positioning sensor and the telescopic shaft are connected through a control module.

[0021] The present utility model also provides a carrier circulation line, including the up and down flipping tooling as described in any one of the above.

[0022] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are that through the arrangement of the positioning shaft and the telescopic shaft in the positioning mechanism, the position of the carrier can be accurately controlled during the flipping process of the tooling. The design of the positioning boss can ensure the position consistency of the carrier before and after flipping, avoiding flipping failure or accuracy decline caused by position deviation. Since the positioning shaft and the telescopic shaft are not collinear in the vertical direction, this positioning method can increase the contact area and stability between the tooling and the carrier. During the flipping process, the tooling can more stably support the carrier, reducing shaking and jitter, thereby improving the smoothness and safety of the flipping action.

[0032] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the 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.

When an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are only for illustrative purposes and do not represent the only implementation.

[0034] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which this utility model belongs. The terms used in the specification of this utility model are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this utility model. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0035] As Figures 1 to 7 shown in the up-and-down flipping tooling, it includes: a flipping bracket 1 with carriers installed on both sides; a transmission mechanism 2 connected to the flipping bracket 1 and transmitting the flipping power to the flipping bracket 1; a power mechanism 3 connected to the transmission mechanism 2 to provide the flipping power to the flipping bracket 1; the transmission mechanism 2 and the power mechanism 3 are fixed on both sides of a bracket plate 4; wherein, on the side of the bracket plate 4 facing the flipping bracket 1, a positioning mechanism 5 is symmetrically arranged in the up-and-down center. The positioning mechanism 5 includes a positioning shaft 51 and a telescopic shaft 52. A positioning boss 6 is provided at the end of the positioning shaft 51. The centers of the telescopic shaft 52 and the transmission mechanism 2 are collinear in the vertical direction, and the positioning shaft 51 and the telescopic shaft 52 are not collinear in the vertical direction.

[0036] The implementation process of this utility model is as follows: First, when the tooling is in the initial state, carriers to be flipped are installed on both sides of the flipping bracket 1 and are in the horizontal position. The positioning shaft 51 and the telescopic shaft 52 of the positioning mechanism 5 are in the preset initial positions. The power mechanism 3 is started, and the flipping power is transmitted to the flipping bracket 1 through the transmission mechanism 2. The transmission mechanism 2 uses transmission elements to convert the rotational motion generated by the power mechanism 3 into the up-and-down flipping action of the flipping bracket 1. During the flipping process, the telescopic shaft 52 performs telescopic actions according to a preset program or control signal. Since the centers of the telescopic shaft 52 and the transmission mechanism 2 are collinear in the vertical direction, the telescopic movement of the telescopic shaft 52 is coordinated with the flipping action of the flipping bracket 1, ensuring that the positioning mechanism 5 can move with the flipping bracket 1 and always maintain the positioning and support of the carrier. When the carrier is flipped to the highest point, the runner 71 stops on the plane of the positioning boss 61. After the positioning sensor detects the runner 71, it feeds back the information to the control module, and the control telescopic shaft 52 starts to perform telescopic movement. The telescopic shaft 52 is inserted into the through hole 111 on the cross beam plate 11. After the carrier is separated from other components, the telescopic shaft 52 retracts, and the power mechanism 3 continues to work, flipping the carrier from the highest point to the lowest point, thus completing the flipping action.

[0037] In the present utility model, the flipping bracket 1 includes two cross beam plates 11 arranged in parallel and a rectangular plate 12 connecting the cross beam plates 11. Through the two cross beam plates 11 arranged in parallel and the rectangular plate 12 connecting them, the flipping bracket 1 forms a stable framework. This structure can bear the weight of the vehicle and the forces generated during the flipping process, ensuring the smoothness and safety of the flipping action. A through hole 111 is provided in the middle of the cross beam plate 11, and positioning holes 112 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the through hole 111 of the cross beam plate 11 close to the support plate 4. The through hole 111 and the positioning holes 112 provided on the cross beam plate 11, in cooperation with the telescopic shaft 52 and the positioning boss 6, achieve precise positioning of the vehicle, ensuring the stability and consistency of the vehicle position during the flipping process, and improving the accuracy and reliability of the flipping. An oval groove is formed in the middle of the rectangular plate 12. The rectangular plate 12 is fixedly connected to the vehicle through a square plate 7. Rotating wheels 71 are provided on both sides of the square plate 7 close to the vehicle. The oval groove design in the middle of the rectangular plate 12 increases the flexibility of the flipping bracket, enabling it to adapt to vehicles of different shapes and sizes. At the same time, through the fixed connection between the square plate 7 and the vehicle and the setting of the rotating wheels 71, the vehicle can move more smoothly during the flipping process, reducing friction and resistance. When the flipping bracket 1 flips to the highest point, the telescopic shaft 52 and the positioning hole 112 are concentrically arranged, which enables the telescopic shaft to accurately insert into the positioning hole to achieve the support and positioning of the flipping bracket. When the flipping bracket 1 flips to the highest point, the rotating wheel 71 is tangent to the plane of the positioning boss 6, ensuring the stability and balance of the vehicle when it flips to the highest point and simplifying the process of the flipping operation.

[0038] In this solution, the transmission mechanism 2 includes a transmission shaft 21 and a transmission disk 22 connected to the transmission shaft 21; the support plate 4 is provided with a fixing hole 41 for the coupling to pass through. The transmission disk 22 is connected to the power mechanism 3 through the coupling. A safety cover is provided on the outer side of the transmission disk 22. The transmission mechanism 2 composed of the transmission shaft 21 and the transmission disk 22 is tightly connected to the power mechanism 3 through the coupling, ensuring efficient and stable transmission of power. This structure can effectively convert the rotational power generated by the power mechanism 3 into the flipping action required for the flipping bracket 1, improving the working efficiency of the flipping tooling; the design of the transmission disk 22 makes the power transmission more stable, reducing vibration and noise during the transmission process. At the same time, through a reasonable transmission ratio design, precise control of the flipping speed and flipping torque can be achieved to meet the flipping requirements of different vehicles; setting a safety cover on the outer side of the transmission disk 22 can effectively prevent personnel from accidentally touching the transmission mechanism, reducing the accident risk caused by improper operation. In addition, the safety cover can also prevent external sundries from entering the transmission mechanism, ensuring its normal and safe operation; the support plate 4 is provided with a fixing hole 41 for the coupling to pass through. This design makes the installation and disassembly of the transmission mechanism 2 simpler and more convenient. When the transmission mechanism needs to be replaced or repaired, the disassembly and installation work can be quickly completed, reducing the maintenance cost and time.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the positioning boss 6 is a semi-elliptical structure, and its upper part is provided with a flat surface. A small hole 61 is provided on this flat surface, and a positioning sensor is installed in the small hole 61. The positioning sensor and the telescopic shaft 52 are connected through a control module. The semi-elliptical design of the positioning boss 6 makes its contact area with the vehicle more uniform, increasing the accuracy and stability of positioning. This shape can better adapt to the shape and size of the vehicle, ensuring that the position of the vehicle does not shift during the flipping process; a small hole 61 is provided on the flat surface of the positioning boss, and a positioning sensor is installed therein. This sensor can real-time monitor the position and state of the vehicle and feedback the information to the control module. Through the connection with the telescopic shaft 52, the control module can accurately adjust the position and action of the telescopic shaft according to the feedback data of the sensor, thereby realizing precise positioning and stable support of the vehicle. At the same time, through the coordinated use of the positioning sensor and the control module, the entire flipping tooling realizes automated and intelligent operation. The tooling can automatically judge the position and state of the vehicle and automatically adjust the flipping action without manual intervention. This not only improves the working efficiency but also reduces the operation difficulty and the possibility of human error.

[0040] To make the positioning mechanism more stable, the telescopic shaft 52 is semi-elliptical with a circular end. The telescopic shaft 52 is connected to the base 9 through the connecting ring 8 in an embedded manner, and the base 9 is fixed on the support plate 4. The power mechanism 3 is a servo motor. The telescopic shaft 52 is designed to be semi-elliptical with a circular end. This shape enables the telescopic shaft to better cooperate with other parts of the positioning mechanism during the telescopic process, ensuring the precise positioning and stable support of the vehicle. The semi-elliptical telescopic shaft can provide uniform and stable supporting force at different positions, preventing the vehicle from shaking or shifting during the flipping process; the telescopic shaft 52 is connected to the base 9 through the connecting ring 8 in an embedded manner, which enables the telescopic shaft to flexibly perform telescopic actions when needed to adapt to vehicles of different sizes and shapes. At the same time, the base 9 is fixed on the support plate 4, ensuring the stability and reliability of the entire positioning mechanism.

[0041] Some embodiments of the present utility model also provide a vehicle circulation line including the vehicle used in the up-and-down flipping tooling described above.
