Detailed Implementation

[0033] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0034] like Figure 1-13 As shown, a light strip flipping mechanism includes a frame 1 arranged along the X-axis. A flipping component 4 is provided on the frame 1, and a driving component 6 is provided between the flipping component 4 and the frame 1. The driving component 6 drives the flipping component 4 to move between a first position 41 and a second position 42 along the Y-axis. The flipping component 4 includes a support platform 43 and a clamping component 44 rotatably connected to the support platform 43. The clamping component 44 includes a first clamp 441 and a second clamp 442 that can be opened and closed with each other. The support platform 43 is also provided with a first driving member 45 and a first connecting member 46 provided on the output end of the first driving member 45. The clamping component 44 is also provided with a second connecting member 47 that cooperates with the first connecting member 46. The first driving member 45 drives the first connecting member 46 to move and drives the second connecting member 47 and the clamping component 44 to flip synchronously.

[0035] Specifically, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first connecting member 46 is a rack and pinion, and the second connecting member 47 is a gear. The first connecting member 46 and the second connecting member 47 are meshed with each other. In use, the driving member 45 drives the first connecting member 46 to move and drives the second connecting member 47 and the clamping assembly 44 to rotate synchronously, thereby making the light strips 51 have the same direction. Precise angle control is achieved by setting the meshing transmission of the gear and rack. By designing a suitable gear module and number of teeth, it is ensured that the clamping assembly 44 rotates 180 degrees each time, so that the light strips 51 are completely consistent in direction. Moreover, by designing the gear and rack meshing transmission method, a large transmission and motion conversion can be achieved in a small space, so that the light strips 51 have the same direction after two transfers. This precise and stable flipping action ensures that the light strips 51 can be processed smoothly in subsequent processing, reducing downtime and adjustment time caused by inconsistent directions. This compact structural design allows the flipping assembly 4 to better adapt to the overall layout of the equipment, saving space. In addition, the structure of the gear and rack is relatively simple, easy to install and debug, reduces maintenance costs, and is easy to operate.

[0036] Furthermore, the clamping assembly 44 also includes a rotating frame 443 arranged along the Z-axis direction. One end of the rotating frame 443 is connected to the second connecting member 47, and the other end is rotatably connected to the first gripper 441 and the second gripper 442 respectively. By setting the rotating frame 443, it is ensured that the flipping action of the first gripper 441 and the second gripper 442 is closely matched with the rotation action of the gear, providing stable support and avoiding shaking during the flipping process.

[0037] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, both gripper 441 and gripper 442 are provided with meshing rotating teeth 444. At least one of gripper 441 and gripper 442 is provided with a pressing part 445. The support platform 43 is also provided with a driving member 48. The output shaft of the driving member 48 passes through the rotating frame 443 and abuts against the pressing part 445. In use, the driving member 48 operates, and the output shaft of the driving member 48 approaches and presses the pressing part 445. The rotating teeth 444 mesh with each other, causing gripper 441 and gripper 442 to move away from each other, thereby releasing the light strip 51. When the output shaft of the moving part 7 48 moves away from the pressing part 445, the first gripper 441 and the second gripper 442 can be reset under the action of gravity. In order to ensure that the reset is in place and thus not affect the interruption of the equipment, the first gripper 441 and the second gripper 442 are provided with springs 4411. One end of the spring 4411 is in contact with the first gripper 441, and the other end is in contact with the second gripper 442. The first gripper 441 and the second gripper 442 move closer to each other under the action of the spring 4411, thereby clamping the light strip 51, which facilitates the operation of flipping or transferring the clamped light strip 51.

[0038] Furthermore, the end of the first gripper 441 is provided with a first clamping plate 446, and the end of the second gripper 442 is provided with a second clamping plate 447. The first clamping plate 446 and the second clamping plate 447 are arranged in an L-shape to provide a larger contact area and clamping force, thereby enabling more stable gripping and fixing of the light strip 51, and realizing the loading and clamping of the entire row of light strips 51.

[0039] Preferably, such as Figure 4As shown, each of the clamping plates 446 and 447 has a number of corresponding grooves 49 on its opposite side. The distance between the grooves 49 is the interval between two adjacent light strips 51 in the same direction. The grooves 49 are adapted to the shape of the light strips 51, so that the light strips 51 can be accurately mounted on the clamping plates 446 and 447. By setting the grooves 49, the light strips 51 are prevented from shaking during the conveying process, thus preventing the light strips 51 from shifting. This ensures that the light strips 51 maintain a stable position during the gripping and conveying process, avoiding processing errors caused by positional deviations.

[0040] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, since the clamping assembly 44 needs to transfer the light strip 51 from the first position 41 to the second position 42, the driving assembly 6 includes a sliding plate 61, on which a driving component 62 is provided. The output shaft of the driving component 62 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 61 to drive the sliding plate 61 to move along the Z-axis.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 7-9 As shown, in order to achieve the flipping and gripping of the light strip 51, and to transport the light strip 51 from the first position 41 to the second position 42, the driving component 6 also includes a second sliding plate 63. The second sliding plate 63 is fixedly connected to the support platform 43. The second sliding plate 63 is provided with a first slider 631 and a sixth driving component 632. The first sliding plate 61 is provided with a second slide rail 611 adapted to the first slider 631. The output shaft of the sixth driving component 632 is fixedly connected to the second sliding plate 63 to drive the second sliding plate 63 to move along the Z-axis direction.

[0042] This utility model also discloses a light strip feeding device, such as Figure 2 As shown, a light strip flipping mechanism is included. The frame 1 is also provided with a material distribution mechanism 7, a folding mechanism 2 and a conveying mechanism 3. In use, the folding mechanism 2 breaks the light panel 5 into two rows of individual light strips 51 in different directions. The conveying mechanism 3 sends the broken light strips 51 to the flipping component 4. The light strip flipping mechanism grabs the entire row of light strips 51 and rotates them so that the light strips 51 are in the same direction.

[0043] Specifically, the frame 1 is provided with a slide rail 11.

[0044] like Figure 10 As shown, the light panel 5 includes light strips 51 and light edges 52, and the directions of adjacent light strips 51 are opposite. In this embodiment, the directions of adjacent light strips 51 are completely opposite, so the driving member 45 needs to drive the clamping assembly 44 to rotate by 180 degrees in order to ensure that the directions of the light strips 51 conveyed by the flipping assembly 4 are consistent in the two transmissions.

[0045] Specifically, such as Figure 11 As shown, the material distribution mechanism 7 includes a fixing member 71, which is fixedly connected to the frame 1. In this embodiment, there are two fixing members 71, and the distance between them is greater than or equal to the width of one light panel 5. A rotating wheel 72 is fixedly connected to the fixing member 71. The rotating wheel 72 is provided with a protrusion 721. In this embodiment, there are two protrusions 721, and the height between the two protrusions 721 is equal to the height of the stack of two adjacent light panels 5. At the same time, the two protrusions 721 are not on the same vertical plane. A swing arm 73 is provided on the two adjacent rotating wheels 72, which are set on different fixing members 71. The swing arm 73 swings to drive the rotating wheel 72 to rotate. In use, the operator places several light panels 5 on the material distribution mechanism 7. The rotation of the swing arm 73 drives the rotating wheel 72 to rotate, so that the two protrusions 721 contact the light panels 5 at intervals, so that the light panels 5 fall one after another onto the conveying mechanism 3.

[0046] Specifically, such as Figure 12 As shown, the conveying mechanism 3 includes a material picking component 31, a material folding component 32, and a material sorting component 33.

[0047] Furthermore, the material picking assembly 31 includes a material picking slide 311 and a second driving member 312. The material picking slide 311 is used to carry the lamp panel 5 falling from the material dispensing mechanism 7 and move it to the folding assembly 32. The material picking assembly 31 also includes a fifth slider 313. One side of the fifth slider 313 is fixedly connected to the material picking slide 311, and the other side is slidably connected to the first slide rail 11. The output shaft of the second driving member 312 is fixedly connected to the fifth slider 313 to drive the fifth slider 313 to move, thereby moving the material picking slide 311 and conveying the lamp panel 5 to the folding assembly 32.

[0048] Furthermore, such as Figure 12 As shown, the folding assembly 32 includes a folding slide 321, a lifting platform 322, and a driving component 323. The lifting platform 322 is used to move the folding slide 321 along the Z-axis, making it easier for the folding slide 321 to receive the light panel 5 conveyed from the picking slide 311, preventing the light panel 5 from falling during the conveying process due to collision. The folding assembly 32 also includes a slider 324. One side of the slider 324 is fixedly connected to the folding slide 321, and the other side is slidably connected to the slide rail 11. The output shaft of the driving component 323 is fixedly connected to the slider 324 to drive the slider 324 to move, thereby conveying the light strips 51 formed by the light panel 5 broken by the folding mechanism 2 to the material handling assembly 33.

[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 13 As shown, the folding mechanism 2 is disposed on both sides of the folding slide 321. The folding mechanism 2 includes a moving block 21 and a driving member 22. The output shaft of the driving member 22 is fixedly connected to the moving block 21 to drive the moving block 21 to the folding slide 321. The moving block 21 is provided with a clamping piece 23, a clamping rod 24, a rotating member 25, and a pressure plate 26. The pressure plate 26 can lift and lower to press and release the lamp panel 5. The clamping piece 23 is fixed to one end of the clamping rod 24 to hold the lamp panel. 5. Pressing: The rotating component 25 rotates, causing the clamping rod 24 and the clamping piece 23 to rotate. After repeated rotation, the lamp edge 52 of the lamp panel 5 is separated from the lamp strip 51, so that the entire lamp panel 5 is arranged in a row of several separate lamp strips 51 in opposite directions. The driving component 4 22 drives the moving block 21 to move away from the folding slide 321. The driving component 3 323 drives the folding slide 321 to move so as to transfer several lamp strips 51 to the material handling assembly 33.

[0050] Furthermore, the material handling assembly 33 includes a material handling slide 331 and a second lifting platform 332. The output shaft of the second lifting platform 332 is fixedly connected to the material handling slide 331 to drive the material handling slide 331 to rise and fall. During operation, the fourth driving member 22 drives the folding slide 321 to move directly above the material handling slide 331, the first lifting platform 322 drives the folding slide 321 to move downward, and the second lifting platform 332 drives the material handling slide 331 to move upward, thereby conveying two rows of light strips 51 in different directions to the material handling slide 331, realizing the conveying of the light strips 51.

[0051] Furthermore, the material handling slide 331 is provided with spaced steps 3311. By setting the steps 3311, the material handling slide 331 can automatically arrange the two rows of light strips 51 in different directions at different heights. At this time, the position of the material handling slide 331 is the first position 41, which is convenient for subsequent gripping and processing.

[0052] To facilitate subsequent processing, the light strips 51 need to be in the same direction. Therefore, when transferring rows of single light strips 51 in different directions on the feeding slide 331 in two separate transfers, the drive component 45 only needs to work once during the two transfers to drive the flipping component 4 to rotate, thereby causing the clamping component 44 to rotate at a certain angle so that the light strips 51 after the two transfers are in the same direction. This design reduces the need for manual adjustment due to inconsistent directions during the subsequent processing of the light strips 51, saving manpower and time, and improving the automation level of the equipment.

[0053] This utility model also discloses a light strip processing equipment, such as... Figure 1As shown, it includes a light bar feeding device and a processing turntable 8 disposed at the discharge end of the light bar feeding device.

[0054] The following is a detailed explanation of the working principle of this utility model;

[0055] In use, the folding mechanism 2 breaks the light panel 5 into two rows of individual light strips 51 in different directions. The conveying mechanism 3 sends the broken light strips 51 to the flipping component 4. The flipping component 4 grabs the entire row of light strips 51 and rotates them so that the light strips 51 are in the same direction. A driving component 6 is provided between the flipping component 4 and the frame 1. The driving component 6 drives the flipping component 4 to move between a first position 41 and a second position 42 along the Y-axis. The flipping component 4 includes a clamping component 44, which includes a first clamp 441 and a second clamp 442 that can be opened and closed. The support platform 43 is also provided with a first driving component 45 and a first connecting component 46 provided on the output end of the first driving component 45. The clamping component 44 is also provided with a second connecting component 47 that works with the first connecting component 46. The first driving component 45 drives the first connecting component 46 to move and drives the second connecting component 47 and the clamping component 44 to flip synchronously.

[0056] The innovation of this utility model lies in the use of gear and rack meshing. The drive component drives the rack to rotate, which in turn drives the gear to rotate, thereby achieving a certain angle of rotation of the clamping component and thus flipping the direction of the light strip. This ensures that the direction of the light strips after folding is the same. This structure is simple, greatly reduces manpower and material resources and the possibility of human error, and speeds up efficiency. It realizes fully automatic transmission, edge folding and splitting of light panels and flipping of light strip direction, which greatly improves work efficiency, facilitates maintenance and operation, and reduces costs.
