[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The utility model proposes an automatic flipping device for the long side of an assembly line, comprising a base 1, a sliding assembly and a flipping assembly; the sliding assembly comprises two telescopic rods 2 and two sliding bars 3, the two sliding bars 3 are movably arranged on the opposite side edges of the base 1, the two telescopic rods 2 are respectively connected to the two sliding bars 3 to drive the sliding bars 3 to move back and forth, and a first tooth portion 31 is provided at both ends of the sliding bar 3; the flipping assembly comprises a fixed frame 4 and a clamping device 5, the clamping device 5 is connected to the fixed frame 4, and a second tooth portion 41 is provided on both sides of the fixed frame 4 corresponding to the first tooth portion 31, and the two are engaged with each other, so that the sliding bar 3 drives the fixed frame 4 to flip back and forth when it moves back and forth.

[0024] As can be understood, the base 1 provides a support platform for the entire device and can be installed on external equipment or on an assembly line. A telescopic rod 2 and a sliding bar 3 are installed on both sides of the base 1. The telescopic rod 2 can be an electric telescopic rod 2, a pneumatic telescopic rod 2, a hydraulic telescopic rod 2, etc., without limitation. The telescopic rod 2 provides power to the sliding bar 3 so that it can move back and forth. The clamp 5 in the fixed frame 4 is used to clamp and fix the product to be processed. The side of the fixed frame 4 is provided with a second tooth portion 41 that meshes with the first tooth portion 31 on the sliding bar 3. When the sliding bar 3 moves, the first tooth portion 31 at one end of the sliding bar 3 drives the second tooth portion 41 at the same end of the fixed frame 4 to move, causing the other end of the fixed frame 4 to gradually lift and deflect. The long side of the product on the clamp 5 can gradually rotate to a horizontal plane, facilitating external equipment to perform tasks such as pasting auxiliary materials. Moreover, since the sliding bar 3 can move back and forth, the fixed frame 4 can be deflected back and forth, so that the long sides of the product on both sides can be flipped to a horizontal plane for pasting auxiliary materials, which is very convenient.

[0025] Reference Figures 2 to 3 In one embodiment of the present application, a rotating column 6 is protruded from both side edges of the fixing frame 4 , and the rotating column 6 includes a rotating section 61 and an engaging section 62 connected to each other, and the second tooth portion 41 is circumferentially arranged on a portion of the surface of the engaging section 62 .

[0026] As can be understood, the rotating section 61 is designed to rotate in conjunction with the retaining groove 11 on the base 1. When one end of the fixing frame 4 rotates and rises, the rotating section 61 at the other end rotates within the retaining groove 11. The cylindrical shape of the rotating section 61 reduces frictional resistance with the retaining groove 11. Part of the surface of the engaging section 62 is covered with the second tooth portion 41, which is designed to engage with the first tooth portion 31 on the sliding bar 3, so that the sliding bar 3 moves and causes the fixing frame 4 to flip.

[0027] Reference Figures 2 to 3 In one embodiment of the present application, the base 1 is provided with a limiting groove 11 corresponding to the rotating section 61 , and the rotating section 61 is placed in the limiting groove 11 .

[0028] It can be understood that the limiting groove 11 is provided to prevent the fixing frame 4 from horizontal displacement. Since the rotating section 61 is placed in the limiting groove 11, the fixing frame 4 cannot move horizontally when the sliding bar 3 drives the fixing frame 4 to move. The rotating section 61 can only rotate in the limiting groove 11, so that the other end of the fixing frame 4 is lifted.

[0029] Reference Figures 2 to 3 In one embodiment of the present application, a movable platform 7 is provided on two opposite edges of the base 1 , the movable platform 7 is provided with a slide groove 71 , and the slide bar 3 is movably provided in the slide groove 71 .

[0030] It can be understood that the movable platform 7 protrudes on both sides of the base 1. The sliding groove 71 provided on the base 1 guides the sliding bar 3 so that it can only move linearly along the sliding groove 71, thereby increasing the stability of the fixed frame 4 when it is flipped. On the other hand, it also provides a certain protection effect for the sliding bar 3 so that it is not directly exposed to the outside, thereby reducing the possibility of wear.

[0031] Reference Figures 2 to 3 In one embodiment of the present application, the width of the slide groove 71 gradually decreases from the bottom of the groove to the groove mouth, and the sliding bar 3 is arranged to fit the inner wall surface of the slide groove 71.

[0032] It can be understood that the slide groove 71 is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and its cross-section is a trapezoid, and the shape of the sliding bar 3 also corresponds to it. The two fit together, which can prevent the sliding bar 3 in the slide groove 71 from falling out of the slide groove 71, and has a better limiting and protective effect on the sliding bar 3.

[0033] Reference Figures 2 to 3 In one embodiment of the present application, a mounting portion 72 is formed at the bottom of the movable platform 7 , and the telescopic rod 2 is disposed on the mounting portion 72 .

[0034] It can be understood that the mounting portion 72 is a groove-shaped space, and the telescopic rod 2 is located in this space, which plays a certain protective role for the telescopic rod 2. It should be noted that the slide groove 71 in the area where the mounting portion 72 is located passes through the movable platform 7, that is, the slide groove 71 of this part is directly connected to the mounting portion 72, so that the telescopic rod 2 of the mounting portion 72 is connected to the sliding bar 3 in the slide groove 71 and drives it to move. The other end of the telescopic rod 2 abuts against the side wall of the mounting portion 72, providing a force point. The telescopic rod 2 is extended or shortened to drive the sliding bar 3 to move back and forth.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present application, the base 1 is further provided with a protective shell 8 corresponding to the movable platform 7 , and the protective shell 8 partially covers the movable platform 7 , the sliding assembly and the rotating column 6 .

[0036] As you can understand, the primary function of protective case 8 is to protect internal mechanical components from damage or influences from the external environment, which may include dust, moisture, chemicals, mechanical shock, etc. Protective case 8 effectively prevents these external factors from invading internal components, thereby extending the lifespan of the device. Furthermore, it reduces noise and vibration, especially those generated by the operation of the sliding assembly. Furthermore, protective case 8 makes the device look neater and more aesthetically pleasing, while also adding a branded or distinctive appearance to the device.

[0037] When the cam 3 is in the unlock position, the first tooth portion 31 of the cam 3 and the second tooth portion 31 of the cam 3 are engaged with each other, so that the cam 3 can be unlocked and the cam 3 can be unlocked.

[0038] The same or similar numbers in the drawings of this embodiment correspond to the same or similar parts; in the description of this application, it should be understood that if the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", etc. indicate an orientation or position relationship, they are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the drawings. This is only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, the terms describing the position relationship in the drawings are only used for illustrative purposes and cannot be understood as a limitation on this patent. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0039] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
