[0023] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an automatic linkage turning tool comprises a base 1, a column 2 and a rotating block;

[0024] The plurality of columns 2 are arranged in pairs and vertically mounted on the base 1;

[0025] The plurality of rotating blocks are arranged on the pillars 2 from top to bottom, and the rotating blocks on the same layer height on two paired pillars 2 are used together, such as Figure 1 As shown, for a smaller workpiece 10, two columns 2 may be arranged in pairs, and the rotating blocks on the columns 2 may be used to support both ends of the workpiece 10 so that the workpiece 10 is placed horizontally. For a larger workpiece 10, four or more columns 2 may be arranged in pairs, and the rotating blocks on the columns 2 may be used to keep the workpiece 10 placed horizontally.

[0026] A V-shaped groove 11 is provided at one end of each rotating block for placing the workpiece 10. By providing the V-shaped groove 11 on the rotating block, on the one hand, the workpiece 10 can be placed stably on the rotating block, and on the other hand, one end of the rotating block is heavy and the other end is light, which is convenient for flipping;

[0027] Each rotating block is rotatably mounted on the column 2 via a rotating shaft 4. The column 2 is provided with a limiting shaft 8 for limiting the rotating block. When a material workpiece 10 is placed on the rotating block, the limiting effect of the limiting shaft 8 can keep the rotating block horizontal. When the material workpiece 10 is removed, the rotating block will rotate along the rotating shaft 4 toward the heavier end to achieve flipping.

[0028] The rotating blocks located on the same column 2 and adjacent to each other are connected by a connecting rod 6. The upper end of the connecting rod 6 is slidingly connected to the rotating block located on the upper layer, and the lower end of the connecting rod 6 is rotatably connected to the rotating block located on the lower layer. A counterweight block 5 is installed on the rotating block at the bottom end of the connecting rod 6. By setting the counterweight block 5, the rotating block of the lower layer can also be flipped toward the heavier end.

[0029] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, the upper end of the connecting rod 6 is provided with a long slot hole, and the heavy end of the upper rotating block (i.e., the end opposite to the V-shaped slot) is installed with a sliding shaft 7. When the material workpiece 10 is removed from the upper rotating block, the upper rotating block, under the action of its own weight, causes the sliding shaft 7 to slide along the long slot hole, thereby causing the upper rotating block to flip counterclockwise, so that the material workpiece 10 on the lower layer can enter a standby state, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 (D).

[0030] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, one end of the rotating block is provided with a mounting hole I12 for connecting the connecting rod 6. Through the provided mounting hole I12, the sliding shaft 7 can be installed on the upper rotating block to facilitate sliding connection with the upper end of the connecting rod 6. The rotating shaft can also be installed on the lower rotating block to facilitate rotational connection with the lower end of the connecting rod 6.

[0031] A mounting hole II 13 is provided in the middle of the rotating block below the V-shaped groove 11 , and a rotating shaft 4 is installed in the mounting hole II 13 for convenient rotation connection with the column 2 .

[0032] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 、 Figure 3 As shown, the included angle of the V-shaped groove 11 is an obtuse angle, which ensures that the rotating block can be turned over smoothly.

[0033] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, each column 2 is equipped with two rotating blocks, including a rotating block I 3 located on the lower layer and a rotating block II 9 located on the upper layer. The upper end of the connecting rod 6 is slidably connected to the upper portion of the rotating block II 9, and the lower end of the connecting rod 6 is rotationally connected to the upper portion of the rotating block I 3. Of course, according to actual use needs, each column 2 can be equipped with multiple layers of rotating blocks. When multiple layers of rotating blocks are provided, they are sequentially designated as the first layer, the second layer, the third layer, etc. from bottom to top. In this case, a connecting rod I is installed between the first and second layers, and a connecting rod II is also installed between the second and third layers. The connecting rod II and the connecting rod I are respectively arranged on either side of the rotating block of the second layer.

[0034] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2As shown, the lower end of the column 2 is also provided with a limiting bottom shaft 14, which is used to limit the lower rotating block to flip to a certain angle after the material workpiece 10 on the lower rotating block is taken away. This flip angle can facilitate the subsequent placement of the material workpiece 10, such as Figure 4 (E).

[0035] Specific use process, combined with Figure 4 As shown, a two-layer rotating block (rotating block I 3 on the lower layer and rotating block II 9 on the upper layer) on one side (the use process of the other side is similar) is used as an example for explanation:

[0036] The base 1 is placed horizontally, and then multiple columns 2 are vertically installed on the base 1, with every two columns 2 forming a pair; a rotating block I 3 and a rotating block II 9 are respectively installed on each column 2 through a rotating shaft 4. At the same time, two limiting shafts 8 and a limiting bottom shaft 14 are installed on the column 2. The limiting shafts 8 respectively limit the rotation angle of the rotating blocks I 3 and II 9 to ensure that the rotating blocks can remain horizontal after the material workpiece 10 is placed. The limiting bottom shaft 14 limits the position, and when the material workpiece 10 is removed, the rotating blocks on the lower layer can flip to a certain angle;

[0037] The outer sides of the rotating block I 3 and the rotating block II 9 are connected by a connecting rod 6, the upper end of the connecting rod 6 is slidably connected to the rotating block II 9, and the lower end of the connecting rod 6 is rotatably connected to the rotating block I 3;

[0038] Before the material is placed, the bottom of the rotating block I 3 is pressed on the limiting bottom shaft 14 by its own gravity. The limiting bottom shaft 14 limits the rotating block I 3 from rotating counterclockwise. The sliding shaft 7 is located at the bottom end of the long slot hole of the connecting rod 6. The upper part of the rotating block II 9 is limited by the limiting shaft 8 and cannot rotate counterclockwise. Figure 4 (A). To facilitate the drop of workpieces 10 from above, the horizontal distance between the limiting axes 8 at the rotating blocks II 9 on the paired columns 2, used on the same level, is greater than the horizontal distance between the limiting axes 8 at the rotating blocks I 3. This ensures that the opening distance between the upper rotating blocks II 9 is greater than the opening distance between the lower rotating blocks I 3, and the entire tooling is in a balanced and static state.

[0039] During material discharge, when the material workpiece 10 falls from above and falls to the front end of the rotating block I 3, the gravity of the material workpiece 10 causes the rotating block I 3 to rotate along the rotating shaft 4 (clockwise rotation). When the rotating block I 3 rotates to the position limited by the limiting shaft 8, the rotating block I 3 is in a horizontal state. While the rotating block I 3 rotates, the connecting rod 6 also rotates. The long slot hole on the connecting rod 6 pushes the sliding shaft 7 to move upward. The sliding shaft 7 is fixed on the rotating block II 9. During the movement, a rotational torque is generated around the upper rotating shaft 4, driving the upper rotating block II 9 to also start to rotate clockwise, and rotate to the preset position and stop, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 (B). At this time, the material workpiece 10 falls steadily on the rotating block I 3, and the upper rotating block II 9 is in the preset position. Then, the material workpiece 10 on the upper layer continues to fall on the upper rotating block II 9, and the entire tooling reaches a balanced static state again. Figure 4 (C).

[0040] When the material is grabbed and removed, the tooling repeats the action in reverse and returns to its initial state.

[0041] The automatic linkage turning tool of this utility model is that when the upper material workpiece is removed, the upper rotating block can quickly turn over, putting the lower material workpiece into a standby state. When the material workpiece is placed on the lower rotating block, the lower rotating block rotates around the rotating shaft to the limit axis position and stops, while the upper rotating block is driven by the connecting rod to rotate, realizing the automatic interlocking turning of the upper rotating block to reach the state of preparation for material workpiece placement, and vice versa. Both processes do not require human intervention, which can improve efficiency and adapt to the production rhythm. The automatic linkage turning tool has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture, and responds quickly. It can be linked in multiple layers, saving material placement space.

[0042] Furthermore, those skilled in the art will appreciate that, although some embodiments described herein include certain features included in other embodiments but not other features, combinations of features from different embodiments are also intended to fall within the scope of protection of the present invention and form different embodiments. For example, in the above embodiments, those skilled in the art will be able to use them in combination based on the known technical solutions and the technical problems to be solved by this application.
