These modules can be loaded onto a vibrating plate, but the plate can only handle a single diode module at a time. To improve assembly efficiency, multiple diode modules need to be transported and assembled at once. This requires transfer, and due to the large number of workpieces, material shortages can easily occur during transfer.

[0004] In addition, the directions of multiple diode modules in the photovoltaic connector are not uniform, and the diode modules are required to change directions during the transfer process, which puts new requirements on the transfer mechanism and requires improvement. Utility Model Content

[0016] The following is a clear and complete description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] See also Figure 1~Figure 2 , the embodiments of the present utility model include:

[0018] like Figure 1 The reversing fixture for workpiece transfer shown is used for workpiece 9 (with Figure 1 The transfer and reversing of the workpiece 9 is performed by taking the diode module in the workpiece 9 as an example, including: a fixed base 1, a rotation drive device 2, a carrier 3 and a displacement sensor 5. The rotation drive devices 2 are horizontally arranged on the fixed base 1 at intervals. The number of the rotation drive devices 2 is at least three. In this embodiment, three rotation drive devices are used as an example to perform transfer and reversal of three workpieces 9.

[0019] A bearing seat 8 is mounted on the housing 1 of the rotary drive device 2. The carrier 3 is positioned above the bearing seat 8 and is rotationally driven by the rotary drive device 2. Bearings corresponding to the carrier 3 are located within the bearing seat 8, enhancing the smooth rotation of the carrier 3. In this embodiment, the rotary drive device 2 utilizes rotary cylinders, each of which is individually controlled by a corresponding solenoid valve, providing flexible control.

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, the carrier 3 is a disc structure, and a positioning groove 7 corresponding to the workpiece 9 is concavely provided on the top surface of the carrier 3. In this embodiment, the workpiece 9 is generally a rectangular structure, so the positioning groove 7 is generally a rectangular groove, and the length direction of the positioning groove 7 extends along the radial direction of the carrier 3.

[0021] A detection hole 6 is provided on one side of the carrier 3, communicating with the positioning slot 7. A mounting seat 4 is provided on the bearing seat 8, positioned outside the detection hole 6. A displacement sensor 5 is disposed within the mounting seat 4 and directed toward the detection hole 6. In this embodiment, the detection hole 6 extends radially along the carrier and communicates with one end of the positioning slot 7. The displacement sensor 5 detects the presence of a workpiece 9 in the positioning slot 7, thereby preventing material shortages. The displacement sensor 5 can be connected to the controller of the assembly equipment. Upon receiving a workpiece in-place signal from the displacement sensor, the controller initiates the corresponding rotation of the rotary drive device 2.

[0022] The rotation direction of at least one rotary drive device 2 is opposite to the rotation direction of the other rotary drive devices, such as Figure 2 As shown, one rotary drive device rotates 90 degrees counterclockwise, and the other two rotary drive devices rotate 90 degrees clockwise to achieve Figure 1 The three parallel workpieces are reversed and finally aligned in a straight line, which is convenient for subsequent adsorption, handling and assembly production by the robot.

[0023] In summary, the reversing tooling for workpiece transfer pointed out in the present invention can perform transfer and reversal of multiple workpieces, facilitate adsorption and transportation by the robot, meet the assembly requirements of different products, and improve the level of production automation.
