[0025] The following is a detailed description of the specific settings and functions of this embodiment. The cylinder 22 is started, and the protruding end of the cylinder 22 drives the connecting rod 28 to move through the elliptical plate 27. The connecting rod 28 drives the concave frame plate 211 to move, and the concave frame plate 211 drives the toothed plate 212 to slide inside the concave slide seat 24. Under the meshing cooperation of the toothed plate 212 and the gear 210, the toothed plate 212 will drive the gear 210 to rotate, and the gear 210 drives the rotating rod 26 to rotate inside the two sets of bearing seats 25.

When in use, the stacking robot moves the vertical flipping mechanism 2 and the clamping assembly 3 to the side of the goods through the connecting end 1, and then clamps the goods through the clamping assembly 3. Finally, when controlling the stacking robot, it drives the vertical flipping mechanism 2 and the clamping assembly 3 to move through the connecting end 1, and moves the goods clamped by the clamping assembly 3 to the appropriate position, and then starts the cylinder 22. The protruding end of the cylinder 22 drives the connecting rod 28 to move through the elliptical plate 27, and the connecting rod 28 drives the concave frame plate 211 to move. The concave frame plate 211 drives the tooth plate 212 to slide inside the concave slide seat 24, and the tooth plate 212 drives the gear 210 to rotate. The gear 210 drives the rotating rod 26 to rotate inside the two sets of bearing seats 25. At the same time, the rotating rod 26 drives the connecting head 23 to rotate, and the connecting head 23 drives the clamping assembly 3 to rotate, which can drive the clamping assembly 3 to flip, and can quickly and accurately adjust the angle of the goods, making it convenient to accurately place the goods.
