[0025] Specifically, the flipping device 100 includes an elevator 110 having a support platform 111, and a flip assembly 120 and a clamping driver 130 disposed on the support platform 111. The elevator 110 is used to drive the flip assembly 120 and the clamping driver 130 to reciprocate toward the gear 300, and the clamping driver 130 is used to clamp the gear 300.

[0026] Among them, the flipping assembly 120 includes a rotating drive member 121, and a bearing 122 and a bearing seat 123 arranged between the rotating drive member 121 and the clamping drive member 130. The rotating drive member 121 and the bearing seat 123 are respectively arranged at the opposite edges of the support platform 111, and the bearing 122 is arranged in the middle of the support platform 111. The output shaft of the rotating drive member 121 is connected to the clamping drive member 130 in turn through the bearing 122 and the bearing seat 123, so that the clamping drive member 130 is arranged outside the support range of the support platform 111. The rotating drive member 121 is used to drive the clamping drive member 130 to flip.

[0027] That is, in this embodiment, the lifting function of the elevator 110 is used to drive the support platform 111 to move up and down, so that the clamping drive member 130 can move to the front of the gear 300 to clamp the gear 300, and then the elevator 110 is used to move the support platform 111 to move the gear 300 upward, and finally the rotating drive member 121 is used to drive the clamping drive member 130 to flip, so as to realize the flipping of the gear 300, thereby solving the disadvantages of the prior art of manually flipping the gear 300, which has high operation intensity and wastes manpower. It is beneficial to solve the technical problem of precision machining of the gear 300 in batches. In some actual situations, in order to ensure the stability of the gear 300 when it is flipped, the bearing 122 can be used to effectively reduce the friction of the output shaft and improve the smoothness of the output shaft during operation. The bearing seat 123 can be used to increase the support points of the output shaft, so that the output shaft has greater stability during operation. Especially when flipping the heavier gear 300, the position and function of the bearing 122 and the bearing seat 123 are used to ensure the balance of both ends of the output shaft and ensure the stability of the gear 300 when it is flipped.

[0028] In order to improve the reliability of the rotating device in this embodiment, in some preferred embodiments, the bearing seat 123 can be detachably connected to the support platform 111, wherein the support platform 111 is provided with at least one fixing through hole 112 for connecting the bearing seat 123, and in some other preferred embodiments, there are multiple fixing through holes 112, and the multiple fixing through holes 112 are spaced apart along the length direction of the support platform 111, and the bearing seat 123 can be fixedly connected to the support platform 111 by bolts.

[0035] In the turning device 100 provided by the present invention, the arrangement of the lift 110, the turning assembly 120 and the clamping drive 130 allows the gear 300 to be turned over by first utilizing the lifting function of the lift 110 to drive the support platform 111 to move up and down, so that the clamping drive 130 can move to the front of the gear 300 to clamp the gear 300, and then the lift 110 is used to move the support platform 111 to move the gear 300 upward, and finally the rotating drive 121 is used to drive the clamping drive 130 to turn over, so as to realize the turning over of the gear 300, thereby solving the problem of using manual labor in the prior art. Flipping the gear 300 by a worker has the disadvantages of high operation intensity and waste of manpower, which is not conducive to the technical problem of precision processing of the gear 300 in batches. In some actual situations, in order to ensure the stability of the gear 300 when flipping, the use of bearing 122 can effectively reduce the friction of the output shaft and improve the smoothness of the output shaft during operation. The use of bearing seat 123 can increase the support points of the output shaft, so that the output shaft has greater stability during operation. Especially when flipping the gear 300 with a heavier weight, the position and function of the bearing 122 and the bearing seat 123 are used to ensure the balance of both ends of the output shaft and ensure the stability of the gear 300 when flipping.
