[0025] For details, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3This application provides a rotating feeding device, which includes a feeding mechanism 1, a rotating device 2, a clamping device 3, and a discharging mechanism 4. The rotating device 2 includes a drive gear 21, and the bottom of the clamping device 3 includes a driven gear disk 31. The drive gear 21 is meshed with the driven gear disk 31. The drive gear 21 rotates to drive the driven gear disk 31 to rotate so that the clamping device 3 is rotatably connected to the rotating device 2. The feeding mechanism 1 and the discharging mechanism 4 are respectively located on both sides of the rotating device 2. The material is conveyed to one side of the rotating device 2 by the feeding mechanism 1. The rotating device 2 drives the clamping device 3 to be positioned corresponding to the feeding mechanism 1 to clamp the material on the feeding mechanism 1. After the rotating device 2 drives the clamping device 3 to rotate by a first angle, it is positioned corresponding to the discharging mechanism 4 to place the material on the discharging mechanism 4.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, the rotating device 2 also includes a drive motor 22. The middle part of the drive gear 21 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 22, and the drive motor 22 is located below the clamping device 3. The drive motor 22 drives the drive gear 21 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear disk 31 to rotate. The driven gear disk 31 then drives the clamping device 3 to rotate. By controlling the rotation angle of the drive gear 21 according to the ratio of the number of teeth of the drive gear 21 to the number of teeth of the driven gear disk 31, the rotation angle of the clamping device 3 can be accurately controlled.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, the clamping device 3 further includes a gripper 32 and a gripper drive structure 33. The driven gear disk 31 is annular, and its inner side meshes with the drive gear 21. The gripper drive structure 33 is fixed on the driven gear disk 31, and the gripper 32 is connected to the gripper drive structure 33. The gripper drive structure 33 can drive the gripper 32 to open or close, thereby gripping and releasing materials.

[0028] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the gripper 32 includes a first gripper arm 321 and a second gripper arm 322 disposed opposite to each other. The root portions of the first gripper arm 321 and the second gripper arm 322 are respectively provided with a first inclined guide groove 323 and a second inclined guide groove 324. The first inclined guide groove 323 and the second inclined guide groove 324 are V-shaped. The gripper driving structure 33 includes a guide pushing block 331. The guide pushing block 331 has a first inclined guide block 332 and a second inclined guide block 333 on both sides. The first inclined guide block 332 and the second inclined guide block 333 are V-shaped. The first inclined guide block 332 is slidably connected to the first inclined guide groove 323, and the second inclined guide block 333 is slidably connected to the second inclined guide groove 324. When the guide pushing block 331 moves, it drives the first gripper arm 321 and the second gripper arm 322 located on both sides of the guide pushing block 331 to open or clamp.

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the gripper drive structure 33 also includes a translation drive structure connected to the guide push block 331. The translation drive structure includes a linear motor or a horizontal cylinder. By driving the guide push block 331 to move in the horizontal plane through the translation drive structure, the first gripper arm 321 and the second gripper arm 322 located on both sides of the guide push block 331 can be opened or clamped.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the feeding mechanism 1, the rotating device 2 and the unloading mechanism 4 are arranged in a straight line, and two clamping jaws 32 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the clamping device 3.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the feeding mechanism 1 includes a fixed base 11, a horizontal movement cylinder 12, a lifting cylinder 13, and a feeding tray 14. The rotating device 2 is installed inside the fixed base 11. One side of the fixed base 11 is connected to the horizontal movement cylinder 12. The lifting cylinder 13 is mounted on the horizontal movement cylinder 12, and the feeding tray 14 is mounted on the lifting cylinder 13. When the material is placed on the feeding tray 14, the horizontal movement cylinder 12 can be controlled to extend and retract to adjust the horizontal position of the material. The vertical position of the material can be adjusted by controlling the lifting cylinder 13 to raise and lower the feeding tray 14.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the feeding mechanism 4 includes a receiving base 41 and a pressing cover 42. The pressing cover 42 is detachably positioned above the receiving base 41, and the receiving base 41 is located adjacent to the rotating device 2. When material is transferred from the clamping device 3 to the feeding mechanism 4, the receiving base 41 can receive the material, and the pressing cover 42 can press the material onto the receiving base 41.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the pressure cover 42 includes a support column 421, a lifting drive structure 422, and a cover body 423. The support column 421 passes through the middle of the driven gear plate 31 and is connected to the fixed base 11. The lifting drive structure 422 is located on one side of the support column 421, and the cover body 423 is connected to the lifting drive structure 422.

[0034] Furthermore, the first angle is one of 180 degrees, 90 degrees, 60 degrees, and 45 degrees. It is understood that the first angle is preferably achieved by setting 2n grippers 32 on both sides of the clamping device 3, where n is an integer. Each pair of grippers 32 corresponds to one feeding mechanism 1 and one unloading mechanism 4, so that the grippers 32 are evenly distributed on the side of the clamping device 3. Thus, the first angle of rotation of the clamping device 3 by the rotating device 2 each time is 360 / 2n, which is one of 180 degrees, 90 degrees, 60 degrees, and 45 degrees.

[0035] The rotating feeding device provided in this application includes a feeding mechanism 1, a rotating device 2, a clamping device 3, and a discharging mechanism 4. The rotating device 2 includes a drive gear 21, and the bottom of the clamping device 3 includes a driven gear 31. The drive gear 21 and the driven gear 31 are meshed and connected so that the clamping device 3 is rotatably connected to the rotating device 2. The feeding mechanism 1 and the discharging mechanism 4 are respectively located on both sides of the rotating device 2. This allows the material to be picked up from the feeding mechanism 1 by the clamping device 3 and rotated at a first angle before being placed on the discharging mechanism 4. This achieves material rotation and placement, and the rotating device 2 can precisely control the rotation angle of the clamping device 3 to control the material rotation before feeding, thus reducing equipment costs.
