[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a new technical solution: a bidirectional flip-and-distribution device, including a base 1, an installation box 2 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base 1, four semi-circular grooves 3 in a rectangular array on the upper surface of the base 1, the front and back of the four semi-circular grooves 3 are open, and a rotating connecting rod 4 is rotatably installed on the front and back inner walls of the base 1, the front and back ends of the rotating connecting rod 4 respectively rotatably penetrate to the front and back surfaces of the base 1.

[0025] The flipping mechanism is set on the base 1. The flipping mechanism includes a flipping platform 5 and two connecting rods 6. Circular rods 7 are slidably inserted into the interior of each of the four semi-circular slots 3. The flipping platform 5 is fixedly installed on the front and rear surfaces of the four circular rods 7. The two connecting rods 6 are respectively fixedly installed on the front and rear ends of the rotating connecting rod 4. Mounting rods 8 are fixedly installed on the front and rear surfaces of the flipping platform 5. The upper ends of the two connecting rods 6 are respectively rotatably installed on the two mounting rods 8.

[0026] Furthermore, the flipping mechanism also includes two pin plates 9 and a sliding link 10. The two pin plates 9 are slidably installed on the left and right ends of the base 1, respectively. Two sliding grooves 16 are opened on both the left and right sides of the base 1. The near ends of the two pin plates 9 are slidably inserted into the interior of the four sliding grooves 16, respectively. The sliding link 10 is fixedly installed on the near surfaces of the two pin plates 9. The sliding link 10 passes through from the right surface of the mounting box 2 to the left surface of the mounting box 2.

[0027] Furthermore, by setting up the flipping platform 5, the drive motor 14 can drive the rotating connecting rod 4 to rotate, thereby enabling the flipping platform 5 to flip left and right. This allows the device to flip and sort items, perfectly realizing bidirectional distribution of items. This device can replace the simple distribution operation of the assembly line, improve efficiency, reduce labor costs for enterprises, and enhance the practicality of the device.

[0028] Furthermore, a sliding plate 11 is slidably installed inside the mounting box 2, and the sliding plate 11 is fixedly connected to the sliding connecting rod 10.

[0032] Furthermore, all components of this utility model device are mounted on the base 1, and the items are placed on the flipping platform 5. When it is necessary to flip the items to the left for sorting, the two electric push rods 12 are activated to drive the sliding plate 11 to move, thereby driving the sliding connecting rod 10, which is fixedly connected to its telescopic end, to move. This causes the two pin plates 9 to move to the right, and restricts the two circular rods 7 on the left side of the flipping platform 5 to be inside the two semi-circular grooves 3 on the left side of the base 1. At this time, the drive motor 14 is activated, driving the rotating connecting rod 4 to rotate, so that the flipping platform 5 connected to the connecting rod 6 flips to the left, and the items are sorted to the left. When flipping and sorting to the right, the steps are reversed. The speed of the moving pins and the flipping platform can be adjusted according to actual needs to achieve efficient sorting of items.
